An overhead catenary system is the one of the main subjects for increasing speed in electric railway. When a vehicle increases the speed over 350km/h, vibrations and wave propagation reflections occur severely. Therefore, the system suitable for the speed are needed. A wave propagation speed of contact wire is the main criteria to determine the tension for the system. Therefore, a train speed is restricted below 70% of wave propagation speed of it in European railway code. In this study, we measured a strain and uplift of contact wire while HEMU-430X tain is operated for the speed-up trial test in Kyungbu high-speed railway. The measured strain and uplift are analyzed with wave propagation speed according to the speed-up. The more a train speed reaches to a propagation speed, the more measured strain is high. Through the study, an experimental approach is performed about the code which a train speed is restricted below 70% of wave propagation speed of it.

In this paper, the nonlinear behavior of ultrasonic wave in partially degraded material is considered. For this aim, FDM(finite difference method) model for the nonlinear wave equation was developed with the restriction to the 1-D longitudinal wave motion and how the partial degradation in material contributes to the detected nonlinear parameter was analyzed quantitatively. In order to verify the rightness of this simulation method, the relation between the detected nonlinear parameter and the continuous distribution of degradation obtained from simulation was compared with experiment results and the simulation and experiment results showed similar tendency. It can be known from simulation result that the degree of degradation, the range of degradation and the continuous distribution of degradation have strong correlation with the detected nonlinear parameter. As it was possible in these simulations that only special part is assumed as degraded one, the quantitative evaluation of partially degraded material may be obtained by using this method.

A method of metal-hydride thermal conversion that is an alternative to the traditional method is proposed and investigated. The unit heat pump consists of reactors of two different metal-hydrides are distributed inside parallel channels filled with porous media. The channels are blown through with a heat-transfer agent. Thermal conversion develops as a set of successive heat waves. By a numerical-modeling method it is shown that the maximum thermal effect is attained in synchronous motion of the heat wave and the heat source (or sink) that accompanies the phase transition in the succession of unit metal-hydride pumps. The results are presented in a form convenient for prediction of the thermal and energy efficiency of the proposed thermal-conversion method in real devices.

In this paper, the fundamental equations are developed for the pulsatile laminar flow generated by changing the oscillatory flow with $0{\leq}f{\leq}48Hz$ into a steady one with $0{\leq}Re{\leq}2500$ in a rigid circular pipe. Analytical solutions for the wave propagation factor k, the axial distributions of cross-sectional mean velocity $u_m$ and pressure p are schematically derived and confirmed experimentally. The axial distributions of centerline velocity and pressure were measured by using Pitot-static tubes and strain gauge type pressure transducers, respectively. The cross-sectional mean velocity was calculated from the centerline velocity by applying the parabolic distribution of the laminar flow and it was confirmed by using the ultrasonic flowmeter. It was found that the axial distributions of cross-sectional mean velocity and pressure agree well with theoretical ones and depend only on the Reynolds number Re and angular velocity $\omega$.

Soil temperature was measured from the surface to 40 cm depth at three stations with different heights in tidal flat of Gomso Bay, west coast of Korea, for one month in every season 2004 to examine the thermal structure and the variation. Mean temperature in surface layer was higher in summer and lower in winter than in lower layer, reflecting the seasonal variation of vertically propagating structure of temperature by heating and cooling from the tidal flat surface. Standard deviation of temperature decreased from the surface to lower layer. Periodic variations of solar radiation energy and tide mainly caused short term variation of soil temperature, which was also intermittently influenced by precipitation and wind. Time series analysis showed the power spectral energy peaks at the periods of 24, 12 and 8 hours, and the strongest peak appeared at 24 hour period. These peaks can be interpreted as temperature waves forced by variations of solar radiation, diurnal tide and interaction of both variations, respectively. EOF analysis showed that the first and the second modes resolved 96% of variation of vertical temperature structure. The first mode was interpreted as the heating antl cooling from tidal flat surface and the second mode as the effect of phase lag produced by temperature wave propagation in the soil. The phase of heat transfer by 24 hour period wave, analyzed by cross spectrum, showed that mean phase difference of the temperature wave increased almost linearly with the soil depth. The time lags by the phase difference from surface to 10, 20 and 40cm were 3.2,6.5 and 9.8 hours, respectively. Vertical thermal diffusivity of temperature wave of 24 hour period was estimated using one dimensional thermal diffusion model. Average diffusivity over the soil depths and seasons resulted in $0.70{\times}10^{-6}m^2/s$ at the middle station and $0.57{\times}10^{-6}m^2/s$ at the lowest station. The depth-averaged diffusivity was large in spring and small in summer and the seasonal mean diffusivity vertically increased from 2 cm to 10 cm and decreased from 10 cm to 40 cm. Thermal propagation speeds were estimated by $8.75{\times}10^{-4}cm/s,\;3.8{\times}10{-4}cm/s,\;and\;1.7{\times}10^{-4}cm/s$ from 2 cm to 10 cm, 20 cm and 40 cm, respectively, indicating the speed reduction with depth increasing from the surface.

