Satellite structure should be designed to accommodate and support safely the payload and equipments necessary for its own missions and to secure satellite and payloads from severe launch environments. The launch environments imposed on satellites are quasi-static accelerations, aerodynamic loads, acoustic loads and shock loads. Especially when optical payload is accommodated, satellite structure usually adopts the optical bench consisting of composite material not only to support and secure but also to guarantee good pointing stability against extreme thermal environments. This paper deals with optical bench and support structure which shall be designed to minimize the loads transferred to optical payloads from satellite.

The distribution of shaft resistance is measured by the static load test with the strain gauge or stress gauge, so that the long-term load distribution must be considered for the pile design. However, the measurement by strain gauge generally assumes the 'zero reading', which is the reading taken at 'zero time' with 'zero' load and the residual stress, which is the negative skin friction(or the negative shaft resistance) caused by the pile construction, is neglected. Therefore, the measured value by strain gauge is different from the true load-distribution because residual stresses were neglected. In this study, the three drilled shafts were constructed, and the strain measurements were carried out just after shaft construction. As a result of this study, it is shown that the true load-distribution of drilled shaft is quite different with known load distribution and the true load-distribution of drilled shaft changed from the negative skin friction to the positive skin according to the load increment.

Owing to economically efficient and easy installation, bucket foundation is a promising solution for offshore wind turbines. This paper aims at finding the behavior of suction caissons and soil surrounding the foundation by using three-dimensional finite element analysis. Under various loading conditions, a wide range of foundation geometries installed in dense and medium dense sandy soil was considered to evaluate ultimate horizontal load and overturning moment capacity. The results show that the rotation and displacement of the bucket due to monotonic loading are largely dependent on the foundation geometry, soil density and load eccentricity. Normalized diagrams and equations for the ultimate horizontal load and overturning moment capacities are presented that are useful tool for the preliminary design of such foundation type.

Monitoring the site of an underground construction wall is crucial to confirm the stability of the supports and ground due to excavation. In particular, it is essential to maintain the accuracy of a load cell gauge, which identifies the load of the support transmitted from the excavated ground. However, research on verification methods and regulations that can identify the accuracy of load cell gauges at construction sites is inadequate, which is a problem as load cell gauges are installed without proper performance inspections. In this study, performance tests were conducted by a complete investigation of load cell gauges sold in Korea and comparing them with foreign products to determine defect causes. In addition, the criteria for selecting a load cell gauge were presented, and the results of this study were considered to help select a highly reliable load cell gauge.

Since the Fukushima nuclear accident, several researchers are extensively studying the effect of torsion on the piping systems In nuclear power plants. Piping installations in power plants with a circumferential crack can be operated under combined loading conditions such as bending and torsion. ASME Code provides flaw evaluations for fully plastic fractures using limit load criteria for the structural integrity of the cracked pipes. According to the recent version of Code, combined loadings are provided only for the membrane and bending. Even though actual operating conditions have torsion loading, the methodology for evaluating torsion load is not established. This paper provides the results of limit load analyses by using finite element models for circumferentially cracked pipes under pure bending, pure torsion, and combined bending and torsion with tension. Theoretical limit load solutions based on net-section fully plastic criteria are suggested and verified with the results of finite element analyses.

하우스에 대하여 풍하중을 고려한 구조해석을 수행할 때 적용하는 풍력계수는 각국마다 차이가 있고 우리나라에서도 실험이나 이론적으로 규명된 바가 거의 없는 실정이다. 따라서 현 실정에 맞는 하우스의 구조해석에 필요한 풍력계수에 대한 규명이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 이에 본 연구는 단동, 2연동 및 3연동하우스에 대하여 풍동실험을 통해 측정된 풍압을 이용하여 풍력계수를 산정하고 그 변화를 규명하여 풍하중 산정에 필요한 합리적인 풍력계수 분포 단면도를 작성하기 위한 기초 자료를 제공하기 위하여 수행되었다. (중략)

There has been an increasing number of studies on photovoltaic energy generation system in an offshore site with the largest energy generation efficiency, as increasing the researches and developments of renewable energies for use of offshore space and resources to replace existing fossil fuels and resolve environmental challenges. For installation and operation of floating photovoltaic systems in an offshore site with harsher environmental conditions, a stiffness of structural members comprising the total system must be reinforced to inland water spaces as dams, reservoirs etc., which have relatively weak condition. However, there are various limitations for the reinforcement of structural stiffness of the system, including producible size, total mass of the system, economic efficiency, etc. Thus, in this study, a floating breakwater is considered for reducing wave loads on the system and minimizing the reinforcement of the structural members. Wave reduction performances of floating breakwaters are evaluated, considering size and distance to the system. The wave loads on the system are evaluated using the higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM), considering the multi-body effect of buoys. Stresses on structural members are assessed by coupled analyses using the finite element method (FEM), considering the wave loads and hydrodynamic characteristics. As the maximum stresses on each of the cases are reviewed and compared, the effect of floating breakwater for floating photovoltaic system is checked, and it is confirmed that the size of breakwater has a significant effect on structural responses of the system.

근래에 들어 환경문제의 사회적 부각과 함께 생태파괴적인 하천 정비 방식에 대한 대안으로 자연형 하천 환경 복원기법에 대한 시험 적용이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 하천 복원에 앞서 하천 환경의 상태를 파악하고 진단할 수 있는 방법에 대한 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 기존에 개발된 하천 질 평가 방법은 수질에 편향된 경향이 있으나 수질의 개선만으로는 생물 다양성의 발생 기반으로서 물리적 구조가 훼손된 상태에서는 생태적 복원의 효과를 달성하기 어렵다. 따라서 하천의 물리적 조건에 의한 구체적이고 비교적 객관적인 평가가 필요하며, 본 연구에서는 상기 평가를 바탕으로 작성된 하천 자연도 평가 지침에 의거하여 곡릉천 하류 일부 구간과 곡릉천의 지류인 벽제천을 대상으로 자연도를 조사하였다. 평가 결과 곡릉천 봉일천교 상류 2km구간의 저수로는 사행을 보였으며, 강변 사주 및 하중도는 없었으나 갈대 등과 같은 저수로변 식생이 있고 흙으로 조성된 인공제방으로 되어 있어 도심지의 정형화된 하천들에 비해 비교적 자연에 가까운 모습을 하고 있었다. 한편 하천 인근에 있는 아파트 등 주거지와 논, 밭 등의 경작지로 인한 오염원 유입 및 자전거 도로와 산책로 등 사람의 접근이 용이한 제외지의 이용으로 동식 물서식처로서의 기능이 저하될 것으로 우려된다. 곡릉천의 지류인 벽제천은 저수로가 사행을 유지하고 하중도와 사주가 형성되어 있으며 여울을 확인할 수 있었다. 하천 인근에 경작지와 제방도로가 있으나 인적이 드물고 차량 통행량이 적어 생태환경 훼손에 대한 우려는 적은 것으로 판단되 었다.
