  • This study proposes a new algorithm which performs a production simulation under various constraints and maintains computational efficiency. In order to consider the environmental and operational constraints, the proposed algorithm is based on optimization techniques formulated in LP form In the algorithm, "system characteristic constraints" reflect the system characteristics such as LDC shape, unit loading order and forced outage rate. By using the concept of Energy Invariance Property and two operational rules i.e. Compliance Rule for Emission Constraint, Compliance Rule for Limited Energy of Individual Unit, the number of system characteristic constraints is appreciably reduced. As a solution method of the optimization problem, the author uses Karmarkar's method which performs effectively in solving large scale LP problem. The efficiency of production simulation is meaningful when it is effectively used in power system planning. With the proposed production simulation algorithm, an optimal expansion planning model which can cope with operational constraints, environmental restriction, and various uncertainties is developed. This expansion planning model is applied to the long range planning schemes by WASP, and determines an optimal expansion scheme which considers the effect of supply interruption, load forecasting errors, multistates of unit operation, plural limited energy plants etc.

  • Post weld heat treatment(PWHT) is usually carried out to remove the residual stress and to improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of welded joints. By the way, welding structure transformed owing to PWHT and reheating for repair loads the random cycles fatigue as offshore welding structure of constant low cycle fatigue as pressure vessel, and then, pre-existing flaws or cracks exist in a structural component and those cracks grow under cyclic loading. Therefore, the effects of PWHT and stress ratio on fatigue crack growth behaviors were studied on the three regions such as HAZ, sub-critical HAZ and deposit metal of welded joints in SM53 steel. Fatigue crack growth behavior of as-weld depended on microstructure and fatigue crack growth rate of HAZ was the lowest at eac region, but after PWHT it was somewhat higher than that of as-wel. In case of applying the stress($10kg/mm^2$) during PWHT, fatigue crack growth resistance tended to increase in the overall range of .DELTA.K.

  • A convenient procedure for seismic retrofit of existing buildings is to use passive control methods, like using friction dampers in steel frames with bracing systems. In this method, reduction of seismic demand and increase of ductility generally improve seismic performance of the structures. Some of its advantages are development of a stable rectangular hysteresis loop and independence on environmental conditions such as temperature and loading rate. In addition to friction dampers, masonry-infill panels improve the seismic resistance of steel structures by increasing lateral strength and stiffness and reducing story drifts. In this study, the effect of masonry-infill panels on seismic performance of a three-span four-story steel frame with Pall friction dampers is investigated. The results show that friction dampers in the steel frame increase the ductility and decrease the drift (to less than 1%). The infill panels fulfill their function during the imposed drift and increase structural strength. It can be concluded that infill panels together with friction dampers, reduced structural dynamic response. These infill panels dissipated input earthquake energy from 4% to 10%, depending on their thickness.

  • For improving the seismic performance of the nuclear power plant (NPP) piping system, attempts have been made to apply a dynamic absorber (DA). However, the current piping DA design method is limited because it cannot provide the globally optimum values for the target design seismic loading. Therefore, this study proposes a seismic time history analysis-based DA optimal design method for piping. To this end, the Kriging approach is introduced to reduce the numerical cost required for seismic time history analyses. The appropriate design of the experiment method is used to increase the efficiency in securing response data. A gradient-based method is used to efficiently deal with the multi-dimensional unconstrained optimization problem of the DA optimal design. As a result, the proposed method showed an excellent response reduction effect in several responses compared to other optimal design methods. The proposed method showed that the average response reduction rate was about 9% less at the maximum acceleration, about 5% less at the maximum value of the response spectrum, about 9% less at the maximum relative displacement, and about 4% less at the maximum combined stress compared to existing optimal design methods. Therefore, the proposed method enables an effective optimal DA design method for mitigating seismic response in NPP piping in the future.

  • In this paper, elastic-plastic fracture mechanics analysis is performed to determine the critical crack sizes of the multipurpose canister (MPC) manufactured using austenitic stainless steel under dynamic loading conditions that simulate drop accidents. Firstly, dynamic finite element (FE) analysis is performed using Abaqus v.2018 with the KORAD (Korea Radioactive Waste Agency)-21 model under two drop accident conditions. Through the FE analysis, critical locations and through-thickness stress distributions in the MPC are identified, where the maximum plastic strain occurs during impact loadings. Then, the evaluation using the failure assessment diagram (FAD) is performed by postulating an external surface crack at the critical location to determine the critical crack depth. It is found that, for the drop cases considered in this paper, the principal failure mechanism for the circumferential surface crack is found to be the plastic collapse due to dominant high bending axial stress in the thickness. For axial cracks, the plastic collapse is also the dominant failure mechanism due to high membrane hoop stress, followed by the ductile tearing analysis. When incorporating the strain rate effect on yield strength and fracture toughness, the critical crack depth increases from 10 to 20%.

