The paper presents an investigation into the mode conversion and scattering characteristics of guided waves at delaminations in laminated composite beams. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model, which is experimentally verified using data measured by 3D scanning laser vibrometer, is used in the investigation. The study consists of two parts. The first part investigates the excitability of the fundamental anti-symmetric mode ($A_0$) of guided wave in laminated composite beams. It is found that there are some unique phenomena, which do not exist for guided waves in plate structures, make the analysis become more complicated. The phenomena are observed in numerical study using 3D FE simulations. In the second part, several delaminated composite beams are studied numerically to investigate the mode conversion and scattering characteristics of the $A_0$ guided wave at delaminations. Different sizes, locations and through-thickness locations of the delaminations are investigated in detail. The mode conversion and scattering phenomena of guided waves at the delaminations are studied by calculating reflection and transmission coefficients. The results show that the sizes, locations and through-thickness locations of the delaminations have significant effects on the scattering characteristics of guided waves at the delaminations. The results of this research would provide better understanding of guided waves propagation and scattering at the delaminations in the laminated composite beams, and improve the performance of guided wave damage detection methods.

This paper reports on a proof-of-concept experimental investigation focused on evaluating the vibration characteristics and control of smart hollow cantilever beams filled with an electro-rheological(ER) fluid. The beams are considered to be of uniform viscoelastic materials and modelled as a viscously-damped harmonic oscillator. Electric field-dependent natural frequencies, loss factors and complex moduli are evaluated and compared among three different beams : two types of different volume fraction of ER fluid and one type of different particle concentration of ER fluid by weight. Modal characteristics of the beams are observed in both the absence and the presence of electric potentials. It is also shown that by constructing active control algorithm the removal of structural resonances and the suppression of tip deflection are obtained. This result provides the feasiblility of ER fluids as an active vibration control element.

This paper describes the various characteristics of voltage sags and temporary interruptions which can affect the functions of 3-phase induction motors. These assorted characteristics include motor speed loss, voltage recovery, motor reacceleration, and transient characteristics. An experimental study on induction motor behavior was also carried out to confirm these impacts. Besides, sequential voltage sags of short duration were considered for this paper. The results show that the occurrence of the second voltage sag after the first one may affects the induction motor adversely.

우주 발사체 및 과학관측로켓에 유발되는 음향 하중의 주 원인은 추진기관의 제트 소음에 의한 것이다. 따라서 성공적인 임무 수행을 위한 음향 하중의 저감을 위해서는 반드시 추진 기관의 제트 소음(초음속)의 특성을 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 이를 위해 먼저 제트 유동에 의한 음향 하중의 발생 메카니즘을 살펴보았다. 그리고, 음향 하중에 영향을 주는 인자를 도출하고, 도출된 인자에 따른 음향 하중의 특성 변화를 살펴보았다. 3단형 과학 관측 로켓(KSR-III)의 음향 하중의 시공간적인 특성을 엔진 연소 시험시 측정된 소음 신호를 이용하여 분석하였다. KSR-III의 음향 하중의 최대값은 250 Hz, 500 Hz의 옥타브 밴드에 집중되어 있으며, 공간적으로 랜덤함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 추후 음향 하중의 특성 파악을 위한 자체적인 연구 방향을 제안하였다.

Recently, the advanced industries using micro parts are rapidly growing. The appearance of ultra-precision feed mechanism and the development of control system make it possible to process parts in sub millimeter scale by mechanical methods. Micro endmilling is one of the prominent technology that has wide spectrum of application field ranging from macro parts to micro products. So, micro stairs have been trying to cut by using high revolution air turbine spindle and micro-endmill, and studying for magnitude of cutting force. This investigation deals removal characteristics of burr generated by micro endmilling process. Also, decreasing of burr is significant problem in making smooth and precise parts in micro endmilling. In micro endmilling, the material removal rate(MRR) and cutting forces are very small. This paper presents an investigation on the machining characteristics for micro stairs by using ultrahigh-speed air turbine spindle in machining.

Since the fuel is always exposed to turbulent flow, the grid strap shows flow induced vibration characteristics that impact on the nuclear fuel soundness. The dynamic behavior of grids in nuclear fuels is quite complex, since two pairs of spring and dimple support are contacted with rods by friction in the limited space. This paper focuses on investigation of the grid strap(test fuel strap, TFS) vibration in one cell. TFS consists of a single spring and double dimples. To identify the grid strap vibration, modal analysis of the strap is performed using finite element method(FEM). Modal testing on a $5{\times}5$ grid structure without rods is performed. The modal testing results are compared to analytic results. In addition, random test considering rod effect is performed about a $5{\times}5$ grid with rods under real contact condition in the air. Finally, the strap vibration of a $5{\times}5$ fuel bundle in investigation of flow induced vibration(INFINIT) facility is measured in real fluid velocity condition without heating. It is shown that modal frequencies from the test are almost equal to those peak frequencies in the INFINIT test.

Surge motion of top-end platform induced by periodic wave makes marine flexible riser encounter equivalent sheared-oscillatory flow, under which the Vortex-induced Vibration (VIV) response will be more complicated than pure sheared flow or oscillatory flow cases. Based on a time domain force-decomposition model, the VIV response characteristics under sheared-oscillatory flows are investigated numerically in this paper. Firstly, the adopted numerical model is validated well against laboratory experiments under sheared flow and oscillatory flow. Then, 20 sheared-oscillatory flow cases with different oscillation periods and top maximum current velocities are designed and simulated. Under long and short oscillation period cases, the structural response presents several similar features owing to the instantaneous sheared flow profile at each moment, but it also has some different patterns because of the differently varying flow field. Finally, the effects and essential mechanism of oscillation period and top maximum current velocity on VIV response are discussed systematically.

This paper investigates characteristics of high power semiconductor device losses in 5MW-class Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) Medium Voltage (MV) wind turbines. High power semiconductor device of press-pack type IGCT of 6.5kV is considered in this paper. Analysis is performed based on neutral point clamped (NPC) 3-level back-to-back type voltage source converter (VSC) supplied from grid voltage of 4160V. This paper describes total loss distribution at worst case under inverter and rectifier operating mode for the power semiconductor switches. The loss analysis is confirmed through PLECS simulations. In addition, the loss factors due to di/dt snubber and ac input filter are presented. The investigation result shows that IGCT type semiconductor devices generate the total efficiency of 97.74% under the rated condition.

This paper reports the analysis of dynamic characteristics of air-cooled condenser. At first, there is an assumption that the superheated vapor flows into the condenser inlet. And in order to consider the effect of pressure change in the dynamic characteristics of the condenser the combined system of condenser and compressor was used. By using the equation of energy balance and the equation of mass balance, the basic equation for describing the dynamic characteristics of condenser can be derived. The transfer function for describing dynamic response of the condenser to flow rate change outlet can be obtained from using linearizations and Laplace transformations of the equation. From this transfer function, analytical investigation which affects the frequency responses of condenser has been made. Through this study, it became possible that the information about the dynamic characteristics of air-cooled condenser is offered. While the average heat transfer coefficient of the refrigerant side necessary for the theoretical calculation of the dynamic characteristics is given by calculation method for the tube length and pressure drop of air-cooled condenser.
