In this study, vibration characteristics of offshore wind turbine tower (WTT) with gravity-based foundation (GBF) are identified from dynamic responses under wave-induced excitations. The following approaches are implemented to achieve the objective. Firstly, the operational modal analysis methods such as frequency domain decomposition (FDD) and stochastic subspace identification (SSI) are selected to estimate modal parameters from output-only dynamic responses. Secondly, a GBF WTT model composed of superstructure, substructure and foundation is simulated as a case study by using a structural analysis program, MIDAS FEA. Thirdly, wave pressures acting on the WTT structure are established by nonlinear regular waves which are simulated from a computational fluid software, Flow 3D. Wave-induced acceleration responses of the target structure are analyzed by applying the simulated wave pressures to the GBF WTT model. Finally, modal parameters such as natural frequencies and mode shapes are estimated from the output-only acceleration responses and compared with the results from free vibration analysis. The effect of wave height and period on modal parameter extraction is also investigated for the mode identification of the GBF WTT.

This paper presents the basic research for the design and fabrication of a 3D-printed load cell made of NCPC (nano-carbon piezo-resistive composite). We designed a structure that can resonate at a low frequency range of about 5-6 Hz with ANSYS using sensitivity analysis and a response surface method. The design was verified by fabricating the device with a low-quality commercial 3D printer and ABS filament. We conducted a feasibility test for a commercial sensor using 1000 cyclic load tests at 0.3 Hz in a material testing system. A manufacturing process for the 3D printer filament based on the NCPC was also developed using the nano-composite process.

Low fertility rates and increased life expectancy further exacerbate the process of an aging society. This is also reflected in the gradual increase in the proportion of vulnerable groups in the social population. The demand for improved mobility among vulnerable groups such as the elderly or the disabled has greatly driven the growth of the electric-assisted mobility device market. However, such mobile devices generally require a certain operating capability, which limits the range of vulnerable groups who can use the device and increases the cost of learning. Therefore, autonomous driving technology needs to be introduced to make mobility easier for a wider range of vulnerable groups to meet their needs of work and leisure in different environments. This study uses mini PC Odyssey, Velodyne Lidar VLP-16, electronic device and Linux-based ROS program to realize the functions of working environment recognition, simultaneous localization, map generation and navigation of electric powered mobile devices for vulnerable groups. This autonomous driving mobility device is expected to be of great help to the vulnerable who lack the immediate response in dangerous situations.

This study is a one-group pretest-posttest design to evaluate the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) for patient safety on self-leadership, patient safety competencies, and reflective thinking of nursing students. The research was conducted from March 2 to April 15, 2022, in which 57 nursing students participated. PBL for patient safety was examined in a total of 8 sessions in the order of motivation, problem identification, task performance planning, problem-solving methods, summary and solution, presentation, and evaluation. The following topics of patient safety were selected for each team: nursing records, high-alert medication, medication error and intravenous fluid regulation, blood transfusion care, fall, bedsore, infection control, and pain management. We provided feedback on the learning process and outcomes of nursing students. According to the results, self-leadership showed a statistically significant improvement in self-expectations (t=2.60, p=0.01), goal setting (t=2.84, p<0.01), self-reward (t=3.32, p<0.01), and self-criticism (t=2.32, p=0.02). Patient safety competencies showed a statistically significant improvement in patient safety knowledge (t=13.05, p<0.001) and patient safety skills (t=4.87, p<0.001) but not in reflective thinking. The results prove that PBL for patient safety is an effective teaching-learning strategy to improve self-leadership and patient safety competencies. Future studies must develop and validate specific and long-term teaching-learning methods to improve reflective thinking.

A theoretical method is developed to analyze the free vibration of an elastic annular plate in contact with an ideal liquid. The displacement potential functions of the contained liquid are expressed as a combination of the Bessel functions that satisfy the Laplace equation and the liquid boundary conditions. The compatibility condition along the interface between the annular plate and the contained liquid is taken into account to consider the fluid-structure coupling. The dynamic displacement of the wet annular plate is assumed to be a combination of dry eigenfunctions, allowing for prediction of the natural frequencies using the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The study investigates the effect of radial liquid boundary conditions on the natural frequencies of the wet annular plate, considering four types of liquid bounding: outer container bounded, outer and inner bounded, inner bounded, and radially unbounded. The proposed theoretical method is validated by comparing the predicted wet natural frequencies with those obtained from finite element analysis, showing excellent accuracy. The results indicate that the radial liquid bounding effect on the natural frequencies is negligible for the axisymmetric vibrational mode, but relatively significant for the mode with one nodal diameter (n =1) and no nodal circle (m' = 0). Furthermore, the study reveals that the wet natural frequencies are the largest for the plate with an inner bounded cylinder among the radial liquid boundary cases, regardless of the vibration mode.

