Pseudo-static approach has been conventionally applied for the design of gravity type quay walls. In this method, seismic coefficient (kh), expressed in terms of acceleration due to gravity, is used to convert the real dynamic behavior to an equivalent pseudo-static inertial force for seismic analysis and design. Therefore, the calculation of an appropriate kh considering frequency characteristics of input earthquake is critical for representing the real dynamic behavior. However, the definitions of kh, which is used for simplified analysis in Korea, focuses only on convenience that is easy to use, and the frequency characteristics of input earthquake are not reflected in the kh definitions. This paper evaluates the influences of the frequency characteristics of input earthquake on kh by initially reviewing the kh definitions in the existing codes of Japan for port structures and then by performing a series of dynamic centrifuge tests on caisson gravity quay walls of different earthquake input motions (Ofunato, Hachinohe). A review of the existing codes and guidelines has shown that the kh values are differently estimated according to the frequency characteristics of input earthquake. On the other hand, based on the centrifuge tests, it was found that the permanent displacements of wall are more induced when long-period-dominant earthquake is applied.

We measured the target strength according to the swimming tilt angle and size change for Pacific herring at the frequency of 70 kHz as the basic database in order to estimate its abundance as well as density in the survey area using the hydroacoustical method. The number of the sample used in this study was 14 individuals, and its size distribution by fork length ranged between 20.3 and 29.8 cm and wet weight was measured between 187.6 and 269.9 g. The variation of TS according to the swimming angle (-30~30°) was measured between 10.3 and 18.8 dB in frequency range, the highest value was measured at head-down of Pacific herring in the tilt angle range between 5 and 9 deg. of its swimbladder. The relationship between TS–FL of herring was the same as TS = 20log10 (FL) – 66.79 when its swimming tilt angle in the daytime (3.8 ± 6.0°) and nighttime (-3.2 ± 13.6°), respectively.

Properties of aggregation and spatial distribution of fish were examined based on three lines in the South Sea of Korea using three frequencies (18, 38, and 120 kHz) of a scientific echosounder. The vertical distribution of fish was displayed using acoustic biomass namely nautical area scattering coefficient (NASC). As a result, at 120 kHz high NASC showed from water surface to 20 meters in deep while at 18 and 38 kHz very high NASC presented in 70 ~ 90 meters in depth, especially at line 3. Among three lines, the line 2 had lowest NASC. The horizontal distribution of fish using three frequencies together exhibited high NASC between the eastern South Sea and center of South Sea. In especial, NASC (801 ~ 1,920 m2/n·mile2) was observed along coastal waters from Busan to Tongyeong, Geoje, and Namhae. In regard with the property of aggregation of fish schools, the volume back-scattering strength (SV) of three lines presented close each other, however, the range of SV in the line 2 was shortest (-53.5 ~ -43.4 dB). The average distributional depth was deep in the order of L3 (32.8 ± 9.0 m), L1 (45.2 ± 9.5m), L2 (49.7 ± 5.6 m). The average altitude was high in the order of L3 (13.4 ± 10.3 m), L1 (17.0 ± 12.6 m), L2 (56.7 ± 5.6 m). The average length, thickness, and area were large in the order of L1, L3, and L2. This means that small sized fish schools were distributed near water surface in the line 2 while relatively large and similar sized fish aggregations between line 1 and line 3 appeared however, fish schools at line 3 had lower distributional depth and smaller compared to those at line 1. Acoustic data were visualized for demonstrating the entire circumstances of survey area. Additionally, there was no correlation between acoustic and trawl results.

One of the important advantages of Thermosonics is that it can be applied to complex structures such as a turbine blade as a convenient and quick screening test method. For a reliable thermosonic test, the vibrational characteristics of the system comprising the tested structure and the clamp at ultrasonic frequency range should be identified. Therefore, this study presented the analysis results of frequency response functions and mode shapes of the turbine blade and clamp system and investigate the possibility of the reliable excitation system for the thermosonic test.

