Equivalent volume estimation of the coupler and two coupled microphones has a key role in standard microphone pressure calibration. The equivalent volume of the microphone is determined by the dynamic characteristics of the diaphragm system and front cavity. Therefore the modal parameters of diaphragm system - natural frequency and damping fatter - should be measured explicitly for the estimation of the equivalent volume. The diaphragm system is composed of the vibrating diaphragm, back slit behind diaphragm, pressure equalization vent, and front cavity which are acoustically coupled. In the measurement, the electrostatic actuator was used to excite the system with the swept sine, and the frequency response was obtained. The close actuator in front of the diaphragm must influence the radiation impedance of the system, and then the modal parameters. From the measured frequency response, the natural frequency and the damping factor could be estimated with the Complex exponential method based on the Prony model and the zero crossing real and imaginary plot.

최근 가압경수로 핵연료는 다양한 형태의 원자로의 개발 및 다양한 운전 방식을 요구한다. 장주기 운전이 가능한 고연소도 핵연료의 지속적인 성능 개선이 필요하다. 핵연료에서 가연성 중성자 흡수체(Burnable absorber-BA) 역할은 매우 중요하다. 다양한 원자로 및 다양한 운전방식을 대비하여 BA 제조에 유연성을 고려하면 핵연료 피복관 내부에 직접 코팅하는 것이 바람직하다. 이에 피복관 내부표면에 직접 금속도금이 가능 여부와 기존에 많이 사용하던 전해도금에서 발생되는 기포에 의한 불균질한 도금(핀홀) 문제점 해결 방안을 고안하였다. 본 연구에서는 초임계 이산화탄소와 전해도금액간의 초음파 교반을 통한 강한 진동에 의해 매크로 에멀젼을 형성시켜 피 도금 물질 표면에 얇은 막을 얻는 도금 방법을 적용하였다. 초임계 유체를 이용한 전해도금을 적용한 결과 균질한 얇은 도금 막을 증착 시켰으며, 기포에 의한 핀홀 현상을 억제하였다. 또한 전해도금액의 사용량을 최소화 하여 폐수 발생 문제를 개선하였다.

가속도 센서는 물체의 움직임, 속도의 변화, 충격, 진동 등의 동적힘을 순시적으로 감지하여 유용한 정보로 변환시키는 장치이다. 본 논문에서는 실리콘 기계 구조물과 광섬유형 Fabry - Perot 센서(FFPI)를 사용하여 광섬유 간섭계형 가속도 센서를 제작하였으며 실리콘 구조물의 구조를 변경하여 용도에 적합한 다양한 센서를 제작할 수 있음을 보였다. 광 간섭계는 그 구조에 따라 Fabry - Perot$^{[2]}$ , Mach-Zender$^{[3]}$ , Michelson$^{[4]}$ , Sagnac$^{[5]}$ 등으로 구분되면 이러한 간섭계 중에서 Fabry - Perot 간섭계는 측정영역이 두 반사막의 거리로 정확하게 정의되며 반사막의 거리를 조절하여 좁은 영역에서의 측정이 가능하고 고감도를 갖는다.

왕복동식 압축기에서 고효율 토출밸브를 개발하였다. 멈치개(stopper)가 있는 외팔보 형태의 토출 밸브는 밸브 및 멈치개의 형상과, 밸브와 멈치개 및 밸브시트에 존재하는 오일에 의한 점성력(sticky force) 등에 의한 밸브의 개폐과정과 동적 거동특성의 변화를 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 오일막에 의한 점성력을 측정하고, 그에 의하여 유발되는 지연시간(time-lag)을 측정할 수 있는 실험장치를 개발하였다. 또한, 토출밸브의 개폐과정을 최적화하여, 과압축 손실을 최소화한 토출밸브계를 개발하였다. 개발된 밸브계에 대하여 실험적인 방법으로 그 효과를 검증하였다.

In this study, the capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer(cMUT) was developed based on the previous research results. The cross sectional image of the developed cMUT was characterized. To measure the membrane displacement of the cMUT, the Michelson phase modulation fiber interferometer was constructed. The measured membrane displacement was in good agreement with the result of the finite element analysis. To estimate the ultrasonic wave generated by the cMUT, an ultrasonic system including a pulser, receiver and charge amplifier was used. The cMUT developed in this study shows a good performance and hence will be widely used in the non-contact ultrasonic applications.

