An eddy current probe ($8{\times}1$ multiple-element, surface scan) was successfully designed and fabricated at the KEPRI using the impedance equivalent circuit theory. The probe is intended for the detection of circumferential deformations (cross-section view) of the heat exchanger tubing that can occur due to corrosion, erosion, and denting. Optimum design parameters providing the highest sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio, such as the coil dimensions, electrical characteristics, and test frequencies, were determined based on initial laboratory experiments conducted on the test specimen (SS304 tubing: OD : 9.68mm, wall-thickness : 0.47mm) containing artificial flaws (e.g., dents and corroded surface on tube OD) using the available Zetec-made probe. Using this parameters, a new probe was made and tested on an unknown specimen. The result indicated that the new probe is capable of detecting the circumferential deformation with the error of ${\pm}0.2%$ (0.022mm) of the tube O.D.

This research presents the structural performance and an improving technique for flexural capacity of road safety facilities based on the damage cases by wind pressure. Among road safety facilities, a support frame of soundproofing walls is considered as a prototype structure and its corresponding structural behaviors and section design are performed mainly by analytical and experimental studies. On the basis of analytical results, glass fiber reinforced polymer(GFRP) with an epoxy matrix which is high stiffness-to-weight ratio was used for applied one of strengthening techniques and their results shows that support frame strengthened by GFRP is the most effective compared to other cases proposed in this research for advancing its flexural improvement, Finally, optimum section design was performed analytically to evaluate wind-resistance capacity and its result would be very useful for developing a practical design guideline for Road safety facilities under strong wind.

In many military aircraft, s-shaped diffusers are used to prevent the fan blades of the turbofan engine from being exposed to the outside. The inlet configurations of the air intakes for military aircraft vary, such as the rectangular intake of the F-22, the crescent-like intake of the F-16, elliptical intake of the MQ-25. In this study, the aerodynamic performance of s-shaped diffusers with various inlet configurations was evaluated using numerical analysis. In addition, the configuration of the middle section of an s-shape duct was changed to the crescent shape, and the effects on its aerodynamic performance were investigated. As a result, there was a slight difference in total pressure recovery according to various inlet configurations with ellipse-shaped middle sections. Also, the total pressure distortion was the lowest in the rectangular inlet shape. When the configuration of the middle section was changed from an ellipse to a crescent shape, the total pressure recovery remained at a high level, except for the ellipse-shaped inlet configuration. In terms of total pressure distortion, the duct with the crescent-shaped middle section showed a significantly more uniform pressure distribution than that with the ellipse-shaped middle section.

In this paper, the stability of cantilever composite laminated structures with open channel section is studied. This paper deals with the buckling behavior under the variation of the geometrical shape (length ratio, crank angle in the open channel section), the fiber reinforced angle, and so on in order to offer a effective and reliable design data. Also, sensitive analyses are carried out on the stability by the interaction of design factors. Based on this fact, the proper channel section and lamination scheme of composite material cantilever structures are considered in the engineering aspect.

The damage of greenhouse has been increasing due to frequent collapse of frame in greenhouse caused by the heavy snow and strong wind. But, greenhouses are constructed by steel tube members of pipe style and pin connection of them, so these greenhouses are very weak. Therefore, this study was carried out to find the type of member section and structural frame system in stress tolerant greenhouses. The modeling types for analysis were designed in accordance with structural frame configuration and member section in greenhouse. These types of models, which are existing type, diagrid type, symmetric and asymmetric section type of frame member in greenhouse were classified. Displacement analysis varying the vertical and horizontal loads for a series of models was carried out. As a result of this paper, it was verified that the structural frame configuration of diagrid type and asymmetric type of member section is better than existing type in the frame of greenhouses against snow loads and wind loads.

Surface area of the steel member exposed to fire differs according to type and size of the section and the kind of the member, which shows a big difference in the temperature rise of the steel by fire. The section factor ($H_p$/A) is determined by factors such as type, size, and member of the steel and type of the fire protection material, and it is the criteria in determining thickness of the fire protection material. This study showed that the size of the steel increase regardless of the steel type, the section factor decrease. In the results on fire protection thickness of the steel according to the section factor, the efficiency of 1 hour fire protection was lower from 30 to 50% than the criteria. And there is the member, which have the thickness lower the minimum 27% in 2 hour fire protection, but it generally approached in the criteria. In case of H-shape steel, the efficiency of 3 hour fire protection was suitable for the criteria, but rectangular hollow steel section and circular hollow steel section were higher (5.0-17.5%) than the criteria.

This study investigated the influence of concrete compressive strength for the lateral confinement of high-strength spiral reinforcement. The main test parameters were the compressive strength of concrete, the yield strength of spiral reinforcement, and cross sectional shape. A total of 48 cylindrical test specimens with circularand rectangular sections were cast and tested under monotonic concentric compression.

단열 완충재의 하부단면에서 양각 형태가 전체 면적에서 .차지하는 비율에 따라 진동 충격음 저감량을 실험하였다. 양각 형태가 차지하는 비율이 높더라도 진동 충격음 저감량에는 큰 성능을 나타내지 않았다. 바닥 구조에서 슬래브와 상판 사이에 단열완충재를 설치할 경우 중량 충격음이 오히려 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 이것은 뜬 바닥 구조에서 완충재의 설치로 인하여 슬래브와 상판간의 거동이 다르게 발생하기 때문이다.

Section design of vehicle structure has been developed by two methods. One is the section property method which uses section property as a design variable. This method shows the tendency of an optimum section approximately. The other method is the section shape method which utilizes geometric parameter of section as a design variable. Practical solutions are obtained by this method. However, it is very expensive for large-scale problems due to the large number of geometric parameters. These two methods are compared through several sample problems. The finite element method is used for the structural and sensitivity analyses. The results are analyzed based on the number of function evaluations, the quality of cost function, the complexity of programing, and etc. The applications of both methods are also discussed.
