  • Air deck charge blast methods have been applied to improve the fragmentation in open cut bench blastings for mining developments. However, during large scale bench blasting operations, there exist some problems such as boulder productions due to explosive charge concentration. Especially, in case of lime stone mining, when air deck method is applied, there has been unintentionally concentrated on charging because the inside holes are often broken by erosion and decomposition. In this study, compared with general blasting, air deck blasting has been focused in lime stone mining. In other to maximize its efficiency, inside hole was examined by endoscope in advance and deck charge using air tube was applied to the section in which concentration might be taken place. Blasting efficiency, fragmentation, charging reduction rate, and total working hours (from charging to blasting) were the main object for comparing, and as a result, air deck was more efficient then the general blasting in all aspects except total working hours.

  • Environmental regulations in Korea for blasting at industrial sites have conservative standards, which often result in reduced efficiency and cost-effectiveness due to the consideration of environmental regulations and public complaints. Therefore, there is a need for blasting methods that can reduce environmental damage while improving construction efficiency and cost-effectiveness. In this study, we analyzed the effects of the PA-Deck (Paraffin Air-Deck) blasting method, which is a kind of Air Decoupled Charge method in principle utilizing a paraffin-infused paper tube as an air gap, on reducing blasting hazards and improving blasting efficiency. The analysis also evaluated the effectiveness of newly applied equipment for collecting blasting vibration data, and derived the relationship between the explosion velocity and vibration velocity of explosives, and performed frequency analysis of the vertical component. The results of the blasting vibration velocity analysis showed that the Paraffin Waxed Paper Tube-based blasting method exhibited significantly lower vibration velocities compared to conventional blasting methods, and it was judged that more uniformly small-sized fragmented rocks were generated.

  • Planing crafts were specifically designed to achieve relatively high speeds on the water. When a planing craft is running at high speed, dynamic pressure on the bottom makes the boat rise on the surface of the water. This reduces the area of the sinking surface of the boat to increase air resistance. Air resistance means the resistance that occurs when the hull and deck house over the surface of the water come in contact with the air current. In this paper, we carried out a CFD numerical analysis to find optimal deck houses that decreased air-resistance on the water when planing crafts are running at high speed. We finally developed the deck house shape of high-speed planing crafts that optimally decreased air resistance.

  • Air deck charge blasting method which has been generally used in a surface mine and large scale developing site is one of the improved techniques with blasting effectiveness. Many studies and experiments have been tried to investigate the characteristics of pressure distribution in a blasting hole and increase the effectiveness of air deck charge blasting method. In this study, changes of pressure occurred in sections of air deck installed in various ways was computed and also changes of pressure with the location and length of air deck was analyzed, using numerical analysis program. Basically, all the numerical analysis was 2-Dimensional analysis and equation of status of explosives was JWL-EOS. Only to evaluate the variations of pressure in blast hole, it was assumed that rock mass is homogeneous but rock mass has different density and intensity.

  • Already, the air deck blasting method has been used to take many advantages of blasting. In the existing air deck blasting method, air deck is made usually on column charge. But in the case study, we analyzed about the effect of self supporting air tube which made air deck in column charge. As results of this case study, it was shown that blasting vibration was decreased about $20{\sim}26%$ and quantity of explosive was decreased about $10{\sim}20%$. Also, fragmentation was shown to be smaller than it of common blasting method.

  • When ship blocks are erected or pre-erected, most blocks will be at outdoors where they are not protected from weather and exposed to ray of the sun. A deck plate compared to those in radiation heat transfer from the sun will have higher temperature than it of ambient air, and will expand more than lower laying structures whose temperatures are similar with air. But deck plates and under-structures are connected, so the deck plate will be under out-of-plane deformation rather than expand in length. In this study, we considered the temperature difference between air and plate as a major parameter of out-of-plane deformation, and analyzed how much additional deformation would take place. In addition, when a deformation could take place was also analyzed based on the initial deformed shape of deck plate. Because the accuracy inspections of deck plate will be done during daytime, conventional accuracy check results on sunny day could make us feel unfair. Thus resonable datum about momentary additional out-of-plane deformation due to environmental effects have been determined. The real deformation values can be specified even under enlarged deformations by radiation-expansion.

  • In this paper, we propose an effective method that automatically detects flaws in air deck by using non-destructive testing. First, Gamma correlation transform, 7 ${\times}$ 7 and 13 ${\times}$ 13 Sobel mask apply to the image of air deck acquired non-destructive testing in order to detect the edge of the image. Second, the edge detection area is smoothed and corrected by mean binarization method. Finally, the region of flaws in air deck is detected by a labeling method after removing the noise by the erosion and the dilation operation. In experimental results, we showed that the proposed detection method is effective in air deck.

  • Recently, the work machine is widely used in the agricultural machine and to use the power source of the tractor, the mower had been widely used as a working machine for mowing. The mower is classified as a front mower, mid-mower, and rear mower according to the mounting position of the lower frame on tractor. The main structure of mower is composed of deck, gearbox, and blade. This study concerns a study on air flow characteristics of Mid-mower for tractor. An air flow characteristics of the Mid-mower deck was evaluated by the velocity vector, flow path, and total air flow according to the number of revolutions. As the analysis results, The inner path of designed deck had no effect on air flow.

  • 본 연구는 일반건설현장에서와는 달리 천공경이 $97mm{\Phi}$이상이고 천공장이 21M이상인 상태에서 발파작업이 진행되고 있는 석회석 광산에서 기존의 발파공법과 Air tubes를 이용한 발파공법을 비교하여 기존의 발파로 인한 상부 대괴를 감소시키고 폭약의 사용량을 줄이면서 진동 및 폭음을 최소화하여 보다 경제적인 작업수행을 하기 위해 연구하였다. 한편 에어층(Air deck)을 형성으로 인한 전색장의 길이 감소를 보완하기 위해 라바플러그(Rubber Plug)를 사용하므로 비석의 위험을 최소화 시키고 가스압이 암전체에 충분히 전달할 수 있도록 장치를 만들어 실험하였다. 그 결과 일반발파와 Air tubes를 이용한 발파방법을 비교하여 볼 때 Air tubes를 이용한 발파방법이 폭약을 약 15~30% 절감 할 수 있었으며, 또한 진동은 최대 50%정도의 감소와 폭음에서는 2~5dB 정도로 감소되었다.
