  • Airfield pavements, such as runways and taxiways, are essential for smooth take-off and landing of fixed-wing aircraft and are the most important installation for the military to carry out air operations during wartime. Therefore, in wartime, it is necessary to reduce the damage to these installations and repair them in the shortest possible time. Recently, the pattern of attack is changing from the use of conventional high explosive which is to create large craters to the use of multiple warheads weapon system which is to effectively attack enemy's airfields but unrelated to accuracy. Hence in this study, through identifying the specification and composition of multiple warheads weapon system, we checked the protection performance and damage patterns of the pavement when explosion occurred on the installed military runway and taxiway by the multiple warheads weapon system. And The multiple warheads weapon systems is able to cause extensive damage but the destructive power of each warhead is not as great, so I would like to propose an airfield pavement design plan for minimal protection against such attacks.

  • Recently a system is being required to replace ILS due to increasing air traffic. In this paper, Curved approach is applied to an airport where ILS approach cannot be applied due to its geographical condition and restricted aerospace condition, and verified by flight test. After analysing conditions of Tae-an airfield of Hanseo University with virtual ILS approach, airfield applicability was evaluated by Curved approach using by GPS. Normally simulation is performed after establishing approach procedure using electric map, but recently verification is being performed by flight test without simulation because accuracy and reliability are increased. In this paper, established procedure is verified modified by flight test with Pilot Test and Auto Pilot test and controllability and passenger's stability were also checked.

  • The runway visual range affected by fog and so on is one of the important indicators to determine whether aircraft can take off and land at the airport or not. In the case of airports where transportation airplanes are operated, major weather forecasts including the runway visual range for local area have been released and provided to aviation workers for recognizing that. This paper proposes a runway visual range estimation model with a deep neural network applied recently to various fields such as image processing, speech recognition, natural language processing, etc. It is developed and implemented for estimating a runway visual range of local airport with a deep neural network. It utilizes the past actual weather observation data of the applied airfield for constituting the learning of the neural network. It can show comparatively the accurate estimation result when it compares the results with the existing observation data. The proposed model can be used to generate weather information on the airfield for which no other forecasting function is available.

  • Foreign object debris (FOD) is a generic term for all substances that may pose a threat to aircraft operations on a runway. In the past, FOD detection and collection methods using human resources were very inefficient in terms of efficiency and economics, so it is essential to develop an unmanned FOD detection system suitable for domestic use. In this paper, the fixed FOD automatic detection system and mobile FOD automatic detection system using EO camera and radar were studied and developed at the Taean airfield of Hanseo University, and fixed and mobile method were operated to confirm that automatic FOD detection in the runway of the airfield is possible regardless of illumination and weather conditions.

  • Many structural evaluation procedures of road and airfield pavements use the Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) as a critical element of non-destructive deflection testing. FWD is a trailer mounted device that provides accurate data on pavement response to dynamic wheel loads. A dynamic load is generated by dropping a mass from a variable height onto a loading plate. The magnitude of the load and the pavement deflection are measured by a load celt and geophones. And database concerning pavement damage should be enhanced to analyze loss of thickness asphalt layer caused from the plastic deformation of pavement structure, such as cracking or rutting. The prototype FWD is developed, which consists of chassis system, hydraulic loading system, data acquisition and analysis system. This system subsequently merged to from automation management system and is then validated and updated to produce a working FWD which can actually be used in the field.

  • Concrete structures such as bridge, pavement, airfield, and offshore structure are normally subjected to repeated load. This paper proposes a failure probability models of concrete subjected to split tension repeated-loads, based on experimental results. The fatigue tests were performed at the stress ratio of 0.1, the loading shape of sine, the frequency of 20Hz, and the stress levels of 90, 80 and 70%. The fatigue test specimen was 150mm in diameter and 75mm in thickness. The fatigue analysis did not include which exceeded 0.9 of statistical coefficient of determination values or did not failure at 2$\times$$10^6$ cycles. The graphical method, the moment method, and maximum likelihood estimation method were used to obtain Weibull distribution parameters. The goodness-of-fit test by Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was acceptable 5% level of significance. As a result, the proposed failure probability model based on the two-parameter($\alpha and \mu$) Weibull distribution was good enough to estimate accurately the fatigue life subjected to tension mode.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of expansion joint spacing (slab size) on the life cycle costs of owning Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) airfield pavements. Previous research has shown that slab size has a statistically significant impact on pavement performance. A probabilistic life cycle cost analysis was performed to determine if the effect of slab size on pavement performance would affect the total cost of ownership of PCC pavements. Data from 48 Pavement Condition Index (PCI) inspections of military and civilian airfields were used to develop probability-of-distress-by-condition curves, which were then used to develop probabilistic cost-of-repair-by-condition curves. A present worth life cycle cost analysis was then performed for various slab sizes, using construction costs, rehabilitation costs, and maintenance costs. Maintenance costs were determined by assuming a condition deterioration rate appropriate for each slab size and applying the cost-by-condition curves. The probabilistic cost-of-repair-by-condition curves indicated that smaller slabs are more expensive to repair on a unit cost basis. Life cycle cost analysis showed that larger slabs have a higher total cost of ownership than smaller slabs due to a faster rate of deterioration.

  • 항공기사고는 약 70%가 이 착륙단계에서 일어나는 CFIT사고이다. 그러므로 비행장주위의 장애물 관리는 사고방지에 매우 중요하다. 국내에서도 비행장주위의 장애물제한을 항공법에 규정하고 있고, 최근 개정안으로 제시된 동법 시행규칙에서 ICAO의 차폐기준의 적용을 포함하였으나 이 규정만으로는 비행장 주위의 장애물의 체계적인 관리가 어려우며, 특히 국내 비행장 주위의 차폐이론적용에 필요한 세부기준이 명확하지 않다. 본 연구는 항공장애물과 관련된 ICAO의 규정 및 항공선진국들의 관련 규정을 검토 분석하고 국내 현황과 비교분석한 후 국제기준에 비추어 국내 환경에서도 적용 가능한 비행장 공역에서의 항공장애물관리규정(안)의 방향을 제시하였고 특히 논란의 여지가 많은 차폐이론의 적용의 명확한 기준방안을 제시하였다.
