  • Variety of methods were discussed to reduce the cogging force in tubular permanent magnet type linear single phase AC generator. In paticular, the proposed methods depend on the variations of the permanent magnet construction. These methods Include two approaches in the form of sloped magnets, and conical magnets in addition to the conventional method of varying the magnet length. The undesired cogging force ripples were calculated by a two dimensional Finite Element Method(FEM). Moreover, the generated electromotive force in the stator coils was calculated fur each configuration of the permanent magnet. The experimental results agreed well with those obtained from the FEM-based simulations. Sufficient reduction in the cogging force was achieved over the range of 40% while the root mean square of the output voltage was maintained. It was found that the sloping the permanent magnet decreased the cogging force and at the same time increased the generated rms voltage of the AC generator. The performance of the designed linear AC generator was evaluated in terms of its efficiency, total weight, losses, and power to weight ratio.

  • AZO transparent conductive thin films were grown on $SiO_2$/Si and glass substrates using diethylzinc (DEZ) and trimethylaluminium (TMA) as the precursor and $H_2O$ as oxidant by atomic layer deposition. The structural, electrical, and optical properties of the AZO films were characterized as a function of film thickness at a deposition temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. The AZO films with various thicknesses show well-crystallized phases and smooth surface morphologies. The 190-nm-thick AZO films grown on Coming 1737 glass substrates exhibit rms(root mean square) roughness of 8.8 nm, electrical resistivity of $1.5{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}-cm$, and an optical transmittance of 84% at 600nm wavelength. Atomic layer deposition technique for the transparent conductive oxide films is possible to apply for the deposition on flexible polymer substrates.

  • 친 환경적 소재인 ETFE (Ethylene Tetra Fluoro Ethylene)는 내화학성과 단열성을 가지며 탁월한 빛투과성, 자정효과 및 초경량 소재의 특성을 가진 열가소성 불소수지로서 서울시 신청사, Water Cube라고 많이 알려진 베이징 올림픽 수영 경기장 같은 대형 건축물의 외벽에 사용될 만큼 최근 세계 각국의 건축가들에게 각광을 받고 있다. 본 실험에서는 영구자석을 이용한 고밀도 플라즈마로 높은 점착성과, 균일한 박막 및 대면적 공정이 가능한 RF-magnetron sputtering방법으로 기판인 Slide glass위에 ETFE를 증착하여 접촉각의 변화와 구조적 및 광학적 특성에 대하여 측정하였다. 접촉각 측정결과 35w에서 $15^{\circ}$ 이하의 친수 특성을 나타내었고, 자외선 파장에서의 투과율 측정 결과 87% 이상의 높은 투과율을 나타내었다. AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) 측정결과 35 W에서 1.6 nm의 RMS (Root mean square)값이 측정 되었다. ETFE 특성은 비가 오면 자동으로 이물질이 씻겨 내려 주기적으로 청소를 해줘야하는 유리보다 유지관리비가 적게 될 것으로 사료되고, 높은 자외선 투과율을 보임으로 온실에서 균형 잡힌 식물 성장을 위한 화학약품의 소모를 줄여 줄 것으로 사료된다.

  • In this paper, the characteristic of the regenerative pump is reviewed by the measurement and the analysis. The dominant noise sources are harmonic components of the rotating impeller frequency. The acoustic characteristics and the noise source position at the dump are identified. In order to reduce the high-level peak noise, the interior flow of the pump chamber is analyzed by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). Acoustic pressure is calculated with Ffowscs Williams and Hawkings equation. As the result of the analysis new design of the pump chamber is recommended. The recommended pump is compared with original pump by evaluating the RMS value of a interior static pressure and the sound pressure level. The new pump chamber recommended by analysis results is proved by a process of the measurement. The overall SPL of a recommended pump is reduced about 3 dBA.

  • In this research, the vulnerability of some reinforced concrete frames with different stories are studied based on the Park-Ang Damage Index. The damages of the frames are investigated under various earthquakes with nonlinear dynamic analysis in IDARC software. By examining the most important characteristics of earthquake parameters, the damage index and vulnerability of these frames are investigated in this software. The intensity of Erias, velocity spectral intensity (VSI) and peak ground velocity (PGV) had the highest correlation, and root mean square of displacement ($D_{rms}$) had the lowest correlation coefficient among the parameters. Then, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was used, and the sinusoidal waves were equivalent to the used earthquakes according to the most influential parameters above. The damage index equivalent to these waves is estimated using nonlinear dynamics analysis. The comparison between the damages caused by earthquakes and equivalent sinusoidal waves is done too. The generations of sinusoidal waves equivalent to different earthquakes are generalized in some reinforced concrete frames. The equivalent sinusoidal wave method was exact enough because the greatest difference between the results of the main and artificial accelerator damage index was about 5 percent. Also sinusoidal waves were more consistent with the damage indices of the structures compared to the earthquake parameters.

