This paper conducts a study on methods for associating multipath tracks received by a horizontal line array sonar. The horizontal line array sonar introduces conical bearing ambiguities due to its array-shaped characteristics. Target signals are often subject to multipath propagation in the ocean, resulting in errors in target bearing estimation due to these bearing ambiguities. Recent research efforts have been directed toward using multipath tracks to estimate the positions of targets. However, there has been a lack of research dedicated to identifying multipath tracks from the measurements of a horizontal line array sonar. Therefore, this study identifies the conical bearing characteristics of multipath signals based on the result of experiment and establishes criteria for associating multipath tracks. Additionally, Simulations are performed to determine the ability to associate multipath tracks.

Long-short pile composite foundations bear both vertical and horizontal loads in many engineering applications. This study used indoor model tests to determine the horizontal bearing mechanism of a composite foundation with long and short piles under horizontal loads. A custom experimental device was developed to prevent excessive eccentricity of the vertical loading device caused by the horizontal displacement. ABAQUS software was used to analyze the influence of the load size and cushion thickness on the horizontal bearing mechanism. The results reveal that a large vertical load leads to soil densification and increases the horizontal bearing capacity of the composite foundation. The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the pile and the horizontal load borne by the pile are related to the piles' positions. Due to different pile lengths, the long piles exhibit long pile effects and experience bending deformation, whereas the short piles rotate around a point (0.2 L from the pile bottom) as the horizontal load increases. Selecting a larger cushion thickness significantly improves the horizontal load sharing capacity of the soil and reduces the horizontal displacement of the pile top.

Fiber Reinforced Elastomeric Bearings (FREBs) are a relatively new type of laminated bearings that can be used as seismic/vibration isolators or bridge bearings. In an unbonded (U)-FREB, the bearing is placed between the top and bottom supports with no bonding or fastening provided at its contact surfaces. Under shear loads the top and bottom faces of a U-FREB roll off the contact supports and the bearing exhibits rollover deformation. As a result of rollover deformation, the horizontal response characteristics of U-FREBs are significantly different than conventional elastomeric bearings that are employed in bonded application. Current literature lacks an efficient analytical horizontal stiffness solution for this type of bearings. This paper presents two simplified analytical models for horizontal stiffness evaluation of U-FREBs. Both models assume that the resistance to shear loads is only provided by an effective region of the bearing that sustains significant shear strains. The presented models are different in the way they relate this effective region to the horizontal bearing displacements. In comparison with experimental results and finite element analyses, the analytical models that are presented in this paper are found to be sufficiently accurate to be used in the preliminary design of U-FREBs.

언더피닝 공법으로 주로 활용된 마이크로파일은 신설 구조물지지와 사면안정 등 활용목적에 따라 현장에 많이 적용되고 있다. 그러나 이와 같이 활용됨에도 불구하고, 마이크로파일의 수평지지특성에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 파일설치조건에 따라 달라지는 마이크로파일의 수평지지특성을 알아보기 위해 모형시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과, L/d ${\leq}20$의 경우에는 $\theta$ = $+30^{\circ}$, L/d ${\geq}60$인 경우 $\theta$ = $-30^{\circ}$인 마이크로파일의 수평지지력을 효과적으로 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다.

마이크로파일의 활용증가로 수행되었던 마이크로파일의 관련연구를 통해 다양한 마이크로파일이 개발되어왔다. 개발되고 있는 마이크로파일 공법들 중 최근 수평지지력(내진저항력)의 증가를 위한 목적으로 개발된 삼축 마이크로파일(Triaxial micropile, TMP)이 대표적이라 할 수 있다. 삼축 마이크로파일은 각축에 경사지게 설치된 3개의 마이크로파일이 수평하중에 저항하므로 좀 더 효과적으로 수평하중에 저항할 수 있는 공법의 장점이 있다. 그러나 삼축 마이크로파일에 대한 지지특성에 대한 연구가 부족하여 이 파일공법을 효과적으로 활용하는데 문제가 있다. 즉, 삼축 마이크로파일(TMP)의 효과적인 활용을 위해서는 파일의 수평지 지력에 영향을 주는 요인에 대한 지지력 평가가 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 하중 방향별 현장수평재하시험을 수행하고 3차원 유한요소해석을 통해 현장 재하시험을 검증하고 거동 특성을 고찰하였으며, 수평하중의 방향을 고려한 적정한 수평지지력을 분석하였다.

