The objective of this study is to analyze the static and dynamic characteristics of automotive rubber components by computer simulation. Bush / rectangular type engine mounts and wind shield weather strip are analyzed by using the commercial code ABAQUS and the results are verified by experiments. Large deformation static response is analyzed in order to get the information about the deformation pattern and static stiffness of engine mounts, and about the seperation force of wind shield weather strip from body. The isothermal steady-state dynamic response of components which have been subjected to an initial static pre-load is analyzed for the dynamic stiffness of engine mount rubber components. There are good agreements between simulation and experiments. So it is possible to apply the computer simulation to the design of automotive rubber components.

Arc pressure is one of important factors in understanding physical arc phenomena. Especially it affects on the penetration, size and shape of TIG welding. Some researches were reported on the effect of arc pressure in low and middle current region. But there are not any research in high current region. The purpose of this study is to investigate the arc pressure distribution with mixing ratio of shield gas such as Ar and He gases. A Cu block with water cooling was specifically designed and used as an anode electrode in order to measure the arc pressure in high current region. Then, the arc pressure distribution was measured with change in welding current and mixing ratio of shield gases. The arc force was obtained by numerically integrating the measured results. As the results, it was shown that the arc pressure was concentrated at the central part of the arc in middle and high current regions when a pure Ar gas was used. In case of Ar + He mixing gas, the arc pressure was much lower than that of pure Ar gas. In addition, it was widely distributed to radial direction.

An 1 lbf of NASA standard monopropellant thruster, MRE-1, is used for KOMPSAT (Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) which is launched in 2006 and provides reliable and cost-effective means for attitude and maneuvering control system. The monopropellant thruster obtains required thrust by thermal decomposition process of propellant through catalyst bed. During firing, the decomposition plays a role of a heat source that may occur an excessive radiation heat transfer to peripheral structures and electronics in relatively low temperature condition.Therefore, the radiation heat shield is needed to prevent the critical radiative heat exchange between thruster and satellite during firing. This paper summarizes an overall development process of radiation heat shield from the design engineering up to the manufacturing.

This paper presents the fundamental study on drag force of shield TBM cutter bit by scaled model test. Several theoretical analyses of the drag force of cutter bit have been studied. However, there are still some difference between the theoretical approaches and actual drag bit capacity. In order to study the drag forces of shield TBM cutter bit, the scaled model tests are carried out and analyzed. The results obtained from scaled model tests are compared with the existing theoretical equations. It is highly expected that the results of this study will be very essentially useful to design and develope the TBM cutterhead.

In this study, we perform the weight reduction and miniaturization of the shielding element that is applied for gamma-ray detectors for imaging of gamma-ray source. Through previous studies, we implemented a lead-based shielding element that represents the shielding effectiveness and performance of commercially available gamma-ray imaging apparatus similar to the shielding body. In this paper, we designed a tungsten-based shield for weight reduction and miniaturization than lead-based shield. We performed the MCNP simulation for shield design and then we obtained the results of reducing the weight of the 17% and 51% of the volume.

In this thesis, a strip layout drawing of LCD S/C (shield case) was prepared. In the press die, strip layout drawing is a major factor that decides the mass production of a product. The 3D CAD/CAM system was applied for the easy correction of the interference factor with other parts to be mounted. The material use ratio was enhanced to 60.17% by optimizing the blank layout and strip layout in double width array. Furthermore, the flatness of the product was made to fit the requirements by adding the bidding process intensively on the notching part where the occurrence of the change in shape is expected owing to the thin material. For the 3D CAD/CAM software, Unigraphics NX3.0 was used. The strip layout drawing was prepared in 12 processes.

In deep mixed rock strata, a double shield TBM (DS-TBM) is easy to be entrapped by a large force during tunneling. In order to reduce the probability of the entrapment, we need to investigate a favorable driving direction, either driving with or against dip, which mainly associates with the angle between the tunneling axis and strike, ${\theta}$, as well as the dip angle of rock strata, ${\alpha}$. We, therefore, establish a 3DEC model to show the changes of displacements and contact forces in mixed rock strata through LDP (longitudinal displacement profile) and LFP (longitudinal contact force profile) curves at four characteristic points on the surrounding rock. This is followed by a series of numerical models to investigate the favorable driving direction. The computational results indicate driving with dip is the favorable tunneling direction to reduce the probability of DS-TBM entrapment, irrespective of ${\theta}$ and ${\alpha}$, which is not in full agreement with the guidelines proposed in RMR. From the favorable driving direction (i.e., driving with dip), the smallest contact force is found when ${\theta}$ is equal to $90^{\circ}$. The present study is therefore beneficial for route selection and construction design in TBM tunneling.

The radiator of the data storage and handling units onboard the earth observation satellite is a groove-type radiator covered with a shield because of the periodic high heat dissipation and design characteristics of arrangement and mountability of the unit. The effect of the groove-type radiator and that of the shield versus plane radiator were verified through the thermal vacuum test. Through the test result, the temperatures of the radiator and the heat exchange due to the view factor were analyzed by using the analytical method. Conclusively the thermal performance of the shield dissipation plate was verified.

Korea's TRIGA Mark-Ⅱ reactor was primarily designed in 1950's and was constructed in 1962 for 100 kw thermal output, but it was upgraded to 250 kw in July 1969. Nevertheless, the shield remains unchanged, although the radiation level has increased. The result of computation On this paper shows that, with the existing shield, it is safe for the fast neutrons even after the power upgrading by 2.5 times. It is, however, somewhat dangerous for the gamma rays which are comprised of primary and secondary. For the analysis of the reactor shielding design, an attempt is made for the computation toward the horizontal direction. From theoretical point of view, it can be concluded that some layer of additional shield must be reinforced to the existing concrete in order to be radiologically safe in the reactor hall.

The article presents a parametric study on geometrical design optimization for coupling the joint between a large exhaust air chimney and electromagnetic pulse (EMP) shield for gas turbine electricity generator. We conducted computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations on hydraulic diameters of waveguide below cutoff(WBC) ranges 800mm~1025mm, the connection distance ranges 150~450mm, and exhaust gas flow velocities at 15, 20, and 25m/s. The results show that the diameter of main chimney, connection distance, and exhaust gas velocity had impacts on flow stream at the EMP shield. To provide a fully developed stream line at three different flow velocity cases, the WBC diameter and distance of connection should be larger than 1050mm and longer than 300mm, respectively.
