Full textThe purpose of this PhD is the implementation of an axial polynomial approximation in a three-dimensional Method Of Characteristics (MOC) based solver. The context of the work is the solution of the steady state Neutron Transport Equation for critical systems, and the practical implementation has been realized in the Two/three Dimensional Transport (TDT) solver, as a part of the APOLLO3® project. A three-dimensional MOC solver for 3D extruded geometries has been implemented in this code during a previous PhD project, relying on a piecewise constant approximation for the neutrons fluxes and sources. The developments presented in the following represent the natural continuation of this work. Three-dimensional neutron transport MOC solvers are able to produce accurate results for complex geometries. However accurate, the computational cost associated to this kind of solvers is very important. An axial polynomial representation of the neutron angular fluxes has been used to lighten this computational burden.The work realized during this PhD can be considered divided in three major parts: transport, acceleration and others. The first part is constituted by the implementation of the chosen polynomial approximation in the transmission and balance equations typical of the Method Of Characteristics. This part was also characterized by the computation of a set of numerical coefficients which revealed to be necessary in order to obtain a stable algorithm. During the second part, we modified and implemented the solution of the equations of the DPN synthetic acceleration. This method was already used for the acceleration of both inners and outers iteration in TDT for the two and three dimensional solvers at the beginning of this work. The introduction of a polynomial approximation required several equations manipulations and associated numerical developments. In the last part of this work we have looked for the solutions of a mixture of different issues associated to the first two parts. Firstly, we had to deal with some numerical instabilities associated to a poor numerical spatial or angular discretization, both for the transport and for the acceleration methods. Secondly, we tried different methods to reduce the memory footprint of the acceleration coefficients. The approach that we have eventually chosen relies on a non-linear least square fitting of the cross sections dependence of such coefficients. The default approach consists in storing one set of coefficients per each energy group. The fit method allows replacing this information with a set of coefficients computed during the regression procedure that are used to re-construct the acceleration matrices on-the-fly. This procedure of course adds some computational cost to the method, but we believe that the reduction in terms of memory makes it worth it.In conclusion, the work realized has focused on applying a simple polynomial approximation in order to reduce the computational cost and memory footprint associated to a Method Of Characteristics solver used to compute the neutron fluxes in three dimensional extruded geometries. Even if this does not a constitute a radical improvement, the high order approximation that we have introduced allows a reduction in terms of memory and computational times of a factor between 2 and 5, depending on the case. We think that these results will constitute a fertile base for further improvements

In this thesis, we investigated the Adiabatic, Theta, and Multigrid Amplitude Function (MAF) methods for solving the Method of Characteristics (MOC) formulation of the time-dependent neutron transport equation. The transient transport versions of the 2D LRA and C5G7 benchmarks were used to assess the performance and accuracy of these methods. We began by deriving the CMFD-accelerated MOC algorithm in 2D steady state form and examining the effects of various MOC and CMFD parameters on eigenvalue convergence. The C5G7 problem showed similar acceleration performance for 2, 4, and 7 CMFD energy group structures. CMFD meshes at or near the pin-cell level resulted in the greatest speedups of 15-45x in run time and 30-240 x in number of MOC iterations for both problems. A relaxation factor on the nonlinear diffusion coefficient was required to maintain stability for both problems with optimum values between 0.4-0.7. A sensitivity study was conducted on the C5G7 and LRA transient problems to understand the effects of time step and spatial mesh sizes on the solution accuracy and run time performance. The shape function time step size had a large effect on the solution accuracy for the MAF and Theta methods in solving the LRA problem. All methods showed moderate sensitivity to the amplitude function step size, where increasing step size shifted the peak power to earlier times. The coarse mesh size did not have a significant effect on solution accuracy, but meshes on the pin-cell level were clearly preferred to reduce run time. The overall run time performance between the three methods was mixed. The MAF and Theta methods displayed ~84% speedup over the Adiabatic method for the LRA problem, but all methods had similar run times for the C5G7 problem. This inconsistency is likely due to the more drastic flux shape change during the LRA transient and the ability of the MAF and Theta methods to more accurately treat the flux shape temporal derivative. These results demonstrate that the Adiabatic, Theta, and MAF methods are computationally efficient methods for solving the time-dependent neutron transport equation and warrant further investigation. There are clear advantages to each method and the optimal method will likely depend on the transient characteristics of the problem being studied.

