In this paper, an active vibration control with the use of an air-cell seat for passenger cars is investigated. The roles of the air-cell inserted between the polyurethane foam of the seat and seat cover are first to extend the seat's capability to adopt various shapes of human body and to improve the ride-comfort against road disturbances. The air-cell seat is modeled as a 1-d.o.f. spring-damper system. Because an exact modeling of the air-cell itself is alomost impossible, its dynamic characteristics are analyzed through experiments. A road-adaptive gain-scheduled sky-hook control for the air-cell seat system is proposed. The skyhook gains are scheduled in such a way that the acceleration level transmitted to human body on various road conditions is minimized. Simulations and experimental results are provided.

경량기포혼합토는 경량성으로 인하여 지반내 응력증가에 따른 침하, 활동 파괴, 측방 유동 등의 지반공학적 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 최근 지반개량 및 보강을 위한 경량기포혼합토공법은 육상공사 및 해상공사에 그 적용이 확대되고 있다. 일련의 삼축 및 일축압축강도시험을 수중양생된 경량기포혼합토에 대하여 그 거동 특성을 파악하기 위하여 수행하였다. 특히 수중에 타설하는 경우에 수압에 의해서 경량기포혼합토내에 생성된 기포가 수축되기 때문에 대기중에 타설된 경우와 비교하여 경량기포혼합토의 밀도가 커질 수 있다. 따라서 경량기포혼합토공법을 하천 저면이나 해저에 적용하기 위해서는 수심에 의한 양생압력에 대한 경량기포혼합토의 역학적 특성을 규명해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 수중에 타설되는 경량기포혼합토의 역학적 성질을 조사하기 위해서 양생압력 조절이 가능한 수중양생 시뮬레이션 시스템을 이용하였다. 즉, 수중 5미터와 10미터의 양생조건을 가정하여 경량기포혼합토의 역학적 특성을 조사하였으며 배합인자들에 의한 경량기포혼합토의 압축강도 변화를 모두 고려할 수 있는 정규화계수(Normalized Factor, NF)와 압축강도와의 관계를 제시하였다.

해양환경의 극한 환경조건에 노출 된 고정식 및 부유식 해양구조물의 안전성과 설계비용 효율성에 있어서 파랑-구조물 상호작용의 정확한 예측은 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 규칙파 중 원형 기둥에 대한 파랑-구조물 상호작용을 해석하였다. 3차원 이상유동(two-phase flow)을 해석하기 위해 오픈소스 전산유체역학 라이브러리인 오픈폼을 사용하였다. 4개의 원형기둥이 정사각형 배열을 이루고 있을 때 규칙파의 입사각도에 따른 상호작용을 해석하였다. 원형 기둥 구조물에서의 wave run-up을 입사파의 기울기에 따라 비교하였다. 원형 기둥과 입사파의 상호작용으로 인해 원형 기둥 사이에 높은 파가 생성되는 것을 확인하였다. 본 해석 결과는 구조물과 입사파의 상호작용에 의한 air gap에 대한 연구의 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Porous medium was considered in the present study for the heat transfer enhancement. This was attributed to its high surface area to volume ratio as well as intensive flow mixing by tortuous flow passages. But when the air or water flow through in the porous medium, it is occurred the pressure drop between inlet and outlet. So in the present study investigated simulation result about the pressure drop in the porous medium before apply to heat exchanger. In this simulation, the thickness of the solid inside the porous medium region was varied 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm. And then the simulation result were compared the pressure drop in the same unit cell ($0.5\;mm{\times}0.5\;mm{\times}0.5\;mm$). To make the analysis model, it was assumed the 14-sided tetrakaidecahedron cell which has long been considered the optimal packing cell first proposed by the Lord Kelvin in 1887. And then the simulation is carried out using by STAR-CCM+ which is commercial software. The simulation result can be showed quantified pressure drop by solid effect in the porous medium.

The present experimental study investigates the impact of porous fins on the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics in plate-fin heat exchangers. Systematic experiments have been carried out in a simplified model of a plate-porous fin heat exchanger at a controlled test environment. Comparison of performance between the porous fins and the conventional louvered fins has been made. The experimental results indicate that friction and heat transfer rate are significantly affected by permeability as well as porosity of the porous fin. The porous fins used in the present study show a similar air-side performance to the louvered fin. The correlations of friction and modified j-factor are also given for the design of the plate-porous fin heat exchanger.