Among various kinds of hearing aids which have been developed so far. the conventional air conduction hearing aids have some problems such as the acoustic distortion, an howling effect due to acoustic feedback. Another type of hearing aid. the cochlear implant system can be applied to the profound imparied person. However. it shows the disadvantage that there is no possibility of recovery of the acoustic organ such as ossicle. On the other hand. the implantable middle ear heaving device directly vibratos the ossicular chain and has better sound qualify. good cosmetics for appearance. and wide frequency responses so that it can overcome the defects or the conventional hearing aids. In this paper, a mathematical modeling and a momentum equation derivation of the DET has been performed. For the optimization of the structure dimension generating maximal vibrating force of the DET. the computer simulation using a finite element analysis (FEA) software has been performed. Also. the vibrating transducer has been designed to make the frequency characteristics or the transducer be similar to those of the normal middle ear. Through the experimental results, the measured vibration characteristics of the DET has been evaluated to verify the performance for the application to implantable middle ear hearing devices.

The analysis of linear static and free vibration problems of isotropic and laminated composite plates and shells is performed by the improved 9-node shell element with the new strain displacement relationship. In that relationship, the effect of new additional terms between the bending strain and displacement has been investigated in the warping problem. Natural co ordinate based strains, stresses and constitutive equations are used. The assumed natural strain method is used to alleviate both membrane and shear locking behavior from the element. The Lanczos method is employed in the calculation of the eigenvalues of laminated composite structures and the Gauss integration rule is adopted to evaluate the mass matrix. The numerical examples are compared with the analytical solutions to validate the current formulation and the results presented could be useful for the understanding of the behaviour of laminates under free vibration conditions.

Bone is a self-assembly material. It is known that the low amplitude and high frequency mechanical stimulus, which is much less amplitude but higher frequency than those induced by the normal activity, can induce new bone formation. The vibrating resonance is employed to elucidate why new bone is formed by this kind of mechanical stimulus. For example, as 30 Hz and $5{\mu}{\epsilon}$ mechanical stimulus is applied at the wall of canaliculus (the tiny tube type pathway of bone fluid flow and the diameter of canaliculus is less than 200nm), the osteocytic cell membrane experiences $1,000{\mu}{\epsilon}$ strain due to the vibrating resonance. Two experiments will follow after this pilot study; (1) observing the MAPK pathway of osteocytes by using in-vitro cell culture and (2) visualizing the actin filament network in the osteocytes by using the imaging technique, such as confocal laser scanning microscope.

A numerical method has been developed for studying the dynamics of a flexible cylinder in a coaxial cylindrical duct, immersed in inviscid flow. The unsteady inviscid fluid-dynamic force acting on the oscillating cylinder has been estimated more rigorously by means of a spectral collocation method without simplification of governing equations. This numerical approach is applicable to the system haying wider annular gap and/or shorter length of cylinder as compared to existing potential theory. The governing equation of the unsteady flow was obtained from Laplace equation. The equation of cylinder motion coupled with the fluid motion was discretized by Galerkin's method, from which the dynamic behaviour of the system has been evaluated. The effect of the length of the cylinder and the annular gap on the critical flour velocity, where the system loses stability by buckling, was investigated. To validate the numerical method, the potential flow theory developed by Hobson based on thin film approximation has been improved. Typical results of the present numerical theory on the dynamics and stability of the system are compared with those of available existing theory and the present approximate results. Good agreement was found between the results. It was also found that a nondimensional critical flow velocity becomes larger as increasing the annular gap and decreasing the length of cylinder.

Artificial basilar membranes made of PVDF(polyvinylidene fluoride) are manufactured using microfabrication processes. The mechanical behavior of PVDF artificial basilar membrane was measured to evaluate its performance as a mechanical frequency analyzer using scanning LDV(laser Doppler vibrometer). The experimental setup consists of the microfabricated artificial basilar membrane, a loud speaker connected to an amplifier for generating acoustic pressure of specific spectral pattern, and a scanning LDV with controlling unit for measuring the displacement of the membrane on the incoming acoustic stimulation. The microfabricated artificial basilar membrane was attached tightly upon a package containing a chamber which can be filled with silicone oil before placed on the experimental setup stage. The experiment results showed that the microfabricated artificial basilar membrane has a property as a mechanical frequency analyzer.
