To achieve designed quality and reliability from R&D to force integration, an establishment of precise and distinct specifications and standards are required. However, the recent process of R&D standardization on defense acquisition system, has brought plenty of corrections on specifications and standards that may cause not only difficulties to production line and retardation to the military forces, but also a degradation of provided weapon systems. Therefore, a technical review should be performed by the developer, the producer, and the client, establishing the standard that include mass production requirements as well as clients' requirements. This paper propose a specified solution on process of R&D standardization, by applying a substantial FCA(Functional Configuration Audit) and PCA(Physical Configuration Audit) which implies participation of related agencies. By the improved PCA, 2,023 corrections on 74 types of QAR(Quality Assurance Requirement)s and 12,715 corrections on drawings are identified.

In this study, the combustion characteristics of hybrid rocket fuel with tapered grain port were studied. The regression rate was increased about 17.5% by using the convergence port shape fuel. On the other hand, in case of divergence port shape fuel, any notable difference of regression rate was not observed when compared with regression rate of the cylindrical port shape fuel. Also, in case of convergence port shape fuel, characteristic velocity efficiency was increased. From these results, one can notice that convergence port shape of hybrid rocket fuel can be effective configuration in terms of improvement of combustion efficiency and performance.

This study addresses the optimal shape of a LCVA maximizing its vibration control effect through numerical parametric study. Various LCVAs having the same total mass and tuning frequency are designed with constraints on the dimensions and water level, and one obtaining the highest equivalent damping ratio of the controlled system is chosen as an optimal solution. As a result, it was found that the limit on the variation of the water level in the vertical liquid column plays an important role constraining the shape of the LCVA. As the LCVA width perpendicular to the plane of liquid motion increases, the equivalent damping ratio rises with slowdown so that determination of the proper width is important in design of the LCVA shape.

This study estimates the performance of confined concrete according to the configuration of transverse steel bars. The main test variables were the yield strength of spiral reinforcement and configuration of transverse reinforcement. A total of 27 specimens with rectangular cross section were cast and tested under monotonic concentric compression. R-type specimens with rectangular spirals, C-type specimens with circular spirals and O-type specimens with combined shape of rectangular and octagon were designed in this study. From experimental results, it is concluded that the proposed configuration of transverse reinforcement can provided improved ductility to the confined concrete compared to rectangular spiral reinforcement.

본 논문에서는 등기하 해석법을 이용하여 설계의존형 하중조건을 갖는 구조물에 대한 형상 최적설계를 수행하였다. 유한요소법 기반 형상 최적설계는 CAD 모델과 해석 모델의 차이로 인해, 설계영역 매개변수화에 어려움이 있다. 등기하 해석법은 CAD 모델과 동일한 NURBS 기저 함수와 조정점을 해석에 이용함으로써 설계의 기하학적 변화를 해석모델에 직접적으로 표현할 수 있는 장점을 가진다. 하중조건이 설계 영역이 변화함에 따라 변하는 최적설계 문제의 경우, 정확한 설계 영역 표현은 법선 벡터, 즉 변화하는 하중의 방향과 곡률과 같은 고차항의 정보를 정확하게 표현할 수 있고, 따라서 목적함수를 최소 또는 최대화시키는 최적의 해로 이끌어 낸다. 유한요소법 또는 밀도법을 이용한 형상 최적설계에서 설계의존형 하중조건을 갖는 구조물의 문제를 푸는 경우, 최적설계가 진행됨에 있어 변화하는 경계의 부정확성 때문에 정확한 설계민감도를 얻기가 어려운 점이 있다. 본 논문에서는, 수치 예제를 통해 등기하 해석 기반의 형상 최적설계 방법론이 설계의존형 하중조건을 갖는 구조물 문제에서 수월성을 가짐을 확인하였다.

Infrared signal measurement are conducted from a micro-turbo jet engine with different nozzle configurations. The conventional cone type, a S-shaped type with aspect ratio 5.2 and five rectangular type nozzle with different aspect ratios are used for this experiment work. The result show that infrared signal from the exhaust gas decrease as the aspect ratio increase. In case of S-shaped nozzle, the maximum infrared signal is reduced about 28.4% when compared of rectangular nozzle with aspect ratio 5(AR5).

In this research, numerical analysis was carried out on novel and existing fins, adjusted in terms of factors such as length, spacing, and angle, of a high-temperature heat exchanger for a 1 kW class Stirling engine, designed as a prime mover for a domestic cogeneration system. The performance improvement as a result of shape optimization was confirmed with numerical analysis by including the air preheater, which was not considered during optimization. However, a negative heat flux was observed in the cylinder head portion. This phenomenon was clarified by analyzing the exhaust gas and wall surface temperature of the combustion chamber. Furthermore, assuming an ideal cycle, the effects of heat transfer enhancement on the thermodynamic cycle and system performance were predicted.

Existing Finocyl grain designs assume configurations and repeat the process of configuration modification and confirmation of the requirements through burn-back analysis. Such a design increases the design fatigue of workers and has a problem of different design completeness depending on capabilities. Therefore, this study devised an optimal design method that applied genetic algorithms to the Burn-back automation analysis program to solve the problem of existing design. For stable search, variable-offset and non-drawable configuration control techniques were developed. The program performance was verified through the searching neutral and double thrust grains.

본 논문에서는 등기하 해석법을 이용하여 선형 탄성문제에 대한 형상 최적설계 기법을 개발하였다. 실용적인 공학문제에 대한 많은 최적설계 문제에서는 초기의 데이터가 CAD 모델로부터 주어지는 경우가 많다. 그러나 대부분의 설계 최적화 도구들은 유한요소법에 기초하고 있기 때문에 설계자는 이에 앞서 CAD 데이터를 유한요소 데이터로 변환해야 한다. 이 변환과정에서 기하 모델의 근사화에 따른 수치적 오류가 발생하게 되고, 이는 응답 해석뿐만 아니라 설계민감도 해석에 있어서도 정확도 문제를 발생시킨다. 이러한 점에서 등기하 해석법은 형상 최적설계에 있어서 유망한 방법론중 하나가 될 수 있다. 등기하 해석법의 핵심은 해석에 사용되는 기저 함수와 기하 모델을 구성하는 함수가 정확히 일치한다는 것이다. 이러한 기하학적으로 정확한 모델은 설계민감도 해석 및 형상 최적설계에 있어서도 사용된다. 이로 인해 높은 정확도의 설계민감도를 얻을 수 있으며, 이는 설계구배 기반의 최적화에 있어서 매우 중요하게 작용한다. 수치 예제를 통하여 본 논문에서 제시된 등기하 해석 기반의 형상 최적설계 방법론이 타당함을 확인하였다. 본 논문에는 등기하 해석법을 이용하여 선형 탄성문제에 대한 형상 최적설계 하였다.

This paper presents the effects of the tool shape on the geometrical characteristics of flat end-milled side walls. A tool shape is characterized by such parameters as helix angle, number of cutting edges, and diameter. The geometrical characteristics of the side walls are represented by the surface profiles in the feed and axial directions, which are orthogonal to each other. The geometrical defects in each direction are estimated based on the instantaneous apparent cutting areas, which are represented by the interference area between the tool and workpiece and that between the cutting edge and workpiece. It is confirmed that a geometrical defect in the feed direction is formed when the tool leaves the workpiece and the curvature of the tool path changes. Defects in the axial direction are also found in the side walls, except for the defect zone in the feed direction. An up-cut using an end-mill with a steeper helix angle, a greater number of cutting edges, and a smaller diameter are thus found to improve the geometrical accuracy of end-milled side walls.
