  • 고체 추진기관이 노즐마개에 의해 외기와의 교환이 완벽히 차단된다면, 구조적 안정성은 제작초기 조건인 내부조성간의 잔류반응(Post Cure, Migration etc.), 그리고 자유공간 내의 산소(또는 산화방지제)와 습기(제습제)와의 반응에 종속된다. 이로부터 발생하는 혼합형 고체추진제의 기계적 특성은 매우 복잡하며, 추진기관은 발사직전까지 일교차/년교차의 끊임없는 열하중을 받게 된다. 본 연구에서는 고체 추진기관의 제조공정인 성형오븐에서 출고 후 저장안정화까지의 거동을 고체추진제의 열유변학적 단순특성을 적용하여 신속하게 산출할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 온도제어 가능한 Endurance Test 장치를 고안 제작하였으며, 추가적으로 점진적 응력과 변형율 증가에 따른 비선형 특성도 검토한다.

  • Local wall thinning in pipelines affects the structural integrity of industries, such as nuclear power plants (NPPs). In the present study, a development of pulsed eddy current (PEC) technology that detects the wall thinning of pipelines covered with insulation is reviewed. The methods and experimental results, which have two kinds of probe with a single and double core, were compared. For this purpose, the single and double core probes having one and two excitation coils have been devised, and the differential probe with two Hall sensors has been fabricated to measure the wall thinning in insulated pipelines. The test sample is a stainless steel having different thickness, laminated by plastic insulation to simulate the pipelines in NPPs. The excitation coils in the probe is driven by a rectangular current pulse, the difference of two Hall sensors has been measured as a resultant PEC signal. The peak value of the detected signal is used to describe the wall thinning. The double core probe has better performance to detect the wall thinning covered with insulation; the single core probe can detect the wall thinning up to an insulation thickness of 18 mm, whereas the double probe can detect up to 25 mm. The results show that the double core PEC probe has the potential to detect the wall thinning in an insulated pipeline of the NPPs.

  • The use of skim milk is a strategy to increase goat milk yogurt acceptability. However, it can negatively affect yogurt rheology because fat plays a vital role in dairy structural integrity. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the effects of fat replacers on the rheological, physical, and sensory parameters of low-fat cupuassu goat milk yogurts during refrigerated storage (28 days). Five goat milk yogurts formulations were carried out: whole yogurt (WY), skim yogurt (SY), skim yogurt with inulin (SIY), skim yogurt with maltodextrin (SMY), and skim yogurt with whey protein (SWY). Treatments were subjected to bacterial counts, chemical composition, pH, water holding capacity, instrumental color and texture, rheological and sensory analyses. All samples showed reducing pH values, water holding capacity, and L* and b* value during storage. Regarding texture, the firmness and consistency decreased during storage. On the other hand, the viscosity index significantly increased during refrigerated storage time. Moreover, all treatments exhibited viscoelastic behaviour. In addition, SIY and SMY showed the highest apparent viscosity. Furthermore, SIY, SMY, and SWY formulations exhibited positive sensory scores for appearance, color, aroma, texture, and viscosity. However, the overall acceptability and purchase intention did not differ statistically between WY and the fat-replacement treatments (SIY, SMY, and SWY). These results indicate that fat substitutes improved the quality of skimmed formulations. Thus, inulin and maltodextrin have the potential as functional fat replaces to produce low-fat goat milk yogurts.

  • In current investigation, a novel beam finite element model is formulated to analyze the buckling and free vibration responses of functionally graded porous beams resting on Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundations. The novelty lies in the formulation of a simplified finite element model with only three degrees of freedom per node, integrating both C0 and C1 continuity requirements according to Lagrange and Hermite interpolations, respectively, in isoparametric coordinate while emphasizing the impact of z-coordinate-dependent porosity on vibration and buckling responses. The proposed model has been validated and demonstrating high accuracy when compared to previously published solutions. A detailed parametric examination is performed, highlighting the influence of porosity distribution, foundation parameters, slenderness ratio, and boundary conditions. Unlike existing numerical techniques, the proposed element achieves a high rate of convergence with reduced computational complexity. Additionally, the model's adaptability to various mechanical problems and structural geometries is showcased through the numerical evaluation of elastic foundations, with results in strong agreement with the theoretical formulation. In light of the findings, porosity significantly affects the mechanical integrity of FGP beams on elastic foundations, with the advanced beam element offering a stable, efficient model for future research and this in-depth investigation enriches porous structure simulations in a field with limited current research, necessitating additional exploration and investigation.

