To determine if water-jet nozzle moves and water jetting are effective according to the location of the fire, this study examined the automatic fire-tracking water cannon system and aan indoor hydrant system, such as water jet centered directivity, water jet range maintainability and water jet shape uniformity. First, an examination to find the center of fire accurately from this system design showed that the water jet centered test was accurate. Second, the water jet range test results showed that when water is jetted at the maximum water jet radius, the water jet shows an inaccurate result but within the allowable tolerance range. Finally, the water-jet shape test result confirmed that there are no problems in setting the block from the algorithm design.

Chrome plating is a method used to protect the inside of a gun barrel from the severe environment (3,000 K and 4,000 MPa for 20 ms) created by the propellant gas when a cannon is fired. However, Cr-plated films have physical limitations, and the formation of hexavalent Cr compounds has a harmful effect on the environment. Ta-W alloy film has been explored as an alternative to Cr plating owing to the high melting point and corrosion resistance of Ta. However, obtaining pure α-phase Ta by sputtering is difficult, and the autofrettage effect in gun barrels limits the use of annealing. Therefore, a deposition method without the use of additional heat treatment is required to prepare Ta-W films with alpha-phase Ta. We explored the feasibility of depositing Ta-W alloy film inside a 2,800 mm-long stainless-steel tube using bipolar high-power impulse magnetron sputtering. A specially designed cylindrical magnetron sputtering equipment and a four-stage experimental process was employed to deposit a coating with uniform thickness (10.59%) throughout the tube, high adhesive strength (51.51 MPa), and pure alpha-phase Ta. The findings of this study are useful for deposition of Ta-W alloy films inside large-caliber canons.

최근 일반인들에게 널리 보급되고 있는 DSLR 디지털 카메라로 촬영되는 정지 이미지는 범용의 JPEG 포맷이나 제조사별 독자적인 RAW 파일 포맷으로 저장매체에 저장된다. 이와 함께 PMP 등의 휴대용 멀티미디어 기기를 활용하여 촬영된 RAW 파일 포맷을 재생 및 확인하기 위한 요구가 증대되고 있지만, RAW 파일 포맷이 디지털 카메라 제조사별로 다르고, 해당 포맷에 대한 구체적인 정보가 공개되지 않는 이유로 대부분의 휴대용 멀티미디어 기기에서 RAW 파일 재생 기능을 지원하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 RAW 파일 포맷을 분석하여 향후 임베디드 멀티미디어 기기에서 모든 RAW 파일 포맷을 지원할 수 있는 라이브러리 구축을 위한 사전 작업을 수행하였다. Cannon의 CRW, CR2 포맷과 Nikon의 NEF 포맷을 분석한 결과를 설명한다. 분석 결과를 바탕으로 RAW 파일 포맷에서 JPEG 파일음 성공적으로 추출하였다. MRW, PEF, DCR, DNG 등의 RAW 파일 포맷을 추가로 분석하여 모든 RAW 파일을 재생한 수 있는 임베디드 장비 및 PC용 RAW 파일 재생 라이브러리를 구축할 것이다.

This review paper discusses research from the last few years relating to windborne debris risk models and the essential elements of engineering damage prediction models. Generic types of windborne debris are discussed. The results of studies of debris trajectories that are relevant to damage models are described - in particular the horizontal component of debris velocity as a function of distance travelled. The merits of impact momentum versus impact kinetic energy as a relevant parameter for predicting damage are considered, and how published data from generic cannon Impact tests can be used in risk models. The quantitative variation of debris impact damage with wind speed is also discussed. Finally the main elements of previously-proposed debris damage models are described.

In recent warfare, importance of counter-fire is increased. New weapon system and counter-fire have critical impact on defeating of the enemy. At an initial battle counter-fire, we need to study about striking plan against the enemy mine artillery. In this paper, we studied, using MANA(agent based model), how much cannon's hit probability and UAV-based target acquisition have influence on striking the mine artillery. We constructed MANA model based on the characteristics of a regional database of Korean peninsula. If we develop detail database of the ROK Army, the proposed MANA model can be used as a war-game model for the regimental level of the Army.

