산업분야에서 사용되는 플라스틱 분진은 대부분 가연성이며 화재폭발사고 위험성이 있다. 그러나 산업현장에서 안전한 취급을 위해 활용할 수 있는 폭발특성 자료는 매우 적다. 본 연구에서는 사업장에서 취급하는 다양한 플라스틱 분진 의 폭발특성을 실험적으로 조사하여 관련 자료와 안전정보를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 수행하였다. 이를 위해 20 L 분진폭발시험장치를 사용하여 각종 폭발특성값을 측정하였다. 그 결과 ABS ($209.8{\mu}m$), PE ($81.8{\mu}m$), PBT ($21.3{\mu}m$), MBS ($26.7{\mu}m$) 및 PMMA ($14.3{\mu}m$)시료의 분진폭발지수($K_{st}$)는 각각 62.4, 59.4, 70.3, 303, 203.6[$bar{\cdot}m/s$]의 값이 얻어졌다. 또한 플라스틱 분진폭발에 의한 피해예측을 위하여 분진폭발압력에서 분진의 연소속도가 일정하다고 가정하고 최대압력소요시간 및 화염도달시간을 고려한 화염전파속도모델을 통하여 분진폭발시의 화염전파속도를 추정하였다.

American NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) reported that BDF20 could reduce PM, CO, SOx, and cancerogenic matters by 13.6%, 9.3%, 17.6%, and 13% respectively, compared to diesel fuel. BDF20 has been being tested on garbage trucks and official vehicles at Seoul City, which is positive on air environment, but negative on combustion by higher viscosity in winter season. This study investigated the combustion characteristics by applying pilot injection for improving the deterioration of combustibility caused by the higher viscosity of the BDF20 with the combustion flames taken by a high-speed camera and the cylinder pressure diagram. A 4-cycle single-cylinder diesel engine was remodeled to a visible 2-cycle engine taking the flame photographs, which has a common-rail injection system. The test was done laboratory temperature at $5{\sim}6^{\circ}C$. The results obtained are summarized as follows, (1) In the case of without pilot injection, the flame propagation speed was slowed and the maximum combustion pressure became lower. The phenomena became further aggravated as the fuel viscosity gets higher. (2) In the case of with pilot injection, early stage of combustion such as rapid ignition timing and flame propagation was activated since intermediate products formed by pilot injection act as a catalyst for combustion of main fuel.

본 연구에서는 추력조절용 핀틀 노즐의 길이비에 따른 정상상태와 비정상상태 특성을 파악하기 위해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 노즐과 핀틀의 영역은 분리하여 격자를 생성하고 중첩격자기법을 사용하였다. 핀틀 형상은 길이비에 따라 5가지로 선택하였고, 정상상태 해석결과 핀틀의 길이가 길수록 추력과 추력계수가 높게 나타났다. 비정상상태 해석의 경우 핀틀의 속도에 따라서 연소실 압력 경향이 달라지며 추력과 유동구조에 영향을 미친다. 노즐 출구에서의 추력은 노즐목 단면적 변화에 빠른 응답특성을 보이며, 추력과 추력계수 등 성능 주요 인자들의 예측시 핀틀의 구동 속도와 핀틀 거동에 의한 연소실 압력파의 전달속도를 고려해야 한다.

Background: Epilobium hirsutum L. is designated as an endangered plant in South Korea located in Asia, due to the destruction of its habitats through the development of wetlands. Therefore, in this study, in order to find a light condition suitable for the growth and ecophysiological responses of Epilobium hirsutum L., those of this plant under treatment with various light qualities in a smart farm were measured. Results: In order to examine the changes in the physiological and growth responses of Epilobium hirsutum L. according to the light qualities, the treatment with light qualities of the smart farm was carried out using the red light: blue light irradiation time ratios of 1:1, 1:1/2, and 1:1/5 and a red light: blue light: white light irradiation time ratio of 1:1:1. As a result, the ecophysiological responses (difference between leaf temperature and atmospheric temperature, transpiration rate, net photosynthetic rate, intercellular CO₂ partial pressure, photosynthetic quantum efficiency) to light qualities appeared differently according to the treatments with light qualities. The increase in the blue light ratio increased the difference between the leaf temperature and the atmospheric temperature and the photosynthetic quantum efficiency and decreased the transpiration rate and the intercellular CO₂ partial pressure. On the other hand, the white light treatment increased the transpiration rate and intercellular CO₂ partial pressure and decreased the temperature difference between the leaf temperature and the ambient temperature and photosynthetic quantum efficiency. Conclusions: The light condition suitable for the propagation by the stolons, which are the propagules of Epilobium hirsutum L., in the smart farm, is red, blue and white mixed light with high net photosynthetic rates and low difference between leaf temperature and atmospheric temperature.

