In recent years, mechanical systems such as high speed vehicles and railway trains moving on elastic beam structures have become a very important issue to consider. In this paper, a general approach, which can predict the dynamic behavior of a constrained mechanical system moving on a flexible beam structure, is proposed. Various supporting conditions for the foundation support are considered for the elastic beam structure. The elastic structure is assumed to be a non-uniform and linear Bernoulli-Euler beam with a proportional damping effect. Combined differential-algebraic equation of motion is derived using the multi-body dynamics theory and the finite element method. The proposed equations of motion can be solved numerically using the generalized coordinate partitioning method and predictor-corrector algorithm, which is an implicit multi-step integration method.

In this paper, the modified direct method employing beam transformation technique is proposed in order to efficiently calculate hydroelastic responses of floating structure. Since the proposed method expresses the displacements of three-dimensional structure with those of transformed beam which leads to small number of equations of motion, the method is numerically efficient compared to the conventional direct method. To verify the efficiency of the proposed method a 500 m-long floating structure under wave loads is considered in numerical example. Displacements, bending moments, torsion moments and shear forces are calculated and computing tine is examined. The results are also compared with those of the conventional direct method.

방사선 치료분야에서 선량 보상체가 널리 이용되고 있으나, 그 보상효과에 대한 확실한 검증 방법은 알려진 바가 거의 없다. 본 연구에서는 Missing Tissue 뿐 아니라, Internal Tissue Inhomogeneity 까지 고려한 3차원 보상체를 제작하고, Exit Beam Dose Profile의 측정값과 본 연구에서 고안한 방법으로 기대값을 구해 비교함으로써 보상체의 성능을 평가하고자 하였다. 환자정보는 CT Simulator를 사용하여 얻었고, 보상체 정보는 Render Plan 3-D Planning System을 통해 얻었다. Computer Controlled Milling Machine으로 알루미늄 보상체를 제작해서 보상체가 있는 경우와 없는 경우의 선량 프로파일을 측정하여 비교하였다. 측정은 폴리스티렌 팬톰 사이에 필름을 삽입하여 팬톰 내에서의 실제 선량 분포를 구하고, 필름 카셋트를 이용해서 Exit Beam Dose Profile 을 동시에 얻었다. Oblique Beam, Parallel Opposing Beam, Inhomogeneus Human Phantom에 대해 제작된 보상체가 각각 선량보상 효과가 잘 나타남을 볼 수 있었고, 이 연구에서의 성능확인 방법을 통해 보상체의 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

Purpose: Proton therapy has different relative biological effectiveness (RBE) compared with X-ray treatment, which is the standard in radiation therapy, and the fixed RBE value of 1.1 is widely used. However, RBE depends on a charged particle's linear energy transfer (LET); therefore, measuring LET is important. We have developed a LET measurement method using the inefficiency characteristic of an EBT3 film on a proton beam's Bragg peak (BP) region. Methods: A Gafchromic EBT3 film was used to measure the proton beam LET. It measured the dose at a 10-cm pristine BP proton beam in water to determine the quenching factor of the EBT3 film as a reference beam condition. Monte Carlo (MC) calculations of dose-averaged LET (LET_d) were used to determine the quenching factor and validation. The dose-averaged LETs at the 12-, 16-, and 20-cm pristine BP proton beam in water were calculated with the quenching factor. Results: Using the passive scattering proton beam nozzle of the National Cancer Center in Korea, the LET_d was measured for each beam range. The quenching factor was determined to be 26.15 with 0.3% uncertainty under the reference beam condition. The dose-averaged LETs were measured for each test beam condition. Conclusions: We developed a method for measuring the proton beam LET using an EBT3 film. This study showed that the magnitude of the quenching effect can be estimated using only one beam range, and the quenching factor determined under the reference condition can be applied to any therapeutic proton beam range.

본 논문에서는 인체에 유해한 방사능 피폭량이 부챗살 형태의 Fan Beam 보다 상대적으로 적은 원추형 Cone Beam CT 시스템을 사용하여 3차원 영상을 빠르게 구성하기 위한 회전 기반법 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 그리고 계산 속도를 빠르게 하기 위하여 초월함수가 더 적은 3단계 회전 행렬을 이용하여 3차원 영상을 구현하였다. 또한 본 연구에서 구성한 영상을 일반적으로 사용되는 라돈 변환 알고리즘으로 구현된 3차원 영상과 비교하여 영상의 질은 평균적으로 단면 영상 당 10% 정도의 오차를 보이며 미약하게 저하되었으나 영상 구성 속도 면에서는 35배 개선됨을 보였다. 이는 대략 초당 $4{\sim}5$ 프레임을 얻을 수 있는 수치이며 간단한 구조를 가진 피사체라면 보다 많은 프레임을 얻을 수 있어 3차원 동영상을 실시간으로 구현할 수 있는 가능성을 보였다.

The main purpose of this paper is to apply differential transformation method(DTM) and generalized differential quadrature method(GDQM) to vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli beam with open cracks on elastic foundation. In this paper the concepts of DTM and GDQM were briefly introduced. The governing equation of motion of the beam with open cracks on elastic foundation is derived. The cracks are modeled by massless substitute spring. The effects of the crack location, size and the foundation constants, on the natural frequencies of the beam, are investigated. Numerical calculations are carried out and compared with previous published results.

A new technique is proposed for bridge structural damage detection based on spatial wavelet analysis of the time history obtained from vehicle body moving over the bridge, which is different from traditional detection techniques based on the bridge response. A simply-supported Bernoulli-Euler beam subjected to a moving spring-mass unit is established, with the crack in the beam simulated by modeling the cracked section as a rotational spring connecting two undamaged beam segments, and the equations of motion for the system is derived. By using the transfer matrix method, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the cracked beam are determined. The responses of the beam and the moving spring-mass unit are obtained by modal decomposition theory. The continuous wavelet transform is calculated on the displacement time histories of the sprung-mass. The case study result shows that the damage location can be accurately determined and the method is effective.

이 연구는 3개의 미지변수를 갖는 변단면 기하 비선형 보의 수치해석 방법에 관한 연구이다. 3개의 미지변수를 갖는 보를 변화위치 집중하중이 작용하는 회전-이동지점 보로 선택하였다. 보의 변단면은 휨 강성이 부재축을 따라 함수적으로 변화하는 변단면으로 선택하였다. 이러한 보의 기하 비선형 거동을 지배하는 연립 1계 미분방정식들을 Bernoulli-Euler 보 이론으로 유도하였다. 이 미분방정식들을 반복법을 이용하여 미지변수들을 산정할 수 있는 수치해석 방법을 개발하였다. 전형적인 수치해석 예를 통하여 새로운 수치해석 방법의 과정을 분석하였다. 이 연구의 이론을 검증하기 위하여 실험실 규모의 실험을 실행하였다.
