Full-scale test facility is a huge system which is integrated by many subsystems. There are several critical elements in test facility system. Those elements may cause undesirably test article failure during testing. Therefore, test facility monitoring system which indicates the operating status of the critical elements is required for performing full-scale structural test. Selection of critical element and design of this monitoring system are explained in detail in this paper. The monitoring system developed are being applied to T-50 full-scale static test, will be expended for full-scale fatigue test in the near future.

Advanced overload protection module for full scale airframe structural test was developed by improving the existing overload protection module. When performing the full scale airframe structural test, overload can be applied to the test article due to unexpected situations such as system shutdown, test article failure, and deficiency of design strength. Therefore, the overload protection module is needed for protecting the test article in unexpected overload situations. In this paper, the function of the existing overload protection module was summarized for each component and the problems encountered when using it in structural test were analyzed in addition, the development of advanced overload protection module was described.

For aviation sensor pod, structural integrity should be verified through static structural tests for flight loads induced in various maneuvering conditions of the aircraft. For this, it is necessary to develop a test system for full-scale static load test of sensor pod. Based on test requirements, this paper introduced a test system configuration of the static test and the development of test structure frame, restraints equipment, loading equipment, control, and measurement equipment. In addition, methods and procedures for verifying the developed test system were explained. In conclusion, the static load test and data acquisition were successfully performed. Reliability of the test equipment was also verified in the process.

A composite case was designed to satisfy the required condition of KSLV-I kick motor system. we performed the structure and combustion tests to insure the reliability of the case before the production of the flight model. The hydraulic, vacuum and non destruction testes as the structure test were carried out to confirm the strength of the components of the case and the characteristics of the thermal and structure were investigated through the ground combustion test.

지반-구조물 상호작용해석에 부분구조법의 적용성 확인과 해석법의 개선을 모색하기 위하여, 대만 Hualien지방에 건설한 대형 내진시험 구조물의 뒷채움후 강제진동시험 결과를 부분구조법으로 예측하고 예측후상관해석을 수행하였다. 모델로서는 재료시험과 지반조사 결과로 작성된 통일모델과 예측후상관해석모델을 사용하였으며, 해석은 진동 수영역과 시간영역에서 각각 이루어졌다 연구 결과로 깊이 묻힌 구조물의 경우는 구조물이 묻힌 측면지반의 영향인 수평병진과 수평축회전의 연계 임피던스함수에 대한 적절한 평가와 해석시에 반드시 고려되어야함을 알 수 있었다.

근년에 항공 산업이 많은 관심을 불러일으키고 있음에 즈음하여 독자적인 항공기 구조개발시 구조적 안전성 확보를 위해서는 구조시험 기술의 확보가 필수적이다. 또한 구조시험 관련기술은 다른 기계 구조물의 초기 설계단계에서 구조 강도 및 피로 강도의 확인을 위해서도 응력될 수 있어 구조물의 설계 및 제작공정 결정에 큰 도움이 될 수 있으므로 기업체나 연구소에서도 충 분히 응용할 수 있도록 노력을 기울여야 할 분야이다.

Some methods of calculation of test load value from design load data were investigated which will be applied at strap installed full-scale airframe of composite aircraft. These methods were applied to left wing of KC-100 composite aircraft and the calculated test load values were compared with each others. Generally since test load values are differently calculated according to each aircraft type and position of straps, all calculation methods mentioned at this study need to be applied and compared to each aircraft. Finally the most appropriate method needs to be selected.

This paper describes the structural strength test technique and the results for cylindrical supersonic vehicle subjected to both aerodynamic load and thermal load. The special positioning system using spring links was designed to float, support and restrain the test airframe during the test and the down-time. The hydraulic system and the electric heating system were utilized to apply the aerodynamic load and the thermal load to the test airframe together. Particularly, several hundreds of infrared quartz lamps were used for the heating system, and the thermal test conditions were successfully simulated. The test results showed that this kind of high temperature test is adequate to verify the structure integrity and produce useful engineering data which is necessary for the possible structural modification under thermal environments.

AE technique was applied to the static structural test of the composite wing structure to evaluate the structural integrity and damage. During the test, strain and displacements measurement technique were used to figure out for static structural strength. AE parameter analysis and source location technique were used to evaluate the internal damage and find out damage source location. Design limit load test, the 1st and 2nd design ultimate load tests and fracture test were performed. Main AE source was detected by an sensor attached on skin near by front lug. Especially, at the 1st design ultimate test, strain and displacements results didn't show internal damage but AE signal presented a phenomenon that the internal damage was formed. At the fracture test, AE activities were very lively, and strain and displacements results showed a tendency that the load path was changed by severe damage. The internal damage initiation load and location were accurately evaluated during the static structural test using AE technique. It is certified from this paper that AE technique is useful technique for evaluation of internal damage at static structural strength test.