In this study, the performance of foil thrust bearings was investigated by performing bearing take-off and load capacity tests, using an in-house designed and manufactured vertical bearing test rig. The mean take-off rotational speed and maximum load capacity of the bearing specimen were ~18,000 rpm and ~80 kPa, respectively. The vertical bearing test rig was observed to yield higher coefficients of friction and frictional torques than a horizontal bearing test rig under identical test conditions. This was a result of its structural characteristics, in that the bearing specimen is placed atop the thrust runner, which keeps it from being separated from the runner after the bearing take-off. In addition, bearing take-off was observed at a higher runner rotational speed as this structure keeps air from flowing between the top foil and runner surfaces, which requires a higher runner speed. The parallel alignment between the bearing specimen and runner surfaces can be maintained within a certain range more easily in a vertical test rig than in a horizontal test rig. Because of these advantages, Korean Industrial Standard, KS B 2060, recommends a vertical bearing test rig as the standard test device for foil thrust bearings.

The load characteristics of engine main bearing are very important in the design of crankshaft and engine block. The stiffness of crankshaft and block, or the optimal dimension of the bearing can be determined according to the load level. This paper presents the load characteristics of engine main bearing. Two components of the main bearing load are measured during engine firing and motoring. The vertical and horizontal load components are measured by using the dynamic load cell mounted in each main bearing cap bolt. The measured main bearing loads are compared with calculated results by using the statically determinate method. The theoretical results, provided in this study, agreed well with the experimental results. The presented results are very useful for achieving optimal design of engine.

We analyzed the measured acoustic field to explore the characteristics of a horizontal coherence in shallow water. Signal spatial coherence data were obtained in the continental shelf off the east coast of Korea using a horizontal line array. The array was deployed on the bottom of 130 m water depth and a sound source was towed at 26 m depth in the source-receiver ranges of 1-13 ㎞. The source transmitted 200 ㎐ pure tone. Topography and temperature profiles along the source track were measured to investigate the relationship between the horizontal coherence and environment variations. The beam bearing disturbance and array signal gain degradation is examined as parameters of horizontal coherence. The results show that the bearing disturbance is about ± 8° and seems to be affected by temporal variations of temperature caused by internal waves. The array signal gains show degradation more than 5㏈ by the temporal and spatial variations of temperature and by the down-sloped topography.

면진베어링으로 기존에 사용되고 있는 철판보강 면진베어링에서 철판을 섬유로 대체하여 섬유보강 면진베어링을 설계 및 제작하였다. 섬유면진보강베어링의 특성을 파악하기 위해서 철판보강 면진베어링과 섬유보강 면진베어링에 대해 수평실험과 압축실험을 수행하였다. 시험결과 섬유보강 면진베어링의 유효 감쇠는 천연고무 면진베어링에 비해서 높았다. 이 결과는 지진하중하에서 섬유보강 면진베어링은 에너지 분산능력이 뛰어나다는 것을 의미한다. 이 연구결과로 인해 섬유보강 면진베어링이 저가건물에 널리 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study analyzed the characteristics of four kinds of bridge rubber pads and suggested how to determine the stiffness the pads. The stiffness of rubber pads can be estimated by a direct static test. In the procedure to estimate the stiffness of a pad, the dead load(preload) of a bridge and live load of a vehicle are considered. The polyurethane rubber pads have larger hardness than natural and chloroprene rubber pads and thus carry larger load bearing capacity. In addition, they showed higher stiffness with the same shape factor than the others and thus are more avaliable as for bridge bearings. Although natural and chloroprene rubber pads are elongated to large deformation in horizontal direction due to vertical loads, polyurethane rubber pads almost do not generate horizontal deformation due to vertical loads regardless to the thickness and hardness of the pads. Therefore, they do not need reinforced plate to restrict horizontal deformation.
