Polymer materials have been used offensively as construction materials for automobiles, ships, and airplanes in recent years, and their impact resistance has been obliged to be examined. In the present study, a dropped load and a specimen, equipped with high responsible strain gauges respectively, were dropped and then the changes of load and absorption energy with time were observed. It was found that the waveforms for dropped weight coincided with output signal wave for specimen during the destruction test. Based on this experimental result, three disc type of specimens with different compositions were prepared and examined. This instrumented impact test method showed that each specimen can be distinguished from each other better than conventional tests and is expected to contribute to assess test results of impact resistance for some materials under development.

Effects of specimen thickness and notch shape on fracture mode appearing in drop weight tear test (DWTT) specimens of API X70 and X80 linepipe steels were investigated. Detailed microstructural analysis of fractured DWTT specimens showed that the fractures were initiated in normal cleavage mode near the specimen notch, and that some separations were observed at the center of the fracture surfaces. The Chevron-notch (CN) DWTT specimens had broader normal cleavage surfaces than the pressed-notch (PN) DWTT specimens. Larger inverse fracture surfaces appeared in the PN DWTT specimens because of the higher fracture initiation energy at the notch and the higher strain hardening in the hammer-impacted region. The number and length of separations were larger in the CN DWTT specimens than in the PN DWTT specimens, and increased with increasing specimen thickness due to the plane strain condition effect. As the test temperature decreased, the tendency to separations increased, but separations were not found when the cleavage fracture prevailed at very low temperatures. The DWTT test results, such as upper shelf energy and energy transition temperature, were discussed in relation with microstructures and fracture modes including cleavage fracture, shear fracture, inverse fracture, and separations.

The purposes of this study were to test the effect of balance training and environmental enrichment on motor performance after traumatic cerebellar injury in the rat. Traumatic cerebellar injury was induced by weight drop model and after operation they were housed in individual standard cages for 24 hours. Twenty two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into control and experimental groups. The control group was housed in standard cage for 7 days. The experimental group I was housed in standard cage after balance training for 7 days. The experimental group II was housed in environmental enrichment cage after balance training for 7 days. Vestibular drop test and tilting plane test was examined at preoperation, on 1st day after operation and 7th day after operation to the rats. The results of this experiment were as follows: 1. In motor behavioral test, at preoperation and on 1 day after operation, the outcomes were not different among the groups. But on 7th day after operation, the outcomes of group I were better than that in control group, and group II were better than group I. These results suggest that behavioral motor outcome by simultaneously application of balance training and environmental enrichment in traumatic cerebellar injured rats were more improve than that by just balance training.

본 연구에서는 낙하추 방식의 충격시험기를 이용하여 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재의 저에너지 충격거동을 조사하였다. 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재는 유리섬유직물의 면재와 우레탄 폼의 코아로 구성되어 있으며 위쪽 면재와 아래쪽 면재는 폴리에스터 보강섬유로 코아의 두께방향을 따라 스티칭하여 일체형으로 결합되어 있다. 이때 코아의 두께가 충격거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 코아의 두께를 달리한 네 종류의 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재를 고려하였다. 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재에 작용되는 충격조건은 낙하추의 질량과 낙하추의 낙하높이를 조절함으로써 변화시켰다. 연구결과에 따르면 코아의 두께, 낙하추의 낙하높이, 그리고 낙하추의 질량 등의 변화는 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재에서의 충격하중, 충격체와의 접촉시간, 면재에 형성된 변형율 등에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 또한 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재는 스티칭부의 보강효과로 인해 손상을 억제시킬 분 아니라 손상이 발생한 경우에도 구조물로서 역할을 담당할 수 있다. 그러나 스티칭된 샌드위치 복합재를 효율적으로 기존의 구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 스티칭부에서의 수지함침성을 개선할 수 있는 제작공법의 연구가 필요하다.

