Using the finite element method and Taguchi's design technique, the displacement in vertical direction, von Mises stress, and strain energy of the corrugation damper have been analyzed as functions of the extruded length and the thickness of the corrugation damper, and the upper and lower corner radii of the damper. The optimized profile design elements of a corrugation damper are very important for increasing a strain energy absorption capacity of a helmet structure, which is attacked by impulsive external forces. In this study, the optimized design data based on the Taguchi's method was computed as a corrugation damper length of L = 20 mm, a damper thickness of t = 2 mm, the upper corner radius of $R_1=4\;mm$, and the lower corner radius of $R_2=3\;mm$. The optimized design parameters of a corrugation damper indicated that the thickness and extruded length of a corrugation damper may affect to increase the strain energy, which absorbs the impact forces of the helmet.

최근 방사선 진단 영역에 이용되고 있는 증감지는 입사된 방사선의 감도를 증가시키기 위해 형광체를 사용하고 있으며, 외부의 에너지를 흡수하여 빛으로 방출하는 역할을 한다. 이는 방사선 검출기, 디스플레이, 의료기기 등 다양한 분야에 활용되고 있다. 필름에 X선을 노출 할 경우 형광체의 사용 유무에 따라 방사선 흡수 효율에 영향을 미치며, 이는 발광 효율 및 감도에 주요한 인자로 작용한다. 현재 상용화되어 있는 형광체는 낮은 발광 효율로 인한 한계를 가지므로, 발광 효율 향상을 위하여 제작 구조에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이 중 반사막을 활용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 형광체의 제조를 위하여 보편적으로 이용하고 있는 스크린프린팅 방법에서 건조 공정을 수행 시 균일도가 감소하는 현상이 발생한다. 이러한 현상은 반사막의 증착을 불균일하게 만드는 원인으로 작용하고 빛의 산란을 초래하는 현상을 초래한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 증착 시 투명도 저하에 따라 반사율이 증가되는 반사막 성질을 가지며, 방수성 및 절연성과 같은 보호층 특성을 지닌 유기성 투명 박막 페를린에 대하여 연구하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 화학적 증기 증착법(Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD)을 이용하여 투명 필름의 상단에 페를린을 코팅한 시편과 코팅하지 않은 시편으로 구분하여 제작하였고, 상단에 스크핀프린팅 방법을 활용하여 형광체를 도포 하였다. 시편 제작 후 실험은 시편을 필름 상단에 위치시키고, 일반진단에너지 대역(Model-SF 80)의 X선을 조사하였다. 이 후 현상기(model-pro14)를 통해 현상된 필름에 나타난 광학적 농도(Optical Density, O.D)를 농도계(Fluke Biomedical Nuclear Associates Densitometer)로 측정하였는데, 불확실성을 줄이기 위하여 총 5회를 측정하여 그 중 2번째로 높은 값을 도출하였다. 측정 결과, 페를린을 코팅한 형광체에서는 1.71의 O.D 값이 측정되었고, 페를린을 코팅하지 않은 형광체에서는 1.43의 O.D 값이 측정되었다. 이를 이용하여 투명도를 산출한 결과 상대적으로 약 1.76% 차이가 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 페를린 활용 시 환자의 피폭 선량 저감화 및 해상력 개선을 도모할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, a vertical drop test was carried out to identify the performance of flexible wire rope rockfall protection fence by 100 kJ rockfall energy according to ETAG 027. The flexible wire rope, which consists of wire rope and spring. is especially enhanced the elasticity and flexibility so that it can be longer elongated when the rope is impacted by rockfall compared to original wire rope, and that results longer increase of contact time between rockfall and wire rope and increase rockfall energy absorption capability and decreases rockfall impact force. The test results shows that the plastic deformation occurred in middle post and the final deflection of the middle post was 1.15 m, which is lower than 2.0 m determined by ETAG 027. This vertical test verified the flexible wire rope rockfall protection fence can successfully absorb 102.9 kJ rockfall energy.

