Recently, pyrotechnic separation nut has attracted a considerable attention because of its shock reduction effect among various pyrotechnic mechanical devices. However, its bolt loosening behavior under transverse vibration has not been studied sufficiently, since segmented nuts are utilized instead of conventional nut in pyrotechnic separation nut. With the background, bolt loosening analyses are carried out referring to Junker vibration test. The analysis procedure consists of two steps. The first step is the bolt fastening step, screwing the bolt by fastening torque. The second step is the bolt loosening step under transverse vibration. Through the procedure, bolt loosening behaviors are obtained, and the effect of clearance on loosening behavior is closely investigated for reliable design of pyrotechnic separation nut.

The clamping characteristics of segmented nuts in pyrotechnic separation nut are investigated using finite element analysis. When the segmented nuts are used to clamp objects, a constraint cylinder is necessary to prevent the segmented nuts from spreading out to the radial direction. During the manufacturing process, a clearance is usually introduced between the outer diameter of the segmented nuts and the inner diameter of the constraint cylinder. Therefore to find out the effect of the clearance, proper finite element modeling method is suggested to describe the clamping procedure appropriately. In addition, finite element analysis with the clearance of 0.00, 0.03, 0.06, and 0.10 mm are performed. From the analysis results, the clamping characteristics of segmented nuts are investigated according to the clearance, and several factors which should be considered to design a reliable pyrotechnic separation nut are figured out.

The currently considered pyrotechnic separation nut is separated through the complicated process, because it has many internal moving parts and two variable-volume chambers connected by the vent hole. Therefore, it has many design parameters. Some of these are the contact angles between internal moving parts, the masses of the internal moving parts, the inner diameter of the push rod protrusion, the initial volumes of the chambers, the mass of the explosive charge, and the diameter of the vent hole. To improve the pyrotechnic separation nut, it is necessary to understand how the behavior of the separation nut is changed according to design parameters. In this point of view, parametric studies are carried out using the previously proposed prediction model for pyrotechnic separation nut behaviors. In each case, the parameter of the interest is changed while the others are kept unchanged. From the results, it is investigated how each design parameter influences the separation behavior.

Pyrotechnic devices are widely used for space appendages. However, a cube satellite requirements do not permit the use of explosive pyrotechnic device. A nichrome burn wire release has typically been used for holding and release of deployable appendages of the cube satellite due to its simplicity and low cost. However, relatively low mechanical constraint force and system complexity for application of multi-deployable systems are disadvantages of the conventional mechanism. To overcome these drawbacks, we have developed a segmented nut type holding and release mechanism based on the nichrome burn wire release. The great advantages of the mechanism are much lower shock level and larger constraint force than the conventional mechanism using pyro. Flight model for on-orbit verification was developed and verified through release function test, vibration test and thermal vacuum test.

The functional performance of the mechanism has been verified through release function test, static load test and shock level measurement test.

Heating wire cutting type separation mechanism has been widely used for cube satellite applications due to its design constraints such as small size of $10cm{\times}10cm{\times}10cm$ and light weight of less than 1kg. In addition, usage of pyro technic device is not allowed for cube satellite application. The conventional methods have some disadvantages of relatively small mechanical constraint force and the system complexity for the multi-deployable systems. In this paper, a separation nut type non-explosive separation mechanism has been proposed and investigated. The effectiveness of the design has been verified through the qualification tests of the mechanism.

본 논문은 웹 지리정보시스템 구축을 위한 응용프로그램 개발의 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 응용프로그램을 클라이언트로부터 분리시켜 서버 측에서 관리하는 방법이다. 클라이언트 시스템으로부터 응용프로그램을 분리하면 클라이언트 시스템이 사용자의 플랫폼으로 전송될 때의 네트워크 오버헤드가 감소하고 클라이언트 시스템을 수정하지 않고도 새로운 응용프로그램을 추가하거나 기존의 응용프로그램을 수정할 수 있게 된다. 하지만 분리된 응용프로그램과 클라이언트는 여전히 입출력을 연동할 수 있어야 하며, 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 응용프로그램 입출력 기술언어를 정의하여 사용한다. 또한 서버 측에 분리된 응용 프로그램의 관리를 위해 응용프로그램 관리자가 필요하게 된다. 응용프로그램 관리자는 응용프로그램의 수행을 담당하며 응용프로그램과 클라이너트 사이의 입출력 게이트웨이의 역할을 담당하게 된다.

Welded head studs are mainly used as shear connectors to bond steel girders and concrete slabs in steel-concrete composite bridges. For welded shear connectors, environmental problems include noise and scattering dust which are generated during the removal of damaged or aged slabs. Therefore, it is necessary to develop demountable shear connectors that can easily replace aged concrete slabs for efficient maintenance and thus for better management of environmental problems and life cycle costs. The buried nut method is commonly studied in relation to bolted shear connectors, but this method is not used in civil structures such as bridges due to low rigidity, low shear resistance, and increased initial slip. In this study, in order to mitigate these problems, a demountable bolted shear connector is proposed in which the buried nut is integrated into the stud column and has a tapered shape at the bottom of an enlarged column shank. To verify the performance of the proposed demountable stud bolts in terms of static shear strength and slip displacement, a horizontal shear test was conducted, with the performance outcomes compared to those of conventional welded studs. It was confirmed that the proposed demountable bolted shear connector is capable of excellent shear performance and that it satisfies the slip displacement and ductility design criteria, meaning that it is feasible as a replacement for existing welding studs.
