The moment responses of electric pole foundations for a railway were investigated using real-scale load tests. Large overturning moments were applied to two circular rigid piles with a 0.75 m diameter and a 2.5 m embedded depth; the circular rigid piles were installed in an actual railway embankment fill. Two different loading directions-toward the fill slope and toward the track -were applied to evaluate the influence of the fill slope on the moment capacities of the foundations. It was found that the failure of the foundations that were constructed according to Korean railway practices exhibited a sudden overturning pattern without any significant pre-failure displacement. The moment capacity toward the fill slope was less than the moment capacity toward the track by 30%. From the test results, the geometry factor (K), which accounted for the reduction of the moment capacity, due to the fill slope, was 0.7. Moment capacities determined from the load tests were compared with those predicted from three existing design methods, and their applicability was discussed.

Recently, construction of the reinforced earth structures, which adopts reinforcing materials of geosynthetic, is rapidly increasing due to its good economic advantages, beautiful appearance, and convenient construction. Nonetheless, the most important factor of interpretation and design of the reinforced earth structures, which is assessment ways of friction features between earth and geosynthetic, has not been standardized yet. It has great difference of interpretation and design methods which suggested to the design engineer. This study is to present the way how to assess more reasonably friction features between geogrid and weathered granite soil through the pullout test. Based on a large-scale pullout test of geogrid, the maximum shear stress, interface fricton angle, and friction efficiency are presented with consideration of various test condition.

Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. constructed a gas turbine engine test cell to verify operating characteristics and design parameters of 5MW class gas turbine engine for power generation under developing. Engine test cell was designed to satisfy critical requirements to scrutinize all performance parameters of the engine with safe and reliability in accordance with design specification. As the test cell developed can effectively reproduce engine operation conditions covering from start-up to maximum power condition, it can be utilized to make a continuing design improvement of the engine based on practical test data at full stretch. Moreover, it is expected to be serviceable to develop derivative engines and be utilized to put them into serial production and contribute to a competitiveness reenforcement as a gas turbine engine manufacturer.

연직차수벽은 오염지역이나 폐기물 매립장에서 오염된 지하수 (때로는 오염된 수증기) 흐름을 차단하거나 또는 오염지역의 정화처리시 효율을 높이기 위하여 외부로부터 지하수 흐름을 막기 위해 설치된다. 이 논문에서는 연직차수벽의 가장 중요한 설계요소인 차수벽체의 현장 투수성을 평가하는 방법들중 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 단공식 순간 변위시험 (slug test)을 소개한다. 연직차수벽에서 실행된 단공식 순간 변위시험 결과를 해석하기 위해서, 연직차수벽의 압축성과 기하학적인 특성을 고려한 수정된 linear curve fitting 방법을 제안하고 그 적용성을 case study를 통해 평가한다. 기존의 대수층 투수계수 산정에 이용된 curve fitting 방법들에 비하여 수정된 linear curve fitting 방법은 보다 정확한 연직차수벽체의 투수성을 평가하도록 한다.

전력량계가 기계식에서 전자식으로 변화되면서 전력량계 교체주기의 재설정이 요구되고 있다. 현재까지는 기계식 전력량계의 교체주기를 적용하여 7년으로 교체주기를 정하고 있으나 기계식과 전자식은 차이가 있으므로 전자식 전력량계의 적정한 교체주기를 결정하여야 한다. 적정한 교체주기를 결정하기 위해서는 전자식 전력량계의 수명평가가 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 전자식 전력량계의 부품 분석을 통하여 전자식 전력량계의 수명에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 부품을 선정하고, 선정된 부품에 대하여 가속수명시험을 실시하였다. 가속수명시험 결과로부터 부품들의 수명을 추정하고, 수명이 가장 짧아서 전자식 전력량계의 수명을 결정하는 부품의 종류를 확인하였다. 전력량계의 수명은 가장 짧은 수명을 갖는 부품의 수명에 의존하므로 부품들의 수명 추정 결과로부터 전력량계의 수명을 평가할 수 있었다. 또한, 수명이 가장 짧은 부품에 대하여 목표 수명 이상의 수명을 가짐을 보증하기 위한 시험기준을 설계하였다.

This paper describes performance design of a solid rocket motor on which thrust cut-off system is installed, and evaluates performance of a rocket motor according to a size of TCO ports. TCO system installed on motors was made to carry out firing tests, and the trend of thrust due to various sizes of TCO port was analyzed to find the existence of the port size for maximum reversal thrust. Conservation equations were used to design performance of motors and to analyze test results. This technique for performance design will be usefully applied to the design of similar TCO systems.

This paper deals with attitude controller design and integrated performance tests on the nitrogen gas reaction control system of KSLV-I. Some major factors which are necessarily required in designing a stabilizing controller of reaction control system are investigated, and the corresponding equations are given. Experimental configurations and test conditions for system level integrated performance tests of the KSLV-I nitrogen gas reaction control system are summarized. It is shown that, based on the experimental data, operational performances of nitrogen gas reaction control system can be analyzed in terms of gas consumption, thrusting force, time delay, and specific impulse. It is also shown that a conformance of the controller to flight can be evaluated. Finally the onboard controller of KSLV-I reaction control system is shown to perform normally with enough stability margin via the first flight test result.

Application of combustion stabilization devices such as baffle and acoustic cavity to liquid propellant rocket engine is investigated to suppress high-frequency combustion instability, i.e., acoustic instability. First, these damping devices are designed based on linear damping theory. As a principal design parameter， damping factor is considered and calculated numerically in the chambers with/without these devices. Next, the unbaffled chambers with/without acoustic cavities are tested experimentally for several operating conditions. The unbaffled chamber shows the peculiar stability characteristics depending on the operating condition and it is found to have small dynamic stability margin. As a result, the acoustic cavity with the present design has little stabilization effect in this specific chamber. Finally， stability rating tests are conducted with the baffled chamber, where evident combustion stabilization is observed, which indicates sufficient damping effect.
