This paper describes a new pivoting technique to improve bearing performance in pivoted pad thrust bearings. This new technique adjusts the pivot line in a line pivoted pad thrust bearing to be parallel to the trailing edge of a sector shaped pad. Bearing performance factors such as load carrying capacity, frictional torque and flow rate are numerically investigated for conventional point-pivoted and line-pivoted pads and for the new parallel-line pivoting technique. It is shown that the load carving capacity can be maximized with the new technique.

In this paper, linearized dynamic characteristics of parallel line pivoted pad thrust bearing (here-inafter refer to PLP thrust bearing) was analyzed by perturbation method with inlet pressure. Inlet pressure and excitation frequency influence dynamic characteristics of PLP thrust bearing at all operating conditions, such as angular pivot position, mass of pad. Therefore, the characteristics have to be analyzed with inlet pressure, excitation frequency, mass of pad and thickness of pad. Otherwise, the analysis may be over or under estimate.

This paper conducts a study on methods for associating multipath tracks received by a horizontal line array sonar. The horizontal line array sonar introduces conical bearing ambiguities due to its array-shaped characteristics. Target signals are often subject to multipath propagation in the ocean, resulting in errors in target bearing estimation due to these bearing ambiguities. Recent research efforts have been directed toward using multipath tracks to estimate the positions of targets. However, there has been a lack of research dedicated to identifying multipath tracks from the measurements of a horizontal line array sonar. Therefore, this study identifies the conical bearing characteristics of multipath signals based on the result of experiment and establishes criteria for associating multipath tracks. Additionally, Simulations are performed to determine the ability to associate multipath tracks.

선 배열 소나는 배열 이득으로 인해 단일 소나에 비해 상대적으로 음압이 낮은 표적 신호일 경우에도 방위 추정이 가능한 장점이 있다. 하지만 선 배열 소나에서는 표적의 방향을 나타내는 표적 방위각과 음파의 다중경로에서 발생되는 수직각의 영향으로 방위 오차가 발생하며 이로 인해 수신 신호로부터 표적 방위를 추정하는데 어려움이 존재한다. 수중의 음파 전달 환경에 의해 발생하는 다중경로는 각 경로별로 상이한 수직각을 가지므로 이러한 특성이 선배열 소나의 방위 추정에 미치는 영향에 대해 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 선 배열 소나에서 다중경로의 영향으로 인해 발생하게 되는 방위 오차를 확인하며 해저면 반사 경로에서 수직각에 의한 오차를 모의하여 환경에 따른 방위 오차의 차이를 분석한다. 또한 추정된 방위각에서 거리에 따라 방위 오차를 고려한 예상 표적 방위선을 도출한다.

Open steel plate girder (OPSG) bridges are the most prevalent railroad bridge type in Korea, constituting about 40% of all railroad bridges. Solid steel bearings, known as line type bearings, are placed in most OSPG railway bridges. However, the line type rigid bearings generate several problems with the bridge's dynamic behavior and maintenance in service. To compare and investigate the dynamic behaviors of line type, spherical and disk bearings, the vertical displacements of each bearing, including fixed and expansion type, under running vehicles are measured and analyzed. The displacements of disk and spherical bearings are measured after replacing the line type bearings with spherical and disk bearings. This study also analyzed dynamic behaviors of bridges. Furthermore, the deformation of the PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) plate that is placed inside of expansion type spherical and disk bearings is measured and its effect on the dynamic behavior of the bridges is discussed. The up-lift phenomenon at the bearings installed for the steel bridges is estimated. The vertical displacements at mid-span of the bridges are compared according to the bearing types. Finally, the 1st mode natural frequencies are estimated, and the relationship to the vertical displacement is discussed.

This research evaluated the different types of deck to pier connections effects (one or two elastomeric bearing lines and rigid) on a concrete bridges. Three-dimensional bridge models behavior with different deck to pier connections and different distances of two bearing lines were studied under the service load. Also, the detailed connection system with two elastomeric bearing lines was modeled to evaluate the effect of changing distance between two-lines. Results indicated that the proper location of elastomeric bearings has a major impact on the transferring forces to the substructure. Double elastomeric bearing lines have a behavior between one line and rigid connections. Transferring bending moment to the substructure in two-lines is more than the corresponding value of the one line. Moreover, an increase in the distance of two-lines lead to a significant increase in the rotational stiffness of the connection, and an analytical solution was investigated for their relation. In fact, the semi-rigidity effect of this connection and its change due to the distance of bearings should be considered in the design process.

예인형 선 배열 소나는 구조적인 특성상 배열 축을 중심으로 대칭적인 빔을 형성하기 때문에 탐지된 표적에 대하여 좌/우 방위 구분에 있어 모호성을 드러낸다. 이러한 예인형 선 배열의 좌/우 구분이 모호한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 고정형 카디오이드 빔을 적용한 방법이 사용되었다. 하지만 고정형 카디오이드 빔을 사용할 경우 약 11°이내의 영역에서 카디오이드 빔의 후면 이득에 대한 영향을 줄일 수가 없기 때문에 좌/우 분리 성능이 저하된다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 적응형 카디오이드 빔을 사용하여 후면 빔의 이득을 줄임으로써 예인형 선 배열의 성능을 향상시켰다.

Bearing and frequency measurements of TMA (Target Motion Analysis) in passive line array SONAR have lower bearing rate and frequency doppler, and are not detected or tracked continuously because of various ocean environments. This is a main reason to effect the TMA performance and it takes a long time to get TMA solutions. We propose the bearing and frequency TMA(BFTMA) using accumulative batch estimation to solve the TMA problem of line array passive SONAR. The accumulative batch estimation structure is based on MLE (Maximum Likelihood Estimation) but used accumulative measurements. The accumulative batch estimation is applied for the BFTMA with nonlinear Kalman filter to estimate the target range, speed and course. Simulation and sea data analysis were carried out to verify the performance and applicability of the proposed techniques.
