Since its introduction in Korea, design VE has widely been used as a means to enhance values in the construction industry. However, a greater emphasis is still placed on cost reduction in approach attitudes and performance evaluations on the implementation of design VE. In this regard, this study presented a performance evaluation method for cost, function, and value of VE proposals. Numerical criteria on the increase and decrease of cost and function that can classify the value enhancement type of VE proposals were proposed based on the performance evaluation method. It is expected that the use of numerical criteria for the type classification of VE proposal, and cost and performance evaluation method proposed in this study will make it possible to conduct a clear and more intuitive evaluation of VE proposal. However, it is appropriate to use the numerical criteria as a guideline to apply the new performance evaluation method for VE proposals. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a statistical analysis with a wider range of users after the repeated application of the findings of this study, and thus to carry out research for presenting the numerical criteria for various types of users.

The electrification trend of mobility increases every year due to the development of power semiconductor and battery technology. Accordingly, the development and distribution of fast chargers for electric vehicles (EVs) are in demand. In this study, we propose a design and implementation method of an LLC converter for fast chargers. Two 15 kW LLC converters are configured in parallel to have 30 kW rated output power, and the control algorithm and driving sequence are designed accordingly and verified. In addition, the improved power conversion efficiency is confirmed through zero-voltage switching (ZVS) of the LLC converter and reduction of turn-off loss through snubber capacitors. The implemented 30 kW LLC converters show a wide output voltage range of 200-950 V. Experiments applying various load conditions verify the converter performance.

도심지 개발사업에 따라 철도구조물 인근에서 지반굴착을 위한 가시설 구조물을 시공하는 사례가 증가하고 있다. 또한 가시설 구조물 설치 후 신축한 대형건물에 주거하는 사람들로부터 열차진동에 대한 민원도 증가하고 있다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 건물의 설계단계부터 열차진동을 저감하기 위한 방법이 고려되고, 건물 신축 시 구조물에 방진시스템이 설치된다. 그러나 구조물 설계단계에서 수립되는 방진대책은 특정 지역에 대한 현장계측 또는 동적 수치해석의 결과를 통해 결정할 수 있고, 객관적인 관련 연구 자료가 부족하여 수립한 방진대책의 적정성을 평가하는데 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 방진대책의 수립을 위한 객관적인 기초자료 제공을 목적으로 수치해석을 통해 철도구조물의 심도, 철도와 가시설 구조물의 이격거리 및 지반조건을 달리하여 시속 80km/h인 운행열차를 대상으로 동적 수치해석을 수행하였다. 연구결과, 시속 80km/h인 운행열차의 영향범위는 가시설 벽체가 설치된 조건의 경우 철도구조물로부터 이격거리 4.5D이내인 것으로 나타났다.

최근 가정용 에어컨은 냉방효율뿐 아니라 소음에 대한 중요성이 지속적으로 높아지고 있다. 로터리 압축기는 에어컨의 소음 중 매우 높은 영향도를 가지고 있으며, 압축기의 소음을 줄이기 위해 머플러 및 공명기에 관한 많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 압축기의 부품 중 어큐뮬레이터는 큰 용적으로 인해 공명에 의한 추가 소음을 에어컨에 전달하는 소음 전달경로가 되며, 어큐뮬레이터의 내부구조는 소음저감을 위해 중요한 설계요소가 되나 지금까지는 연구결과가 미비한 수준이었다. 본 논문에서는 어큐뮬레이터의 소음 저감을 위해 목표주파수 대역에서의 투과손실이 최대가 되는 설계최적화를 수행하였다. 높은 비선형성을 가진 문제의 최적화를 위해 실험계획법과 반경기저신경망기법을 이용한 근사 모델을 사용하였으며, 유전알고리즘을 사용한 최적화를 수행하였다.

