More than 70% of the accidents that occur on offshore installations stem from hydrocarbon explosions and fires, which, because they involve blast effects and heat, are extremely hazardous and have serious consequences in terms of human health, structural safety, and the surrounding environment. Blast barriers are integral structures in a typical offshore topside module to protect personnel and safety critical equipment by preventing the escalation of events caused by hydrocarbon explosions. Many researchers have shown the adequacy of the simple design tool commonly used by the offshore industry for the analysis and design of blast walls. However, limited information is available for corrugated blast wall design with explosion impact response characteristics. Therefore, this paper presents a parametric study on the explosion impact response characteristics of an offshore installation's stainless steel corrugated blast wall. This paperalso investigates and recommends design parameters for the structural design of a corrugated blast wall based on a nonlinear structural analysis of experiential results.

스텔스 기능성 섬유의 위장은 주간의 경우, 육안 및 망원경 관측에 의해 결정되며 주변자연환경 color matching과 패턴이 핵심 스텔스 요인으로 구성되고, 가시광선 영역 스텔스로 표현할 수 있으며, 군 위장 체계에 있어 기본이 되는 기술 분야로 모든 군 위장제품에 활용되는 필수적인 기술 분야이다. 따라서 가시영역의 위장은 다양한 색상의 위장포와 포의 펀칭 등에 의한 파형특성을 부여하고 주위환경과 특성 조화를 이룸으로써 대상을 위장한다. 주요인자는 색상별 색도, 색차이다. 야간 위장은 근적외선 관측 장비의 탐지에 의해 결정되며 주변자연환경 NIR 반사율과 위장제품의 NIR 반사율 저하/제어기술이 핵심 스텔스 요인으로 구성되고, 근적외선(NIR) 영역 스텔스로 표시할 수 있으며, NIR 스텔스는 대개의 경우 기본적으로 섬유제품이 NIR 영역에서 높은 반사율을 나타내므로 NIR 반사율 저하/제어기술이 핵심이라 할 수 있다. 따라서 근적외선 영역(600~1250nm)의 적외선 반사특성을 산림지역의 반사특성과 조화시켜 위장효과를 부여한다. 위장포에서는 적외선 흡수 색소를 사용하여 적절한 반사특성을 나타나게 해야 한다. 위장용섬유가 detector의 탐지에서 벗어나려면 현재 700~1250nm의 근적외선파장영역에서 주변환경과 유사한 반사율을 지녀야한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 "숲 연구소" 및 서울대학교 "지반공학연구실"의 자문을 받아서 우리나라에서 가장 많이 존재하는 자연환경시료를 선정하여, 선정된 시료의 근적외선영역에서의 반사율을 분석하였다. 자연시료는 산간, 해안, 평야지형으로 각각 구분하여 주변 자연지형에 따른 자연시료의 근적외선영역의 반사율값을 비교하였다. 북한산에서 산간지형의 시료를 채취하였고, 해안지형의 시료는 강화도 동막해수욕장 부근, 평야지형의 시료는 인천 강화도 평야지역에서 채취하여 분석하였다. 비교분석한 지형별 자연시료의 근적외선 반사율값의 데이터베이스구축을 통하여 기존의 위장복과의 비교 적용 및 차후 개선사항 등을 검토하고자 한다.

Underground flexible pipes for electric cables are subject to external loads and surrounding soil pressure. Particularly, strain of flexible pipes is of great concern in terms of safety and maintenance of electric cables. In this paper, stress and strain of flexible pipes with two types of installation gap, ie, l0cm and naught, were compared to investigate the structural integrity of pipes from actual field test. The effect of degree of compaction and burial depth were also investigated to simulate the variety of construction situation. The results of the field test show that the strain criteria were satisfied under the burial depths of 80cm, 100cm and 120cm regardless of installation gap.

The standard penetration test (SPT) has been widely used because of its usability, economy, and many correlations with soil properties among other factors. In SPT, hammer energy is an important factor to evaluate and calibrate N values. To measure hammer energy, an instrumented SPT rod was developed considering that stress waves transferring on rods during SPT driving are the same as stress waves transferring on piles due to pile driving. Using this idea, an instrumented SPT rod with a pile driving analyzer was applied as a pile capacity prediction tool in this study. In order to evaluate this method, SPT and dynamic cone tests with the instrumented SPT rod were conducted and also 2 pile load tests were performed on pre-bored steel pipe piles at the same test site. End bearings were predicted by CAPWAP analysis on force and velocity waves from dynamic cone penetration tests and SPT. Comparing these predicted end bearings with static pile load tests, a new prediction method of the end bearing capacity using the instrumented SPT rod was proposed.

