This paper presents results of flight experiments on a navigation algorithm including multiplicative extended Kalman filter for estimating attitude of the guided munition. The filter describes orientation of aircraft by data fusion with low-cost sensors where measurement update is done by multiplication, rather than addition, which is suitable for quaternion representation. In determining attitude from vector observations, the existing approach utilizes a 3-axis accelerometer as a 2-axis inclinometer by measuring gravity to estimate pitch and roll angles, while GNSS velocity is used to derive heading of the vehicle. However, during accelerated maneuvers such as coordinated flight, the accelerometer provides inadequate inclinometer measurements. In this paper, the measurement update process is newly defined to complement the vulnerability by using different vector observations. The acceleration measurement is considered as a result of a centrifugal force and gravity during turning maneuvers and used to estimate roll angle. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through flight experiments.

How to estimate the shape of trawl net and ropes of a midwater trawl on full scale was described by implementing a three-dimensional semi-analytic treatment of a towing cable system with the field experiments obtained with the Scanmar system. The shape of trawl net from wingend to the beginning of codend was assumed to be of form $\chi$$^2$/ae$^2$+ y$^2$/be$^2$=(z - c)$^2$/c$^2$, and that of the ropes attached behind otter boards be of form yr = $A\chi$rB. In case of warp length 300m long, the volume of trawl net, the ratio of net height to net width at the mouth of the trawl net, and the inclination angle of float rope were estimated according to the change of towing speed. The volume and the distance between wingtips were increased with increasing towing speed. And the inclination angle of float (or ground) rope was slightly decreased with increasing towing speed.

The characteristics of a helical turbine to be used for tidal stream energy conversion have been numerically studied with varying a few design parameters. The helical turbines were proposed aiming at mitgating the well known poor cut-in characteristics and the structural vibration caused by the fluctuating torque, and the basic concept is introducing some twisting angle of the vertical blade along the rotation axis of the turbine. Among many potential controling parameters, we focused, in this paper, on the twisting angle and the height to diameter ratio of the turbine, and, based on the numerical experiment, We tried to propose a configuration of such turbine for which better performance can be expected. The three-dimensional unsteady RANS equations were solved by using the commercial CFD software, FLUENT with k-${\omega}$ SST turbulence model, and the grid was generated by GAMBIT. It is shown that there are a range of the twisting angle producing better efficiency with less vibration and the minimum height to diameter ratio above which the efficiency does not improve considerably.

Different fat extraction methods such as the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were compared in terms of their fatty acid contents of milk powder. Contents of total saturated fatty acids by the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were 8.578, 8.302, and 8.711 g/100 g milk powder while contents of total unsaturated fatty acids by the Rose-Gottlieb, Folch, and hydrolytic methods were 11.513, 11.143, and 11.669 g/100 g milk powder, respectively. These results suggest that the hydrolytic method has a similar fatty acid composition as the well-known Rose-Gottlieb method. In uncooked chicken, total fatty acid contents of breast, gamb, and wing were 6.302, 8.313, and 11.346 g/100 g, respectively. Among different cooking methods, frying increased content of total trans fatty acids up to 0.034 (breast), 0.112 (gamb), and 0.123 g/100 g (wing).

