  • Solution-processed tungsten oxide thin film with thickness of about 30 nm is prepared from ammonium tungstate. This layer is introduced into the interface between the poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) layer and the ITO electrode to be used as an electron blocking layer. The annealed tungsten oxide thin films at $150^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$ show amorphous phase, while the $400^{\circ}C$ -annealed tungsten oxide film shows crystalline phase. At $150^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature, the conversion efficiency is significantly improved from 0.71% to 1.42% as the condition is changed from vacuum to air atmosphere, which is related to oxidation state of tungsten in amorphous phase. For the air annealing condition, the conversion efficiency is further increased from 1.42% to 2.01% as the temperature is increased from $150^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$, which is mainly due to the removal of the chemisorbed water. However, a slight deterioration in photovoltaic performance is observed when the temperature is increased to $400^{\circ}C$, which is ascribed to poor electron blocking ability due to the formation of crystalline phase. It is concluded that $W^{6+}$ oxidation state and amorphous nature in tungsten oxide interlayer is essential for blocking electron effectively from the active layer to the ITO electrode.

  • 나이에 의한 외부의 환경조건의 변화는 이에 적응하려는 척추의 구조적인 변화를 가져온다. 이러한 구조적인 변화는 척추의 biomechanical 거동에 영향을 미칠 것이다. 이러한 구조적인 변화의 효과를 연구하기 위하여, 나이에 의한 척추의 재료 및 기계적인 물성의 변화는 제외되었다. 유한요소법 (finite element method)에 의한 lumbar spine model (L3-L4)에 있어서, Annulus 의 유한요소 모델은 laminate composite elements로서 16개의 layer와 6개의 물성으로 구성되어있다. Spinal stiffness 와 facet reaction은 나이가 들수록 증가했다. 나이가 들수록 inner annulus의 fiber/layer tensile strains, cancellous bone stress 및 end-Plate stress는 감소했다. Fiber/layer compressive strains, facet reaction, ligament reaction and end-plate rigidity는 나이에 의한 척추의 구조적인 변화에 의하여 증가했다. 따라서 나이에 의한 척추의 정상적인 쇠퇴과정에 있어서 척추의 구조적인 변화는 spinal stiffness를 증가 시켜서 척추 및 disc의 지나친 변형을 감소시킬 것이다.

  • 쉘-튜브 열교환기가 나로우주센터 추진기관종합시험장(PSTC)에 설치되었으며, 이 열교환기는 극저온의 헬륨을 고온의 열매유와 열교환하여 약 500 K 까지 가열시키는 역할을 한다. 열교환기에서 토출되는 헬륨의 온도가 설계보다 100 K 낮게 나옴에 따라, 성능저하의 원인으로 열매유의 격막효과가 지목되었다. CFD 해석을 통해 격막효과의 유무를 확인하였으며, 격막효과에 의한 열교환기 성능저하는 미미한 것으로 판단되었다. 추가적으로 열교환기의 성능을 증가시키기 위하여 열매유 교체에 따른 열교환기 성능 변화를 알아보았다. 열매유를 사용하는 열교환기의 성능향상을 위해서는 500 K 부근에서 점성이 낮아야 하고, 열전도도가 높아야 한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 추진기관종합시험장에서 운용된 극저온 헬륨과 고온 열매유의 열교환 시스템의 시험 결과를 본 논문에서 확인할 수 있다.

