When the stagnation temperature of a perfect gas increases, the specific heats and their ratio do not remain constant any more and start to vary with this temperature. The gas remains perfect; its state equation remains always valid, except, it is named in more by calorically imperfect gas. The aim of this work is to trace the profiles of the supersonic axisymmetric Minimum Length Nozzle to have a uniform and parallel flow at the exit section, when the stagnation temperature is taken into account, lower than the dissociation threshold of the molecules, and to have for each exit Mach number and stagnation temperature shape of nozzle. The method of characteristics is used with the algorithm of the second order finite differences method. The form of the nozzle has a point of deflection and an initial angle of expansion. The comparison is made with the calorically perfect gas. The application is for air.

Compressible, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in two dimension is studied through high-resolution, numerical simulations with the isothermal equation of state. First, hydrodynamic turbulence with Mach number $(M)_{rms}\;\~$1 is generated by enforcing a random force. Next, initial, uniform magnetic field of various strengths with Alfvenic Mach number Ma $\gg$ 1 is added. Then, the simulations are followed until MHD turbulence is fully developed. Such turbulence is expected to exist in a variety of astrophysical environments including clusters of galaxies. Although no dissipation is included explicitly in our simulations, truncation errors produce dissipation which induces numerical resistivity. It mimics a hyper-resistivity in our second-order accurate code. After saturation, the resulting flows are categorized as SF (strong field), WF (weak field), and VWF (very weak field) classes respectively, depending on the average magnetic field strength described with Alfvenic Mach number, $(Ma)_{rms}{\ge}1$, $(Ma)_{rms}{\~}1$, and $(Ma)_{rms}{\gg}1$. The characteristics of each class are discussed.

The present work is to estimate the stability region of the State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) controlled system, which is used for a decentralized coordinated attitude control in satellite formation flying. In this research, currently emerging methods which estimate region of attraction for the SDRE controllers are introduced and the methods are applied to attitude control systems. The results guarantee the stability of the given decentralized coordinated attitude control system in satellite formation flying.

편대비행 위성이 공동의 임무를 수행하기 위해서는 편대를 이루는 위성의 각기 다른 초기 오차와 다양한 외란 환경에서도 자세 동기화를 이룰 수 있는 기법이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 편대비행위성의 자세 동기화를 위하여 비선형 시스템에 대한 준최적 제어기법인 SDRE(State-Dependent Riccati Equation)에 기반한 추적 제어기가 사용되었다. 반작용 휠이 포함된 위성의 자세 동역학이 SDRE 추적 제어기를 구성하는데 이용된다. 이를 Leader/Follower 편대비행 시스템에 적용하며, 기준 자세를 추적하는 Leader 위성의 자세를 Follower 위성이 추적하여 자세 동기화를 이룰 수 있다. MATLAB과 SIMULINK를 이용한 수치해석적 시뮬레이션으로 추적 제어기의 성능을 검증하였으며, 이에 대한 실시간 HIL(Hardware-In-the-Loop) 시뮬레이션이 수행되었다. 무중력 환경을 모사하는 에어베어링시스템과 세 개의 반작용 휠을 장착한 자세제어 HILS(Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulator)는 PC104 타입의 임베디드 컴퓨터에서 SIMULINK의 xPC Target을 이용한 실시간 시뮬레이션 환경을 제공하며, 이에 적용되는 SDRE 추적 제어기는 이산화되어 설계되었다. 또한 SDRE 추적 제어기에 대한 안정성을 보장하는 영역이 추정되어 위 추적 제어기가 위성 편대비행에 적합한 자세 동기화 기법임을 보였다.

This work presents an active vibration control of a stiffened hull structure using a flexible macro fiber composite(MFC) actuator. As first step, the governing equation of the hull structure is derived in a matrix form and its dynamic characteristics such as natural frequency are obtained via a finite element analysis(FEA). The natural frequencies obtained from the FEA are compared with those determined from experimental measurement. After formulating the control model in a state space representation, an optimal controller is designed in order to attenuate the vibration of the stiffened hull structure. The controller is then empirically realized through dSPACE and control responses are evaluated in time domain.

