본 연구에서는 경제성장기에 고층 구조물 시공에서 널리 사용된 철근콘크리트(RC, Reinforced Concrete) 구조물을 대상으로 발파해체 축소모형실험을 수행하고 전산실험결과와 이를 비교하였다. 발파해체 공법으로는 파괴거동을 비교적 쉽게 확인할 수 있는 점진붕괴공법을 적용하였으며, 축소모형실험은Hobbs(1969)에 의한 축소율의 개념에 따라 차원해석을 실시하여 축소된 강도특성을 계산하였다. 사용재료로는 석고, 모래, 물의 혼합액을 콘크리트 대용으로 사용하였다. 모래와 석고의 중량 비를 다양하게 변화시키면서 이에 따른 강도의 변화를 측정하고 최적의 강도 값을 갖는 배합 비를 결정하였다. 또한 연성을 가지고 있으며 축소강도로 비교할 때 철근과 유사한 특성을 지니는 땜용 납선을 철근대용 재료로 사용하였다. 수치해석 프로그램으로는 요소의 파괴거동을 육안으로 확인할 수 있는 개별 요소법(DEM Distinct Element Method)에 의해 수행되는 상용코드인 PFC2D(Particle Flow Code 2-Dimension)을 사용하였다. 모형의 제작은 실내에서 미리 양생된 부재들을 현장으로 옮겨 연결부만을 타설하여 일체화시키는 방법으로 이루어졌다. 먼저 3차원 무근 콘크리트 라멘 구조의 모형을 설계하고 그 축소 모형을 발파해체하여 그 거동을 촬영하였다. 이를 수치적인 해석과 비교하는 과정을 통해 2차원 해석이라는 한계성은 존재하지만 대체로 유사한 형태의 거동을 보임을 알 수 있었다. 사전해석의 경험과 RC 보의 실내 굴곡 실험결과를 근거로 하여 RC 구조모형의 발파해체 사전해석을 실시하였다. 시차는 200㎳로 하여 점진적으로 붕괴되도록 설계하였다. 모형실험과는 달리 2차원 해석이라는 한계에도 불구하고 900㎳까지 매우 유사한 거동을 보이며 붕괴되었다.

The solution for PFC(Power Factor Correction), as a regulation in energy Policy, is becoming a hot Issue in every country because of the shortage of electrical energy. Therefore, a new improved idea for PFC problem has been introduced in this study. A lot of merits, effective cost by simple circuit, reduced PCB size, lighter than reactor in the view of weight, lower level of screen noise by leakage inductance in CTV applications, have been stated by comparing to the earlier method of using a Reactor. All test results in this statement were done by using a power device of STR-G9600 series based on the real load condition of color television. furthermore, the study shows that the test results also meets the IEC-1000-3-2 class D, which regulates the PFC when input power of a set is more than 75watts. More improved PFC in other applications hopes to be implemented by using the proposed method.

This paper presents the design considerations and analysis for an interleaved boundary conduction mode power factor correction buck converter. A thorough analysis of the harmonic content of the AC line current is presented to examine the allowable voltage gain (K value) for meeting the EN61000-3-2, Class D standard while maximizing efficiency. The results of the harmonic analysis are used to derive the required value of K and therefore the output voltage necessary to meet the class D requirements for a given AC line voltage. The discussed design consideration and harmonic current analysis are verified on a 300W universal line experimental prototype converter with an 80V output. The measured efficiencies remain above 96% down to 20% of the full load. The input current harmonics also meet the IEC61000-3-2 (class D) standard.

In this paper, the effects of particle size and model scale of concrete has been investigated on the failure mechanism of PFC2D numerical models under uniaxial compressive test. For this purpose, rectangular models with same particle sizes and different model dimensions, i.e., $3mm{\times}6mm$, $6mm{\times}12mm$, $12mm{\times}24mm$, $25mm{\times}50mm$ and $54mm{\times}108mm$, were prepared. Also rectangular models with dimension of $54mm{\times}108mm$ and different particle sizes, i.e., 0.27 mm, 0.47 mm, 0.67 mm, 0.87 mm, 1.07 mm, 1.87 mm and 2.27 mm were simulated using PFC2D and tested under uniaxial compressive test. Concurrent with uniaxial test, direct shear test was performed on the numerical models. Dimension of the models were $75{\times}100mm$. Two narrow bands of particles with dimension of $37.5mm{\times}20mm$ were removed from upper and lower of the model to supply the shear test condition. The particle sizes in the models were 0.47 mm, 0.57 mm, 0.67 mm and 0.77 mm. The result shows that failure pattern was affected by model scale and particle size. The uniaxial compressive strength and shear strength were increased by increasing the model scale and particle size.

