  • In this paper, we propose a development method of portable Automatic Test Equipment based on PXIe platform. Legacy VME form factor structured test equipment has limited reuse and expansion of modules due to unapplied bus specification. In particular, these limitations can cause development periods and costs to increase, and the reliability of environmental conditions is lacking due to non-standard modules. The test equipment of the proposed PXIe platform can use diverse COTS modules to shorten the development period and minimize the instability between developments. The PXIe development module works with standard Xilinx FPGAs, PXIe Windows device drivers, and applications on standard PXIe buses. The use of standard bus and COTS modules increases scalability and reusability, enabling rapid development and excellent maintenance. Through the test, we show the proposed test equipments can be implemented efficiently between the development processes and proved their reliability through function tests and environmental tests.

  • Helical structures made of superelastic shape memory alloys are widely used as interventional medical devices and active actuators. These structures generally undergo large deformation during expansion or actuation. Currently their behaviour is modelled numerically using the finite element method or obtained through experiments. Analytical tools are absent. In this paper, an analytical approach has been developed for analyzing the mechanical responses of such structures subjected to axial and torsional loads. The simulation results given by the analytical approach have been compared with both numerical and experimental data. Good agreements between the results indicate that the analysis is valid.

  • The HELlOS-MASTER code system is verified through the benchmark of the critical experiments that were performed by RRC "Kurchatov Institute" with water-moderated hexagonally pitched lattices of highly enriched Uranium fuel rods (8Ow/o). We also used the same input by using the MCNP code that was described in the evaluation report, and compared our results with those of the evaluation report. HELlOS, developed by Scandpower A/S, is a two-dimensional transport program for the generation of group cross-sections, and MASTER, developed by KAERI, is a three-dimensional nuclear design and analysis code based on the two-group diffusion theory. It solves neutronics model with the AFEN (Analytic Function Expansion Nodal) method for hexagonal geometry. The results show that the HELIOSMASTER code system is fast and accurate enough to be used as nuclear core analysis tool for hexagonal geometry.ometry.

  • During the cooling process of rail, residual stresses are produced due to the difference of the coefficients of thermal expansion between rail and inhomogeneous non-metallic inclusions such as sulphides and oxides. A micro-mechanical approach is used to obtain the stresses in the inclusions and matrix, After obtaining the stress of an elliptical inhomogeneous inclusion in an infinite domain, average stresses of randomly distributed spherical inclusions are obtained by use of Mori-Tanaka's self consistent method. The magnitude of the calculated residual stress is near to the yield stress of the matrix in case of the spherical inclusions.

  • The steam generator, one of the major components in the reactor coolant system, plays an important role in transferring the thermal energy made in the reactor during normal operation to the secondary side and producing steam to drive turbine. A hydraulic snubber system is used in order to protect the steam generator under the dynamic loading condition and to absorb the thermal expansion transmitted by the reactor coolant piping due to high temperature and pressure during normal operation. In this study, the model for a geometrical linkage system is presented to analyze the snubber stroke of the steam generator and the parameters in the snubber stroke analysis are investigated. A method to analyze lever ratio of the linkage system which is required in the process of determining the snubber stiffness value is also presented. To discuss the validation of the suggested analysis, the analysis results are compared with the measured data during the hot functional test for the standardized 1000 Mwe pressurized water reactor plant under the construction.

  • 본 논문에서는 열-전기-기계 하중 하의 지능형 복합재료 보 모델을 전산점근해석기법에 기초하여 개발하였다. 열-전기-기계 하중 하의 구조물은 지난 십년간 많은 연구가 있어왔으나, 주로 고전적 보 모델에 기반을 두어 진행되어져 왔다. 멀티피직스 환경하의 구조물은 여러 가지 하중의 조합과 이에 따른 연성효과의 고려가 필수적이다. 따라서 공학적인 가정이 없는 점근해석기법은 보다 정확한 등가 보 모델을 개발하는데 있어 기반요소가 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 멀티피직스 구성방정식으로부터 출발하여 점근기법을 적용 체계적으로 등가 보 모델을 유도하고 그 해석 결과를 고찰하고자 한다.

  • Since the embedded system is more intelligent, the importance of the reliability in the embedded system is a lot more visible. Especially the reliability of the embedded system in the train control system is even better important. As the special quality of the embedded system, the hardware of the system is directly controlled by the software in the embedded system. As the expansion of complexity, the expense amd the time for verification is required more and more. This paper is presented the verification of the reliability as the method with background of failure Embedded system is gradually, the importance of 'A built-in on the system embedded system's reliability is focused. In particular, in the train control system built-in of the embedded system, reliability is even more important. The embedded system of the system controls over hardware, software with built-in directly. The more complex system is, the more increasable of depending on the reliability of the time verification and expensive is. This paper is about he characteristics of the reliability and verification of embedded system under the failure mechanisms, based on the verification methodology suggested by in the train control system.

  • This paper evaluates thequality of synthesized speech by rule using the LPC CD in the objective measure and then compares the result with the subjective analysis. By evaluating the quality of synthesized speech by rule objectively. We have tried to resolve the problems (Evaluation time or size expansion, variables within the analysis results) that arise when the evaluation is done subjectively. Also by comparing intelligibility-the index for the subjective quality evaluation of synthesized speech by rule-with evaluation results obtained using MOS and the objective evaluation. We have proved the validity of the objective analysis and thus provides a guide that would be useful when R&D and marketing of synthesis by rule method is done.