In the graphic design or the product shape of the design process, an effective graphical aesthetic evaluation tools can assist the designers to make decision in design process. The existing entropy of evaluation method which most commonly used are still not incapable to recognize and assessing the shape efficiently because of lack of project analysis and less reference for identification. The graphics cannot be effective for aesthetic evaluation and identification, therefore, to explore more graphic aesthetic analysis project can provide more graphics and aesthetics reference. This study is to improve the existing method of entropy and to propose a new graphical style characteristics evaluation method that can be applied to evaluate the characteristics of 2D graphics features as a reference to quantitative benchmarks pf graphic design decisions; The purpose is to simplify the calculation by the linear structure analysis point conversion rule will be converted into a collection of graphic pattern feature point shape feature points (SFP); and then, the effect of the elements and proportions, as well as elemental analysis pattern feature set of points generated. Eight graphics are taken to evaluate the aesthetic characteristics and composition of the evaluation contains four patterns: linear complexity H(t), the complexity of the feature point H(p), the location of the complexity H(r), the graphic complexity H(s);and mechanical features for four graphic assessment: balance I(b), the degree of motion I(m), the smoothness of the I(s) and the elasticity intensity of the graphic I(t) et cetera. By using the strength of the performance of each characteristic values can be used to describe the aesthetic expression pattern. Whereby the difference between the graphics can be easily identified and isolated. Finally the eight cases of the trademark graphic feature value of the evaluation, from the result shows that this method can effectively evaluate graphical features, the strength of each characteristic values can help the graphic designers to interpret the differences of the graphics based on the degree of approximation or make decision based on the graphic design work.

The purpose of this study is to propose a quick and efficient method to assist for the manufacturing process improvement, especially, for facilitating mass production smoothly during the new product developing stage. The research employs Taguchi Quality Engineering & Fuzzy Sets Theory to analyze each quality characteristic in the SMT processes. The integration of Principal Component Analysis & Grey Relational Analysis is used for analyzing synthetically Multiple Quality Characteristics (MQC) to obtain the optimal process parameter combinations for the control factors. Thus, it aims to create one algorithmic model, which can gain the best parameter combinations efficiently to meet the design specification, for the optimization of the MQC process as well as for the engineer to follow up while handling this kind of issue. In the experimental verification, there are two methodologies applied: one is fuzzy judgment data (Qualitative Measurements); another is practical measurement data (Quantitative Measurements). Finally, this research compares these two methodologies and concludes that the fuzzy judgments can replace the practical measurements. For example, (1) The profile/resolution of solder printing can be used to represent the “soldering thickness” and replace the practical thickness measurement. (2) The visual inspection of the “printing deviation” in terms of semantic values can be used to determine the degree of deviation instead of the practical measurement. The replacements mentioned without the precise inspection facilities but the fuzzy judgments by the engineer or inspector, still won’t impact the selection of the optimal parameter combinations.

In this thesis, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) materials with different preparation methods will be discussed. After different process treatments, we choose two types of metal Mo and Ni/Au which are used to fabricate the contact metal pad and compared the electrical effects of these process. In recent years, many studies have used exfoliation to fabricate molybdenum disulfide devices and developing many research methods to improve the electrical properties of MoS2 devices. Although this preparation way is extremely quick, convenient and the process is simple, but the MoS2 film area is very tiny and the material thickness is not uniform. Above characteristics make it difficult to apply on the industrial chain of mass production. Therefore, this work will use the recently popular molybdenum disulfide material synthesis method- chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and another two-step MoS2 synthesis method to make electrical comparisons, we will separate two parts to carry out: (1) 2-step method MoS2 device was subjected to an induce couple plasma (ICP) pretreatment and an annealing process, respectively. (2) CVD MoS2 FET is covered SiO2 capping layer on channel and executed annealing process. It is desirable to improve the sheet resistivity (rSH) and contact resistance (RC) of the MoS2 device. The results show that the 2-step method MoS2 device has a very high rSH and RC values after ICP pretreatment and high temperature annealing, which is close to the insulator state due to high defect density. The capping layer of the CVD MoS2 FET improves the ID-VG electrical properties of the device. There is also improved electrical performance after annealing at 300 °C. From the above experimental results, we can summarize that in the initial process step, we need to choose a MoS2 material with high quality, low defect and low rSH. And avoiding the degradation of MoS2 material by environment and process in the subsequent process. It is the most essential procedure in manufacture a good electrical MoS2 devices.