  • 경사제의 평균 잔류수명을 간편하게 추정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 누적피해의 시간 이력 자료를 기반으로 하는 추계학적 확률모형과 다르게 내구수명의 분포함수를 이용하여 평균 잔류수명을 추정하는 방법이다. 설계 내구수명과 과거 하중이력에 따라 전문가들이 판단한 내구수명의 상한치와 하한치 그리고 그 발생 가능성을 활용하여 분포함수의 모수도 쉽게 추정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 제시된 간편법을 전면이 TTP로 피복된 경사제에 적용하였다. TTP 피복재의 시간에 따른 누적피해에 대한 모형실험 자료가 있는 동일 조건에 대하여 WP(Wiener Process) 기반의 추계학적 확률모형도 MCS(Monte-Carlo Simulation) 기법과 함께 적용하였다. 각각의 해석 방법으로부터 얻어진 결과들을 MTTF(Mean Time To Failure)와 함께 비교하여, 실제 발생 가능한 시간에 따른 모든 형태의 피해경로에 대하여 경사제의 내구수명 분포함수는 대수정규분포를 따른다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 본 연구에서 제시된 간편법으로 추정된 경사제의 재령에 따른 평균 잔류수명을 WP 기반 추계학적 확률모형의 결과와 비교하였다. 일정한 재령까지는 누적피해의 증가 형태와 관계없이 비교적 잘 일치하였으나, MTTF 근방의 재령에서는 선형적인 증가와 대수적인 증가 형태에서 어느 정도 차이를 보이고 있다. 따라서 불확실성을 올바로 고려하기 위해서는 추계학적 확률모형을 사용하는 것이 바람직하지만, 본 연구에서 제시한 간편법은 누적피해에 대한 시간 이력 자료를 필요로 하지 않기 때문에 항만 구조물에 대하여 평균 잔류수명 기반의 예방적 유지관리를 신속하게 계획할 필요성이 있는 경우에 유용하게 활용될 수 있다.

  • The focus of this study is the promotion of green area volumes and their naturalness, water circulation system, decline of entropy, creation of biological habitats and linkage of separated urban green space. Re-presentative urban biotope survey sites were categorized as urban biotope, semi-natural biotope, and natural forest. In the urban biotope, a residential biotope was constructed near the Han river and in mountain areas. The green-area ratio at the housing complex was about 25%. GVZ(Grunvolumenzahl) was 0.35m$^3$/m$^2$ at the 5∼10-story housing complex, and 1.53m$^3$/m$^2$ over the 11-story. As for the green-area structure of the housing complex, canopy layer, understory layer, and shrub layer were not differentiated and the green-area volume was not high enough. The green-area ratio of school areas as a public area biotope was 5∼20%. GVZ was 1.12m$^3$/m$^2$ at Myungduk High School, and 1.78m$^3$/m$^2$ at Jeonggok Elementary School. In order to convert the urban biotope into an ecological area, green areas around the buildings should be connected to urban buffer green areas, and multi-layer structures should be established with natural plant species. In the semi-natural biotope, neighbor parks were created park in the vicinity of the natural forests. GVZ was 0.28m$^3$/m$^2$, and plantation was established with single layer structure and was definitely insufficient for the area. The urban buffer green areas have been established in strip corridors with the width of 20∼123m. In those areas, GVZ was 0.16∼0.27m$^3$/m$^2$ and had a deficient canopy layer, understory layer, and shrub layer. Soil conditions were not favorable for tree growth. In the natural biotope, GVZ of the plantation was 1.03∼1.5m$^3$/m$^2$ but the high crown closure of this area reduces the chance of species change and succession. GVZ of natural forest was 2.53∼2.57m$^3$/m$^2$. It is desirable to plant diverse plants and the natural forest should be succeeded by broad-leaf deciduous tree species. To improve the value of biotope at Kangseo-Gu, building height needs to be limited to reduce the environmental deterioration in the city. In order to maintain the water circulation system, water-permeable material is recommened when the urban surface areas are paved. The establishment of a water circulation system will improve ground water levels, soil moisture, water quality, and habitats. In order to improve biological diversity, it is desirable to have multi-layer structures in urban green areas with native species.

  • 게르마늄 결정은 검출에 유용하지 않지만, 광자를 강하게 약화하기 때문에 효율성 저하를 일어키는 불감층을 가지고 있다. 따라서 제조업체가 제공하는 데이터를 검출기 시뮬레이션 모델에 사용하면 계산된 효율성과 측정된 효율성 사이에 약간의 큰 차이가 나타난다. 고순도 게르마늄(HPGe) 검출기의 모양과 치수는 CT 스캔을 통해 몬테카롤롤 시뮬레이션을 위해 형상을 정확하게 형상화하였다. 이 결과 불감층 두께 증가가 효율 감소과정에 미치는 영향을 연구하고자 한다. 불감층의 조정은 50 - 1500 keV의 에너지 범위에서 측정 효율과 시뮬레이션 효율 사이의 ${\pm}3%$의 상대편차와 함께 좋은 일치임을 확인하였다. 불감층 두께에 변화를 주어 시뮬레이션 데이터를 비교하였다. 몬테카롤로 시뮬레이션 결과를 실험 결과와 비교하여 새로운 불감층 두꼐를 얻었다. 1.4와 1.6 mm 두께의 End Cap 시뮬레이션 모델에서 1.5mm 두께의 End Cap시뮬레이션 모델에 대한 불감층 두꼐 결과의 차이는 End Cap 치수의 정확성으로 인한 체계적인 오류였다. 통계적 오류와 체계적 오류를 고려한 후, 검출기의 불감충 두께는 $1.02{\pm}0.14mm$로 도출되었다. 따라서 불감층 두께의 증가는 효율성 감소에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.

