Structural acoustic modification method based on the structural mobility analysis is applied to reduce the structure-borne noise radiated from hard disk drive system. Sound intensity techniques and ODS(Operational Deflection Shape) techniques are also used in order to provide the structural acoustic information for the mobility modification. The sound intensity is for the acoustic visualization of the noise source locations, and the ODS is for the visualization of the vibration pattern and its dynamic characteristics of the noise sources. Using visualization information of sound and vibration, local structural input mobility is reduced in the frequency band of interest by designing asymmetrical wave-stringer structure in the wave-number domain as well as frequency domain. The overall sound pressure level is reduced by 4dB and its controlled sound power radiated from the disk drive is proved to under 2.8Bel in idle-spinning mode and 3.1 Bel in random-seeking mode, which are the lowest noise levels in the hard disk drive industry.

중수로 압력관이 주위를 둘러싸고 있는 칼란드리아관과 접촉될 경우, 압력관의 내면과 외면의 온도차로 인하여 수소(중수소)의 열 확산이 발생하며 결과적으로 압력관 외면에 수소화물 블리스터가 형성된다. 수소화물 블리스터는 음향학적으로 지르코늄 매질과 연속성을 가지기 때문에 일반적인 초음파 검사법으로는 탐지하기가 어렵다. 지르코늄 압력관 외면에 발생한 작은 수소화물 블리스터를 압력관 내면에서 탐지하기 위하여 초음파 모드 변환 및 속도비 방법을 개발하였다. 정적인 열확산 실험 장치를 사용하여 압력관 외면에 수소화물 블리스터를 성장시켰다. 종파 에코의 비행시간과 모드 변환된 반사 횡파 에코의 비행시간을 측정하여 종파 대 횡파 속도비를 계산하였으며 이를 속도비를 수정된 등고선 표현 방식으로 나타냈다. 초음파 속도비 방법이 일반적인 종파 비행시간방법보다 수소화물 블리스터 탐지 감도가 우수하며 블리스터 형상화 측면에서도 실제 형상과 유사하게 재현하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 중수로 압력관 초음파 검사사양과 동일하게 최적화 조건에서 수소화물 블리스터 탐지한계는 보수적인 관점에서 압력관 외면에 나타나는 크기를 기준으로 약 $500{\mu}m$로 평가되었다.

A 50 kW class rotating body type wave energy converter consisted of two floating bodies and a PTO (Power Takeoff) unit is studied. As an wave energy extractor, the body is designed to have a VLCO (Variable Liquid-Column Oscillator) having a liquid filled U-tube with air chambers. Owing to the oscillation of the liquid in the U-tube caused by the air spring effect of the air chambers, the amplitude of response of the VLCO becomes significantly amplified for a target wave period. The PTO converts the rotational moment introduced from the relative motion of the hinged bodies to an hydraulic power by means of a cylinder. A high pressure accumulator, hydraulic motor and a generator are equipped in the PTO to convert the hydraulic power to electric power. A control law for adjusting the oscillation period of the VLCO is proposed for the efficient operation of the VLCO with various wave conditions. It is found that the effect of the air spring has an important role to play in making the oscillation of the VLCO match with the ocean wave. In this way, the wave energy converter equipped with the VLCO provides the most effective mode for extracting energy from the ocean wave.

General condensers consist of many tubes supported by tube sheets and support plates to prevent the deflection of the condenser tubes. When a fluid at high pressure and temperature runs over the tubes for the purpose of transferring heat from one medium to another, the tubes vibrate and their surface comes into contact with the support plates. This vibration causes damage to the tubes, such as cracks and wear. We propose an ultrasonic guided wave technique to detect the above problems in the support plate region. In the proposed method, the ultrasonic guided wave mode, L(0,1), is excited using an internal transducer probe from a single position at the end of the tube. In this paper, we present a preliminary experimental verification using a super stainless tube and show that the defects can be discriminated from the support signals in the support region.

