In a prestressed concrete bridge, the magnitude of the prestress force (PF) decreases with time. This unexpected loss can cause failure of a bridge which makes prestress force identification (PFI) critical to evaluate bridge safety. However, it has been difficult to identify the PF non-destructively. Although some research has shown the feasibility of vibration based methods in PFI, the requirement of having a determinate exciting force in these methods hinders applications onto in-service bridges. Ideally, it will be efficient if the normal traffic could be treated as an excitation, but the load caused by vehicles is difficult to measure. Hence it prompts the need to investigate whether PF and moving load could be identified together. This paper presents a synergic identification method to determine PF and moving load applied on a simply supported prestressed concrete beam via the dynamic responses caused by this unknown moving load. This method consists of three parts: (i) the PF is transformed into an external pseudo-load localized in each beam element via virtual distortion method (VDM); (ii) then these pseudo-loads are identified simultaneously with the moving load via Duhamel Integral; (iii) the time consuming problem during the inversion of Duhamel Integral is overcome by the load-shape function (LSF). The method is examined against different cases of PFs, vehicle speeds and noise levels by means of simulations. Results show that this method attains a good degree of accuracy and efficiency, as well as robustness to noise.

As SOC (Social Overhead Capital) has been expanded, the highway road construction has been accelerated and city road system has been more complicated. So, long road tunnels have been increased and traffic flow rate also has been raised. Accordingly, the exhausting gas of vehicle cars seriously deteriorates the tunnel inside air quality and driving view. In order to improve tunnel inside air quality, we may need to introduce a compulsory ventilation system as well as natural ventilation mechanism. The natural ventilation mechanism is enough for short tunnels, meanwhile longer tunnels require a specific compulsory ventilation facility. Many foreign countries already have been devoting on development of effective tunnel ventilation system and especially, some European nations and Japan have already applied their developed tunnel ventilation system for longer road tunnels. More recently, as the quality of life improved, our concerns about safety of driving and better driving environment have been increased. In order to obtain clearer and longer driving view, we are more interested in EP tunnel ventilation system in order to remove floating contaminants and automobile exhaust gas. Evan though it's been a long time since many European countries and Japan applied more economical and environment-friendly tunnel ventilation system with their self-developed Electrostatic Precipitator, we are still dependant on imported system from foreign nations. Therefore, we need to develop our unique technical know-how for optimum design tools through validity investigation and continuous possibility examination, eventually in order to localize the tunnel ventilation system technology. In this project, we will manufacture test-run products to examine the performance of system in order to develop main parts of tunnel ventilation system such as electrostatic precipitator, high voltage power generator, water treatment system, etc.

스크램제트 엔진은 현재 차세대 추진기관의 핵심구성품으로 주목받고 있으며, 현재 미국, 프랑스, 일본, 중국, 인도 등 전세계적으로 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 항공우주연구원은 2007년 모델스크램제트 엔진 S1의 지상시험에 이어, 성능을 개선한 S2모델의 지상시험을 2009년 4월 수행하였다. 엔진시험모델은 설계마하수 6.7의 조건으로 제작되어 Off-design condition인 마하 7.7의 조건에서 지상시험이 수행되었다. 시험결과에서 본 시험모델은 흡입구 카울 안쪽의 충격파 중첩으로 인하여 유동의 박리현상이 발생하였으며, 이로 인하여 엔진 내부의 압력진동이 관찰되었다. 그러나, 연소기 내부에서 초음속 연소는 안정적으로 발생하였으며, 엔진의 격리부는 엔진 내 압력섭동이 흡입구로 전파되는 것을 차단하여 엔진불시동을 방지하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 항우연의 S2 모델은 다른 시험모델과의 성능비교에서 추력 및 비추력 성능이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

