  • 구조물의 안정성에 대한 사회적 요구는 이를 충족시키기 위한 기술발전으로 이어지게 되었고, 지각구조를 이해하기 위해 개발된 탄성파기법도 구조물의 건전성을 평가하는 비파괴 기법으로 자리매김하게 되었다. 비파괴 탄성파기법의 핵심은 측정대상 매질의 탄성파 속도를 측정하는 것으로, 탄성파의 전파를 측정하는 센서를 필수적으로 사용하여야 한다. 기존의 탄성파기법은 접촉식 센서를 사용하기 때문에 이동중 연속시험이 불가능한 문제점이 있었고, 탄성파 시험의 효율성이 실용적 요구조건에 부합하지 못하는 한계성이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 비접촉식 센서의 일종인 보급형 마이크로폰을 센서로 활용하여 기존 탄성파 시험의 문제점을 극복하고자 하는 연구를 수행하였다. 다짐지반의 실시간 다짐품질 확인, 콘크리트 구조물의 재료강성 및 내부결함의 확인 등을 위한 표면파 시험과 공진시험 등을 마이크로폰 활용대상으로 설정하였고, 마이크로폰센서의 영향인자 연구, 실구조물에 대한 현장시험 등을 수행하였다. 이를 통하여 마이크로폰 센서의 신뢰성과 효율성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 최적의 마이크로폰 활용방안을 제안하였다.

  • The significance of casting/forging process for reducing the production cost of large components is being noted in these days. This casting/forging process is a method of forging a workpiece preformed by casting into the final shape. In this study, the casting/forging process has been applied in manufacturing a large aluminum flange in order to determine the optimum forging condition of the aluminum flange. The optimum range of forging temperature of Al 5083 was from $420^{\circ}C$ to $450^{\circ}C$. The suitable strain rate was 1.5 $sec^{-1}$. The deformation amount of a preform in a forging process is key role in the mechanical properties of casting/forging products. In order to find the change of mechanical properties according to effective stain of cast aluminum billets, a hot upsetting test were performed with rectangular blocks and then a uniaxial tensile test was performed with specimens cut from the upsetted billets. The tensile strength and the elongation of cast/upsetted aluminum billets were increased largely until the effective strain was 0.7. FE analysis was performed to determine the configurations of cast preform and die for an aluminum flange. In the FE analysis, the forging load-limit was fixed 1500ton for the low equipment cost. The cast preform was designed so that the effective stain around the neck of a flange exceeds 0.7. In the forging experiment for an aluminum flange, it was confirmed that the optimal configuration of the cast preform predicted by FE analysis was very useful. The cast/forged products using designed preform were made perfectly without any defects.

  • An aim of the study is to develop an efficient numerical simulation technique that can handle the two-scale analysis of fluid permeation filters fabricated by the partial sintering technique of small spherical ceramics. A solid-fluid mixture homogenization method is introduced to predict the mechanical characters such as rigidity and permeability of the porous ceramic filters from the micro-scale geometry and configuration of partially-sintered particles. An extended finite element (X-FE) discretization technique based on the enriched interpolations of respective characteristic functions at fluid-solid interfaces is proposed for the non-interface-fitted mesh solution of the micro-scale analysis that needs non-slip condition at the interface between solid and fluid phases of the unit cell. The homogenization and localization performances of the proposed method are shown in a typical two-dimensional benchmark problem whose model has a hole in center. Three-dimensional applications to the body-centered cubic (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC) unit cell models are also shown in the paper. The 3D application is prepared toward the computer-aided optimal design of ceramic filters. The accuracy and stability of the X-FEM based method are comparable to those of the standard interface-fitted FEM, and are superior to those of the voxel type FEM that is often used in such complex micro geometry cases.

