가늘고 긴 선배열을 해상에서 운용할 때 비선형 형상이 유도되므로 음원에 대한 정확한 탐지를 위하여 배열형상 추정이 필요하다. 방위센서를 이용한 배열형상 추정을 위하여 배열의 천 정도가 적은 경우에만 적용 가능한 다항 근사화 방법의 제한점을 극복하기 위하여 반복법을 제안하고, 수치 시뮬레이션을 통하여 반복회수에 따른 배열형상 추정결과를 분석하였다

Because of ocean waves, swell, steering corrections, etc, the hydrophones of a towed array will not live along a straight line. However the degradation of bearing estimation performance occurs when beamforming is carried out on the hydrophone outputs of an acoustic towed array which is not straight. So it is required to estimate the shape of the array for the improved beamformer output. In this paper, an iterative array shape estimation technique is presented, which is based on the use of the least squares polynomial fitting to the data from heading sensors. The estimation error and the influence of deformations on the performance of the conventional beamformer output are investigated. Finally, the suggested method is applied to the real system in order to investigate the applicability.

본 연구는 호안보호공 중 하천 바닥 또는 제방의 유지시설로 많이 쓰이는 사석의 안정성 분석을 위하여 수리실험을 실시하였다. 안정성 분석을 위해 Isbash식, Netherlands 간이공식, ASCE식, Pilarczk식, Maynord식을 검토하였다. 실험결과 사석의 직경이 커짐에 따라 한계유속이 증가하였고, 형상계수가 커지면 한계유속이 증하하였다. 또한 랜덤배열일 때보다 규칙배열일 경우 한계유속이 크게 측정 되었다. 이로서 형상계수와 인터로킹의 정도가 사석의 안정성에 중요한 함수라는 것을 나타낸다. 사석은 Maynord의 직경공식과 미 California주 정부 중량공식이 적합하게 나왔고, 모형사석의 규칙배열에서는 Pilarczk의 직경공식과 Netherlands 간이 무게공식이 적합하였다. 모형사석의 랜덤배열시에는 Isbash 공식이 적합하였다. Isbash 공식과 직경산정에 형상계수를 대입하여 새로운 식을 개발하였다. 이는 기존공식의 적용성을 더 개선할 수 있으리라고 기대된다.

The present study has been carried out to analyze the flow characteristics in the inlet expasion duct of a heat recovery steam generator by using numerical flow analysis. The inlet of HRSG corresponds the outlet of gas turbine exit and the flow after gas turbine has strong swirl flow and turbulence. The inlet flow condition of HRSG should be included the exit flow characteristics of gas turbine. The present numerical analysis adopted the flow analysis result of gas turbine exit flow as a inlet flow condition of HRSG analysis. Because the flow characteristics in the inlet duct of the tube bank is strongly related to the performance of a HRSG, it is most important for the optimal design of HGSG to understanding the flow phenomena in the inlet duct of HRSG. From the present study, the position of breakpoint in the inlet expansion duct should be lower than the reference breakpoint position for the optimal flow uniformity before the tube bank.

Ryu et al. proposed a multiple target DOA tracking algorithm using a linear sensor array. In Ryu's algorithm first, the signal subspace is estimated using sensor output and the angular innovations of targets are extracted from the estimated signal subspace. Next, the DOA's of targets are tracked using the angular innovations as the inputs of Kalman filters. Ryu's algorithm has good features that it has no data association problem and is efficient. However, Ryu's algorithm can't be a lied to an arbitrarily shaped array because it was proposed using linear sensor array. Actually, when the sensor array is used in the various application fields, sensors have a position error. Therefore, the sensor array can be an arbitrarily shaped array. In this paper, we propose a multiple target DOA tracking algorithm applicable to an arbitrarily shaped array, and it sustains the good features of Ryu's algorithm.

The 5G communication system employs the millimeter wave with the extremely high frequency. Since the high frequency signal has the strong straightness, the beamforming technology based on the multiple base stations is required for services covering wide range. The beamformer needs the angle-of-arrival(AOA) information of the signal incident to the antenna, and it is generally estimated through the high resolution AOA estimation algorithm such as Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) or Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariacne Technique (ESPRIT). Although various antenna array shapes can be employed for the beamformer, a single shape (square, circle, or hexagonal) is typically utilized. In this paper, we introduce a transmitting/receiving beamforming system based on the combined array antenna with square and circular shapes, which is proper to various frequency signals, and evaluate its performance. For evaluating the performance of the proposed beamforming system based on the combined array antenna, we implement the computer simulation employing various scenarios.