Hybrid composite strut tower was designed to prevent permanent deformation of upper mount by the impact from the uneven road. When exceeding energy absorption capacity of tire and suspension systems, residual impact is delivered to upper mount. Especially, in case of using high-rigidity suspension system for high driving performance, the conventional strut tower can be easily deformed due to reduction of energy absorption capacity of suspension systems. In this study, optimal design of hybrid composite strut tower which made of back-up metal and carbon fiber reinforced composite was suggested by using finite element analysis, and low velocity impact test was performed to investigate their dynamic characteristics. Also, 3D measuring and ultra c-scanning methods were carried out to diagnose damages in the strut towers.

In order to manage nuclear power plants safely and cost effectively, it is necessary to develop integrity evaluation methodologies for the main components. Recently, the integrity evaluation techniques were broadly studied regarding the license renewal of nuclear power plants which were approaching their design lives. Since the integrity evaluation process requires special knowledges and complicated calculation procedures, it has been allowed only to experts in the specified area. In this paper, an integrity evaluation system for reactor pressure vessel was developed. RVIES(Reactor Vessel Integrity Evaluation System) provides four specific integrity evaluation procedures covering PTS(Pressurized Thermal Shock) analysis, P-T(Pressure-Temperature) limit curve generation, USE(Upper Shelf Energy) analysis and Fatigue analysis. Each module was verified by comparing with published results.

In this study, the net solar radiation fluxes at the surface are retrieved by updating an existing algorithm to be applicable for MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations, in which linear relationships between the solar radiation reflected from the top of atmosphere and the net surface solar radiation are employed. The results of this study have been evaluated through intercomparison with existing Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) data products and ground-based data from pyranometers at Gangneung-Wonju National University (GWNU) and the Southern Great Plains (SGP) of observatory of Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) site. Prior to the comparison of the surface radiation energy in relation to the energy balance of the earth, the radiation energy of the upper part of the atmosphere was compared. As a result, the coefficient of determination was over 0.9, showing considerable similarity, but the Root-Mean-Square-Deviation (RMSD) value was somewhat different, and the downward and net solar-radiation energy also showed similar results. The surface solar radiation data measured from pyranometers at Gangneung-Wonju National University (GWNU) and Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) observatory are used to validate the solar radiation data produced in this study. When compared to the GWNU, The results of this study show smaller RMSD values than CERES data, showing slightly better agreements with the surface data. On the other hand, when compared with the data from ARM SGP observatory, the results of this study bear slightly larger RMSD values than those for CERES. The downward and net solar radiation estimated by the algorithm of this study at a high spatial resolution are expected to be very useful in the near future after refinements on the identified problems, especially for those area without ground measurements of solar radiation.

This study quantitatively evaluated the performance improvement of a circular reinforced concrete pier under dynamic load with strengthening using a steel plate. Various three-dimensional elements were applied using the finite element program ABAQUS. The analytical parameters included the ratios of the steel cover length to the pier's total height and the ratios of the steel cover thickness to the pier diameter for inelastic-nonlinear analysis. The lower part of the pier had fixed boundary conditions, and lateral repetitive loads were applied at the top of the pier. The pier was investigated to evaluate the dynamic performance based on the load-displacement curve, stress-strain curve, ductility, energy absorption capability, and energy ratio. The yield and ultimate loads of piers with steel covers increased by 3.76 times, and the energy absorption capability increased by 4 times due to the confinement effects caused by the steel plate. A plastic hinge part of the column with a steel plate improved the ductility, and the thicker the steel plate was, the greater the energy absorption capacity. This study shows that the reinforced pier should be improved in terms of the seismic performance.

CdTe single crystals were grown by vertical Bridgman method using double furnace with two siliconit heating elements. When the peak temperature of the upper furnace was fixed at $1150^{\circ}C$ and that of the lower furnace was $800^{\circ}C$, the temperature gradient was about $22.5^{\circ}C$/cm. The lattice constant $a_0$ was $6.482\AA$ from the X-ray diffraction and the band gap energy obtained from the optical absorption experiment at room temperature was 1.478 eV. PL spectrum showed that the bound exciton emission peak was resolved into ($A^0,X$) (1.5902, 1.5887 eV), ($h\;D^0$) (1.5918 eV) and ($D^0,X$ (1.5928, 1.5932 eV), and we have also calculated binding energy and ionization energy of the neutral donor and acceptor.
