  • This paper describes partial turbulence simulation and validation of the aerodynamic pressures on building models for an open-jet small-scale 12-Fan Wall of Wind (WOW) facility against their counterparts in a boundary-layer wind tunnel. The wind characteristics pertained to the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) mean wind speed profile and turbulent fluctuations simulated in the facility. Both in the wind tunnel and the small-scale 12-Fan WOW these wind characteristics were produced by using spires and roughness elements. It is emphasized in the paper that proper spectral density parameterization is required to simulate turbulent fluctuations correctly. Partial turbulence considering only high frequency part of the turbulent fluctuations spectrum was simulated in the small-scale 12-Fan WOW. For the validation of aerodynamic pressures a series of tests were conducted in both wind tunnel and the small-scale 12-fan WOW facilities on low-rise buildings including two gable roof and two hip roof buildings with two different slopes. Testing was performed to investigate the mean and peak pressure coefficients at various locations on the roofs including near the corners, edges, ridge and hip lines. The pressure coefficients comparisons showed that open-jet testing facility flows with partial simulations of ABL spectrum are capable of inducing pressures on low-rise buildings that reasonably agree with their boundary-layer wind tunnel counterparts.

  • 본 연구는 최소 압력 모사로 엔진 배기가스를 배출시키기 위한 최적 이젝터 크기를 결정하기 위한 것을 목적으로 한다. 실험 챔버로 유입되는 2차 냉각 공기는 유량제어 밸브들과 진공펌프가 장착된 배출구를 통해 엔진배기가스는 분리되어 배출된다. 기존 고도시험 장치와 달리, 본 연구에 제안한 형상은 기존 이젝터의 압력 회복을 개선한 좀 더 작은 포획 면적을 가진 배기 이젝트를 사용하면 가스에 스텔링 챔버로 부터 20% 냉각 공기를 부가하여 배출시키도록 크기가 정해진다. 제안된 형상은 벨마우스 이젝터와 엔진배기 출구의 면적비가 이론적으로 약 1.2를 갖는다. 제안된 형상의 혼합 공기 모사결과에 따르면 큰 에너지는 기존 시스템 비해 좀 더 개선된 압력 회복과 감소된 전력 소모를 같음을 확인하였다.

  • 산업 현장에서 사용되는 배관이나 압력용기의 결함 검출은 시설의 안정적 운용에 기본적이며 중요한 문제이다. 전자 전단 간섭법은 결함 검출에 사용되고 있는 기존의 비 광학적 검사방법에 대한 여러 가지 장점들 뿐 만 아니라 전자 전단 간섭법 외의 다른 광학적 방법보다 외란에 둔감하여 산업 현장 적용성이 비교적 높다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문의 전편 "전자 전단 간섭법을 이용한 압력용기의 내부결함 측정에 관한 연구(I)"에서는 압력 용기에 내부에 존재하는 결함을 검출하는데 전자 전단 간섭법을 적용하여 보았으며 결함부의 변형률을 3차원으로 가시화 하였다. 이에 더하여 본 논문에서는 전편에서 구성한 광학계를 바탕으로 결합의 길이를 구하고 결항의 조건과 가압력 등의 변화를 주어 시스템의 오차를 분석하고 그 측정한계를 규정하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다.

  • 일반적으로 자연상태의 흙은 이방성을 나타내며, 이러한 흙의 이방성이 응력-변형률 거동에 미치는 영향은 매우 크다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 인공신경회로망 모델을 이용하여 압밀응력비 변화에 따른 정규압밀점토의 응력-변형률 거동을 모델링하고 비배수전단강도를 예측하여 보았다. 이때 사용된 신경회로망은 일반화된 델타규칙으로도 불리우는 오차역전파 학습 알고리즘을 이용한 다층신경회로망이다. 신경회로망의 학습은 인공퇴적 점토시료를 이용, 연직압밀응력과 압밀응력비를 다르게 정규압밀시킨후 비배수전단시험을 실시하여 얻어진 시험 결과를 이용하였고, 학습된 신경회로망을 이용하여 학습시 제외되었던 압밀응력비 상태에서의 비배수전단강도를 추론하여 본 결과 예측치와 실측치가 잘 일치하였다. 검토결과 실측치와 추론치 사이에는 결정계수($r^2$) 0.973 이상의 높은 상관관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서, 본 연구결과는 점토의 비배수전단강도를 예측함에 있어서 인공신경회로망모델의 적용 가능성을 보여주었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 기존의 방광 내압 측정의 문제점을 근본적으로 해결할 수 있는 새로운 접근법인 '초음파를 이용한 비침습적 방광 내압 측정 기술'을 제안한다. 제안된 기술은 초음파에 의한 캐비테이션 현상을 이용한다. 즉, 체외에서 조사된 고강도 초음파 펄스에 의해 방광 내에 생성된 기포의 동 특성은 방광 내압에의 영향을 받는다는 물리적인 현상에 근거한다. 본 논문에서는 초음파 방광 내압의 측정 기술의 이론적 기초를 제시하고 및 초기적인 측정 실험을 통해 실현 가능성을 입증했다. 제안된 초음파 방광 압력 측정법은 비침습적이며, 성별, 연령에 관계없이 적용 가능하고, 상시 측정이 가능하여 향후 방광 및 배뇨 장애 관련 진단 및 치료에 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

