This research is concerned with the dynamic modeling of the multi-purpose satellite with deployable solar arrays equipped with strain energy hinges(SEH). To this end, we proposed the use of the equivalent torsional spring for the SEH and derived the equations of motion assuming that the satellite and solar arrays are being rigid. We also considered the effect of the support string for the ground experiment model, which has been observed as a critical factor affecting the deployment in the ground experiments. From the numerical simulation results, it is found that solar arrays are deployed in a similar pattern but the hub motions are different because of the support strings. It was concluded that the non-gravity deployment of the solar arrays can be approximately simulated by the ground experimental facility. The effects of the support string are also investigated by varying the length of the string. It was found that the current length of the string is adequate for the ground experiment. Ground experimental results will follow.

It is important to keep the distribution of the raw material mixture constant, in order to maximize the effect of the pre-mix type repair mortar, and it is also necessary to increase the performance of the mixer in order to minimize the deviation of the product. In this study, three kinds of mixer used in production sites were used to make repair mortar and the properties of each mortar were examined. As a result, it is confirmed to the difference in properties of pre-mix type repair mortar differ depending on the type of mixer, and the fluidized zone mixer showed relatively good results. In addition, it is preferable to set the mixing time to about 10 minutes to 15 minutes in order to ensure workability and optimum physical properties.

To evaluate the numerical method in simulation of diffusion flames and to see the effects of strain rate and fuel concentration on the flame radius and thickness, the nonpremixed methane-air counterflow flames in microgravity were simulated axisymmetrically by using the MST Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). The $1000^{\circ}C$ based flame radius and thickness were investigated for the mole fraction of methane in the fuel stream, $X_m=20,\;50,\;and\;80\%$ and the global strain rates $a_g=20,\;60,\;and\;90s^{-1}$ for each mole fraction. The flame radius increased with the global strain rate while the flame thickness decreased linearly as the global strain rate increased. The flame radius decreased as the mole fraction increased, but it was not so sensitive to the mole fraction compared with the global strain rate. Since there was good agreement in the nondimensional flame thickness obtained with OPPDIF and FDS respectively, it was confirmed that FDS is capable of predicting well the counterflow flames in a wide range of strain rate and fuel concentration.

Dynamic behaviors of the deployable composite reflector antenna are numerically and experimentally investigated. Equations of the motion are formalized using Kane's equation by considering multibody systems with two degrees of freedom such as folding and twisting angles. To interpret structural deformations of the reflector antenna, the composite reflector is modeled using a beam model with the FSDT(First-order Shear Deformation Theory). To determine design parameters such as a torsional spring stiffness and a damping coefficient depending on deployment duration, an inverted pendulum model is simply applied. Based on the determined parameters, dynamic characteristics of the deployable reflector are investigated. In addition, its results are verified and compared through deployment tests using a gravity compensation device.

Infra-gravity waves (IGWs) with a period of 1~3 minutes are a factor that directly influences the motion analysis of moored ships inside a harbor and longshore sediment transport analysis. If significant levels of IGWs from far seas are transferred to a harbor and amplified, they may cause downtime of large ships and induce economic loss. In this study, transfer characteristics of the IGWs intruding from outside to inside Pohang New Harbor were analyzed using statistical analysis and transfer function of wave data measured at both outside and inside the harbor for around 5 years. Transfer characteristic analysis was limited to events where IGWs had wave heights above 0.1 m. The wave height distribution of inside the harbor was similar to that of outside the harbor, while the wave period variance of the former was larger than that of the latter. The parameters of the transfer function was optimally estimated according to each event. The estimated average RMS error of the wave height inside the harbor was around 0.013 m. The estimated parameters had a strong correlation with the linear combination information of IGW wave height, period, and direction (R = 0.95). The transfer function suggested in this study can quickly and easily estimate information on IGWs inside the harbor using IGW information predicted beforehand, and is expected to reduce damage due to unexpected restrictions on harbor usage.

This study was conducted to observe the effects of gravity and infra-gravity wave of detached submerged breakwater in the coast of Yeongnang-dong, Sokcho, as analyzing continuous wave data by performing field observations on the front area (W0) and rear area (W1, W2). Wave transmission coefficient ($K_t$) of submerged breakwater was analyzed in two parts, short-period wave (gravity wave) and infra-gravity wave. The wave energy reduction effect was analyzed and compared with the value of the design. In case of above wave height 2.0 m at the front area (W0) of the submerged breakwater, the short-period wave height at point W1 is reduced by about 65% and the short-period wave height at point W2 is reduced by about 59%. The depth of crest of submerged breakwater conducted in a sea area differs from the design, and the wave energy reduction effect is analyzed to be smaller than the design plan. The infra-gravity waves were amplified to 2.11 and 1.71 at the W1 and W2 points, respectively, and the wave height at W2 point was smaller than that at W1 point.

In this study, we will explain the design, test results and analysis of system for measuring the small mass in the microgravity environment. It is so difficult to measure the mass by sensing the gravity as the ground in the microgravity environment. The suggested method is to measure the resonance frequency of a sample. The resonance frequency may be measured as a function of mass. If we know the resonance frequency of the mass, we can guess the mass by detecting the resonance frequency. Piezoelectric ceramics have the characteristics that resonance frequency is changed by total mass which are its mass and the attached mass. This system have some problems but we verified that we can measure the unknown mass using the resonance frequency as the mass.

Squeezed light는 중력파 검출기의 양자 잡음을 줄여 측정의 민감도를 향상시키기 위해 사용하는 양자 광원이다. Squeezed light는 광학적 손실에 민감하기 때문에 중력파를 측정하기 위해서는 정밀한 mode matching이 필요하다. 하지만 mode mismatching은 실제 실험 상황에서 동적으로, 그리고 무작위로 나타나므로 정밀하게 조정하기 어렵다. Mode mismatching에 견고한 squeezed light를 만들기 위해서는 multimode squeezed light가 필요하다. Multimode squeezed light를 만드는 방법으로 는 self-imaging cavity를 이용하여 생성하는 방법이 대표적으로 알려져 있다. 이 발표에서는 self-imaging cavity 기반으로 만든 optical parametric oscillator(OPO) 에서 생성된 squeezed light가 기존 OPO로 생성한 squeezed light 보다 여러 spatial mode mismatching (위치, 방향, 크기 빗맞음)에 대해 견고함을 소개한다.

To investigate long-period wave responses in Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon, field measurements were made for long-and short-period waves and current velocities using a Directional Waverider, a ultrasonic-type wave gauge, four pressure-type wave gauges, and a current meter. From the data analysis, it was found that the Helmholtz resonant periods of Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon are about 13.6 and 54.5 minutes, respectively, and the dominant period of wave induced current in the passage between Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon is about 55.2 minutes which depends on Helmholtz resonant condition of the Cheongcho lagoon. It was also found that the energy level of the far-infra-gravity waves during storm conditions is very high compared with that during calm sea conditions. To investigate relationships between far-infra-gravity waves and short-period waves at offshore station, regression analyses were carried out especially for 1) heights, 2) periods, 3) direction and height, 4) height and period between short-and far-infra-gravity waves, respectively. The results showed that the long-period wave height is highly correlated with the short-period wave height. However, no special trend was found for the other relations. In the future far-infra-gravity wave heights on return period around Sokcho Harbor region can be suggested by using extreme value analyses of long term measured data.
