The non-cavitating noise of underwater propeller is considered numerically in this study. The main purpose is to analyze non-cavitating noise from underwater propellers in various operating conditions with different configurations. Noise is predicted by using time-domain acoustic analogy, boundary element method, and computational hydro-acoustics. The flow field is analyzed with potential-based panel method, and then time-dependant pressure data are used as the input for Focus Williams-Hawkings formulation to predict far field acoustics. Furthermore, boundary element method and computational hydro-acoustics are also considered to investigate duct propeller and ducted multi-stage propeller to consider the reflection and diffraction of sound waves. With this methodology, noise intensity and directivity of each noise sources could be well analyzed.

For the circuit modeling of th ecoplanar waveguide (CPW) discontinuities, th eequivalent inductance is analyzed via the 3-dimensional boundary element method. The proposed method utilizes the magnetic scalar potential to obtain the magnetic flux passing sthrough the air-dielectric interfaces of the coplanar waveguide. The boundary integral is simplified by use fo the symmetry when the substrate is composed of the nonmagnetic material. In the numerical analysis, linear basis function and the collocationscheme are employed. The short-end and the step discontinuities are cahracterized through the calculations of the equivalent inductance andd the capacitance. The present method avoids the usual vector formulation and is quite advantageous in the quasi-staic characterization of the CPW disconditnuities.

Modern engineering design problems involve complexity of disciplinary coupling and difficulty of problem formulation. Multidisciplinary design optimization can overcome the complexity and design optimization software or frameworks can lessen the difficulty. Recently, a growing number of new multidisciplinary design optimization techniques have been proposed. However, each technique has its own pros and cons and it is hard to predict a priori which technique is more efficient than others for a specific problem. In this study, a software system has been developed to directly solve MDO problems with minimal input required. Since the system is based on MATLAB, it can exploit the optimization toolbox which is already developed and proven to be effective and robust. The framework is devised to change an MDO technique to another as the optimization goes on and it is called a reconfigurable MDO framework. Several numerical examples are shown to prove the validity of the reconfiguration idea and its effectiveness.

The first diagonal cracking and ultimate shear load of reinforced girder made of ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) were investigated in this paper. Eleven girders were tested in which eight girders failed in shear. A simplified formulation for the first diagonal cracking load was proposed. An analytical model to predict the ultimate shear load was formulated based on the two bounds theory. A fiber reinforcing parameter was constituted based on the random assumption of steel fiber uniform distribution. The predicted values were compared with the conventional predictions and the test results. The proposed equation can be used for the first cracking status analysis, while the proposed equations for computing the ultimate shear strength can be used for the ultimate failure status analysis, which can also be utilized for numerical limit analysis of reinforced UHPFRC girder. The established fiber reinforcing theoretical model can also be a reference for micro-mechanics analysis of UHPFRC.

In this paper, we present the analysis of electromagnetic scattering from arbitrarily shaped three-dimensional conducting objects coated with dielectric materials. The integral equation treated here is the combined field integral equation(CFIE). The objectives of this paper is to illustrate that only the CFIE formulation is a valid methodology in removing the interior resonance problem, which occurs at a frequency corresponding to an internal resonance of the structure. Numerical results of radar cross section for coated conducting structures are presented and compared with other available solutions.

This paper presents an efficient improvement of the iterative eigenvalue calculation method of the AESOPS algorithm. The intuitively and heuristically approximated iterative eigenvalue calculation method of the AESOPS algorithm is transformed to the Second Order Newton Raphson Method which is generally used in numerical analysis. The equations of second order partial differentiation of external torque, terminal and internal voltages are derived from the original AESOPS algorithm. Therefore only a few calculation steps are added to transform the intuitively and heuristically approximated AESOPS algorithm to the Second Order Newton Raphson Method, while the merits of original algorithm are still preserved.

In recent times, the subterranean caverns for storing crude oils and oil products are increasingly needed. The elasto-VIScoplastic DYNamic finite element analysis program(VISDYN) has been developed in order to investigate dynamic responses of the storage cavity. And validity of the program is studied through a numerical example. Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion is adopted and associated flow rule is assumed. Geometrically nonlinear behaviour is taken into account using a total Lagrangian formulation. In dynamic deformation reponses, the difference between the steady state displacements and the unsteady state ones by the static analysis can be neglected.

The study aimed to determine the optimal mixing ratio of two different amounts of Letinus edodes powder and egg for preparation of pasta. The complete analysis was conducted using the Design Expert 7 program (State-Easy, Minneapolis, MN). Response surface methodology revealed 10 experimental points, including two replicates for L. edodes powder and egg. L. edodes pasta formulation was optimized using rheology. Lightness and redness displayed a lineal model pattern, whereas yellowness was represented by a quadratic model. The sensory evaluation parameters of texture, color, flavor, appearance and overall quality showed significant differences for color (p<0.01), flavor (p<0.05), texture (p<0.05) and overall quality (p<0.05). All sensory parameters showed significant values in a quadratic model. The optimum formulations processed by numerical and graphical optimization were determined as 15 g of L. edodes powder and 37.5 g of egg.

An implicit turbulent flow solver is developed for 2-D unstructured hybrid meshes. Spatial discretization is accomplished by a cell-centered finite volume formulation using an upwind flux differencing. Time is advanced by an implicit backward Euler time stepping scheme. Flow turbulence effects are modeled by the Spalart-Allmaras one equation model, which is coupled with wall function. The numerical method is applied for flows on a flat plate, the NACA 0012 airfoil, and the Douglas 3 element airfoil. The results are compared with experimental data.

In this paper, geometrically non-linear finite element analyses were performed to study the mechanical behavior of the material system of the envelope of stratospheric airships. The microstructure of the load­bearing plain weave layer was identified and modeled. The Updated Lagrangian formulation was employed to consider the geometric non-linearity as well as the induced structural non-linearity for the fiber tows. The stress-strain behavior was predicted and the effective elastic modulus was calculated by numerical experiments. It was found the non-linear stress-strain curves were largely different from those by linear analysis with much higher non-linear elastic moduli. The difference was more distinguishable when the tow waviness was smaller.