This study proposes the temperature compensation algorithm using thermopile detector for non-dispersive infrared Nitrogen gas sensor. From the output voltage of thermistor that is attached onto the infrared detector, the ambient temperature was extracted. The effects of temperatures on the properties of sensor module characteristics of narrow bandpass filter, optical cavity and infrared lamp, and air mixing gas have been introduced in order to implement the temperature compensation algorithm.

This study was performed to obtain the basic data which can be applied to use of foamihg mortars. 1. At the mixing ratio 1:1, the highest strengths were showed by foaming mortam, respec - tively. But, it. gradually was decreased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foam- ing agent. The decreasing rates of strengths were incresed in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. 2. The strengths were decreased up to 77.0-92.8% by mix-foaming type and 36.7-74.4% by pre-foamed type than cement mortar. 3. At the mixing ratio of 1:1, the lowest air contents were showed by foaming mortars, respectively. But, it gradually was increased in poorer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. The increasing rates of air contents were increased in richer mixing ratio and more addition of foaming agent. 4. Air contents were showed up to 26.0-63.8 times by mix-foaming type and 5.8-17.7 times by pre-foamed type than cement mortar, respectively. 5. The correlations between compressive strength and air content were highly significant, respectively. The multiple regression equations of strengths and air content were computed depending on a fuction of mixing ratio and addition of foarning agent. It was highly significant, respectively.

For a sailing ship, the frictional resistance exerted on the hull of ship is due to viscous effect of the fluid flow, which is proportional to the wetted area of the hull and moving speed of ship. This resistance can be reduced through air bubble lubrication to the hull. The traditional way of introducing air to the wetted hull consumes extra energy to retain stability of air layer or bubbles. It leads to lower reduction rate of the net frictional resistance. In the present paper, a novel air bubble lubrication technique proposed by Kumagai et al. (2014), the Winged Air Induction Pipe (WAIP) device with opening hole on the upper surface of the hydrofoil is numerically investigated. This device is able to naturally introduce air to be sandwiched between the wetted hull and water. Propulsion system efficiency can be therefore increased by employing the WAIP device to reduce frictional drag. In order to maximize the device performance and explore the underlying physics, parametric study is carried out numerically. Effects of submerged depth of the hydrofoil and properties of the opening holes on the upper surface of the hydrofoil are investigated. The results show that more holes are favourable to reduce frictional drag. 62.85% can be achieved by applying 4 number of holes.

Polyurethane foam-disk passive air samplers (PAS) were deployed in a southern area of Korea for three months. The target compounds were 12 coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The congener profiles measured in this study were the same as those in ambient air and emission gas from the incinerator. A gradient of the total PCBs in different regions (industrial>residential>rural) was observed, suggesting the industrial complex may be an important source of coplanar PCBs. In general, only gas-phase compounds are mainly sequestrated by PAS. In order to estimate the concentration of particle-phase PCBs, a gas/particle partition model was used. A combined result (gas+particle-phase PCBs) was compared with previous results, indicating that the level of coplanar PCBs in our study area is comparable to those in other urban sites in the world. The validation of this method for estimating the total concentration is required through additional backup studies.

Passive air samplers with polyurethane foam (PUF) disks were employed to determine seasonal gas phase variation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in ambient air on Anmyeon island from March 2007 to January 2008. Sum of 13 PAHs ranged between $3.5\;ng/m^3$ and $27.6\;ng/m^3$. Total PAHs during the heating season was 6.2 times higher than non-heating season. The dominant PAHs components during sampling periods were low and middle molecular weight PAHs including phenanthrene, fluoranthene, pyrene and chrysene. Gas exchange fluxes of PAHs across the air-water interface of the Yellow Sea were calculated using a modified two-film exchange model. PAHs fluxes ranged from $196\;ng/m^2/d$ net volatilization during summer to $3830\;ng/m^2/d$ net absorption during winter. Passive air sampler provides a convenient and cost-effective tool for measuring averaged gas phase PAHs, which was successfully used for calculation of gas exchange flux of PAHs in the Yellow Sea.