Hydropneumatic suspension unit is an important part of tracked vehicles to absorb external impact load exerted from the non-paved road and the cannon discharge. Its absorption performance is strongly influenced by both damping and spring forces of the unit. In this paper, we numerically analyze the damping characteristics of the in-arm-type hydropneumatic suspension unit (ISU) by considering four distinct dynamic modes of the ISU damper: jounce-loading, jounce-unloading, rebound-loading and rebound-unloading. The flow rate coefficients determining the oil flow rate through the damper orifice are decided with the help of independent experiments. The wheel reaction force, the flow rate at cracking and the damping energy are parametrically investigated with respect to the orifice diameter and the wheel motion frequency.

The gundrill is capable of machining for having large length to diameter ratio in single pass. The techniques of gundrill and gun boring began developing in the late 18th century with the need for more accurate bores in rifle, cannon, machinery part and marine part etc. The main feature of the gun drilling provides a stabilizing cutting force resultant necessary for self guidance of the drill head. A study of the accuracy and surface finish of holes produced would reveal quite useful information regarding the process. The thesis deals with the experimental results obtained during gun drilling on marine part materials for different machining conditions.

Thick-walled cylinders, such as a cannon or nuclear reactor, are autofrettaged to induce advantageous residual stresses into pressure vessels and to increase operating pressure and the fatigue lifetimes. As the autofrettage level increases, the magnitude of compressive residual stress at the bore also increases. The purpose of the present paper is to predict the accurate residual stress of SCM440 high strength steel using the Kendall model which was adopted by ASME Code. Hydraulic pressure process was applied and thick-walled cylinders were autofrettaged up to 30% overstrain levels. Electro polishing was performed to get more accurate data. Residual stresses were measured by X-ray diffraction method. The autofrettaged surface which was plastically deformed analyzed using a scanning electron microscope(SEM). Although there were some differences in measured residual stress and numerical, there is a tendency to agree.

The BV-photographic photometry was made for 1714 stars (V<19.5) in NGC 6752. The C-M diagram of this cluster shows an unusually extended blue horizontal branch $(V=13.5{\sim}17.8)$ with a wide gap $(V=16{\sim}16.7)$ and the well defined giant branch with gaps at V=13.85 and 16.2. The turnoff point is defined at $V=17.25{\pm}0.15$ and (B-V) = $0.46{\pm}0.02$. If we take $V_{HB}=13.85$ for NGC 6752, then ${\Delta}V=2.80,\;(B-V)_{0,g}=0.76\;and\;{\Delta}V_{TO}=3.40$ and the chemical abundance is estimated to be [Fe/H]=-1.67 or $Z=4.3{\times}10^{-4}\;and\;Y=0.26$. Some other physical parameters of this cluster are derived and compared with those for the well observed clusters M 3, M 13, M 15 and M 92.

The oxidation of hydrazobenzene by molecular oxygen in the polar solvent methanol is catalysed by a Schiff's base complex Co(3MeOsalen) which is a synthetic oxygen carrier. The products are trans-azobenzene and water. The rate of the reaction has been studied spectrophotometrically and the rate law established. A mechanism involving a ternary complex of catalyst, hydrazobenzene and molecular oxygen has been proposed. The kinetic studies show that a ternary complex $CoL{\cdot}H_2AB{\cdot}O_2$ is involved in the rate determining step. The reactions are summarised in a catalytic cycle. The kinetic data suggest that a ternary complex involving Co(3MeOsalen), triphenyl-phosphine and molecular oxygen is catalytically acive species but at higher triphenylphosphine concentrations the catalyst becomes inactive. The destruction of the catalytic activity could be due to the catalyst becoming coordinated with triphenyl phosphine at both z axis sites of the complex e.g. Co (3MeOsalen)$(PPh_3)_2$.
