Recently, there were significantly increased cracks failure for external fuel tank horizontal fin of F-5 aircraft. In this paper, the dynamic behavior of horizontal fin was to quantitate by using Finite Element Method. To achieve this goal, the fatigue analysis for time and frequeucy domain has been performed by using the dynamic load spectrum of speed brake. In conclusion, it was proved that fatigue life of the horizontal fin was reduced by the influence of dynamic behavior.

두 개의 긴 수직평판핀을 가진 등온수평원통으로 부터의 자연대류 열전달을 2차원 유한차분법에 의한 수치해석으로 연구하였다. 축방향의 두 수직평판핀을 가진 수평원통으로 부터의 열전달은 Ra=$10^{6}$, Pr=5 및 무차원 $K_{f}$t/KD=0.5인 경우에 보통 원통에서의 열전도보다 5.32% 증가되었다. Ra와 Pr가 증가하면 국소핀 누셀트수는 증가하고 무차원핀 온도는 감소된다. 그 러나 무차원핀 변수가 증가하면 국소핀 누셀트수와 무차원핀 온도분포는 증가된다. 최대국소핀 누셀트수는 Ra=$10^{6}$인 경우에 상향핀과 하향핀의 (r-r$_{0}$)=0.1-0.2에서 존재한다. 수 직핀을 가진 원통주위에서 부력 유도된 유동은 보통 원통에서 보다 더욱 활발하였다. 따라서 Ra=$10^{6}$ , Pr=5인 경우에 핀 근방에서의 무차원 무차원반경 방향 속도는 보통원통의 경 우보다 큰 값을 가진다.다.다.

In this paper, we examined the problems of the flare operation of tactic maneuvering flight of fighter aircraft with 150GL center external fuel tank and proposed the possible solution of it's operation. The damage scope of horizontal fin of fuel tank and flare trajectory when the flare ejected from the maneuvering aircraft were analyzed by the wind tunnel test and the numerical analysis. We investigated the two different option to avoid the damage of fin; i) the adjustment of flare dispenser angle and ii) the change of horizontal fin's shape. For the considering of practical operation of present system, we chose the second option. We estimated the drop safety of external fuel tank with redesigned fin by the wind tunnel experiments.

An numerical and experimental study has been performed on natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal heat exchanger tube with a fin. At s bare tube, by increasing $C_{T}$ (tube conduction parameter), mean Nusselt number and outer wall temperature are apparently increased at $C_{T}$.leq.300, slightly increased at $C_{T}$>300 and they can be represented in an exponential function of $C_{T}$. Natural convection heat transfer characteristics for the tube with a fin at given Rayleigh number are well agreed by those for an isothermal cylinder at a modified Rayleigh number. The local fin Nusselt number of the tube with a downward fin is much higher than that of the tube with an upward fin. The comparisons between numerical and experimental results showed good agreement.reement.

Patch antennas with an array of pins interconnecting the patch and the ground (Pin array patch antennas) are fabricated and their characteristics are measured. The radiation characteristics of pin array patch antennas are compared to those of conventional patch antennas. The suppressions of the radiation in horizontal directions in E-plane and H-plane are more than 10 dB and 4 dB, respectively. The forward radiation is increased, while the backward radiation is decreased. The directivity is improved because the half-power beamwidth of radiation patterns in both E-plane and H-plane is reduced. The resonance frequency of a pin array patch antenna increases as the pin radius of a pin amy patch antenna increases. An optimum pin radius of a pin array patch antenna exists for the maximum suppression of the radiation in horizontal directions.

In this work the replacement material for magnesium alloy was investigated and an optimized design was suggested for the horizontal fin of a fighter's external fuel tank. For the replacement of magnesium alloy, Aluminum alloy, AL 2034-T351, was selected by considering material properties and its procurement. The strength and fracture toughness properties of AL 2034-T351 are stronger than those of magnesium alloy, but the specific weight of AL 2034-T351 is heavier than that of magnesium alloy by 65%. To meet the allowable limit of C.G. shift in the tank, the design of horizontal fin was optimized by reducing the original shape by 20% and resizing the maximum thickness to 7 mm. From the results of the static and dynamic stress analysis for improving the safety factor of the joint section and the joint hole, the radius of curvature in the aft joint section of the new fin was designed as 8.5mm.

