본 논문에서 개발한 시스템은 원자력 발전소의 금속파편감시계통(Loose parts monitoring system, LPMS)에서 충격신호의 탐지를 위해 사용되는 하드웨어와 관련이 있는 트리거 판단을 위한 보드이다. LPMS는 원자로 내부에서 발생하는 금속 파편이나 이물질의 존재 여부와 위치를 정확히 찾아내 원자력 발전소의 불필요한 가동중단이나 예기치 않은 안전 사고를 예방 할 수 있는 시스템이다. 본 논문에서 개발한 DAM(Data acquisition module)보드는 LPMS의 하드웨어 중에서 입력된 신호를 디지털로 변환하여 충격신호의 트리거 여부를 판단하는 기능을 한다. DAM은 디지털 필터와 트리거 판단을 위한 알고리즘이 DSP에서 실시간으로 처리되어 DMS의 기능을 업그레이드 하였다. 개발된 시스템은 기존 외국 장비에 비하여 하드웨어 성능이 대폭 향상되었으며 하드웨어의 완전 국산화 개발이라는 특징이 있다.

본 연구에서는 원자력 발전소내 금속 파편 탐지 시스템의 성능 향상을 위한 적응 잡음제거에 관하여 서술한다. 현재 사용중인 원전내 금속 파편 탐지 시스템은 배경잡음의 영향으로 그 이용 효율이 매우 낮은 현실이다. 이런 문제점을 해결하는 한 방법으로써 적응 잡음 제거 방식을 이용하여 배경잡음의 영향을 최소화하였다. 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 통하여 그 성능을 입증하였으며, 특히 배경잡음속에 충격신호가 묻혀있는 경우에도 뛰어난 탐지 효과를 보였다.

The objective of IM rocket motor is to minimize the probability of inadvertent initiation and severity of subsequent collateral damage, hence it is important to define personnel and equipment survivability to a rocket motor accident. The violent response probability associated with shock, impact and thermal effects be minimized. And during production, transportation/storage and stack of rocket motor, sympathetic detonation, giving severe effects of the propagation of adverse reaction on its surroundings, be reduced. Hence Reaction type also based on reaction results of the overpressure, fragment throw and heat flux.

In this paper, a real time diagnostic algorithm for estimating the impact location by loose parts is proposed. It is composed of two modules such as the alarm discrimination module (ADM) and the impact-location estimation module(IEM). First, ADM decides whether the detected signal that triggers the alarm is the impact signal by loose parts or the noise signal. Second, IEM by use of the arrival time method estimates the impact location of loose parts. In order to validate the application of this method, the test experiment with a mock-up (flat board and reactor) system is performed. The experimental results show the efficiency of this algorithm even under high level noise and potential application to Loose Part Monitoring System (LPMS) for improving diagnosis capability in nuclear power plants.

In this study, we investigate the dispersion behavior of debris and debris cloud generated by high-velocity impacts using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique. The projectile and target plate were made of aluminum, and we confirm the validity of the SPH technique by comparing the measured major and minor axis lengths of the debris cloud in the reference with the predicted values obtained through the SPH analysis. We perform high-velocity impact and fracture analysis based on the verified SPH technique within the velocity ranges of 1.5~4 km/s, and we evaluate the dispersion behavior of debris induced by the impact in terms of its kinetic energy. The maximum dispersion radius of the debris on the witness plates located behind the target plate was increased with increasing impact velocity. We derive an empirical equation that is capable of predicting the dispersion radius, and we found that 95％ of the total kinetic energy of the debris was concentrated within 50％ of the maximum dispersion radius.

차량충돌에 대하여 운전자의 안전확보를 위하여 새로 개발한 철재 중앙분리대에 대한 안전성 분석을 위하여 인체모형을 탑재한 실물차량 충돌실험을 실시하였다. 인체모형의 두부와 흉부, 대퇴부 및 차량의 무게중심점에서 가속도와 충격하중을 계측하여 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리에 차량충돌시 운전자의 안전성을 검증한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. 1) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리는 콘크리트 중앙분리대 방호울타리에 비해 운전자의 신체 상해치와 차량파괴 등에 있어서 뛰어난 충격흡수성능을 보여주었다. 2) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리는 콘크리트 중앙분리대 방호울타리의 경우 빈번히 발생하는 차량전복과 같은 2차사고의 유발 가능성이 전혀 없는 구조적 안정성을 보여주었다. 3) 경량의 차량충돌에 대하여 자체 탄성영역내에서 충격을 흡수하여 유지보수 측면에서 유리함을 나타냈다. 4) 충돌 수 충돌차량에 대한 차량유도성능이 뛰어났으며, 차량의 충돌후 이탈각도는 충돌각도의 60% 이내로 나타났다. 5) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리로부터 분리된 파편이 거의 없어 도로소통에 지장을 초래하지 않는다.

Mass estimation analysis of loose-parts in pressure vessel is necessary for the structural integrity assessment of pressure boundary in nuclear power plants. Mass of loose-parts can be generally estimated from the peak values and the center frequency of impact signals. Magnitude of impact signals is, however, inevitably attenuated according to the traveling distance of the signals and depending on the frequencies. Attenuation rate must be therefore carefully compensated for the precise estimation of loose-part mass. This paper proposes a new compensation method for the attenuation rate based on Bessel function instead of Hankel function in conventional method which has a limitation of usage in near the impact location. It was verified that the suggested compensating equation based on the Bessel function can be applied to the attenuation rate calculation without any limitation.

Penetrator with enhanced lateral effect (PELE) is a novel projectile that does not require dynamite and a fuse. It comprises a high-density jacket that is closed at its rear end and filled with a low-density filling material. To study the explosion characteristics of PELE using AUTODYN-3D code, the calculation models of the projectile body and the bullet target were developed and the process of penetrating an aluminum-2024 alloy target using PELE was simulated. The scattering characteristics after PELE penetrated the aluminum-2024 alloy target were studied for different filling materials. The explicit finite element analysis of PELE fragmentation was implemented with the stochastic failure criterion in AUTODYN-3D code. As the filling expanded, the fragments gained velocity and dispersed laterally, increasing the damage area considerably. The number and shape of PELE fragments differed depending on the impact pressure of the filling that fragmented during the penetration and lateral dispersion processes.

Concrete is an outstanding material in terms of its impact and blast resistance performance. However, there a limitation of concrete is its risk of collapse due to the brittle failure and spalling. Increasing the thickness of members was used as a method to enhance the protective performance of concrete, despite the resulting inefficient space. To solve this problem, different types of fiber reinforced concrete were developed. Recently, another type of fiber reinforced concrete is also being developed and applied as a material that offers protection against impacts and blasts by increasing the flexural toughness of concrete. In this study, the test was conducted to evaluate the impact resistance performance of fiber reinforced concrete and mortar according to impact of high-velocity projectile. A concrete T-wall was also tested to evaluate its protective performance from fragment by 155mm-thick artillery shell. The test results revealed that improving flexural strength through fiber reinforcement inhibited cracks and spalling of rear, and spalling of front by high-velocity impact. As such, it is expected to improve the protective performance of the T-wall and reduce the thickness of the member.

Failure of Kevlar29/Phenolic composite plate under high velocity impact of FSP(Fragment Simulation Projectile) is investigated using a non-linear explicit finite element code, LS-DYNA. Composite laminate and impactor are idealized by solid element and interface between laminas are modeled by tied-break element in LS-DYNA. Interaction between impactor and laminate is simulated face-to-face eroding contact algorithm. When the stress level meets a failure criteria, the layer in the element is eroded. Numerical results are verified by existing test results.