For regulating the depth of midwater trawl nets towed at the optimum constant speed, the changes in the shape of warps caused by adding a weight on an arbitrary point of the warp of catenary shape is studied. The shape of a warp may be approximated by a catenary. The resultant inferences under this assumption were experimented. Accordingly feasibilities for the application of the result of this study to the midwater trawl nets were also discussed. A series of experiments for basic midwater trawl gear models in water tank and a couple of experiments of a commercial scale gears at sea which involve the properly designed depth control devices having a variable attitude horizontal wing were carried out. The results are summarized as follows: 1. According to the dimension analysis the depth y of a midwater trawl net is introduced by $$y=kLf(\frac{W_r}{R_r},\;\frac{W_o}{R_o},\;\frac{W_n}{R_n})$$) where k is a constant, L the warp length, f the function, and $W_r,\;W_o$ and $W_n$ the apparent weights of warp, otter board and the net, respectively, 2. When a boat is towing a body of apparent weight $W_n$ and its drag $D_n$ by means of a warp whose length L and apparent weight $W_r$ per unit length, the depth y of the body is given by the following equation, provided that the shape of a warp is a catenary and drag of the warp is neglected in comparison with the drag of the body: $$y=\frac{1}{W_r}\{\sqrt{{D_n^2}+{(W_n+W_rL)^2}}-\sqrt{{D_n^2+W_n}^2\}$$ 3. The changes ${\Delta}y$ of the depth of the midwater trawl net caused by changing the warp length or adding a weight ${\Delta}W_n$_n to the net, are given by the following equations: $${\Delta}y{\approx}\frac{W_n+W_{r}L}{\sqrt{D_n^2+(W_n+W_{r}L)^2}}{\Delta}L$$ $${\Delta}y{\approx}\frac{1}{W_r}\{\frac{W_n+W_rL}{\sqrt{D_n^2+(W_n+W_{r}L)^2}}-{\frac{W_n}{\sqrt{D_n^2+W_n^2}}\}{\Delta}W_n$$ 4. A change ${\Delta}y$ of the depth of the midwater trawl net by adding a weight $W_s$ to an arbitrary point of the warp takes an equation of the form $${\Delta}y=\frac{1}{W_r}\{(T_{ur}'-T_{ur})-T_u'-T_u)\}$$ Where $$T_{ur}^l=\sqrt{T_u^2+(W_s+W_{r}L)^2+2T_u(W_s+W_{r}L)sin{\theta}_u$$ $$T_{ur}=\sqrt{T_u^2+(W_{r}L)^2+2T_uW_{r}L\;sin{\theta}_u$$ $$T_{u}^l=\sqrt{T_u^2+W_s^2+2T_uW_{s}\;sin{\theta}_u$$ and $T_u$ represents the tension at the point on the warp, ${\theta}_u$ the angle between the direction of $T_u$ and horizontal axis, $T_u^2$ the tension at that point when a weights $W_s$ adds to the point where $T_u$ is acted on. 5. If otter boards were constructed lighter and adequate weights were added at their bottom to stabilize them, even they were the same shapes as those of bottom trawls, they were definitely applicable to the midwater trawl gears as the result of the experiments. 6. As the results of water tank tests the relationship between net height of H cm velocity of v m/sec, and that between hydrodynamic resistance of R kg and the velocity of a model net as shown in figure 6 are respectively given by $$H=8+\frac{10}{0.4+v}$$ $$R=3+9v^2$$ 7. It was found that the cross-wing type depth control devices were more stable in operation than that of the H-wing type as the results of the experiments at sea. 8. The hydrodynamic resistance of the net gear in midwater trawling is so large, and regarded as nearly the drag, that sweeping depth of the gear was very stable in spite of types of the depth control devices. 9. An area of the horizontal wing of the H-wing type depth control device was $1.2{\times}2.4m^2$. A midwater trawl net of 2 ton hydrodynamic resistance was connected to the devices and towed with the velocity of 2.3 kts. Under these conditions the depth change of about 20m of the trawl net was obtained by controlling an angle or attack of $30^{\circ}$.

An optical interference method was developed for measuring rapidly growing and evaporating liquid condensate films (e.g., Na$_{2}$SO$_{4}$, $K_{2}$SO$_{4}$) on solid surface exposed to flowing combustion product gases at film thicknesses well below the onset of complications due to run-off. To develop this optical system, this study investigated the optical parameters (e.g., polarization state, incident angle, target roughness, etc.) Trends for the Na$_{2}$SO$_{4}$(l) and $K_{2}$SO$_{4}$(l) deposition rates as a function of target temperature using this optical measuring system agree with the theoretical prediction of the vapor deposition. This study was able to extend the experimental range for vapor plus condensed phase transport and deposition. While previously unable to measure the evaporation rates interferometrically, these rates are estimated from the results of the investigation of polarization states.

