하천은 인간에게 용수의 이용 및 하천호안의 휴식처로써의 이용을 통해 직접적인 영향을 주고, 하천구조물의 심미적 영향, 랜드마크로써의 역할을 통해 간접적인 영향을 준다. 또한, 하천은 하천생태계에 서식하는 동 식물에게 영향을 준다. 그러나 하천유사로 인해 통수능이 감소하고, 하천구조물 주변에 침식을 야기할 뿐만 아니라, 댐과 저수지에 유사의 퇴적으로 저수용량의 감소시킨다. 그러므로 이를 예측하는 것은 경제적, 환경적으로 중요하다. 하상변동의 모의를 위해 기존의 2차원 모형은 만곡흐름에서 유동의 helical flow를 고려하지 않아 예측이 부정확하였다. 본 연구에서는 천수방정식을 이용한 하상변동 수치모의에 helical flow의 영향을 고려하였다. 하천과 같은 천수영역에서의 흐름 및 하상변동을 해석하기 위하여 수심평균 된 Navier-Stokes equations인 천수방정식을 이용하였다. 지배방정식은 곡선 좌표계에서 유한체적법으로 차분하였고, 비엇갈림격자를 사용하였다. 지배방정식의 닫힘 문제를 해결하기위해 0-방정식 난류모형을 사용하였고, "time marching" 기법의 적용을 위해 계산단계분할 방법을 이용하였다. 비엇갈림격자의 사용으로 인해 검사체적의 면에서의 유속이 필요하여 pressure-velocity coupling을 사용하여 유속의 진동을 줄였다. 또한, 만곡부의 helical flow를 모의하기위해 helical flow intensity model을 도입하였다. 앞에서 계산한 흐름을 바탕으로 유사량 산정공식과 Exner 방정식을 이용하여 하상변동을 모의하였다. 흐름의 검증, helical flow의 영향에 대한 확인, 하상변동의 적용을 위해 선행연구의 실험이 사용되었다.

The design of reactor internals requires the accurate vibration characteristics of each component for subsequent dynamic structural response analyses. For Korean standard nuclear power plant some modifications on the Control Element Assembly shroud from the reference design have been made, Since the shroud is complex in geometry having an array of vertical round tubes and webs in a square grid pattern, and being tied down by preloaded tie rods into position, it is planned to perform a vibration measurement program consisting of both experimental and analytical modal studies upon that component. The shroud modal testing was performed on the low frequency global survey to measure the first several modes. The analysis using the finite element model was also performed for the as-tested conditions. The natural frequencies and mode shapes from both test and analysis have been acquired and compared to be in good agreement. It is concluded that finite element model generated is good enough to be used in the design for the dynamic response analysis under various loading conditions.

In offshore environment, an accurate estimation of a wave-structure interaction has been an important issue for safe and cost effective design of fixed and floating offshore structures exposed to a harsh environment. In this study, a wave-structure interaction around a circular column was investigated with regular waves. To simulate 3D two-phase flow, open source computational fluid dynamics libraries, called OpenFOAM, were used. Wave generation and absorption in the wave tank were activated by the relaxation method, which implemented in a source term. To validate the numerical methods, generated Stokes 2nd-order wave profiles were compared with the analytic solution with deep water condition. From the validation test, grid longitudinal and vertical sizes for wave length and amplitude were selected. The simulated wave run-up and wave loads on the circular column were studied and compared with existing experimental data.

Noise control of a plate structure with multiple disk shaped piezoelectric actuators is studied. The plate is excited by an acoustic pressure field produced by a noise source located below the plate. Finite element modeling is used for the plate structure that supports a combination of three dimensional solid, flat shell and transition elements. The objective function, in the optimization procedure, is to minimize the sound energy radiated onto a hemispherical surface of given radius and the design parameters are the locations and sizes of the piezoelectric actuators as well as the amplitudes of the voltages applied to them. Automatic mesh generation is addressed as part of the modeling procedure. Numerical results for both resonance and off resonance frequencies show remarkable noise reduction and the optimal locations of the actuators are found to be close to the edges of the plate structure. The optimized result is robust such that when the acoustic pressure pattern is changed, reduction of radiated sound is still maintained. The robustness of an optimally designed structure is also tested by changing the frequency of the noise source using only the actuator voltages as design parameters.