We designed the flyback planar transformer, which had 8 W capacity, with 70 V input voltage and 8.2 V output voltage for the establishment of design method and the confirmation of application possibility. The numerical value of inductance measured under the switching frequency of 120 kHz was 1650 $\mu$H, which was the inductance efficiency of'85∼87% against theoretical value. The A.C. resistance of primary and secondary coil was 4.2 Ω and 0.25 Ω respectively, On the other hand, the quality factor for each wound numbers showed quite a high value of 158 and 75 respectively. And the Coupling Factor was 0.96∼0.97 under 120 kHz switching frequency. The inductance rapidly increased as the thickness of the core plane increased until it became 1.4 mm but under the thickness more than 1.4 mm, there was no substantial change. Therefore, the critical value of the plane thickness of core was 1.4 mm. And the shape of the output wave of the planar transformer at 70V input voltage was a stable square wave.

$CO_2$ gas shielded arc welding has been characterized with its harsh arc compared to Ar-based shielding gases and with its high level of spattere specially in welding current range of 250~300 amperes. In this range of welding current, the metal transfer mode showed to be changed from short circuit to globular with the increase of welding voltage resulting in so-called the transitional mode in which both modes of transfer appeared together. To characterize the transitional mode, the short circuit events were divided into two groups, i.e. normal short circuit (N.S.C) which has short circuit time $(t_s)$ over 2msec and instantaneous short circuit (I.S.C) of $t_s$$\leq$2msec. The experimental results showed that the number of N.S.C decreased almost linearly with the increase of welding voltage and appeared to be not related with spatter generation rate. However I.S.C became to be pronounced in the transitional condition and its number reached the maximum value at around 29.0 volts. Considering the relation with the spatter generation rate, it was found that the number of I.S.C had a very strong correlation with the spatter generation rate of the transitional condition. It was further demonstrated that spatter generation rate decreased quite linearly with the decrease of I.S.C frequency. It implies that I.S.C is the most important waveform factor controlling the spatter generation of the transitional mode, i.e. in the middle range of welding current. Based on these results, It was discussed that in the transitional mode the basic concept of waveform control for suppressing spatter generation would be different from the one applied for typical short circuit transfer mode of low welding current.

This paper evaluates the feasibility of use of high-strength steel for soil-metal corrugated steel structures. Two specifications, the AASHTO(2004) and the CHBDC(2000), were compared and the scientific background of equations for the buckling stability in those specifications were investigated to figure out the governing factors for buckling strength of structures. Numerous finite element analyses for round-pipe type of soil-metal corrugated steel structures were carried out with considering the elastic-plastic relationship of a material and the geometrical non-linearity, as well as the various design variables, such as span length, depths of soil cover, section properties, tensile strength and backfill conditions. Buckling strength equation of the CHBDC(2000) is still valid and conservative for both normal and high-strength steel soil-metal corrugated steel structures, and the buckling strength increases with the use of hight-strengths steel.

In-situ capping is a method to stabilize contaminated sediments by isolation. Few researches on the in-situ capping have been performed, although the engineering approach is still required to prevent the release of contaminants. In this study, hydraulic model test were conducted by using a wave generator to observe the change of cap thickness which is important factor in design of capping. Sands with particle size between 0.075 to 2 mm as capping materials were used to observe the change of capping thickness by waves. The experimental results show that the surface of capping materials is similar to wave form. The more wave height increases, the more erosion of capping materials increases.

A study on the analysis of underground ground condition using 3D-GPR exploration was carried out in this paper. The test bed was constructed similar to the field, and the detection analysis was carried out for each depth of cavity and underground burial. Through this, we were able to know the permittivity of the ground by inversion, and we could confirm the depth of detection for the joint by accurate calculation. We confirmed the signal waveforms in the cavity under the road through 3D-GPR exploration, analyzed more quantitatively in subjective and empirical analysis. The subsidence and depth of the subsurface settlement can be observed through 3D-GPR survey, and ground condition change after the ground reinforcement can be confirmed through the exploration section.
