  • In this study, a stability analysis was conducted through finite element analysis (FEA) of a simplified model of a fire ladder truck by changing the ascending angle, turning angle, and boundary conditions between the outrigger and the ground. The results of the analysis showed that decreasing the angle of the ladder car increases the moment due to the ladder weight, decreasing the safety factor despite being under the same load conditions. In the case of a rotating radius, the stability was found to vary depending on the boundary conditions. A comparative analysis in the future with these results and the experimental values from the actual fire ladder truck may determine the most appropriate boundary conditions based on the analysis program. It is expected to predict the risk of damage and rollover by assessing the stability of aerial ladder vehicles under different conditions.

  • Most of the downstream of the river is blocked by beams, so fishways are required for the movement of conciliatory fish species and connection with the upstream. Therefore, it is very important as an ecological pier that can help free movement of fish. The three previously installed eel ladders use only brushes on the bottom. For find out the effect of the bottom material except to brush, experimented used model glass eel ladders to the ascent of glass eel. The eel ladder model was 1.2 m length, 0.3 m wide, and 0.1 m high, and three gravels of different particles were attached to the bottom of the fish ladder setting on the Geumgang Estuary Bank. The first model ladder was made of gravel with particles of 5 mm, and the second model ladder was made of gravel with particles of 2 mm. The third model ladder was made by solidifying with particles of 1 mm or less cement. All experiments were repeated 5 times for 1 hour. As a result of the experiment, the lower the angle, and the smaller the gravel particles, the more glass eels are ascended to the ladder, but the made of cement was nearly not ascent. The gravel-bottom model ladder has a lower discharge and flow rate than the brush ladder so more glass eels can ascent ladder, and if the glass eel ladder is improved through experiments applying various floor materials and variables in the future, more glass eels are going to ascent glass eel ladder.

  • In the conventional digital ultrasound scanner, the reflected signal is sampled either in polar coordinates of R-$\theta$ method, or in Cartesian coordinates of uniform ladder algorithm (ULA). The R-$\theta$ scan method necessitates a coordinate transform process which makes hardware complex in comparison with ULA scan mrthoA In spite of this complexity, R-$\theta$ method has a good resolution in ultrasonographic (US) image, since scan direction of the US imaging is a radial direction. In this paper, a new digital scan converter is proposed, which is named the radius uniform ladder algorithm (RULA). The RULA has the rome scan direction as the US scanning in the radial direction and as the display space in the $\theta$ direction. In tllis new approach, sampled points we uniformly distributed in each horizontal line i.n well as in each radial ray so that the data are displayed in the Cartesian coordinates by the 1-D interpolation process. The propped algorithm has an uniform resolution in the periphery and the center field in comparison with equi-angle ULA and equi-interval ULA. To extend the scan angle, concentric square raster sampling (CSRS) is adopted with reduction of discontinuities on the junctions between horizontal scan and vertical scan. The discontinuities are reduced by using the hmction filtering along the $\theta$ direction.

  • Herein, resin-formed polysilsesquioxanes (PSSQs) were synthesized using monomolecular fluoro silane as a precursor. The synthesized PSSQs exhibited anti-smudge performance and were used as coating liquid. Two structures were acquired by controlling the amount of the silane precursor and the K2CO3 catalyst; these materials were used to prepare the anti-smudge coating liquid solution. The synthesized product was analyzed by various methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, gel permeation chromatography, and water contact angle measurement. The results confirmed that the as-synthesized PSSQs exhibited the ladder structure and had a molecular weight of 5,117 g/mol and water contact angle of 102.31°.

  • We have studied biofouling in Korea's offshore wind farms by using image analysis through monitoring and surface energy analysis. To observe the biofouling characteristics, samples were fabricated using Micron extra 2 and PropOne, which have a self-polishing property, and Hempathane HS 55610, which is used in substructure coatings. The manufactured samples were installed at the bottom of a ladder in a substructure, and monitored for 10 months. The most biofouling occurred in the sample without the self-polishing property, and algae, barnacles and corallinales were observed. The surface energy analysis used the Owens-Wendt-Rabel and Kaelble (OWRK) model, which uses the contact angles of two standard fluids. As a result of calculating the surface energy using contact angle measurement, the sample without the self-polishing property showed the highest value. This result was consistent with the biofouling incidence observed through monitoring.

