핵연료 펠렛이 장입되어 있는 원전연료봉 피복관은 핵분열성 물질의 외부 유출에 대한 일차 방호벽 역할을 하므로 원전의 안전성을 위해서는 피복관의 구조건전성 확보가 매우 중요하다. 고온, 고압의 운전 조건 속에서 연료봉 피복관은 산화막이 생성 상장하여 연료봉을 취성 파괴시킬 가능성이 있으므로 이를 가동중에 비파괴적으로 측정할 수 있는 방법을 개발할 필요가 있다. 산화막이 존재하는 지르칼로이 피복관에 대한 음파의 공명산란을 이론적으로 모델링하고 수치해석을 수행하였다. 산화막이 피복된 원통형 쉘의 공명산란에서 공명 원주파의 전파 특성은 산화막의 존재 여부와 그 두께 증가에 따라 크게 변화한다. 수치 해석 결과 제 1차 반대칭 (A$_1$) 원주파의 특정 부분파의 경우에는 산화막의 존재에도 불구하고 위상속도가 일정한 특이성을 보였다. 이러한 위상속도 특성을 실험을 통하여 확인하였으며 이 현상을 이용하여 산화막의 두께를 측정할 수 있는 새로운 비파괴 평가 방법을 제안하였다.

송전선로에 절연물로 사용되는 애자는 설치 이후 장시간 사용에 따라 고전압 스트레스, 기계적 스트레스, 열 및 환경 스트레스 등으로 열화가 진행되기 때문에 안정적인 전력설비 운영을 위하여 활건 애자 비파괴 열화 상태 점검이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 비파괴 상태 진단 감시 기술인 주파수 응답 함수 측정을 통한 고유 진동수 분석을 통하여 현재 활선 애자로 사용되고 있는 NGK210, KRI210, NGK300 및 KRI300 4가지 종류 애자의 동특성 실험을 수행하였으며, 이를 통하여 애자의 결함이 발생하였을 때 고유진동수 변화를 분석하였다.

A nondestructive technique for measuring the refractive index of a simple lens is described. The shearing interferornetric technique is used for determining the focal length of a lens by immersing it in various liquids. The lens itself acts as autocollimator and decollimator. An equation for the defocusing error has been theoretically deduced and experimentally verified. The wave aberration has also been investigated for the different values of the focal length.

In our country, historically beautiful and significant wooden architectures are preserved as the cultural properties. For a long time, however, the architectures are often exposed to rough environmental conditions, such as weathering, insect attack, etc. This may lead to deterioration of structural integrity of the architectures. Therefore, it is necessary to diagnose wooden architectures in advance. In this paper, the possibility of a subsurface-penetrating radar(SPR) fur non-destructive testing(NDT) of wooden architectures is investigated by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) simulation and actual laboratory measurement.

경제성과 압접성능의 우수성 때문에 일반 산업기계, 방위산업기계 및 우주항공기계등의 부품생산에 응용되고 있는 마찰 용접에 있어서, 현재 주 관심사 중의 하나는 용접강도에 대한 신뢰성 높은 공정중 비파괴 검출이며 이들의 실용화를 위한 정량적 해석이다. 그러나 이러한 연구는 아직 개발 완성되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는, AE법에 의한 용접강도의 공정중 비파괴적 QC시스템 개발을 최종 목적으로 한 설계자료를 얻기 위하여, 이종강의 봉과 봉, 관과 관의 마찰용접강도와 AE 총누적량에 용접조건이 미치는 영향이 실험적으로 조사되었고, 회전 속도를 매개 변수로 하여 용접강도와 AE 총누적량과의 정량관계가 수립되었다.

In contrast to the machineries using rolling element bearings, systems with journal bearings generally operate in large scale and under severe loading condition such as steam generator turbines and internal combustion engines. Failure of the bearings in these machineries can result in the system breakdown. To avoid the time consuming repair and considerable economic loss, the detection of incipient failure in journal bearings becomes very important. In this experimental approach, acoustic emission monitoring is applied to the detection of incipient failure caused by several types of abnormal operating condition most probable in the journal bearing systems. It has been known that the intervention of foreign materials, insufficient lubrication and misassembly etc. are principal factors to cause bearing failure and distress. The experiment was conducted under such designed conditions as hard particles in the lubrication layer, insufficient lubrication, and metallic contact in the simulated journal bearing system. The results showed that acoustic emission could be an effective tool to detect the incipient failure in journal bearings.

This work is devoted to the technique application of lock-in infrared Thermography in the shipbuilding and ocean engineering industry. For this purpose, an exploratory study to find the optimized test conditions is carried out by the design of experiments. It has been confirmed to be useful method that the phase contrast images were quantified by a reference image and weighted by defect hole size. Illuminated optical intensity of lower or medium strength give a good result for getting a phase contrast image. In order to get a good phase contrast image, lock-in frequency factors should be high in proportion to the illuminated optical intensity. The integration time of infrared camera should have been inversely proportional to the optical intensity. The other hand, the difference of specimen materials gave a slightly biased results not being discriminative reasoning.

A series of experimental work has been conducted to evaluate the capability of microstrip patch antenna system in detecting delamination in fiber reinforced Plastic (FRP) sheet reinforced concrete. For that purpose, a prototype microstrip patch antenna was developed with 15 GHz center frequency and 1 GHz bandwidth. For the comparison, a horn antenna with 15 GHz center frequency and 10 GHz bandwidth was used for the measurements of the same specimens. The laboratory sire specimens have the dimensions of 600 mm (length) $\times$ 600 mm (width) $\times$ 50mm (thickness) with a series of delaminations of 300 mm (length) $\times$ 300mm (width) $\times$ 5, 10, 15 mm (thickness). FRP of 1.5 mm thickness and epoxy of 3 mm thickness were placed on the top of artificially created delamination to represent actual FRP reinforced concrete condition. In all cases, the delamination has deen successfully identified. Also, it was shown that imaging results in microstrip patch antenna were improved by signal processing.

Detecting rebars in side the concrete structures is one of the important steps in assessing condition of the structure. In order to determine the detection capability of locating rebars inside the concrete, two types of equipments, which use radar system and electromagnetic system each, were tested. Four concrete specimens which have the dimensions of $1,000mm(length){\times}300mm(width)$ with different thickness and diameter of steel bars were applied. A series of testing was achieved after drying in air for 90 days, immersed in water for 3, 24, 48 hour and 28 day. From the experimental outcome, it is shown that error is increased as the diameter of rebar enlarge in case of electromagnetic method. In case of radar method, the detection of embedded rebars in deep is good in the view of reliability. As moisture content increase from 3.6% to 5.5%, the relative permittivity of concrete test specimens show tendency to increase, too. Therefore, it is shown that moisture content is one of the major contributing factors to determine the relative permittivity. And the relative permittivity regression equation is suggested.

Nowadays, the necessity of the NDT technique for concrete structure has been increased due to maintenance of infra-structure. With this reason, NDT detecting technique has been considered as a effective maintenance method to prevent the rapid degradation of the infra-structure. In this study, to investigate the internal defect of concrete structure, ultrasonic detection device and radar equipment was applied then tested in laboratory and field. In the result of the experimental test, the internal cavity and steel arrangement can be detected and it was possible to adopt the ultrasonic detection method to the maintenance of concrete structure. And an algorithm for performing the maintenance procedure of concrete structure applying ultrasonic detection device and radar equipment was developed and suggested in this study.
