The application of a reliable motion simulator can contribute effectively in the evaluation of the performance of a vehicle platform in the development stage of a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Therefore, the research on a reliable motion simulator can accelerate the development of UAV and decrease the relevant cost. In this paper, the design factors considered in the preliminary design stage of a 6 degree-of freedom motion simulator are defined and the motion range of the simulator is described on the basis of these design factors. The length, acceleration, and the required thrust of actuators with respect to the motion simulator under development are also predicted. The motion range can be increased and a suitable actuator can be selected and produced by applying these results in the manufacturing process of the motion simulator. Thus, the reliability of the motion simulators can be achieved during the actual design operation of the UAV.

A dynamic analysis procedure is developed to provide a better estimation of the dynamic responses of bridge during the passage of high speed railway vehicles. Particularly, a three dimensional numerical model including the structural interaction between high speed vehicles, bridges and railway endures to analyse accurately and evaluate with in-depth parametric studies for dynamic responses of various bridge span lengths running KTX railway locomotive up to increasing maximum speed(450km/h). Three dimensional frame element is used to model the simply supported pre-stressed concrete (PSC) box bridges for four span lengths(40~25m). Track irregularity employed as a stationary random process from the given spectral density functions and irregularities of both sides of the track are assumed to have high correlation. The high-speed railway vehicle (KTX) is used as 38-degree of freedom system. Three displacements (Vertical, lateral, and longitudinal) as well as three rotational components (Pitching, rolling, and yawing) are considered in the 38-degree of freedom model. The dynamic amplification factors are evaluated by the developed procedure under various traveling conditions, such as track irregularity camber, train speed and ballast. The dynamic analysis such as Newmark-${\beta}$ and Runge-Kutta methods which are able to analyse considering the dynamic impact factors are compared and contrasted.

This paper describes principles and experimental results in conjunction with examining the possibility of the detection of effects from a cylindrical objects. Cylindrical objects have its own resonance frequency. The frequency varies according to the diameter, length etc. And acoustic sound, whose frequency and the harmonic components corresponding to resonance frequency, is radiated from the object. When an object have defect in itself, the radiated acoustic sound is different from normal one. So we can detect its defect by analysing frequency components of acoustic sound. We proved that detection of defective objects by acoustic signal analysis is possible automatically. Also the result can be applied to other kinds of objects.

During feeding oxidizer to the engine, vortices are occurred at lower dome of oxidizer tank inside by various working environments and external forces for liquid propellant feeding system of space launch vehicle. To eliminate the vortices or swirls Anti-Vortex Devices(AVD) shall be installed at inside lower oxidizer tank. Using the numerical analysis, we have confirmed the performance of AVD and analyzed the mass flow rate by feeding time and magnitudes of swirls on the free surface of oxidizer or exit surface according to the AVD number and length. Then we could derive the optimal design of the AVD number and length.

A commercially available soft PZT wafer that is poled in thickness direction is subjected to longitudinal tensile stress loading in both short and open-circuit conditions. Variations of electric displacement in thickness direction and in-plane strains are measured over time during the loading. Different material responses in the two electrical boundary conditions are explained by the effects of piezoelectrically produced internal electric field on linear material moduli and domain switching mechanisms. Finally, a free energy model of normal distribution is introduced to explain the observed creep behavior, and its predictions are compared with experimental observations.

We proposed a robust body part tracking system for intelligent environment that will not limit freedom of users. Unlike any previous gesture recognizer, we upgraded the generality of the system by creating the ability the ability to recognize details, such as, the ability to detect the difference between long sleeves and short sleeves. For the precise each body part tracking, we obtained the image of hands, head, and feet separately from a single camera, and when detecting each body part, we separately chose the appropriate feature for certain parts. Using a calibrated camera, we transferred 2D detected body parts into the 3D posture. In the experimentation, this system showed advanced hand tracking performance in real time(50fps).

When emulsion explosives(1kg/cartridge) are loaded into a long vertical borehole at open blasting site, they undergo an Impact corresponding to 117.6J of shock energy. After shocking. the crystallization of emulsion nay happen immediately. Furthermore, it nay cause a desensitization, arising from increase in the density of emulsion explosive by the breakage of sensitizer. In this paper, some experimental work was performed using PVC pipe equipment(50mm diameter and 12m lengths) to investigate the effects of loading impart of emulsion explosive. It is shown that detonation energy decreases up to 26% of the normal state value and this effect is less than 3% of the total performance of emulsion explosives in borehole blasting.

본 연구는 하천을 가로막고 있는 기능을 상실한 횡단구조물 철거를 통하여 하천 생물들이 자유로이 이동할 수 있는 생태통로를 복원하기 위한 연구이다. 이를 위하여 기능을 상실한 보인 경기도 연천군 전곡읍 한탄강 소재의 길이 190m, 높이 2.8m 규모의 고탄보를 철거하여 철거에 의한 보 상하류에서 하상변동과 하천형태 변화와 같은 물리적 영향, 수질 변화와 같은 화학적 영향, 보 상하류에서의 어류/저서동물/식생의 생태 서식처 변화와 같은 생물적 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 어류의 경우, 철거 이전에 보 최상류역 대조구간에서 조사된 16종이 26종으로 늘어났으며, 특히, 뱀장어, 강준치, 쏘가리와 같은 어류의 개체수가 증가되었다. 보 철거를 통하여 이동통로가 확보됨으로써 종다양도 지수가 전반적으로 상회하는 경향을 나타내었다. 저서무척추동물의 경우, 보 철거로 인하여 정수역었던 곳이 유수역으로 변모함에 따라 철거 전에 출현했던 잠자리와 다슬기 종류는 발견되지 않았던 반면, 철거 전에 출현되지 않았던 날도래류가 출현하는 등 출현 종에 다소의 변화를 보였다.

Since horizontal movements due to shrinkage and thermal gradients in concrete pavements involve no actual load, the stresses induced will be those due to closing of the pavement joints and subbase friction. Consequently, complete derivations of stiffness matrix and equivalent nodal loads due to planar effects on the concrete pavements was throughly undertaken using the finite rectangular elements with two degrees of freedom at each node. The numerical example shows that the tensile stress induced in a pavement due to concrete shrinkage might be negligible except at very long slab and very high coefficient of frictions. However the stresses in conjunction with principal traffic loads might cause cracking problems.
