The objective of this study was to find the factors affecting the results of full frontal barrier impact test for the NCAP (New Car Assessment Program). To find the factors, the frontal NCAP test results of the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) were utilized. The three tested vehicle were same model year. It was observed the second peak value of barrier force affected the occupant injury risk. As the second peak value of the barrier force increases, the injury risk of the driver side occupant increases as well.

Experimental and numerical investigations were conducted to study the performance of a surface-fixed horizontal porous wave barrier in regular waves. The characteristics of the reflection and transmission coefficients, energy dissipation, and vertical wave force were examined versus different porosities of the barrier. Numerical simulations based on 3D Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with standard low-Re k-ε turbulent closure and volume of fluid approach were accomplished and compared with the experimental results conducted in a 2D wave tank. Experimental measurements and numerical simulations were shown to be in satisfactory agreement. The qualitative wave behavior propagating over a horizontal porous barrier such as wave run-up, wave breaking, air entrapment, jet flow, and vortex generation was reproduced by CFD computation. Through the discrete harmonic decomposition of the vertical wave force on a wave barrier, the nonlinear characteristics were revealed quantitatively. It was concluded that the surface-fixed horizontal barrier is more effective in dissipating wave energy in the short wave period region and more energy conversion was observed from the first harmonic to higher harmonics with the increase of porosity. The present numerical approach will provide a predictive tool for an accurate and efficient design of the surface-fixed horizontal porous wave barrier.

본 연구에서는 바람의 영향을 받는 박스형 콘크리트 거더교에 대한 풍력계수를 산정하기 위하여 전산유체해석(CFD)를 수행하였다. 방음벽이 없는 교량 단면에 대한 항력계수, 양력계수 및 비틀림모멘트계수를 산정하였고, 이 풍력계수 값들을 다양한 높이의 방음벽을 갖는 교량 단면에 대한 풍력계수 값들과 비교하였다. 전산유체해석에서 풍력계수들을 산정할 때 전단응력수송(SST) $k-{\omega}$ 난류 모델을 적용하였고, 마찰 항력계수가 전체 항력계수에 미치는 기여도를 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 바람이 수평으로 불 때 항력계수는 방음벽의 높이가 커질수록 증가하였고, 마찰 항력의 기여도는 교량 단면에 방음벽이 없을 때 가장 높았다. 따라서 교량설계에서 풍력을 산정할 때 방음벽의 높이의 영향을 고려할 필요가 있으며, 벽면 마찰력은 교량에 작용하는 풍력을 산정할 때 중요한 역할을 하였다.

In this study, we investigate the effect of the diffusion barrier and substrate temperature on the length of carbon nanotubes. For synthesizing vertically aligned carbon nanotubes, thermal chemical vapor deposition is used and a substrate with a catalytic layer and a buffer layer is prepared using an e-beam evaporator. The length of the carbon nanotubes synthesized on the catalytic layer/diffusion barrier on the silicon substrate is longer than that without a diffusion barrier because the diffusion barrier prevents generation of silicon carbide from the diffusion of carbon atoms into the silicon substrate. The deposition temperature of the catalyst and alumina are varied from room temperature to $150^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, and $250^{\circ}C$. On increasing the substrate temperature on depositing the buffer layer on the silicon substrate, shorter carbon nanotubes are obtained owing to the increased bonding force between the buffer layer and silicon substrate. The reason why different lengths of carbon nanotubes are obtained is that the higher bonding force between the buffer layer and the substrate layer prevents uniformity of catalytic islands for synthesizing carbon nanotubes.

An adjustable, louver-type wind barrier was introduced in this study for improving the running safety and ride comfort of train on the bridge under the undesirable wind environment. The aerodynamic characteristics of both train and bridge due to this novel wind barrier was systematically investigated based on the wind tunnel tests. It is suggested that rotation angles of the adjustable blade of the louver-type wind barrier should be controlled within $90^{\circ}$ to achieve an effective solution in terms of the overall aerodynamic performance of the train. Compared to the traditional grid-type wind barrier, the louver-type wind barrier generally presents better aerodynamic performance. Specifically, the larger decrease of the lift force and overturn moment of the train and the smaller increase of the drag force and torsional moment of the bridge resulting from the louver-type wind barrier were highlighted. Finally, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique was applied to explore the underlying mechanism of aerodynamic control using the proposed wind barrier.

