The bow flare structure of a ship is designed considering wave impact loads largely caused by relative motion of the ship and wave at rough sea. Empirical design is still used because impact phenomenon and structural behaviour due to wave impact load can not examined accurately. The objective of this study is, as the first step, to predict wave impact loads giving the structural damages to the bow flare structure from the damage data inversely, using dynamic nonlinear finite element code LS/DYNA3D, and to perform various parametric studies of wave impact pressure curve for its characteristics, such as peak height, duration time, tail height, rise time, etc.. The followings were obtained from this study: Dynamic structural responses against wave impact loads are largely affected by impact pressure impulse whose amount during duration time until peak deformation is very important.

Pyrotechnic separation devices have been widely used as holding and release mechanism for deployable appendage. However, pyro-shock can cause temporal or permanent damage on shock sensitive components such as electronics, mechanism, and brittle components. This study proposed a low-stiffness blade based passive shock absorber using a multi-layered stiffener laminated with viscoelastic acrylic tapes for reducing transmitted pyro-shock upon explosion of pyrotechnic separation devices. The multi-layered structure with viscoelastic tape has high-damping characteristics to effectively secure structural integrity of low-stiffness blades under the launch environment. The design effectiveness was verified through a shock test by dropping a pendulum. The structural integrity of the shock absorber under a launch environment was evaluated through structural analysis under load conditions with a deployable payload.

This study deals with a method to identify structural damage using the combined finite element method (FEM) and the advanced damage search technique. The novelty of this study is the application of plates with arbitrary damage shapes and their response due to the anomalies in a structure subjected to impact loading. The technique described in this paper may allow us not only to detect the stiffness distribution of the damaged areas but also to find locations and the extent of damage. To demonstrate the feasibility of the method, the algorithm is applied to a steel thin plate structures with an arbitrary damage shape. The results demonstrate the excellencies of the method from the standpoints of computation efficiency as well as its ability to investigate the arbitrary stiffness reductions.

A study was designed to clarify the influence of the hippocampus upon tolerance by electric shock. Forty-eight male rats were used, of which 14 rats had their hippocampal tissue on both sides removed through an opening in the parieto-occipital cortex (hippocampal group), 17 rats received damage to the parieto-occipital cortex only (cortical control group), and 17 rats served as normal control animals. After 24 hours' fasting with water ad libitum, each animal was restrained on a plate with added electric shock (4 mA A.C., 1.5 sec in a duration, and once per minute in average) to the tail for the last 24 hours without food and water. The mortality in each animal group and the mean survival time of the dead animal during the repitition of electric shock were calculated. Results obtained were as follows: 1. The mortality was lower significantly in the hippocampal group than in the two control groups. 2. The mean survival time of the dead animal was longer insignificantly in the hippocampal group than in the two control groups. The inference from the above results is that the hippocampus exerts a inhibitory influence upon tolerance by electric shock.

원자력발전소의 금속파편감시계통(LPMS : Loose Parts Monitoring System)은 원자로냉각재계통 내부에 존재할 수 있는 금속 이물질과 구조물 이완부에 의한 충격신호를 조기에 검출하여 원자로 구조물 및 핵연료 손상, 제어봉 구동장애 등을 미연에 방지하여 발전소 안전운전을 담당하는 중요 감시설비이다. LPMS는 금속 이물질이나 구조물 이완부에 의한 충격신호를 검출하기 위해 충격파에 민감한 가속도계를 원자로냉각재계통 중 금속파편이 자연적으로 모일 수 있는 각 구역의 표면에 최소 2개 이상 설치되어 있다. 원전은 규제요건에 따라 설비의 건전성 확인을 위해 24시간, 7일, 31일, 91일 마다 각 1회의 설비 건전성 시험을 수행하며, 계획예방정비기간 중에는 가속도계 주변에서 강구나 스프링 타격기를 이용한 충격시험을 통해 설비 전체의 건전성을 확인하고 있다. 설비 건전성 확인을 위해 경상운전 중에 수행하는 설비 건전성 시험에는 설비 특성상 가속도계 및 전치증폭기의 건전성을 확인할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 경상운전 중 가속도계와 전치증폭기의 건전성을 확인할 수 있는 기법을 제시하고자 한다.

During artillery fire, an excessive level of impulse noise propagating in the form of a storm wave is generated. Since the sound of impact from the fire affects the stability of the surrounding structures, the artillery and the structures must be separated from each other by the proper distance to avoid damages from friendly fire. However, if they have already been built within the distance, it is possible to prevent the damages by building sound barriers between them. In this study, the proper separation distance between the artillery and the structure was calculated, and the insertion losses due to various heights and shapes of the sound barrier were simulated by using the BEM(Boundary Element Method), and conclusively the optimal sound barrier was selected.
