  • 국내에서도 내진설계의 필요성이 점차 증대되고 있다. 그 중에서도 비구조요소인 소화배관의 흔들림 방지 버팀대에 관한 연구가 계속되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 흔들림 방지 버팀대의 하중 시험을 통하여 유효한 범위를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 하중 0에서부터 18.5 kN까지 설계안전 범위로 측정되었으며 최대 29.4 kN에서도 흔들림 방지 버팀대의 구조 및 성능에 이상 없이 정상 작동하였다. 또한 사물인터넷의 환경을 이용하여 센서노드로부터 데이터를 전송받아 유효 하중범위 안에서 추출과 예측단계를 거쳐 재난정보를 수신케 하는 모니터링 시스템의 모듈을 구성하였다.

  • When a welded circular hollow section (CHS) tubular joint is subjected to brace axial loading, failure position is located usually at the weld toe on the chord surface due to the weak flexural stiffness of the thin-walled chord. The failure mode is local yielding or buckling in most cases for a tubular joint subjected to axial load at the brace end. Especially when a cyclic axial load is applied, fracture failure at the weld toe may occur because both high stress concentration and welding residual stress along the brace/chord intersection cause the material in this region to become brittle. To improve the ductility as well as to increase the static strength, a tubular joint can be reinforced by increasing the chord thickness locally near the brace/chord intersection. Both experimental investigation and finite element analysis have been carried out to study the hysteretic behaviour of the reinforced tubular joint. In the experimental study, the hysteretic performance of two full-scale circular tubular T-joints subjected to cyclic load in the axial direction of the brace was investigated. The two specimens include a reinforced specimen by increasing the wall thickness of the chord locally at the brace/chord intersection and a corresponding un-reinforced specimen. The hysteretic loops are obtained from the measured load-displacement curves. Based on the hysteretic curves, it is found that the reinforced specimen is more ductile than the un-reinforced one because no fracture failure is observed after experiencing similar loading cycles. The area enclosed by the hysteretic curves of the reinforced specimen is much bigger, which shows that more energy can be dissipated by the reinforced specimen to indicate the advantage of the reinforcing method in resisting seismic action. Additionally, finite element analysis is carried out to study the effect of the thickness and the length of the reinforced chord segment on the hysteretic behaviour of CHS tubular T-joints. The optimized reinforcing method is recommended for design purposes.

  • 철골 중심 가새 골조는 최소의 물량으로 건물의 횡력에 대한 저항력을 확보할 수 있는 매우 효과적인 시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 기 설치된 H형 가새를 무 용접 냉간 성형보강재로 보강하여 휨-좌굴을 억제하고 인장력과 압축력에 동일한 강도를 확보하는 보강안에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 역 V형 가새 골조에 설치된 H형가 새의 보강방안으로 선행연구의 보강재를 약축 보강형으로 변경하여 보강방안을 제시하고 부재실험, 부재변수해석, 골조실험을 통해 구조성능을 평가하였다. 보강된 가새는 AISC기준을 만족하였다. 이를 통해 보강으로 골조내 가새의 불 균형력에 의한 보의 파괴가 방지될 것으로 기대된다.

  • Spacious experimental and numerical investigation has been conducted by researchers to increase the ductility and energy dissipation of concentrically braced frames. One of the most widely used strategies for increasing ductility and energy dissiption, is the use of energy-absorbing systems. In this regard, the cyclic behavior of a chevron bracing frame system equipped with multi-pipe dampers (CBF-MPD) was investigated through finite element method. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and improve the behavior of the CBF using MPDs. Three-dimensional models of the chevron brace frame were developed via nonlinear finite element method using ABAQUS software. Finite element models included the chevron brace frame and the chevron brace frame equipped with multi-pipe dampers. The chevron brace frame model was selected as the base model for comparing and evaluating the effects of multi-tube dampers. Finite element models were then analyzed under cyclic loading and nonlinear static methods. Validation of the results of the finite element method was performed against the test results. In parametric studies, the influence of the diameter parameter to the thickness (D/t) ratio of the pipe dampers was investigated. The results indicated that the shear capacity of the pipe damper has a significant influence on determining the bracing behavior. Also, the results show that the corresponding displacement with the maximum force in the CBF-MPD compared to the CBF, increased by an average of 2.72 equal. Also, the proper choice for the dimensions of the pipe dampers increased the ductility and energy absorption of the chevron brace frame.