The present study provides a deeper understanding of the flow fields of a full-scale railway wind barriers by means of a wind tunnel test. First, the drag forces of the three wind barriers were measured using a force sensor, and the drag force coefficients were compared with a similar scale model. On this basis, the mean wind velocity and turbulence upwind and downwind of the wind barriers were measured. The effects of pore size and opening forms of the wind barrier were discussed. The results show that the test of the scaled wind barrier model may be unsafe, and it is suitable to adopt the full-scale wind barrier model. The pore size and the opening forms of wind barriers have a slight influence on the flow fields upwind of the wind barrier but have some influences on the flow fields and power spectra downwind of the wind barrier. The smaller pore size generates a lower turbulence density and value of the power spectrum near the wind barrier, and the porous wind barriers clearly provide better shelter than the bar-type wind barriers.

Recently, the interior permanent magnet (IPM) motors for electric vehicle (EV) traction motor are being extensively researched because of its high energy density and high efficiency. The traction motor for EV requires high power and high efficiency at the wide driving region. Therefore, it is essential to fully consider the characteristics of the motor from low speed to high-speed driving regions. Especially, when the motor is driven at high speed, a significant centrifugal force is applied to the rotor. Thus, the rotor must be stably structured and be fully endured at the critical speed. In this paper, aims to examine the characteristics of the IPM motor by adjusting the width of air-barrier according to the permanent magnet position which is critical in designing an IPM motor for EV traction motors and to conduct a centrifugal force analysis for grasping mechanical safety.

차세대 모바일용 전자디스플레이로 각광받고 있는 FOLED (flexible organic light emitting display)의 연구에서 display의 신뢰성과 수명은 매우 중요한 연구 테마이다. OLED의 수명단축에 영향을 미치는 요소는 수분에 의한 열화가 가장 치명적이다. Barrier layer를 통한 수분의 주요 침투경로는 pin-hole과 void 등과 같은 defect에 의한 것으로 보인다. 수분의 침투 경로를 제어하는 OLED용 barrier layer의 요구조건은 WVTR (water vapor transmission rate)이 $10^{-6}g/m^2{\cdot}day$ 이하로 낮아야 한다. Barrier layer가 가져야 할 핵심적인 조건은 유연성을 가지면서 동시에 WVTR 값이 매우 낮아야 하는데, 아직까지 이를 만족하는 barrier layer의 개발은 아직 덜된 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 PET (polyethylene terephthalate) 기판에 sputtering법으로 barrier layer를 제조하였다. 증착에 이용한 타겟은 두가지 종류인 Al과 $Al_2O_3$를 사용하였으며, 다층박막으로 제조하였다. 제조된 barrier layer의 수분침투 특성은 WVTR의 측정으로, 유연성의 평가는 in-situ fatigue test를 수행하여 측정하였다. 종합적인 특성 평가를 위하여 SEM과 AFM (atomic force microscope) 관찰도 하였다.

The submerged barrier, employed in a reactor, divided a reactor into sludge settling zone and mixing zone according to flow type. In spite of mixing in the mixing zone, the lower part of sludge settling zone than the top of barrier was in a steady flow due to the barrier, which prevented the turbulent flow, produced from the mixing zone, from being diffused into the sludge settling zone. Therefore, the sludges in the mixing zone flowed backward over the barrier into the upper part of the sludge settling zone by turbulent flow and settled down in the sludge settling zone by the force of gravity. When barrier/water level ratio was 0.5, most sludges almost did not settle down in tile sludge settling zone because the sludges were directly affected by the turbulent flow, generated from mixer in the mixing zone. At 0.63 of barrier/water level ratio, sludge in the middle part of sludge settling zone rocked from side to side weakly. And sludge in the lower part became piled up on the bottom over this ratio. After 10minutes of sludge settling, the lower part of sludge settling zone was over 5000mg/L of sludge concentration although intial sludge concentration was 2300mg/L. By using the submerged barrier and the flow types, it could transfer sludge from this to that.

The nonlinear dynamic behaviors of guardrail established on the local or high way have been investigated using BARRIER Ⅶ program with respect to four design variables such as section type of beams and posts, impact angle, impact velocity and vehicle weight. Computer simulation programs are sophisticated analytical models for analyzing dynamic vehicle/barrier interactions and provide a relatively inexpensive alternative to full scale crash testing. This study has been focused on the structural adequacy, occupant risk, and vehicle trajectory. For this purpose, the maximum deflection and impact force have been calculated to design the clear zone and to analyze effect of impact attenuation. Also, the acceleration of vehicle and exit angle after collision have been computed to estimate the occupant risk. From this study, it is suggested that we should strengthen the design criteria of guradrail to prevent from disastrous traffic accidents.
