A simple and straightforward method is introduced for developing continuum beam-rod model of a box-beam typed aircraft wing with composite layered skin based on "energy equivalence." The equivalent continuum structral properties are obtained from the direct comparison of the reduced stiffness and mass matrices for box-beam typed wing with those for continuum beam-rod model. The stiffness and mass matrices are all represented in terms of the continuum degrees-of freedom defined in this paper. The finite-element method. The advantage of the present continuum method is to give every continuum structural properties including all possible coupling terms which represent the couplings between different deformations. To evaluate the continuum method developed in this paper, free vibration analyses for both continuum beam-rod and box-beam are conducted. Numerical tests show that the present continuum method gives very reliable structural and dynamic properties compared to the results by the conventional finite-element analysis. analysis.

Fault detection and isolation(FDI) and reconfigurable flight control system provide better survivability even though actuator faults occur. In this study, a new fault detection and isolation algorithm is proposed using fuzzy logic. When the FDI system detects the actuator fault, the fuzzy logic investigates the state variables to find which actuator has fault. Proposed fuzzy detection algorithm detect not only a single fault but also multiple faults. After detecting the fault, the reconfigurable flight control system begins operating for compensating the effects of the fault. A numerical simulation using six degree-of-freedom nonlinear aircraft model is performed to verity the performance of the proposed fault detection and isolation scheme.

In this paper, various webs of I-shaped beam used in aircraft spars are examined. Under the assumption that an aircraft spar is a cantilevered beam with a constant cross-section and is subjected to only bending, four kinds of webs are analyzed for three different sizes. To enable comparison, each hole has the same area and are subjected to the same load by using EDISON 2D Continuum analysis. While circular hole is the most often used, elliptic one is obtained with the minimum von-Mises stress by about 40% decreased. To verify the results gathered by EDISON, comparison was made with ANSYS and analytic predictions obtained with the stress intensity factor K. As comparison shows insignificant discrepancies, it is concluded that a well-designed beam with elliptic holes will be the most efficient spar regarding weight to rigidity ratio in terms of the bending stress.

착륙장치는 완충장치를 이용하여 항공기 착륙 시의 충격을 흡수하는 역할을 한다. 여러 방식의 완충장치가 있으나, Oil에 의한 감쇠력과 Gas에 의한 스프링력을 이용하여 에너지를 흡수하는 유공압 방식이 가장널리 사용되고 있다. 착륙장치 성능해석에서는 다양한 착륙조건에 대한 Dynamic simulation을 통해 최적의 Orifice 형상과 Gas spring 특성을 결정하고, 설계에 필요한 착륙하중을 구하게 된다. 이 논문에서는 상용 프로그램인 VI-Aircraft를 이용한 착륙장치 성능해석 과정을 소개한다. 유공압 완충장치의 모델링 및 Landing simulation 결과를 분석하고, 이에 따른 완충효율 최적화 과정을 제시한다.

항공기의 날개에 걸리게 되는 하중은 설계단계에서 고정되기 때문에 이륙과 착륙 같은 특수한 상황에서는 Flap이나 슬렛 등의 고양력 장치를 이용하여 날개 단면 형상을 변화시킴으로서 양력계수의 변화를 유도하고 그에 따라 각 임무별 최적의 공력 성능을 제공할 수 있게 된다. 따라서 본 논문은 에어포일의 보다 효율적인 양력을 위해 slotted flap사이에 양력 향상 Tab을 설치하여 EDISON-CFD을 이용하여 분석하였다. 그리고 그 효과와 익형에 얻어지는 양력계수를 비교하였다. 에어포일의 Slotted Flap에 양력 향상 Tab의 유무에 따른 유동 장을 분석하여 양력을 수치 해석 적으로 비교해 보았다. 결과에서 얻어진 상수를 비교하였고 양력 향상 Tab의 효과를 분석해 보았다.

수치제어(Numerical control)의 개념은 1800년대부터 시작되었다. 프랑스의 Joseph Jacquard는 1801년에 구멍을 낸 카드(Perforated cards)를 이용하여 베틀기계에 직물의 모양을 Design하는데 자동적으로 Control 하는 방법을 창조해냈다. 그 후 구멍을 낸 카드를 이용하여 페달을 밟아 얻어진 공기를 Air motor와 Valve 를 조정하므로서 자동적으로 Piano를 연주하게 하는 방법도 역시 수치제어다. 이 NC의 개념이 실제 공작기계 에 적용된 것은 제2차 대전후의 일이다. 미공군(US Air force)에서는 복잡한 형상의 항공기부품가공과 그것을 검사할 검사용 Gauge를 고정밀도로 효율있게 제작할 필요성이 절실해졌다. 미국 Michigan주 Traverse시에 있던 Parsons회사도 Helicopter의 Rotor blade의 윤곽을 정확하게 검사하는 Plate gauge를 가공할 수 있는 기계를 개발하고 있었으며 그 회사의 사장 John T. Parsons씨는 Jig boringmachine을 전자적으로 제어하는 Plate gauge를 가공하는 방법을 미공군에 제안을 하였다. 1948년 미공군에서는 설계번경이 수없이 일어나는 Missile 의 부품을 단시간 내로 제작하기 위해서 Persons사와 기술계약을 맺고 새로운 공작기계 개발에 착수하므로서 NC공작기계 연구를 시작한 역사적인 시발점이 되었다.

The importance of stealth technology is increasing in modern warfare, and Radar Cross Section(RCS) is widely used as an indicator of stealth technology. It is useful to measure RCS using an image-based near-field to far-field transformation algorithm in short-range monostatic conditions. However, the near-field measurement system requires a longer measurement time compared to other methods. In this work, it is proposed to reduce the measured data using an interpolation method in azimuth angular domain. The calculated far-field RCS values according to the sampling rate is shown, and the performance of the algorithm applied with interpolation in the angular domain is presented. It is shown that measurement samples can be reduced several times by using the redundancy in the angular domain while producing results similar to the conventional method.

Hardened layer and compressive residual stress created by carburized treatment effect on bending strength of gear massively. Also, shot peening treatment improves the strength of carburized gear as it does the hardness and residual stress of surface layer. In these days shot peening techniques are welcomed as one of physical improvement ways around the surface of materials. It is used widely because qualitative analysis of shot peening has become possible and surface treatment can be done with very little costs comparaed to other surface improvement methods. Therefore this study investigates the effect of shot peening in surface shape and bending fatigue strength after doing many kinds of shot peening treatments, then doing fatigue test and also explained characteristics of shot peening gear.
