  • This paper proposes an effective method on the DFILS(Design for Integrated Logistics Support) in ammunition development applying QFD(Quality Function Deployment) method. The goal of this research is to define the Design for ILS approach at the start of the ammunition development and to yield a set of reusable requirements. Based on 000mm High-Explosive(Warship ammunition) development work, a QFD software tool, CUPID, was used to analyze and define the field force's requirements. Additionally, a set of reusable requirements are identified and defined for use during the Design for ILS development phase in the next-generation ammunition development process. These set of requirements that consider both the priority and importance of the VOC(Voice of Customer) will contribute to the early phase of the ammunition development to implement the Design for ILS specialty engineering effort.

  • With recent trend in domestic and global market requiring architectures' conversion into skyscrapers seasoned with the features of landmarks, structural problems in relation with explosive spatting during fire emergencies are arising as controversial issues. Accordingly, many productive researches have been made in relation to the reinforcement techniques for improving fire resistance and the number of applications in the field is gradually increasing. In this study, a ductile outline form using ECC (Engineered Cementations Composites) was made with improvements on the structure and fire resistance to examine its applicability. Also, currently in Japan, the number of studies and applications is increasing focusing on reduction of construction time and improvement of workability with application of Half-PCa method. However, using such method of construction, large structural members decrease the utilization of space and architecture-wise, there is a disadvantage of the weight increase. Therefore, in such context, it would be worth reducing the weight of the structural members by reducing the size using ECC. In addition, its excellent pseudo strain-hardening due to fiber may have great effects on seismic designs. In the mean time, this study planned 3 equal conditions for mix water, PVA fiber and additives excluding binder and refractory to evaluate the mechanical properties of resistance against pressure and internal force. Finally, an evaluation was executed on the fire resistance of the newly made ductile outline form. As a result, from ECC-I to ECC-III, all showed excellent mechanical properties due to pseudo strain-hardening and in the fire resistance test conducted with ISO 834 heating curve, most of them tended to be in the range of the reference temperature (538℃-180min), so there was no occurrence of any explosive spatting.

  • Pyrotechnic devices are widely used for space appendages. However, a cube satellite requirements do not permit the use of explosive pyrotechnic device. A nichrome burn wire release has typically been used for holding and release of deployable appendages of the cube satellite due to its simplicity and low cost. However, relatively low mechanical constraint force and system complexity for application of multi-deployable systems are disadvantages of the conventional mechanism. To overcome these drawbacks, we developed a hinge driving segmented nut type holding and release mechanism based on the nichrome burn wire release. The functional performance of the mechanism has been verified through release function test, static load test and shock level measurement test.

  • When a extreme loading such as blast is applied to prestressed concrete (PSC) structures and infrastructures for an instantaneous time, serious property damages and human casualties occur. However, a existing design procedure for PSC structures such as prestressed containment vessel (PCCV) and gas storage tank do not consider a protective design for extreme internal blast scenario. Particularly, an internal blast is much more dangerous than that of external blast. Therefore, verification of the internal blast loading is required. In this paper, the internal blast resistance capacity of PSC member is evaluated by performing internal blast tests on RC and bi-directional PSC scaled down specimens. The applied internal blast loads were 22.68, 27.22, and 31.75 kg (50, 60, and 70 lbs) ANFO explosive charge at 1,000 mm standoff distance. The data acquisitions include blast pressure, deflection, strain, crack patterns, and prestressing force. The test results showed that it is possible to predict the damage area to the structure when internal blast loading occurs in PCCV structures.

  • Three stages of population growth during last forty years affected differently to the labor force and employment in Korea. The first impact of rapid population growth on the labor force occured after the end of World War II. Sudden growth of population due to repartriation and refugees directly increased the labor force. Deteriorating labor market conditions were caused not only by the explosive labor supply but also by the shortage of employment opportunities due to a lack of productive facilities. This severe excess supply of labor continued until the early 196Os. Population growth in the second stage which caused by high fertility during the post Korean War baby boom period induced an eventual increase in the labor supply with time lag of more than fifteen years. Younger persons born during baby boom period were flooded the labor market. Fortunately, job opportunities were expanded more rapidly than the labor force supply because high rates of economic growth and speedy industrialization were continued until the later half of 1970s. Unemployment, therefore, decreased dramatically during this period. The effect of third stage which is characterized as mitigated population growth due to birth control has appeared in the labor market since late 1970s. The growth rate of labor force has been going down and the proportion of younger workers was also been decreasing. From the early 1980s, furthermore, partial disharmony between supply of and demand for the younger workers is closing up. Less educated younger workers who works at low wage are lacking while more educated youngers who want to work at high wage are being excess, because a lot of younger prefer higher education rather than productive job. It is expected that the structural inharmony will be diversified in the future in Korea. The labor force will be changed to middleaged, highly educated and womenized till year 2000, and, after then, to old-aged. On the demand side, industries and jobs will transferred to be labor-saving and soft. These structural changes of labor supply and demand will not matching in time. Aggregate supply of labor force will be steadily increasing more rapidly than aggregate demand for labor until year 2000, and this trend will continue to the first one or two decades of the 2lth century because the persons born dufing the baby boom pariod are being eligible couples in recent. Therefore, conclusion is that appropriate manpower development policy as well as sustained birth control policy is necessary for harmonizing the structural unbalance and the disequilibrium between aggregate labor supply and demand in the future.

