The pullout test is a nondestructive testing method certified by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and British Standards (BS). Research has shown that it is very reliable in terms of evaluating the concrete strength of reinforced concrete members. However, the pullout test is rarely performed on domestic construction sites due to the complex procedures and high costs involved. This study proposes a new pullout test composed of a post installable break-off bolt, an insert nut, and a pullout tester, which satisfy both economical and practical purposes on a construction site. Three different types of special fastening methods, a temporary fixed bolt, a plastic fixed panel, and a fixed bar, have been developed. A pullout tester is proposed that is driven by the circle force introduced into a handle composed of eight gears without a load cell and a hydraulic cylinder. The serviceability and reliability of these instruments were investigated through experiments at construction sites. Furthermore, the sample pullout test with a wall specimen was conducted to estimate the usefulness of the temporary fixed bolt type of fastening methods and pullout devices. Eventually, the developed instruments will be useful on construction sites if minor requirements are met.

The rotor blade is a key component that generates the lift, thrust, and control forces required for helicopter flight by the torque transmitted through the hub and the blade pitch angle control, and should be designed to factor vibration characteristics so that there is no risk of resonance with structural safety. In this study, the structural design of the main rotor blade for MPUH(Multi-Purpose Unmanned Helicopter) was conducted and the sectional stiffness measurement of the fabricated blade was performed. The evaluation of the vibration characteristics of the main rotor system was then conducted factoring the measured stiffness distribution. The interior of the rotor blade comprised of the skin, spar, and torsion box, and carbon and glass fiber composites were applied. The Ksec2D program was applied to predict the stiffness of blade, and the results were compared to the measured data. CAMRADII, a comprehensive rotorcraft analysis program, was applied to investigate the natural frequency trends and resonance risks due to the rotor rotation.

The tripod shafts of constant-velocity joint are used in both the trains KTX and KTX-sanchon. It is an important component that connects the motor reduction unit and the axle reduction unit in a power bogie. The tripod shaft not only transmits drive and brake torque in the rotational direction, but also slides in the axial direction. If the drive system is loaded with an excessive torque, the fuse part of the shaft will be fractured firstly to protect the other important components. In this study, a rig was developed for conducting torsion tests on the tripod shaft, which is a type of mechanical fuse. The tripod shafts were subjected to torsional fracture test and torsional fatigue test on the rig. The weak zone of the tripod shaft was identified, and its fatigue life was predicted using finite element analysis (FEA). After analyzing the FEA results, design solutions were proposed to improve the strength and fatigue life of the tripod shaft. Furthermore, the deterioration trend and time for failure of the tripod shaft were verified using the hysteresis loops which had been changed with the advancement of the torsional fatigue test.

일반적으로 내화재의 내침식성은 크롬 함량이 증가함에 따라 향상되는 특성을 가지는데, 본 연구에서는 이러한 크롬 내화재의 물성을 보다 향상시키기 위하여 인산염 화합물인 $AlPO_4$를 첨가하는 실험을 진행하였으며, 이러한 실험 결과 선정된 $AlPO_4$ 1% 첨가 크롬 내화재를 대상으로 캐스타블 및 브릭 형태로 각각 제작하였을 때 내침식 특성에 대해 회전 침식 시험장치를 이용한 실험을 실시하였는데, 실험 결과 캐스타블에 비해 브릭 내화재가 내침식성이 우수하지만 일부 spalling이 발생하는 것으로 파악되었다. 그리고, 가스화기로의 석탄 공급 방식에 따라 내화재 벽면에서 발생하는 석탄입자에 의한 내화재 침식 정도에 대한 전산해석을 수행한 결과 top feeding에 비해 side feeding 방식이 내화재 전면에 걸쳐 침식 현상이 크게 발생할 것으로 예측되어 보다 크롬 함량이 많은 내화재를 선정해야 할 것으로 평가되었다.

일반 항공기의 유형을 고정익기과 회전익기로 구별할 수 있다면, MAV (Micro Air Vehicle)의 경우는 곤충이나 조류들의 날개 짓 (flapping) 비행형태인 ornithopter 형이 추가된다. 1993년 미국 RAND사에 의하여 MAV에 대한 타당성 검토(1)가 시작된 이례로 실로 다양한 실험적 형태의 MAV들이 속속 소개되고 있는 실정이다. MAV는 초소형 무인항공기로 길이는 성인의 손바닥 크기인 2.5 inch 정도이고, 개발비용과 기간이 유인항공기에 비해서는 비교할 수 없을 정도로 적게 소요되며. 동체길이가 2~5m인 일반 무인항공기에 비해서도 상대적으로 유리하다는 장점, 그리고 새로운 소형화 기술들을 평가할 수 있는 매우 훌륭한 시험장치가 될 수 있다는 이유로 항공우주기술 분야는 물론 MEMS나 나노기술 분야에서도 상당한 관심을 갖고 있는 실정이다. MAV의 비행 시뮬레이션 또는 시뮬레이터에 대한 현재까지의 국내외 연구개발 노력(2,3)은 MAV의 기체나 부품기술개발 노력에 비하여 상대적으로 뒤쳐져 있는데, 본 논문은 그 기술적 문제가 무엇인지를 분석하고, MAV비행 시뮬레이터 환경을 통해 수행될 수 있는 효과적인 연구개발 분야는 무엇인지를 조명하고자 한다. 또한, MAV비행 시뮬레이터의 성능 요구사항 도출을 통하여 개념설계를 제시하고, 세종대학교와 (주)모델심이 공동 개발중인 "RC Virtual Flight" 비행 시뮬레이터에 MAV가 어떻게 접목되고 있는지를 소개한다.있는지를 소개한다.

