This study aimed to assess the feasibility on the wide and long 9%Ni steel plate for use in the LNG storage inner tank shell. First, 5-m-wide and 15-m-long 9%Ni steel plates were test manufactured from a steel mill and specimens taken from the plates were tested for strength, toughness, and flatness to verify their performance based on international standards and design specifications. Second, plates with a thickness of 10 mm and 25 mm, a width of 4.8~5.0 m, and a length of 15 m were test fabricated by subjecting to pretreatment, beveling, and roll bending resulting in a final width of 4.5~4.8 m and a length of 14.8m with fabrication errors identical to conventional plates. Third, welded specimens obtained via shield metal arc welding used for vertical welding of inner tank shell and submerged arc welding used for horizontal welding were also tested for strength, toughness and ductility. Fourth, verification of shell plate material and fabrication was followed by test erection using two 25-mm-thick, 4.5-m-wide and 14.8-m-long 9%Ni steel plates. No undesirable welding failure or deformation was found. Finally, parametric design using wide and long 9%Ni steel plates was carried out, and a simplified design method to determine the plate thickness along the shell height was proposed. The cost analysis based on the parametric design resulted in about 2% increase of steel weight; however, the construction cost was reduced about 6% due to large reduction in welding work.

최근에는 경량화 문제에 대한 합리적인 솔루션을 제공하고 유용한 개념설계를 제공할 수 있는 다중 재료 구조 위상최적화가 더욱 중요해지고 있다. 기존의 MMTO(Multi-Material Topology Optimization)의 경우 후보 물질의 수가 증가할수록 설계변수의 수도 증가하고, 결과적으로 계산 시간이 크게 증가한다. 따라서 PSM(Phase Section Method)과 같은 단일 설계변수를 갖는 MMTO가 제안되었다. 본 연구는 조성비가 면적이나 부피비를 나타내지 못하고, 설계변수가 목표치에 충분히 집중되지 않고, 특정 재료가 요구량보다 적게 생성되는 PSM의 세 가지 주요 제한점을 고려하여 이를 개선하는데 중점을 둔다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 재정의된 조성비와 더 나은 수렴을 위한 조정된 매개변수를 제안한다. 제안된 수정 사항의 유효성을 2차원 및 3차원 수치 예제를 통해 검증한다.

The hydroforming technology has been spreaded dramatically in automotive industry last 10 years. Itmay cause many advantages to automotive applications in terms of better structural integrity of the parts, lower cost from fewer part count, material saving, weight reduction, lower springback, improved strength and durability and design flexibility. In this study, the whole process of rear sub-frame parts development by tube hydroforming using steel material having tensile strength of 440MPa grade is presented. At the part design stage, it requires feasibility study and process design aided by CAE (Computer Aided Design) to confirm hydroformability in details. Effects of parameters such as internal pressure, axial feeding and geometry shape in automotive rear sub-frame by hydroforming process were carefully investigated. Overall possibility of hydroformable sub-frame parts could be examined by cross sectional analyses. Moreover, it is essential to ensure the formability of tube material on every forming step such as pre-bending, preforming and hydroforming. In addition, all the components of prototyping tool are designed and interference with press is examined from the point of geometry and thinning.

최근에 오스테나이트와 페라이트의 조직을 갖는 듀플렉스계 스테인리스강이 개발되었고 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강에 비해 고강도, 응력부식균열에 대한 고내식성과 재료비절감으로 다양한 산업분야에서 사용량이 증가되고 있다. 그러나, 현재 스테인리스강은 한국 건축구조기준에 구조용재료로 지정되어 있지 않고 구조설계기준도 마련되어 있지 않는 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 2행 1열 듀플렉스계 스테인리스강(STS329FLD) 볼트접합부에 대한 구조적 성능을 조사하기 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 주요변수는 전단접합형태(일면전단과 이면전단)과 하중방향 연단거리이다. 종국파단형태는 전형적인 블록전단파단, 인장파단과 면외변형이 관찰되었다. 일면전단 접합부에서 면외변형발생으로 최대 20%까지 내력저하가 발생되었다. 실험최대내력은 현행설계기준 AISC/AISI/KBC, EC3와 AIJ 및 기존연구자에 의한 제안된 식에 의한 예측내력과 비교하였다. 면외변형이 발생하지 않은 접합부에 대해서 실제 전단파단단면을 고려한 Clement & The의 식에 의한 예측내력이 실험내력에 가장 근접했고 면외변형을 동반한 접합부에 대해서는 면외변형을 고려해 제안한 Kim & Lim식에 의해서 과대평가하는 것으로 나타났다.

