The aging fishery training vessels from the past have mostly been decommissioned, and many universities are introducing state-of-the-art large fishery training vessels. The purpose of these training vessels is to train marine professionals and above all, safety to prevent marine accidents should be of utmost priority as many students embark on the vessel. This study estimated the impact of the hydrodynamic interaction forces acting on the model vessel (fishery training vessel) from the bank when the vessel pass near the semi-circle bank wall in various conditions through the numerical calculation, especially concerning maneuvering motions of the vessel. For estimation, variables were mainly set as the size of the semi-circle shape, the lateral distance between the bank and the model vessel, and the depth near the bank. As a result, it was estimated that, in order for the model vessel to safely pass the semi-circle bank wall at a speed of 4 knots, the water depth to the vessel draft ratio should be 1.5 or more (approximately 8 m of water depth), and the lateral distance from the semi-circle bank wall should be 0.4 times the model vessel’s length    or more (a distance of 34 m or more). Under these conditions, it was expected that the model vessel would pass without significantly being affected by the bank wall.

본 연구에서는 Froude 수 1.0, 길이 약 10 m 급 소형 고속선의 저항성능과 승선감을 향상시키기 위해 선미 끝단에 트림 탭을 부착하여 항주자세를 제어하였고, 트림 탭의 제원에 따른 성능을 확인하기 위해 CFD 해석을 수행하였다. 먼저 선행 연구로부터 수치 해석이 수행되는 스케일에 따라 결과에 차이가 있는 것이 확인되었고, 이를 피하고자 실선 스케일에서의 해석을 수행하였다. 부착된 트림 탭의 코드 길이는 LPP의 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 %였으며, 선저 면과의 각도는 5 간격으로 변화를 주었다. 트림 탭은 선박의 선미트림과 부상량을 감소시키는 효과가 있었으며, 이 효과는 트림 탭의 선저 면과의 각도가 클수록, 코드 길이가 길수록 증가하였다. 이로 인해 압력 저항은 감소하고 전단저항은 증가하였으며, 두 성분의 변화량에 따라 전 저항 저감율이 결정되었다. 결과로부터 대상 선박의 최적 항 주자세는 약 1.5 의 선미트림으로 특정되었고, 이때 저항성능은 약 27 % 개선되었다.

Load carrying capacity(LCC) can be reduced from its design value as a result of film thickness change when a journal is misaligned and some part of bearing is unintentionally translated. In this study, the numerical solution of the incompressible Reynolds equation was obtained by using the finite difference method and mass conservation algorithm (JFO boundary condition) with periodic pressure distribution in circumferential direction to analyze the change of LCC due to journal misalignment and step change of film thickness in axial direction for a journal bearing of vertical pumps. Smallest LCC in each eccentricity ratio is obtained as two angular positions are changed – an angular position where misalignment occurs, and another angular position where the axial step takes place while the degree of misalignment is fixed at 90%. Compared with the reaction force of plain journal bearing, the LCC reduced as much as 26.7% due to geometric effects of journal bearing at the eccentricity ratio of 0.9, while the step height is no higher than 0.1 times of bearing clearance.

강한 지진의 영향에 있는 레디얼 게이트에 작용하는 동수압 산정을 위한 계산 모형이 제시되었다. 지진동으로 움직이는 구조물의 영향을 호소부와의 이동경계면으로 처리함과 아울러 강한 지진동 효과를 고려하여 동적 레이어링법이 적용된 ALE 알고리즘과 호소부 자유수면 거동을 위한 SIMPLE법을 사용하는 것이 제안된다. 제안된 방법은 단순한 수직 또는 경사 댐체 벽면에 대하여 널리 알려진 실험 결과 및 그로부터 유도된 제안식과 비교하여 타당성과 유효성이 증명되었다. 계산 모형에서 사용할 호소부 상류부 측의 무한경계까지의 거리를 산정하기 위한 파라미터 분석을 수행하여 호소부 수위의 2배가 최적의 길이임을 관찰하였다. 마지막으로 제안된 계산 모형을 사용하여 여러 곡률의 대형 레디얼 게이트에 작용하는 지진 동수압을 성공적으로 산출하였다.

Dentin hypersensitivity is an abrupt intense pain caused by innocuous stimuli to exposed dentinal tubules. Mechanosensitive ion channels have been assessed in dental primary afferent neurons and odontoblasts to explain dentin hypersensitivity. Dentinal fluid dynamics evoked by various stimuli to exposed dentin cause mechanical stress to the structures underlying dentin. This review briefly discusses three hypotheses regarding dentin hypersensitivity and introduces recent findings on mechanosensitive ion channels expressed in the dental sensory system and discusses how the activation of these ion channels is involved in dentin hypersensitivity.

본 논문은 Shaped charge jet(SCJ)의 관통 과정을 유한요소해석을 통해 모사하여 제트 입사속도, 관통률 그리고 관통량 증분과 같은 물리량들을 획득하였다. 이 물리량들을 hydrodynamic 이론에 적용하여 입사 제트 속도의 효율을 분석한 결과, 입사 속도가 빠른 제트의 관통 효율은 이어지는 느린 제트에 비해 높은 것을 확인하였다. 이 효율은 hydrodynamic limit (HL) 미만인 제트인 경우 큰 폭으로 감소하였다. 한편, 시간에 따른 관통량 증분과 제트 소모량의 비교는 SCJ의 이론적인 관통현상 분석을 위해서는 길이 연장 효과를 고려해야함을 보였다.

Recently, copper alloy netting has been proposed as a material for aquaculture facilities that can be set in harsh offshore environments. To design a cage made of copper alloy netting, it is necessary to calculate the flow of water through the netting and force of external sources on the netting. Therefore, this study measured and analyzed the current velocity reduction after passing through the netting and the hydrodynamic forces acting on the netting using copper alloy netting with nine solidity ratios. As a result of the reduction rate of the flow velocity through the netting, the flow reduction rate was increased as the solidity ratio of netting was increased. The flow reduction rate was also increased as the attack angle on the netting was decreased. In analyzing the resistance on the netting, we also discovered that resistance was increased with increase in the flow velocity and solidity ratio. An analysis of the hydrodynamic coefficient acting on the netting is shown that the drag coefficient tends to increase as the attack angle increases. We also analyzed the hydrodynamic coefficient according to the variation of the Reynolds number. When the drag coefficients acting on the netting were analyzed with the different Reynolds numbers, the Reynolds number increased from over 0.3 m/s to a relative constant. Finally, the copper alloy nettings had a smaller velocity reduction rate when comparing the flow velocity reduction rate between copper alloy nettings and nylon nettings.