  • Rotating beams play a crucial role in representing complex mechanical components that are prevalent in vital sectors like energy and transportation industries. These components are susceptible to the initiation and propagation of cracks, posing a substantial risk to their structural integrity. This study presents a two-stage methodology for detecting the location and estimating the size of an open-edge transverse crack in a rotating Euler-Bernoulli beam with a uniform cross-section. Understanding the dynamic behavior of beams is vital for the effective design and evaluation of their operational performance. In this regard, modal parameters such as natural frequencies and eigenmodes are frequently employed to detect and identify damages in mechanical components. In this instance, the Frobenius method has been employed to determine the first two natural frequencies and corresponding eigenmodes associated with flapwise bending vibration. These calculations have been performed by solving the governing differential equation that describes the motion of the beam. Various parameters have been considered, such as rotational speed, beam slenderness, hub radius, and crack size and location. The effect of the crack has been replaced by a rotational spring whose stiffness represents the increase in local flexibility as a result of the damage presence. In the initial phase of the proposed methodology, a damage index utilizing the slope of the beam's eigenmode has been employed to estimate the location of the crack. After detecting the presence of damage, the size of the crack is determined using a Genetic Algorithm optimization technique. The ultimate goal of the proposed methodology is to enable the development of more suitable and reliable maintenance plans.

  • The study focuses on evaluating the bending creep performance of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) formwork in timber concrete composite (TCC) structures. Timber-framed construction is highlighted for its environmental benefits and seismic resistance, but limitations such as poor tensile strength and brittle failure in bending hinder its use in high-rise buildings. Wood-concrete hybrid structures, particularly those using reinforced concrete slabs with TCC floors, emerge as a potential solution. The research aims to understand the time-dependent behavior of TCC components, considering factors like wood and concrete shrinkage and connection creep. The experiment was conducted in western Japan on the TCC floor designed for use in the Kama-city Inatsuki-higashi compulsory education school. The LVL formwork, measuring 9,000 mm by 900 mm, and concrete is loaded onto it for testing. The creep test periods are examined using concrete loading. It employs a comprehensive creep analysis, adhering to Japanese standards, involving deflection measurements and regression analysis to estimate the creep coefficient. Results indicate substantial deformation after shoring removal, suggesting potential reinforcement needs. The study recommends extending test periods for improved accuracy and recognizing regional climate impacts. Overall, the research provides valuable insights into the potential of LVL formwork in TCC structures, emphasizing safety considerations and paving the way for further experimentation under varied conditions to validate structural integrity.

  • 줄눈콘크리트포장의 줄눈은 슬래브의 온도나 습도변화에 의한 구속변형에 의해 슬래브 내부에 종방향 균열이나 횡방향 균열이 발생하는 것을 제어할 목적으로 설치한다. 이러한 줄눈은 줄눈부에서의 불연속성의 원인이 되어 두 슬래브 사이의 하중전달기능을 감소시키며, 상대적으로 취약함을 지녔기 때문에 손상을 유발시킬 수 있는 가능성을 지니고 있다. 따라서, 줄눈콘크리트포장 줄눈부 손상유형 및 정도에 대한 객관적이고 과학적인 평가가 이루어져야 합리적이고 경제적인 보수방법을 결정할 수 있다. 본 연구는 콘크리트포장 해석프로그램인 ILLI-SLAB를 이용하여 줄눈 평가시스템을 개발하고 이를 FWD 시험결과에 이용하여 줄눈콘크리트포장의 상태를 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 줄눈부에 영향을 줄 수 있는 변수를 선정하고, ILLI-SLAB를 사용하여 민감도 분석을 실시하여 줄눈부에 영향을 크게 미치는 변수를 찾았다. 이러한 변수들을 분석해 줄눈부의 하중전달효과 및 표면 처짐의 관계를 나타내어, 현장에서 FWD를 실시하여 얻은 하중전달효과와 재하위치의 표면 처짐값을 이용해 줄눈콘크리트포장을 평가하였다. 그 결과 노상지지력 계수(K)와 다웰/콘크리트 상호관계 계수(G) 두 변수가 가장 크게 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었으며, 그 임계값은 각각 300 poi와 500,000 lbs/in.임을 알 수 있었다. 이 두 변수와 현장 FWD 시험을 이용하여 줄눈콘크리트포장의 평가시스템을 개발하였으며, 실제 중부고속도로에서 실시한 FWD 측정치를 이용해 평가한 결과 한 개의 줄눈부만이 다웰/콘크리트 상호관계 계수가 임계값보다 낮고, 대부분 줄눈부의 두 인자값이 임계값 이상으로 콘크리트포장 줄눈부가 양호함을 알 수 있었다.이며, 관목층훼손 식생지와 단층구조 식생지는 소극적 복원지로서 군집유형별로 상림내 안정된 다층구조의 자연식생구조를 모델로 하여 생태적 천이발달을 유도하여야 할 것이다. 또한 잔디광장과 조경수식 재지는 적극적 복원지로서 다층구조의 참나무류군집과 낙엽활엽수군집 (개서어나무 우점)을 모델로 하여 관리해야 할 것이다.저서무척추동물이었다. 우점도지수는 가을 0.22~0.51(평균$\pm$표준편차 0.42$\pm$0.09), 겨울 0.31~0.96(0.62$\pm$0.23). 여름 0.30~0.89(0.57$\pm$0.18)였고, 다양도지수는 가을 3.50~4.26(3.80$\pm$0.24), 겨울 1.55~4.50(3 10$\pm$1.01), 여름 1.35~3.77(2.55$\pm$0.69)였다. 홍수 후의 조사에서 노린재류, 딱정벌레류, 복족류 등 이동성이 높거나 완전히 수중생활에 적응한 종류의 회복이 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 전체 조사지점 중에서 우포와 사지포의 평균 다양도지수가 가장 높게 나타나서 그 지역이 양호한 저서무척추동물의 서식처를 형성하고 있음을 시사하였다.한 독창성을 보여주고 있다. 또한 내재된 패션 이미지를 분석해 보면 정확함과 차가움의 의미를 지닌 이지적 이미지와 우주의 질서를 반영하는 상징적 이미지, 복잡한 자연으로부터 간결한 형태로의 경향성이 이루어낸 인공적 이미지를 느낄 수 있었으며, 미래적 이미지와 전통적 이미지의 상반된 개념의 이미지를 같이 내포하고 있음을 추론할 수 있었다. 이와 같이 현대 패션에 표현된 기하학적 패턴은 복식을 조형예술 분야로

