This paper presents the performance analysis results of a short line fault interruption of a gas circuit breaker, particularly a self-blast type breaker. Hot gas flow analysis was carried out using a CFD calculation combined with the arc model and nozzle ablation model. To evaluate the interruption performance, the index function was defined using the pressure in the heating chamber and the density above the arc region. The simulation and test results showed that the gas flow field and suitable choice of an interruption performance index can be used to predict the interruption characteristics and provide guidelines for designing self-blast breakers with a higher interruption capability.

This paper is focused on the residual capacity of steel columns, as a damage criterion. Load-Impulse (P-I) diagrams are frequently used for analysis, design, or assessment of blast resistant structures. The residual load carrying capacity of a simply supported steel column was derived as a damage criterion based on a SDOF computational approach. Dimensionless P-I diagrams were generated numerically with this quantitative damage criterion. These numerical P-I diagrams were used to show that traditional constant ductility ratios adopted as damage criteria are not appropriate for either the design or damage assessment of blast resistant steel columns, and that the current approach could be a much more appropriate alternative.

The response of concrete structures subjected to shock and blast load involves a rapid transient phase, during which material breach may take place. Such an effect could play a crucial role in determining the residual state of the structure and the possible dispersion of the fragments. Modelling of the transient phase response poses various challenges due to the complexities arising from the dynamic behaviour of the materials and the numerical difficulties associated with the evolving material discontinuity and large deformations. Typical modelling approaches include the traditional finite element method in conjunction with an element removal scheme, various meshfree methods such as the SPH, and the mesoscale model. This paper is intended to provide an overview of several alternative approaches and discuss their respective applicability. Representative concrete material models for high pressure and high rate applications are also commented. Several recent application studies are introduced to illustrate the pros and cons of different modelling options.

In this paper, we study precoding techniques for co-channel interference suppression in multiuser MIMO systems. DPC is optimal techniques to achieve the system capacity of multiuser MIMO downlink channels. DPC is not proper in practical wireless systems because complexity is very high. So block diagonal precoding for multiuser MIMO downlink channel is studied. The block diagonal precoding is used to suppress co-channel interference between multiuser. Block diagonal precoding method, whose complexity is reduced by modified null space operation, change multiuser MIMO channel to multiple single-user MIMO channel. We also use V-BLAST decoder in receiver. V-BLAST decoder can achieve increased system capacity in proportion to the number of users. We show improved system performance by using computer simulation.

Tunnels have become an indispensable part of metro cities. Blast resistance design of tunnel has attracted the attention of researchers due to numerous implosion event. Present paper deals with the non-linear finite element analysis of rock tunnel having shear zone subjected to internal blast loading. Abaqus Explicit schemes in finite element has been used for the simulation of internal blast event. Structural discontinuity i.e., shear zone has been assumed passing the tunnel cross-section in the vertical direction and consist of Highly Weathered Granite medium surrounding the tunnel. Mohr-Coulomb constitutive material model has been considered for modelling the Highly Weathered Granite and the shear zone material. Concrete Damage Plasticity (CDP), Johnson-Cook (J-C), Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) equation of state models are used for concrete, steel reinforcement and Trinitrotoluene (TNT) simulation respectively. The Coupled-Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) method of modelling for TNT explosive and air inside the tunnel has been adopted in this study. The CEL method incorporates the large deformations for which the traditional finite element analysis cannot be used. Shear zone orientations of 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90°, with respect to the tunnel axis are considered to see their effect. It has been concluded that 60° orientation of shear zone presents the most critical situation.

가스 취급 및 저장시설의 확충과 더불어 폭발의 규모가 다양해짐에 따라 사고를 대비한 방폭 설비 관련 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 방폭 인증시험 대상 설비 중 하나인 가스차단문은 폭풍파나 내부 화재로 인한 팽창압력을 차단하는 동시에 내부의 인원과 장비를 보호하는 역할을 한다. 현재 사용되는 가스차단문은 방폭성능 인증시험 대상 설비임에도 방폭 설계 관련 규정이 명확히 제시되지 않고 있으며 해당 설비의 폭발압력저항성능평가에 관한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 미국재료시험협회(ASTM)에서 제시하는 가스차단문 규격에 관한 규정(ASTM F-1069-87, F-1068-90)을 참고하여 가스차단문을 3D 형상으로 모델링하고 ANSYS Explicit Dynamics 해석을 통해 기준 대비 가스차단문의 영구적 변형량을 비교하였다. 또한, 방폭 설비 관련 연구에서 사용되고 있는 회전연성도·변위연성도 계산을 통한 방폭성능 평가 방법을 함께 고려하여 가스차단문의 수치해석적 폭발압력저항 성능평가를 수행하였다.

Blast furnace revamping in steel industry is one of the most important work to complete the complicated equipment within a short period of time based on the interfaces of various types of work. P company has planned to build a Smart Tracking System based on the wireless tag system with the aim of complying with the construction period and reducing costs, ahead of the revamping of blast furnace scheduled for construction in February next year. It combines the detailed design data with the wireless recognition technology to grasp the stage status of design, storage and installation. Then, it graphically displays the location information of each member in relation to the plan and the actual status in connection with Building Information Modeling (BIM) 4D Simulation. QR Code is used as a wireless tag in order to check the receiving status of core equipment considering the characteristics of each item. Then, DB in server system is built, status information is input. By implementing BIM 4D Simulation data using DELMIA, the information on location and status is provided. As a feature of the S/W function, a function for confirming the items will be added to the cellular phone screen in order to improve the accuracy of tagging of the items. Accuracy also increases by simultaneous processing of storage and location tagging. The most significant effect of building this system is to minimize errors in construction by preventing erroneous operation of members. This system will be very useful for overall project management because the information about the position and progress of each critical item can be visualized in real time. It could be eventually lead to cost reduction of project management.

A self-blast type gas circuit breaker has been studied in this study to improve efficiency of interrupting performance of short line fault(SLF). Hot gas flows of gas circuit breaker have been simulated to evaluate interruption performance using CFD. Design parameters such as various types of expansion chamber and nozzles are suggested by using simulation results. Simulated results and experimental ones are compared with previous (ones that of in under development and with capacitor) GCB. Modified new shape of an expansion chamber and nozzle has been suggested to improve the efficiency of gas flow and to provide guidelines for designing self-blast breaker with a higher interruption capability.

이 논문에서는 철근콘크리트 건물의 폭발하중에 의한 연쇄붕괴 해석을 위한 적합한 침식 기준값을 제안하였다. 침식은 기본적으로 대변형에 의한 오류나 해석의 갑작스러운 종료 등의 문제를 극복하기 위한 수치해석 기법이며 선행연구에서 폭발해석에서의 적합한 침식기준 값을 제안했었다. 하지만 콘크리트는 변형률 속도에 따라 다른 스트레스-스트레인 곡선을 갖는다. 따라서 실험 결과와 수치해석 결과를 비교함으로써 실제와 같은 연쇄붕괴 시뮬레이션에 적합한 침식기준 값을 제안하였다. 최종적으로 실제 붕괴가 일어났던 오클라호마 연방정부 건물을 두 결과 값의 중간 값을 적용하여 유사 해석을 진행하였다. 그 결과, 해석 결과는 실제 붕괴를 잘 묘사하고 있다.