The mechanical behaviour of layered concrete samples containing an internal crack was numerically studied by modelling the geo-mechanical specimens in the particle flow code in two dimensions (PFC2D). The numerical modelling software was calibrated with the experimental results of the Brazilian tensile strengths gained from the laboratory disc-type specimens. Then, the samples with the bedding layers and internal notch were numerically simulated with PFC2D under uniaxial compressive loading. In each specimen, the layers' thickness was 10 mm but the layer's inclination angle was changed to 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120° and 150°. Of course, the layers'interfaces are considered to have very low strengths. The internal notch was kept at 3 cm in length however, its inclination angle was changed to 0°, 40°, 60° and 90°. Therefore, a total, of 24 numerical models were made to study the failure mechanism of the layered concrete samples. Considering these results, it has been concluded that the inclination angles of both internal crack and bedding layers affect the failure mechanism and uniaxial compressive strength of the concrete.

본 연구에서는 개별요소해석 프로그램인 $PFC^{3D}$를 이용하여 대입경 조립재료의 특정 입도분포를 구현하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 기존의 입자 형상이나 입도를 구현하기 위해 사용되었던 clump logic 또는 cluster logic을 사용하지 않으며 요소의 경계면 이탈 현상과 경계면 파괴 등을 방지할 수 있는 초기 개별요소 모델링 기법을 고안하였다. 최종적으로 대입경 조립재료에 대한 대형 삼축압축시험을 수치 모델링하고 실내시험 결과와 비교하였다. 해석 결과, 실제 시료의 입도분포와 매우 흡사한 분포의 개별요소를 생성할 수 있었고, 적정 미시물성치 산정 과정(calibration)을 통해 다양한 구속응력 조건에 대한 대입경 조립재료의 특정 입도분포하에서의 전체적인 수치 모델링이 가능하였다.

Primary frequency control(PFC) has the ability to regulate short period random variations of frequency during normal operation conditions and also to respond rapidly to emergencies. However, during the past decade, numerous significant sized blackouts occurred worldwide that resulted in serious economic losses. Therefore, the conclusion has been reached that the ability of the current PFC to meet an emergency is poor, and security of power systems should be improved. An alternative to enhance the PFC and thus security is to store excessive amounts of energy during off-peak load periods in efficient energy storage systems for substituting the primary control reserve. In this sense, superconducting magnetic energy storage(SMES) in combination with a static synchronous compensator(STATCOM) is capable of supplying power systems with both active and reactive powers simultaneously and very rapidly, and thus is able to enhance the security dramatically. In this paper, a new concept of PFC based on incorporating a STATCOM-SMES is presented. A complete detailed model is proposed and a new control scheme is designed, comprising an enhanced frequency control scheme, and a fully decoupled current control strategy in d-q coordinates with a novel controller to prevent dc bus capacitors voltage drift/imbalance. The performance of the proposed control schemes is validated through digital simulation carried out using MATLAB/Simulink.

This paper suggests an isolated PFC converter for electric vehicle (EV) chargers with wide-output voltage range. The proposed converter is based on voltage-fed full-bridge structure. All the harmonic and output controls are performed by secondary and primary switches are only operated under a fixed frequency with 50% duty-ratio. In addition, harmonic modulation technique is adopted to obtain a near unity power factor without input current monitoring. The feasibility of the proposed charger has been verified with a 10-kW prototype.

침투그라우팅시 미세입자의 이동 메카니즘과 미세입자들의 간극 충진 후 강도증가 상태를 파악하기 위해 PFC3D를 이용한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 해석을 위하여 업스케일링 기법을 이용하였으며 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 사실들이 관찰되었다. 첫째, 토층 입자에 대한 그라우팅 미세 입자의 상대적 크기가 0.05배에서 0.25배로 증가하면서 입자의 이동이 제한을 받게 된다. 특히, 0.20배 또는 0.25배의 그라우팅 미세입자의 경우, 토층 입자들 간의 공극이 하나 또는 다수의 미세입자들에 의해 막히기 때문에 미세입자의 이동이 거의 없다. 또한 0.05배와 0.10배의 경우, 입자의 이동량이 거의 유사하므로 입자 크기가 감소되어도 그라우팅 효과의 증진은 한계가 있다. 둘째, 침투그라우팅 전과 후의 수치시료에 대한 물성 실험을 한 결과 점착력과 마찰계수가 증가함이 확인되었다.
