본 연구에서는 토사 유동과 같은 대변형 해석을 위해 기존 유한요소법이나 유한차분법과 달리 격자를 사용하지 않는 입자법을 사용하였으며, 입자법은 구배, 발산, 라플라시안과 같은 미분연산자에 대응하는 입자간 상호작용모델을 이용하여 연속체의 지배방정식을 이산화하였다. 외부 하중이나 함수비 증가에 따라 고체에서 유체 상태로 변하는 흙의 3차원 대변형 거동을 해석하기 위해 기존 입자법에 흙의 파괴상태를 고려할 수 있는 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴기준을 도입하였으며, 흙의 파괴 이전의 항복이나 경화현상으로 인한 대변형은 흙을 점성 유체로 가정하여 해석하였다. 개발된 입자법은 먼저 구속압이 작용하지 않고 강도가 0인 모래기둥 붕괴실험 결과를 이용하여 검증한 다음, 점착력을 가지고 자립이 가능한 점토기둥 붕괴실험을 실시하여 흙의 항복이나 파괴로 인한 대변형을 시뮬레이션하였다. 개발된 입자법은 모래와 점토의 3차원 대변형 거동을 유사하게 잘 예측하였으며, 파괴 이전에 발생하는 흙의 항복으로 인한 소성변형에 따른 흙기둥 내의 수직 및 전단응력 변화도 계산할 수 있었다.

침전지는 수처리 공정에서 중요한 조작 중 하나이며, 침전지내에서는 응집과 침전이 일어남에 따라 입자의 크기분포가 변하는 복잡한 현상이 발생한다. 따라서 침전지의 효율적인 설계나 운영을 위해서는 이러한 현상에 대해 이해해야만 하며, 침전효율의 극대화를 위한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 침전지내의 흐름을 모의하기 위하여 범용 CFD 프로그램인 FLUENT를 이용하였으며, 침전효율을 평가하기 위하여 FLUENT에서 제공되는 입자추적기법을 사용하였다. 또한 침전지의 형상을 지나치게 단순화시키는 기존의 연구와는 달리 본 연구에서는 실제 현장에서 사용되는 규모와 침전지내 인자들 (유입부 정류벽, 유출부 트라프 등)이 수치모의에 최대한 반영되었으며, 현장실험의 결과를 바탕으로 민감도 분석을 수행해 수치모의에 사용되는 매개 변수들을 보정하였다. 민감도 분석 결과 입자의 직경이 입자의 밀도에 비해서 민감도가 큰 것으로 나타났고, 침전효율이 실헐결과와 가장 잘 일치할 때의 직경값을 결정해본 결과 입자의 직경값이 26.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 $TiO_2$ 입자를 얻을 수 있는 침전법을 이용하여 $TiO_2$ 입자를 제조하였다. $TiO_2$ 입자 제조시 사용되는 알콜 용매의 종류와 온도 변화 등의 매개변수가 $TiO_2$ 입자의 결정 구조, 입자의 크기 및 형태에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $TiO_2$ 입자제조시 용매로 사용한 알콜 종류인 methyl alcohol, iso-propylalcohol, 그리고 tert-butylalcohol를 scanning electron microscope(SEM) 분석한 결과 iso-propylalcohol이 가장 좋은 결과를 가져왔다. 그리고 온도 변화를 열분석법을 사용한 결과 $200^{\circ}C$에서 $500^{\circ}C$까지는 아나타제 구조를 유지하였으나, $800^{\circ}C$에서는 루틸 구조로 전환되었다.

PURPOSES : Determination of particle packing model variables that can be used for formulation of new DEM based particle packing model by examining existing particle packing models METHODS : Existing particle packing models are thoroughly examined by analytical reformulation and sensitivity analysis in order to set up DEM based new particle packing model and to determine its variables. All model equations considered in this examination are represented with consistent expressions and are compared to each others to find mathematical and conceptual similarity in expressions. RESULTS : From the examination of existing models, it is observed that the models are very similar in their shapes although the derivation of the models may be different. As well, it is observed that variables used in some existing models are comprehensive enough to estimate particle packing but not applicable to DEM simulation. CONCLUSIONS : A set of variables that can be used in DEM based particle packing model is determined.

The effect of particle size of raw material on the field of extract and changes in composition of Ssang Wha Tang was investigated during manufacturing. As the size of particle was decreased the yield was increased. The yield of extract increased as much as double times as the diameter of the particle decreased from 10 m to 1 m. But the composition of extract was not varied much as the diameter of the particle differed. From these results, it is concluded that cutting method affects the productivity of Ssang Wha Tang.

