  • 재료의 마이크로 스케일 해석에서 결정의 geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) 효과에 의한 소성구배(plastic gradient)를 고려하는 것은 재료의 소성 거동을 분석하는데 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 먼거리(long range)에서 전위(dislocation)의 영향을 고려하는 GND의 효과를 적용하여 소성 구배의 영향을 받는 다결정(polycrystal) 고체의 거동을 유한요소해석을 이용하여 살펴보았다. 재료의 거동을 분석하기 위해 탄성(elastic)과 소성(plastic) 변형에 먼 거리 변형률(long range strain)을 고려한 항(term)이 포함된 변형 구배(deformation gradient)의 multiplicative decomposition 모델을 사용하였다. 먼 거리 변형률에 의한 영향을 고려하기 위해 구배 경화 계수(gradient hardness coefficient)와 먼 거리 변형률 길이에 대한 재료변수(parameter)가 사용되었다. 각각의 계수들이 다결정 고체의 거동에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 두 변수의 적용에 따른 다결정 고체의 거동을 분석하였다. 다결정 재료의 GND 효과에 의한 소성 구배 효과를 고려해서, 고려하지 않은 경우와 비교하여 발생하는 경화(hardening)의 차이를 분석함으로서 GND에 의한 다결정 고체 거동의 영향을 확인하였다.

  • To assess the performance of a structure requires the measurement of global and relative displacements at critical points across the structure. They should be obtained in real time and in all weather condition. A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) could satisfy the last two requirements. The American Global Position System (GPS) provides long term acquisitions with sampling rates sufficient to track the displacement of long period structures. The accuracy is of the order of sub-centimetres. The steel building which hosts the authors' laboratory is the reference case-study within this paper. First a comparison of data collected by GPS sensor units with data recorded by tri-axial accelerometers is carried out when dynamic vibrations are induced in the structure by movements of the internal bridge-crane. The elaborations from the GPS position readings are then compared with the results obtained by a Finite Element (FE) numerical simulation. The purposes are: i) to realize a refinement of the structural parameters which characterize the building and ii) to outline a suitable way for processing GPS data toward structural monitoring.

  • In general, long-term changes of ecological factors take a pulse form in which they interact with other factors and go through a repeated increasing and decreasing cycle. The coupling of the two approaches the grid model and the box model in ecological modeling can lead to an in-depth understanding of the environment. The study analyzes temporal variations of major storages with an energy system model that formulizes effectively the relationships among nutrients, phytoplankton, and zooplankton in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. An increase of light intensity and standing stock of nutrient increase the magnitude and frequency of pulsing. Also, an immense reduction of nutrient concentration can cause extinction of the pulsing and bring about a steady state. It is concluded that the nutrient loads in freshwater discharge from the Yangtze affect the cycles of major ecological components as well as water quality variables and play an important role in the marine ecosystem.

  • In this paper, we study the NvBAT treatment for AIDS patients that is combined with PI rather than RTI, while the Previous results have been focused on the NvBAT in conjuction with RTI. To this end, we obtain a bifurcation diagram which shows a change in the equilibrium points, and in their stability properties as the PI drug effect is varied. Based on the bifurcation diagram, we show that the NvBAT can be combined with drug PI for the treatment of AIDS patients. Various computer simulation results are included, which show the superiority of the NvBAT with PI over that with RTI. Accordition to simulation result, the NvBAT combined with PI is able to keep virus load level lower than that combined with RTI, which is crucial to avoid the emergence of drug-resistant mutants. Moreover, it is shown that, for some AIDS patients, NvBAT with RTI cannot make patients into long term non-progressor, while NvBAT with PI can.

  • This paper presents an experimental comparison between the conventional generation expansion planning and DSM incorporated one. As a DSM measure, diffusion of high efficient end-uses is considered and its impact will be targeted at the strategic energy conservation. A revised probabilistic production simulation is proposed by modifying the equivalent load duration curve (ELDC) with the capacity deconvolution of DSM end-use. To investigate long-term DSM impacts relative to the conventional planning, WASP model is applied and the effectiveness of DSM planning as an electricity resources is demonstrated.

  • A three-dimensional numerical simulation is performed to investigate on a low Reynolds number mixed convection in a horizontal rectangular channel with the upper part cooled and the lower part heated uniformly. The three-dimensional governing equations are solved using a finite volume method. For convective term, the central differencing scheme is used and for the pressure correction, the PISO algorithm is used. Solutions are obtained for A=4, Pr=0.72, 10, 909, the Reynolds number ranging from $2.1{\times}10^{-2}$ to $1.2{\times}10^{-1}$, the Rayleigh number is $3.5{\times}10^4$. It is found that vortex roll structures of mixed convection in horizontal rectangular channel can be classified into three roll structures which affected by Prandtl number and Reynolds number.

  • This paper explores the ways by which the authority concerned with nuclear energy policy-making in Korea can strengthen its organisational sustainability from long-term perspective. In doing so, it applies the system dynamics approach to predict what would happen to the organisational sustainability of the nuclear energy authority in the future. In the process of analysis, it also draws causal loop map of components contained in the simulation model and constructs user-interface simulation model. It shows different predicted future values regarding organisational sustainability of the nuclear energy authority in Korea and puts forward some policy implications for practitioners and academics involved in nuclear energy policy.

  • Loss of human lives and properties including environmental damage due to large scale accidents requires change of our perception to marine safety. IMO is trying to re-establish overall marine safety system through long term plan such as GBS. Along this line, current regulation based safety evaluation is in process of changing into performance based methods, and for this transition, simulation based safety evaluation during design stage considering damage is highly necessary. In this paper, first, damage scenario is developed from IMO regulations and accident case studies. Then an integrated and simulation based safety evaluation prototype system considering both damage stability and structural safety is developed for the use during ship design process.

  • Human Resource Planning and Management(HRPM) is to make organization efficiently and effectively. Based on Promotion and Aging Chain Model, a revised personnel management prediction simulation is established in terms of mid- and long-term organizational changes, annual budget and personnel strategy including a promotion, aging and laying off for the best personnel architecture in organization. Also, the model is possible to find a solution for increasing the organizational capacity. An empirical application to quasi-governmental organization proceeded to testing and validating the model.
