    Notes: We have proposed a cell based parallel computing system using a cellular automatonmodel. The proposed system is designed by object-oriented technique to realize extensibility for parallel cellular automaton model. Because the system needs only information of model as cells which are represented by pixel and voxel mesh, model generation is very easy from any data formats. We implement several applications, which are 1-D life game, 2-D life game, 2-D diffusion, 2-D parallel diffusion, 2-D wave propagation, 3-D wave propagation and 3-D parallel wave propagation on the system. Status of cells is updated by adjacent status of cells. In other worth, behavior of system is completely specified in terms of a local relation. Cells can hold many properties to represent its status. Cellular automata system can calculate physical phenomena and discrete problem like a life game simultaneously. We present some results of a physical analysis and discrete analysis, and discuss effectiveness and parallel efficiency of proposed system

    Notes: In the treatment based on Guided Bone Regeneration method (GBR), membranes arenecessary to cover bone defects and prevent the invasion of surrounding soft tissues. In spite of thepotential usefulness of GBR method, no appropriate materials for the membrane have beendeveloped and this method is not utilized frequently in common clinical practice. Here wedeveloped materials such as a composite of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and copolymer ofL-lactide, glycolide and ε-caplolactone (PLGC), and designed the novel GBR membranes with idealmechanical properties. The materials had good biocompatibility, and the membrane had sufficientstrength although their thickness was as thin as 200 μm. The membranes were applied to large bonedefects created in canine mandibular bones, and significant enhancement in bone regeneration wasdemonstrated

    Notes: Three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) is widely used as an effective numerical simulation technique to solve the complex engineering problem. In the FEM simulation technique at first it needs to discrete the problem. However, the almost all of the engineering problem have very complicated structure and shape, so that the mesh generation also have much difficulty. Furthermore, the correct generation of mesh is one of the most significant issues that directly affect to the accuracy of the FEM simulation. Though in extensive commercial software have an excellent automatic mesh generating system, however the problem of hexahedral automatic mesh generation and its adaptation are not enough to solve for practical applications, because for the mesh generation of complex shape is very difficult and still intensive labor work by hand. In this paper we present a new method to generate an appropriate mesh using existing regular hexahedral mesh and hexahedron mesh generation technique. This technique based on the wave transmits theory with damp named Waveform Mesh Generating (WMG) method. The results shown that the complex shaped FEM discrete hexahedral mesh model generated when shape of the side apply to regular mesh side as a waveform constraint

    Notes: This paper describes a computer simulation of thermal ageing process in Fe-Cu alloy. In order to perform accurate numerical simulation, firstly, we make numerical models of the diffusion and dissociation of Cu and Cu-vacancy clusters. This modeling was performed with kinetic lattice Monte Carlo method, which allows us to perform long-time simulation of vacancy diffusion in Fe-Cu dilute alloy. The model is input to the kinetic Monte Carlo method, and then, we performed the kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of the thermal ageing in the Fe-Cu alloy. The results of the KMC simulations tell us that the our new models describes well the rate and kinetics of thediffusion and dissociation of Cu and Cu-vacancy clusters, and works well in the kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, we discussed the further application of these numerical models

    Notes: MG (multigrid) method is one of the most promising solvers for large scale problems. Hexahedral mesh generation and its adaptation are not enough to use for practical applications, because its mesh generation is very difficult and still labor intensive work by hand. We have developed hexahedral local refinement technique controlled by posterior error estimation. We have proposed a MG technique for unstructured hexahedral meshes with local mesh refinement. In this paper, the proposed technique is evaluated to check its performance and severe analyses of bending cantilevers. Performance of MG for unstructured hexahedral meshes is compared with that of the PCG (preconditioned conjugate gradient) through several benchmark examples of 3-D static elastic analysis. Proposed MG is faster than PCG for all problems as number of freedoms increases. Finally limitation of the proposed technique is presented