발사체 연소기용 산화제 개폐밸브는 비교적 간단한 개폐 작동을 통해, 액체산소를 연소기에 공급 또는 차단한다. 고압, 고유량, 극저온의 액체산소를 운용 유체로 사용할 뿐만 아니라, 설계유량 대비 밸브 차압 또한 낮아야 하는 상당히 까다로운 개발요구조건을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 개발 중인 연소기용 산화제 개폐밸브의 밸브 과도 응답과 같은 기본적인 밸브 특성과 함께, 밸브 성능을 좌우하는 핵심 부분이라고 할 수 있는 밸브 공압 구동부 및 포핏/시트부의 개발 내용을 소개하였다. 밸브의 과도 응답 특성 해석 결과가 시험 측정결과와 매우 잘 일치하는 것을 확인하였으며, 구동 공압부 및 포핏/시트부 구조해석을 통해 밸브 무빙파트의 접촉면 반발력과 마찰력을 정량적으로 평가하였다.

The high strength steel sheets has been widely used as the automobile parts to reduce the weight of a vehicle. The aim of this research is to develop the TRIP aided high strength low carbon steels using reverse transformation process. The 0.15C-4Mn and 0.15C-6.5Mn steel sheets were reversely transformed by slow heating to intercritical temperature region and air cooling to room temperature. The stability of retained austenite depends on the enrichment of carbon and manganese by diffusion during the reverse transformation. The amount of retained austenite formed after reversely transformed at $645^{\circ}C$ for 12 hrs. was about 46vol.% in hot rolled 0.lC-6.5Mn steel. The change in volume fraction of retained austenite with a holding temperature was consistent with the changes in elongation and the strength-ductility combination. The tendency of tensile strength to increase with increasing the holding temperature was due to the decrease of retained austenite after cooling from the higher temperature of $670 ^{\circ}C$. The maximum strength-ductility combination was about 4,250 kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$ㆍ% when the hot rolled 0.lC-6.5Mn steel was reversely transformed at $645^{\circ}C$ for 12 hrs.

This paper proposes a modeling technique which is able to not only reliably and easily represent the hysteretic characteristics but also analyze the dynamic stress of a taper leaf spring. The flexible multi-body dynamic model of the taper leaf spring is developed by interfacing the finite element model and computation model of the taper leaf spring. Rigid dummy parts are attached at the places where a finite element leaf model is in contact with an adjacent one in order to apply contact model. Friction is defined in the contact model to represent the hysteretic phenomenon of the taper leaf spring. The test of the taper leaf spring is conducted for the validation of the reliability of the flexible multi-body dynamic model of the taper leaf spring developed in this paper. The test is started at an unloaded state with the excitation amplitude of $1{\sim}2mm/sec$ and frequency of 132 mm. First, the simulation is conducted with the same condition as the test. Then, the simulations are conducted with various amplitudes in a loaded state. The hysteretic diagram from the test is compared with the ones from the simulation for the validation of the reliability of the model. The dynamic stress analysis of the taper leaf spring is also conducted with the developed flexible multi-body dynamic model under a dynamic loading condition.

There is an increasing interest in research to help overcome the energy crisis that has been focused on energy storage applications in various parts of power systems. Energy storage systems are good at enhancing the reliability or improving the efficiency of a power system by creating a time gap between the generation and the consumption of power. As a contribution to the various applications of storage devices, this paper describes a novel algorithm that determines the power and storage capacity of selected energy storage devices in order to improve upon railroad system efficiency. The algorithm is also demonstrated by means of simulation studies for the Korean railroad lines now in service. A part of this novel algorithm includes the DC railroad powerflow algorithm that considers the mobility of railroad vehicles, which is necessary because the electric railroad system has a distinct distribution system where the location and power of vehicles are not fixed values. In order to derive a more accurate powerflow result, this algorithm has been designed to consider the rail voltage as well as the feeder voltage for calculating the vehicle voltage. By applying the resultant control scheme, the charging or discharging within a specific voltage boundary, energy savings and a substation voltage stabilization using storage devices are achieved at the same time.

