This study is designed to manufacture the upgraded sound absorption concrete by using foamed concrete by using artificial light weight aggregate which raises the continuous void ratio to increase the sound absorption ratio and improve the strength. In manufacturing the sound absorption block, the pre-foaming form is applied to generate continuous voids, controlling the density by the addition of bubbles. It is general that the more porosity creates, the weaker strength becomes. Each of specimens are used for this experiment and measured their absorption ratio to examine the absorption property depending on frequency. As a results of experiment, it is evaluated that the absorption capacity of the sound absorption block has relation to compression strength and surface shape.

The shape of the blank greatly affects the formability and quality of the product after the stamping process. In this study, the geometry of the B-Pillar blank in the stamping process was optimized using design of experiments. The geometry of the blank for the B-pillar was simplified with the two length values and two radius values. The effects of design variables were studied through the Design of experiments. The stamping process of the B-pillar was predicted with the Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The optimized blank geometry was obtained. It results in the reduced maximum equivalent plastic strain. The local necking and the wrinkling did not occurred with the optimized blank geometry.

As the magnitude and frequency of earthquakes increase in Korea, interest in earthquake damage reduction technology has increased. Therefore, research on vibration damping devices that directly respond to seismic loads is being actively researched. After an earthquake, damage or destruction of the device occurs due to the yield of materials, and thus it takes considerable cost and time for restoration and replacement. To supplement the problems of the existing earthquake damage reduction technology, a study was conducted on the recentering smart damper that can be used continuously after an earthquake. In this study, the recentering smart damper that can be restored to its original shape after load removal was developed using superelastic shape memory alloy, pre-compressed polyurethane. General steel was commonly applied to verify the seismic performance of the superelastic shape memory alloy, and the performance of the smart damper was verified according to the amount of polyurethane pre-compressed

Specular reflection appears with metals, plastics, glasses and many other solid objects which are required to be inspected, assembled, moved, or processed automatically. Recongnizing such shiny objects with specular reflections is a hard problem for computer vision, since specular reflections appear, disappear, or change their shapes abruptly, due to tiny movements of the view. Traditionally, such specular reflections are discarded as annoying noise for recongnition purposes. In this paper a technique is represented for obtaining shapes of specular objects. The ring illumin- ation system employes a ring source which is positioned on the axis of the camera. The concept of the proposed method is that if specular objects are illuminated by the ring they show their own dis- tinctive specularity features in surface from which we can infer the shape of the object. A series of experiments are performed to evaluate the performance of this system.

In this study a nondimensional parameter, feed/land length(F/L) was introduced, and using this parameter, cutting performance and chip breaking characteristics of the groove and the land angle type chip formers were assessed. Specific cutting energy consumed and shape of broken chip with its breaking cycle time were appraised to find out the ranges of F/L value where efficient cutting and effective chip breaking could be achieved. C type chip was found out to be the most preferable in terms of cutting efficiency.

To diversify the area of application of UBET to the analysis of ring rolling which produces rings having more complex cross-sectional configuration, an element of triangular cross-section has been introduced and the corresponding kinematically admissible velocity field has been derived while considering the material flow between neighboring elements. The theoretical perdictions in roll torque and profile formation show good agreement with the experiments. The effect of process parameters such as feed rate and taper angle of the roll groove has been discussed.

In relation to the creation of an avatar that will become the main character in the metaverse environment, we design a system that automatically determines the shape of the avatar according to the situation and location by adjusting the details between immersion and privacy. In this study, as a way to control immersion in various virtual environments of the metaverse environment, we derive the hypothesis that immersion is determined by how detailed the original object is expressed. We conduct research that can adaptively control the expression information of avatars.

본 논문에서는 냉천 범람 원인을 두고 제기되고 있다는 다양한 주장을 검토했다. 냉천 설계강우를 초과하여 범람했다는 주장에 대해서, 강우량을 검토해본 바로는 설득이 안 되는 부분이 많았다. 특히 올해보다 더 많은 강우량을 기록했던 과거 호우 사상 시, 냉천이 범람하지 않았다는 것을 볼 때, 설득력이 부족하다. 만조와 집중 호우 시점이 겹치면서 범람이 발생했다는 주장은 합리적 추정으로 판단된다. 당시 최극조위가 역대 1위였으며, 역대 1위 강우량을 보인 1998년 대비 해수면의 높이가 55cm나 높았다는 데이터가 주장을 뒷받침한다. 마지막으로 교량의 부목 축적이 범람을 키웠다는 주장에 대해서 살펴봤다. 냉천교는 짧은 경간과 교각이 3개나 있어, 상류에서 내려오는 부목이 교량 구조물로 인해 축적될 잠재력이 큰 형상을 하고 있다. 교량에 부목이 축적되면 통수능이 저해하며 이로 인하여 냉천 범람이 가중되었을 가능성이 커 보인다. 기후변화로 인하여 해수위 상승위험은 점진적으로 증가할 것으로 판단되고 있는 시점에서 냉천과 같이 해안과 접하는 하천의 범람 위험 또한 증가할 것으로 판단되어, 해안 하천 관리에 큰 주의와 관심이 필요하다.

I proposed small ambulatory robot actuators using piezoelectric benders. In order to make the motion of the biomimetic robot legs similar to the movements of the cockroaches or similar insects, two pairs of legs in the diagonal direction in the four leg structures are required to make the same movement. And elliptical displacement is realized by taking into account horizontal and vertical displacement of multimode oscillations and driving them by electrical signals with differences step by step, for example of 90° the T-shaped robot actuator showed wide range of speed (From 2 mm/sec. up to 266 mm/sec.) and ability of transportation (up to 10 g with 50 mm/s). Locomotive performance of the robot was competitive to the preceding robots, and moreover, the modular type actuators of a segmented myriapods robot could be added and removed for different tasks or performances.

A computer program that simulates electric utility steam condensers was developed, and used to investigate the effects of enhanced tubes in steam condensers. The replacement of smooth tubes with enhanced tubes reduces the steam condensing temperature, and increases the efficiency of the electric utility. Therefore, a significant amount of power may be reserved without any modification of the utility. Three enhanced tubes, corrugated, low fin with internal ribs, and low fin with internal 3-D roughness, were considered. The results showed that there is an optimal internal roughness height. Low fin tubes with a 3-D roughness were superior to the other enhanced geometries. This was attributed to longitudinal vortices generated between the circumferential dimples. An additional 0.5 MW~1.3 MW was possible when smooth tubes were replaced with enhanced tubes in the 600 MW electric utility condenser. The additional power increased with increasing coolant temperature. More investigations on fouling, corrosion, and mechanical properties will be necessary for actual applications of enhanced tubes in electric utility condensers.
