In this study, the crashworthiness of KHST is evaluated by analysing a nonlinear spring/bar-damper-mass model using 1 dimensional collision dynamics. The numerical results show that KHST can easily absorb kinetic energy at lower impact force and acceleration in heavy collisions, when compared with KTX. Also, in a light collision like a traint-to-train accident at speed under 8 kph, the carbody and components of KHST can be protected without any damage except a energy absorbing tube to be replaced easily. However, KTX may be much damaged in the light collision because there is no energy absorbing tube. In conclusion, the crashworthy performance of KHST has been much improved than that of KTX, although there remains something to be improved for a better performance.

Compression waves propagating in a high speed railway tunnel impose large pressure fluctuations on the train body or tunnel structures. The pressure fluctuations can cause ear discomfort for the passengers and increase the aerodynamic resistance of trains. As a fundamental research to resolve the pressure wave phenomenon in the tunnel, a steady theory of Chester-Chisnell- Whitham was applied to a simple shock tube with a sudden cross-sectional area reduction to model trains inside the tunnel. The results of the present theoretical analysis were compared with the experiments of the shock tube. The results show that the reflected compression wave from the model becomes stronger as the strength of incident compression wave and the blockage ratio increase. However, the compression wave passing through the model is not strongly dependent on the blockage ratio. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experiments.

A new approach has been adopted to remove the hot particulates from nuclear facilities, KAERI, South Korea, by using the new compact cyclone train, made of steel ness steel, with optional vortex finder length. Flow rate results showed a dramatic change in removal efficiency, performance was changed with the change of exit tube length. The 15 m/s flow rate was found suitable one for new equipment with the 49 mm optimum exit tube length for 76 mm cyclone body diameter. Results shows the removal efficiency for $1\;{\mu}m$ was more than $65\%$ and for $10\;{\mu}m$ was seen ${\~}97\%$. Over 15 m/s flow rate, was not shown much different in removal efficiency. The removal efficiency increased with the flow rate, and pressure drop. Cut size diameter decrease with the inlet flow rate. Cut size diameter found lowest with 49 mm exit tube length and 15 m/s flow rate. For filters the performance decreased with the inlet velocity increased.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to develop and train caregivers in tracheostomy tube care using a self-management program to assist patients with an 'at home' tracheostomy procedure. Caregivers' self-efficacy and knowledge of tracheostomy management before and after the training was also identified. Methods: Research participants were the main caregivers for patients with tracheostomies who were affiliated with a 'Home Healthcare Center'. Training and observation were done at 'A Hospital' and 'G Hospital' both affiliated with 'K University' in Seoul. Data were collected from May 3, 2010 to January 25, 2011 and analyzed using Wilcoxon signed rank test with SPSS program version 12.0. Results: Significant differences were found for the pre and post evaluation of the 'self-management program' for the implementation of tracheostomy care. The development and implementation of the 'self-management program' improved the main caregivers' knowledge of tracheostomy tube management (Z=-3.599, p<.001). Conclusion: Results show that this program has identified an effective nursing intervention for promoting the caregivers' knowledge of tracheostomy care and self-efficacy. We recommend that further research should be done to test primary caregivers' maintenance of knowledge and self-efficacy in tracheostomy tube management and identify factors affecting knowledge and self-efficacy in the care of these patients.

A new control method to alleviate the impulsive noise at the exit of high-speed railway tunnel was applied to the compression wave at the entrance of the tunnel. This method uses the interaction phenomenon of unsteady expansion wave and unsteady compression wave. Unsteady expansion wave was assumed to be made instantaneously by the simple theory of shock tube. Total Variation Diminishing method was employed to solve the axisymmetric unsteady compressible flow field with a specified compression wave. Numerical results show that the maximum pressure gradient of the propagating compression wave decreases with increase of the wave length of the unsteady expansion wave. It is found that the impulsive noise reduction can be obtained when the unsteady expansion wave with a large wave length is emitted just before the train enters the tunnel. The present results give the possibility to reduce the impulsive noise at the exit of tunnel.

