A sacrificial member with aluminum foam of excellent energy absorption capacity was proposed for the protection of significant structures. Parametric studies of explicit finite element analyses were performed to investigate the pressure mitigation of close-range air-blasts. The scaled distance of the blast had a range of Z=0.48~0.95 and an empirical blast load function was utilized. The analytical parameters of the aluminum foam were density, thickness and the existence of a cover sheet. Analytical results showed that the transmitted pressure can be controlled to have a similar level of yield values of the foam by using a foam with low density and higher thickness. As the blast load increased, the sacrificial member needed to have higher density and thickness. A cover sheet of the foam clearly showed its effect on the wider distribution of blast pressure. It is necessary to determine the design parameters of sacrificial foams considering different energy dissipation capacities according to the scaled distance.

The blast analysis method entails the use of an empirical equation and application of the pressure-time history curve as an explosive load. Although this method is efficient owing to its simple model and short run time, previous studies indicate that it may not be appropriate for near-field explosions. In this study, we investigated why different results were observed for the analysis method by considering an RC beam under near-field explosion conditions with the scaled distance of 0.4-1.0 as an example. On this basis, we examined the application range of the empirical analysis method by using the finite element analysis program LS-DYNA. The results indicate that the empirical analysis method based on data from far-field explosion tests underestimates the impulse. Thus, the calculated deflection of the RC beam would be smaller than the measured deflection and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) analysis result. The ALE analysis method is more suitable for near-field explosion conditions wherein the structural responses are large.

Because the water exposed to shock waves caused by an underwater explosion cannot withstand the appreciable tension induced by the change in both pressure and velocity, the surrounding water is cavitated. This cavitating water changes the transferring circumstance of the shock loading. Three phenomena contribute to hull-plate damage; initial shock loading and its interaction with the hull plate, local cavitation, and local cavitation closure then shock reloading. Because the main concern of this paper is local cavitation due to a near-field underwater explosion, the water surface and the waves reflected from the sea bottom were not considered. A set of governing equations for the structure and the fluid were derived. A simple one-dimensional infinite plate problem was considered to verify this uncoupled solution approach compared with the analytic solution, which is well known in this area of interest. The uncoupled solution approach herein would be useful for obtaining a relatively high level of accuracy despite its simplicity and high computational efficiency compared to the conventional coupled method. This paper will help improve the understanding of fluid-structure interaction phenomena and provide a schematic explanation of the practical problem.

We have compared a special character(pressure of explosion, gas volume, energy of explosion, temperature of explosion, strength) of different three emulsion explosives which is different velocity by Nitrodyn program that is calculated explosion reaction. We have analyzed the character of the vibration from a vibration data which is a result from test blasting in different velocity of detonation for three emulsion explosives of the same size(17mm) in the same rock. As a result, the vibration is decreased when the velocity of detonation is decreased within 40m from origin of explosion but it is familiar character over 40m, so there isn't much affect the velocity of detonation in decreased vibration over 40m.

최근에 폭발적으로 늘어나고 있는 인터넷 통신이나 화상회의, 고화질 유선방송 등 정보통신 수요의 증가를 충족시키기 위해서 각 사무실이나 가정까지 광섬유를 연결하여 초고속 통신을 가능하게 하는 fiber to the office 또는 fiber to the home 계획이 선진국을 중심으로 추진 중에 있다. 최근에는 플라스틱 광섬유(POF; plastic optical fiber)에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 지금까지의 광통신에서 상용화되어 사용되고있는 유리 광섬유는 잘 부러지고 그 설치나 연결이 어렵다는 단점 때문에 가정이나 사물실에 설치하기에는 많은 어려움이 있어왔다.

