본 연구는 부유식 구조물의 위치 제어를 위한 계류 체인 링크의 휨 거동에 대해 다룬다. 일반적으로 체인 구조는 링크 간 연결조건에 따라 축력만 전달하는 구조체로 인식되었다. 그러나 체인에 강한 인장력이 작용할 때, 접촉하는 두 링크 간의 마찰력에 의해 휨 강성이 도입되게 된다. 특히, 부유식 플랫폼의 계류선은 강한 인장력이 유지되는데, 물리적으로는 긴장 상태에 있는 체인 링크 간 접촉면에 마찰특성에 의해 휨 강성이 도입되면 환경하중을 받는 플랫폼에 회전 운동이 발생할 때, 계류선에도 회전 변위를 일으키고 이는 결과적으로 설계 시 고려하지 못한 휨모멘트 및 휨응력이 체인에 작용하게 된다. 실제 2005년 Girrasol Buoy 플랫폼의 해상 설치 후 5개월 만에 파손된 계류 체인의 사고 조사 시 주요 원인으로 이러한 휨 거동에 의한 부가 피로손상 누적이 지적되었다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 유한요소해석을 통해 긴장상태에 있는 체인에 도입되는 휨 강성 및 휨 응력의 특성에 대해 분석한다.

In this paper, we compute the trace field of C(2, s), the complement of two component chain link with s left half twists in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$, for every s. As a result, for every $n{\in}{\mathbb{N}}{\backslash}\{1\}$, we can find $s{\in}{\mathbb{Z}}$ such that the degree of the trace field of C(2, s) is n. We also prove that if for fixed p, the degree of the trace field of C(p, s) runs over ${\mathbb{N}}{\backslash}\{1\}$, then p is contained in {1, 2, 4, 8}.

After an accident involving mooring link failures in an offloading buoy, verification of the fatigue safety in terms of the out-of-plane bending (OPB) and in-plane bending (IPB) moments has become a key engineering item in the design of various floating offshore units. The mooring links for an 8 MW floating offshore wind turbine were selected for this study. To identify the OPB stiffness (OPB moment versus interlink angle), a numerical simulation model, called the 3-link model, is usually composed of three successive chain links closest to the fairlead or chain hawse. This paper introduces two numerical simulation techniques for the 3-link analyses. The conventional and advanced approaches are both based on the prescribed rotation approach (PRA) and direct tension approach (DTA). Comparisons of the nominal stress distributions, OPB stiffnesses, hotspot stress curves, and stress concentration curves are presented. The multiple link analyses used to identify the tension angle versus interlink angle require the OPB stiffness data from the 3-link analyses. A convergence study was conducted to determine the minimum number of links for a multi-link analysis. It was proven that 10 links were sufficient for the multi-link analysis. The tension angle versus interlink angle relations are presented based on multi-link analyses with 10 links. It was found that the subsequent results varied significantly according to the 3-link analysis techniques.

The closed-loop supply chain's central enterprises aim to maximize the revenue and reduce the reclaiming channel level to the greatest extent by using blockchain and modern management methods. The traditional recycling network has more links, and there is less communication between enterprises in each link. There is a particular "bullwhip effect" in the channel link, making it difficult for power battery manufacturers to respond to the dynamic market quickly. It is often challenging to obtain scaled waste power batteries, which aggravates how power battery raw materials are expensive and difficult to recycle. Therefore, the closed-loop supply chain design of power batteries adopting blockchain shall minimize channel links and reduce transaction levels to reduce costs.

This paper proposes an efficient approach based on a machine learning technique to predict the local stresses on mooring chain links. Three-link and multi-link finite element analyses were conducted for a target chain link of D107 with steel grade R4; 24,000 and 8000 analyses were performed, respectively. Two serial Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models based on a deep multi-layer perceptron technique were developed. The first ANN model corresponds to multi-link analyses, where the input neurons were the tension force and angle and the output neurons were the interlink angles. The second ANN model corresponds to the three-link analyses with the input neurons of the tension force, interlink angle, and the local stress positions, and the output neurons of the local stress. The predicted local stresses for the untrained cases were reliable compared to the numerical simulation results.

This paper presents a stiffness analysis method for a low-DOF parallel manipulator, which takes into account of elastic deformations of joints and links. A low-DOF parallel manipulator is defined as a spatial parallel manipulator which has less than six degrees of freedom. Differently from the case of a 6-DOF parallel manipulator, the serial chains in a low-DOF parallel manipulator are subject to constraint forces as well as actuation forces. The reaction forces due to actuations and constraints in each limb can be determined by making use of the theory of reciprocal screws. It is shown that the stiffness model of an F-DOF parallel manipulator consists of F springs related to the reciprocal screws of actuations and 6-F springs related to the reciprocal screws of constraints, which connect the moving platform to the fixed base in parallel. The $6{times}6$ stiffness matrix is derived, which is the sum of the stiffness matrices of actuations and constraints. The six spring constants can be precisely determined by modeling the compliance of joints and links in a serial chain as follows; the link can be considered as an Euler beam and the stiffness matrix of rotational or prismatic joint can be modeled as a $6{times}6$ diagonal matrix, where one diagonal element about the rotation axis or along the sliding direction is zero. By summing the elastic deformations in joints and links, the compliance matrix of a serial chain is obtained. Finally, applying the reciprocal screws to the compliance matrix of a serial chain, the compliance values of springs can be determined. As an example of explaining the procedure, the stiffness of the Tricept parallel manipulator has been analyzed.

