The using of diesel engine will be increased in the world for fuel economy. But diesel engine emits harmful emissions such as much NOx, smoke etc. In this study, experiments were performed to investigate the spray characteristics of diesel spray in a common-rail system according to fuel temperature, injection pressure, injection period and fuel viscosity etc. using a high speed video camera. Diesel oil has different spray patten due to injection pressure and injection period in a common-rail system. A Filter pressure was influenced by fuel temperature which was turned to fuel viscosity related to a fluid flowing. The effect of the bio-diesel fuel mixing ratio on the spray and atomization characteristics was also investigated at various experimental conditions. It shows that the droplet atomization characteristics of bio-diesel fuel showed deteriorated results as the mixing ratio of biodiesel increased because of the high viscosity.

This research concerns the characteristics of tank barrel inner flow according to the barrel length and the pressure of ammunition when fired. By analyzing the flow characteristics of the bore evacuator according to barrel length and ammunition pressure regarding ammunition design, it is possible to prevent the flareback phenomenon that may occur during ammunition operation. Through bore evacuator flow analysis by barrel length and ammunition pressure, we identified key design factors concerning barrel and ammunition compatibility including speed, accuracy, penetration performance and range. Test results found if barrel length is long and ammunition pressure is low, bore evacuator operation time is slow. Therefore, there is a high probability that propellant gas will enter the battle vehicle. Therefore, the correlation analysis method of bore evacuator flow characteristics based on barrel length and ammunition pressure is considered as a primary method to improve operational performance. When designing new ammunition, the correlation analysis method will be used to determine ammunition weight and select the propellant pressure.

A series of fire tests was conducted to examine the fire characteristics of flaming and smoldering combustion of engineered wood products, which have been widely used for furniture and finishing materials in buildings. The engineered wood products of MDF, plywood, and chipboard were ignited by a radiant cone heater with incident heat flux of $50kW/m^2$. During the fire test, key parameters representing the fire characteristics such as the heat release rate, yield rate of combustion product, and effective heat of combustion were quantified in terms of thickness. The tests show two peak points of HRRPUA due to lateral fire propagation in the initial stage, followed by later fire penetration through the specimen thickness. The mass loss rate of flaming combustion was 5 times higher than that of smoldering combustion, while the CO yield rate of smoldering combustion was 10 times higher than that of flaming combustion. This study can contribute to the understanding of fire behavior of wood combustibles and provide useful data for fire analysis.

In order to investigate the punch properties of some vegetables-cucumber, radish, garlic, ginger and potato-force, distance, and time were measured with a texturometer, and the correlations between compositions and cell characteristics of samples were characterized. Many reflection and rupture points on the force-distance and distance-time curve were observed, and these points appeared when the cells of sample were resisted and yielded against the applied force. They were big and clear at the slow crosshead speed. The regression analysis for force-time and distance-time to the rupture point showed $R^{2}>0.95$. The rupture time and rupure force were 5.63 sec, 4.88 N in ginger and 4.15 sec, 2.00 N in cucumber. The rupture forces become large values at the fast crosshead speed. As cell sizes were increased, the moisture content and rupture distance were increased, while the viscosity of juice, density, regularity of cell, and slope of force-time were decreased. Rupture force, time and distance were decreased at the large specific gravity of samples. The slopes of distance-time curve were inversely proportional to slope of force-time curve.

Modal properties for tapered cantilever pipe-type beam is identified by applying the boundary conditions to a general solution for tapered beam. A bending stiffness for cracked beam is constructed based on an energy method for tapered cantilever thin-walled pipe, which has a through-the-thickness crack, subjected to bending. Then the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a tapered cantilever thin-walled cracked pipe are identified. It can be found that the phenomenon of the bending stiffness distribution along the beam length of the cracked beam is quite reasonable, the natural frequencies are decreased as the crack sizes are increased, and the mode shapes are changed due to the crack. This results may be used to the vibration-based crack identification for the tapered cantilever pipe-type tower structures.

77 K와 self-field에서 22 A 의 Ic 를 갖는 길이 120 m, 19-심 Bi-2223상 선재를 제조하여, 두 개의 double pancake 코일로 구성된 proto-type 고온초전도 자석을 설계, 제작하여 이 자석에서의 4.2 K와 77 K에서의 I-V 특성과 운전 특성을 평가한 결과, 이 자석은 77 K 등온조건에서는 9.5 A 의 Ic를, 77 K 헬륨가스 속에서는 8.3 A 의 Ic를 나타내었고, 4.2 K 등온조건에서는 93.7 A 의 Ic와 102 A 의 Iq를, 4.2K헬륨가스 속에서는 88.4A의 Ic 와 92.0 A 의 Iq를 나타내어, 이 자석은 4.2 K 와 77 K 의 등온조건에서 각각 0.58 T 와 0.06 T 의 자장을 발생하였는데, 이는 해석적 방법으로 계산한 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 그리고 이 자석이 전도냉각되어 4.2 K 에서 운전될 때의 안정성 특성평가로서, Ic 보다 약간 큰 전류인 89 A 를 인가한 결과, 전류인가 후 82.6초 후에 quench가 발생하였는데, 이 quench는 네 번째 pancake의 전류도입선부 연결부에서와 약간 늦지만 첫 번째 pancake의 전류도입선부 연결부에서 거의 동시에 개시되어 전체로 파급된 것으로 사료되었는데, Ic 가 낮은 첫번째 pancake에서 더 높은 전압 강하가 나타났다. 또한 장착된 heater를 통하여 77 K 에서 8.9 A 의 전류로 운전되고 있는 코일에 146 joule 의 열을 가했을 때 quench 가 일어났는데, 이때 quench 는 방위각 방향의 Bi-2223/Ag 선재를 따라서 보다 Kapton 절연층을 관통하는 선재의 반경방향으로 훨씬 빨리 전파하였다.

