This paper presents the feasibilityof a thickness mode piezoelectric oscillator to detect damages in structures. The thickness mode oscillator sensor is composed of an electronic feedback oscillator circuit and a piezoelectric thickness mode vibrator to be attached to a structure of interest. Damage to the structure causes a change in the impedance spectrum of the structure, which results in a corresponding change of a resonant frequency of the structure. The oscillator sensor can instantly detect the frequency change in a very simple manner. Feasibility of the piezoelectric oscillator sensor was verified with a sample aluminum plate where artificial cracks of different lengths and number were imposed in sequence. Validity of the measurement was confirmed through comparison of the experimental data with the results of finite element analyses of a plate with cracks.

본 논문에서는 22.9kV급 Shunt Capacitor Bank 내부 고장으로 인한 불평형 요소를 검출하기 위하여 기존의 차동전압의 크기만을 이용한 보호 방식을 검토하고, 이 보호 방식에서 발생되는 여러 문제점들을 해결하기 위한 개선 방안을 제안한다. 기존의 차동전압의 크기를 이용한 보호 방식에서는 인입단 근처에서의 고저항 아크 고장이나 접지단 근처에서의 지락 고장 등에 의해 Capacitor 소자에 손상을 입을 수 있지만, 이에 대한 고장 판정이 용이하지 않다. 따라서 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 차동전압의 주파수 계전 방식 및 접지단 전압 등을 도입하였다. 특히, 주파수 계전 요소를 도입할 경우에 비선형 부하 둥으로부터 발생되는 고조파의 영향이 없다는 것을 입증하여 부하의 종류와는 무관하게 본 논문에서 제안한 방법이 적용될 수 있음을 보였다 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘은 사례 연구를 통하여 그 타당성이 입증되었다.

2017년 12월 기준 우리나라에 등록된 자동차는 약 2,200만 이상으로, 그 증가율은 매년 증가하는 추세이다. 이러한 최근 차량대수 및 고자산인 외산차 보유율 증가는 자연재난에서 노출과 관련한 위험도를 증가시키는 주요인이 되며, 홍수발생 시 상당한 규모의 경제적 피해를 야기한다. 현재 국가연구개발사업으로 진행 중인 행정안전부(2017) 연구는 위험지역 내 차량의 공간적 분포와 차량유형별 침수심에 따른 취약성을 고려하여 어떠한 홍수사상으로부터 예상되는 차량 피해액을 추정하는 방법을 제시한 바 있다. 여기서는 어떠한 집계구 내에서 동일한 침수심 구간을 가지는 면(polygon)을 분석단위로 하고 있는 데, 이를 편의성 차원에서 벡터자료에 기반 한 연산과정을 수행할 경우 정의된 침수구역도(재해정보)의 고유 정보가 훼손되거나, 세분화된 침수심 구간에 따른 손상률 관계를 사용할 수 없는 문제점이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 격자 기반의 침수구역도와 인벤토리 지도로부터 Raster GIS 공간연산을 활용한 차량피해 산정절차를 제시하였고, 이를 신천수계 하천기본계획(경기도, 2011)에서 계획된 치수사업에 적용하여 홍수빈도별 사업시행 전후 상황에 적용하였다. 이 과정에서 침수구역도는 인벤토리 상의 집계구 면적을 고려하여 $5m{\times}5m$ 크기로 제작하였고, 동일한 격자크기로 변환된 인벤토리는 변환 전후 면적을 기준으로 할 때 거의 오차가 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 그리고 Raster 공간연산으로부터 침수편입률을 결정하는 과정에서 집계구 넘버 및 침수심 정보를 확인하기 위한 자료별 전처리 과정을 제시하였고, 여기서 집계구 넘버는 인벤토리 정보와 침수심 정보는 손상함수와 연계된다. 본 연구에서 제시한 결과는 향후 실무에서 직접 적용하는 데 활용하기 위하여 방법론과 함께 가이드라인 문서로 정리할 계획이다.

In Part 1 of this paper, the test statistics are obtained for detecting weak known signals in observations corrupted by multiplicative and first-order Markov additive noise. In this second part, the asymptotic and finite sample-size performance of several detectors are obtained and compared based on the test statistics. From the performance comparisons, it is confirmed that the dependence among interference components need to be taken into account to maintain the detection performance.

This paper reports the results of a case study for the evaluation of surface damage by using acoustic nonlinearity of surface wave. In this study, the experimental system was constructed to measure the acoustic nonlinear parameter of surface wave in an Aluminum 6061 T6 specimen of which surface was damaged by the three point bending fatigue test, and magnitudes of nonlinear parameter measured before and after the fatigue test were compared. Especially, since the surface fatigue damage by the three point bending is concentrated at the central position of loading, the change in the nonlinear parameter around this position was monitored. Experimental results showed that the measured nonlinear parameter at the outside of this position after the fatigue test was almost same as the initial value before the fatigue test, since the fatigue damage at this position was little. However, clear increase in the nonlinear parameter was noticed after the fatigue test at the central position of specimen where the surface fatigue damage is expected to be concentrated.