  • This study aims to introduce a new bracing system by which even super-wide frames with large openings can be braced. The proposed system, hereafter called Cable-Pulley Brace (CPB), is a tension-only bracing system with a rectilinear configuration. In CPB, a wire rope passes through a rectilinear path around the opening(s) and connects the lower corner of the frame to its opposite upper one. CPB is a secondary load resisting system with a nonlinear-elastic hysteretic behavior due to its initial pre-tension load. As a result, the required energy dissipation would be provided by the MRF itself, and the main intention of using CPB is to contribute to the initial and post-yield stiffness of the whole system. Using a stiffness calibration technique, optimum placement of the CPBs is discussed to yield a uniform displacement demand along the height of the structure. A displacement-based design procedure is proposed by which the MRF with CPB can be designed to achieve a uniform distribution of inter-story drifts with predefined values. Obtained results indicated that CPB leads to significant reductions in maximum and residual deformations of the MRF at the expense of minor increase in the maximum base shear and developed axial force demands in the columns. In the case of a typical 5-story residential building, compared to SMRF system, CPB system reduces maximum amounts of inter-story and residual drifts by 35% and 70%, respectively. Moreover, openings of the frame are not interrupted by the CPB. This is the most appealing feature of the proposed bracing system from architectural point of view.

  • Recently, the development of the head mounted display (HMD) device has attracted a great deal of attention to the actual contents. Especially, Augmented Reality (AR), which is a mixture of actual information and virtual world information, is focused on. AR HMD is able to interact by arranging virtual objects in real space through spatial recognition using depth camera. In order to naturally mix virtual space with real space, it is necessary to develop a technology for realizing spatial mapping information with high accuracy. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the optimal configuration of augmented reality application program by realizing accurate spatial mapping information when mapping a real space and an object placement environment using HoloLens. To do this, we changed the spatial mapping information in real space to three levels, which are the number of meshes used in cubic meters to scan step by step. After that, it was compared with the 3D model obtained by changing the actual space and mesh number. Experimental result shows that the higher the number of meshes used in cubic meters, the higher the accuracy between real space and spatial mapping. This paper is expected to be applied to augmented reality application programs that require scanning of highly mapped spatial mapping information.

  • The following noble series of statistical copolymers, poly[(2-(3-thienyl)ethanol n-butoxycarbonylmethylurethane)-co-3-hexylthiophene] (PURET-co-P3HT), were synthesized by the chemical dehydrogenation method using anhydrous $FeCl_3$. The structure and electro-optical properties of these copolymers were characterized using $^1H$-NMR, UV-visible spectroscopy, elemental analysis, GPC, DSC, TGA, photoluminescence (PL), and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The statistical copolymers, PURET-co-P3HT (1:0, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3), were soluble in common organic solvents and easily spin coated onto indium-tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates. Hybrid bulk heterojunction photovoltaic cells with an ITO/G-PEDOT/PURET-co-P3HT:PCBM:Ag nanowires/$TiO_x$/Al configuration were fabricated, and the photovoltaic cells using PURET-co-P3HT (1:2) showed the best photovoltaic performance compared with those using PURET-co-P3HT (1:0, 2:1, 1:1, 1:3). The optimal hybrid bulk heterojunction photovoltaic cell exhibits a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 1.58% ($V_{oc}$ = 0.82 V, $J_{sc}$ = 5.58, FF = 0.35) with PURET-co-P3HT (1:2) measured by using an AM 1.5 G irradiation (100 mW/$cm^2$) on an Oriel Xenon solar simulator (Oriel 300 W).

  • 우리는 6.7 kPa의 네온 버퍼가스가 포함된 루비듐 증기셀을 이용하여 $^{87}Rb$원자 $D_1$ 전이선에서 레이저의 세기, 증기 셀의 온도, 전이 선에 따른 비선형 광자기 신호(NMOE)의 특성을 조사하였다. 비선형 광자기 신호는 레이저의 세기와 증기셀의 온도가 증가함에 따라 F=2$\to$F'=2 전이선에서는 광자기 신호의 크기와 선폭이 증가하였지만, F=2$\to$F'=1 전이선에서는 확대 없이 신호의 크기만 증가됨으로써 자장 측정 민감도가 향상되는 것을 확인하였으며, 이러한 효과를 자기부준위 사이에서의 원자결맞음 구도의 차이로 설명하였다. 관측된 최적 조건에서 자기장변화에 대한 민감도는 $70pT/\sqrt{Hz}$ 이하로 계산되었다.

