층면구조 안정성 다이어그램은 층면구조가 주어진 입도와 유속에서 나타나는 층면구조의 모양과 크기를 지시한다. 이 다이어그램은 대부분 수조실험에 의해 획득한 실험 데이터를 기반으로 작성되었다. 일반적으로, 수조실험은 입자의 크기와 유속사이의 관계를 이해하기 위해 분급이 좋고 단일입도의 분포를 보이는 퇴적물을 이용하여 수행되었다. 이 다이어그램에 의하면, 세립사와 중립사 퇴적물 표면에서 유속이 빨라지면서, 평행층에서 연흔이 형성되기 시작한다. 이 연구의 목적은 층면구조 안정성 다이어그램의 결과가 실험을 통하여 잘 재현되는지를 확인하고, 분급이 좋은 퇴적물과 달리 분급이 불량한 경우인 이정 입도 분포를 보이는 사질 퇴적물에서도 잘 재현되는지 확인하는 것이다. 본 연구 실험 결과는 2D 연흔이나 3D 연흔 층면구조가 형성되기 위해서, 분급이 불량한 퇴적물의 경우에, 분급이 좋은 퇴적물보다 더 높은 유체의 유속과 전단응력이 필요하다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 탄산염 퇴적물은 수력학적 분급작용이 활발하지 않으며, 퇴적물의 구성이 알로켐과 기질로 이루어지는 이정 입도 분포를 보이는 퇴적물로서 일반적으로 분급이 불량한 특징을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 실험의 결과는 탄산염 퇴적물에서 층면구조 형성을 위해 쇄설성 퇴적환경의 퇴적물 보다 더 높은 유속이 필요할 수 있음을 제안하고 있다. 분급이 불량한 퇴적물 입자가 침식되어 이동기 위해 더 높은 에너지와 유속이 필요하다는 것은 분급 효과, 마찰 효과, 안정성 효과, 갑옷 효과 등이 복합적으로 작용한 결과로 설명될 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 예비적 고찰로서, 이어지는 연구를 통해 이러한 현상을 과학적으로 설명하고 입도와 층면구조 형성의 상관성을 보다 정교하게 규명하고자 한다.

Through this study, velocity distribution characteristics of exit section and downstream straight length of square sectional 180° and 90° curved ducts were numerically analyzed with RSM (Reynolds Stress Model) by changing various flow parameters such as air velocity, surface roughness and hydraulic diameter etc. As a result of it, the maximum velocity profiles according to air velocity in 180° and 90° curved ducts were indicated at Y/D=0.8 and X/D=0.7 region. Also, the efficient measuring location in bended duct downstream was able to suggest when the most stable straight duct length in flow deviations were indicated at L/D=30 and L/D=10 region, and the standard deviation characteristics according to hydraulic diameter were mostly indicated at L/D=15∼30 and L/D=10 region considering minimum deviations in the same velocity condition.

저장조에 위치한 사용후핵연료는 가혹한 원자로 조건에 의해 구조적 건전성이 와해되므로 외력에 취약하다. 따라서 운반 및 취급 중 사고 상황이 고려되어야 한다. 극단적인 경우, 핵연료 취급 중 사고로 인해 핵연료 저장조에서 핵연료집합체 낙하 가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 사고 상황 하에서 연료봉 파손 등을 평가하기 위해서 수조에 충돌할 때 발생하는 충돌력을 분석 할 필요가 있다. 이는 핵연료가 수조 바닥에 충돌할 때의 속도를 입력으로 하여 평가될 수 있다. 연료봉이 핵연료 중량 및 부 피의 대부분을 차지하고 있으므로, 연료봉 다발은 수중 항력을 예측하는데 중요한 역할을 한다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 3×3 의 짧은 연료봉 다발을 모델로 사용하여 수중에서 낙하할 때 받는 수력을 계산하였고, 이를 전산모사와의 비교를 통하 여 검증하였다. 본 방법론을 사용후핵연료 건전성 평가에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The effects of drying temperature on the drying characteristics of soybeans at the different position in the dryer with 28.1% (±0.8) of initial moisture content were studied. Drying temperatures varied at 35, 45 and 55ºC, with a constant inlet air velocity (3 m/s). The local air velocities at a position 1, 5, and 9 were 0.150 m/s (±0.012), 0.247 m/ s (±0.018) and 0.795 m/s (±0.036), respectively. The drying rate increased as the local air velocity increased from 0.150 m/s to 0.795 m/s. The cracked grain ratio increased as the drying rate increased. To prevent quality degradation of soybeans during hot-air drying, the local air velocity should be considered. Thin-layer drying models were applied to describe the drying process of soybeans. The Midilli-Kucuk model showed the best fit (R2>0.99). Based on the model parameters, the drying time to achieve the target moisture content (15%) was successfully estimated. The drying time was strongly dependent on the position in the dryer and the drying temperature.

