3D 프린팅 콘크리트는 임의의 형상을 자유롭게 적층하여 제작할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있지만, 노즐의 구조 및 형상에 따라 곡선부의 출력 품질이 달라진다. 또한, 공기중에서 출력한 경우와 수중에 서 출력한 경우 그 품질이 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 고정 마감날을 가진 사각형 노즐을 이용하여 3D 프린팅 모르타르를 수중에서 곡선 형태로 출력하고 적층한 후 출력성능, 적층성능, 및 역학적성능을 평가하였다. 30 × 30 mm 사각형 개구부를 가지고 있고 노즐 끝 양 측면에 고정 마감날이 설치된 노 즐을 사용하였다. 사전 직선 출력시험에서 선정된 조건인 호퍼 회전속도 14 rpm, 노즐 이동 속도 2000 mm/min을 적용하여 출력하였고, 1층 높이를 30mm로 출력하여 5층 적층하였다. 출력 및 적층 결과, 직선부분의 표면은 양호한 반면 곡면부분, 특히 곡률이 큰 곡선부분의 바깥쪽에서 표면균열이 관찰되었다. 직선부분의 치수 일관성은 양호한 반면, 곡률 반경이 작은 곡선부분의 폭 차이가 나타났 다. 곡선부분의 밀도와 압축강도는 직선부분보다 낮았다. 이는 곡선부에서 직사각형 노즐 회전에 따른 재료 토출이 불균일하기 때문인데, 이러한 문제점을 보완할 수 있는 제어 기술 개발이 필요하다.

The study aims to analyze the geometric characteristics of the pointed arches proposed by Al-Kāshī in his book "Miftāḥ al-Ḥisāb" (Key of Arithmetic) and investigate their planning principles, architectural application, and typological characteristics. Al-Kāshī completed this significant work in 1427 and dedicated it to Ulugh Beg, a Timurid Sultan in Samarkand. In the ninth chapter, titled "Al-‘Imārāt wa al-Abnīya" (Amīr’s Mansion and Building), Al-Kāshī sought to measure the surface areas and volumes of barrel vaults (Azaj) and domes (Qubba). To achieve this, he proposed five kinds of pointed arches (Ṭāq) and analyzed their drawing methods and composition principles. The Īwān and Qubba structures, which are curved architectural elements, hold significant importance in Islamic architecture. However, previous research has predominantly focused on comparing the drawings in Al-Kāshī's book with historical buildings, neglecting the inherent characteristics of the drawings themselves. This study intends to contribute to a deeper understanding of Al-Kāshī's remarkable work and shed light on the geometric aspects of monumental structures in the Timurid Period.

Driving safety of a semi-trailer is greatly reduced when driving in a section with a narrow turning radius, so a dynamic study of driving and road conditions is required. In this study, the driving stability of the semi-trailer was investigated using the RecurDyn program in consideration of the velocity and weight of the semi-trailer in the entrance curve section of the highway, and the turning angle and radius of the curved road. In order to select the model and analysis conditions according to the road type, the sloping curved road was modeled by selecting the curvature, entry length, height difference, and entrance angle of the curved section. From the analysis results, the higher the semi-trailer's entrance velocity, the heavier the weight, the narrower the entrance angle of the curved road, and the smaller the curvature, the greater the semi-trailer's maximum running angular speed which had an effect on driving stability.

본 논문에서는 정전기 흡착패드를 구성하는 곡면형 전극의 기하학적 엄밀성을 고려하기 위해 정전기 문제에 대하여 CAD에서 사 용하는 NURBS 기저함수를 직접 사용하는 아이소-지오메트릭 해석 기법을 도입하였다. 정전기 흡착력을 곡선 접촉면에서 구하는데 법선 벡터의 영향이 크므로 엄밀한 기하형상을 고려하는 아이소-지오메트릭 해석이 강점을 갖는다. 수치 예제를 통해 곡면과 평면에서 반복 구조의 유무에 따른 파라메터 연구를 수행하여 곡면형 전극의 흡착력이 좋은 성능을 가짐을 보였다. 정전기 흡착력의 성분을 분석하였을 때 정전기 흡착력의 차이는 법선 성분 전기장의 증가로 인한 것으로 파악되었다. 결론적으로 곡면형 전극에서도 전극 사이 거리가 가까워지는 아래로 볼록인 경우가 가장 성능이 좋고, 위로 볼록인 경우에는 성능이 가장 낮음을 보였다.