시스템 요구 조건에 따른 다양한 돔 형상 설계를 위하여 외부 하중이 고려된 돔 형상 설계 식이 제시되었고, 동일 원통부와 보스 오프닝을 가지면서 다른 돔 형상을 갖는 압력 용기의 성능(파열압력*내부용적/복합재무게) 변화를 유한요소해석을 통하여 평가하였다. 해석 결과는 돔 형상이 낮아질수록 파열 압력이 저하되어 압력 용기 성능이 저하됨을 나타내었다. 특히 원통부 반경과 보스 오프닝간의 비를 나타내는 보스 오프닝 크기 비율(${\rho}\;o$)이 큰 경우는 돔 형상이 낮아짐에 따라 복합재 무게 증가율이 크게 나타남으로서 압력 용기 성능 저하의 원인이 되었고, 파열 압력 상승을 위하여 돔 부위에 추가적인 보강설계가 요구되었다. 예를 들어 ${\rho}\;o=0.35$ 이하의 돔인 경우, 돔 형상 변화가 크지 않음으로서 돔 형상 변화에 따른 압력 용기 성능 변화도 크지 않은 것으로 나타난 반면, ${\rho}\;o=0.54$ 이상의 압력 용기인 경우 낮은 돔으로 변화됨에 따라 파열 압력 감소와 복합재 무게 증가로 압력 용기 성능 저하가 비교적 크게 나타나서 압력 용기 내부 용적 증가나 스커트와 돔간의 공간 확보가 우선인 설계 조건을 제외하고는 낮은 돔 형상 설계가 바람직하지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

Two experiments using growing and finishing pigs (Landrace$\times$Duroc$\times$Yorkshire) were conducted to determine the effects of different levels of vitamins and trace minerals (VTM) on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, carcass characteristics and meat quality of growing-finishing pigs, and to evaluate the suitability of vitamin-mineral levels commonly used in the swine industry in Korea. A total of 120 three crossbred (Landrace$\times$Duroc$\times$Yorkshire) growing (Experiment I: 20.90 0.44 kg average initial body weight) and finishing (Experiment II: 53.55 0.97 kg average initial body weight) were used in 6 and 9 weeks feeding trials, respectively. Pigs were allotted on the basis of sex and weight to 5 treatments with 6 replications per treatment with 4 pigs per pen in a completely randomized block design. Treatments were: 1) control, 2) fat soluble vitamin 200% vs. control, 3) water soluble vitamin 200% vs. control, 4) trace mineral 50% vs. control, 5) trace mineral 200% vs. control. In experiment I, during the overall experimental period (0 to 6 weeks, 21 to 54 kg body weight), ADG of the 200% trace mineral supplemented group was significantly higher than that of the 50% trace mineral supplemented group. There were no significant differences among other the treatments. Digestibility of crude protein was lowest in mineral 50% supplemented group (p<0.05). Calcium digestibility was significantly higher in the 200% fat soluble vitamin supplemented group than in the other treatments (p<0.05). In experiment II, during the overall experimental period (0 to 9 weeks, 54 to 106 kg body weight), growth performance was not significantly affected by dietary vitamin and trace mineral levels. However, increasing level of water soluble vitamins at the level of 200% compared to control had a tendency to improve the overall growth performance. Overall carcass characteristics except for carcass length did not differ among pigs fed the dietary treatments. Loin eye area, pH, drip loss and shear force of meat were not affected by dietary vitamin and trace mineral levels. There was a trend for less fat content (%) in pork when the level of vitamin and trace mineral was increased, but the difference was not significant. Flavor score was the lowest in control and highest in the 200% fat soluble vitamin supplemented group (p<0.05). Juiciness of muscle was lower in the 200% fat soluble vitamin supplemented group than other dietary treatments, except for trace mineral 50% supplemented group (p<0.05). Based on these results, it is suggested that "typical" commercial levels of vitamin and trace minerals used by feed companies in Korea are sufficient to meet requirement for the maximum growth of growing-finishing pigs. Our results suggests that a reduction in trace mineral levels in commercial diets could be considered to reduce feed cost and nutrient excretion with economic and environmental benefits.

Three experiments were conducted to determine the feed processing method best suited for early and conventionallyweaned pigs, and to investigate the effects of different extrusion temperatures on ileal digestibility of amino acids in diets containing different protein sources. In exp.1, a total of 108 pigs (Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire${\times}$Duroc; 24 d of age and 7.60 kg average body weight) were alloted on the basis of sex, weight and ancestry to three treatments in a randomized complete block design. Feed processing methods used were mash (M), simple pellet (SP), and expanded pellet (EP). In exp. 2, a total of 96 pigs (Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire${\times}$Duroc; 14 d of age) were allotted on the basis of sex, weight, and ancestry to three treatments in a randomized complete block design. Diets were mash (M), expanded pellet (EP), and expanded pellet crumble (EPC). In exp. 3, a study was designed to investigate the effect of different extrusion temperatures (100, 120, and $140^{\circ}C$) over the control (untreated) on the ileal digestibility of amino acids in diets containing protein sources such as spray-dried plasma protein (SDPP), whey protein concentrate (WPC), and fish meal (FM). Results in exp.1 showed that ADG, ADFI and the F/G ratio of pigs fed the SP diet were improved (p<0.05) compared with those fed the M or the EP diets, but the digestibility of nutrients was not different (p>0.05) among the treatments. In exp. 2, pigs fed expanded pellet treatments (EP or EPC) had a significantly improved (p<0.05) F/G ratio compared to the pigs fed the M diet which was primarily attributed to the significant reduction (p<0.05) in ADFI, but the overall growth rate of pigs fed expanded pellet diets was not improved. In exp. 3, there was a significant interaction effect (p<0.05) between the extrusion temperature and protein source on the ileal digestibility of amino acids. With an extrusion temperature of $100^{\circ}C$, the ileal digestibility of Lys, Val, Gly and Ser was significantly lower in the diet containing WPC compared to the diet containing SDPP. Increasing the temperature to $120^{\circ}C$ led to significant differences (p<0.05) in the digestibility of Thr and Tyr between diets containing WPC and SDPP. Regardless of extrusion temperatures, the weaned pigs' diet containing either SDPP or FM had significantly higher Lys, Phe, Thr, Val, and Gly digestibility relative to the WPC diet. Results of the present study suggest that simple pelleting of diets containing protein sources such as whey protein concentrate, spray-dried plasma protein and fish meal would be better than the extruded or expanded pellet diets. Extruder or expander processing of weaned pigs' feed could reduce palatability and ileal digestibility of several amino acids and therefore may be responsible for a negative growth response in weaned pigs.