In this study, the estimating weight data of eight leading ships of Korea navy were processed by comparing with the final weight data of their incline test results statistically, and are analyzed as follows; The maximum criteria of the weight margins of Korea naval ship in the preliminary and detailed design phases seem to be appropriate values, but the minimum criteria would be advisable to update more reasonable values. And, the limitation that the acceptable deviation of lightship weight should be 10 % of the lightship weight on a naval ship's ROC(Required Operational Capabilities) is recommended to be prohibited, because it comes from the weight estimation which has considerable uncertainty and it may also drop off design flexibility. Finally, the SWBS(Ship Work Breakdown System) groups which have larger deviation values in the estimating weight of naval ships are necessary to improve their accuracies, and to upgrade their weight database continuously.

The purpose of this study was (a) to develop carbon nanotube-based shock absorbers for reducing potentially harmful impact forces and excessive foot pronation, and (b) to briefly determine how the effects of carbon nanotube-based shock absorbers on biomechanical variance during drop landing. A university student(age: 24.0 yrs, height: 176.2 cm, weight: 679.5 N) who has no musculoskeletal disorder was recruited as the subject. Hardness, specific gravity, tensile strength, elongation, 100% modulus, tear strength, split tear strength, compression set, resilience, vertical GRF, and loading rate were determined for each material. For each dependent variable, a descriptive statistics was used for different conditions. The property test results showed that tensile strength, tear strength, split tear strength, compression set, and resilience in carbon nanotube-based shock absorbers were greater than general Ethylene Vinyl Acetate(EVA). These indicated that resistance against variable strength in developed carbon nanotube-based shock absorbers were greater than general EVA. In vertical GRF of CNTC was less than those of EVA during drop landing and loading rate of CNTC was greater than EVA. It seems that the use of CNT can be a effective way of reducing and controlling shock from impact.

Reinforced concrete (RC) columns which are the main vertical structural members are exposed to several static and dynamic effects such as earthquake and wind. However, impact loading that is sudden impulsive dynamic one is the most effective loading type acting on the RC columns. Impact load is a kind of impulsive dynamic load which is ignored in the design process of RC columns like other structural members. The behavior of reinforced concrete columns under impact loading is an area of research that is still not well understood; however, work in this area continues to be motivated by a broad range of applications. Examples include reinforced concrete structures designed to resist accidental loading scenarios such as falling rock impact; vehicle or ship collisions with buildings, bridges, or offshore facilities; and structures that are used in high-threat or high-hazard applications, such as military fortification structures or nuclear facilities. In this study, free weight falling test setup is developed to investigate the behavior effects on RC columns under impact loading. For this purpose, eight RC column test specimens with 1/3 scale are manufactured. While drop height and mass of the striker are constant, application point of impact loading, stirrup spacing and concrete compression strength are the experimental variables. The time-history of the impact force, the accelerations of two points and the displacement of columns were measured. The crack patterns of RC columns are also observed. In the light of experimental results, low-velocity impact behavior of RC columns were determined and interpreted. Besides, the finite element models of RC columns are generated using ABAQUS software. It is found out that proposed finite element model could be used for evaluation of dynamic responses of RC columns subjected to low-velocity impact load.

This study was intended to provide an improved method for testing textiles in high school. Four kinds of test subjects were selected and applied to the classes. Problems of the methods in the textbooks were corrected as follows: 1)Burning test: The number of specimen is reduced to 3 kinds of fibers(cotton, wool, and polyester) and recommends are given to make result by comparing with the burning characteris-tics of paper and hair. 2) Absorbency test: Test Method is changed to drop test. The result is recorded by measuring time required for the water drops absorbed to the specimen. 3) Wrinkle recovery test: A glass is provided instead of metal weight. The method of measuring angle which is made by the specimen is shown in figure. 4) Effects of Detergent: 0.2% of detergent solution is provided before class. The amount of oil and carbon black is specified. Students have generally agreed that the improved methods were better than those in the text-books after they made the above 4 recommendable experiments(p<.001)
