Reliability analysis and prediction of next failure time is critical to sustain weapon systems, concerning scheduled maintenance, spare parts replacement and maintenance interventions, etc. Since 1981, many methodology derived from various probabilistic and statistical theories has been suggested to do that activity. Nowadays, many A.I. tools have been used to support these predictions. Support Vector Regression(SVR) is a nonlinear regression technique extended from support vector machine. SVR can fit data flexibly and it has a wide variety of applications. This paper utilizes SVM and SVR with combining time series to predict the next failure time based on historical failure data. A numerical case using failure data from the military equipment is presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach. Finally, the proposed approach is proved meaningful to predict next failure point and to estimate instantaneous failure rate and MTBF.

The failure of geogrids can be defined as an excessive creep strain which causes the collapse of slopes and embankments. In this study, the accelerated creep tests were applied to two different types of polyester geogrids, at 75, 80, 85$^{\circ}C$ by applying 50% load of ultimate tensile strengths using a newly designed test equipment which is allowed the creep testing at higher temperatures. And then the creep curves were shifted and superposed in the time axis by applying time-temperature supposition principles. In predicting the lifetimes of geogrids, the underlying distribution for failure times were determined based on identification of the failure mechanism. The results indicate that the conventional procedures with the newly designed test equipment are shown to be effective in prediction of the lifetimes of geogrids with shorter test times. In addition, the predicted lifetimes of geogrids having different structures at various creep strains give guidelines for users to select the proper geogrids in the fields.

The north panel of a geostationary satellite is used as one of the main radiators, on which communication equipment or bus equipment are installed. The thermal control of panel is designed by using embedded heat pipes and surface heat pipes (or external heat pipes) to spread out heat dissipated from equipment all over the radiator evenly and finally to reject the heat to the space through the radiator efficiently. This panel is also divided by several areas based on the operating temperature and dissipation of equipment in order to increase heat rejection capability of radiator. The thermal analysis is carried out for the hot case, Winter Solsitce EOL (End Of Life), in order to validate thermal design of the panel utilized 6 surface heat pipes and 8 embedded heat pipes. The sensitivity studies for the heat pipe failure case and no heat pipe case are performed and compared to its normal state. The heat transport capability of heat pipe is also obtained from these calculations.

The thermal analysis of electronic equipment is required to predict the reliability of electronic equipment being loaded on a satellite. The transient heat transfer of electronic equipment that was developed recently has been generated using a large-scale integration circuit. If there is a transient heat transfer between EEE(Electric, Electronic and Electro mechanical) parts, it may lead to failure the satellite mission. In this study, we performed the thermal design and analysis for reliability of APD(Antenna Pointing Driver) electronics for activation of a spaceborne X-band 2-axis antenna. The EEE parts were designed using a thermal mathematical model without the thermal mitigation element. In addition, thermal analysis was performed based on the worst case for verifying the reliability of EEE parts. For the thermal analysis results, the thermal stability of electronic equipment has been demonstrated by satisfying the de-rating junction temperature.

현재 AVC 장비의 운영방법은 하나의 센서가 고장 나면 해당 차로의 교통량 속도 차량 종류에 대한 모든 정보의 생성을 중단하고 있다. 현재의 운영방법은 정상 센서에서 수집한 자료들을 활용하지 않는다는 비효율이 존재한다. 본 연구는 이런 비효율을 개선하기 위하여 일부 센서가 고장 난 AVC (Automatic Vehicle Classification)장비에서 교통량과 속도의 산출 방법에 대하여 연구를 진행하였다. 센서의 고장유형을 총 4가지로 분류하였으며, 각 고장유형별로 교통량과 속도를 산출하고 이에 대한 정확도분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 교통량은 정확도가 매우 높은 값(정확도: 100%, 98%, 97%)으로 산출이 가능하였으며, 속도의 경우 충분히 받아들일 만한 수준의 속도 값(RMSE 값 16.9 이하)이 산출되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제시한 방법론들을 사용하면 AVC 장비의 운영 효율을 증가 시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls with precast steel-concrete composite modular (PSCCM) are strongly recommended in the structural design of nuclear power plants due to the need for a large number of process pipeline crossings and industrial construction. However, the effect of the PSCCM on the mechanical behavior of the whole RC shear wall is still unknown and has received little attention. In this study, three 1:3 scaled specimens, one traditional shear wall specimen (TW) and two shear wall specimens with the PSCCM (PW1, PW2), were designed and investigated under cyclic loadings. The failure mode, hysteretic curve, energy dissipation, stiffness and strength degradations were then comparatively investigated to reveal the effect of the PSCCM. Furthermore, numerical models of the RC shear wall with different PSCCM distributions were analyzed. The results show that the shear wall with the PSCCM has comparable mechanical properties with the traditional shear wall, which can be further improved by adding reinforced concrete constraints on both sides of the shear wall. The accumulated energy dissipation of the PW2 is higher than that of the TW and PW1 by 98.7 % and 60.0 %. The failure of the shear wall with the PSCCM is mainly concentrated in the reinforced concrete wall below the PSCCM, while the PSCCM maintains an elastic working state as a whole. Shear walls with the PSCCM arranged in the high stress zone will have a higher load-bearing capacity and lateral stiffness, but will suffer a higher risk of failure. The PSCCM in the low stress zone is always in an elastic working state.