본 논문에서는 차량에 설치된 카메라를 활용하여 차선을 추출하고, 차량이탈을 검출하기 위한 방법에 대해서 논의한다. 하드웨어 기술의 발달로 지능형 자동차에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행됨에 따라서, 카메라를 활용한 차선인식 및 차량이탈검출과 관련하여 다양한 알고리즘들이 제시 되었다. 그러나 이들 연구에서는 영상에서 2개의 차선을 모두 찾아야 하기 때문에 처리속도 및 실제 운행환경에서의 다양한 여건으로 인하여 검출률이 떨어진다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 빠른 속도와 높은 검출률을 위해 단일차선을 추출하고, 중심점 분석을 통한 차선이탈검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 카메라의 기하학적 모델링을 통하여 차선이 존재하는 관심영역을 설정하고, 원본 이미지를 이등분한 후에 허프변환(Hough Transform)을 사용하여 한 차선의 일부를 찾아낸 후에, 일정 크기로 복원한다. 복원한 차선을 설정된 중심점과의 거리계산을 통하여 차선이탈을 판단한다. 실차실험을 통하여 제안한 알고리즘을 기존의 알고리즘과 비교 검증을 수행하였고, 이를 통하여 제안된 알고리즘이 빠르고 정확함을 보였다.

고속도로에서 화물차는 승용차에 비해 도로의 많은 부분을 점유한다. 이로 인해 도로의 용량은 상대적으로 감소하며, 국소적으로 주변 운전자에게 위협적인 요소로 작용한다. 화물차 사고는 일반적인 사고와 달리 사고 특성이 다르므로 분석 방법 또한 일반적인 사고와 다르게 적용해야 한다. 사고 분석 방법 중 사고예측모형은 특정 구간에 대한 사고건수를 예측하며 교통계획을 수립할 때 사고 예방을 위한 대책 수립과 도로의 위험성을 진단할 때 활용된다. 이에 본 연구는 고속도로의 화물차 간 사고 비율을 적용하여 사고예측모형에 투입될 수 있는 보정계수를 산출하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 연구를 위해 고속도로를 대상으로 사고 자료를 수집하였으며 2014~2016년까지 3개 년도의 교통량 및 사고 자료를 활용하였다. 연간 사고건수를 토대로 사고예측모형을 개발하였으며, 본 연구를 통해 화물차 간 사고 비율에 따른 사고예측모형을 비교함으로써 실질적인 고속도로 사고예측모형을 확인하고 그에 대한 대책을 제시하고자 한다.

It has been only a few years since drones have been introduced to Korea, and as the use of drones has increased in industrial sites as well as in hobby activities, accidents such as workers' body parts coming into contact with rotating propellers have been occurring since 2016. Industrial accident cases are being filed. In the case of a remote control vehicle, if you release the remote controller in the event of an abnormal situation, it stops in place and no further danger occurs but in case of drones flying over the sky is different. Sudden motor stops during flight, uncontrolled changes in flight posture, loss of radio waves, loose propeller, etc, numerous factors can lead to accidents due to unintentional movements. Therefore, drone operators need safety knowledge as well as high knowledge about drones. However, drones with a weight of less than 12 kg can fly without a pilot's certification, and therefore, a minimum accident prevention measure is required. 10 accidents approved as industrial accidents since 2016, 23 accidents surveyed by general drone operator, 40 accidents surveyed by the Korean Consumer Resources Unfortunately for the purpose of writing this paper, drones are a new species and do not have many parameters for analysis but my experience has shown that the type of disaster does not deviate significantly. In addition, there is no paper that analyzes drone related industrial accidents not only in Korea but also in other countries. However, even if you watch an overseas drone accident video through YouTube, it is not much different from the case that occurs in Korea. I hope that this study will be of little help to all the drone pilots as well as the work safety of industrial drones used in industrial sites.
