Resisting an accidental impact of large commercial aircrafts is an important aspect of advanced nuclear power plant (NPP) design. Especially after the 9·11 event, some regulations were enacted, which required the design of NPPs should consider the accidental impact of large commercial aircrafts. Normal working of equipment is important for stopping reactor under an impact when an NPP is in operation. However, there is a lack of reliable analysis and research on the impact test of nuclear prototype equipment. Therefore, in order to study the response of the equipment under high acceleration impact, a centrifugal pump is selected as the research object to perform the impact test. A horizontal half-sinusoidal pulse wave was applied to the working pump. The test results show that the horizontal response of the motor and flange is greater compared to other parts, as well as the vertical response of the coupling. The stress response of the pump body support and motor support is high, hence these parts should be considered in the design of the pump. Finally, combined with the damage and stress evaluation results of the pump under different amplitudes, the ultimate impact acceleration that the pump can withstand is given.

The dynamic characterization of a three-story auxiliary building in a nuclear power plant (NPP) constructed with a monolithic reinforced concrete shear wall is investigated in this study. The shear wall is subjected to a joint-research, round-robin analysis organized by the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, South Korea, to predict seismic responses of that auxiliary building in NPP through a shake table test. Five different intensity measures of the base excitation are applied to the shaking table test to get the acceleration responses from the different building locations for one horizontal direction (front-back). Simultaneously to understand the global damage scenario of the structure, a frequency search test is conducted after each excitation. The primary motivation of this study is to develop a nonlinear numerical model considering the multi-layered shell element and compare it with the test result to validate through the modal parameter identification and floor responses. In addition, the acceleration amplification factor is evaluated to judge the dynamic behavior of the shear wall with the existing standard, thus providing theoretical support for engineering practice.

The Hybrid Mass Damper (HMD) has proven effective in mitigating vibrations in high-rise structures subject to seismic and wind-induced excitations. One derivative configuration of the HMD mounts an Active Mass Damper (AMD) atop a Tuned Mass Damper (TMD). However, the control efficacy of such HMDs may be compromised when confronted with loads that exceed their design parameters. Additionally, the confined structural space within high-rise structures often limits the feasibility and economic viability of retrofitting HMD systems. This study introduces an Acceleration-based Fuzzy Power Approach Rate Sliding Mode Control (AFP-SMC) algorithm aimed at enhancing the control efficacy of HMDs while minimizing their stroke and force output requirements. Employing the Canton Tower as a research prototype, an analytical model incorporating HMDs was established, and a comparative analysis between the AFP-SMC and Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control algorithms was conducted for efficacy. The control performance of the AFP-SMC control algorithm under different control parameter variations was investigated. Furthermore, by experimentally assessing the AMD subsystem within the Canton Tower, friction and ripple force formulas were derived to bolster the analytical model, thereby validating the robustness of the AFP-SMC algorithm. The results show that the proposed AFP-SMC algorithm effectively reduces the vibration response of the structure and the stroke and control force output of HMDs, and exhibits superior overall control performance and robustness compared to the LQG algorithm.

본 연구는 PC 사용 환경에 주로 사용되는 2.5인치 HDD의 수명을 예측하기 위해서, 시장 불량 모드분석을 반영한 시험계획을 수립하고, 온도 스트레스 인자를 반영한 가속 수명 모델을 구하고자 하였다. PC 사용 환경을 분석 한 후, 쓰기와 읽기 동작을 각 50 %, 임의 주소와 순차 주소방식을 각 50 %로 시험 절차를 정했고, $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$ 환경에서 최대 성능의 95 % 성능조건으로 1000시간 시험하는 조건으로 가속 수명을 실시하였다. 시험과정에서 발생하는 불량 발생시간의 데이터로 anderson-darling 적합도 검증을 진행하여 불량 분포가 weibull 분포를 따름을 확인하였고, 형상모수와 척도모수가 동일함을 확인하였으며, 와이블-아레니우스 모형을분석하여, 형상모수 0.7177, 사용 조건($30^{\circ}C$)에 특성 수명 429434시간을 산출하였다. 가속 온도별 시험데이터로 동질성 검증을 실시한 결과 통계적으로 유의하지 않았으며(p<0.05), 활성화 에너지로 0.2775 eV를 산출하였다. 가속 시험의 정확성 확보차원에서 가속시험 불량시료와 시장 반품 시료로 고장분석을 진행한 결과, 불량 모드 별 점유율에 세부차이는 있으나, 점유율 순위는 일치 하였다. 본 연구는 PC환경에서 사용되는 2.5 inch HDD의 가속 시험 절차를 제안하며, 제조자와 사용자 간에 수명 예측에 대한 도움을 주고자 한다.