Purpose - Using unexpected changes in geopolitical tensions on the Korean peninsula as a quasi-natural experimental setting, we examine whether and how geopolitical risks travel across borders through firm-level imports and exports linkages. We also test whether the effects are driven by either imports or exports and assess whether firms can effectively hedge themselves against geopolitical risks. Design/methodology - We focus on a series of unanticipated geopolitical events taken place in Korea in 2018. Making use of the shocks to geopolitical climate, we identify five milestone events toward peace talks. We employ the event studies methodology. We examine heterogenous firm-level stock price reactions around key event dates depending on firms' exposure to geopolitical risks. As a measure of firms' exposure to geopolitical risks in Korea, we utilize a text-based measure of firm-level trade links. When a firm announces and discusses its purchase of inputs from Korea or sales of outputs to Korea in their annual disclosure filings, we define a firm to have a trade relationship with Korea and have exposure to Korean geopolitical risks. Similarly, we use a measure of a firm's hedging policies based on a firm's textual mention of the use of foreign exchange derivatives in their annual disclosure. Findings - We find that U.S. firms that have direct trade links to Korea gained significantly more value when the intensity of geopolitical risks drops compared to firms without such trade links to Korea. The effects are pronounced for firms purchasing inputs from or selling outputs to Korea. We find that the effectiveness of foreign exchange hedging against geopolitical risks is limited. Originality/value - We document the international transmission of geopolitical uncertainty through trade linkages. Export links as well as import links serve as important nexus of transmission of geopolitical risks across borders. Hedging strategies involving foreign-exchanges derivatives do not seem to insulate firms again geopolitical risks. With the recent movements of localization and reshuffling of the global value chain, our results suggest a significant impact of geopolitical risks in Korea on the construction of the global value chain.

OPB(out-of-plane bending)-induced failure of mooring chain was firstly addressed by CALM (catenary anchor leg mooring)-type offloading buoy, located approximately one mile away from the bow of the Girassol FPSO which was installed offshore area of Angola in September 2001. This study deals with verifying the load transfer mechanism between the first free chain link and connected two chain links inside the chain hawse. OPB moment to angle variation relationships are proposed by extensive parametric study where the used design variables are static friction coefficients, proof test loads, nominal tension forces, chain link diameters, chain link grades and chain link types. The stress ranges due to OPB moments are obtained using nonlinear FEAs (finite element analyses). Final stress ranges are derived considering ones from IPT (in-plane tension) forces. Also a formula for OPB fatigue assessment is briefly introduced.

위성 회선의 대표적인 장점은 장거리 대용량 전송과 동보 통신이며, 지상 회선은 고속, 고품질의 데이타 전송이다. 따라서 가입자에게 양질의 파일 전송 서비스를 제 공하기 위해서 위성 회선과 지상회선의 특성을 결합한 형태의 서비스가 필요하다. 본 논문은 위성 회선에서 파일 전송의 타당성을 검토하기 위하여 HDLC와 FTAM접속 프로 토콜을 설계하여 위성 회선과 지상 회선의 파일 전송 효율에 대하여 해석하였다. 적 용된 전송 파라시터는 단위 메세지 길이와 파일의 전송 시간, 체인 레코드 길이를 512 바이트 보다 짧게하면 파일 전송 시간은 극단적으로 길게되며, 1024 바이트로 했 을 때 최소로 되고 2048 바이트 부터 급격하게 증가되었다. 체인 레코드수가 15개 이 하일 경우 전송 시간의 곡선은 극단적으로 감소되고 90개까지는 서서히 감소하며 90 개 이상에서는 일정한 전송 시간을 유지하였다. 이들의 결과에서 최적의 단위 메세지 길이는 1024 바이트 부근이라는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 위성 회선의 전송 속도 가 24 kbps에서 2400 bps로 늦어짐에 따라 최적 메세지의 길이도 640 바이트에서 256 바이트로 짧게 됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study outlines possible risk factors in the SCM of a company and correlates risk assessment, the strategy of risk management, and the supply chain performance. The data is surveyed from an international Korean company and is analyzed by the structure equation model of actual proof. The research model verifies the correlation between the risk assessment, the strategy of risk management, and the supply chain performance as dependent variables after the risk factors of the SCM are defined as independent variables. The research shows that there are consecutive links among the risk factors of the SCM, the risk assessment, and the strategy of risk management. The strategy of risk management was conclusively determined to have an effect on supply chain performance. Therefore, improving the supply chain performance of a company requires the constructive process for risk management based on a correlation between risk assessment and the strategy of risk management.