스마트 컨테이너 제어를 위해서는 컨테이너 내부에 센서가 필요하나, 센서의 개수가 증가하면 비용 및 시스템 부하가 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics)를 이용하여 얻은 컨테이너 내부 온도 데이터와 센서 위치 최적화 알고리즘을 이용하여 컨테이너 내부 모니터링을 위한 최적의 센서 위치 결정 방법론을 제시한다. CFD 상용 SW로 컨테이너 내·외부 상황을 가정하여 내부 온도 데이터를 추출하고, 이를 바탕으로 내부 상태를 대표하는 공간들을 구분한다. 컨테이너 내벽에 부착된 센서가 탐지할 수 있는 능력을 탐지 거리 및 각도의 수식들로 나타내어 각 수식을 조합하여 센서의 탐지 능력을 수치화하고, 이 수치에 따라 균등하게 분포된 센서 위치 후보군 중, 선별된 공간을 탐지하는 센서 위치를 최적화하여 효율적인 컨테이너 제어를 위한 여건을 마련한다.

This study investigates the application of supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO₂) direct-cycle micro modular reactors (MMRs) in primary frequency control (PFC), which is a scenario characterized by significant load fluctuations that has received less attention compared to secondary load-following. Using a modified GAMMA + code and a deep neural network-based turbomachinery off-design model, the authors conducted an analysis to assess the behavior of the reactor core and fluid system under different PFC scenarios. The results indicate that the acceptable range for sudden relative electricity output (REO) fluctuations is approximately 20%p which aligns with the performance of combined-cycle gas turbines (CCGTs) and open-cycle gas turbines (OCGTs). In S-CO₂ direct-cycle MMRs, the control of the core operates passively within the operational range by managing coolant density through inventory control. However, when PFC exceeds 35%p, system control failure is observed, suggesting the need for improved control strategies. These findings affirm the potential of S-CO₂ direct-cycle MMRs in PFC operations, representing an advancement in the management of grid fluctuations while ensuring reliable and carbon-free power generation.

MRP유래 육류 향미제의 향미 증강을 위하여 리보오스와 저 Glu 소맥글루텐 산 가수분해물을 기본 기질로 한 향미 조성물에 온도와 압력 조건별로 추출한 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획을 첨가하여 향미제를 제조하였다. 이렇게 제조된 육류 향미제의 SMart nose를 이용한 향기패턴과 관능적 특성을 비교분석하여 향 특성이 우수한 육류 향미제를 개발하고자 하였다. Lard SC-$CO_2$분획 추출시 $40^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 추출 수율이 증가하지 않았으며, 추출온도를 $40^{\circ}C$로 고정하여 30-60 MPa의 압력에서 추출하였을 때 40 MPa 이상에서 추출효율이 크게 증가하였다. 추출된 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획들의 SMart nose를 이용한 향기패턴 분석을 실시한 결과, $40^{\circ}C$에서 원료 lard와 30 MPa에서 추출한 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획의 향기패턴은 40 MPa 이상의 압력에서 추출한 분획들과 구별되었으나 40 MPa 이상의 압력에서 추출한 분획들은 서로 유사한 향기패턴을 나타내었다. 그러나 40 MPa 이상 압력 추출 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획은 다른 flavor전구체와 반응시켰을 때 다른 전구체들과의 상호반응을 통해 뚜렷한 향기패턴의 차이를 나타내었다. 관능검사 결과 MRP based 육류향미제의 전체적 기호도는 $40^{\circ}C$, 50 MPa에서 추출한 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획을 첨가한 MRP based meat flavor과 $40^{\circ}C$, 60 MPa에서 추출한 lard SC-$CO_2$ 분획첨가 MRP based meat flavor가 가장 높게 나타났다. 따라서 육류 향 증강 MRP based meat flavor의 전구체로 lard를 초임계 추출하기 위한 최적 조건은 $40^{\circ}C$에서 압력을 50 및 60 MPa로 이 조건에서 추출시 높은 경제성과 관능적 우수성이 확보된 육류 향미제 생산이 가능하다고 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 80k Bulk carrier의 저항성능 향상을 목적으로 선미부에 1개의 핀을 부착해 선미 유동을 제어하였고, 저항성능 및 반류의 변화를 분석하였다. 부착된 핀은 직사각형 단면을 가지며, 길이와 폭, 두께는 고정된 채 길이 및 흘수 방향 부착 위치와 유선에 대한 각도만 변화가 있었다. 나선 및 핀이 부착된 선체에 대한 모형 스케일에서의 CFD 해석이 수행되었고, 그 결과를 실선 확장 후 비교하였다. 핀은 프로펠러로 유입되는 빌지 볼텍스의 경로를 선미 트랜섬 쪽으로 변화시켰고, 이는 프로펠러 상부와 선미부의 압력을 증가시켰다. 이로 인해 선체의 압력저항 및 전 저항이 감소되었으며, 감소율은 핀의 부착 위치가 선미 및 선저와 가까울수록 높았다. 또한 핀은 공칭반류를 감소시켰는데 핀의 각도가 커질수록 반류의 변화가 컸고, 전 저항 저감률은 최대가 되는 특정 각도까지만 비례하였다. 대상 선박에 단일 핀을 부착했을 시의 최대 전 저항 저감률은 약 2.1 %였고, 선미로부터 수선간장의 12.5%, 선저로부터 흘수의 10 % 위치에 14°의 각도로 부착됐을 때이다.