This study proposes a new and highly-accurate artificial intelligence model, namely ANN-IP, which combines an interior-point (IP) algorithm and artificial neural network (ANN), to improve the axial compression capacity prediction of elliptical concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns. For this purpose, 145 tests of elliptical CFST columns extracted from the literature are used to develop the ANN-IP model. In this regard, axial compression capacity is considered as a function of the column length, the major axis diameter, the minor axis diameter, the thickness of the steel tube, the yield strength of the steel tube, and the compressive strength of concrete. The performance of the ANN-IP model is compared with the ANN-LM model, which uses the robust Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm to train the ANN model. The comparative results show that the ANN-IP model obtains more magnificent precision (R² = 0.983, RMSE = 59.963 kN, a20 - index = 0.979) than the ANN-LM model (R² = 0.938, RMSE = 116.634 kN, a20 - index = 0.890). Finally, a new Graphical User Interface (GUI) tool is developed to use the ANN-IP model for the practical design. In conclusion, this study reveals that the proposed ANN-IP model can properly predict the axial compression capacity of elliptical CFST columns and eliminate the need for conducting costly experiments to some extent.

This study concerns the distributions of flow in an air conditioning duct used for a marine and oil drilling ship. From the results of carrying out flow analysis and structural analysis of a ventilation duct applied to a marine structure, the following conclusion could be gained. The pressure tended to increase as the flow velocity at the inlet increased and the pressure at the inlet increased. It was recognized that the pressure decreased due to the influence of a corrugated tube when it entered and exited from the duct. As a result of structural analysis, a higher train was generated at the corrugated tube compared with the duct. In addition, in the case of the internal pressure of 0.7MPa, which was the designed load, it was found that there was almost no influence as it was within 0.1mm.

공기 저항이 적은 아진공 상태의 튜브 안을 주행함으로써 초고속주행이 가능한 캡슐트레인은 부상 공극이 커서 인프라 건설 비용 절감에 유리한 초전도 유도 반발식 부상을 채택하고 있다. 초전도 유도 반발식 부상은 부상 공극을 크게 할 수 있고, 별도의 공극 제어가 필요 없는 장점이 있는 반면, 공극 변동량이 크고 부상력에 댐핑 특성이 작기 때문에 차량의 주행 안정성 및 승차감이 악화 될 수 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해서는 차량의 주행 동특성에 기반한 주행안정화장치를 설계하고 적용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 캡슐트레인의 동특성을 모사하고 주행안정화장치의 성능을 사전에 검토할 수 있는 1/10 스케일의 축소형 시험장치를 개발하였다. 시험장치는 대차의 모션을 구현할 수 있는 6 자유도 스튜어트 플랫폼, 주행안정화장치가 적용된 2차 현가장치 및 차체로 구성되어 있다. Jaschinski가 제안한 동특성 상사 법칙에 따라 축소 시험장치를 제작하였고, 가이드웨이 불규칙도와 부상 강성이 반영된 대차 모션 구현 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 제작된 시험장치를 이용한 실험을 통해 얻어진 결과와 수치해석 결과와의 비교를 통해 시험장치의 성능을 검토하였다.

본 논문은 국내 고속형 화물열차에 적용되는 P4a 분배밸브를 갖는 화물열차의 장대 편성시 제동특성에 관한 것이다. 제동신호가 열차의 끝단까지 연결된 제동관을 통해 공기압력으로 전달되는 화차의 제동은 열차 길이와 사용된 밸브 등에 따라 영향을 받기 때문에 실험적 방법으로 확인한다. 장대화물 열차의 제동 특성은 평상시 운영의 약 2배인 50량으로 구성한 화물열차의 비상제동과 상용제동의 시험을 이용하였다. 1, 10, 20, 30, 50번째 차량에서 제동 실린더 압력이 측정되었다. 열차의 길이가 길어질수록 후방의 차량은 제동이 늦게 체결되는 제동지연 현상을 확인하였으며 특히 비상제동시 차량간 충격이 클 것을 예상할 수 있었다. 제한된 시험의 결과를 보완하고 향후 제동거리 계산을 위해 열차를 구성하는 모든 차량에서의 제동 압력을 예측할 필요가 있다. 제동시 각 차량에서의 압력은 계산시간의 단축과 신뢰성 있는 정보를 제공하는 것으로 알려진 선형보간, 단계형, 지수함수형의 경험적 모델들을 이용하여 예측하였다. 경험적 모델들의 예측결과는 실측한 결과들과 비교하였으며 지수함수형 모델이 비교적 정확하게 예측하고 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 장대화물열차의 안전한 운용에 기여하고 화물열차의 제동거리 예측과 제동시 차량간 충격량 계산 등에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.
