  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficiency of various structural modeling schemes for evaluating seismic performances and fragility of the reactor containment building (RCB) structure in the advanced power reactor 1400 (APR1400) nuclear power plant (NPP). Four structural modeling schemes, i.e. lumped-mass stick model (LMSM), solid-based finite element model (Solid FEM), multi-layer shell model (MLSM), and beam-truss model (BTM), are developed to simulate the seismic behaviors of the containment structure. A full three-dimensional finite element model (full 3D FEM) is additionally constructed to verify the previous numerical models. A set of input ground motions with response spectra matching to the US NRC 1.60 design spectrum is generated to perform linear and nonlinear time-history analyses. Floor response spectra (FRS) and floor displacements are obtained at the different elevations of the structure since they are critical outputs for evaluating the seismic vulnerability of RCB and secondary components. The results show that the difference in seismic responses between linear and nonlinear analyses gets larger as an earthquake intensity increases. It is observed that the linear analysis underestimates floor displacements while it overestimates floor accelerations. Moreover, a systematic assessment of the capability and efficiency of each structural model is presented thoroughly. MLSM can be an alternative approach to a full 3D FEM, which is complicated in modeling and extremely time-consuming in dynamic analyses. Specifically, BTM is recommended as the optimal model for evaluating the nonlinear seismic performance of NPP structures. Thereafter, linear and nonlinear BTM are employed in a series of time-history analyses to develop fragility curves of RCB for different damage states. It is shown that the linear analysis underestimates the probability of damage of RCB at a given earthquake intensity when compared to the nonlinear analysis. The nonlinear analysis approach is highly suggested for assessing the vulnerability of NPP structures.

  • 사질토 지반에 근입된 모형말뚝에 대한 진동대 실험을 수행하여 말뚝지반 동적 상호작용 현상을 분석하고 동적군말뚝 효과를 산정하였다. 실험은 단말뚝과 말뚝간격을 말뚝직경의 3~8배로 변화시킨 $3\times3$ 군말뚝에 대하여 수행하였다. 동적 군맡뚝 효과는 단말뚝과 군말뚝의 동적 p-y곡선의 중심 기울기를 비교하여 산정하였고, 실험에서 얻어진 p-y곡선은 API의 반복 p-y곡선과 비교하였다. 실험결과 말뚝 간격, 입력 지진파의 주파수와 진폭 변화에 따른 동적 군말뚝 효과를 산정할 수 있었다.

  • A miniaturized wideband band-pass filter with a 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 109.3% (1.53 GHz to 5.22 GHz), high out-of-band attenuation greater than 25 dB, and wide upper stopband up to 14 GHz is proposed. The design consists of a dual-composite right/left handed resonator, embedded open-circuited stub, and a pair of quarter-wavelength short-circuited stubs. These elements are coupled in the near distance to form a miniature filter with a compact occupied area of 0.21 λg×0.19 λg (≈ 0.013 cm2). The optimized filter has multitransmission poles in the passband, substantially improving the return loss and insertion loss characteristics. The behavior of the passband and stopband is verified against the results of a lumped element model and matrix analysis with a full-wave moment-based analysis and actual measurements. The results of this verification and a comparison with the performance of filters in other references indicate that the proposed filter is very efficient and applicable to compact microwave systems.

  • 산림 수자원의 효율적인 관리를 위해서는 산림유역에서 발생하고 있는 수문현상에 대한 정확한 정보가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수문모형을 이용하여 산림유역의 식생 및 지형에 따른 수문반응을 해석하였다. 이를 위하여 결정론적, 총괄형 모형인 BROOK90모형을 선정하였으며, 산림소유역인 북문골 유역(15ha)에서 측정된 일별 하천유량 자료를 이용하여 모형의 매개변수 보정과 검증을 실시하였다. 북문골 소유역의 실측 유출량과 BROOK90모형에 의해 추정된 일별 평균 유출량의 편차는 모형의 보정기간에 대하여 -1.7%이었으며, 검증기간에 대해서는 4.6%로 나타났다. 한편, 월 평균 유출량의 상관계수와 모형효을을 이용하여 모형의 적용성을 분석하였다. 보정기간에 대한 상관계수와 모형효율은 각각 0.922와 0.847이었으며, 검증기간에 대해서는 그 값이 각각 0.941, 0.871로 나타났다. 북문골 소유역의 일별 유출량 자료를 이용하여 BROOK90모형의 적용한 결과, BROOK90모형은 우리나라와 같이 사면의 경사가 급하고 토층이 얕은 산림유역의 유출량 추정에 잘 활용될 수 있으며, 벌채나 기후변화 등에 따른 산림유역의 수문반응을 평가하는 도구로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