    Notes: Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a relatively new technique for simulating the dynamic response of solids, especially for high velocity impact and fracture problem. However, closer examination of SPH reveals some severe problems. The major difficulties are: (1) tensile instability; (2) zero-energy mode; (3) boundary deficiency; (4) less accuracy. One solution to thesemajor difficulties with SPH is to improve the consistency of the kernel function. Based on the Reproducing Kernel Particle Method (RKPM), the concept of the proposed simplified linear consistency is introduced. The most attractive feature of the simplified linear consistency is the ease and cheapness of doing 3D calculation. One contribution of this paper is to show clearly the accuracy of solution gradually improved by increasing the order of the consistency. Simple 3D impacting models are established with different geometries and higher accurate results are obtainedby using higher consistency kernel functions. Other features as numerical convergence, computational efficiency, etc. and some considerations of the simplified linear consistency kernel function are also discussed

    Notes: SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) method is applied to impact crush/buckling problem of circular tube. It has been known that there are several kinds of buckling modes by axial impact load. First, elastic analyses of the crush/buckling are conducted, and three types of typical crush/buckling shape are obtained. Following the elastic analyses, elastic-plastic analyses were performed to improve the accuracy of the simulation. The shape of the buckling and the energy absorbed by circular tube are discussed

    Notes: Soft-nanotechnologies are based upon the synthesis technologies of nanomaterials andconstruction technologies of nanostructures by life forms. They are expected as new preparationmethods for biomaterials that could be recognized as regular extracellular matrices (ECM) in ourbody by cells. We applied the soft-nanotechnology to synthesis of artificial bones made of HAp andcollagen with bone-like nanostructure and examined their physical and biological properties. Thenanocomposite obtained indicates bone-like nanostructure. Computer simulation and FT-IRsuggested that the self-organization of HAp and collagen is based on chemical interaction betweencalcium ions on HAp surface and carboxy groups on collagen. After implantation in rats and dogs,the nanocomposites are resorbed by osteoclasts followed by osteogenesis; therefore, thenanocomposites are recognized as bone in the living body. Resorption rate can be controlled bycrosslinkage. We also prepared sponge-like elastic porous body by gel-lyophilization techniqueusing additional small amount of collagen solution. Bone tissue reactions of it are the same as thenanocomposites as prepared. The nanocomposites are now in clinical research in Japan to becommercialized in near future by Pentax Co

    Notes: Bone is a complex system with adaptation and repair functions. To understand how bone cells can create a structure adapted to the mechanical environment, we proposed a simple bone remodeling model, iBone, based on a reaction-diffusion system [1]. A 3-dimensional mandibular bone model consisting of approximately 1.4 million elements was constructed from sequential computer tomography (CT) images of a 14-year old female. Both teeth and bone were modeled withisoparametric voxel elements with Young's Modulus = 20 GPa and Poisson's ratio = 0.3. Both heads of the mandible were fixed allowing rotation and horizontal movement. Teeth were fixed vertically allowing horizontal movements. Incisor, right/left group, and right/left molar biting conditions were simulated. The locations and directions of muscles, and their forces were predicted from the CTimages. Remodeling simulation was performed by 10 sets of finite element method analysis and reaction-diffusion remodeling simulation to obtain internal structure adapted to each loading condition. As a result, the major part of the corpus of the simulated mandibular bone showed similar internal structures under different biting conditions. Moreover, these simulated structures were satisfactorily similar to that of the real mandible. Computer simulation of three-dimensional bonestructures based on CT images will be very useful for understanding the patho-physiological state of bone under various mechanical conditions, and may assist orthopedic doctors to predict the risk and efficacy of surgical therapies

    Notes: In this work, the point defect production in α-Zr at 600K by displacement cascadewith Primary Knock-on Atom (PKA) energy up to 20KeV has been investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Especially, the influence of subcascades formation on the point defect and cluster production in 20keV cascades has been investigated in detail. The subcascade formation was seen in 36 cases of 20keV cascade simulations out of 50 cases. As the damaged areas are divided into many small areas, the maximum size of point defect cluster tends to decrease when the displacement cascade is settled. On the other hand, subcascades formation has not had an influence on the number of Frenkel pairs in final state of the 20keV cascades comparatively
