This paper describes weld seam tracking and error compensation methods of automatic plasma arc welding system designed for the corrugation panel that consists of a linear section and a curved section with various curvatures. Realizing automatic welding system, we are faced with two problems. One is a precise seam tracking and the other is an arc length control. Due to the complexity of the panel shape, it is difficult to find a seam and operate a torch manually in the welding process. So, laser vision sensor for seam tracking is equipped for sensing the seam position and controlling the height of a torch automatically. To attain more precise measurement of an arc length, we measure the 3D shape of the panel and analyze error factors according to the various panel states and caused errors are predicted through the welding process. Using that result, compensation algorithm is added to that of arc length control and real time error compensation is achieved. The result shows that these two methods work effectively.

Due to the complexity of the panel shape, it is difficult to find a seam and operate a torch manually in the welding process. So, the laser vision sensor for seam tracking is designed for sensing the seam position and controlling a torch automatically. To achieve precise seam tracking, the design of sensor head, image simulation, and calibration are carried out. Through a series of experiment result, compensation algorithm is added and real time error compensation is achieved. The experiment result shows that this vision sensor works effectively. It will provide more precise welding performance and convenience to the operator.

Membrane panels are installed in LNG cargo-hold in order to endure extremely low temperature LNG. Although there are several types of membranes around the world, Korean LNG cargo containment system is developing to accomplish technology independence from the other countries. The membrane panel of Korean LNG cargo containment system is composed of corrugation and flat sheets which are arranged asymmetrically. It is very important to reduce the number of the type of corrugation sheet because a mold is required as much as the type of the corrugation sheet. Therefore, we proposed an optimization method to minimize the type of the corrugation sheet. For this method, the number of pitches, which is the distance between the centers of two corrugation sheets should be minimized. We also developed optimized arrangement procedure of the flats simultaneously. Finally, the developed optimization program is applied to 174K LNG cargo hold, and the minimum pitch size is found.

In a railway vehicle, corrugated steel panel is widely used for the floor structure because of its high bending stiffness and light weight. However, this panel shows lower sound insulation performance than that of the flat plate with the same weight. Especially, in a particular frequency region, transmission loss(TL) rapidly decreases and it results in the deterioration of sound insulation performance of the overall floor structure. This study identifies that the severe decrease in TL is caused from the local resonance of the periodic corrugated structure. TL decrease by local resonance is investigated by experiment and finite element analysis. Finally, design modification of the corrugation is proposed to improve TL and the effect is verified by experiment.

Characteristics of local vibration modes of a corrugated panel are investigated by finite element analysis and modal testing. Structural modification model in the corrugation is proposed to increase the resonance frequency. This model decreases the fall by the local resonance in the transmission loss of the corrugated pallet and improves sound insulation performance. Damping effect of tile foam filled ill tile core cavity is also estimated by experiment The results of tile study offer useful information how to predict the severe local resonances in corrugations and how to prevent their undesirable effect ell the sound insulation and the vibration transmission.

주름 강판의 주름은 강판의 중량당 굽힘 강성을 획기적으로 증가시킨다. 그러나 주름 강판은 같은 중량을 갖는 평판보다 낮은 차음 성능을 보인다. 특히, 특정한 주파수대역에서는 투과손실이 크게 감소한다. 이 문제의 주 요인은 주름단위에서의 국부적 공진으로 알려져 있다. 특정 주파수대역에서 다수의 국부적 공진모드가 발생하고 모드밀도가 급속히 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 음 투과손실과 모드 밀도 사이의 관계를 검토한다. 최종적으로, 중량의 증가 없이 주름 강판의 차음 성능을 향상시키기 위한 모드 밀도의 측면에서의 설계전략을 제시한다.

This study proposes an empirical formulation to predict the maximum deformation of offshore blast wall structure that is subjected to impact loading caused by hydrocarbon explosion. The blast wall model is assumed to be supported by a simply-supported boundary condition and corrugated panel is modelled. In total, 1,620 cases of LS-DYNA simulations were conducted to predict the maximum deformation of blast wall, and they were then used as input data for the development of the empirical formulation by regression analysis. Stainless steel was employed as materials and the strain rate effect was also taken into account. For the development of empirical formulation, a wide range of parametric studies were conducted by considering the main design parameters for corrugated panel, such as geometric properties (corrugation angle, breadth, height and thickness) and load profiles (peak pressure and time). In the case of the blast profile, idealised triangular shape is assumed. It is expected that the obtained empirical formulation will be useful for structural designers to predict maximum deformation of blast wall installed in offshore topside structures in the early design stage.

The membrane of the LNG carriers consists of thin strips of INVAR(Fe-36%Ni) steel plates, and the junction between INVAR strips is fabricated by welding. Thousands of the raised edge joints, regularly spaced, are located around all the side of the tank corner near the transverse bulkhead, and TIG welding is manually made on the top of the raised edges. Since the thickness of all the laminated edge plies is extremely thin and the weld position is under a bad accessibility, highly skilled workers are required to perform welding relatively for a long welding time. An alternative scheme for the corner membrane fabrication is proposed in the study to improve the installation workability and thus productivity. The scheme replaces the welded edges with the preformed corrugation ones. A panel strip with regularly-spaced corrugations is installed at the corner instead of the individual flat strip of which edge is vertically raised to be welded with the adjacent strip. In the study, a series of the evaluation on the corrugated edge members was performed to assess the applicability to the real LNG carrier fabrication. Opening displacement at the raised edge was experimentally examined. Elastic stiffness regressed from the displacement was nearly same in both edge types. Edge displacement and local stresses were calculated under hydrostatic pressure and temperature change due to liquefied cargo. Fatigue test was performed on both corrugated and welded edge specimens consisting of two or five plies of invar strips. Fatigue strength of the corrugated specimens was not less than that of the welded specimens.

환경 문제로 인해 기존 연료를 대체하는 천연가스의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라, 액화천연가스 운반선의 화물창이 거대화되면서 화물창 내의 슬로싱 하중이 증가하게 된다. 액화천연가스 화물창의 종류 중 하나인 Mark-III 타입의 1차 방벽은 액화천연가스와 직접적으로 접촉하고 있으며 슬로싱 하중 및 액화천연가스의 자중을 받는다. 슬로싱 하중에 의해 다양한 범위의 하중이 1차 방벽에 지속적으로 작용하며 이로 인해 피로 파괴를 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Mark-III 타입의 1차 방벽을 포함한 단열시스템을 유한요소 모델로 구성하였으며 1차 방벽에 대해 피로수명을 평가하여 피로 특성을 확인하였다. 수치해석을 통해 주응력 범위 및 최대 주응력이 발생하는 위치를 계산하였으며 이를 통해 1차 방벽의 피로수명을 수치적으로 평가하였다. 또한, 다양한 단열시스템 타입에 대해 모델링을 실시하였으며, 피로수명 평가 결과를 통해 1차 방벽의 피로 파괴 안전성을 확보하는 최적의 단열시스템에 대해 제안하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 Mark-III 타입 1차 방벽의 피로 기반 설계에 있어 활용가치가 있을 것으로 판단된다.
