Acceptance level random vibration and life firing test for development model of 1 N-class monopropellant thruster have been performed. From the results of random vibration, the natural frequency of the dual thurst module composed of 1 N-class development model thrusters was higher than the part level requirement(>100 Hz) and the structural robustness was verified. Thrust decrease of steady sate was below 7% and thrust instability was within ${\pm}5%$ in the life firing test using over 20 kg propellant throughput. The computerized tomography for catalyst bed showed a less than 7% of catalyst loss and it revealed the design appropriateness of the current thruster development model.

Test results including the variation of propellant-inlet pressure, pulsed thrust, and environment vacuum with the accompanying thermal responses are presented for the pulse-mode operation of a set of monopropellant hydrazine thrusters producing $0.95lb_f$ of nominal steady-state thrust at an inlet pressure of 350 psia. The test data are reduced into the impulse bit, specific impulse, and force centroid that are the factors typically characterizing pulse-mode performance of small rocket engines. With a scrutiny to the performance parameters, their comparison to the reference criteria of 1 lbf standard monopropellant rocket engine are successfully made.

In this paper, prediction of progressive interlaminar fracture in curved composite laminates under mode I loading was described. The prediction of progressive interlaminar fracture in curved composite laminates was conducted using cohesive zone model(CZM) in ABAQUS V6.13. Interlaminar fracture toughness used as input parameters in CZM was obtained through mode I, mode II and mixed mode I/II tests. The behaviors of progressive interlaminar fracture for curved composite laminates showed a good agreement between experimental and numerical results.

This paper studies new estimation method for state of charge (SOC) of the hybrid electric vehicle lithium battery using sliding mode observer. A simple R-C Lithium battery modeling technique is established and the errors caused by simple modeling was compensated by the sliding mode observer. The structure of the sliding mode observer is simple, but it shows robust control property against modeling errors and uncertainties. The performance of the system has been verified by the UUDS test. The test results of the proposed observer system shows robust tracking performance under real driving environments.

As the interest on the air pollution is gradually rising up at home and abroad, automotive and fuel researchers have been working on the exhaust emission reduction from vehicles through a lot of approaches, which consist of new engine design, innovative after-treatment systems, using clean (eco-friendly alternative) fuels and fuel quality improvement. This research has brought forward various main issues : whether PM emissions should be regulated for diesel and gasoline vehicles and whether gasoline and LPG powered vehicles can be further neglected from PM emission inventories. Finally, the greenhouse gas regulation has been discussed including automotive emission regulation. The greenhouse gas and emissions of automotive had many problem that cause of ambient pollution, health effects. Based on various test modes and ambient conditions, this paper discusses the characteristics of LPG on exhaust emissions and greenhouse gases. Also, this paper assessed emission characteristics due to the test temperature. These test temperature were performed by dividing the temperature of the test mode and the lowest local temperature in winter. Through this study, the correlation of vehicle test mode and ambient condition, exhaust emission, greenhouse gas emission was analyzed.

In 2017, multimodal transportation tests for evaluating road, sea, and rail transport were performed by research institutes in the US, Spain, and the Republic of Korea. In this study, acceleration and strain data determined through road and sea tests were analyzed. It was investigated whether the load generated for each transport mode was amplified or attenuated according to the load transfer path. From the results, it was confirmed that the load transfer characteristics differed according to the transportation mode and loading path. The effects of strain determined through each test on the structural integrity of the spent nuclear fuel were also investigated. It was found that the magnitude of the measured strain had a negligible effect on the structural integrity of the spent nuclear fuel, considering its fatigue strength. The results for the acceleration and strain data analyses obtained in this study will be useful for scheduled domestic transportation tests under normal transport conditions.

A semi-monocoque truncated cone structure, which is a main structure for the payload adapter of KSLV-I, was designed. Static test was performed to confirm the reliability of the cone structure under the design loads. Strains and displacements are measured during four load cases; the compressive axial, pure bending, pure shear, and combined loading conditions. The results showed that the cone structure satisfies the design requirements. An equivalent axial load was applied to the cone structure so that the global buckling of the cone structure occurred. The measured buckling load was compared with the predicted one by finite element method. The results show a good agreement.

For the correct estimation of air pollutant emission from automobiles which is the largest contributor of metropolitan area air pollution, the total pollutant emission from automobiles should be estimated accurately. Nationwide emissions from automobiles, such as CO, HC and NOx, are calculated by using emission factor and total VMT(vehicle miles traveled). The emission factors were derived from the emissions data on chassis dynamometer with test modes which represent the real driving patterns. In the present study, test modes to derive the emission factors for light duty vehicles are developed by using the real driving pattern data for the urban, suburban and express way.
