V-type coupling, which is often applied to wastegate-turbochargers(WGT), is a mechanical fastener. Its radial forces generated from the bolt pretension load colse contact with each other to the axial direction for turbine housing and center housing rotating assembly(CHRA). In addition, the torsional stiffness between two bodies should be sufficiently secured to minimize the linkage angle change from the EWGA to the valve spindle. Therefore, in this study, the torsional stiffnesses according to the effects of positioning pins and friction coefficient, and the bolt pretension loads were calculated for V-coupling turbocharger. As a result, it can be seen that the torsional stiffness of the coupling according to the number of position pins is very small. And, when the friction coefficient and the axial force of the bolt are large, the torsional stiffness is greatly increased, and gradually decreasing when the bolt load of the coupling is about 6,000 N or more.
In general, the pretensioned PSC members are manufactured at the factory and are transported to the site. Due to road conditions, their sizes are limited. Therefore, until now pretensioning method is only applied to small PSC members. In order to produce large scale PSC members using pretensioning method, they shall be made on site. In this study, a portable prestressing device to produce pretensioning PSC girders on site has been developed. The portable prestressing device should be safe and stable about jacking force. In this paper, the portable prestressing device to produce 10m-span pretensioning PSC girders was made. The static loading test was performed to analyze the resisting mechanism of each component of that device. The jacking force was introduced by stretching and anchoring the tendons at its both ends. In the static loading test, the structural characteristics of the developed device are investigated.
본 논문은 마이크로 유전 알고리즘을 이용하여 그리드 구조물의 최적화를 수행하고 초기인장력이 최적화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 최적화시 여러 제약조건을 설정하여 구조물의 물량이 최소화 되도록 부재의 단면을 찾는 최적 설계를 수행하였다. 알고리즘의 검증을 위해 10-bar 트러스트 예제로 설정하여 이전 연구 결과와의 비교를 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 초기인장력이 적용된 트러스트 구조물의 최적화가 가능한 다음과 같은 기법을 사용하여 그리드 형태인 72-bar 트러스의 최적화를 수행하였으며, 이전 연구결과와 비교하여 이를 입증하였다. 최적화시 초기인장력 크기를 달리하여 트러스 구조물의 최적화를 수행하였으며, 물량이 최소화되는 최적화된 초기 인장력 값도 찾았다.