  • The purpose of this paper is to verify the structural integrity of a region with numerous penetration-holes in offshore structures such as semi-submersible rig and FPSO. In order to effectively check the yielding and buckling strength of plate members with penetration-holes, a screening analysis program was developed with the FE analysis tool to generate fine meshed model using the theoretical and analysis methods. When a hole is appeared in the plate structure members, the flow of stress is altered such that concentrations of stress form near the hole. Stress concentrations are of concern during both preliminary and detail design and need to be addressed from the perspectives of strength. To configure the geometrical shape, very fine meshed FE analysis is needed as the most accurate method. However, this method is practically impossible to apply for the strength verifications for all perforated plates. In this paper, screening analysis method was introduced to reduce analysis tasks prior to detailed FE analysis. This method is applied to not only the peak stress calculation combined stress concentration factor with nominal stress but also nominal equivalent stress calculation considering cutout effects. The areas investigated by very fine meshed analysis were to be chosen through screening analysis without any reinforcements for penetration-holes. If screening analysis results did not satisfy the acceptance criteria, direct FE analysis method as the 2nd step approach were applied with one of the coarse meshed model considering hole or with the very fine meshed model considering the hole shape and size. In order to effectively perform the local fine meshed analysis, automatic model generating program was developed based on the MSC/PATRAN which is pre-post FE analysis program. Buckling strength was also evaluated by Common Structure Rule (CSR) adopted by IACS as the stress obtained from very fine meshed FE analysis. Due to development of the screening analysis program and automatic FE modeling program, it was able to reduce the design periods and structural analysis costs.

  • 환경 문제로 인해 기존 연료를 대체하는 천연가스의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라, 액화천연가스 운반선의 화물창이 거대화되면서 화물창 내의 슬로싱 하중이 증가하게 된다. 액화천연가스 화물창의 종류 중 하나인 Mark-III 타입의 1차 방벽은 액화천연가스와 직접적으로 접촉하고 있으며 슬로싱 하중 및 액화천연가스의 자중을 받는다. 슬로싱 하중에 의해 다양한 범위의 하중이 1차 방벽에 지속적으로 작용하며 이로 인해 피로 파괴를 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Mark-III 타입의 1차 방벽을 포함한 단열시스템을 유한요소 모델로 구성하였으며 1차 방벽에 대해 피로수명을 평가하여 피로 특성을 확인하였다. 수치해석을 통해 주응력 범위 및 최대 주응력이 발생하는 위치를 계산하였으며 이를 통해 1차 방벽의 피로수명을 수치적으로 평가하였다. 또한, 다양한 단열시스템 타입에 대해 모델링을 실시하였으며, 피로수명 평가 결과를 통해 1차 방벽의 피로 파괴 안전성을 확보하는 최적의 단열시스템에 대해 제안하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 Mark-III 타입 1차 방벽의 피로 기반 설계에 있어 활용가치가 있을 것으로 판단된다.
