PES (Programmable Electronic System) is used by software development for the train control system. PES has been widely used in real world and consists of hardware, firmware and application software. The PES are easily apply to many applications because its implementation has high flexibility. Many safety critical functions are realized through software in safety critical system. Normally, it is difficult to detect failures for PES system because the PES is too sophisticated to identify sources of the failure. So, the reliability analysis is needed by using software fault tolerance techniques. Currently, there are the recovery block, distributed recovery block, N-version programming, N self-checking programming in fault tolerance techniques. In this paper, the models of recovery block and N-version programming in software fault tolerance techniques are suggested by using the Markov model. Also, the reliability in the train control system is analyzed through changing time. The fault occupancy rates of the program, adjustment test and voter are stationary. So, the relation between time and reliability is presented by using Matlab program. In the result of reliability, the reliability of recovery block is more high than N-version programming in case of the same number of substitution block.

In this study the mechanical performance of the new wave dissipating block is evaluated through experiment and numerical analysis. Also, by selecting adequate reinforcement, the improvement of the structural performance is examined. The reinforcement is designed by predicting the amount of tensile force and the location where the tensile stress develops in the new wave dissipating block through numerical analysis. The new wave dissipating block is reinforced with the ordinary steel bars and the fiber reinforced plastic(FRP) bars which have advantages in ocean environment in terms of corrosion and fatigue. The test result shows that the fracture resistance of the un-reinforced concrete block is 350 kN which is about 6.2 times that of the weight of the block. All the test blocks which are reinforced by either steel of FRP bars show strength capacity of over 900 kN which is the maximum load of the test equipment. Although the single reinforcement with larger-diameter bars has advantage in terms of construction convenience, it is recommended to use multiple number of smaller-diameter bars in order to reduce the crack width.

본 논문에서는 임의 형상의 블록 다각형 박막 고유 진동해석을 위해 파 형태의 해석해를 사용하는 새로운 기법을 제시하였다. 파 형태의 해석해를 임의 형상의 박막에 사용하는 데 있어 나타날 수 있는 시도해의 종속적인 문제점을 지적하고, 이를 극복하는 방안을 제시하였다. 여러 수치 예제를 통해 본 기법의 유용성과 타당성을 보였고, 특히 이 기법은 특정 주파수 대역에서 고유 진동수를 찾고자 할 때, 매우 효율적임을 알 수 있다. 본 논문은 기초 연구로서 제한된 모든 변이 고정된 블록 다각형 형상의 박막의 고유 진동 해석만 수행하였지만, 이 기법을 확장, 발전시켜 나가면, 어떠한 형상이나 경계조건을 갖는 박막뿐만 아니라 평판의 진동 해석에도 적용할 수 있으리라 기대하며, 이를 위한 연구가 진행중이다.

지하 굴착공동의 천장면에 형성되는 잠재적 키블록의 존재성과 운동학적 거동 양상 및 안정성을 해석적으로 분석할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 천장에서 측정된 절리들의 상대적인 위치와 방향성 자료를 이용하여 데이타베이스를 구축하였으며, 굴착설계도와 연계된 전산절리도를 작성하였다. 잠재적 키블록의 존재성과 거동양상은 사면체로 가정된 블록 옆면의 3차원 공간에서의 평면식을 절리의 방향성에 의거하여 구성하며 대수학적으로 분석되었다. 블록의 안정성 분석은 자중에 의해 미끄러짐이 발생되는 블록면의 공간 기하학적 특성을 고려하여 수행하였다. 개발된 분석시스템의 현장활용성을 검증하기 위하여 언양 자수정동굴에서 키블록 형성 및 거동양상을 조사하여 분석결과와 비교하였다.

본 연구에서는 동적통행시간예측을 위한 하나의 방법으로 블록밀도법을 도입하여 가로상의 일정한 구간을 세분화하고 몇 개의 블록으로 분할한 후 교통류를 유체근사화시키고 각 블록의 밀도를 일정시간 마다 갱신해 나가는 방법을 채택하였다. 즉, 각 블록에서 주어진 밀도의 초기치와 최하류부의 블록에서 유출교통량을 이용하여 일정시간 간격으로 모든 블록에서의 밀도를 수정해 가는 유체의 연속방정식의 개념을 도입하였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 첨단교통시스템에 적용될 동적통행시간 예측을 위해 기존의 연속교통류만을 대상으로 하던 것에서 벗어나 신호등을 포함한 단속교통류를 대상으로 하였다. 또한 교통류의 저밀도 구간과 고밀도 구간을 분리하여 Ele복합모형을 적용하여 교통류를 해석하고 가급적 실제 상황과 유사하게 근접시키고자 하였다. 이 이론을 근거로 구축된 모델에 실제 현장에서 얻어진 교통량, 밀도, 속도 등의 자료들을 투입하고 통행시간의 예측을 도모하였다.

Overlap, excessive wide gaps, and errors between blocks during erection process increases cost and man-hour. In this paper, a system to simulate the assembly process is suggested and a plane block assembly of welding deformation with gravity is simulated in consideration of assembly order, deformations and errors occurring in the cutting and forming processes are not considered and welding deformations are acquired by equivalent stiffness and load method from experiments and hull double bottom plane block is assembled on a assembly order by panel method. It is certified that according to the order of assembly, intermediate product shape affects rigidity which affects welding deformations. Assembly order must be considered in the assembly process. It is certified that the gravity has important role in the assembly process.

In this study, dynamic load and dynamic contact force between a building block and wire ropes of a goliath crane are calculated during lifting or turn-over of a building block for the design of an optimal lug arrangement system. In addition, a multibody dynamics kernel for implementing the system were developed. In the multibody dynamics kernel, the equations of motion are constructed using recursive formulation. To evaluate the applicability of the developed kernels, the interferences and dynamic contact force between the building block and wire ropes were calculated and then the hull structural analysis for the block was performed using the calculation result.

Nano-diamond (ND) was added during the carbon block preparation process to increase the thermal conductivity of the carbon block. Added ND controlled the generated pore of carbon block due to the volatilization of the binder pitch during the carbonization process. The ND was added to the kneading process of coke and binder pitch, and carbon blocks were prepared by pressing and carbonization. As the amount of added ND increased, the ND ratio of the carbon block increased. The added ND made a pass-way for generated gas by volatilizing the binder pitch during the carbonization process, increasing the density of the carbon block and reducing the porosity. The thermal conductivity of the carbon block was improved by increased density, lowered porosity, and the high thermal conductivity of added ND.

DDA (Discontinuous Deformation Anlaysis) is one of the latest numerical analysis which has merits of both FEM and DEM. In this research a new edge-to-edge contact algorithm was applied on DDA. With adoption of new edge-to-edge contact state definition, sub-algorithm was improved about open-close iteration, contact state judge, contact detecting, and friction forces acting on joints. Newly applied DDA was verified based on two different cases. The DDA results show good agreement with numerically predicted one.

This study investigates free vibration characteristics of new energy harvesting multi-layer block structures with different geometrical shapes using solid and shell finite elements and evaluate their piezoelectric effect on experiments. The two and three-dimensional finite element (FE) delamination models for block structures described in this paper is attractive not only because it shows excellent accuracy in analysis but also it shows the entire vibration mode shape. The FE model using ABAQUS is used for studying free vibrations of multi-layer block structures for various tip mass and PZT. In particular, new results reported in this paper are focused on the significant effects of the global and local vibration modes for various parameters, such as size of block shape, existence of tip mass and hole, and location of tip mass and PZT. In addition, we evaluate the power generation capacity of developed energy block structures through a laboratory-scale experiment.