This work aims to develop the design method for the copper gong that has the special sound characteristics. The copper gong is a kind of traditional instrument. There are various types and shapes for gongs which percussion sounds reveal different characteristics for different geometries and dimensions. First, experimental modal analysis (EMA) is conducted on a hand-made copper gong to obtain structural modal parameters, including natural frequencies, mode shapes and modal damping ratios. The finite element (FE) model is also built to perform theoretical modal analysis. Base on the experimental modal data, the FE model is updated by adjusting the material properties for the stiffen effect of material due to manufacturing. The percussion sound spectrum is also measured by the microphone for the gong struck at different locations. The fundamental and overtone frequencies can be identified and explained by the structural mode shapes. A special type of copper gong with oval navel is also studied to characterize the sound effects for different geometry parameters. The optimization formulation for geometry design of copper gong targeting to special sound effects is presented in conjunction with the commercial finite element analysis (FEA) software. This work develops a systematic design approach, in particular for the design of copper gongs. Several design options can be implemented to fit the need for adjusting the sound characteristics of gongs. The design methodology can also be applied to other musical instruments as well, especially for those requiring special sound effects.

Abstract The precursor powders including Zn and Sn ion with different molar ratios solution were utilized to synthesize Zn2SnO4 (ZTO) with NaOH as a basic mineralizer via hydrothermal method. Under low temperature 250oC and high pressure for 72 hours reaction time, the solution in a sealed autoclave presented supercritical condition to make the Zn and Sn ion precursor reaction. The solution was heated to form high nano-crystalline ZTO powder. The crystal structure of experimental results is investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The synthesized powders with Zn/Sn molar ratios 2.5:1 showed high crystalline ZTO nanoparticles. From the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, the cubic surface morphology of ZTO powders can be observed. The particles were relatively uniform and well-dispersed. The Zn/Sn molar ratio 2.5:1 sample showed Raman spectra peak of 528cm-1 and 668cm-1 that the ZTO sample had a spinel structure. Powders obtained from different Zn/Sn molar ratios were used in degradation reaction with methyl blue as indicator. The Zn/Sn molar ratio 2.5:1 sample appeared the best photocatalytic activity. Ternary oxide of Zn2SnO4 is relatively superior photocatalytic activity to the binary oxide of ZnO and SnO2. In another study, precursor solution in different reaction time (12~96h) were utilized to synthesize ZTO with hydrothermal temperature 250oC, Zn/Sn molar ratio 2.5:1 and NaOH as a basic mineralizer. The result is found that the ZTO powder obtained with reaction time 72h showed higher crystalline nanoparticles and the best photocatalytic activity. Keywords: hydrothermal method, Zn2SnO4 (ZTO), mineralizer, photocatalytic activity, spinel.

This research mainly analyses and improves the characteristics of a single-phase induction motor via finite element software Flux2D supplied by PEEI. Because the output torque of this motor is small but the temperature is rising fast, it is required to improve its torque output with relative low temperature rising. The research employs Flux2D to create geometry model of the motor, to set up the circuit, and to analyze the temperature and torsion characteristic of the motor, via changing primary factors such as the circles of winding, capacitor, airgap and thickness of the core. The simulated results were then compared with the experiment results. There is discrepancy between them but the trends of curve are very similar. The simulated results are hence of important reference. The improvement of torque and temperature is then studied. At last, with the Taguchi method, the best achievable values of temperature and torque are estimated. This research provides a method to the analysis and improvement of the motor characteristics by Flux2D. This method can be used by industry for identifying and modification of motor characteristics.

The effects of type and concentration of surfactants on emulsification properties and diesel engine emission characteristics of an emulsion prepared by a phase-inversion temperature method were investigated in this study. Non-ionic surfactants were used for the emulsion formation of silicon oil with de-ionic water at the first experimental stage. The engine performance and emission characteristics of soybean biodiesel, and emulsions prepared by mechanical stirring and phase-inversion temperature methods, respectively under constant engine torque and varied engine speeds were studied at the second experimental stage. The experimental results show that the emulsion prepared by the method of phase-inversion temperature had higher O2 emission, NOx emission and exhaust gas temperature while lower CO emission than the emulsion by mechanical stirring. The soybean biodiesel was found to have the lowest fuel consumption rate, brake specific fuel consumption, and CO emission while the highest exhaust gas temperature, NOx emission, and O2 emission among those three fuels.

