현재의 초음파 두께 측정에 기반한 배관 감육 검사 속도를 개선하기 위해 배관 쉘 진동 모드의 고유 진동수 변화를 이용한 감육 검사 기법을 제안하였다. 감육이 발생한 부위의 축방향 수직 단면의 두께는 원주 방향을 따라 불균일하게 변화하는데, 두께가 균일한 경우에 비해 쉘 모드의 고유 진동수가 감소하거나 두 개 이상으로 분기됨을 확인하였다. 배관의 고유 진동수는 한 번의 측정으로도 평가할 수 있으므로, 제안한 방법을 이용하면 축방향 수직 단면의 평균 두께 변화를 빠르게 확인할 수 있어 초음파 두께 측정 방식에 비해 신속한 감육 검사가 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 제안 기법의 원리를 설명하고, 2차원과 3차원 감육 배관 모델 및 시편을 이용한 전산 해석과 실험을 통해 제안한 기법의 적용성을 검증하였다.

The conventional disposal methods of waste tires are harmful to the environment. Moreover, the recycling/reuse of waste tires in domestic and industrial applications is limited due to parent product's quality control and environmental concerns. Additionally, the recycling industry often prefers powdered rubber particles (<0.60 mm). However, the processing of waste tires yields both powdered and coarser (>0.60 mm) size fractions. Reprocessing of coarser rubber requires higher energy increasing the product cost. Therefore, the waste tire rubber (WTR) less favored by the recycling industry is encouraged for use in construction products as one of the environment-friendly disposal methods. In this study, WTR fiber >0.60 mm size fraction is collected from the industry and sorted into 0.60-1.18, 1.18-2.36-, and 2.36-4.75-mm sizes. The effects of different fiber size fractions are studied by incorporating it as fine aggregates at 10%, 20%, and 30% in the self-compacting rubberized concrete (SCRC). The experimental investigations are carried out by performing fresh and hardened state tests. As the fresh state tests, the slump-flow, T500, V-funnel, and L-box are performed. As the hardened state tests, the scanning electron microscope, compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength tests are conducted. Also, the water absorption, porosity, and ultrasonic pulse velocity tests are performed to measure durability. Furthermore, SCRC's energy absorption capacity is evaluated using the falling weight impact test. The statistical significance of content and size fraction of WTR fiber on SCRC is evaluated using the analysis of variance (ANOVA). As the general conclusion, implementation of various size fraction WTR fiber as fine aggregate showed potential for producing concrete for construction applications. Thus, use of WTR fiber in concrete is suggested for safe, and feasible waste tire disposal.

표면파 탐사는 매우 작은 규모의 초음파 분석부터 지질공학 규모의 분석까지 다양한 분야에서 활용하고 있으며, 특히 천부 지질의 지반 안정성을 평가하는 데 활발히 이용되고 있다. 표면파 탐사는 기본적으로 지표면을 따라 전파하는 표면파의 분산 특성에 기초하여 매질의 전단 속도 분포를 파악하는 탐사법이다. 즉, 지하 구조가 1차원 구조라는 가정 하에 탐사를 수행하는 표면파 탐사는, 진동수와 전파 속도의 관계인 분산곡선을 분석하고 1차원적 역산을 통해 층서구조 속도를 계산하게 된다. 이 논문에서는 천부 지질 조사를 위한 표면파 탐사법의 기초적인 이론부터 전반적인 자료처리 과정을 기술보고를 통해 설명하고자 한다. 먼저, 표면파에 대한 개략적인 설명과 가장 큰 특징 중 하나인 분산 특성에 대하여 설명한 후 일반적인 표면파 자료처리 순서에 대하여 설명하였다. 표면파 탐사법은 인공적인 송신원의 유무에 따라 능동 표면파 탐사법과 수동 표면파 탐사법으로 나눌 수 있으나 이 논문에서는 능동 표면파 탐사법인 CSW, SASW, MASW에 대하여 집중적으로 기술하였다. 수동 표면파 탐사법에 대해서는 다음 기술보고에서 다루고자 한다.

We investigated the effect of ZnO buffer layer on the formation of ZnO thin film by ultrasonic assisted spray pyrolysis deposition. ZnO buffer layer was formed by wet solution method, which was repeated several times. Structural and optical properties of the ZnO thin films deposited on the ZnO buffer layers with various cycles and at various temperatures were investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence spectrum analysis. The structural investigations showed that three-dimensional island shaped ZnO was formed on the bare Si substrate without buffer layers, while two-dimensional ZnO thin film was deposited on the ZnO buffer layers. In addition, structural and optical investigations showed that the crystalline quality of ZnO thin film was improved by introducing the buffer layers. This improvement was attributed to the modulation of the surface energy of the Si surface by the ZnO buffer layer, which finally resulted in a modification of the growth mode from three to two-dimensional.