  • A new earth pressure equation considering the arching effect in $c-{\phi}$ soils was proposed for the accurate calculation of earth pressure on circular vertical shafts. The arching effect and the subsequent load recovery phenomenon occurring due to multi-step excavation were quantitatively investigated through laboratory tests. The new earth pressure equation was verified by comparing the test results with the earth pressures predicted by new equation in various soil conditions. Resulting from testing by using multi-step excavation, the arching effect and load recovery were clearly observed. The test results in $c-{\phi}$ soil showed that even a small amount of cohesion can cause the earth pressure to decrease significantly. Therefore, predicting earth pressure without considering such cohesion can lead to overestimation of earth pressure. The test results in various ground conditions demonstrated that the newly proposed equation, which enables consideration of cohesion as appropriate, is the most reliable equation for predicting earth pressure in both ${\phi}$ soil and $c-{\phi}$ soil. The comparison of the theoretical equations with the field data measured on a real construction site also highlighted the best-fitness of the theoretical equation in predicting earth pressure.

  • Simultaneous pressure and force measurements have been conducted on a stationary box deck section model for two configurations (namely without and with New Jersey traffic barriers) at various angles of incidence. The mean and fluctuating aerodynamic coefficients and pressure coefficients were derived, together with their spectra and with the coherence functions between the pressures and the total aerodynamic forces. The mean aerodynamic coefficients derived from force measurements are first compared with those derived from the integration of the pressures on the deck surface. Correlation between forces and local pressures are determined in order to gain insight on the wind excitation mechanism. The influence of the angle of incidence on the pressure distribution and on the fluctuating forces is also analysed. It is evidenced how particular deck section areas are more responsible for the aerodynamic excitation of the deck.

  • The goals of the paper are to understand the impact damage behavior and identify the effect of surface protective materials on impact resistance in filament wound composite pressure vessels. For these, a series of low velocity impact tests was performed on specimens cutting from the full scale pressure vessel by the instrumented impact testing machine. The specimens are classified into two types, which are with and without surface protective material. The visualization for impact damage by two different impactors is made by metallurgical microscope. Based on the impact force history and damage, the impact resistance parameters were employed,rod its validity in identifying the damage resistance of filament wound composite pressure vessel was reviewed. As the results, the impact resistance of the filament wound composites and its dependency on the surface protective material were evaluated quantitatively

  • A numerical method for the assessment and correction of tunnel wall interference effects on forced-oscillation testing is presented. The method is based on the wall pressure signature method using computed wall pressure distributions. The wall pressure field is computed using unsteady three-dimensional full Navier-Stokes solver for a 70-degree pitching delta wing in a wind tunnel. Approximately-factorized alternate direction implicit (AF-ADI) scheme is advanced in time by solving block tri-diagonal matrices. The algebraic Baldwin-Lomax turbulence, model is included to simulate the turbulent flow effect. Also, dual time sub-iteration with, local, time stepping is implemented to improve the convergence. The computed wall pressure field is then imposed as boundary conditions for Euler re-simulation to obtain the interference flow field. The static computation shows good agreement with experiments. The dynamic computation demonstrates reasonable physical phenomena with a good convergence history. The effects of the tunnel wall in upwash and blockage are analyzed using the computed interference flow field for several reduced frequencies and amplitudes. The corrected results by pressure signature method agree well with the results of free air conditions.

  • Wind tunnel model studies were carried out to determine the wind load distribution on tributary areas near the gable-end of large, low-rise buildings with high pitch planar and curved roof shapes. Background pressure fluctuations on each tributary area are described by a series of uncorrelated modes given by the eigenvectors of the force covariance matrix. Analysis of eigenvalues shows that the dominant first mode contributes around 40% to the fluctuating pressures, and the eigenvector mode-shape generally follows the mean pressure distribution. The first mode contributes significantly to the fluctuating load effect, when its influence line is similar to the mode-shape. For such cases, the effective static pressure distribution closely follows the mean pressure distribution on the tributary area, and the quasi-static method would provide a good estimate of peak load effects.