The purpose of this study is to synthesize the yttrium stabilized zirconia with ordered mesoporous structure by the sol-gel method. The effect of surfactant concentration, aged environment, surfactant mixing time and thermal treatment temperature on the pore formation is studied. The experimental results show that when taking non-ionic tri-block copolymer surfactant (P123) as template, porous structure of yttrium stabilized zirconia can be synthesized under 40℃ and 40% relative humidity environment followed by a 700℃ heat treatment. The diffraction peak at 2θ = 0.24 observed by small angle x-ray diffraction method indicates the existence of ordered internal pore structure arrangement. Based on the results of nitrogen isotherm adsorption-desorption measurements and Barrett-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Barrett-Joyner-Halanda (BJH) theories, the mesoporous structure with average pore size of 6.74 nm can be estimated. The absorption-desorption curves suggest that the material pore structure is channel structure with approximate BET surface area value of 94.24 m2/g. Other results such as the effect of amounts of surfactant on the micelle formation mechanism is clearly observed; Both BET surface area and average pore diameter markedly increase under atmospheric curing conditions; The average pore size increases with increasing surfactant mixing time and heat treatment temperature while the BET surface area decreases. After TEM observation, the morphology of yttrium stabilized zirconia porous structure prepared in this study is channel structure.

In the framework of specified time interval scheme, the accuracy of characteristics method is severe affected by the form of interpolation. The HP and CS characteristics methods are two types of high-order characteristics method that respectively apply Hermite cubic and cubic-spline interpolation. In this study, one-dimensional advection -diffusion equation and one-dimensional unsteady open channel flow computation are used to examine the high-order characteristics methods applied within space-line and time-line intervals. As far as practical applications and accuracy are concerned. The space-line HP and CS characteristics methods should be the better choices. The simulated results from the space-line CS characteristics method are similar to those of space-line HP characteristics method. Without tackling auxiliary spatial derivative equation, the space-line CS characteristics method is more simple and efficient than space-line HP characteristics method.

To provide data of regional strata in Shanzongliao (Taitung County, Taiwan)in more detail, the earth electrical logging method applied in geophysical explorations was used in this study to compensate for the current borehole deficiencies and limitations. The Wenner array in the earth electrical logging method was employed to perform a stratigraphic profile analysis of the Shanzongliao landslide areas in Chishang Township, Taitung County. Survey points and survey lines were set up by incorporating data derived from geological boring and inclination observation tubes. 15 survey points along six survey lines were established in the Shanzongliao landslide areas. Each survey point measured approximately 30 m in depth, from which data obtained using the earth electrical logging method were used to generate ρa-a curves; the curve characteristics were then analyzed. Next, the collected data was utilized to plot the 2D stratigraphic profile by the software for stratigraphic structure analysis. Finally, the research results were compared with data obtained from boreholes and inclination observation tubes for verification. The whole process validated the advantages of the earth electrical logging method: quick, convenient, and non-destructive. By combining it with relevant data, further insight into strata information can be obtained; meanwhile, groundwater distribution and relevant effects can be further investigated. Field observations showed that some areas in the landslide region are characterized by loose, fragmented strata structures and an abundance of groundwater, which highly increase the possibility of landslide destructions. However, Analysis of the aforementioned region showed that there are still slow and stable land movements in some areas of the region. Therefore, continuous monitor or regulative engineering must be in place to enhance the conservation.

The energy was getting short in recent years, causing the product price to rise. To research and develop the vicarious energy is getting more and more important, of which the first choice is the solar energy. Presently, the main way to produce silicon wafer, which is the major substrate of solar cells, is multi-wire sawing technology. The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze free vibration for the wire when cutting is in progress. At first, we derived the hyperbolic vibrating partial differential equation of wire for wiresaw, and solved the hyperbolic vibrating partial differential equation by method of characteristics. Simulation was conducted with parameters provided by A-TECH SYSTEM Co., Ltd. and the results were used to analyze the influences of wire speed, wire tension, initial conditions and boundary conditions on wire vibration.

In order to verify the FEM simulation results of the mechanical parameters such as Young’s modulus, yield stress and strain hardening, and the experimental data are compared with the results of the current simulation. The abductive network was then applied to synthesize the data sets obtained from the numerical simulation. The predicted results of the mechanical properties from the prediction model are consistent with the results obtained from experiment. After employing the predictive model can provide valuable references in prediction of the mechanical parameters after nanoindentation tests. We used finite element method to is it keep mark test consumed time and metal mechanical range too big to select suitable materials difficult characteristics to avoid, can predict and analyzed the mechanical characteristics of the metal in the finite element method accurately by one kind of abductive network. But the simulation that does with finite element analysis presses the mark and tests the after treatment materials and trains the database for abductive network, because the experiment load curve has not conformed with imitate the load curve trend, and not enough to laminate, then in order to analyze the mechanical characteristics of the metal effectively , utilize two ways separately, attempt to be estimated the mechanical nature of analyzing the metal in advance by these two ways, but the time that its main purpose consumes in order to utilize the finite element in a large amount sparingly, effective and accurate mechanical characteristics and hardness of metals in advance.