도장, 용사 및 도금 등의 강교용 방청법의 장기내구성 평가에는 대기노출실험법이 사용되고 있으나, 노화데이터를 얻기까지는 수년에서 수십 년이라는 장기간의 실험기간을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 방청법을 포함하여 최근에 개발, 사용되고 있는 강교용 방청법의 장기내구성의 단기간 평가를 위한 기초단계로서 무도장 강재의 부식내구성 평가를 위한 부식환경 촉진실험법의 활용에 대해 검토하였다. 본 실험에는 일본공업규격(JIS)에 규정되어 있는 S6-cycle 부식환경 촉진실험조건을 이용하여, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150일간의 무도장 강재의 부식 중량감소량 및 두께감소량의 경시변화를 정량적으로 평가하였다. 그리고 기존의 대기노출실험과 본 실험으로부터 구한 중량감소량을 이용하여 촉진배율을 산출하고, 대기노출실험지의 지역환경구분, 해안선으로부터 거리, 아황산가스량 및 비래(飛來)염분량과의 관계를 검토하였다. 그 결과, 촉진배율을 비래염분량으로 정식화하였으며, S6-cycle 부식촉진실험결과의 대기노출환경에의 활용 가능성을 제시하였다.

In this paper, an acceleration based passenger evacuation simulation is performed. In order to describe a passenger‘s behavior in an evacuation situation, a passenger is modeled as a rigid body which translates in the horizontal plane and rotates along the vertical axis. The position and rotation angle of a passenger are calculated by solving the dynamic equations of motions at each time step. The destination force, the contact force, and the group force are considered as external forces and the moments due to each force are also considered. With the passenger model proposed in this paper, the test problems in International Maritime Organization, Maritime Safety Committee/Circulation 1238(IMO MSC/Circ.1238) are implemented and the effects of passenger rotation on the evacuation time are confirmed.

Contouring errors are important especially for high speed and precision machining. In this study, contouring errors along contours having inflection points are studied. When a table of a machine tool moves along a circular path, acceleration acts toward the center of the circle. Thus, at inflection points, acceleration as well as inertia force changes its direction abruptly. The effect of inertia force on the contouring error is investigated in this study. It is found that the contouring error at an inflection point is proportional to the acceleration. This result can be useful in determining contouring errors along general paths.

With the objective of studying the response of brain tissue in a transient rotational acceleration of the head, as occurs in car crash, the problem of a cylindrical case containing a prototype brain material of silicone gel and subjected to a rotational acceleration around the axis of the cylinder is analysed. The prototype material is considered to be homogeneous and isotropic, and is modeled alternatively as a linear elastic or a linear viscoelastic solid. The computational model for the present problem consists of a 3-dimensional isoparametric finite element model, wherein large deformations and large strains are treated through the updated Lagrangian approach. A comparison of the results of the present 3-dimensional computations, with the attendant assumptions on material data, is made with the results of independent experimental study. The deformation profiles and the major characteristics of response of the brain material are in good agreement with the test results. Moreover, the study suggests the possibility that the use of more accurate material data may yield very useful results even appropriate for accurate quantification of deformations.

This paper adresses the shaking table tests with 1/100 scaled model followed similitude law for OOdam main designing section to understand nonlinear behavior characteristics of concrete dam body by ground motion. As earthquake wave, Hachinohe and El Centre waves were used and acceleration and displacements are measured to analyze behaviors of dam body. For maximum ground acceleration range $(0.3\~0.9 g)$, the results showed linear behavior regardless of maximum 9round acceleration and secured safety of structure. To analyze the behavior of dam after tension cracking, 3 cm-notch was placed at the critical section of over-flowing section. As results of applying Hachinohe wave(0.8 g), Even though tension cracks were formed at over-flowing section by Hachinohe wave(0.8 g), it showed that the dam is stable for supporting upper stream Part of water tank of dam.