This paper presents two ground plane effects due to the size of two rectangular apertures for two-wire transmission line with equal line length crossing the changeable rectangular apertures in infinite ground planes. The CST MWS is used to determine the characteristics of the insertion loss of the transmission line from the load section in accordance with the ground plane aperture size. The results show that the insertion gain and the insertion loss are periodically observed for the multiple frequency of the half wavelength resonance by the wire length when the transmission line is nearby to horizontal side or vertical side of the aperture. The measurements of the insertion loss are performed to verify the theoretical analysis.

열플라즈마는 주로 아크 방전에 의해 발생시킨 전자, 이온, 중성입자(원자 및 분자)로 구성된 부분 이온화된 기체로, 국소열평형상태를 유지하여 구성입자가 모두 수천에서 수만도에 이르는 같은 온도를 갖는 고속의 제트 화염 형태를 이루고 있다. 이렇게 고온, 고열용량, 고속, 다량의 활성입자를 갖는 열플라즈마의 특성을 이용하여, 종래 기술에서는 얻을 수 없는 다양하고 효율적인 산업적 이용이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 용사코팅은 노즐 출구를 통해서 외부로 방출되는 열 플라즈마 화염을 이용하는 것으로 이 화염의 와류 특성으로 인하여 외기의 가스가 화염내부로 침투하는 특성을 가진다. 이러한 현상은 열원의 냉각효과 외에도 외기를 구성하는 기체 분자의 내부 유입을 의미하는 것으로 대기 상태에서 공정이 이루어진다면 열원 내로 유입되는 대기 내의 산소가 모재 표면과 반응하여 산화가 진행된다. 이러한 산화과정은 용사 코팅의 품질을 저하시키는 요인이 되므로, W, Ti 등과 같은 반응성이 높은 재료의 코팅은 산화과정을 방지하기 위하여 진공에서 코팅을 하여야만 한다. 진공 플라즈마용사코팅은 진공 또는 저압의 불활성 분위기 중에서 열플라즈마 화염에 용사재료를 투입하여 플라즈마 화염 내부에서 순간적으로 이를 용융시킨 후 고속으로 분출, 모재에 적층시키는 코팅공정이다. 이때 분말상의 용사재료를 고속으로 화염 중심에 투입하여 최대 에너지 전달이 이루어지도록 하는 것이 적층효율 및 코팅품질을 향상에 필수적이다. 하지만 플라즈마 화염 내부를 고속으로 이동하는 입자의 온도와 속도 및 궤적을 측정하여 제어하는 것은 매우 어렵기 때문에, 통상 형성된 코팅의 구조와 두께로부터 경험적으로 파라미터를 결정하는 것이 일반적이다. 본 연구에서는 초고속 레이저 카메라와 이미지 분석용 소프트웨어를 이용하여 플라즈마 화염내의 비행입자 궤적을 추적하고, 이를 통해 분말 이송가스의 유량이 코팅 효율 및 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 플라즈마 화염은 중심부가 가장 높은 온도와 속도를 가지고 있기 때문에, 분말 이송가스의 유량이 적을 경우 투입된 분말은 단지 플라즈마 화염의 상부 경계면을 지나는 궤적을 갖게된다. 이로 인해 분말의 용융이 충분히 이루어지지 않아 적층 효율이 낮고 미용융 입자 및 기공이 많은 미세구조를 보였다. 이송가스 유량을 증가시키게 되면, 분말의 궤적은 플라즈마 화염의 중심부를 지나게 되어 적층 효율이 증가하고 미세구조 또한 개선되었다. 하지만 이송가스 유량이 지나치게 클 경우, 투입된 분말 입자는 플라즈마 화염을 조기에 관통하게 되어 비행궤적은 온도와 속도가 낮은 영역에 형성되었다.

This paper presents the results of investigation on the behavior of soil-reinforced segmental retaining walls in tiered arrangement using the finite element method of analysis. 2D finite element analyses were performed on tiered walls with two levels of offset distance. Cases with equivalent surcharge as suggested by the NCMA design guideline were additionally analyzed in an attempt to confirm the appropriateness of the equivalent surcharge model adopted by NCMA. Deformation characteristics of a tiered wall with small offset distance suggest a compound mode of failure and support current design approaches requiring a global slope stability analysis for design. Also revealed is that the interaction between the upper and lower walls significantly affects not only the performance of the lower wall but also the upper wall, suggesting that the upper walls should also be designed with due consideration of the interaction.