  • In this article, we develop a reactive distillation (RD) column configuration for the production of hydrogen. This RD column is in the HI decomposition section of the sulphur - iodine (SI) thermochemical cycle, in which HI decomposition and H2 separation take place simultaneously. The section plays a major role in high hydrogen production efficiency (that depends on reaction conversion and separation efficiency) of the SI cycle. In the column simulation, the rigorous thermodynamic phase equilibrium and reaction kinetic model are used. The tuning parameters involved in phase equilibrium model are dependent on interactive components and system temperature. For kinetic model, parameter values are adopted from the Aspen flowsheet simulator. Interestingly, there is no side reaction (e.g., solvation reaction, electrolyte decomposition and polyiodide formation) considered aiming to make the proposed model simple that leads to a challenging prediction. The process parameters are determined on the basis of optimal hydrogen production as reflux ratio = 0.87, total number of stages = 19 and feeding point at 8th stage. With this, the column operates at a reasonably low pressure (i.e., 8 bar) and produces hydrogen in the distillate with a desired composition (H2 = 9.18 mol%, H2O = 88.27 mol% and HI = 2.54 mol%). Finally, the results are compared with other model simulations. It is observed that the proposed scheme leads to consume a reasonably low energy requirement of 327 MJ/kmol of H2.

  • 교통체증을 줄이고 접근성을 높이기 위해 국내 대도시들은 대중교통 위주의 정책에 중점을 두고 있다. 대중교통망을 개선하기 위해서는 적절한 접근성의 분석방법이 필요하게 된다. 기존의 접근성에 관한 연구들은 대부분 존(zone) 레벨에서 이루어진데 비해 본 연구에서는 버스루트나 정류장과 같이 세부레벨에서의 대안적인 접근성측정 방법을 제시한다. 시종점 경로를 구성하는 수단들의 최적의 조합을 산출하고 이들의 접근성을 토폴로지에 기반한 방법으로 측정한다. 시종점루트와 최적조합을 산출하는데에는 GA(유전자알고리즘)가 사용되었으며, 접근성 산출에는 space syntax 이론이 적용되었다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 수작업으로 그려지는 space syntax의 axial line 대신 GIS의 nodelink 데이터를 사용하였다. 최종적으로 산출된 접근성은 O-D 데이터를 이용하여 캘리브레이션하였으며, 서울 강남지역에 적용하여 예시하였다.

  • Flame bending has been extensively used in the shipbuilding industry for hull plate forming In flame bending it is difficult to obtain the desired shape because the residual deformation dependson the complex temperature distribution and the thermal plastic strain. Mechanical bending such as reconfigurable press forming multi-point press forming or die-less forming has been found to improve the automation of hull plateforming because it can more accurately control the desired shape than line heating. Multi-point forming is a process in which external forces are used to form metal work-pieces. Therefore it can be a flexible and efficient forming technique. This paper presents an optimal approach to determining the press-stroke for multi-point press forming of curved shapes. An integrated configuration of Finite element analysis (FEA) and spring-back compensation algorithm is developed to calculate the strokes of the multi-point press. Not only spring-back is modeled by elastic plastic shell elements but also an iterative algorithm to compensate the spring-back is applied to adjust the amount of pressing stroke. An iterative displacement adjustment (IDA) method is applied by integration of the FEA procedure and the spring-back compensation work. Shape deviation between the desired surface and deform£d plate is minimized by the IDA algorithm.