초음파탐상검사는 그 검사결과가 여타 비파괴검사법에 비해 검사자, 검사장비, 절차서 등 검사 시스템에의 의존도가 높으며, 이중에서도 특히 검사자의 능력과 숙련도에 크게 좌우된다. 따라서 검사결과의 신뢰도를 높이기 위해서는 무엇보다도 검사자에 대해 엄격한 자격인정(Qualification)이 필요하다. 초음파탐상검사는 원자력 발전소 기기의 가동전중검사시 가장 많이 적용하는 체적검사법으로써, 결함검출 및 평가의 신뢰도를 확보하기 위하여 최근 관련 기술기준에서는 검사자에 대해 보다 엄격한 자격인정을 요구함과 아울러 초음파탐상검사 시스템(검사자, 장비, 절차서)에 대한 기량검증(Performance Demonstration)까지를 요구하고 있다. 위의 두 가지 요건을 성공적으로 충족시킬 수 있다면, 초음파탐상기술의 신뢰도는 크게 향상될 것이다. 본고에서는 최근 보다 강화된 원전 가동전중검사 초음파탐상검사 요원의 자격인정요건에 대해 자세히 알아봄으로써 관련 국내 기술기준의 제정과 앞으로 국내 원전 초음파탐상 검사요원에 대한 본 자격인정요건의 적용에 대비코자 하였다. 한편, "초음파탐상검사 시스템에 대한 기량검증 요건"은 초음파탐상 검사요원의 자격인정 요건과 밀접한 관계가 있으므로 다음에 별도로 기술코자 한다.

This paper describes a tomographic imaging technique for evaluating the thickness reduction of a plate-like structure using a noncontact sensor network based on an electromagnetic acoustic transducer that generates shear horizontal plate waves. Because this technique is based on the effect of mode cutoff and time of flight of guided waves caused by a change in thickness, the tomographic image provides information on the presence of defects in the structure. To verify the performance of the method, artificial defects with various thickness reduction ratios were machined in an aluminum plate, and the tomographic imaging results are reported. The results show that the generated tomographic image displays the thickness reductions and can identify their locations. Therefore, the proposed technique has good potential as a tool for health monitoring of the integrity of plate-like structures.

This paper is concerned wi th the generation of the Lamb waves in a non­ferromagnetic plate by a recently-developed orientation-adjustable patch-type magnetostrictive transducer (OPMT) and the dispersion analysis from the measured Lamb waves. OPMT is capable of adjusting wave-propagation orientation only with a single installation on a plate. The mechanics behind the wave generation and measurement by the magnetostrictive phenomenon, the working principle of OPMT is explained and the actual generation and measurement of the Lamb waves were conducted in a 3 mm-thick aluminum plate. For the accurate analysis of the dispersion characteristics of the measured Lamb waves, a modified version of the short-time Fourier transform, known as the dispersion-based short-time Fourier transform, was employed. The results presented in this work would serve as the underlying research for an advanced non-destructive evaluation based on ultrasonic waves.

This study investigated the effect of ultrasound irradiation on the blend of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The blends of PLA/PBAT(50/50) (PBAT50) were prepared in a melt mixer with an ultrasonic device attached. Thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties, morphology, and biodegradability of the sonicated blends were analysed. The viscosity of the sonicated blends was increased by the ultrasound irradiation owing to the strong interaction. The morphology of the sonicated blends was significantly dependent on the duration o the ultrasound irradiation. For PBAT50, the phase size reduction was maximized when the blends were ultrasonically irradiated for 30 sec. At longer duration of ultrasound irradiation, the PBAT phase underwent flocculation. Measurement of the tensile properties showed an increased breakage tensile stress and an enhanced Young's modulus when the blends were properly irradiated. This improvement was ascribed to better adhesion between the PLA matrix and the PBAT domain and to better dispersion of the PBAT phase. However, the tensile properties were maximized after excessive energy irradiation, which was ascribed to an emulsifying effect leading to coalescence of the PBAT phase. Impact strength was increased to reach a peak with the ultrasound irradiation, and was higher than the untreated sample for all sonicated samples due to the difference of failure mechanism between the tensile test and the impact test.

Unlike fossil-or nuclear fuel-based power generation, wind power generation using inexhaustible wind energy is a pollution-free, hazardless power generation method. In this study, ultrasound thermography is used for fabricating specimens of wind power generator bearings and wind power generator supplement flanges, and an optimally designed ultrasound horn and ultrasound excitation system are used for detecting damage to part materials of a wind power generation setup. In addition, thermal flow analysis and ultrasonic thermography imaging are comparatively analyzed for improving the detection reliability in terms of surface and internal defects of part materials and for verifying the developed system's field applicability and reliability.