Fast bridge construction has been increasingly needed according to the changed construction environment. This paper deals with quasi-static tests on precast piers for bridge substructures. One of the most crucial aspect of the design of precast prestressed concrete bridge piers is the seismic performance. Seven precast pier elements were fabricated. The amount of prestressing bars, the prestressing force, and the location and number of the joint between segments were the main test parameters. Test results showed that the introduced axial prestress made the restoration of the deformation under small lateral displacement and minor damage. However, there was no effect of the prestress when the plastic hinge region was damaged severely due to large lateral displacement. Judging from the observed damage, the design of the joints in precast piers should be done for the first joint between the foundation and the pier segment. The amount of the necessary prestressing steel may be designed to satisfy the P-M diagram according to the service loads, not by having the same steel ratio as normal RC bridge piers. In order to satisfy the current required displacement ductility, it is necessary to have the same amount of the transverse reinforcements as RC piers. As the steel ratio increases, the energy absorption capacity increases. The number of joints showed a little influence on the energy absorption capacity.

본 연구는 식용, 목재용, 가구용 등 유용한 상수리나무의 효율적인 양묘를 위한 기초 정보를 제공하기 위하여 용기의 종류에 따른 유묘 생장을 측정하고 조사하였다. 용기별 유묘의 엽수는 15구가 18.6개로서 24구의 18.5개보다 많았고, 엽건물중은 15구가 2.41g으로서 24구의 2.24g보다 가벼웠다. 줄기길이는 15구가 33.5cm로서 24구의 34.6cm보다 짧았고, 줄기직경은 15구가 4.48mm로서 24구의 4.77mm보다 좁았으며, 줄기건물중은 15구가 1.40g으로서 24구의 1.53g보다 가벼웠다. 뿌리길이는 15구가 39.2cm로서 24구의 49.1cm보다 짧았고, 뿌리건물중은 15구가 7.60g으로서 24구의 6.92g보다 무거웠다. 그리고 식물체건물중은 15구가 11.4g으로서 24구의 10.7g보다 무거웠다. 지상부와 지하부 (S/R) 비율은 15구가 0.50으로서 24구의 0.55보다 낮았다. 이와 같이 재배 용기의 크기에 따른 상수리나무 유묘의 생장은 여러 생장 측정 중 뿌리길이를 제외하면 T-검정에서 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 이렇게 보면 상수리나무는 용기 크기와 유묘 생장의 상관관계가 없다고 할 수 있으나 본 실험에서 노천매장 종자의 파종상 유묘를 선별하여 이식할 때 물리적 손상이 있을 수 있어 추후 추가적인 보완 실험이 필요하였다.

This paper describes the results of experiments and numerical simulation studies on the low-velocity impact damage of two different sandwich composite panels for application to bodyshell and floor structure of the BIMODAL tram vehicle. Square test samples of 100mm sides were subjected to low-velocity impact loading using an instrumented testing machine at four impact energy levels. Part of this work presented is focused on the finite element analysis of low-velocity impact response onto a sandwich composite panels. It is based on the application of explicit finite element (FE) analysis codes LS-DYNA 3D to study the impact response of sandwich structures under low-velocity impact conditions. Material testing was conducted to determine the input parameters for the metallic and composite material model, and the effective equivalent damage model for the orthotropic honeycomb materials. Numerical and experimental results showed a good agreement for damage area and the depth of indentation of sandwich composite panels created by the impact loading.

In this paper, the quantitative damage index for reinforced concrete (RC) columns with non-seismic details were presented. They are necessary to carry out the postearthquake safety evaluation of RC buildings under 5 stories without seismic details. The static cyclic test of the RC frame sub-assemblage that was an one span and actual-sized was first conducted. The specimen collapsed by the shear failure after flexural yielding of a column, lots of cracks on the surfaces of columns and beam-column joints and the cover concrete splitting at the bottom of columns occurred. The damage levels of these kinds of columns with non-seismic details were classified to five based on the load-displacement relationship by the test result. The residual story drift ratios and crack widths were then adapted as the quantitative index to evaluate the damage limit states because those values were comparatively easy to measure right after earthquakes. The highest one among the residual story drift ratios under the similar maximum story drift ratio decided on the residual story drift ratio of each damage limit state. On the other hand, the lowest and average ones among the respective residual shear and flexural widths under the similar maximum story drift ratio decided on the residual shear and flexural widths of each damage limit state, respectively. These values for each damage limit state resulted in being smaller than those by the international damage evaluation guidelines that are for seismically designed members under the same deformations.