  • 본 논문에서는 응력파 전파를 수치모의할 때 발생하는 수치적인 분산효과를 제거하기 위해 파동방정식에 기초한 일차원 유한요소모형을 이용하여 수치분산오차의 특성을 분석하고 분산오차를 제어할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 질량행렬을 그대로 사용하는 경우와 집중질량행렬을 사용하는 경우에 대한 수치분산오차를 분석하였다. 개발된 분산제어기법은 공간미분항의 시간단계 가중치 및 질량집중도를 조정하는 음해법과 인위적인 분산항을 추가하는 양해법의 두가지 방법이다. 제안된 분산보정기법을 이용하여 계산한 수치해와 파동방정식의 해석해를 비교한 결과 본 연구에서 제안한 분산보정기법의 타당성을 확인하였다.

  • 최근, GIS기술의 급속한 발전에 따라 다양한 공간 수문자료들이 속성정보와 결합되어 다루는 것이 가능해졌고, 집중형 유출모형보다 유역 유출량의 시공간적인 변동을 고려할 수 있는 분포형 유출모형의 구축이 활발하게 연구되고 있다. 본 연구는 시공간 분포를 적절하게 표현할 수 있는 레이더 강우시계열자료와 GIS기반의 분포형모형을 연계하여 국내 댐유역에 적용해 봄으로써, 분포형모형의 홍수유출시 실무에서의 적용가능성을 검증해 본 것이다. 본 연구에서 사용한 물리적기반의 분포형모형으로는 교토대학 방재연구소에서 개발한 장기유출모형을 근간으로 레이더강우량과 연계하여 홍수기에 특화되어 사용할 수 있도록 자체 개발한 K-DRUM모형을 이용하였으며, 금강권역의 용담댐유역($930km^2$)을 시험유역으로 적용하였다. 입력강우로는 진도레이더로 부터 레이더강우 전처리프로그램을 이용하여 모형의 격자해상도에 맞는 분포형 강우를 생성하였다. 또한, GIS수문매개변수를 DEM, 토지피복도, 토양도 등의 기본 GIS자료들로 부터 추출, 물리적기반의 분포형모형(KDRUM) 의 입력인자로 사용하여 모형의 초기설정을 향상시켰다. 본 연구의 성과는 향후 돌발홍수에 대응한 실시간 단기 강우유출예측시스템을 구축하기위한 기반이 될 것으로 사료된다.

  • The load-following operation of small modular reactors (SMRs) requires accurate prediction of transient behaviors that can occur in the balance of plants (BOP) and the nuclear steam supply system (NSSS). However, 1-D thermal-hydraulics analysis codes developed for safety and performance analysis have conventionally excluded the BOP from the simulation by assuming ideal boundary conditions for the main steam and feed water (MS/FW) systems, i.e., an open loop. In this study, we introduced a lumped model of BOP fluid system and coupled it with NSSS without any ideal boundary conditions, i.e., in a closed loop. Various methods for coupling boundary conditions at MS/FW were tested to validate their combination in terms of minimizing numerical instability, which mainly arises from the coupled boundaries. The method exhibiting the best performance was selected and applied to a transient simulation of an integrated NSSS and BOP system of a SMART. For a transient event with core power change of 100-20-100%, the simulation exhibited numerical stability throughout the system without any significant perturbation of thermal-hydraulic parameters. Thus, the introduced boundary-condition coupling method and BOP fluid system model can expectedly be employed for the transient simulation and performance analysis of SMRs requiring daily load-following operations.

  • Robust semi-active vibration control of wind turbines using tuned mass dampers (TMDs) is a promising technique. This study investigates a 1.5 megawatt wind turbine controlled by eight different types of tuned mass damper systems of equal mass: a passive TMD, a semi-active varying-spring TMD, a semi-active varying-damper TMD, a semi-active varying-damper-and-spring TMD, as well as these four damper systems paired with an additional smaller passive TMD near the mid-point of the tower. The mechanism and controllers for each of these TMD systems are explained, such as employing magnetorheological dampers for the varying-damper TMD cases. The turbine is modelled as a lumped-mass 3D finite element model. The uncontrolled and controlled turbines are subjected to loading and operational cases including service wind loads on operational turbines, seismic loading with service wind on operational turbines, and high-intensity storm wind loads on parked turbines. The displacement and acceleration responses of the tower at the first and second mode shape maxima were used as the performance indicators. Ultimately, it was found that while all the semi-active TMD systems outperformed the passive systems, it was the semi-active varying-damper-and-spring system that was found to be the most effective overall - capable of controlling vibrations about as effectively with only half the mass as a passive TMD. It was also shown that by reducing the mass of the TMD and adding a second smaller TMD below, the vibrations near the mid-point could be greatly reduced at the cost of slightly increased vibrations at the tower top.