  • Isotactic polyacrylonitrile (PAN) with triad isotacticity of 0.53, which was determined by $^{13}C$ NMR, using dialkylmagnesium as an initiator, was successfully synthesized. Isothermal treatment of iso-PAN was conducted in air at 200, 220, 250 and $280^{\circ}C$. Structural evolutions and chemical changes were studied with Fourier transformation infrared and wide-angle X-ray diffraction during stabilization. A new parameter $CNF={I_{2240cm}}^{-1}/ ({I_{1595cm}}^{-1}+f^*{I_{1595cm}}^{-1})$ was defined to evaluate residual nitrile groups. Crystallinity and crystal size were calculated with X-ray diffraction dates. The results indicated that the nitrile groups had partly converted into a ladder structure as stabilization proceeded. The rate of reaction increased with treatment temperature; crystallinity and crystal size decreased proportionally to pyrolysis temperature. The iso-conversional method coupled with the Kissinger and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa methods were used to determine kinetic parameters via differential scanning calorimetry analysis with different heating rates. The active energy of the reaction was 171.1 and 169.1 kJ/mol, calculated with the two methods respectively and implied the sensitivity of the reaction with temperature.

  • The phase criterion of the feedback cycle of low-speed edgetones has been obtained using the jet-edge interaction model which is based on the substitution of an array of dipoles for the reaction of the wedge to the impinging jet. The edgetone is produced by the feedback loop between the downstream-convected sinuous disturbance and upstream-propagating waves generated by the impingement of the disturbance on the wedge. By estimation of the phase difference between the downstream and the upstream disturbances, the relationship between the edge distance and the wavelength is obtained according to the phase-locking condition at the nozzle lip. With a little variation depending on the characteristics of jet-edge interaction, the criterion can be approximated as follows: h/.LAMBDA. + h/.lambda. = n - 1/4, where h is the stand-off distance between the nozzle lip and the edge tip, .LAMBDA. is the wavelength of downstream-convected wave, .lambda. is the wavelength of the upstream-propagating acoustic wave and n is the stage number for the ladder-like characteristics of frequency. The present criterion has been confirmed by estimating wavelengths from available experimental data and investigating their appropriateness. The above criterion has been found to be effective up to 90.deg. of wedge angle corresponding to the cavitytones.

  • 알루미늄 합금 Al 6082-T6는 최근에 개발되어 북유럽 등의 선진국에서는 그 뛰어난 해양 내식성과 우수한 강도로 인하여 해양구조물의 헬리데크(Helideck), 타워 갱웨이(Tower gangway), 알루미늄 피팅류(Aluminium fitting)등의 해양구조물과 플랫폼(Flatform), 알루미늄 래더(Aluminium ladder)등의 선박부품, 차량, 기계부품 분야에서 전 세계적으로 널리 사용되기 시작하였다. 그러나 전통적으로 용접금속의 기공은 결함으로 분류 되고, Rakesh Kumar 등의 논문에 따르면 용접 시 용접금속 내에 발생되어진 미세기공이 기계적 성질에 악영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되어졌다. 따라서 용접금속내의 발생하는 기공을 방지하는 용접공정의 개발이 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 Al 6082-T6 고속 MIG용접에서 기공방지를 위한 용접공정을 개발하는 것이다. Al 6082-T6의 7t 플레이트에 Al 5356의 와이어를 사용하여 아크길이 변경 및 용접속도를 60cpm과 120cpm으로 변경하여 실험하였고, 용접속도 120cpm의 고속 MIG용접에서 토치 진행각을 변경하여 실험을 진행하였다. 용접공정 파라메터 변경에 따른 기공율 측정은 이미지 분석 소프트웨어를 사용하여 정량적으로 분석하였다.
