The performance of convective heat transfer in rod bundle flow was experimentally evaluated using a twist-vane spacer grid. A $4{\times}4$ square-arrayed rod bundle was prepared as the test section, with a pitch-to-diameter ratio(P/D) of ~1.35. To check the convective heat transfer performance, the circumferential and longitudinal variations in rod-wall temperatures were measured downstream of the twist-vane spacer grid. In the circumferential measurements, the rod-wall temperature toward the twist-vane tip showed the lowest value, which might be due to the deflected water flow caused by the twist-vane. On the other hand, the wall temperature of the longitudinal measurements near the twist-vane spacer grid decreased dramatically, which implies that the convective heat transfer performance was enhanced. A heat transfer enhancement of ~35 % was achieved near downstream of the twist-vane spacer grid, as compared with the upstream value. Based on the present experimental data, a correlation for predicting the heat transfer performance of a twist-vane spacer grid was proposed.

Flexural characteristics of the R.C beams strengthened with newly-developed grid-type carbon fiber plastics(CFRP-GRIDS) were investigated. The tests were conducted under the four-points load to the failure to investigate the strengthening effects of CFRP-GRIDS on the beams. Results showed that initial cracks appeared in the boundary layers of fibers embedded in the newly-placed mortar concrete slowly progressed to the direction of supports and showed fracture of fiber plastics and brittle failure of concrete in compression in sequence after the yielding of steel reinforcement. Accordingly, the appropriate area of Grid-type carbon-fiber plastics in the strengthening design of deteriorated RC structures should be limited and given based on the ultimate strength design method to avoid the brittle failure of concrete structures.

We present a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor system for measuring static and high-speed dynamic strains with a resolution of about $5\mu$strain. This sensor system demodulates signals from the FBG sensor utilizing a compensated tunable narrow bandpass filter. We have placed a set of twelve FBGs to concrete specimen and measured its internal stress under various applied load conditions.itions.

본 연구에서는 극초음속 추진기관을 위한 고공환경 모사 설비 장치에서 시험부 안에 들어가는 시험 모델의 변수에 대해 고찰하였다. 시험부에 적용할 시험 모델을 대상으로 진행하고, 시험 모델 형상 변화에 따른 유동 특성을 파악하였다. 시험 모델에 대한 주요 변수는 폐색율, 각도, 받음각으로 설정하였으며, 해석은 EDISON_CFD에서 제공하는 정렬격자 기반 2차원 압축성 유동 범용 해석 SW로 진행하였다. 해석 결과를 통해 다양한 형상 변수에 따라 변화 되는 충격파 뒤의 압력층 두께를 확인 하였고, 압력층 두께가 두꺼워 질수록 시험 조건을 모사 할 수 없음을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 형상 변수에 따른 극초음속 추진기관을 위한 고공모사설비에서 시험부에 적용될 시험 모델의 범위를 확인하였다.

The friction factor in a rod bundle and the loss coefficient at a spacer grid were examined. As a test section, 25 smooth rods, 9.5 mm in diameter and 2000 mm in length, were prepared and installed in a $5{\times}5$ square array in a square channel. In this case, the P/D (Pitch-to-Diameter ratio) was 1.35. In this work, plain (i.e., no mixing vanes), split-vane, and hybrid-vane spacer grids were tested. In a bare rod bundle (i.e., no spacer grid), the measured friction factors were in good agreement with the previous correlations. Among the spacer grids tested, the hybrid-vane spacer grid presented the largest friction factor in the rod bundle and loss coefficient. This may be because of the flow pattern change induced by large relative plugging of the flow cross section and mixing vane geometry. At Re=$5{\times}10^5$, the predicted loss coefficients of plain, splitvane, and hybrid-vane spacer grids were approximately 0.79, 0.80, and 0.88, respectively.

We studied on a technic to improve and implement the virtual environment grid information in the war-game model. The virtual environment data are categorized into ground, sea, and air, and separatedly managed and operated. The data are implemented and managed in the geographical information and topography type information. The geographical information, including grid location coordinate and sea level, are managed in computer files as a grid type. We improved the representation of the sea level by mapping the sea level value of the grid information file into GCV and suggested the dynamic virtual environment implementation technic for the region with the large range of tide. In the experiments, we could know that it is possible to adopt the dynamic virtual environment to the war-game model.

In this paper, a new technique for image enhancement using weighted cross-shaped median filter with edge-detection algorithm is proposed. It consists of simple hypothesis test for edge-detection, and makes use of the cross-shaped moving window. This method is applied to noise corrupted image and its results are compared with those of median filters. As for the experimental result, method of weighted cross-shaped median filter is superior to other median filters.

The setup of the moir$\acute{e}$ deflectometry using the virtual grating was done, so the convergence and divergence of a pencil of ray was determined. The light source was He-Ne laser(3mW). The focal length of the first lens, the second lens being 18 mm, 250 mm respectively was used for the setup of the beam expander. The optics of the moir$\acute{e}$ deflectometry determining the vergence was used a diffraction grating(pitch = $1.6{\mu}m/line$) and a front flat reflection mirror. The effective focal length of the trial lens set was measured and compared with the theoretical value.
