A spent fuel storage cask is required to prove the safety of a canister under a hypothetical accidental drop condition. A hypothetical accidental drop condition means that a canister is assumed to be a lee drop on to a pad of the storage cask during loading it into a storage cask. A pad of the storage cask absorbs shock to maintain the structural integrities of a canister under a hypothetical accidental drop condition. In this paper a finite element analysis for various pad structures was carried out to improve the structural integrity of a canister under a hypothetical accidental drop condition. A pad of a storage cask was designed a steel structure with concrete. The 1/4 height of a pad was modified with a structure composed of a steel and a polyurethane foam as a impact limiter. The effect of a shape of a steel structure was studied. The effects of the thickness of a steel structure and the density of a polyurethane foam was also studied.

This study investigated the impact behaviors of the stitched sandwich composites under the low energy impact by the use of drop weight impact tester. These sandwich composites condidted of the glass fabric faces with a urethane foam core. The upper face and the lower face were stitched to combinr through the core thickness direction using the polyester reinforcements. Four types of the stitched sandwich composites, each having a different core thickness, were tested to determine the effects of the core thickness. The impact conditions were changes with the variations of the mass and drop height of the impact tup. The test results showed that the core thickness and the impact condidtions such as the drop height and the mass of the impact tup affected the impact force, the contact time, and the strain behaviors of the stitched sandwich composites. The stitched sandwich composites are able to avert the damage and also maintain the structural integrity even thouth the presence of the damage owing to the through-the-thickness reinforcements. However, it is important to improve the wetting ability of the stitched reinforcements so that the conventional structures are substituted for the stitched sandwich composites effectively.

최근 본 연구실에서 무연 솔더를 위한 새로운 Cu-Zn 합금 젖음층을 개발하였다. 전해도금을 통하여 Cu-Zn 합금층을 형성한 뒤 그 위에 Sn-4.0wt% Ag-0.5wt% Cu (SAC 405) 솔더를 리플로 솔더링을 통해 솔더접합부를 형성하였으며 계면에서 생성된 금속간 화합물의 형성 및 성장 거동을 연구하였다. SAC/Cu 시스템의 경우, $150^{\circ}C$에서 시효 처리를 실시하는 동안 솔더와 도금된 Cu 계면에서 $Cu_6Sn_5$ 상과 미세한 공공이 형성된 $Cu_3Sn$ 상이 발견되었다. 반면에 SAC/Cu-Zn 시스템에서는 계면에서 $Cu_6Sn_5$ 상만이 형성되었다. 또한 큰 판상형의 $Ag_3Sn$ 상이 SAC/Cu 시스템에 비해 현저하게 억제되었다. SAC/Cu-Zn 계면에서의 금속간 화합물의 성장 속도가 SAC/Cu 계면에서 형성된 금속간 화합물의 성장 속도보다 느리게 나타났다. Cu-Zn 젖음층의 Zn가 솔더와 Cu-Zn 층 사이에서 Cu와 Sn 원자의 상호 확산을 방해하기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 Cu와 Cu-Zn 층을 이용한 솔더 접합부의 낙하 충격 신뢰성을 연구하였다. 낙하 충격 시험 시편은 두 개의 인쇄 회로 기판을 SAC 405 솔더볼을 이용하여 리플로를 통해 상호연결 하여 제조되었다. 이 때, 각각의 인쇄 회로 기판의 패드에는 Cu 층과 Cu-Zn층을 전해도금을 통하여 각각 $10{\mu}m$두께의 젖음층을 형성하였다. 낙하 시험 시편을 제조한 뒤, 시효 처리에 대한 낙하 저항 신뢰성의 특성을 연구하기 위해 250, 500 시간동안 시효처리를 한 후 각 조건에서 계면에 형성된 금속간 화합물의 성장 거동을 관찰하였으며, 낙하 충격 시험을 실시하였다. 낙하 시험은 daisy chain으로 연결된 시편의 저항이 100 Ohm 이상 측정되었을 때 중단되도록 하였다. Cu-Zn/SAC/Cu-Zn 시편의 경우 초기 리플로를 하였을 때 불량이 발생하는 평균 낙하 수는 350이며, Cu/SAC/Cu 시편의 평균 낙하수는 200 미만으로 나타났다. Cu/SAC/Cu 시편의 경우, 시효처리 시간이 증가함에 따라 평균 낙하수는 큰 폭으로 감소하였지만, Cu-Zn/SAC/Cu-Zn 시편은 불량이 발생하는 평균 낙하수의 감소폭이 보다 완만하게 나타났다. Cu 층에 Zn를 첨가함으로써 솔더와 젖음층 사이에서 형성된 금속간 화합물의 성장 및 미세 공공의 형성이 억제되었고, 솔더 접합부의 과냉을 감소시킴으로써 큰 판상형의 $Ag_3Sn$ 상의 형성을 억제함으로써 Cu-Zn/SAC/Cu-Zn 솔더 접합부에서 Cu/SAC/Cu 솔더 접합부보다 낙하 충격에 대한 저항성 및 신뢰성이 향상되었다. 이는 무연 솔더에 Zn를 첨가하여 낙하 충격 신뢰성을 향상시킨 것과 동일한 효과를 나타냈음을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 한국 과학 기술 재단의 전자패키지 재료 연구 센터(CEPM)와 지식 경제부의 부품 소재 기술 개발 사업의 지원을 받아 수행되었습니다.

In the present study, the hydrodynamic force acting on the vertical wall of a portable water storage tank is examined. A Dispersion Relation Preserving (DRP) method, proposed by Jang, is applied for simulating lapping waves and their impact on the wall. A meaningful investigation has been observed, which may be applied to the strength design for the portable water storage tank.

In this work, the effect of attitude angle variation on drag coefficients of hemisphere in a Mach 6 flow has been investigated. Experiments were conducted in a shock tunnel and a free-falling technique was used to minimize flow disturbance by a sting. For attitude and drag coefficient measurements of a free-falling hemisphere, a free-falling technique based on a releasing mechanism with a stair-typed module and an electromagnet was developed. A shadowgraph technique was used for flow visualization using a high-speed camera.

The main function of a landing gear is to absorb the impact energy during touchdown. It it occasionally required for landing gear to have crashworthiness for improving survivability and safety in case of emergency landing. This paper introduces the design concept, performance analysis and drop test procedures for the development of the crashworthy landing gear. The shock absorbing ability and the crash behavior are proved by analyzing various sensor data and video clips from high speed camera recording during drop tests.

The fuel tank systems of fixed wing and rotary wing aircrafts require the self-sealing and crash-worthiness for their survivability. For these requirements, the flexible composite fuel tank is generally used. In this study, the performance of the flexible composite fuel tank is investigated. The FE simulation includes the drop test of a fuel tank using MSC.DYTRAN. MSC.DYTRAN can provide the fluid-structure modeling of these test from Euler and Lagrange grids. Using MSC.DYTRAN, the finite element modeling of the test cube of the flexible fuel tank and its FE simulation are performed for various environments. The simulation results can show if the test cube satisfies the performance requirements of the fuel tank.

In this paper, acceleration and pressure exerted on a human model were measured under a supersonic condition in a shock tunnel. In order to measure these in an interference-free environment, free-fall technique with an electromagnet and a three-dimensional iron-powdered human model was used. Free-fall experiment was conducted at Mach 4 and the force acting on the model was obtained by calculating the displacement from the flow visualization images.