In this paper an analytical study is carried out to improve the capacity of absorbing boundary using dashpot, one of the most widely used absorbing boundaries in FEM. Using 2-D harmonic plane wave equation, absorbing boundary condition is modified to maximize its capacity according to the incident angle. Validity of the absorbing boundary conditions which is modified is investigated by adopting the solution of Miller and Pursey. The Miller and Pursey's problem is then numerically simulated using the finite element method. The absorption ratios are calculated by comparing the displacements at the absorbing boundary to those at the free field without the absorbing boundary. The numerical study is carried out through comparison of displacement at the interior region and the boundary of the numerical model.

A study has been made on the fabrication of a dual mode(a longitudinal and shear mode) ultrasonic sensor using a single PZT piezoelectric ceramic element. We investigated the mechanism of the dual mode sensor that generated both of the longitudinal and the shear waves simultaneously with the single PZT element. Through the analysis of analytic wave propagation equations, all the possible crystal cuts have been examined to determine appropriate Euler transformation angles for efficient excitations of the dual modes. We studied the performance of a PZT element as a function of its rotation angle so that its efficiency is optimized to excite the two waves of equal strength. Experimental examination of the waveform on a delay line(STS303) setup confirms that the ultrasonic sensor can transmit and detect both longitudinal and shear waves simultaneously.

사용자가 원하는 3D 사운드 혹은 소리의 공간감을 원하는 대로 재현할 수 있는 오디오 시스템은 오랜 기간 동안 인류가 가지고 싶었던 꿈의 기계였다. 그러나 과연 개인 혹은 사용자가 원하는 3D 사운드라는 것이 무엇이며 어떻게 정의하여야 하는지는 명확하지 않다. 이것은 매우 주관적인 개념일 뿐만 아니라 개인에 따라 다를 수 있으며, 그 평가에 대한 객관적인 방법 또한 존재하지 않는다. 관련된 연구를 살펴보면, 원하는 소리의 파동 전파 자체를 시공간 상에서 물리적으로 재현하는 WFS(Wave Field Synthesis)나 Ambisonics, 또는 머리전달함수(HRTF: Head Related Transfer Function)를 기반으로 한 많은 연구들이 있다. 이렇게 재현된 음장(sound field)을 보면 이들이 인지되고 평가되는 등의 객관화를 위하여는 청취 환경에 따라 그 특성이 바뀌고 동일한 환경에서도 청취자에 따라 다르게 인지되는 근본적인 문제점을 가지고 있다. 음장 재현 방법의 이러한 근본적인 문제는 놀랍게도 과거의 스테레오 시스템에서 볼 수 있는 밸런스 노브(balance knob)로부터 그 해결의 실마리를 찾을 수 있다. 밸런스 노브는 보편적인 최적의 소리를 찾는 대신에 청취자가 원하는 음향 효과를 얻을 때까지 직접적으로 소리를 청취하고, 스스로 조절하여 평가할 수 있는 매개체의 역할을 수행한다. 만일 밸런스 노브와 같이 청취자가 원하는 3D 사운드를 스스로 평가하고 조절하기 위한 방법을 마련할 수 있다면? 즉, 청취자가 시공간적으로 원하는 3D 사운드를 실시간으로 청취하고 변화시킬 수 있는 인터페이스를 구현할 수 있다면? 과연 그러한 것이 어떻게 가능할 수 있는지 체계적인 검토가 이루어질 수 있다면 매우 좋을 것이다. 본 고는 이러한 것을 가능케 할 수 있는 즉, 청취자가 자유 자재로 원하는 음장을 형성할 수 있는 렌더링 기법 및 즉각적인 피드백이 가능한 인터페이스를 소개하고 있다. 인터페이스는 현재까지 오디오 시스템에서 주로 사용되는 주파수 이퀄라이져(frequency equalizer)와 매우 유사한 특징이 있다. 이러한 점을 감안하여 "Spatial Equalizer$^{(R)}$"라는 이름을 붙여 보았다. Spatial Equalizer$^{(R)}$는 공간 상에 하나의 점 또는 다수의 점으로 표시되는 가상 음원을 사용자가 조종하여 원 소리의 공간감을 제어할 수 있도록 구성되어 있다. 공간 상에 다수의 점 음원들의 위치를 변화시키거나 크기를 변화시킴으로써 청취자가 원하는 공간감을 구현할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 중요한 것은 종전의 이퀄라이져와 같이 Spatial Equalizer$^{(R)}$에 의해 형성되는 음장이 어떤 객관적인 척도에 의해서 평가되는 대신 사용자에 의해 직접 주관적으로 평가되고, 선택된다는 점이다.