노면의 요철은 차량의 동역학적 거동에 의해 시트의 진동 또는 움직임을 유발하여 탑승자의 승차감을 저해시키는 요인이 된다. 차량의 동역학적 거동을 단순화한 모델 중 IRI(International Roughness Index)를 비롯하여 널리 적용되고 있는 Quarter-car모델은 그림 1과 같이 네 바퀴 차량의 1/4 모델로서, 현가상질량(sprung mass)의 수직 변위를 계산하는 모델이다. 그러나 실제 차량의 거동은 수직 방향 거동 외에도 네 바퀴의 거동 차이에 의해 그림 2와 같이 중심축에 대한 회전 운동을 하며, 이로 인해 시트에 앉아 있는 탑승자의 회전진동을 유발한다. 탑승자의 진동방향은 3축 병진운동과 각 축의 회전운동으로 그 림 3과 같이 정의할 수 있으며, 직진 주행 중인 차량으로 가정할 경우 z축에 대한 회전운동인 yaw 거동은 발생하지 않는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 roll, pitch 회전거동과 연직 z방향 거동에 노출된 탑승자의 승차 감을 모사, 평가하기 위해 그림 4와 같이 시뮬레이터를 개발하였다. 또한 sin파형에 반응하는 시뮬레이터 패널 평가결과를 바탕으로 인체에 민감하게 영향을 주는 차량 거동요소의 주파수 특성을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이터 분석을 통하여 roll, pitch 및 z방향 거동의 특성에 따라 시뮬레이터에 탑승한 패널의 정성 적인 승차감 평가가 달라지는 것을 그림 5와 같이 확인하였다. roll과 pitch거동의 경우 8Hz 대역에서, z방향 거동은 4~8Hz대역에서 패널의 승차감에 가장 민감한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 양호- 불량의 경계에 해당하는 거동특성을 비교한 결과, 동일한 회전변위에 대해서 전반적으로 pitch의 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 향후 본 연구결과를 토대로 승차감을 정량적으로 표현할 수 있는 방안을 마련할 계획이며, 도로이용자에게 보다 우수한 승차감을 제공하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Acoustic surveys using a scientific echosounder and trawl surveys were concurrently carried out in between Geoje and Tongyeong of the South Sea by season. The anchovy schools were identified by trawling in each station and used for frequency response analysis. Frequency responses of anchovy schools by season and species composition ratio were examined using multi-frequencies (18, 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz). The frequency response r(f), is one of the acoustic characteristics which means the volume back-scattering strength ratio between a reference frequency and other frequencies. In spring, the r(f) of anchovy schools decreased with increased frequency, with the exception of 120kHz. While, in winter, the r(f) continuously decreased inversely proportional to the increase in frequency. Frequency response of anchovy schools presented a distinctive difference between spring and winter, however it did not different in spife of different species composition ratios in schools.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to determine the optimal frequency of ground penetrating radar (GPR) testing for detecting the voids under the pavement. METHODS : In order to determine the optimal frequency of GPR testing for void detection, a full-scale test section was constructed to simulate the actual size of voids under the pavement. Voids of various sizes were created by inserting styrofoam at varying depths under the pavement. Subsequently, 250-, 500-, and 800-MHz ground-coupled GPR testing was conducted in the test section and the resulting GPR signals were recorded. The change in the amplitude of these signals was evaluated by varying the GPR frequency, void size, and void depth. The optimum frequency was determined from the amplitude of the signals. RESULTS: The capacity of GPR to detect voids under the pavement was evaluated by using three different ground-coupled GPR frequencies. In the case of the B-scan GPR data, a parabolic shape occurred in the vicinity of the voids. The maximum GPR amplitude in the A-scan data was used to quantitatively determine the void-detection capacity. CONCLUSIONS: The 250-MHz GPR testing enabled the detection of 10 out of 12 simulated voids, whereas the 500-MHz testing allowed the detection of only five. Furthermore, the amplitude of GPR detection associated with 250-MHz testing is significantly higher than that of 500-MHz testing. This indicates that 250-MHz GPR testing is well-suited for the detection of voids located at depths ranging from 0.5~2.0 m. Testing at frequencies lower than 250 MHz is recommended for void detection at depths greater than 2 m.

본 논문에서는 전동기 구동장치를 선정하여 리액터 용량 및 종류, 부하의 크기에 따라 고조파 왜형률 변화추이를 검토하여 선박 및 해양플랜트에 적용 가능한 최적의 용량선정 근거를 마련하였다. AC라인 리액터와 DC링크 리액터는 가변주파수 구동장치 입력전류의 고조파를 크게 저감시키는 역할을 하며, 동일한 효과를 얻기 위한 DC링크 리액터의 인덕턴스가 AC라인 리액터 인덕턴스의 약 1.7배가 되어야 한다는 것을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 고찰하였다. 소프터웨어 PSIM을 활용하여 각 상황에 따른 전류 고조파 왜형률을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 Euler-Bernoulli Beam(EB-beam) 및 신속 Fourier 변환을 이용하여 수치분석적 빔 모델 및 Co-rotational plane beam EDISON program(CR-beam)을 이용한 빔 모델의 가진주파수 변화에 따른 외팔보의 자유단 진동 연구를 수행하였다. 위의 두 빔 모델에서의 끝단에서는 진동이 시간이 지남에 따라 감소하다가 정상상태에 이르는 것을 확인하였다. 끝단에서 가진주파수가 증가함에 따라 구조적 감쇠에 의해 변위이 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 감쇠를 고려한 EB-beam과 CR-beam가 정상상태로 진입하는 경향이 비슷하나, 가진주파수는 정상상태가 나타나는 시간과 독립적임을 제시한다.

