본 연구는 민간 회전익항공기 사고의 80% 이상이 조종과실이라는 사실과는 대조적으로, 모든 국내 회전익항공기 조종사들은 군에서 많은 경험을 가지고 민간 분야에서 종사한다는 점에서 어떤 특정한 환경적 요인이 있을 것이라는 명제를 바탕으로 연구를 시작하게 되었다. 우리는 지난 10년간 총 14건의 민간 회전익 항공기 사고가 있었다. 그중 9건 (64%)이 항공기 외부에 인양물을 매달은 채로 사고가 발생했다는 사실과 국내 외부인양물에 대한 구체적인 훈련 규정이 없다는 점을 반영하여, 우선 조종사 외부 인양물 훈련에 대한 국내외 훈련 및 자격 부여 과정을 비교 분석하였다. 그리고 조종사 훈련과 관련된 미국 연방항공청 (FAA) 파트 133 규정인 회전익 항공기(헬리콥터)를 이용한 외부화물 운송관련 법률과 국내 법률을 비교 분석하여 시사점을 도출하여 국내 상황을 적합한 외부인양물에 대한 조종사 훈련과 자격부여에 대한 대안을 제시하고자 하였다.

The objective of this study is to investigate the perceived discomfort for postures combined with shoulder flexion/extension and elbow flexion, and external load. 12 healthy male undergraduate and graduate students participated in this experiment. Experimental variables were the shoulder flexion/extension angle(-20°, 0°, 45°, 90°, 135°), the elbow flexion angle (0°, 45°, 120°), and the external load(0, 1.5Kg, 3Kg) as independent variables and a whole body perceived discomfort using Borg's CR10 as a dependent variable. The subjects maintained the given posture for 60 seconds and then rated the perceived discomfort. The ANOVA results showed that all main factors and two-way interactions were statistically significant at α=0.05. As a result of regression analysis to examine the effect of external load on the perceived discomfort, the perceived discomfort linearly increased as the level of external load increased. Then, the effect of external load on the perceived discomfort was quantitatively classified into three levels based on the result of regression analysis.

In this study a MRAC(model reference adaptive control) for fluid power elevator model system was designed. The MRAC was compared with PI control in case of applying to the elevator model system with constant external load and changing external load. In this case external load was produced by a single fluid power cylinder combined with pressure control valve. In conclusion the MRAC control performance was better than PI control performance because overshoot and steady state error of the elevator model system controlled by the MRAC were not appeared for constant and changing external load.

In coastal regions, it is common to witness significant damages on low-rise buildings caused by hurricanes and other extreme wind events. These damages start at high pressure zones or weak building components, and then cascade to other building parts. The state-of-the-art in experimental and numerical aerodynamic load evaluation is to assume buildings with intact envelopes where wind acts only on the external walls and correct for internal pressure through separate aerodynamic studies. This approach fails to explain the effect of openings on (i) the external pressure, (ii) internal partition walls; and (iii) the load sharing between internal and external walls. During extreme events, non-structural components (e.g., windows, doors or rooftiles) could fail allowing the wind flow to enter the building, which can subject the internal walls to lateral loads that potentially can exceed their load capacities. Internal walls are typically designed for lower capacities compared to external walls. In the present work, an anticipated damage development scenario is modelled for a four-story building with a stepped gable roof. LES is used to examine the change in the internal and external wind flows for different level of assumed damages (starting from an intact building up to a case with failure in most windows and doors are observed). This study demonstrates that damages in non-structural components can increase the wind risk on the structural elements due to changes in the loading patterns. It also highlights the load sharing mechanisms in low rise buildings.

The objectives of this study are to analyze representative wrist postures while using hand tools and parts at general assembly processes, to evaluate perceived discomfort on the wrist when external loads are present, and to suggest an evaluation and prediction model of perceived discomfort. Sixteen subjects participated in an experiment to appraise perceived discomfort. Three types of the wrist postures with five levels of non-neutralities were analyzed when five levels of external load were applied to each posture. The ANOVA results showed that the perceived discomfort of wrist postures was significantly affected by both the wrist posture and external load (p$<$0.001). It was also shown that some of the interactions between external loads and the wrist postures(Flexion/$Extension^*$Load, Flexion/$Extension^*$supination/pronation, ulnar/radial $deviation^*$supination/pronation) were significant(p$<$0.001). The result implies that a new posture classification scheme for workload assessment methods may be needed to reflect such effects of external load and wrist posture. A regression model of perceived discomfort was developed with respect to wrist posture and external load from the experimental data. A subsequent experiment revealed that the correlation coefficient between the predicted values of perceived discomfort from the model and the actual values obtained from the experiment was about 0.98. It is expected that the results help to properly estimate the body stress resulting from worker's postures and external loads and can be used as a valuable design guideline to analyze potential hazard of musculoskeletal diseases in industry.

