  • Free Standing Hybrid Riser (FSHR) is comprised of vertical steel risers and Flexible Jumpers (FJ). They are jointly connected to a submerged Buoyancy Can (BC). There are several factors that have influence on the behavior of FSHR such as the span distance between an offshore platform and a foundation, BC up-lift force, BC submerged location and FJ length. An optimization method through a parametric study is presented. Firstly, descriptions for the overall arrangement and characteristics of FSHR are introduced. Secondly, a flowchart for optimization of FSHR is suggested. Following that, it is described how to select reasonable ranges for a parametric study and determine each of optimal configuration options. Lastly, numerical analysis based on this procedure is performed through a case study. In conclusion, the relation among those parameters is analyzed and non-dimensional parametric ranges on optimal arrangements are suggested. Additionally, strength analysis is performed with variation in the configuration.

  • The FPCB is used as the important component of the sliding mechanism of mobile phones. FPCB have been used as jumper cables(fixed wiring) in various types of circuits because of their flexibility and bending property. The dominant failure mode of the FPCB is open that was caused by fatigue. The fatigue is repeated whenever the sliding is open, so it is a mainly cause of FPCB fatigue. We examined the bending-fatigue lifetime of FPCB. we focused on observing the contact resistance degradation of FPCB of mobile phones according to different test condition of bending strain. As a result, it has proved that lifetime decreased by increasing bending strain.

  • 배전선로는 항상 각종 공작물과 아주 가까운 상태에서 존재하고 있어 배전선로 근접 작업 시 전력선에 근접으로 인한 섬락 또는 접촉으로 작업원이 감전 재해를 입을 수 있으며 또는 비, 바람, 조류 등에 의한 이물 접촉으로 설비 고장을 유발 시킬 수 있다. 이러한 감전재해 및 설비고장을 예방하기 위하여 22.9kV-y 전력선의 직선부분에 사용할 수 있는 직선형 방호관을 개발하여 건설현장 주변의 전력선에 방호조치 함으로서 전력선 근접 작업 시 작업종사자의 안전 확보에 이바지함은 물론 정전사고방지에도 크게 기여하여 왔다. 그러나 22.9kV-y 배전선로의 점퍼선부분과 변압기의 인상선 등 곡선으로 되었거나 구불구불한 형상으로 된 부위는 직선형 방호관으로는 방호조치가 불가능하여 산업안전보건법이 정한 산업안전기준에 관한 규칙 제327조 제2호에 의한 방호조치를 취하지 않고 근접작업이 진행되어 감전재해와 정전사고가 발생되어 왔었다. 한전에서 협력업체와 공동으로 연구개발한 소용돌이형 점퍼선방호관을 그동안 방호조치를 취하지 못한 점퍼선이나 구불구불한 전력선부위에 방호조치를 함으로서 감전재해의 예방과 정전사고 발생을 획기적으로 감소시킬 것으로 기대된다.