A structural model of the SNF(spent nuclear fuel) disposal canister for the PWR(pressurized water reactor) for about 10,000 years long term deposition at a 500m deep granitic bedrock repository has been developed through various structural safety evaluations. The SNF disposal baskets of this canister model have the array type whose four square cross section baskets stand parallel to each other and symmetrically with respect to the center of the canister section. However, whether this developed structural model of the SNF disposal canister is optimal is not determinable yet. Especially, there is still a problem in weight-reduction of the canister. The cross section shape of the SNF basket should be changed to solve this problem. There are two ways in changing the cross section shape of the SNF basket; the one is to rotate the cross section itself and the other is to change the cross section shape as other shape different from the square cross section. The previous study shows that the canister with $30{\sim}35^{\circ}$ rotated basket array is structurally more stable than the canister with un-rotated parallel basket array. However, whether this canister with rotated basket array is optimal is not either determinable as yet, because it is not revealed that the canister with other cross section different from the square cross section is structurally more stable than other canisters. Therefore, the structural analysis of the SNF disposal canister with other cross section shape which is also symmetric with respect to the canister center planes is very necessary. The structural analysis of the canister with various cross section shape basket array in which each basket is arrayed symmetrically with respect to the center planes is carried out in this paper. The structural analysis result shows that the SNF disposal canister with circular cross section shape baskets located symmetrically with respect to the center of the canister section is structurally more stable than the previously developed SNF disposal canister with the parallel basket array.

본 연구는 개수로 흐름에서 조류발전단지의 터빈 최적 배열의 거시적 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 천수방정식을 통해 직사각형 개수로의 흐름장을 해석하였고, 상류와 하류단에 대해 각각 유입경계조건(inlet boundary condition)과 Flather 형식의 개방경계조건(open boundary condition)을 부여하여 일정 유량으로 흐르는 개수로 흐름을 구현하였다. 더불어, Strickler의 법칙을 확장한 반력공식을 연계하여, 개수로 흐름에 대한 조류 터빈의 영향을 반영하였다. 주어진 상류의 흐름 조건에 대해 조류발전량을 최대로 하는 최적 배열을 구하기 위해 터빈 반력모형을 연계한 천수방정식, 터빈간 최소간격, 그리고 발전단지영역을 제한조건으로 하는 발전량 최대화 문제를 구성하였다. 여기서 조류 터빈의 위치를 나타내는 벡터를 설계변수로 두었는데, 설계되는 터빈의 수가 증가함에 따라 최적화 문제의 계산량이 증가하지 않도록 수반법(adjoint method)을 경사도기반법(gradient-based method)에 연계한 방법이 이용되었다. 다수의 터빈초기배치로 상당한 수치실험이 수행되었고, 발전량 최대화를 이루도록 최적화된 터빈의 배치들이 큰 규모에서 고유한 형상으로 수렴함을 확인하였다. 이러한 특성은 발전단지의 너비와 터빈의 최소간격의 함수로 정의된 무차원수 E를 바탕으로 설명되었다. 구체적으로, E가 1보다 작을 때에는 선형배열이 최적배열로 나타났고, E가 1을 넘어 점차 커짐에 따라 하류에 오목한 형상을 보이다가 V-형태로 발전하는 양상을 보였다. 또한, 어느 임계 수 이상의 터빈이 배치되는 경우 일열 배열을 유지하지 못하고 이열 배열로 분리됨이 관찰되었다.

An underwater sound surveillance system detects and tracks enemy ships in real-time using hydrophone arrays, in which seabed-mounted sensor arrays play a pivotal role. In this paper the conceptual design of seabed-mounted, cylindrical hydrophone arrays for use in shallow coastal waters is performed via finite element calculations. To stabilize the receiving characteristics under the ocean ambient noise, a technique for whitening the ambient noise spectrum using a metal baffle is proposed. Optimization of the array configuration is performed to achieve the directivity in the vertical and azimuthal directions. And the effects of the sonar dome shape and material on the structural vibration and sound scattering properties are studied. It is demonstrated that a robust hydrophone array, having a sensitivity deviation less than 4 dB over the frequency range of interest, can be obtained through the whitening of the ambient noise, the optimization of the array configuration, and the design of acoustically transparent sonar domes.