현재 유통되고 있는 일반백미의 경우 소비자가 밥을 짓기 위해서는 쌀을 씻어야하는 번거로움 뿐만아니라 쌀 중량의 약 15배의 물이 소요되고, 또한 이때 발생된 쌀뜨물이 수질오염의 원인이 되기 때문에 무세미가공 및 보급 필요성이 점차 높아지고 있다. 무세미 가공분야의 선진국인 일본의 경우 ‘92년부터 습식 무세미조제기가 실용화되기 시작, 현재 사다께 등 6개사에서 기계장치를 생산보급 하고 있으며, 무세미의 유통도 일반화되어가고 있는 추세이다. 국내의 경우 무세미조제기는 근래에서야 습식 무세미 조제설비가 국산화되어 보급초기 단계 있으며, 무세미의 안정적 가공 및 보급을 위해서는 앞으로 많은 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다. 특히 습식의 경우 쌀이 물에 접촉하는 시간이 길 경우 품질저하의 우려가 크고, 쌀중량의 1.4배에 해당하는 물이 가공과정에 필요하기 때문에 물사용량을 억제할수 있는 가공기술의 개발 필요성이 커지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 물사용량을 최소화 할 수 있는 무세미 조제시스템을 개발하고자 하였으며, 주요결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 시작기는 연마 및 공기세척부, 정전기 세척부, 미세가수세척부로 구성하여 쌀이 단계적으로 세척될 수 있도록 제작되었다. 성능시험 결과, 각 세척공정별 세척수의 탁도 감소효과는 연마 및 공기크리닝부에서 22.67ppm, 정전기 크리닝부에서 8.33ppm, 미세가수세척부에서 17.34 ppm이 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 정전기세척부의 탁도감소 효과는 다른 두공정에 비해 작지만 제거가 쉽지 않은 미세한 쌀겨들을 제거하여 탁도를 개선을 시켰기 때문에 미세가수세척장치에서 가수량을 적게 사용하는데 기여한 것으로 판단된다. 가공시 적정 탁도를 확보할 수 있는 가수량은 430cc/kg로 기존의 습식에 비해 약 69%정도 세척수 절감효과가 있었다. 이때 미세가수세척부의 원통스크린 회전수는 108, 205rpm범위가 적정한 것으로 나타났다. 쌀의 품위는 탁도가 가공전 97.33ppm(일반백미)에서 가공후 최대 48.00ppm으로 낮아졌으며, 백도도 가공전 36.80에서 42.80으로 향상되어 씻지 않고도 밥을 지을수 있는 무세미 가공이 가능하였다. 이밖에 쇄립률은 가공전 5.30%에서 7.37%로 다소 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 함수율은 가공전 15.60%에서 15.80%로 약 0.2%가 증가하였으나 기존의 연구결과에 비춰볼 때 문제가 되지 않을 것으로 여겨진다.

This paper is to provide the results of usability of the impact force response signal induced from initial and successive rebound impacting a rock specimen for assessing the compressive strength of rock non-destructively. For this study, a device was devised for impacting a rock specimen and a system for measuring the impact force was set up. The impact was carried out by an initial rotating free falling impact and following repetitive impacts from the rebound action which eventually disappears. Three different kinds of rock specimen were tested and an impact force response signal was measured for each test specimen. The total impact force signal energy which is assessed from integrating the impact force response signal induced from initial and rebound impacts was compared with the directly measured compressive strength for each rock specimen. The comparison showed that the total impact force signal energy has a direct relationship with the directly measured compressive strength and the results clearly indicated that the compressive strength of rock can be assessed non-destructively using total impact force signal energy.

Recently, nine $1397{\times}1397{\times}178mm$ RC panels were tested under in-plane pure-shear monotonic loading condition using the Panel Element Tester by Hsu (1997, ACI). By combining the equilibrium, compatibility, and the softened stress-strain relationship of concrete in biaxial state, Modern Truss Model (MCFT, RA-STM) are capable of producing the nonlinear analysis of RC membrane panel through the complicated trial-and-error method with double loop. In this paper, an efficient algorithm with one loop is proposed for the refined Mohr compatibility Method based on the strut-tie failure criteria. This algorithm can be speedy calculated to analyze the shear history of RC membrane element using the results of Hsu test. The results indicate that the response of shear deformation energy at Big Bang of shear strain significantly influenced by the principal compressive stress-strain (crushing failure).

In the present study, a feasibility study on an innovative satellite attitude control actuator is performed. The actuator is specially designed to generate the reaction torque in an arbitrary axis, so that a satellite attitude can be controlled by using itself. It consists of a spherical flywheel and electromagnets for levitation and rotation control of the ball. As the earlier study, a rotating performance test on the spherical actuator is conducted in a single rotating axis and vertical levitation condition. From the test results, it can be confirmed that the maximum speed and torque of the innovative device are 7,200rpm and 0.7Nm, respectively. Using a velocity-voltage characteristic curve of the spherical motor, an open-loop control (V/f constant control) is performed, and the test results show excellent control performance in acceleration and deceleration phases.