In order to improve seismic safety of nuclear power plant (NPP) structures in high seismicity area, seismic isolation system can be adapted. In this study, friction pendulum system (FPS) is used as the seismic isolation system. According to Coulomb‘s friction theory, friction coefficient is constant regardless of bearing pressure and sliding velocity. However, friction coefficient under actual situation can be changed according to bearing pressure, sliding velocity and temperature. Seismic responses of friction pendulum system with constant friction and various velocity-dependent friction are compared. The velocity-dependent friction coefficients of FPS are varied between lowand fast-velocity friction coefficients according to sliding velocity. From the results of seismic analysis of FPS with various cases of friction coefficient, it can be observed that the yield force of FPS becomes larger as the fast-velocity friction coefficient becomes larger. Also, the displacement response of FPS becomes smaller as the fast-velocity coefficient becomes larger.

Quantitative analysis of termites damage is important in terms of conservation and maintenance of wooden cultural heritage buildings, because termites makes cavities and decreases the section area of wooden structural members. The purpose of this study is to forecast the range and spread of termites damage in the wooden structural members by using ultrasonic pulse velocity method. Ultrasonic pulse velocity has been used as one of non-destructive test to analysis the internal defect by using difference velocity between medium material and cavity. This method would be effective to analysis termites damages. From the result of the ultrasonic velocity test, the loss rate of area effected by termites damage had a strong correlation with ultrasonic velocity. And it is possible to predict the loss rate of area from by termites damage by using regression equation in the case of structural member of fine tree.

Low resolution spectra of Nova Delphini 2013 (V339 Del) in the optical range have been obtained at Bosscha Observatory, Indonesia during its maximum light (V = 4.3). Spectra were observed from August 16 to 27, 2013. The GAO-ITB RTS 20.3 cm telescope, and SBIG DSS-7 spectrograph and SBIG ST-7 XE as the detector have been employed throughout the observations. The spectra show P-Cygni profiles in Balmer, NaI`D' and Fe II lines, from which we determined shell expansion velocities of 1421.6639.18 km/s, 1227.5421.57 km/s and 1402.86 km/s, respectively. Our spectroscopic observations followed the spectral evolution of V339 Del from the pre-maximum phase to early Orion phase. The characteristics of the nova Delphini 2013 resembles those of Fe II-type novae.

본 연구는 온실에 작용하는 풍하중 산정을 위한 설계 풍속을 결정하는데 필요한 자료를 제공하기 위하여 10m이하 높이에서의 풍속을 측정하여 풍속고도분포지수를 산정하고 변화를 분석하였다. 고도에 따른 풍속분포함수 를 결정하기 위한 풍속고도분포지수를 계산하기 위해서 는 5m·s-1 이상의 풍속을 사용하는 것이 타당하다고 판단된다. 농촌 개활지인 부안지역의 고도에 따른 풍속변 화는 지표면으로부터 풍속이 지수함수로 증가하는 우리 나라의 RDC 기준과 일본의 JGHA 기준과 잘 일치하였고 풍속고도분포지수도 0.26으로 기준들에서 제시된 0.25와 거의 동일한 값을 나타내었다. 반면 군위지역의 경우는 풍속고도분포지수가 0.06으로 산정되어 지표면조 도가 클수록 풍속고도분포지수가 증가하는 일반적인 변 화 경향과는 반대로 나타났다. 이는 타워가 주변지대보다 약 2m 가량 더 높은 위치에 설치되었기 때문에 유선의 급격한 변화에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 일반적으로 농촌 개활지에 설치되는 온실의 설계를 위해 적용 할 풍속고도분포로는 우리나라의 RDC기준과 일본의 JGHA기준에서 제시한 풍속고도분포가 가장 타당한 것으로 사료된다. 부안의 경우 오전 7시 경부터 풍속고도 분포지수가 감소하다가 오후 3시경에 최소가 된 후 다시 증가하여 24시경에 일정해지는 것으로 나타나 시간에 따른 풍속고도분포지수의 일반적인 변화경향과 잘 일치하였다. 부안지역은 형상변수가 1.51로 나타나 간척지인 부안지역의 풍속특성이 제주도 연안지역과 유사한 풍속특성을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다.

