Deep learning, which has recently shown excellent performance, has a problem that the amount of computation and required memory are large. Model compression is very useful because it saves memory and reduces storage size while maintaining model performance. Model compression methods reduce the number of edges by pruning weights that are deemed unnecessary in the calculation. Existing weight pruning methods using ADMM construct an optimization problem by a layer-by-layer addition of pre-defined removal-ratio constraints. Decomposing into two subproblems through the ADMM process, one can solve them through gradient descent and projection. However, the layer-by-layer removal ratios must be structurally specified, causing a sharp increase in training time due to a large number of parameters, and hardly feasible to use for large models that actually require weight pruning. Our proposed method performs weight pruning, producing similar performance, by setting a global removal ratio for the entire model without prior knowledge of structural characteristics in order to solve the shortcomings of the existing ADMM weight-pruning methods. To effectively avoid performance degradation, the method removes a relatively small number of previous layers in charge of feature extraction. Experiments show high-quality performance, not necessarily setting layer-by-layer removal ratios. Additionally, experiments increasing layers yield an insight for feature extraction in pruned layers. The experiment of the proposed method to the LeNet-5 model using MNIST data results in a higher compression ratio of 99.3% outperforming those of other existing algorithms. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in YOLOv4, an object detection model requiring substantial computation.

In this study, in order to manufacture STS 316L seamless pipes with 18mm, 25mm, and 42mm diameters that can be used for high pressure, we intend to make predictions through design and finite element analysis and produce real objects. It was measured to have the highest hardness value in the deformed part, and it is expected to be due to work hardening. It has been interpreted that plastic deformation does not occur up to 1,000bar for STS 316L seamless pipes with a diameter of 18mm and 25mm, but plastic deformation occurs at 900bar or more in STS 316L seamless pipes with a diameter of 42mm.

The new thermal management models of linear compressors have been recently reported. These models adopt the simplified transient flow effects to shorten the excessive analysis time. Among the unsteady flow effects of the linear compressor, the effect of the gap flow between the compressor housing and the body due to the body vibration on the heat transfer performance was studied in this paper. For this study, a numerical analysis for the unsteady axisymmetric flows was performed by using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). The results show that the high-speed refrigerant flows occurred in the gap between the compressor housing and the body, which contribute to increasing the heat transfer from high temperature refrigerants in the housing to the outside air. In addition, as the gap decreases, the refrigerant flow rate through the gap increases and the heat transfer rate increases as well.

In this paper, the performance characteristics of a cryogenic refrigeration system used in fields such as HMR(Home Meal Replacement) that require ultra-low temperatures of -50℃ using natural refrigerants according to the recent enforcement of the Atmosphere Environment Conservation Act were investigated. For this purpose, a 2-stage compression refrigeration system using R744(CO2) and a cascade refrigeration system using R747/R404A and R747/R717(NH3) were applied. The COP(coefficients of performance) of each refrigeration system were compared according to changes in evaporation and condensation temperature, subcooled and superheated degree. Although the coefficient of performance of the 2-stage compression refrigeration system using R744 was superior to that of the cascade refrigeration system, 2-stage refrigeration system was considered that various problems should be solved in practical terms. In addition, the COP of R744/R717 for various operating conditions showed similar results to R744/R404A, so the possibility of alternativeness could be confirmed in the cascade refrigeration system.

Accurate and effective powder compaction analyses are performed for brittle materials such as graphite, utilized as a solid lubricant, by using the discrete element method (DEM). The reliability of the DEM analysis is confirmed by comparing the results of graphite powder compaction analyses using the DEM particle bonding contact model and particle non-bonding contact model with those from the powder compaction experiment under the same conditions. To improve the characteristics, the parameters influencing the compaction properties of the metal-graphite mixtures are explored. The compressibility increases as the size distribution of the graphite powder increases, where the shape of the graphite particles is uniform. The improved compaction characteristics of the metal-graphite (bonding model) mixtures are further verified by the stress transmission and compressive force distribution between the top and bottom punches. It is confirmed that the application of graphite (bonding model) powders resulted in improved stress transmission and compressive force distribution of 24% and 85%, respectively.

