This paper proposes an enhanced object tracking algorithm to compensate the lack of temporal information in existing particle swarm optimization based object trackers using the trajectory of the target object. The proposed scheme also enables the tracking and documentation of the location of an online updated set of distractions. Based on the trajectories information and the distraction set, a rule based approach with adaptive parameters is utilized for occlusion detection and determination of the target position. Compare to existing algorithms, the proposed approach provides more comprehensive use of available information and does not require manual adjustment of threshold values. Moreover, an effective weight adjustment function is proposed to alleviate the diversity loss and pre-mature convergence problem in particle swarm optimization. The proposed weight function ensures particles to search thoroughly in the frame before convergence to an optimum solution. In the existence of multiple objects with similar feature composition, this algorithm is tested to significantly reduce convergence to nearby distractions compared to the other existing swarm intelligence based object trackers.

최근 경수로 핵연료 손상 원인 중의 하나인 연료봉 마모(Fretting Wear)가 지지격자의 스프링력 저하뿐만 아니라 원자로 냉각재 유동에 기인한 집합체 진동(Self-excited Fuel Assembly Vibration)에 의해 유발될 수 있는 것으로 밝혀져 해외 연료공급자들은 새로운 연료개발시 집합체 유동시험을 수행하여 냉각재 유동에 의한 집합체 진동 여부를 확인하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경수로 핵연료집합체에 대한 모드해석 및 진동시험으로부터 고유진동수 및 진동모드형태를 구하여 모의 집합체 유동시험 결과와 비교 평가하였고 냉각재 유동에 의해 과도한 집합체 진동이 발생됨을 확인하였으며 가연성흡수봉집합체를 삽입한 경우에 대한 유동시험 결과와도 비교하였다. 또한, 이들 집합체의 진동 변위량과 손상 연료의 마모량 분포의 상관성을 비교 평가하였다.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the seismic performance of the low-rise RC apartment buildings having piloties at ground level by using nonlinear static analysis with regards to the maximum considered and design earthquakes in Korea. To do this, the target displacement at roof was estimated according to FEMA356 (or ASCE/SEI-41), and the deformations of the critical members were compared with the failure criteria of Life Safety(LS) and Collapse Prevention(CP) given in FEMA356. The conclusions are as follows: (1) columns satisfy criteria of LS and CP, but (2) the shear wall in the longitudinal direction failed to satisfy those of both LS and CP while those in the transverse direction satisfy that of LS, but failed that of CP.

In this study, the detailed fuel assembly stress analysis model to evaluate the structural integrity for seismic and blowdown accidents is developed. For this purpose, as the first step, the program MAIN which identifies the worst bending mode shaped fuel assembly(FA) in core model is made. And the finite element model for stress calculation of FA components is developed. In the model the fuel rods (FRs) and the guide thimbles are modelled by 3-dimensional beam elements, and the spacer grid spring is modelled by a linear and relational spring. The constraints come from the results of the program MAIN. The stress analysis of the 16$\times$16 type FA under arbitary seismic load is performed using the developed program and modelling technique as an example. The developed stress model is helpful for the stress calculation of FA components for seismic and blowdown loads to evaluate the structural integrity of FA.

2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터는 기하학적 형상이 가변트러스 구조로 되어 있으며 조인트의 구동원으로 사용되는 엑츄에이터는 2가지의 변위, 즉 최대 및 최소 변위만으로 동작한다. 따라서 작업영역은 연속적으로 주어지는 일반 로봇 머니퓰레이터와는 달리 유한 개의 위치 벡터의 집합 형태로 나타난다. 기존의 역기구학적 해석방법을 적용하기 어려운 2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터의 불연속적인 특성에 대해 새로운 작업영역과 역기구학 문제를 정의하였다. 유전 알고리즘을 사용하여 새로이 정의된 문제의 역기구학적 해석을 수행하였으며 유전 알고리즘이 2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터의 역기구학적 해석에 있어서 효과적이고 강건한 방법임을 보여주었다.

The purpose of this paper is to present an photoelasticity technique for measuring the displacement and stress distribution in particle assembly subjected to shallow foundation loading. Photoelastic measurement technique was employed to visualize the force transmission of a particle assembly. A model assembly bounded by a steel frame was built by stacking bi-dimensional circular particles made of polycarbonate elastomer. Each particle was coated by a thin photoelastic sheet so that the force transmission represented by bright light stripes can be visualized. In a contacted particle, both magnitude and orientation of principal stress difference can also be measured via the photoelasticity technique. The different distributions of the contact stresses at the initial loading and near the failure were quantitatively compared. The photoelastic patterns and displacement fields observed in the pre-failure state disappears immediately after the buckling of confined force chains.

To measure the soil deformation, two common techniques of the digital image analysis-Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Digital Image Correlation (DIC)-have been used. To generally apply these techniques to the soils, the accuracy of these techniques should be evaluated under various conditions. In this study, the influence factors including the image resolution, the degree of displacement and deformation, the size of pixel subsets, and analysis techniques were analyzed. The deformation of an idealized particle assembly using the discrete element method was measured by the digital image analyses, and then the results were compared with the actual deformations. To conduct the optimal digital image analysis, various factors are systematically analyzed in terms of the degree of the displacement and the deformation.

The effect of pipe breaks in the secondary side is investigated as a part of the fuel assembly qualification program. Using the detailed dynamic analysis of a reactor core, peak responses for the motions induced from pipe breaks are obtained for a detailed core model. The secondary side pipe breaks such as main steam line and economizer feedwater line braksare considered because leak-before-break methodology has provided a technical basis for the elimination of double ended guillotine breaks of all high energy piping systems with a diameter of 10 inches or over in the primary side from the design basis. The dynamic responses such as fuel assembly shear force, bending moment, axial force and displacement, and spacer grid impact loads are carefully investigated. Also, the stress analysis is performed and the effect of the secondary side pipe breaks on the fuel assembly structural integrity under the faulted condition is addressed.