The patch antennas with an array of pins with excellent radiation characteristics are investigated for several substrate thicknesses. The patch length of a pin array patch antenna for the maximum suppression of radiation in the horizontal plane decreases as the substrate thickness increases. The radiation in the horizontal plane of a pin array patch antenna is very small compared to that of a conventional patch antenna. The increase of forward radiation and the decrease of backward radiation of a pin array patch are obtained compared to those of a conventional patch antenna. The half-power beamwidth of E-plane radiation pattern of a pin array patch antenna is narrow compared to that of a conventional patch antenna so that the directivity is improved.

The kinematic variables for swimming and fin-swimming start motions were analyzed and compared using 3-dimensional cinematography. For the swimming start, the arm segment moved towards the upper rear and trunk towards the upper front followed by a descent towards the lower front, while the fin-swimming start motion showed movement towards the lower front for all segments. The total body center of gravity for the swimming start showed horizontal movement far to the front followed by a rapid descent while the fin-swimming start showed close movement towards the lower front in a short period of time. Upon entering the water, the center of gravity for swimming showed high vertical velocities while fin swimming had high horizontal velocities. For both swimming and fin swimming, the upper extremity velocity had more influence on the total center of gravity velocity than the lower extremities. Flexion of the hip joint was observed before the jump for the fin swimming start while the swimming start showed two flexions in mid-air succeeding the jump. The flexion and extension movements at the knee joint during the fin-swimming start motion were shown to be larger and more rapid than those of fin-swimming.

The present work is to analyze the longitudinal static stability and the drop trajectory of fighter aircraft's external fuel tank, of which horizontal fin is modified as the 20% scale down size compared with the original one. The analytical results to the pitching stability of external fuel tank using a thin airfoil's aerodynamic force data show the corresponding tendency to results of wind tunnel experiment. Results of trajectory simulation by the 6 degree of freedom equations of motion, comparing with drop trajectories of wind tunnel experiment, are shown that aircraft's attitude affects strongly on horizontal movement but not on the vertical movement. Those results give the reliability to aircraft safety when the external fuel tank with the 20% reduced horizontal fins is released from aircraft based on the flight manual.

2차원 탄소나노재료인 그래핀은 우수한 물성으로 인하여 광범위한 분야로 응용이 가능할 것으로 예상되어 많은 주목을 받아왔다. 이러한 그래핀의 응용가능성을 실현시키기 위해서는 보다 손쉽고 신뢰할 수 있는 합성방법의 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 그래핀의 합성 방법들로 흑연을 물리적 및 화학적으로 박리하거나, 특정 결정표면 위에 방향성 성장의 흑연화를 통한 합성, 그리고 열화학기상증착법(Thermal chemical vapor deposition; T-CVD) 등의 합성방법들이 제기되었다. 이중 T-CVD법은 대면적으로 두께의 균일성이 높은 그래핀을 합성하기 위한 가장 적합한 방법으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 T-CVD공정은 원료 가스인 탄화수소가스를 효율적으로 분해하기 위하여 $1000^{\circ}C$부근의 온공정이 요구되며, 이는 산업적인 응용의 측면에서 그래핀의 접근성을 제한한다. 따라서 대면적으로 고품질의 그래핀을 저온합성 할 수 있는 공정의 개발은 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는, 플라즈마를 이용하여 원료가스를 효율적으로 분해함으로써 그래핀의 저온합성을 도모하였다. 퀄츠 튜브로 구성된 수평형 합성장치는 플라즈마 방전영역과 T-CVD 영역으로 구분되며, 방전되는 유도결합 플라즈마는 원료가스를 효율적으로 분해하는 역할을 한다. 합성을 위한 기판과 원료가스로는 각각 전자빔 증착법을 통하여 300nm 두께의 니켈 박막이 증착된 실리콘 웨이퍼와 메탄가스를 이용하였다. 저온합성공정의 변수로는 인가전력과 합성시간으로 설정하였으며, 공정변수의 영향을 확인함으로써 그래핀의 저온합성 메커니즘을 고찰하였다. 연구결과, 인가전력이 증가되고 합성시간이 길어짐에 따라 원료가스의 분해효율과 공급되는 탄소원자의 반응시간이 보장되어 그래핀의 합성온도가 저하가능함을 확인하였으며, $400^{\circ}C$에서 다층 그래핀이 합성됨을 확인하였다. 또한 플라즈마 변수의 보다 정밀한 제어를 통해 합성온도의 저온화와 그래핀의 결정성 향상이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.
