Measurement uncertainty assessment was performed for altitude performance test for a turboshaft engine. Mathematical models of measurement were suggested for major performance parameters such as shaft horse power, fuel flow, specific fuel consumption, and airflow. The procedure was compared with the test of turbojet or turbofan engines. Uncertainty involved with the test condition measurement was assessed. Influence of the test condition measurement uncertainty on the corrected performance data was discussed. Uncertainty assessment result was provided for a example test case using a real altitude test facility. For major performance parameters, measurement uncertainties were assessed as 0.65~1.09% including the test condition measurement uncertainty, 0.36~0.94% not including it.

Large eddy simulation was conducted for flow development in a chamber with wall injection which simulates the cold flow in an idealized hybrid rocket motor. It was found that a peculiar timescale, roughly corresponding to St~0.5, resides in the flowfield resulting from the interaction between the main oxidizer and wall injected flows. However, the fact that this time characteristics is absent in the temperature field in the vicinity of the wall indicates that even a small regression rate renders the passive scalar, such as temperature, dissimilar to the velocity field. This implies that a classical approach, which assumes that constant turbulent Prandtl number, should be replaced by a more sophisticated turbulence models to accurately predict the temperature field in the hybrid motor.

It becomes critical to understand an energy coupling mechanism between flow perturbations and combustion heat release rate fluctuations for the understanding of high-frequency combustion instabilities occurring in high-performance combustion/propulsion systems. A significant amount of experimental researches have been carried out to understand flame dynamic characteristics by use of flame transfer functions with artificial flow disturbances. Among them, there exist substantial studies on flame response by the excitation of inlet flow. Recently, experimental studies simulating transversal modes excited in actual combustion systems are under way.

This paper deals with the flight test of propulsion system of middle size electrically powered UAV (EAV2, Electric Aerial Vehicle 2) which is under development in KARI. EAV2 is low speed endurance type UAV whose wing span is 6.9 m, and weight is 18 kg. The UAV has flown for 22 hours in June of 2012. The flight test result showed that the propulsion system worked well suppling power for any circumstances during the test flight. Each power source worked according to the design purpose.

$CO_2$ impacts on marine ecosystems must be elucidated before implementation of $CO_2$ ocean sequestration. This study was performed for the purpose of applying the use of a cephalopod, Octopus vulgaris to the evaluation of $CO_2$ impacts on marine organisms. 1) 5.25% $MgCl_2\;6H_2O$ is an effective anaesthetic for octopus. 2) Cannula implantation into the abdominal aorta is effective for octopus. 3) A restraint chamber made out of the plastic net is suitable to permit the exit of cannula from the body.

Prior concrete strength distributions can be updated by using direct information from test results as well as by taking into account indirect information due to conformity control. Due to the filtering effect of conformity control, the distribution of the material property in the accepted inspected lots will have lower fraction defectives in comparison to the distribution of the entire production (before or without inspection). A methodology is presented to quantify this influence in a Bayesian framework based on prior knowledge with respect to the hyperparameters of concrete strength distributions. An algorithm is presented in order to update prior distributions through numerical integration, taking into account the operating characteristic of the applied conformity criteria, calculated based on Monte Carlo simulations. Different examples are given to derive suitable hyperparameters for incoming strength distributions of concrete offered for conformity assessment, using updated available prior information, maximum-likelihood estimators or a bootstrap procedure. Furthermore, the updating procedure based on direct as well as indirect information obtained by conformity assessment is illustrated and used to quantify the filtering effect of conformity criteria on concrete strength distributions in case of a specific set of conformity criteria.