안테나 기술 및 데이터 처리 기술의 발전으로 인하여 비파괴 시험 장비인 GPR(Ground Penetration Radar; 지표투과탐사장비) 장비의 적용이 확대되고 있다. GPR 장비는 송신기에서 지표면으로 전자기파 를 송출하고, 송출된 전자기파가 매질의 유전율에 따라 수신기로 반사되거나 회절 또는 산란되어 돌아오 는 시간 영역에서의 특성에 기초하여 지표 하부의 층구조 및 매설물을 조사할 수 있는 장비이다. 이러한 GPR 장비는 현재 포장층 두께조사, 지하 동공 및 지질조사, 터널 라이닝 및 구조조사 등 여러 분야에서 적용되고 있다. 외국에서는 GPR 장비의 적용분야 가운데 도로포장분야에서 GPR 장비를 포장층 두께 측정, 박리의 위 치조사, 포장층 밀도예측, 다우웰바 탐지 등에 적용할 수 있다고 알려져 있으나 아직 많이 활성화되어 있 지는 않은 상황이다. 국내에서는 일반국도 도로포장관리시스템(Pavement Management System; PMS) 에서 주로 포장층 두께 측정을 위해 GPR 장비를 활용하면서 그 적용범위를 확대하고자 노력하고 있으며, 500MHz 주파수의 접촉식 GPR 장비와 1.0GHz 주파수의 비접촉식 GPR 장비가 사용되고 있다. 최근 사회적으로 이슈화되고 있는 도로함몰 예방을 위한 동공 조사에 현재 도로포장분야에서 활용중인 GPR 장비를 적용하기 위해서는 먼저 각 주파수별 측정 깊이의 파악이 필요하다. 왜냐하면 측정 주파수가 높으면 해상도는 좋아지지만 전자기파의 측정 깊이가 작아지고, 측정 주파수가 낮으면 해상도는 낮아지지 만 전자기파의 측정 깊이가 커지기 때문이다. 따라서 주파수별로 어느 정도 깊이까지 전자기파가 침투할 수 있는지, 측정된 데이터의 해상도가 어떻게 나타나는지 확인하여 사용목적에 적합하게 사용할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 포장표면에서부터 깊이별로 스티로폼으로 모사한 동공을 설치하고 250MHz, 500MHz, 800MHz 주파수의 접촉식 GPR 장비와 1.0GHz 주파수의 비접촉식 GPR 장비를 사용하여 동일한 구간을 측정한 후, 각각의 B-scan 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과, 포장층 두께 정도의 깊이를 조사하기 위해서는 1.0GHz 주파수의 비접촉식 안테나를 사용하는 것이 가능하지만, 1.5m 깊이 부근까지의 동공 여부를 조 사하기 위해서는 500MHz 주파수 정도의 접촉식 안테나를 사용해야 하는 것으로 나타났다.

Target strength (TS) information is an important parameter that estimates the detection, distribution, and abundance of Aurelia aurita. In order to investigate the biological TS of jellyfish, some factors such as size (bell diameter), tilt angle, pulsation, and symbion should be known. In the ex situ TS measurements, the tilt angles and pulsation from synchronized swimming behavior of four live A. aurita (bell diameters in the air: 54.2 ~ 94.2 mm) were measured with the acoustic data at 70 kHz. The reduced target strength (RTS) of A. aurita was found to change ranged from 13.4 ~ 16.5 dB according to the incidence angles from –30° to 24°. When the change rate of bell diameter in the water was 0.2, the TS value showed a 7.2 dB change. These results could be utilized as an important data to understand the acoustic characteristic scattering of A. aurita.

The multi-frequency characteristics of anchovy schools were investigated using six acoustic lines collected at 38 and 120 kHz while a primary trawl survey was conducted from 14 April and 18 April of 2014 in off the coast of Tongyeong and Geo–je. Here, the frequency characteristics mean ΔMVBS that is the difference of Mean Volume Backscattering Strength at two frequencies. To use the characteristics effectively, the optimal cell size (10×2 m) was determined by examining several different cell sizes in consideration with the shapes of fish schools and the ΔMVBS pattern. By examining 6 histograms of ΔMVBS, afternoon groups were occupied more in the ΔMVBS range of –6~–4 dB than that of –4~–2 dB, comparing to morning groups. The ΔMVBS range of the morning groups was between –16.9 dB and 11.6 dB, and that of the afternoon groups –16.7 dB and 13.0 dB. The average and standard deviation were –3.9±3.6 dB in the morning and –4.1±3.4 dB in the afternoon, suggesting that morning groups were 2 dB higher than afternoon groups. The ΔMVBS range of all anchovy schools regardless of morning and afternoon was between –16.9 dB and 13.0 dB, their average ΔMVBS was –4.1±3.5 dB. The characteristics can support to identify anchovy species in the waters where multiple fish species are distributed. It is hoped that this study presents the availability and benefit of acoustic data from a primary trawl survey.