Sea waves induce significant pressures on coastal surfaces, especially on rocky vertical cliffs or breakwater structures (Peregrine 2003). In the present work, this hydrodynamic pressure is considered as the excitation acting on a piezoelectric material sheet, installed on a vertical cliff, and connected to an external electric circuit (on land). The whole hydro/piezo/electric system is modeled in the context of linear wave theory. The piezoelectric elements are assumed to be small plates, possibly of stack configuration, under a specific wiring. They are connected with an external circuit, modeled by a complex impedance, as usually happens in preliminary studies (Liang and Liao 2011). The piezoelectric elements are subjected to thickness-mode vibrations under the influence of incident harmonic water waves. Full, kinematic and dynamic, coupling is implemented along the water-solid interface, using propagation and evanescent modes (Athanassoulis and Belibassakis 1999). For most energetically interesting conditions the long-wave theory is valid, making the effect of evanescent modes negligible, and permitting us to calculate a closed-form solution for the efficiency of the energy harvesting system. It is found that the efficiency is dependent on two dimensionless hydro/piezo/electric parameters, and may become significant (as high as 30 - 50%) for appropriate combinations of parameter values, which, however, corresponds to exotically flexible piezoelectric materials. The existence or the possibility of constructing such kind of materials formulates a question to material scientists.

In recent years, various studies have been conducted on oscillating-water-column-type wave energy converters (OWC-WECs) with multiple chambers with the objective of efficiently utilizing the limited space of offshore/onshore structures. In this study, a numerical investigation based on a numerical wave tank was conducted on single, dual, and triple OWC chambers to examine the hydrodynamic performances and the energy conversion characteristics of the multiple water columns. The boundary value problem with the Laplace equation was solved by using a numerical wave tank based on a finite element method. The validity of the current numerical method was confirmed by comparing it with the measured data in the previous experimental research. We undertook a series of numerical simulations and observed that the water column motion of sloshing mode in a single chamber can be changed into the piston motion of different phases in multiple OWC chambers. Therefore, the piston motion in the multiple chambers can generate considerable airflow at a specific resonant frequency. In addition, the division of the OWC chamber results in a reduction of the time-dependent variability of the final output power from the device. As a result, the application of the multiple chambers leads to an increase of the energy conversion performance as well as a decrease of the variability of the wave energy converter.

암석 시료가 파괴될 때에 발생되는 AE신호는 미세한 균열 발생시의 갑작스런 변형에너지 해바에 기인한다. 압전 압력형 탐촉자와 다채널 기록장치를 이용하여 AE 신호파를 기록하여 분석하므로 외적인 하중조건과 그에 따른 미세균열의 특징에 대하여 연구하였다. 연구결과 미세균열의 체적은 수 $\mu\textrm{m}^3$ 내지 $150,000\mu\textrm{m}^3$로 산출되어서 그 크기가 넓은 범위로 분포하였고 인장형 미세균열이 대체적으로 전단형 보다 큰 체적을 보였다. 또한, 균열원에서의 에너지 강도는 모드 I 하중조건하에서 발생하는 AE 신호가 혼합모드 조건하에서 발생한 신호보다 약 3배정도 크게 나타났으나,시료가 파괴되는 동안 기록된 AE 신호의 숫자는 반대로 모드 I의 경우가 혼합모드의 25%에 불과하였다. 이러한 사실은 같은 크기의 파괴면을 형성하는데 필요한 에너지 요구량이 대체적으로 동일함을 암시하는 것으로 보인다.

EGR system has been widely used to reduce NOx emission in light duty diesel engines, but its application to heavy duty diesel engine is not common yet. In this study, simulation model for EURO-3 engine was developed using commercial code WAVE and then verified by comparison with experimental results in performance and emission. Possibility to meet EURO-4 regulation using modified EURO-3 engine with LPL EGR system was studied. Each components of the engine was modeled using CATIA and WaveMesher. The engine test mode was ESC 13 and injection timing and quantity were changed to compensate engine performances, because applying EGR causes power reduction. As a results of the simulation, it was found that EURO-4 NOx regulation could be achieved by applying LPL EGR system to current EURO-3 engine even with some BSFC deterioration.

A bonded plate or a coated part can be debonded by external impact or thermal expansion. To analyse adhesive strength, the blister test is generally adopted. In this paper, a blister test is modelled theoretically and then the stability and bifurcation of the blister are studied under several different cases. The blister is simplified to consist of a pure bending plate attached elastically to the rigid substrate. Expression of the energy release rate is obtained as a form of an explicit function for a circular-type blister or tunnel-type blister grown by controlling the internal pressure or internal volume. Stability and bifurcation are also studied in the frame of the quasi-static evolution. The study shows that the circular- type blister propagates with the first mode of bifurcation and that the tunnel-type blister propagates with a regular wave. It is proved that the waves have the same form on two side lines of the tunnel and that the wave length can be obtained. When the internal pressure is controlled, the blister is unstable, but when the internal volume is controlled, it is stable.
