This study has been performed to predict the transient thermal behavior of the plate in indirectly-fired continuous heat treatment furnace. The temperature profiles in the plate are determined solving the transient one-dimensional heat conduction equations. To verify the validity of the present numerical results, the present results obtained from the transient analysis are compared with those of experiments. Extensive parametric investigations are performed to examine the effects of the emissivities of the plate and refractory, plate thickness and velocity, as well as the gas temperature, on the thermal behavior of the plate.

In this paper, we consider Bayesian approaches to partially linear models, in which a regression function is represented by a semiparametric additive form of a parametric linear regression function and a nonparametric regression function. We make a comparative study on the performance of widely used Bayesian partially linear models in terms of empirical analysis. Specifically, we deal with three Bayesian methods to estimate the nonparametric regression function, one method using Fourier series representation, the other method based on Gaussian process regression approach, and the third method based on the smoothness of the function and differencing. We compare the numerical performance of three methods by the root mean squared error(RMSE). For empirical analysis, we consider synthetic data with simulation studies and real data application by fitting each of them with three Bayesian methods and comparing the RMSEs.

In a compressor, highly impulsive pressure fluctuations induced by a reciprocating piston and valves cause noise and vibration to be so critical issues that low noise requirement always challenges engineers developing it. A muffler is frequently used for reducing these impulsive noise components, but has adverse effects on compressor's performance due to additional pressure drop and heat transfer of refrigerant when it pass through the muffler. In this study, compressible full 3-dimensional CFD simulations are performed to investigate both of flow and acoustic performances of a muffler in use for compressors. On a basis of the analysis results, a parametric study using design factors introduced to improve flow and acoustic performances of the existing muffler is carried out. Finally, improved designs are suggested to confirm the current results.

Chowdbury. H.는 인체를 다수의 원형 실린더로 단순화하여 스키점프와 사이클 운동복의 항력계수를 각각 측정하였다. 이처럼 원형 실린더에 스피드 스케이팅 운동복을 씌운 모습과 골프공에서 사용하는 딤플의 2차원 형상이 서로 유사한 모양임을 착안하여, 2차원 원형 실린더 표면의 딤플이 유동 현상에 어떤 효과를 일으키는지 살펴보았다. 본 연구에서는 초기 형상을 토대로 3가지 딤플 형상 변수에 대한 매개변수 설정을 통해 항력계수를 비교하였다. 또한 3가지 딤플 형상 중 가장 낮은 항력계수를 갖는 딤플 형상에 대해서 요철 높이에 따른 항력계수를 비교하였다. 이를 통하여 딤플 형상이 각진 모양보다 둥근 모양일수록 항력계수가 작은 것을 확인하였으며, 요철 높이를 제외한 모든 조건이 동일할 때 최적의 요철 높이가 존재할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A major source of the hazardous waste generated is from chemical industries producing plastics, herbicides, pesticides and chlorinated solvents. All of these processes produce a class if hazardous waste termed the chlorinated hydrocarbons(CHCs), either directly or from undesirable side reactions. In this study, we investigated the destruction characteristics of hazardous waste through incineration. A nonequilibrium combustion model was used to describe the effect of the chemical kinetics due to the flame inhibition characteristics of $CCl_4$ which was used as the surrogate of hazardous waste. A parametric screening studies was made in a dump incinerator proposed in this study. The dump incinerator showed high $CCl_4$ DRE(Destruction and Removal Efficiency) as 5 nines. $CCl_4$/CH$_4$ ratio appeared to be most important in the destruction of $CCl_4$ through incineration.

A numerical procedure for dynamic analysis of structures including lateral-torsional coupling, axial force effect and soil-structure interaction is presented in this study. A simple soil-structure system model has been designed for microcomputer applications capable of reflecting both kinematic and inertial soil-foundation interaction as well as the effect of this interaction on the superstructure response. A parametric study focusing on inertial soil-structure interaction is carried out through a simplified nine-degree of freedom building model with different foundation conditions. The inertial soil-structure interaction and axial force effects on a 20-storey building excited by an Australian earthquake is analysed through its top floor displacement time history and envelope values of structural maximum displacement and shear force.

In this study, an analytical solution of pre-buckling, buckling, post-buckling, ultimate strength and post-ultimate strength behaviour of simply supported rectangular plates subjected to biaxial compression is derived. Parametric study with varying the aspect ratio, the slenderness ratio and the loading ratio is carried out. The present solution may be used as basical data when the verfication of the numerical and experimental result is made.

This study investigates the simultanceous heat and mass transfer between a falling desiccant film and air in cross flow at the interface. The application of this work is the optimization of falling film evaporators for use in potential hybrid air conditioning systems. The specific geometry considered is liquid TEG films falling along the vertical cooled surfaces of a channel with air in cross flow. The equations to describe the coupled heat and mass transfer between a falling desiccant film and air in cross flow for a falling film evaporator have been presented and solved numerically. The effects of important design and operating variables on the evaporator performance predicted by the parametric numerical analysis and suggestions for performance improvements of the evaporator are presented.

This study describes the aging behavior of soils and its mechanism, which have been reported in the literatures mainly by Mitchell(1986) and Schmertmann(1991). It could be known that aging of soils has both positive and negative effects on mechanical properties of soils. In order to show aging effects on dam behavior, a parametric study was carried out based considering the presence of a weak area within clay core zone of the fill dam. From the comparison of results obtained from numerical analysis and filed investigation, age-softening phenomena occurred within core zone during about 30 years after its completion.

This paper evaluates the effects of topographical and geotechnical irregularities on the dynamic response of the 2-D soil-structure systems under ground motion by coupling finite and infinite elements. A numerical procedure is employed, and a parametric study is carried out for single-faced slope topographies. It is concluded that topographic conditions may have important effects on the ground motion along the slope. The geotechnical properties of the soil will also have significantly amplified effects on the whole system motion, which cannot be neglected for design purposes. So, dynamic response of a soil-structure systems are primarily affected by surface shapes and geotechnical properties of the soil. Location of the structure is another parameter affecting the whole system response.