As two bodies approach each other along the normal direction, very high pressure is generated in the lubricating film between them due to squeeze effects. In consequence, an elastic dimple occurs at the center of the contact region, with related transient elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems. These problems occur in many mechanical contact elements such as gear teeth, cams, piston rings, rolling element bearings and during the stretching process of metal sheets. The laser optical system is employed in the optical EHL impact tester to measure the oil film characteristics in the contact region between steel ball and sapphire under pure squeeze condition. The variation of oil film thickness on the contact region is observed by the principle of optical interferometry and grayscale interferometry technique. High-speed video camera with the microscope records the dynamic characteristics of lubrication in the diminutive contact region. An inverse approach of pure squeeze EHL is employed to calculate the smoothed pressure and the oil film distribution, and they are substituted into Reynolds equation to predict the pressure-viscosity index of lubricant. The least-squares method is employed to calculate the optimum value of the pressure-viscosity index. Results show that the dimple becomes deeper with increasing squeeze velocity. The dimple film thickness becomes greater as the viscosity of lubricant increases. Furthermore, the dimple becomes deeper with increasing squeeze load. Finally, the estimated pressure-viscosity index obtained by the inverse approach is compared with the experimental value of the test fluid. The largest error is 8.21%.

In this study, quality function deployment (QFD) Taguchi method and grey theory to implement customers multiple quality characteristics in the polishing process of Ti-6Al-4V. In the polishing process of Ti-6Al-4V, this study uses QFD to evaluate customer requirements project and technical requirements project by questionnaire and previous experiments. Through QFD to evaluate the critical quality project, the experimental design using orthogonal array and S/N ratio of Taguchi method to find the optimal combination of the polishing parameter levels, and determine the relationship between customer requirements and technical requirements by confidence level of the analysis of variance (ANOVA). Finally, this study applying the traditional method and GM (1, N) model to analysis the priority of technical requirements. By the results of confirm experiment shows the grey theory’s result consistent with a confirm experiment. Therefore, GM (1, N) model might be more appropriate than the traditional method to apply in the QFD. Keywords:QFD, Taguchi method, Grey theory, polishing

In this thesis, we used a non-vacuum method to produce a seed layer of ZnO nanorods which accretes on the various types of conductive and non-conductive substrate. The main ZnO NPs were grown hydrothermally with low temperature and pressure. Since we grow ZnO NRs by the hydrothermal method, the recrystallization status can be observed. We can monitor the type of crystallization and the quality of the ZnO NRs. For example, when we add the NaOH in the growing environment, the shape the ZnO become flower-like structure, which is distinct from the ZnO NRs. The experimental results indicate that, ZnO nanorods can adhere easily because of the seed layer on the substrate. We applied different experimental parameters to grow the ZnO seed layer and the ZnO NRs. To examine the experimental condition, ZnO nanorods with various structures can be observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). In addition, we adjust the pH value in hydrothermal environment to observe the growth of ZnO nanorods. Furthermore, we perform X-ray diffraction (XRD),and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) to monitor the material properties of the ZnO NRs.

The purpose of this research was to discuss the signal characteristics and feasibility of various approaches of seismic method for detecting underground cavity by performing a series of numerical simulations as well as lab tests. The primary seismic method was Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves Method(SASW). The main factors for investigation were the generation of proper seismic source, the placement of receivers, the number of times of impact, the effect of the magnitude of the time factor τ, the measurable of underground cavity, the approaches of producing various frequency and amplitudes by impact source, and the methods for processing the records of signal. The numerical simulations were performed through dispersive Green’s function. A series of lab tests were performed in a model box filling with Ottawa sand and in a poured cement plate. The series of lab tests were firstly performed in a model box filling with Ottawa sand to investigate the placement of receivers, the approaches of installing receivers on the surface of sand, and every possible seismic sources like pencils, steel balls, and steel bars, etc. Because of the cohesionless of sand, we poured a cement plate, and put a plastic pipe inside of it with 15 cm height of the center, 1 m in length, 5 cm diameter, and 80 cm away from the edge as a cavity before pouring. When performing the test on cement plate, a steel ball was used as a falling weight impact source and four receivers, two of them were installed on the surface to measure the vertical displacement, and the other two were installed on the surface to measure the horizontal part. The results of tests with Ottawa sand show that the use of coherence coefficient and cross power spectrum as threshold values for data filtering will successfully reduce large fluctuations occurred in the dispersion curve for high frequency range. And the results of tests with cement plate show the use of either fast or slow exponential functions can enhance the existence cavity. The depth of penetration of Rayleigh waves was found to be half of the wavelength of Rayleigh waves when S=D=20 cm in this research.
