Eco-friendly material applied to building would be one of the materials which is must developed for global environmental conservation and reduction of carbon dioxide. For development of eco-friendly material, a cellulose absorber has been developed with waste paper through adjustment of various mix proportions. The developed cellulose absorber has been tested for its acoustic properties such as absorption coefficient and dynamic stiffness. The absorption coefficient was evaluated by developing six samples and using impedance tube and reverberation chamber. As a result of the evaluation, 0.64(NRC) was secured in absorption coefficient and 4.7 $MN/m^3$ was indicated in dynamic stiffness. Also, for practical use of developed absorbers as inner heartwood in drywall, comparison test of sound reduction index was performed with existing glass wool absorbers and constructed drywall of gypsum board. The results have shown 55 dB(Rw) of sound reduction index in glass-wool wall and 46 dB(Rw) in cellulose.

전파흡수체의 전자파산란 문제는 전송선로 근사방법과 유효매질 이론을 적용하여 매우 간단하게 표현할 수 있다. 이러한 방법은 전자장 수치해석 방법이 엄청난 계산이 필요한 것에 비해 매우 직관적이고, 간단하므로 전파흡수체 설계에 널리 사용되어져 왔다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 방법 자체가 가지는 근사의 한계 때문에 발생하는 적용한계를 유한요소법을 이용하여 검토하였다. 전송선로 근사방법은 λ 2p인 영역(여기에서, p는 전파흡수체의 배열주기, λ는 관심주파수 상한에서의 파장)에서 유효하다. 따라서 높은 물성을 갖거나 물리적 크기가 큰 구조의 전파흡수체는 흔히 이러한 조건을 만족치 않으며, 전자파 산란을 직접 수치해석적으로 계산해야 한다.

Reducing critical boron concentration in a commercial pressurized water reactor core offers many advantages in view of safety and economics. This paper presents a preliminary investigation of a reduced-boron pressurized water reactor core to achieve a clearly negative moderator temperature coefficient at hot zero power using the newly-proposed "Burnable absorber-Integrated Guide Thimble" (BigT) absorbers. The reference core is based on a commercial OPR1000 equilibrium configuration. The reduced-boron ORP1000 configuration was determined by simply replacing commercial gadolinia-based burnable absorbers with the optimized BigT-loaded design. The equilibrium cores in this study were directly searched via repetitive Monte Carlo depletion calculations until convergence. The results demonstrate that, with the same fuel management scheme as in the reference core, application of the BigT absorbers can effectively reduce the critical boron concentration at the beginning of cycle by about 65 ppm. More crucially, the analyses indicate promising potential of the reduced-boron OPR1000 core with the BigT absorbers, as its moderator temperature coefficient at the beginning of cycle is clearly more negative and all other vital neutronic parameters are within practical safety limits. All simulations were completed using the Monte Carlo Serpent code with the ENDF/B-VII.0 library.

Current designs of both large reactor units and small modular reactors utilize a nuclear fuel with increasing enrichment. This increasing demand for better nuclear fuel utilization is a challenge for nuclear fuel handling facilities. The operation with higher enriched fuels leads to reduced reserves to legislative and safety criticality limits of spent fuel transport, storage and final disposal facilities. Design changes in these facilities are restricted due to a boron content in steel and aluminum alloys that are limited by rolling, extrusion, welding and other manufacturing processes. One possible solution for spent fuel pools and casks is the burnup credit method that allows decreasing very high safety margins associated with the fresh fuel assumption in spent fuel facilities. This solution can be supplemented or replaced by an alternative solution based on placing the neutron absorber material directly into the fuel assembly, where its efficiency is higher than between fuel assemblies. A neutron absorber permanently fixed in guide tubes decreases system reactivity more efficiently than absorber sheets between the fuel assemblies. The paper summarizes possibilities of fixed neutron absorbers for various nuclear fuel and fuel handling facilities. Moreover, an absorber material was optimized to propose alternative options to boron. Multiple effective absorbers that do not require steel or aluminum alloy compatibility are discussed because fixed absorbers are placed inside zirconium or steel cladding.