Hydrogen is one of the energy carriers and has high energy efficiency relative to mass. It is an eco-friendly fuel that makes only water (H₂O) as a by-product after use. In order to use hydrogen conveniently and safely, development of production, storage and transfer technologies is required and attempts are being made to apply hydrogen as an energy source in various fields through the development of the technology. For transporting and storing hydrogen include high-pressure hydrogen gas storage, a type of storage technologies consist of cryogenic hydrogen liquid storage, hydrogen storage alloy, chemical storage by adsorbents and high-pressure hydrogen storage containers have been developed in a total of four stages. The biggest issue in charging high-pressure hydrogen gas which is a combustible gas is safety and the backfire prevention device is that prevents external flames from entering the tank and prevents explosion and is essential to use hydrogen safely. This study conducted a numerical analysis to analyze the performance of suppressing flame propagation of 2, 3 inch flame arrestor. As a result, it is determined that, where the flame arrestor is attached, the temperature would be lowered below the temperature of spontaneous combustion of hydrogen to suppress flame propagation.

최근 연구시설 및 자원개발 등의 목적으로 지하공간 활용이 증가하고 있으며, 저심도 암반을 넘어 고심도 암반에 대한 개발이 증가하고 있다. 고심도 지하공간 개발은 높은 응력과 높은 온도 조건에서의 암반의 안정성을 고려해야 한다. 고심도의 경우 암반 구조와 불연속면의 상태 등이 안정성에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 지진 및 굴착을 위한 암반발파에 의한 지반진동 전파가 지하공동의 응력변화를 발생시켜 암반의 안정성에 영향을 미치게 된다. 발파공학 측면에서 지반진동을 예측하는 방법은 실측 데이터를 바탕으로 통계학적 회귀분석을 통한 경험적 회귀모형과 수치해석적 방법이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 단일공 발파에 의한 폭발압력 전파특성과 지반진동 전파특성에 대한 경험적 회귀모형을 획득하기 위하여 실험적 방법을 통해 연구를 수행하였다.

The leak before break(LBB) concept is generalized on the design of LNG tanks, pressure vessels and nuclear reactor in that any leakage of containment, in whatever amount, will not result in catastropic failure. For this purpose it is necessary to determine the surface crack shape, the opening displacement and the risk of catastropic brittle fracture when it becomes a through crack. In this study the crack propagation behavior of surface flaws and the crack opening displacement of through cracks under combined membrane and bending stresses were investigated with fatigue tests and fracture toughness test of aluminium alloy A5083-O. And fracture mechanics analysis of the crack opening displacement of through cracks were made in order to develop a new model expressing the behaviors of COD under combined membrane and bending stresses.

The reflection coefficient of a material at oblique incidence is measured in a free field. The sound pressure distributions are measured at discrete points on two measurement lines and then decomposed into plane wave components by using spatial Fourier transform. The inciedent and reflected plane wave components are obtained from a set of "decomposition equations" of which uses the plane wave propagation theory. Numerical simulations and experiments have been performed to see the effect of finite size of measurement area. To reduce this effect, a window fuction has been performed to see the effects of finite size of mesurement area. To reduce this effect, a window function has been proposed and its effect on the measurement of sound absorbing material property has been studied as well. The reflection coefficient obtained by this method is compared with those obtained from other methods; 2-microphone method in a duct and an expirical equation of which determines the characteristic impedance .rho.c and propagation constant k of a material from flow resistance information.formation.

It can improve human being's life quality that all people can have more convenient medical service under pervasive computing environment. For a pervasive health care application for diabetes patient, we've implemented a health care system, which is composed of three parts. Various sensors monitor both outer and inner environment of human such as temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and glycemic index, etc. These sensors form zigbee based sensor network. And medical information server accumulates sensing values and performs back-end processing. To simply transfer these sensing values to a medical team is a low level's medical service. So, we've designed a new service model based on back propagation neural network for more improved medical service. Our experiments show that a proposed healthcare system can give high level's medical service because it can recognize human's context more concretely.

The characteristics of elastic waves emanated from crack initiation in 6061 aluminum alloy subjected to fatigue loading are investigated through experiments. The objective of the study is to determine the differences in the properties of the signals generated from fatigue test and also to examine if the sources of the waves could be identified from the temporal and spectral characteristics of the acoustic emission (AE) waveforms. The signals are recorded using nonresonant, flat, broadband transducers attached to the surface of the alloy specimens. The time dependence and power spectra of the signals recorded during the tests were examined and classified according to their special features. Six distinct types of signals were observed. The waveforms and their power spectra were found to be dependent on the crack propagation stage and the type of fracture associated with the signals. The potential application of the approach in health monitoring of structural components using a network of surface mounted broadband sensors is discussed.
