The performance of full-scale steel and composite bridge safety barriers under vehicle crash is evaluated by using the nonlinear explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. Two types of vehicles used in this study are passenger car and truck, and the performance criteria considered include structural strength and deformation, occupant protection, and post-crash vehicle behavior. It can be concluded that the composite safety barrier satisfies all performance criteria of vehicle crash. Although the steel safety barrier satisfies the performance criteria of occupant protection and post-crash vehicle behavior, it fails to satisfy the performance criterion of deformation. In all performance evaluations, the composite safety barrier exhibits a superior performance in comparing with the steel safety barrier.

The pressure level and the insertion loss at the receiving point behind finite length noise barriers are measured in an anechoic room by scale model test. The measured sound pressure level which are conducted under the several experimental conditions such as the length of the noise barrier, the distance between the noise barrier and the receiving point, the number of noise barriers, and the existence of the reflective building behind receiving point) and the insertion loss of a noise barrier having simple shape are well agreed with theoretical calculation which is based on Lam's model.

Thermal barrier coating (TBC) is used to protect substrates and extend the operating life of gas turbines in power plant and aeronautical applications. The major causes of failure of such coatings is spallation, which results from thermal stress due to a thermal expansion coefficient mismatch between the top coating and the bond coating layers. In this paper, the effects of the material properties and the thickness of the top coating layer on thermal stresses were evaluated using the finite element method and the equation for the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch stress. In addition, we investigated a design technique for the top coating whereby thermal resistance is exploited.

This paper develops a finite element model for studying the crashworthiness analysis of a mid-size truck. A simulation for a truck frontal crash to a rigid barrier using the model is performed with PAM-CRASH installed in super computer SP2. Full vehicle model is composed of 86467 shell elements, 165 beam elements and 98 bar elements, and 86769 nodes. The model uses four material model such as elastic, elastic-plastic(steel), rigid and elastic-plastic(rubber) material model which are in PAM-CRASH. Frame and suspension system are modeled with 28774 shell elements and 31412 nodes. Cab is modeled with 34680 shell elements and 57 beam elements, and 36254 nodes. Bumper is modeled with 2262 shell elements, and 2508 nodes. Axle, steering shaft, etc are modeled using beam or bar elements. Mounting parts are modeled using rigid bodies. Bodies are interconnected using nodal constrains or joint options. To verify the developed model, frontal crash test with 30mph velocity to a rigid barrier is carried out. In the crash test, vehicle pulse at lower part of b-pillar is measured, and deformed shapes of frame and driver seat area are photographed. Those measured vehicle pulse and photographed pictures are compared those from the simulation to verify the developed finite element model.

The aim of this study was to determine residual stresses in thermal barrier coatings(TBCs) by isothermal heating. Specimens were heated at the range of $1000{\sim}1600^{\circ}C$. A finite element method was used to determine the residual stresses. Finite element coupled heat transfer and elastic-plastic thermal stress analysis using a general purpose commercial FEM software ABAQUS. I obtained the stresses were not affected below the temperature of $1400^{\circ}C$ but affected over that of temperature.

본 논문에서는 세탁기용으로 사용될 영구자석형 릴럭턴스 동기전동기(permanent-magnet assisted reluctance synchronous motor : PMA-RSM)의 설계와 특성에 대해서 살펴본다. 제안된 PMA-RSM의 특성과 최대 토크 특성을 알아보기 위해서 유한 요소법(finite element method)을 이용 하였다. 저속 구간에서의 충분한 토크를 발생시키기 위해서 회전자의 구조는 릴럭턴스 토크를 만들어내는 돌극 구조와 회전자 내부의 공극에 영구자석을 삽입하는 구조로 구성되어 있다. 전형적인 자속 장벽형(Flux barrier type) 릴럭턴스 동기전동기(RSM : Reluctance Synchronous Motor)와 자속 장벽(Flux barrier)에 자석을 삽입한 경우에 발생되는 현상들에 대해서 비교 분석하고, 또한 제안된 PMA-RSM의 릴럭턴스 토크(reluctance torque)와 자석에 의한 자석 토크(magnetic alignment torque)가 서로 최대가 되는 시점을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 구하며, 그 결과를 이용하여 전동기의 특성, 평균토크 그리고 토크 리플에 대해서 유한 요소법을 통하여 살펴보았다.

The prediction methods of diffraction field in barrier has beenreported much about the infinite length barrier and it is very few work that reasonable sound source was used in experiment. This study, however, has worked about the several model barrier with acoustic scale model experiment. In the case of scale model experiment, it is difficult to use the kind of source with sufficiently characteristics. A spark discharge sound source with the high repeatability, broad band spectra, small size and omnidirectivity has veen used for the prediction of diffraction field. Several model barriers with different length on the ground were considered for the experiment and compared with the the results calculated by the approximation.

Thermal barrier coating (TBC) is used to protect the substrate and extend the operating life of the gas turbine for a power plant and an aircraft. The major cause of failure of such a coating is the spallation of coating, and it results from the thermal stress between top coating and bond coating. To improve the durability of TBC system, the dense vertical cracked (DVC) coating method to insert vertical cracks is applied to a gas turbine blade. In this study, a criterion for the design of vertical crack in the DVC coating was presented using the finite element analysis.

The finite element method is employed in conjunction with micromechanical modelling in order to assess the performance of ceramic thermal barrier coatings applied to structural components. The study comprises the conditions of the deposition of the coating by plasma spraying as well as the thermal cycling of the coated component, and it addresses particularly turbine blades. They are exposed to high temperature changes strongly influencing the behaviour of the core material and inducing damage in the ceramic material by intense straining. A concept of failure analysis is discussed starting from distributed microcracking in the ceramic material, progressing to the formation of macroscopic crack patterns and examining their potential for propagation across the coating. The theory is in good agreement with experimental observations, and may therefore be utilized in proposing improvements for a delayed initiation of failure, thus increasing the lifetime of components with ceramic thermal barrier coatings.

해상처분장에서 내부 오염물질의 외부 유출을 방지하기 위하여 연직차수벽체가 설치된다. 연직차수벽체가 오염물질의 이동을 효과적으로 차단하기 위해서는 연직차수벽체가 해저지반의 적정 근입깊이까지 설치되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 연직차수벽체 근입심도에 따른 해저지반을 통한 침투 및 오염물질 이동특성을 분석하기 위하여 2차원 유한요소해석 프로그램인 SEEP/W를 이용한 침투해석과 3차원 유한차분해석 프로그램인 Visual Modflow를 이용한 오염물질 이동해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석결과, 연직차수벽체는 저투수성 지반으로 일정 깊이 이상 근입되면 오염물질 유출방지 효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 경제적인 연직차수벽체 설계를 위해서는 오염물질 이동을 차단할 수 있는 효과적인 최소 근입심도를 산정하여 적용하는 것이 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.