Concrete masonry prisms are strengthened with steel fiber-reinforced mortar (SFRM) overlay and tested for compressive and diagonal tension strength. Masonry prisms are produced in poor condition considering standard workmanship for masonry buildings in Korea. Amorphous steel fibers are adopted for SFRM, and appropriate mixing ratios of SFRM are derived considering constructability and strength. Masonry prisms are strengthened with different fiber volume ratios, while numerous strengthened faces and additional reinforcing meshes are produced for compression and diagonal tension tests. Compression and diagonal tension strength are increased by up to 122% and 856%, respectively, and the enhancement effect for diagonal tension strength was superior compared to compression strength. Finally, the test results and strength prediction equations based on existing literature and regression analysis are compared.

Refrigerators used in homes occupy a large portion of the power consumption. In addition, most of the power consumption of the refrigerator is used by the compressor. Therefore, it is necessary to study on the improvement of compressor efficiency to save energy. In this study, the suction system was changed to improve the efficiency of the linear compressor. For this, numerical analysis was performed by linking the 1 dimensional lumped model and the 2 dimensional axisymmetric CFD model. The numerical analysis results were also compared with the experimental results. As a result of the numerical analysis, the model with modified suction system increased EER by about 0.25% compared to the basic model, which was also confirmed by experiment.

The mechanical properties and microstructures of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN)-reinforced cement composites are experimentally studied for three and seven curing days. Various sizes (5, 10, and 18 μm) and concentrations (0.1%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1.0%) of h-BN are dispersed by the tip ultrasonication method in water and incorporated into the cement composite. The compressive strength of the h-BN reinforced cements increases by 40.9%, when 0.5 wt% of 18 μm-sized h-BN is added. However, the compressive strength decreases when the 1.0 wt% cement composite is added, owing to the aggregation of the h-BNs in the cement composite. The microstructural characterization of the h-BN-reinforced cement composite indicates that the h-BNs act as bridges connecting the cracks, resulting in improved mechanical properties for the reinforced cement composite.

본 논문은 철계형상기억합금(Fe-SMA) 나선철근을 이용한 기둥의 횡구속 효과를 평가한 실험적 연구를 보고한다. 실험을 위해 사전변형 4%의 5mm × 5mm의 Fe-SMA 나선철근으로 구속된 150mm × 150mm ×300mm의 원형 실험체가 제작되었다. 실험변수는 Fe-SMA 나선철근의 피치(0mm, 80mm, 60mm, 40mm), Fe-SMA 나선철근의 활성화 유무(활성화, 비활성화)를 고려하였다. Fe-SMA 나선철근 활성화를 위해 소성로를 사용하여 목표온도 140℃까지 가열하였다. 실험체의 온도가 상온에 도달한 후 만능재료시험기를 이용하여 1축 압축실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과를 통해 Fe-SMA 나선철근을 활성화하여 능동적 횡구속압이 작용된 실험체의 최대응력과 최대응력 발현 시의 변형률은 활성화하지 않은 실험체에 비해 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 나선철근 피치의 감소로 인해 능동적 구속압이 증가함에 따라 최대응력과 연성지수가 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 보강 간격이 40mm인 활성화된 나선철근으로 구속된 실험체는 최대하중 도달 후 하중이 유지 및 증가하는 변형경화가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 벨크로를 이용하여 콘크리트 공시체의 압축거동시 구속합축효과를 검토하였다. 벨크로(Velcro)는 갈고리 모양의 후크(Hook)와 고리모양의 루프(Loop)가 물리적으로 결합하여 접착력을 가지는 제품으로 다양한 형태를 가지고 있다. 벨크로 보강 공법은 접착제를 사용하지 않아 쉽고 빠른 시공이 가능하여 공사비가 낮고 시공 시 편리한 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 벨크로로 횡 구속된 콘크리트 압축부재에 대하여 보강면적변화에 따른 벨크로 횡구속 콘크리트 부재의 압축거동에 대하여 연구하였다. 벨크로로 보강된 시편의 압축거동을 조사하기 위하여 횡구속 콘크리트 시편을 제작, 보강면적변화에 따른 횡 구속 성능을 평가하였다. 보강면적은 50%, 75%, 100%로 설계하였다. 실험 결과 벨크로 보강에 의한 압축 강도 증가는 크게 증가하지 않았다. 또한 보강 전과 비교하여 구속 효과의 강도 증가도 미미했습니다. 그러나 항복점 이후의 거동에서는 연성 거동이 나타 났다. 본 연구를 통해 Velcro를 이용한 콘크리트 보강재 개발에 필요한 기본 정보로 활용할 수 있습니다.
