In present paper, source identification using blind source separation is discussed. For acoustic signal, we generally measure it using microphones for further analysis. However, due to complexity of acoustic environment, some other acoustic sources always exist so that the pure target signal can not be obtained. Using proposed blind source separation method, not only waveform of all sources can be recovered, but also their Direction Of Arrival (DOA) are detected.

Driving simulators are frequently used in training, developments of cars, and so on. But, almost all of them can reproduce only predefined situations. In a field of traffic engineering, a variety of traffic simulators have been developed and used in many cases. In this study, we attempt to combine these two kinds of simulators. We can simulate many kinds of interaction of a car that user controls and other cars or pedestrians that move and act autonomously according of their own rules and preference. In this paper, we develop an interactive interface for a multi agent based traffic and environmental simulator MATES as traffic simulator. We examine this system's real-time performance.

Recently, co-design of the products is getting more important on the development site of the product. This situation is caused by the change of user's demand from the product performance to the functionarity. In this report, we optimize the vehicle door closing sound. It affects people's impression of the vehecle, so the door closing sound should be designed carefully with the consideration about targeted customers' preference. We use the psychoacoustic parameters as the objective function to express the large sound quality area, and optimize the door shape by changing the door design properly.

This paper describes an evaluation method for the ease of an ingress motion into a car based on an evaluative structure. An ingress motion is composed of 3 basic motions. The first motion is putting the inner foot on the car floor, and the second is sitting. The last motion is putting the outer foot on the car floor. It is thought that the human evaluative structures are different and independent in each motion. In order to discuss the relation between the biomechanical characteristics and the evaluation, it is important to clarify the structures in each motion. So experiments are carried out by using a mock-up of real-size front passenger seat and with using a questionnaire survey as Kansei evaluation. Through the results of the experiments, it is found that there is the correlation between the car configuration and the evaluation. With using of this relation, the ease of ingress motion can be indicated by getting the information about car configuration and personal size.

The X-FEM in conjunction with the level set method can be used to simplify the modeling of continua containing several cracks and hence perform effective stress analyses related to fracture mechanics. In this study, numerical procedures for elastic-plastic X-FEM analysis including selections of the near-tip enrichment functions are examined. As numerical examples, two-dimensional crack problems of elastic-plastic materials under plane strain condition are solved to evaluate the crack opening displacement and the J-integrals around the crack tip. Obtained results are compared with those obtained using conventional finite element analysis.

The SPH solver of the AUTODYN-3D was applied to the numerical simulation of shaped charges. The hypervelocity particles of SPH precisely represented the profiles of shaped charges, including the jet velocity, the velocity gradient and the elastic-plastic phase changes of the liner material. Using the calculated jet particles, the target penetration process was simulated. The results of the calculation were time-consuming and some parameters did not conform with the traditional theory of the penetration.

Automobile engine fuel spray includes multi-scale free surfaces ; a liquid film forms at the outlet of the fuel injector, and then the liquid film breaks up into droplets. To simulate multi-scale free surfaces, we developed a hybrid particle/grid method where the free surfaces within a sub-grid region were simulated with the particle method, and other regions were simulated with the grid method. In the particle method, we used two particles for gas and liquid to simulate the interaction between them. We tested the new method on a dam-break problem, and the predicted configurations for the water column were consistent with measurements of Koshizuka and Oka. We then simulated the fuel spray near the outlet of an automobile engine fuel injector and found that our method correctly simulated the breakup of the liquid film.

MPS (Moving Particle Semi-implicit) method has been developed for solid and shell dynamics. Since the particle methods are expected to apply to large deformation and fracture, geometrical non-linearity is studied for the MPS methods. Quaternion is employed as the nonlinear rotation angle system. Finite rigid-body rotation can be removed from the deformation gradient tensor using the quaternion. Strain is defined using the right stretch tensor involving the first-order sensitivity. When the quaternion of each particle is implicitly calculated, Hamiltonian can be derived and energy conservation is achieved by employing symplectic schemes.