  • The purpose of this study was to design posture braces for rounded shoulders by examining characteristics of incorrect postures of rounded shoulders. The review of information in literature on rounded shoulder postures, correction exercise methods, and posture correction devices, has prompted this study to determine the design and material of a proper posture brace for rounded shoulders. In order to develop the pattern of a posture brace for rounded shoulders for women, the study carried out a comfort evaluation of the braces based on the 2D patterns through drafting method by utilizing the body measurements and relational formulae associated with the major body measurement such as bust circumference and on the 3D patterns of the brace which were obtained from 3D human model of women in their early 20s in Korea. Differences in angles were noted when 2D and 3D patterns of shoulder posture braces were compared. The side neck point was relocated farther outside in the 3D pattern to allow additional flexibility in the back-neck area, and the shoulder band was lowered by 14.8°, increasing armhole area comfort. The upper hemline of the front panel was found to rotate upward at an angle of 22.0° as the underarm point of the 3D pattern moved upwards than the underarm point of the 2D pattern, which enhanced comfort in the abdomen area. The 3D designs of shoulder posture brace was preferred in this study, as they significantly improved comfort while conducting fit evaluation compared to the 2D patterns of shoulder posture brace.

  • Aviation's safety record continues to improve yearly, especially with respect to passenger and crew injuries and deaths. However, although the number of accidents has decreased over the decades, there are still many events, such as landings short of the runway and runway excursions, both of which pose threats to passenger and crew safety. Surviving any kind of aviation accident depends on the physiological threat and stress of the impact(s), the extent to which the physical structure surrounding the passengers and crew remains intact, and the ability of the passengers and crew to be able to escape the wreckage. The one action that both passengers and crew can carry out to help decrease the likelihood of crash-related injury or death is to assume an emergency brace position. Doing so has been demonstrated over several decades to improve survivability. While cabin crew are taught (and then might have to teach passengers in an emergency about the emergency brace position), passengers in many parts of the world never learn about the brace position unless they are involved in an emergency in which there is time to prepare for the landing. This lack of provision of information is related to the fact that most airlines do not provide information in the preflight safety briefing and some do not even provide the information in the passenger safety cards. Many countries do not require their airlines to do so, a fact, which in turn, is related to the lack of mention of the brace position in ICAO's Annex 6. Until standards and recommended practices are changed at the highest world level, passengers will continue to be deprived of this vital, life-saving information that they can use, potentially to help save their own lives.

  • 손목 보조기(Wrist brace)는 손목 외상 환자들에게 사용이 되고 있다. 최근 맞춤형 손목 보조기를 3D 프린팅 기술을 활용하여 제작하는 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 3D 프린팅 맞춤형 보조기는 개인마다 다른 형태 반영, 통기성 확보 등의 다양한 요소를 반영할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 3D 프린팅 맞춤형 손목 보조기 제작 시 고려되어야 하는 벨크로 밴드 숫자와 위치가 보조기에 미치는 스트레스를 분석하였다. 맞춤형 보조기를 위해 CT 영상 기반으로 자동설계 소프트웨어(Reconeasy 3D, Seeann Solution)를 사용하여 뼈, 피부 영역 3D 모델링을 수행하였다. 3D 피부 영역을 기반으로, 각 치료 목적에 맞도록 손목 보조기 디자인을 적용하였다. 그리고, 보조기의 탄성을 위해 TPU 소재를 사용하여 FDM 방식 3D 프린터로 손목 보조기를 제작하였다. 맞춤형 3D 프린팅 손목 보조기의 벨크로 밴드의 숫자와 위치에 따른 효용성 평가를 위해 보조기의 스트레스 분포를 유한요소법(FEM)으로 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 수행한 손목 보조기 유한요소 해석을 통해 보조기의 스트레스 분포를 확인하였고 보조기 제작과 벨크로 밴드의 숫자와 위치를 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험 결과는 환자에게 양질의 치료를 제공하는데 도움이 될 것이다.