본 논문은 실용적인 면을 고려한 휴대전화 단말기용 전파 흡수체 개발을 위해 연구하였다. 이에 Sendust 배합율, $Al(OH)_3$ 코팅 함유량, 시편의 두께, 지지재의 변화가 전파 흡수체의 전파 흡수능에 치는 영향을 연구하였다. 중심 주파수는 전파 흡수체의 두께가 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm로 증가할수록 2.2 GHz, 1.29 GHz, 842 MHz의 저주파대로 이동하였고, Sendust의 배합율이 80 wt%에서 85 wt%로 증가되면서 2.2 GHz에서 1.91 GHz로, 1.29 GHz에서 801 MHz로, 842 MHz에서 801 MHz로 각각 저주파대로 조절할 수 있었다. 전파 흡수 대역은 Sendust에 $Al(OH)_3$를 코팅했을 때가 코팅하지 않았을 때보다 흡수 대역이 넓어졌다. 이때 전파 흡수체는 지지재는 CPE로 하였으며, 제작 온도는 $70^{\circ}C$로 일정하게 하였다. 제작된 전파 흡수체는 두께가 0.85 mm일 때 1.8 GHz에서 5.76 dB의 우수한 전파 흡수능을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 세 가지 종류의 올레오식 2중 완충기 특성 비교를 위한 첫 단계 연구로서 수학적 모델링을 새롭게 수행하였다. 논문의 완결성을 위해 먼저 전형적인 올레오식 단일 완충기에 대한 모델을 제시한 후, 세 가지 종류의 올레오식 2중 완충기에 대한 수학적 모델을 유도하였다. 수학적 모델링을 위해 베르누이 방정식과 오리피스 방출계수를 이용하였으며, 완충기 내부의 기체와 유체는 각각 폴리트로픽 과정 그리고 비압축성으로 가정하였다. 올레오식 2중 완충기 특성 연구에 제안된 모델을 적극 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Si is a dominant solar material, which is the second most abundant element in the earth giving a benefit in the aspect in cost with low toxicity. However, the inherent limit of Si has an indirect band gap of 1.1 eV resulting in the limited optical absorption. Therefore, a critical issue has been raised to increase the utilization of the incident light into the Si absorber. The enhancement of light absorption is a crucial to improve the performances and thus relieves the cost burden of Si photovoltaics. For the optical aspect, an efficient design of a front surface, where the incident light comes in, has been intensively investigated to improve the performance of photon absorption. Lambertian light trapping can be attained when the light active surface is ideally rough to increase the optical length by about 50 compared to a planar substrate. This suggests that an efficient design may reduce thickness of the Si absorber from the conventional 100~300 ${\mu}m$ to less than 3 ${\mu}m$. Theoretically, a hole-array structure satisfies an equivalent efficiency of c-Si with only one-twelfth mass and one-sixth thickness. Various approaches have been applied to improve the incident light utilization in a Si absorber using textured structures, periodic gratings, photonic crystals, and nanorod arrays. We have designed hole and pillar structured Si absorbers. Four-different Si absorbers have been simultaneously fabricated on an identical Si wafer with hole arrays or pillar arrays at a fixed depth of 2 ${\mu}m$. We have found that the significant enhanced solar cell performances both for the hole arrayed and pillar arrayed Si absorbers compared to that of a planar Si wafer resulting from the effective improvement in the quantum efficiencies.

고성능 복합형 전자파 흡수체를 개발하기 위해 종래에는 지지재로서 주로 Silicone 고무나 CPE(Chloride Polyethylene)가 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 전통 공예에서 사용되어 오던 옻에 대한 특징을 분석하고 옻의 전자파 흡수능을 실험을 통하여 평가하였다. 또한, 옻을 지지재로 사용하여 MnZn 페라이트와 배합하여 전자파 흡수체를 제작한 경우의 전자파 흡수능 및 흡수체의 두께에 따른 흡수능을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 옻을 지지재로 한 MnZn 페라이트 복합형 전자파 흡수체는 CPE나 Silicone 고무를 지지재로 한 전자파 흡수체에 비하여 우수한 전파흡수특성 나타내었으며, 옻을 지지재로 사용한 전자파흡수체의 두께 변화에 따라 정합주파수와 전파흡수능이 변화하는 것으로 나타났다.

Dynamic vibration absorbers are widely used in machinery, buildings, and structures, including bridges. Two cases of their usage are considered in this paper. One is a simply supported beam subjected to either a moving force or a sequence of moving forces, which simulates a train-bridge interaction problem. The other is a case where a primary system is mounted on a base that is not grounded and is excited by an external force. The conditions that the dynamic vibration absorbers must meet in these cases are found and compared to those for usual cases where bases of primary systems are grounded.

This paper describes the effects of dual dynamic vibration absorbers attached to a primary vibration system with damping. The efficiency of dual dynamic vibration absorbers was investigated with the height of amplitude ratio at the resonance frequency ratio of the damped vibration system according to mass ratio, natural frequency ratio and damping ratio. The variation of amplitude ratio related to frequency ratio of primary vibration system is verified experimentally and theoretically according to dual dynamic vibration systems using computer program designed to find mutual relationship between two absorbers.