On September 23, 2020, at 1:39 a.m., a bright fireball above Seocheon was observed across the country. Two fireball explosions were identified in the images of the All-Sky Camera (ASC), and the shock waves were recorded at seismic and infrasound stations in the southwestern Korean Peninsula. The location of the explosion was estimated by a Bayesian-based location method using the arrival times of the fireball-associated seismic and infrasound signals at 17 stations. Realistic azimuth- and rang-dependent propagation speeds of sound waves were incorporated into the location method to increase the reliability of the results. The location of the sound source was found to be 36.050°N, 126.855°E at an altitude of 35 km, which was close to the location of the second fireball explosion. The two explosions were identified as sequential infrasound arrivals at local infrasound stations. Simulations of waveforms for long ranges explain the detection results at distant infrasound stations, up to ~266 km from the sound source. The dominant period of the signals recorded at five infrasound stations is about 0.4 s. A period-energy relation suggests the explosion energy was equivalent to ~0.3 ton of TNT.

IEEE 802.11 규격[1]은 2.4GHz 및 5GHz 대역에서 무선 근거리 접속 통신을 위한 국제 표준이다. 1997 년 2.4GHz 대역에서 1, 2 Mbps 의 속도를 지원하는 최초의 규격이 정의된 이래, 속도 개선을 위한 변복조 방식, 보안, QoS 등 다양한 요구 사항을 만족하기 위하여 표준이 지속적으로 개정되어 왔으며 2012 년 새로 개정된 표준이 발표된 바 있다. 특히, 최근 들어서 스마트폰의 무선랜 사용량이 폭발적으로 증가하고 무선랜 접속을 위한 핫스팟 역시 수가 크게 늘면서, 보안성을 유지하면서도 무선랜의 초기 연결접속 시간을 최소화(FILS; Fast Initial Link Setup)함으로써 무선랜 접속 요청 이용자 수에 확장성을 갖는 무선랜 규격을 제정할 필요성이 생기면서 IEEE 내에 802.11ai Task Group[3]이 승인되어 현재 표준화 작업을 진행중에 있다. IEEE 802.11 무선랜 규격에서 초기 연결접속 시간의 상당 부분을 네트워크 발견, 보안 접속, 인증 등에 소요하게 되어, IEEE 802.11ai에서는 보안성을 떨어뜨리지 않으면서도 빠르게 인증을 하기 위한 매커니즘에 대해 논의 중이다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11ai에서 논의 중인 "FILS를 위한 EAP/EAP-RP 기반의 빠른 인증" 기술에 대해 살펴보고, 이의 장단점을 분석하여 보다 개선된 형태의 빠른 인증 기법을 제안하고자 한다.

With the development of modern society, there have been great technical advances, and the meaning, shape, and type of preservation objects have also become diverse. However, the legislation of executives established in 1961 has nt yet been revised realistically. Thatses administrative problems related to the usge and storage of explosives. In this study, the cases of civilian's question and thought that had been submitted to the government agency were surveyed. In order to analyze the effects of preservation object, ENPro3.1, which is a simulation program to analyze the sound pressure, was used to estimate the blast pressure when a magazine containing preservation objects exploded. With the damage due to the blast pressure, the problem with the safe distance depending on the preservation object levels was investigated. From the investigation, the blast pressures in the two cases with the artificial structures at the real distance 309 m and without the artificial structures at the legitimate standard space distance 440 m, were found to be 123 dB(L) and 138 dB(L), respectively. That means the influence of blast pressure in shorter distance with artificial structures is 15 dB(L) lower than longer distance without them. Therefore, it is recommended to apply the preservation distance based on the engineering analysis with a consideration of surrounding environment.

Hydrogen gas is an important and promising energy resource that has no emissions of pollutants during power generation. However, hydrogen gas is very dangerous because it is colorless, odorless, highly flammable, and explosive at low concentration. Conventional techniques for hydrogen gas detection are very difficult for measuring the hydrogen gas distribution at long distances, because they sample the gas to measure its concentration. Raman lidar is one of the techniques for remotely detecting hydrogen gas and measuring the range of the hydrogen gas distribution. A Raman lidar system with an on-axis optical receiver was developed to improve the range of hydrogen gas detection at long distance. To verify the accuracy and improvement in the range of detecting the hydrogen gas, experiments measuring the hydrogen gas concentration are carried out using the developed on-axis Raman lidar system and a gas chamber, to prevent explosion of the hydrogen gas. As a result, our developed on-axis Raman lidar system can measure a minimum hydrogen gas concentration of 0.66 volume percent at a distance of 50 m.
