The transported probability density function model combined with the consistent finite volume (FV) method has been applied to simulate the turbulent bluff-body reacting flows. To realistically account for the non-isotropic turbulence effects on the turbulent bluff-body reacting flows, the present PDF transport approach is based on the joint velocity- turbulent frequency-composition PDF formulation. The evolution of the fluctuating velocity of a particle is modeled by a simplified Langevin equation and the particle turbulence frequency is represented by the modified Jayesh - Pope model. Effects of molecular diffusion are represented by the interaction by exchange with the mean (IEM) mixing model. To validate this hybrid FV/PDF transport model, the numerical results are compared with experimental data for the turbulent bluff-body reacting flows.

The first-order conditional moment closure (CMC) model is applied to $CH_4$/Air turbulent jet diffusion flames(Sandia Flame D, E and F). The flow and mixing fields are calculated by fast chemistry assumption and a beta function pdf for mixture fraction. Reacting scalar fields are calculated by elliptic CMC formulation. The results for Flame D show reasonable agreement with the measured conditional mean temperature and mass fractions of major species, although with discrepancy on the fuel rich side. The discrepancy tends to increase as the level of local extinction increases. Second-order CMC may be needed for better prediction of these near-extinction flames.

The numerical methods including the performance analysis and the noise prediction of the centrifugal compressor impeller are coupled with the optimization design skill, which consists of response surface method, statistical approach, and genetic algorithm. The flow-field Inside of a centrifugal compressor is obtained numerically by solving Wavier-Stokes equations. and then the propagating noise is estimated from the distributed surface pressure by using Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings formulation. The quadratic response surface model with D-optimal 3-level factorial experimental design points is constructed to optimize the impeller geometry for the advanced centrifugal compressor. The statistical analysis shows that the quadratic model exhibits a reasonable fitting quality resulting in the impeller blade design with high performance and low far-field noise level. The influences of selected design variables, objective functions, and constraints on the impeller performance and the impeller noise are also examined as a result of the optimization process.

A disc spring consists of a conical disc. A load-displacement formula was newly developed in the form of energy method to consider both rigid and friction. The cross section of the disc spring has identical slope angles at the bottom of conical. To solve such a problem, an energy method calculation is proposed. To achieve the goal of this study, the proposed calculation is extended to a disc spring with friction. A firm basis background study based on Almen's work is presented in developing a new numerical approach to predict the available formulation for a disc spring with friction.

A numerical study is carried out on the detonation wave propagation through a T-shaped flame tube, which represents a crucial part of the combustion wave ignition (CWI) system aimed for simultaneous ignition of multiple combustion chambers by delivering detonation waves. The formulation includes the Euler equations and an induction-parameter model. The reaction rate is treated based on a chemical kinetics database obtained from a detailed chemistry mechanism. A second-order implicit time integration and a third-order TVD algorithm are Implemented to solve the theoretical model numerically. A total of more than two-million grid points are used to provide direct insight into the dynamics of the detonation wave. Several important phenomena including detonation wave propagation, degeneration, and re-initiation are carefully examined. Information obtained can be effectively used to facilitate the design and optimization of the flame tubes of CWI systems.

This paper shows the performance comparisons of several different rate scheduling schemes for non-real time data service over the uplink of burst switching-based direct sequencecode division multiple access (DS/CDMA) system to support the integrated voice/data service. The closed-form solution of optimal scheduling formulation, which minimizes average transmission delay when all of the active data users are transmitting simultaneously, is presented and mathematical analyses with other rate scheduling schemes, which provide efficiency criterion of transmission delay for rate scheduling schemes, are performed. Numerical results show the analyses explicitly.

An efficient domain/boundary decomposition method is applied for heat transfer problems with non-linear thermal radiation boundaries. The whole domain of solids or structures is considered as set of subdomains, an interface, and radiation interfaces. In a variational formulation, simple penalty functions are introduced to connect an interface or radiation interfaces with neighboring subdomains that satisfy continuity conditions. As a result, non-linear finite element computations due to the thermal radiation boundaries can be localized within a few subdomains or radiation interfaces. Therefore, by setting up suitable solution algorithms for the governing finite element equations, the computational efficiency can be improved considerably. Through a set of numerical examples, these distinguishing characteristics of the present method are investigated in detail.

This paper proposes a second-order implicit constraint enforcement method which yields enhanced controllability compared to a first-order implicit constraints enforcement method. Although the proposed method requires solving a linear system twice, it yields superior accuracy from the constraints error perspective and guarantees the precise and natural movement of objects, in contrast to the first-order method. Thus, the proposed method is the most suitable for exact prediction simulations. This paper describes the numerical formulation of second-order implicit constraints enforcement. To prove its superiority, the proposed method is compared with the firstorder method using a simple two-link simulation. In this paper, there is a reasonable discussion about the comparison of constraints error and the analysis of dynamic behavior using kinetic energy and potential energy.

To develop a new fish cage which is required for offshore or moving cage culturing system has been gradually increased against being closely dense of fish cage in shallow water. Though submersible fish cage culturing system is essential technology for converting from shallow water into the offshore, it was pointed out the serious problem about stability of which are sinking and floating state. This study is presented conceptual design of submersible fish cage centered with a mooring steel pile to acquire stability and faculty. Design of mooring steel pile for submersible fish cage culturing system needs to carry out optimal design of mooring steel pile for which much efforts are required. Formulation and optimal design process of submersible fish cage are organized into using Sequential Quadratic Programming method of numerical optimization. For submersible fish cage system centered with a mooring steel pile, process of the optimal design is proposed and the optimal solutions are obtained.

In this study non-linear finite element analysis of dynamic response of steel arch under partially distributed dynamic load was discussed. Material and geometric non-linearities were included in finite element formulation and steel behavior was modeled with Von Mises yield criteria. Either radial or vertical dynamic load was dealt in numerical examples. Normal arch and arch with maximum shape imperfection of L/11,000 were studied. The analysis results showed that maximum displacement at the center of arch was occurred when 70% of arch span was loaded. The maximum displacement at a quarter of arch span was occurred when 50% of arch span was loaded and the displacement was larger than that of center of arch. Ratio of arch rise to arch span within 0.2∼-.3 seems to be appropriate for arch under radial or vertical load.