This study is aimed to show that an asymmetric load in the frontal plane leads to an increase in low back loading and fatigue in comparison with a symmetric load when workers lift an external weight by investigating previous studies and verifying the phenomenon with an experiment. Ten male subjects are required to lift and hold an given external load at 70cm height during 50sec, then the EMG amplitude and median frequency on bilateral low back muscle groups (Longissimus, Iliocostalis, and Multifidus) are recorded and analyzed. Independent variables are two-level load weight (13kg, 20kg) and three-level LCG (Center, 6.5cm to the right, and 13cm to the right), and dependent variables are EMG amplitude average, difference, and Fatigue Index (FI). Results show that load weight increases significantly amplitude average and FI, but LCG does significantly amplitude difference and FI significantly (P-value < 0.05). Also the correlation coefficient between amplitude difference and FI is over 0.99. These implies that trunk loading should be explained by not EMG amplitude but muscle fatigue aspect since the association between an external load and amplitude is linear, but the relationship between an external load and median frequency as muscle fatigue index is almost exponential.

This study aims to determine the cause of the load resistance loss in storage racks that can be attributed to external forces such as earthquakes and to improve safety by developing reinforcement systems that can prevent load resistance loss. To this end, a static cyclic loading test was performed on pallet racks commonly used in logistics warehouses. The test results indicated that a pallet rack exposed to an external force loses more than 50% of its load resistance owing to the damage caused to column-beam joints. Three reinforcement systems were developed for preventing load resistance loss in storage racks exposed to an external force and for performing differentiated target functions: column reinforcement device, seismic damper, and viscoelastic damper. Shake table testing was performed to evaluate the earthquake response and verify the performance of these reinforcement systems. The results confirmed that, the maximum displacement, which causes the loss of load resistance and the permanent deformation of racks under external force, is reduced using the developed reinforcement devices. Thus, the appropriate selection of the developed reinforcement devices by users can help secure the safety of the storage racks.

Optimization for the insulation thickness and external shape of a household refrigerator is peformed in order to minimize thermal load through the insulation wall. The one dimensional conduction heat transfer model is adopted to calculate thermal load. Calculus of variation is employed to optimize the thickness and shape of refrigerator or freezer. The uniform distribution of an insulation thickness and cubed external shape make thermal load minimize. Finally, by using both of the computational and experimental method, the thermal load is minimized for a refrigerator/freezer. It is shown that there exists optimal thickness of insulation walls and external shape for given the external cabinet dimensions and freezer and refrigerator internal volumes, Also, the analytical results are well agreed with the experimental results.

The purpose of this study is to quantitatively investigate perceived discomfort of complex shoulder postures with external loads and to propose a preliminary evaluation scheme of shoulder postures. Twelve healthy male adults participated in an experiment to rate their perceived discomfort of shoulder postures. The independent variables were shoulder flexion angle(45, 90 and 150$^{\circ}$), adduction/abduction angle(-30, -10, 0, 30 and 60$^{\circ}$), and external load(0, 1.5 and 3.0kg). The results revealed that the flexion angle, external load and their interaction significantly affected the perceived discomfort(p$<$0.05) but the effect of adduction/abduction angle on the discomfort was not significant(p$>$0.05). The effect of external load was much larger than that of any other factor with explaining about 81% of the total variation of discomfort scores. Based on the experimental results a preliminary scheme was presented to evaluate the stress of shoulder postures with external loads.

파일런 내부에 장착되는 외부장착물 분리장치(BRU)는 외부연료탱크나 외부무장 등의 외부장착물을 고정하는 역할을 하며, 비상시에는 외부장착물을 분리하는 역할을 한다. 특히, 외부장착물을 분리시킬 때 BRU에 의해 발생하는 하중을 펀칭하중이라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 파일런에 작용하는 BRU 펀칭하중 조건에서 파일런의 구조 건전성을 검증하기 위해 수행한 구조 정적시험 결과를 제시하였다. 구조 정적시험에서 외부장착물의 분리하중에 대한 구현방식과 BRU 펀칭하중 조건에 대한 시험 프로파일을 제시하였고, 각 시험에서 하중제어의 적절성을 판단하기 위해 하중 입력신호와 출력신호 사이의 오차를 비교하였다. 그리고, 파일런의 주요 위치에서 수치해석 결과와 시험에서 계측된 변형률을 비교하였다. 시험 결과, 시험수행 간에 시험하중이 잘 제어되었고, 수치해석이 시험결과를 잘 예측한 것으로 파악되었다. 최종적으로, 설계 제한하중과 설계 극한하중에 의해 수행된 구조 정적시험을 통해 본 연구에서 다루고 있는 항공기용 파일런은 외부장착물 분리하중에 대해 충분한 구조 강도를 보유하고 있음을 검증하였다.