The Distinct Element Method (DEM) has been applied for the analysis of dynamic interactions between soil and vehicle. The DEM makes it possible to analyze the discrete behavior of soil. However, the cohesive property of soil should be considered additionally because the cohesion influences the soil behavior largely. In this study, the adhesive force caused by liquid bridge was applied to the DEM, and the wet soil model was constructed. To investigate the validity of the wet soil model, we conducted the simulation of bar penetration. The result of simulation is corresponding to the similar experiment in the soil deformation.

An adaptive B-spline wavelet Galerkin method is adopted to the solid and structural analyses. The B-spline scaling function and wavelets used as the basis functions have simple forms and are relatively easy to integrate and differentiate. The basis functions have the so called multiresolution properties. High gradient region of stresses and strains can be refined by the superposition of the different length scale basis functions. As the wavelet Galerkin method is discretized based on structured cells, there are no re-meshing processes for the refinement of the solution. Due to control the spatial resolution of the wavelet Galerkin solution based on the posteriori estimate of its discretization error, an adaptive analysis is adopted. In this paper, adaptive B-spline wavelet Galerkin analyses to the stress concentration problems are performed.

Moving least squares (MLS) are used as promising approximation in meshfree methods. However, known drawbacks of MLS, such as the accuracy sensitivity to the support size of the weight function and to the steep changes of the node distribution, have not yet been discussed sufficiently. In this paper, these problems are spotlighted from a standpoint of the improvement of the solution reliability and the computational efficiency on MLS. Two questions are submitted against the well-known advantages of MLS. A computational bottleneck of MLS, which is setting of the support size corresponding to the node distribution, is also presented concretely.

We have taken the existence of softening melting cohesive zones into account. In this study, we have examined the effects of tuyere angles on the flow stability in the raceway region. Calculated results indicate the raceway pattern, its fluctuations and its various periods. The results also indicate the velocity distributions of coke, powder and gas, and packing ratio distributions of these particles. The calculated data show that steady state raceway is formed at about seven degrees downward in the tuyere angle.

Localized structures in anharmonic lattice systems called intrinsic localized modes (ILMs) are investigated numerically. ILMs are time-periodic and spatial-localized structures due to nonlinearity and discreteness of anharmonic lattices systems. We find that two types of ILMs exist in two dimensional square lattice systems in terms of structures: quasi-one dimensional ILMs and two dimensional ones. Adding to this, we find ILMs envelope and internal frequency are highly depend on lattice structures and interaction potential. We also show that quasi-one dimensional ILMs can move with keeping their localized structures.

Large ship structures are designed considering vibrations induced bypropeller or engine excitation, to prevent structural failure due to metal fatigue and to guarantee comfortable habitability. Vibration analysis of large complex structures such as ships needslarge-scale computation and much time for modeling, computation and post-processing. Therefore, parallel computing is expected to be applied for the ship vibration analysis. In the present study, the authors have developed parallel vibration analysis software by application of DDM based on CG method. As one of options for DDM analysis procedure, we have proposed a 'domain decomposition before mesh generation' and have showed the data structure. Moreover, the effect of pre-conditioning on the convergence is discussed.

To express the splay failure mode, the surface tiebreak method, where the layered shell elements are separated with a certain failure criterion, was employed as well as the constitutive equations based on the progressive damage model. The calculated deformation procedure is similar to the observed splay mode and the obtained load displacement curve was in good agreement with the experimental one.

In this paper a topology optimization algorithm of shell structure subject to crashing deformations is presented. As a topology optimization method the density method is used and the work done by the external loads is employed as the object function. In the density method the element density is taken as the design variable and material properties such as Young's modulus, the tangent modulus or the yield stress are assumed to be power functions of it. The bilinear shell element, which is widely used for the car crash analysis, is employed in the crash analysis with the explicit time integration scheme. The sensitivity analysis is conducted numerically using the history of nodal displacements and the density of the elements are updated with the optimality criteria method. Through several numerical examples it was shown that the present method is useful to design a shell structure.