  • In this study, we investigate the mechanical behavior of each skin layer, in terms of the nominal stress-strain curve by uniaxial tensile tests using specimens of porcine skin in two forms: dermis containing epidermis, and all three layers. All tests were performed under cyclic loading at the constant strain rate of 10-3 s-1 at ambient temperature. To measure the precise initial cross-sectional areas of each layer, the thickness of each skin layer was quantified by counting the number of pixels on the photo-image using image-processing software. In the tensile test, force-strain curves of the total skin and dermis with epidermis were obtained. Subsequently, a rule of mixtures was applied to determine the nonlinear mechanical properties of the hypodermis layer. In conclusion, we could define the uniaxial tensile behavior of the hypodermis, and additionally predict the weight effect of the dermis and hypodermis layers in the tensile test.

  • In order to study the triaxial mechanical behavior of steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete (SFRHPC), the standard triaxial compression tests with four different confining pressures are performed on the cylindrical specimens. Three different steel fiber volumes (0, 1% and 2%) are added in the specimens with diameter of 50 mm and height of 100 mm. Test results show that the triaxial compressive strength and peak strain increase with the increasing of fiber content at the same confining pressure. At the same steel fiber content, the triaxial compressive strength and peak strain increases with the confining pressure. The compressive strength growth rate declines as the confining pressure and steel fiber content increases. Longitudinal cracks are dominant in specimens with or without steel fiber under uniaxial compression loading. While with the confining pressure increases, diagonal crack due to shear is obvious. The Mohr-Coulomb criterion is illustrated can be used to describe the failure behavior, and the cohesive force increases as steel fiber content increases. Finally, the numerical model is built by using the PFC3D software. In the numerical model a index is introduced to reflect the effect of steel fiber content on the triaxial compressive behavior. The simulating stress-strain curve and failure mode of SFRHPC are agree well with the experimental results.

  • 본 연구는 생물학적 폐수처리공정의 하나인 회전원판법(RBC)을 이용하여 질산화 반응을 향상 시키는 목적으로 수행되었다. 그 일환으로 회전원판법(RBC)에 의한 질산화반응의 향상을 평가하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 Modified Dephanox 공정에 회전원판법(RBC)를 적용하여 연구를 수행 하였다. 회전원판법(RBC)을 이용한 공정의 가장 두드러진 특징은 질산화 반응조 안으로 질산화반응에 방해인자로 작용하는 고농도의 부유성 고형물(suspended solid)이 유입되어도 질산화반응을 원활히 수행할 수 있다는 데 있다. 게다가 공정의 운영결과 TCOD 제거 효율은 유입 TCOD 부하율이 0.04~0.1 kg/$day{\cdot}m^3$ 일 때는 약 90%이상의 TCOD 제거효율이 나타났다. T-N 제거효율은 약 75% 정도로 실험실규모의 공정운영에도 불구하고 높은 제거효율이 관찰되었다. 또한 인 의 경우 ${PO_4}^{3-}$-P 및 T-P 제거효율은 유입 ${PO_4}^{3-}$-P 및 T-P 부하율이 증가할수록 제거효율은 증가하는 경향을 나타내고 있다. 결론적으로 Modified Dephanox 공정에서 독립질산화 반응을 수행하는 회전원판법(RBC)의 이용은 높은 질산화반응을 수행할 뿐만 아니라 유입되는 부유성 고형물(suspended solid)의 영향을 최소화하여 안정적인 처리효율을 나타내는 시스템이다.

  • 본 연구에서는 WPC의 열안정성을 향상시키기 위해 폴리프로펠렌 매트릭스에 목분과 폴리인산염(ammonium polyphosphate, APP)의 삼종혼합 후, 목분과 난연제 첨가에 따른 목재플라스틱 복합재(wood plastic composites, WPC)의 열분해 거동이 조사되었다. 모든 배합비의 WPC 열분해 거동은 질소의 환경에서 분당 $10^{\circ}C$ 상승속도로 제어하여 열중량분석기(Thermogravimetric analyzer)를 통해 분석하였다. 목분의 열분해온도가 PP의 열분해온도 보다 낮기 때문에 목분에 의해 생성된 char막은 PP로의 열전달 속도를 낮추며, 2차 열분해온도 증가 및 열분해속도를 늦춘다. APP를 첨가한 WPC의 경우 1차 열분해온도 감소 및 2차 열분해온도의 증가를 보여준다. 목분의 함량이 높은 WPC의 경우, APP 첨가 시 1차 열분해온도 감소 및 2차 열분해속도가 증가하였고, 고온에서 잔여물의 양은 APP 함량이 증가할수록 크게 증가하였다. APP가 첨가된 WPC 경우, 목분의 함량이 10 wt%에서 50 wt%로 증가 시 고온에서 잔여물 양이 증가하였는데, 이는 APP 및 목질섬유의 char화가 동시에 발생되기 때문으로 보이며 결과적으로 목분 함량이 증가할수록 APP의 효과가 높게 나타나 열안정 효과를 관찰할 수 있었다.