A three-dimensional numerical model is employed to investigate wave deformation due to a submerged structure. The three-dimensional numerical model solves the spatially averaged Navier-Stokes equations for two-phase flows. The LES(large-eddy-simulation) approach is adopted to model the turbulence effect by using the Smagorinsky SGS(sub-grid scale) closure model. The two-step projection method is employed in the numerical solutions, aided by the Bi-CGSTAB technique to solve the pressure Poisson equation for the filtered pressure field. The second-order accurate VOF(volume-of-fluid) method is used to track the distorted and broken free surface. A simple linear wave is generated on a constant depth and compared with analytical solutions. The model is then applied to study wave deformation due to a submerged structure and the predicted results are compared with available laboratory measurements.

Single layer latticed domes which have a mechanics property, a functional property, a aesthetic property and so on, occupies one part of long span space structures and after this, the using parts will be extended. The frame network pattern of single-layer latticed domes can be infinitely taken into account. The typical network patterns are triangular, square, hexagon, lamella and rib etc. It would take long time and cost too much to erect large roof structures with traditional erection techniques due to require of large number of temporary bracing and supports. The erection of large roof structures requires special techniques. As one of these special techniques is the Step-Up election method that utilizes jack-up supports and this will extremely saves time and cost to erect large roof structures. The objective of this study is to analysis the buckling characteristics of single-layer lamella domes according to the support number and position. From the result of this study, we obtained the fundamental data for the structural engineers who design the temporary support of large roof structures.

A fiber optic sensor is prospective to be applied to structural health monitoring. Especially, a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensor is one of the most popular sensors for the structural health monitoring. The FBG sensor has several demodulation systems for tracking the shift of the Bragg wavelength. The dynamic bandwidth is dependent on the demodulation system. In this paper, the sensing mechanism is that the slope of the optical spectrum of FBG could be used as its sensitivity when the tunable laser shot the monochromatic laser wavelength at the highest slope point. In this technique, the high sensitivity is guaranteed even though the sensing range is limited. In an example of the application, the composite plate embedding a FBG sensor was manufactured by using an autoclave method and the above sensing mechanism was applied to the composite plate. Firstly, the natural frequencies of the plate were successfully measured by the FBG sensor during the impact hammer test. Secondly, a high-power speaker was used to force the plate to be vibrated at the specific frequency that was one of the natural frequencies. During the shaking, the FBG sensor measures the dynamic characteristics and ESPI was also used to measure the mode shape. From the two dynamic tests, the availability of the FBG sensor system and the ESPI was proven as a technique for measuring the dynamic characteristics of composite structure.

Among many fabrication methods of composite materials, filament winding is the most effective method for fabricating axis-symmetric structures such as pressure tanks and pipes. Filament wound pressure tanks are under high internal pressure during the operation and it has the complexity in damage mechanisms and failure modes. For this reason, it is necessary to monitor the tank through its operation as well as whole fabrication process. A large number of sensors must be embedded into multi points of the tank from its fabrication step for monitoring the whole tank. Fiber optic sensors, especially fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensors are widely used for various applications because of good multiplexing capabilities. However, we need to develop the embedding technique of FBG sensors into harsh inner environment of the tank far the successful embedment. In this paper, we studied the embedding technique of a number of FBG sensors into filament wound pressure tanks considering multiplexing.

The fuel rod instability can be occurred because of the axial and cross flow due to the flow anomaly and/or flow redistribution in the lower core plate region of the pressurized water reactor. The fuel rod vibration due to the hydraulic instability is one of the root causes of fuel failure. The verification on the fuel rod vibration and instability is needed for the new fuel assembly design to verify the fuel rod instability. In this study, the fuel rod vibration and stability analyses were performed to investigate the effect of the grid height, fuel rod support condition, and span adjustment on the fuel rod vibration characteristics for the advanced $16{\times}16$ fuel assembly design. Based on the analysis results, the grid height and grid axial elevation of the advanced $16{\times}16$ fuel assembly design were proposed.