An uncertainty analysis has been made by using the multiple-canister model, VR, for performance assessment for the high-level radioactive waste repository. However in the previous VR calculations, the number of connected canisters in the same water stream was determined arbitrary. In this study, the uncertainty resulting from fracture networks in host rock has been taken into account by applying the probability distribution function of the numbers of connected canisters by a fracture cluster obtained by the FFDF code. The release rate of ^<237>Np from a hypothetical repository model containing 100 canisters has been evaluated by using the VR code resulting from variations of the number of connected canisters.

This paper describes a simulation of octree AMR using Fully Threaded Tree with Pedigree (pFTT) data structure that is most suitable for adaptive mesh strategy among standard, FTT and pFTT data structures. To validate the present approach, a scalar transport equation was calculated on pFTT, using AMR with scalar gradient as an index for joining and splitting cells. According to numerical experiments, it was found that this method was able to capture a face of discontinuity appropriately. Skipping the process of joining and splitting, however, leads to the decline of the numerical accuracy and the increase of the calculation costs. Reasonably good results were obtained with every or every 2 steps joining and splitting on pFTT using AMR.

The total strains in wrinkled membranes are decomposed into elastic and zero-strain energy parts. A projection matrix that extracts the elastic parts from the total strains is derived. The resulting modified elasticity matrix that represents the stress-strain relations in wrinkled membranes is thus obtained as product of the classical elasticity matrix and the projection matrix. A numerical example is presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method.

Being sophisticated numerical methods for CFD, both CIP/multi-moment finite volume method (CIP/MM FVM) and discontinuous Galerkin (DG) use more than one so-called moment in their formulations to increase the degrees of freedom on a local base. We compare the two in this paper in regard to underlying concept, moment definition and solution procedure.

A conservative form of Interpolated Differential Operator (IDO) scheme (IDO-CF) is presented for compressible and incompressible fluid dynamics. Fluid equations are solved for multi-moments those are volume integral, surface integral, line integral, and point value of conservative quantities. For Riemann problems of compressible fluid flow, the IDO-CF scheme gives the same or better results compared with Riemann solvers. Direct Numerical Simulation of incompressible turbulent flow shows that the proposed scheme has better resolution than that of non-conservative form of the IDO scheme.

We propose a high-order finite volume method based on multi-moment, namely constrained interpolation profile/multi-moment finite volume method (CIP/MM FVM), on the icosahedral spherical grid. In this method, two kinds of moments are defined as model variables on physical field, for example the point value (PV) and the volume-integrated average (VIA), and updated independently in time. Therefore, a CIP/MM FVM appears to be more attractive regarding the stability and flexibility in comparison with other conventional single-moment finite volume methods that use only the VIA as the model variable. The icosahedral spherical grid has a significant advantage of grid uniformity. We have developed a CIP/MM FVM formulations for the advection equation and the shallow-water equations on the sphere, and carried out some numerical experiments to varify the numerical schemes.

A conservative semi-Lagrangian transport scheme based on CIP/Multi-moment finite volume method has been developed on the Yin-Yang spherical grid. The underlying concept of the CIP/MM method used here is to treat two kinds of moments, namely the volume integrated average (VIA) and the point value (PV), as the prognostic variables different from those used in the conventional finite volume method. At the same time, the single-cell piecewise interpolation function over each mesh element is constructed in terms of both the VIA and the PV moments. In this paper, we present some numerical tests and verifications for implementing the CIP/MM finite volume method on the Yin-Yang grid.

Overset-Grid Method is essential for simulation of moving boundary problem. In order to keep accurate interpolation at overlapping area, we adopt Interpolated Differential Operator scheme (IDO). That can solve Poisson equation with fourth-order accuracy. As the first step to simulate moving objects, we applied the method to the flow around stationary object.
