  • Borehole tests are commonly used as a tool to obtain the physical properties of soils and rocks. The results of borehole tests are, however, discontinuous. Interpolation methods are applied to interpret the data gap between the borehole test points. The interpolation is valid only if the horizontal variations of the ground between the test points are small enough to ignore. A surface wave inversion method was used to study the S wave velocity of the very soft soil to provide the continuous 2 dimensional S wave velocity structure. The resolution of the S wave velocity structure was used to interpret the inversion results.

  • The main purpose of this study lies on the improvement of micro dilution tunnel based on the typical porous tube type chamber. The characteristics of flow and temperature fields for steady state has been obtained by numerical analysis using FLUENT. Three different geometrical variations of the porous tube; a) increase of thickness at center, b) step increase of thickness at center and downstream, c) tapered increase of thickness, have been proposed. Accordingly results are obtained and compared in terms of penetration velocity and velocity ratio to therrmophoretic velocity for improvement against particulate deposition inside the tube. The penetration velocity and velocity ratio distributions in the upstream portion and portion of impinging of dilution air are apparently shown to be improved for the case of the step and tapered change of porous tube. The tapered change of tube thickness addition are shown to be the most effective among three geometrical changes. In addition, the considerable improvement against deposition are shown that its thickness should be at least 2mm.

  • Small-scale shear flows are ubiquitous in the universe, and astrophysical plasmas are often magnetized. We study the thermal condensation instability in magnetized plasmas with shear flows in relation to filamentary structure formation in cool structures in the universe, representatively solar prominences and supernova remnants. A linear stability analysis is extensively performed in the framework of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with radiative cooling, plasma heating and anisotropic thermal conduction to find the eigenfrequencies and eigenfunctions for the unstable modes. For a shear velocity less than the Alfven velocity of the background plasma, the eigenvalue with the maximum growth rate is found to correspond to a thermal condensation mode, for which the density and temperature variations are anti-phased (of opposite signs). Only when the shear velocity in the k-direction is near zero, the eigenfunctions for the condensation mode are of smooth sinusoidal forms. Otherwise each eigenfunction for density and temperature is singular and of a discrete form like delta functions. Our results indicate that any non-uniform velocity field with a magnitude larger than a millionth of the Alfven velocity can generate discrete eigenfunctions of the condensation mode. We therefore suggest that condensation at discrete layers or threads should be quite a natural and universal process whenever a thermal instability arises in magnetized plasmas.

  • Aerodynamic performance tests and flow measurement were carried out for several radial impellers of NACA 65-810 airfoil. The data base obtained are to be used for verifying the methods of flow analysis and CFD codes. The effects of numbers and span of blades on the performances, efficiency and impeller exit flow are investigated in the present study. The flow rate on the performance curve is proportional to the span of the blade for the same value of fan pressure rise. The magnitude of radial velocity component at the impeller exit gradually decreases from the hub to shroud side. The magnitude of tangential velocity component gradually increases from the hub to shroud side. The way of variations of velocity is the same at the diffuser exit, however, becomes more uniform. The pressure rise performance increases with blade number at the small flow coefficients, however, decreases with the number of blade at the large flow coefficients. This shows that flow guidance in important at the low flow rate and the friction becomes significant at the high flow rate.

  • Recently, the social and environmental functions of nature river are important due to the increase of expectation for river restoration. So it should be considered the effect of vegetation affecting the conveyance capacity and hydraulic resistance. However, it has not yet proposed a objective standard and modeling method to estimate the effect of conveyance capacity according to vegetaion distribution in the watercourse such as water level or velocity. Therefore, this study simulates the variations of water level and velocity using 3-dimensional hydrodynamic model, EFDC, to consider a conveyance capacity in downstream of the Soyang Reservoir. The simulation results were validated using statistical index such as F-test and T-test. As results, the water level rises about 0.01 to 0.47m and velocity difference are about -0.95m/s to 0.23m/s.

  • The aspects of Omega phase prediction are briefly reviewed, and Swanson's Model and Pierce's Model are presented. The equations for the Omega phase prediction and the most probable coefficients of the propagating equations are derived on the base of Pierce's Model by the least square method. The coefficients are calculated from the data which are the phase differences between the pairs of the Station A (Aldra, Norway), C(Haiku, Hawaii), and D(La Mour, North Dakota) observed at Busan Harbor of the South Coast of Korea in June and September, 1976. It is clearly shown that the standard deviations of the observed lane values at Busan Harbor are as followed: 1. June, 1976. Pair (A-C) : 0.1446 Pair (C-D) : 0.2598 2.September, 1976. Pair (A-D) : 0.3958 Pafr (C-D) : 0.3278 As a conclusion of the above investigation, it is shown that the Omega phase velocity can be predicted by the method, proposed in this paper, of analyzing the diurnal and seasonal variations of the Omege phase velocity except SID, PCD and AZD. If more observed data are employed, more exact Omega phase velocity is expected to be obtained.

  • The destructive method is reliable and widely used for the estimation of material degradation but, it have time-consuming and a great difficulty in preparing specimens from in-service industrial facilities. Therefore, the estimation of degraded structural materials by nondestructive evaluation is strongly desired. In this paper, the use of guided wave was suggested for the evaluation of thermally damaged 2.25 Cr-lMo steel as an alternative way to compensate for limitations of fracture tests. The observation of microstructure variations of the material including carbide precipitation increase and spheroidization near grain boundary was conducted and the correlation with the guided wave features such as energy loss ratio and group velocity changes was investigated. Through this study, the feasibility of ultrasonic guided wave evaluation for thermally damaged materials was explored.

  • Aerodynamic characteristics of a wing during fold motion were investigated in order to understand how variations or changes in such characteristics increase aircraft performance. Numerical simulations were conducted, and the results were obtained using the unsteady vortex lattice method to estimate the lift, drag and the moment coefficient in subsonic flow during fold motion. Parameters such as the fold angle and the fold angular velocity were summarized in detail. Generally, the lift and pitching moment coefficients decreased as the angle increased. In contrast, the coefficients increased as the angular velocity increased.

  • We present the result of a long-slit spectroscopic study of DG Tau, which is known to emanate parsec-scale outflows. To study the kinematics and physical properties of the jet, we obtained the optical emission lines of $H{\alpha}$, [OI], [NII], and [SII] from HH 158 and HH 702 using the long-slit spectrograph at Bohyunsan Optical Astronomical Observatory. HH 158 shows the peak radial velocity in a range of ~ - 270 to - 30 km s-1. HH 702, located at 11' away from DG Tau shows the velocity of ~ - 80 km s-1. The proper motion velocities of detected knots are estimated through the comparisons with the locations of those knots in the previous studies. We also examine the variations of physical parameters depending on the velocity distribution and the distance from the source using line ratio maps derived from obtained forbidden emission lines.

  • This paper presents a velocity regulation scheme for a DC motor subjected to random torque and velocity measurement noises of white noise type as well as unknown constant load torque (bias). The scheme separately estimates an unknown bias in addition to state estimation by the bias-free Kalman Filter, and reflects the effect of the bias estimate to the armature input voltage such that velocity variations be regulated. It is shown via computer simulations that the performance of the present scheme is superior to that of the conventional analog PI regulator.