This study aimed to evaluate the surface area and velocity of center of pressure (COP) during one leg standing by stimulating the sensory system in normal adults. Thirty subjects were enrolled in this study. Subjects were asked to stand on one leg during testing conditions. Testing conditions included 6 different sensory stimulations as follows: eyes opened, eyes closed, eyes opened with vibrator, eyes opened with head-mounted display (HMD), eyes opened with vibrator and HMD, and eyes closed with vibrator. During each testing condition, the surface area and velocity of center of pressure were measured. There were significant differences in the mean surface area and the mean velocity of COP between the “eyes opened” condition and the other five testing conditions (p<.05). However, in the comparison between the “eyes closed” and “eyes opened with HMD” conditions, there were no significant differences in the tested parameters. This study shows that closing eyes or keeping eyes opened while using HMD to experience virtual reality has the same effect on one leg standing balance. This finding should be considered in the evaluation or intervention of balance, especially one leg standing balance and balance while standing with a small base of support.

침지식 분리막 모듈에서 공기강도에 따른 분리막 위치에 대한 오염을 조사하였다. 분리막의 충진밀도가 낮은 곳에서 높은 유체 유속을 나타내었으며, 유체 속도는 기-액 주입률에 비례하였다. 전단응력은 기-액 주입률 및 유체 유속에 비례하였다. 비가역오염(Rir)은 흡입 압력이 가까운 부분에서 가장 높게 나타났다(position 1). 비가역오염에 대한 저항과 분리막 고유 저항의 비(Rir/Rm) 및 비가역오염에 대한 저항과 가역오염의 저항의 비(Rir/Rr)도 position 1에서 가장 높게 조사되었다. 비가역오염(Rir)은 흡입 압력이 높은 곳인 position 1에 오염물질이 축적되어진 결과이다. 분리막 위치에 따른 오염현상은 모듈 디자인 최적화에 중요한 인자임을 알았다.

The common features of walking in patients with stroke include decreased gait velocity and increased asymmetrical gait pattern. The purpose of this study was to identify important factors related to impairments in gait velocity and asymmetry in chronic stroke patients. The subjects were 30 independently ambulating subjects with chronic stroke. The subjects’ impairments were examined, including the isokinetic peak torque of knee extensors, knee flexors, ankle plantarflexors, and ankle dorsiflexors. Passive and active ranges of motion (ROM) of the ankle joint, ankle plantarflexor spasticity, joint position senses of the knee and ankle joint, and balance were examined together. In addition, gait velocity and temporal and spatial asymmetry were evaluated with subjects walking at their comfortable speed. Pearson correlations and multiple regressions were used to measure the relationships between impairments and gait speed and impairments and asymmetry. Regression analyses revealed that ankle passive ROM and peak torque of knee flexors were important factors for gait velocity (R2=.41), while ankle passive ROM was the most important determinant for temporal asymmetry (R2=.35). In addition, knee extensor peak torque was the most significant factor for gait spatial asymmetry (R2=.17). Limitation in ankle passive ROM and weakness of the knee flexor were major contributors to slow gait velocity. Moreover, limited passive ROM in the ankle influenced the level of temporal gait asymmetry in chronic stroke patients. Our findings suggest that stroke rehabilitation programs aiming to improve gait velocity and temporal asymmetry should include stretching exercise for the ankle joint.

Impact damages induced by a low-velocity impact load on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite plates fabricated with various stacking sequences were studied experimentally. The impact responses of the CFRP composite plates were significantly affected by the laminate stacking sequences. Three types of specimens, specifically quasi-isotropic, unidirectional, and cross-ply, were tested by a constant impact carrying the same impact energy level. An impact load of 3.44 kg, corresponding to 23.62 J, was applied to the center of each plate supported at the boundaries. The unidirectional composite plate showed the worst impact resistance and broke completely into two parts; this was followed by the quasi-isotropic lay-up plate that was perforated by the impact. The cross-ply composite plate exhibited the best resistance to the low-velocity impact load; in this case, the impactor bounced back. Impact parameters such as the peak impact force and absorbed energy were evaluated and compared for the impact resistant characterization of the composites made by different stacking sequences.

The regular safety inspection of vehicles in service has been tested up to now not by a plate type (dynamic) inspection system but by a roller type (static) inspection system in our country (in Korea). Therefore, the roller type inspection can not reflect the inertia force that there is a load transfer from the rear axle to the front axle during braking. In this study, before introducing the plate type inspection system, the effect on braking force characteristics according to entering velocities of vehicles in service are evaluated statistically. As the results, the reliable entering velocity range is about from 7 km/h to 14 km/h. Also, the regular vehicle safety inspection in domestic country need to adopt the plate type (dynamic) braking force inspection system which can reflect the inertia force.