  • Black cobalt solar selective coatings were prepared by thermal oxidation of electroplated cobalt metal on copper and nickel substrates. The optical properties and structure of the black cobalt selective coating for solar energy utilizations were characterized by glow discharge spectrometry (GDS), ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-VIS-NIR) spectrometer, atom force microscopy(AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The optical properties of optimum black cobalt selective coating prepared on copper substrate were a solar absorptance of 0.82 and a thermal emittance of 0.01. From the GDS depth profile analysis of these coatings, the concentration of cobalt particles near the interface was higher than at the surface, but oxygen concentration at the surface was higher than at the interface. These results suggest that the selective absorption was dominated by this chemical composition variation in the coating. The surface of this film exhibited morphology with root-mean-square(rms) roughness of about 144.3nm. XPS measurements data showed that several phases of Co coexist($Co_3O_4$,CoO) in the film.

PLED 제작시 MEH-PPV 의 농도를 ($0.1\;wt\%\;{\~}\;0.9\;wt\%$) 변수로 하여 박막의 표면 거칠기와 박막 층의 마찰재수(friction coefficient) 측정을 통하여 농도에 따른 특성 변화를 조사하였다. MEH-PP 의 농도를 $0.1\;wt\%$ 에서 $0.9\;wt\%$ 로 증가함에 따라 발광 층의 RMS (root mean square)같은 1.72 nm 에서 1.00 nm 로 감소하여 거칠기가 개선되는 경향을 보여 주었다. 그러나 박막간의 마찰계수는 0.048 에서 0.035 로 감소하여 박막간의 접합상태가 나빠지는 현상을 나타내었다. 소자의 전기, 광학적 특성의 경우 MEH-PPV 농도가 $0.5\;{\~}\;0.9\;wt\%$ 범위에서 약 0.35 mA (at 9V)의 전류밀도를 나타내었으며, 최대 휘도는 $0.5\;wt\%$ 농도에서 $409\;cd/m^2$의 값을 나타내었다.

  • This study evaluated the vibration use and safety of students living in the dormitories on the 12th and 14th floors by feeling uncomfortable. The measurement method was to measure the acceleration due to free vibration and single - person walking. The slab stiffness was then calculated, and the usability and safety were compared according to international standards. The natural frequency of the slab was 6.8 Hz. The natural frequency of a typical slab is around 15Hz. Therefore, the evaluation slab is judged as a flexible floor structure. It is considered that there is a high possibility of resonance in the middle of daily life because of low natural frequency and near harmonic component of walking vibration. As a result, the RMS acceleration level is within the tolerance range defined by ISO 10137 code, but the 13th floor exceeds the reference limit, so that a sensitive person could detect the vibration somewhat in the lying position.

  • This study is designed to reduce worker fatigue, improve efficiency and provide a functional working environment based on previous studies that pain occurs in the shoulder area, especially the upper trapezius muscle, when the keyboard height is not appropriate. In this study, the height of the keyboard is four, the height of the elbow and desk is the same height, the height of the desk is 3cm lower than the elbow, the height of the desk is 6cm high, and the height is 9cm high. When working on the keyboard, the wrist and forerunner were organized into four groups of 10 people so that the height was different for each group. When the height of the keyboard is given in various ways compared to the height of the elbow of the subject, it is verified whether there is a difference in the RMS (Root Mean Square) of the upper trapezius muscle. The results of this study showed that the muscle activity of the upper trapezius muscle cap was significant only in the left and right keyboard height -4cm, 0cm, +4cm, +8cm group, but the difference in muscle activity was not significant in the rest group. The first study will require a study of the control of the factors affecting the tension of the subjects, the measurement of muscle activity against various muscles, and whether the length of the shoulder and fingertips of the subject affect muscle activity according to the keyboard type.

  • Anisotropic distribution of the turbulent kinetic energy and the near-field excitations are the main causes of the steady state Flow-Induced Vibration (FIV) which could lead to fretting wear damage in vertically arranged supported slender rods. In this article, a combined Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational Structural Mechanic (CSM) approach named two-way Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) is used to investigate the modal characteristics of a typical rod's vibration. Performance of an Unsteady Reynolds-Average Navier-Stokes (URANS) and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence models on asymmetric fluctuations of the flow field are investigated. Using the LES turbulence model, any large deformation damps into a weak oscillation which remains in the system. However, it is challenging to use LES in two-way FSI problems from fluid domain discretization point of view which is investigated in this article as the innovation. It is concluded that the near-wall meshes whiten the viscous sub-layer is of great importance to estimate the Root Mean Square (RMS) of FIV amplitude correctly as a significant fretting wear parameter otherwise it merely computes the frequency of FIV.
