Wire ropes have been widely used in industrial applications, wherever heavy weight should be carried safely or mechanical energy should be transmitted fast. Especially, wire rope failures in operating elevator may lead to extensive property damage and serious injury to nearby personnel. Hence, it is very important to inspect wire rope periodically. Failure defection of wire rope requires fundamental knowledge of wire rope construction, rope behavior, properties of fault, sensing and signal processing method. In this research, the development of a new fault detecting system incorporating Hall-effect sensors to detect flaws such as abrasion, broken wire, corrosion and deformation for aged wire ropes in elevator, is described. For using a detector as a portable instrument, several performances for implementing sensing part with Hall-effect sensor, analog signal processing unit and programs are described. Experiments and field testing results for the implemented detecting system are also given. As a result, it is verified that the detecting system has good efficiency for inspecting faults of aged wire ropes in service.

본 기술은 와이어로프의 중간 부위와 단부에 코일스프링을 설치하여 하중 작용시 압축으로 저항하게 하는 낙석방지 울타리의 제작ㆍ설치 기술이다. 이는 낙석 발생시 고유진동수가 작고 큰 변형률이 유도되므로 접촉시간이 길어 와이어로프에 발생하는 장력을 감소시키고 충격흡수능력을 향상시켰으며, 압축으로 저항하여 와이어로프가 먼저 파단된 후 스프링이 항복하도록 하여 안전성을 향상시킨 기술이다.(중략)

본 논문에서는 윤곽선 이미지 매칭에서 회전-불변 거리를 계산하는 효율적 방법을 제안한다. 회전-불변 거리 계산은 이미지 시계열을 한 칸씩 회전하면서 매번 유클리디안 거리를 계산해야 하는 고비용의 연산이다. 본 논문에서는 엔빌로프 기반 하한을 사용하여 불필요한 회전-불변 거리 계산을 크게 줄이는 효율적인 해결책을 제시하다. 이를 위해, 먼저 질의 시퀀스 대상의 엔빌로프 작성과 이의 하한 개념을 제시한다.다음으로, 엔빌로프 기반 하한을 회전-불변 거리 계산에 사용하면 많은 수의 회전-불변 거리계산을 줄일 수 있음을 보인다. 실험 결과, 제안한 엔빌로프 기반 매칭 기법은 기존 기법에 비해 최대 수배에서 수십배까지 매칭 성능을 향상시킨 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, the safety and effectiveness of ope cutter, developed to prevent frequent accident propeller windingness at sea. First, we calculated the bolt strength of the three types of rope cutting devices used in the experiment and the torsional stresses on the shafting system theoretical equation and the finite element method. As a result, the bolts used in the rope cutter confirmed from the viewpoint of safety life design and fail safe design. Also, safety satisfactory because of the small effect on the shaft system when locking up. Experiments were carried out to cut ropes and fishing nets from the sea using the ships equipped with three types of rope cutters verified to be safe. As a result, ropes of 20 to 50 mm in thickness were generally cut. It was found that the cutting efficiency of a rope cutter attached to shafting decreased when cutting thick ropes.

In this study, Magnetic Flux Leakage(MFL)-based inspection system was applied to detect the local fault of wire rope. To verify the feasibility of the proposed damage detection technique, an 4-channel MFL sensor head prototype was designed and fabricated. A wire rope with several types of cross-sectional damages were fabricated and scanned by the MFL sensor head to measure the magnetic flux density of the wire rope specimen. To interpret the condition of the wire rope, magnetic flux signals were used to determine the locations of the flaws. To improve the resolution of signal, the instantaneous variation value of magnetic flux was utilized. Measured signals from the damaged specimen were compared with thresholds set for objective decision making. Finally, the results were compared with information on actual inflicted damages to confirm the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed cable monitoring method.

In this study, a vertical drop test was carried out to identify the performance of flexible wire rope rockfall protection fence by 100 kJ rockfall energy according to ETAG 027. The flexible wire rope, which consists of wire rope and spring. is especially enhanced the elasticity and flexibility so that it can be longer elongated when the rope is impacted by rockfall compared to original wire rope, and that results longer increase of contact time between rockfall and wire rope and increase rockfall energy absorption capability and decreases rockfall impact force. The test results shows that the plastic deformation occurred in middle post and the final deflection of the middle post was 1.15 m, which is lower than 2.0 m determined by ETAG 027. This vertical test verified the flexible wire rope rockfall protection fence can successfully absorb 102.9 kJ rockfall energy.

The paper describes m experimental study on the shear strengthening of concrete beams with exposed wire rope. The strengthening method is using the mechanical bolting of wire rope tensioned on the exterior of beam section. There are two shear strengthening types. The first is closed type wrapped beam section with wire rope like as closed stirrup. The second is U type tensioned at the anchor located in the side of beam section. The main parameters of specimens are strengthening spacings of wire rope with 150, 200, and 250mm for the closed and U type respectively. The shear span ratio of specimens applied by 3-point loading is 4. The results showed that the ultimate shear strength and ductility of strengthened beams increased significantly compared with non-strengthened beams. Especially, the strengthening effect of closed type was very preferable to U type. Therefore, the shear strengthening method with wire rope is very reasonable in view of repair and rehabilitation of beams.

Chemical composition, crystal structure, refractive index, specific gravity, color, and luster were studied fur pyrope-almandine series garnets. The main coloring agents determining the reddish or brownish garnets were also investigated. It was also examined if there is any relationship between mineralogical properties with respect to the various chemical compositions in the solid solution, in the hope to figure out the existing classification values of R.I. and S.G. using gem- testing facilities to distinguish pyrope from almadine. It was found that 17 out of the 24 specimens belong to pyrope and the rest almandine. R.I. of pyrope goes up to 1.77 and that of almandine is higher than the value.5.5. of pyrope reaches to 3.88 and that of almandine is greater than the value of pyrope. X-ray diffraction data revealed that pyrope-almandine garnets are isometric with space group Ia3d, and also show that the variation of cell parameters are not significant enough to parallel with the chemical compositions of the series. R.I. and S.G. increase with FeO content. Fe and Mn are most responsible to the red-purple and orange coloration of the specimens, respectively. Both zircon and rutile crystals are most common inclusions in the reddish stones.