본 논문에서는 중수로(CANDU Reactor)에서 배출되는 고준위폐기물을 지하 500m의 화강암 암반의 처분장에 장기간(약 10,000년 동안) 처분하기 위하여 여러 구조적 안전성 평가 수행을 통하여 개발된 처분용기에 대하여 구조적 안전성 평가 보완 해석을 수행하였다. 기존에 설계된 중수로용 처분용기 모델은 내부에 33개의 고준위 폐기물 다발을 직경 122cm의 원통형 처분용기가 지탱하는 구조물로 구조적 안전성은 문제가 없으나 너무 무거운 단점이 지적되었다. 따라서 구조적 안전성을 유지하면서 좀 더 경량화 된 처분용기모델을 개발하는 것이 요구된다. 중수로 처분용기모델을 경량화하는 방법에는 두 가지가 있는데, 첫째는 외력조건 및 안전계수 등에 대한 조건을 완화하는 방법이고, 둘째는 중수로 처분용기내의 고준위폐기물다발의 개수를 줄여 구조물 단면 형상을 최적화시키는 방법이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 처분용기 개발 시 적용된 외력조건 등에 대한 조건들을 완화하여 설계 완성된 기존의 처분용기에 대하여 외력 조건 및 용기의 재원(직경 등) 들을 변화시키면서 구조해석을 재수행하고, 동시에 기존 33개의 고준위폐기물 다발의 개수를 줄여서 용기의 여러 재원에 대하여 구조해석을 수행하여 최적의 경량화된 단면형상을 도출하였다. 이를 바탕으로 외력 조건에 따른 처분용기의 재원 등을 재산출하였다. 보완 해석결과 기존의 122cm의 처분용기의 직경을 줄여 경량화시킬 수 있음이 확인되었다.

In electric agricultural machine the gearbox is used to increase torque and lower the output speed of the motor shaft. The gearbox consists of several shafts, helical gears and spur gears works in series. Optimization plays an important role in gear design as reducing the weight or volume of a gear set will increase its service life and improve the bearing capacity. In this paper the basic design parameters for gear like shaft diameter and face width are considered as the input variables. The bending stress and material volume is considered as the objective function. ANSYS was used to investigate the bending stress when the variable was changed. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to obtain the mathematical model of the system based on the bending stress behaviour. The ANN was used since the output system is nonlinear. The Genetic Algorithm (GA)　technique of optimization is used to obtain the optimized values of shaft diameter and face width on the pinion based on the ANN mathematical model and the results are compared as that obtained using the traditional method. The ANN and GA were performed using MATLAB. The simulation results were shown that the proposed algorithm was successfully calculated the value of shaft diameter and face width to obtain the minimal bending stress and material volume of the gearbox.

In this task, the tool dynamometer design and manufacture, and the Ansys S/W structural analysis program for tool attachment that satisfies the cutting force measurement requirements of the tool dynamometer system are used to determine the cutting force generated by metal cutting using 3-axis static structural analysis and the LabVIEW system. The cutting power in a cutting process using a milling tool for processing metals provides useful information for understanding the processing, optimization, tool status monitoring, and tool design. Thus, various methods of measuring cutting power have been proposed. The device consists of a strain-gauge-based sensor fitted to a new design force sensing element, which is then placed in a force reduction. The force-sensing element is designed as a symmetrical cross beam with four arms of a rectangular parallel line. Furthermore, data duplication is eliminated by the appropriate setting the strain gauge attachment position and the construction of a suitable Wheatstone full-bridge circuit. This device is intended for use with rotating spindles such as milling tools. Verification and machining tests were performed to determine the static and dynamic characteristics of the tool dynamometer. The verification tests were performed by analyzing the difference between strain data measured by weight and that derived by theoretical calculations. Processing test was performed by attaching a tool dynamometer to the MCT to analyze data generated by the measuring equipment during machining. To maintain high productivity and precision, the system monitors and suppresses process disturbances such as chatter vibration, imbalances, overload, collision, forced vibration due to tool failure, and excessive tool wear; additionally, a tool dynamometer with a high signal-to-noise ratio is provided.