In this paper, we proposed an emulsification method without using an emulsifier and investigated the effects of particle size distribution in fluids on dispersion stability. Surfactant-free oil in water emulsion was prepared with 1 % (w/w) of olive oil by using high speed agitation, high pressure and ultrasonic dispersion methods. The particle size, microscopic observation, and dispersion stability of each sample were evaluated and dispersion stability according to various dispersion methods was compared. As a result, the emulsion dispersed by the ultrasonic dispersion method showed the smallest particle size and uniform distribution of $0.07{\sim} 0.3{\mu}m$ and was the most stable in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the above experiment, four olive oil emulsions having different particle sizes were prepared using ultrasonic dispersion technology that was capable of producing stable emulsions. The dispersion stability of each samples with oil droplet sizes of (A) 0.1 to $0.5{\mu}m$, (B) 0.3 to $4{\mu}m$, (C) 1 to $10.5{\mu}m$ and (D) 2 to $120{\mu}m$, was observed for 7 days, and the relationship between the stability and performance was studied. Emulsion (A) with particle size less than $0.5{\mu}m$ displayed the dispersion stability showing below 5 % change in a 7 days stability evaluation. In the case of (B), (C), and (D) that had larger particle than $0.5{\mu}m$, the changes of dispersion stability were 10 %, 13 % and 35 % respectively. From these results, it was proved that dispersion stability of emulsion with uniform particle size of $0.5{\mu}m$ or less was confirmed to be very stable.

Purpose: The problem of optimizing redundancy allocation in multi-level systems is considered when each item in a multi-level system has alternative items with the same function. The number of redundancy of multi-level system is allocated to maximize the reliability of the system under path set and cost limitation constraints. Methods: Based on cost limitation and path set constraints, a mathematical model is established to maximize system reliability. Particle swarm optimization is employed for redundant allocation and verified by numerical experiments. Results: Comparing the particle swarm optimization method and the memetic algorithm for the 3 and 4 level systems, the particle swarm optimization method showed better performance for solution quality and search time. Particularly, the particle swarm optimization showed much less than the memetic algorithm for variation of results. Conclusion: The proposed particle swarm optimization considerably shortens the time to search for a feasible solution in MRAP with path set constraints. PS optimization is expected to reduce search time and propose the better solution for various problems related to MRAP.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is used as a scaffold for cell culture. Because both the stress and strain acting on the substrate and the hemodynamic environment are important for studying mechano-transduction of cellular function, the traction force of the surface of a substrate has been measured using fluorescence images of particle distribution. In this study, deformation of the cross-sectional plane of a PDMS block was measured by correlating particle image distributions to validate the particle image strain measurement technique. Deformation was induced by a cone indentor and a shearing parallel plate. Measured deformations from particle image distributions were in agreement with the results of a computational structure analysis using the finite-element method. This study demonstrates that the particle image correlation method facilitates measurement of deformation of a polymer scaffold in the cross-sectional plane.

A three stage impactor with the cutoff diameters of 1, 2.5, and 10$\mu\textrm{m}$ in aerodynamic diameter was developed and tested. The gravimetric method and the particle counting method were utilized to evaluate the collection performance of each stage. A vibrating orifice aerosol generator was employed to generate monodisperse test aerosols larger that 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ in diameter. Polystyrene latex (PSL) particles smaller than 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ in diameter were generated by an atomizer and the particle number concentration was measured by an Aerodynamic Particle Sizer Spectrometer. The experimental cutoff diameters obtained from the particle collection efficiency curves are in good agreement with the designed values. The square roots of Stokes number at 50% collection efficiency for stage 1, 2, and 3 are 0.42, 0.48, and 0.45, respectively. Effects of the particle bounce and the impaction plate on the collection efficiency were investigated. The collection efficiency curves including effect of the particle bounce were also compared with those of the MOUDI cascade impactor.

Particle Image Velocimetry combined with developed image processing method is adopted to study the liquid-solid two phase flow in the centrifugal pump impeller with crystallization phenomenon. The tracer particle is used to follow the liquid phase, which has the diameter between 8 to $12{\mu}m$. The crystal particle precipitates from the sodium sulfate solution does change the wavelength of the laser, and which has great laser scattering characteristics. The diameter of the crystal particle is larger than $20{\mu}m$. Through calculating the diameter of the particles in the image, the tracer particle and the crystal particle can be distinguished. By analyzing the experimental result, the following conclusion has been obtained. During the delay period, there is not any crystal particle and the pump performance has not been changed. As the crystallization process begins, the crystal nuclei appears from the supersaturation solution and grows larger with temperature decreasing, which has the tendency of moving towards the pressure side. The characteristics of liquid-solid two phase flow with crystallization phenomenon in the pump are obtained according to analysis of experimental results, and some guiding advices are presented to mitigate the crystallization phenomenon in pump impeller.