In this paper the aeroacoustic characteristics of a helicopter main rotor system is measured by using a pair of scaled rotor blades. A low noise rotor test jig is developed for noise measurement and the rotational speed, thrust and torque are measured simultaneously in order to match the aerodynamic conditions with the full scale rotor. The accuracy of the force measurement device was checked through a calibration procedure. The measured thurst and torque with a 1.2m rotor are compared to the results of analytical prediction and showed that the thrust data at various rotational speed followed the prediction relatively well, but the torque data considered less accurate. It is also found that the background noise level of the test rig is sufficiently low, and the measured noise level from the rotor can be scaled with rotor tip speed. However, the Mach number dependancy and the directivity changes depend on the noise source characteristics.

디스플레이, 센서 등 전자소자는 소형화 단계를 지나 인체 부착형 소자로의 발전을 요구하고 있다. 부착형 소자에서는 접착력과 큰 마찰력이 필요하지만 마찰특성이 더 중요하므로 인체 및 물체의 마찰을 위해서는 다양한 표면에 대항하는 마찰 특성과 내구성이 요구되며 이를 위해 개코도마뱀 또는 딱정벌레, 말벌날개와 같은 자연모사형 건식 마찰 방식에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존 폴리머를 이용하여 자연모사형 마이크로/나노 구조 형성은 기계적으로 가공된 금형 몰딩을 통한 매무 복잡한 공정을 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 복잡한 공정을 통한 마찰재 제작을 단순화하기 위해서 플라즈마 표면처리를 활용하여 나노구조 형성하는 방법을 소개하고자 하며, 건식 접착 및 마찰용 폴리머 소재(PDMS(Poly dimethyl siloxane))에 따른 표면구조 변화와 표면에너지 및 화학결합 변화에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 플라즈마 표면처리를 위해서 자체 개발한 선형이온소스를 활용하였으며 입사에너지에 따라 표면형상 변화를 주사전자현미경을 활용하여 관찰하였다. 표면에너지 변화는 접촉각측정기를 활용하였으며, Tribology tester(Ball on disk)를 활용하여 마찰특성을 평가하였다. PDMS(Poly dimethyl siloxane)는 입사에너지가 증가함에 따라 주름형태 구조 크기가 증가하는 것을 관찰하였고, 플라즈마 처리를 통해 표면에너지 및 마찰력 증가를 관찰하였다. 그리고 플라즈마 처리 후 표면에너지 변화인 FOTS(Trichloro-(1H,1H,2H,2H- perfluorooctyl) silane) 처리를 통하여 표면에너지 감소와 마찰력이 절반으로 감소하였다. 본 연구 결과는 나노구조에 따라 표면형상 및 표면에너지 변화에 따른 PDMS의 마찰력 변화를 확인하였고, 이러한 특성을 활용하여 마찰재와 피부 부착형 접착 패치에 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

A new steady approach has been developed to predict the transonic buffet onset of a high speed aircraft. In this paper, the flow is assumed to be steady for the buffet onset. The present study involves the analysis of a distinct change in the variation of various static aerodynamic parameters. These distinct changes indicates the onset of transonic buffet. Among the various aerodynamic parameters considered in this study, the variation in the center of pressure has shown to provide a clearest indicator of transonic buffet onset. This new steady approach can be applied to predict the transonic buffet onset for airfoils with shock induced separation bubble and for large swept wings with small aspect ratios. Good agreements have been obtained compared with unsteady wind tunnel buffet test data. Based on the results obtained the new steady approach, it can be newly suggested that the distinct slope changes of the center of pressure curve can be used as an indicator of buffet onset for the steady experimental method on a full aircraft configuration.

To overcome ground congestions due to growing number of cars, a lot of companies have proposed personal aerial vehicle (PAV). Among PAV, electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircrafts capable of vertical take-off and landing with electric power are drawing attention, and their configurations vary from multicopters to tilt ducted fans. This study tries to analyze the characteristics of each eVTOL design configurations. Parasite drag was calculated using component build up method for Vahana, Aurora, Volocopter representing each eVTOL PAV type of tilt-wing, compound, and multicopter. Wetted area and induced drag was calculated using OpenVSP and XFLR5 that are aircraft design and aerodynamic analysis software. The batteries used in the eVTOL PAV was assumed as Tesla 2170 batteries and flight ranges were calculated. Also, energy consumption and maximum flight time for the given mission profile including take-off and landing, cruising segments were compared for each eVTOL.