The study of the mechanical behavior of rockfill materials under three-dimensional loading conditions is a current research focus area. This paper presents a microscale numerical study of rockfill deformation and strength characteristics using the Combined Finite-Discrete Element Method (FDEM). Two features unique to this study are the consideration of irregular particle shapes and particle crushability. A polydisperse assembly of irregular polyhedra was prepared to reproduce the mechanical behavior of rockfill materials subjected to axial compression at a constant mean stress for a range of intermediate principal stress ratios in the interval [0, 1]. The simulation results, including the stress-strain characteristics, relationship between principal strains, and principal deviator strains are discussed. The stress-dilatancy behavior is described using a linear dilatancy equation with its material constants varying with the intermediate principal stress ratio. The failure surface in the principal stress space and its traces in the deviatoric and meridian plane are also presented. The modified Lade-Duncan criterion most closely describes the stress points at failure.

We reconstruct the expansion history of the universe using type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) in a manner independent of any cosmological model assumptions. To do so, we implement a nonparametric iterative smoothing method on the Joint Light-curve Analysis (JLA) data while exploring the SN Ia light-curve hyperparameter space by Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. We test to see how the posteriors of these hyperparameters depend on cosmology, whether using different dark energy models or reconstructions shift these posteriors. Our constraints on the SN Ia light-curve hyperparameters from our model-independent analysis are very consistent with the constraints from using different parameterizations of the equation of state of dark energy, namely the flat ΛCDM cosmology, the Chevallier-Polarski-Linder model, and the Phenomenologically Emergent Dark Energy (PEDE) model. This implies that the distance moduli constructed from the JLA data are mostly independent of the cosmological models. We also studied that the possibility the light-curve parameters evolve with redshift and our results show consistency with no evolution. The reconstructed expansion history of the universe and dark energy properties also seem to be in good agreement with the expectations of the standard ΛCDM model. However, our results also indicate that the data still allow for considerable flexibility in the expansion history of the universe. This work is published in ApJ.

The present article reports extensive numerical results on the non-local characteristics of ultra-short pulsed laser-induced breakdowns of fused silica ($SiO_{2}$) by using the multivariate Fokker-Planck equation. The nonlocal type of multivariate Fokker-Planck equation is modeled on the basis of the Boltzmann transport formalism to describe the ultra-short pulsed laser-induced damage phenomena in the energy-position space, together with avalanche ionization, three-body recombination, and multiphoton ionization. Effects of electron avalanche, recombination, and multiphoton ionization on the electronic transport are examined. From the results, it is observed that the recombination becomes prominent and contributes to reduce substantially the rate of increase in electron number density when the electron density exceeds a certain threshold. With very intense laser irradiation, a strong absorption of laser energy takes place and an initially transparent solid is converted to a metallic state, well known as laser-induced breakdown. It is also found that full ionization is provided at intensities above threshold, all further laser energy is deposited within a thin skin depth.

본 논문에서는 이동최소자승법을 이용한 근사모델을 사용하여 신뢰성 최적설계를 수행하였다. 신뢰성 최적설계의 수행을 위한 반응표면 생성에는 RSM 과 Kriging이 사용될 수 있다. RSM은 계산시간은 빠르나 비선형성이 강한 문제에 약하며 Kriging은 비선형성이 강한 문제에 적용할 수 있으나 계산시간이 오래 걸리는 단점이 있다. 이 두 방법을 보완한 방법인 이동최소자승법(MLSM)을 이용하여 신뢰성 최적설계를 위한 반응표면을 생성하였다. 이동최소자승법을 이용한 신뢰성 최적설계기법은 Rosenbrock function 과 six-hump carmel back function으로 검증하였고 다른 기법과 비교하였다. 이동최소자승법을 이용하여 무인항공기 배기 덕트의 신뢰성 최적설계를 수행하였고 이는 항공우주구조물의 최적설계에 유용할 것으로 보여 진다.

원심 압축기의 원판 마찰 손실은 동력 손실의 한 종류로써, 원심 압축기의 전체 효율 향상을 위해 원판 마찰 손실을 줄여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 원심 압축기의 임펠러 디스크 면과 케이싱 사이의 축 간격 및 표면 조도 변화에 따른 원판 마찰 손실을 분석하였고, 원판마찰손실 저감을 위한 새로운 이론식을 제안하고자 한다. 원심 압축기 임펠러의 정상상태 해석을 위해서 상용 전산해석 코드인 FLUENT의 회전 좌표계와 2-equation k-${\omega}$ SST 모델을 사용하였다. CFD 해석 결과, 원심압축기 임펠러의 원판 마찰 손실은 축 간격의 변화보다는 표면조도의 변화에 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었다. 원심압축기 임펠러의 원판 마찰 손실을 최소화하기 위해서 축 간격은 이론적인 경계층 두께와 동일하도록 설정하고 표면조도는 최소화해야 한다.