포텐셜 자료의 해석을 위해서는 상하향 연속을 이용하는 경우가 많다. 빠른 계산과 다양한 적용성 때문에 FFT(Fast Fourier Transform)을 이용한 상하향 연속을 주로 사용하는데, FFT를 적용하기 위해서는 격자망 형태로 얻어진 자료가 필요하다. 현장 중자력 자료는 보통 산발적(scattered)으로 얻어지기 때문에 FFT를 수행하기 위하여 격자망 자료로 변환하는 격자화(gridding) 과정에서 계산적인 오차가 발생한다. 반면 등가샘(equivalent source) 방법은 주어진 자료에 맞는 가상의 샘(source)들의 조합을 생성하고, 구해진 샘들의 조합으로부터 임의의 영역에서 필드값을 구하므로 격자화 과정이 필요없다. 이 연구의 목적은 등가샘 방법의 필요성을 보이고 여러 가지 등가샘 알고리즘을 비교분석하고 현장 자료에 사용하기 적합한 등가샘 방법들을 보여주는데 있다. 그림 1에서 보듯이 FFT를 사용한 상향 연속은 FFT 이론상 전 영역에 대한 적분이 필요하나 현장에서는 일부분의 자료만을 획득할 수 있으므로 상향 연속에서 정확한 자력값으로 연속을 수행하는 것은 불가능하다. 그러나 주어진 값들로 등가샘을 구성하여 상향 연속을수행한 결과는 상대적으로 보다 정확한 해에 도달한다. 또한 등가샘 방법을 이용한 연속의 장점은 그림 2와 같이 얻어진 자료의 높이가 서로 다른 자료를 주어진 높이로 연속을수행할 수 있다는 점이다. 또한 한번 등가샘들을 구성하면 이를 이용하여 격자화, 필터링 등을 해석을 위한 기초 자료처리에 적용할 수 있다.

시뮬레이션의 궁극적인 목표인 분산 시뮬레이션은 Virtual Simulation과 Constructive Simulation 이외에 Live Simulation이 동시에 참여하여 동일한 환경 내에서 상호작용 하는 것을 추구하고 있다. 따라서 서로 다른 목적과 기술로 제작된 시뮬레이션은 통합된 환경 내에서 사실적으로 상호작용 해야만 할 것이다. 통합 환경(Synthetic Environment)은 시각적 영상을 표현하기 위한 Visual Database 이상의 의미를 내포하고 있다. 상호운용성(Interoperability)은 타 Model 및 Simulation에서 부터 제공되는 기능을 사용하거나 기능을 제공할 수 있는 유용성(Availability)을 뜻하기 때문에 표준화된 통합 환경의 사용 및 교환을 요구한다. 1980년대 중반, 미 국방성은 Image Generator 제작 회사마다 독자적인 데이터베이스 포맷을 사용함으로 인해 시뮬레이터 데이터베이스의 중복성이 야기되고 있다는 것을 지적하고 통합 환경 데이터 교환 문제를 해결하기 위한 최초의 관련 연구를 수행하였다. Virtual Simulation에서 막대한 비용이 소모되는 시뮬레이터 데이터베이스의 제작 및 유지 보수에 들어가는 이중적인 비용 절감에 대한 관심은 최근 SEDRIS에 이르러 표준 교환에 대한 명세의 필요성이 보다 구체화되어 지구상에 존재하는 각종 주변 환경을 기술하기 위한 통합 환경표현 및 교환의 표준화가 진행되고 있다. 국내에서는 문화콘텐츠진흥원, 한국게임산업개발원, 한국전자통신연구원, 국방과학연구소, 서울대, 아주대, 세종대 등을 중심으로 연구가 진행 중이며, 그중 세종대학교는 SEDRIS 데이터로 사용될 원본 데이터의 충실도와 신뢰도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 연구하고 있다. SEDRIS는 그 응용가능성이 무궁무진하여 향후 인공적인 가상환경을 대표하는 용어로 사용될 것이며, 공개된 표준을 통한 소스 데이터의 공유로 상호운용성을 위한 초석을 제공하여 궁극적으로는 비용 절감 효과가 있을 것으로 전망된다.

The experiment was performed at the large wind tunnel of the Chungnam National University to measure the velocity distribution around the stern of a Liquefied Natural Gas Carrier model. The data, mean velocity vectors of turbulent shear flows at the stern and near-wake including the propeller plane, were obtained by a five-hole Pilot tube for the double body model fixed inside the wind tunnel test section. The present result of the double body model shows a close agreement with the result of the lowing tank experiment performed by the KRISO for the same ship model. The characteristics of the LNG stern flow are discussed based on the measured velocity distribution. The data can be very useful for the validation of some numerical methods in computational fluid dynamics.

Deflection estimation at engine room upper deck panel is performed for the actual ship structure. These deflection behaviours are basically investigated from not only the data based on the full series results of nonlinear analysis using Incremental Galerkin's Method but also actual deflection data measured from damaged ship under construction in dry dock. The effects of residual stress, initial deflection and static loading are also included. The computed estimation results of upper deck plate panel including theme effects are shown that upper deck platings of new ship expected less deflection magnitude than damaged ship.