In this study, numerical analysis is conducted to understand the flow characteristics of the radial impeller with the design parameters such as the blade shape and position using the ANSYS Fluent software. The shape of blade is divided into two types, a backward curved blade and an airfoil forward curved blade. To examine the fundamental flow characteristics near the blades, a rectangular flow field is modeled and analyzed. On the other hand, for the impeller rotation analysis, the simulation is performed by modeling the rotational region separately. As a result, the airfoil forward curved blade shows higher outlet flow rate than the backward curved blade. In addition, as the depth of the impeller and the attachment angle of blade increase, the higher flow rate appears.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the level of the light-environment and the driver's visual ability on the change in the driver's perception of a forward curved section at night. The study also aims to identify factors that should be considered to ensure safety while entering curved sections of a road at night. METHODS : Data collected from a virtual driving experiment, conducted by the Korean Institute of Construction Technology (2017), were used. Logistic regression was applied to analyze the effects of changes in the light-environment factors (road surface luminance and glare) and the driver’s visual ability on a driver's perception of the road. Additionally, analysis of the moderated effect of visual ability on light-environment factors indicated that the difference in drivers’ visual abilities impact the influence of light-environment factors on their perception. A driver's ability to perceive, as a response variable, was categorized into 'failure' and 'success' by comparing the perceived distance and minimum reaction sight distance. Covariates were also defined. Road surface luminance levels were categorized into 'unlit road surface luminance' (luminance ≤ 0.1 nt) and 'lit road surface luminance' (luminance > 0.1 nt), based on 0.1 nt, which is the typical level observed on unlit roads. The glare level was categorized as 'with glare' and 'without glare' based on whether the glare was from a high-beam caused by an oncoming vehicle or not. The driver's visual ability level was categorized into 'low visual ability' (age ≥ 50) and 'high visual ability' (age ≤ 49), considering that after the age of 50, the drive’s visual ability sharply declines. RESULTS : The level of road surface luminance, glare, and driver's visual ability were analyzed to be significant factors that impact the driver's ability to perceive curved road sections at night. A driver's perception was found to reduce when the road surface luminance is very low, owing to the lack of road lighting ('unlit road luminance'), when glare is caused by oncoming vehicles ('with glare'), and if the driver's visual ability level is low owing to an older age ('low visual ability'). The driver's ability to perceive a curved section is most affected by the road surface luminance level. The effect is reduced in the order of glare occurrence and the driver's visual ability level. The visual ability was analyzed as a factor that impacts the intensity of the effect of change of the light-environment on the change of the driver's ability to perceive the road. The ability to perceive a curved section deteriorates significantly in 'low visual ability' drivers, aged 50 and above, compared to drivers with 'high visual ability,' under the age of 49, when the light-environment conditions are adverse with regard to the driver’s perception (road surface luminance: 'lit road surface luminance'→'unlit road surface luminance,' glare: 'without glare'→'with glare'). CONCLUSIONS : Supplementation, in terms of road lighting standards that can lead to improvements in the level of light-environment, should be considered first, rather than the implementation of restrictions on the right of movement, such as restricting the passage of low visual ability or aging drivers who are disadvantageous in terms of gaining good perception of the road at night. When establishing alternatives so that safety on roads at night is improved, it is necessary to consider improving drivers' perception by expanding road lighting installation. The road lighting criteria should be modified such that the glare caused by oncoming traffic, which is an influential factor in the linear change in perception, and the level of light-environment thereof are improved.

FRP is a new material that has light, high strength and high durability characteristics and is emerging as a third construction material in and out of countries. However, very few studies have been done on curved FRP construction materials that can be used for tunnels or arched bridges. In particular, many joints are required for the application of curved panels to the open cut tunnel. Experimental data on the performance of the joint is required due to insufficient design criteria. The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural performance of real size, composite materials curved panels. To achieve this goal, curved panels were constructed and bending performance was tested. A numerical analysis was also performed and compared with the results of the test. The results of the test showed that the average load was 757.6 kN and the average displacement of bottom was measured at 53.12 mm. Compression stress on the upper flange and tensile stress on the lower flange were within acceptable limits of 50% of the allowable stress.

The curved beam has a complicated behavior compared to a straight beam due to torsional and warping. Therefor, in this study, eigenvalue analysis was performed for curved beam with different shape(I-shape, T-shape, box-shape) corresponding to the same value of the moment of inertia. As a result the curved beam with box-shape section had a larger natural frequency value than the other curved beam. Also, the dynamic analysis results showed that the largest result was obtained at 826.18MPa in the T-shape curved beam when the gyeongju earthquake was applied.