  • Hinge driving type holding and release mechanism based on the burn wire release for application of cubesat is main payload of STEP Cube Lab. (Cube Laboratory for Space Technology Experimental Project) to be launched at 2015. It has high constraint force, low shock level as well as surmounting drawbacks of conventional nichrome burn wire release method that has relatively low constraint force and system complexity for application of multi-deployable systems. In this paper, we have proposed a flight model of holding and release mechanism for the verification of the constraint force and deployment status signal acquisition. To validate the effectiveness of the flight model, launch and on-orbit environment verification test have been performed.

  • Today's Internet does not have efficient traffic engineering mechanism to support QoS for the explosive increasing internet traffic such as various multimedia traffic. This functional shortage degrades prominently the quality of service, and makes it difficult to provide multi-media service and real-time service. Various technologies are under developed to solve these problems. IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) developed the MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) technology that provides a good capabilities of traffic engineering and is independent layer 2 protocol, so MPLS is expected to be used in the Internet backbone network$\^$[1][2]/. The faults occurring in high-speed network such as MPLS, may cause massive data loss and degrade quality of service. So fast network restoration function is essential requirement. Because MPLS is independent to layer 2 protocol, the fault detection and reporting mechanism for restoration should also be independent to layer 2 protocol. In this paper, we present the experimental results of the MPLS OAM function for the performance monitoring and fault detection 'll'&'ll' notification, localization in MPLS network, based on the OPNET network simulator

  • The fire damage of building wouid effect on the safety of structure. When the reinforced concrete structure is heated by high temperature due to the fire, the structural resisting-force will be decreased. In a way, it is a requirement to use high strength concrete for high rise building. Particularly, fire resistance properties of high-strength concrete is more important than normal strength concretes. The fire outbreak of a high strength concrete by sudden temperature rise is a main problem, and causes crack by thermal stress, loading to the deterioration of the durability. In this study, normal and high strength mortar were exposed to a high temperature environment. And than fundamental data for the character change of concrete heated highly were presented by measuring compressive strength of concrete with polypropylene and vinylon fiber, before and after heating. As the results, it is proven that high strength mortar with polypropylene and vinylon fiber for prevents deterioration of durability by fiber.

  • Shaped charge(SC) ammunition is a weapon that penetrates directly the target by made jet from metal liner on impacting at a target. In SC, the liner occupies significantly important role causing an explosion and penetration of the target. The Al-Ni composite coating was deposited on copper liner in a solid state via kinetic spraying to improve the explosive force. The mechanical properties, reactivity and microstructure were investigated to confirm the possibility of kinetic sprayed Al/Ni composite coating as a reactive liner material. Reactive liner using Al/Ni composite exhibited much enhanced reactivity than pure copper liner due to Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) reaction with significantly improved adhesive bond strength. Especially, among the Al/Ni composite coatings, AN11 (the Al versus Ni atomic percent ratio is 1:1) showed the greatest reactivity due to its widest reaction area between deposited Al and Ni.

  • A connecting rod is a crucial part for transmitting an explosive force to the crankshaft in the engine. Stress concentration in connecting rod due to the accumulation of the repeated load may initiate micro crack and result in a crucial break down of the component. Two approaches are adopted to obtain a robust design of connecting rod. Inner and outer array matrix based on combinations of control factors and noise factors are constructed for using Taguchi method. Calculated stress results for each element of matrix are plotted in the Goodman diagram. Robust design approach by Taguchi method reduces stress concentration occurred in small end fillet area of the default model. Variable stress approach using Goodman diagram also confirms a robust design by Taguchi method.