  • Civil structures may experience progressive deterioration and damage under environmental and operational conditions over their service life. Finite element (FE) model updating method is one of the most important approaches for damage identification in structures due to its capabilities in structural health monitoring. Although various damage detection approaches have been investigated on structures, there are limited studies on large-sized space structures. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the applicability and efficiency of sensitivity-based FE model updating framework for damage identification in large space structures from a distinct point of view. This framework facilitates modeling and model updating in large and geometric complicated space structures. Considering sensitivity-based FE model updating and vibration measurements, the discrepancy between acceleration response data in real damaged structure and hypothetical damaged structure have been minimized through adjusting the updating parameters. The feasibility and efficiency of the above-mentioned approach for damage identification has finally been demonstrated with two numerical examples: a flat double layer grid and a double layer diamatic dome. According to the results, this method can detect, localize, and quantify damages in large-scaled space structures very accurately which is robust to noisy data. Also, requiring a remarkably small number of iterations to converge, typically less than four, demonstrates the computational efficiency of this method.

  • An electric double-layer capacitor(EDLC) is an electrochemical capacitor with relatively high energy density, typically hundreds of times greater than conventional electrolytic capacitors. EDLCs are widely used for energy storage rather than as general-purpose circuit components. They have a variety of commercial applications, notably in energy smoothing and momentary-load devices, and energy-storage and kinetic energy recovery system devices used in vehicles, etc. This paper presents an accelerated degradation test of an EDLC with rated voltage 2.7V, capacitance 100F, and usage temperature $-40^{\circ}C{\sim}65^{\circ}C$. The EDLCs are tested at $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively for 1,750hours, and their capacitances are measured at predetermined times by constant current discharge method. The failure times are predicted from their capacitance deterioration patterns, where the failure is defined as 30% capacitance decrease from the initial one. It is assumed that the lifetime distribution of EDLC follows Weibull and Arrhenius life-stress relationship holds. The life-stress relationship, acceleration factor, and $B_{10}$ life at design condition are estimated by analyzing the accelerated life test data.

  • Selective Laser Sintering(SLS) method is one of Rapid Prototyping(RP) technologies. It has been used to fabricate desirable part to sinter powder and stack the fabricated layer. Since the sintering process occurs using infrared laser having high thermal energy, shrinkage and curling of the fabricated part occurs according to thermal distribution. Therefore, the fast scanning path generation is necessary to eliminate the factors of quality deterioration. In case of fabricating larger size parts, the unique scanning device and scanning path generation should be considered. In this paper, the development of SLS machines being capable of large size fabrication(800${\times}$1000${\times}$800 mm, W${\times}$D${\times}$H) will be addressed. The dual laser system and the unique scanning device have been designed and built, which employ CO2 lasers and dynamic 3-axis scanners. The developed system allows scanning a larger planar surface with the desired laser spot size. Also, to generate the fast scanning paths, adaptive path generation is needed with respect to the shape of each layer, and not simply x, y scanning, but the scanning of arbitrary direction should be enabled. To evaluate the suggested method, the complex part will be used for the experiment fabrication.

  • This study presents an explicit dynamic analysis of an adhesively bonded single-lap joint under an impact load. The finite element software, ANSYS LS-DYNA, was used for the analysis and Von Mises stresses were obtained from the analysis. To model the adherents, solid elements were used and a rigid body was assumed for impactor modeling. Three impact heights (1 m, 5 m, and 10 m) were applied to consider different impact conditions and infinite boundary conditions were applied to the end-area of each adherent to save computational time in the analysis. In addition to investigating the stresses in the normal state, we also investigated the stresses in a damaged state (elasticity deterioration), simulated by a change in Young's modulus for 36 of the 3600 elements in the upper layer of the adhesive. The results showed that the location of damage is critical to the stress state of each layer (upper, middle, and lower).