The torque ripple of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) is the main disadvantage that limits the industrial application of these motors. Although several methods for smooth-toque operation (STO) have been proposed, STO works well only within a certain torque and speed range because of the constraints of the supply voltage and peak current. Based on previous work that sought to expand the STO range, a scheme is developed in this study to determine the maximum smooth torque range at each speed. The relationship between the maximum smooth torque and speed is defined as the smooth torque speed characteristics (STSC), a concept similar to torque speed characteristics (TSC). STSC can be utilized to evaluate torque utilization by comparing it with TSC. Thus, the concept benefits the special design of SRMs, especially for the generation of smooth torque. Furthermore, the torque sharing function (TSF) derived from the proposed method can be applied to STO, which produces a higher smooth torque over a wider speed range in contrast to four typical TSFs. TSimulation and experimental results verify the proposed method.

Shape optimal design of an excavator boom to minimize weight can be formulated as a nonlinear programming problem with an automesh refinement carried out by using the finite element method. The design variables are the radii and the coordinates of the circle to describe the excavator boundary shape. In addition to the displacement and stress constraints, geometric constraints are imposed such that the nodes cannot cross the certain range. The optimum design is obtained by using the PLBA nonlinear programming code. The sensitivity derivatives are calculated using the semi-analytical scheme. Numerical results of an excavator boom show potential for weight reduction of 4.4%(65.6 kgf) when considering the displacement, stress and geometric constraints.

Purpose: This study applied the Korean Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (K-MBSR) program for mothers of children and adolescents with mental illnesses, and verified its effectiveness on perceived stress and depression based on the Middle-range theory of caregiver stress. Methods: A quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group pre-post test design was used. The K-MBSR program was reconstructed with experts' advice to adjust subjects' characters. Using a group approach, sessions were conducted once a week for six weeks, and each session took 2.5 hours. Results: The experimental group did not show a significant decrease in perceived stress than the control group. However, the experimental group showed a significant decrease in depression than the control group. Conclusion: The K-MBSR program was effective for depression. Future studies on high-stress groups or with an extended program are necessary to clarify the effects of the K-MBSR program on perceived stress. These results are consistent with the middle-range theory of caregiver stress, the theoretical framework of this study. When caregivers have similar inputs, proper intervention can change the control process. Further, it can be assumed that this change positively affects the output.

The endless scaling down of the semiconductor process made the impact of the power network noise on the performance of the state-of-the-art chip a serious design problem. This paper compares the performances of two popular circuit reduction approaches used to improve the efficiency of power network noise analysis: moment matching-based model order reduction (MOR) and node elimination-based MOR. As the benchmarks, we chose PRIMA and R2Power as the matching-based MOR and the node elimination-based MOR. Experimental results indicate that the accuracy, efficiency, and memory requirement of both methods very strongly depend on the structure of the given circuit, i.e., numbers of the nodes and sources, and the number of moments to preserve for PRIMA. PRIMA has higher accuracy in general, while the error of R2Power is also in the acceptable range. On the other hand, PRIMA has the higher efficiency than R2Power, only when the numbers of nodes and sources are small enough. Otherwise, R2Power clearly outperforms PRIMA in efficiency. In the memory requirement, the memory size of PRIMA increases very quickly as the numbers of nodes, sources, and preserved moments increase.

An experimental study on the air-side pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient of slit fin-tube heat exchanger has been carried out. The data reduction methodology for air-side heat transfer coefficients in the literature is not based on a consistent approach. This paper focuses on new method of data reduction to obtain the air-side performance of fin-tube heat exchanger using R22 and recommends standard procedures for dry and wet surface heat transfer estimation in fin-tube heat exchanger having refrigerant on the tube-side. Results are presented as plots of friction f-factor and Colburn j -factor against Reynolds number based on the fin collar outside diameter and compared with previous studies. The data covers a range of refrigerant mass fluxes of 150∼250 kg/$m^2$s with air flows at velocity ranges from 0.3 m/s to 0.8 m/s.
