Hybrid locomotive UGV with actively articulated legs along with wheeled ends has high traversability to travel over rough terrain. The behavior control method was usually adapted for the controlling of the suspension configuration which determines the traversability of the UGV. In this study, we are proposing a method of configuration planning of the legs without any detail geometric data about the terrain. The terrain was estimated by the traces of each wheel and the leg configurations for the desired posture of the vehicle were set up against the constraints of the terrain. Also, an optimal leg configuration was calculated based on the quasi-static stability and power consumption, and plans for the leg behavior were made. Validity of the proposed method was checked by simulations using some off-the-shelf programs, and showed that the orientation control without geometric features of terrains and simplification of the behavior planning for obstacle negotiation were possible.

A Rubber mount is widely used for mechanical parts or engineering materials. Especially, it plays an important role in reducing mechanical vibration due to cyclic loading. But, rubber mount is damaged due to the cyclic loading and resonance. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate evaluation of fatigue life considering vibration characteristics for rubber. In this study, a vibration fatigue analysis was performed and based on Power Spectral Density(PSD) and the stress-life curve and a result of frequency response analysis in the finite element method. The measured load history in experiment was transformed to PSD curve. The stress-life curve was obtained by nonlinear static analysis and fatigue test. In addition, frequency response analysis was conducted for mechanical part. In order to evaluate fatigue life of rubber mount, vibration fatigue test was conducted at the constant acceleration-level as well. Fatigue life was determined when the load capacity is reduced to 60% of its initial value. As a result, predicted fatigue life of rubber mount agreed fairly well with the experimental fatigue life.

Electrical breakdown characteristics of liquid nitrogen($LN_2$) used as both coolant and insulator for high $T_c$ superconductor system are very important. This paper presents dynamic breakdown characteristics fo $LN_2$ by quench phenomena of thermal bubble under high electric field. Experimental results revealed dynamic breakdown voltage fell down drastically compared with the static breakdown voltage without the quench. Because of increasing heat power, bubble size becomes big and breakdown voltage decreases. The breakdown voltage mechanism of $LN_2$ depends on thermal bubble effect. In the Electrode arrangement, electrical breakdown voltage of horizontal arrangement appears lower than that of vertical arrangement. Also, we observed the behavior of thermal bubbles in $LN_2$ which were generated after quench using camera.

본 연구에서는 $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3$와 Ti-6Al-4V로 이루어진 두 가지 유형의 경사기능재료 평판에 대한 열적 거동을 조사하였다. 경사기능 평판의 재료 물성치는 체적비의 멱지수 값에 따라 두께방향으로 연속적으로 변화하고, 평판의 윗면과 아랫면에 열하중이 가해지며 일정한 온도 조건을 유지한다고 가정하였다. FCM 사각 평판의 운동방정식은 해밀턴 변분 원리로 구하였으며, 나비에 기법으로 수치해를 얻었다. 체적비와 온도 변화에 대한 FCM 평판의 정적처짐과 고유진동수의 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다.

The mechanism of the inner resistance in a rubber crawler system has been investigated to reduce the power requirement (Kitano et al. 1994). The rolling resistance of the track roller, which is one of the major inner resistances, was measured for seven different vertical loads. The rolling resistance changed periodically and could be classified into three types. In case of the vertical load less than 500N, the rolling resistance was almost constant. For the vertical load greater than 500N, the maximum value of the rolling resistance increased. Further more in case of the vertical load greater than 1200N, negative resistance appeared. Analytical simulation of the travel resistance based on experimental results and static equilibrium equations derived from three-dimension mechanical model for the rubber crawler system. It was found that the simulation method was carried out to evaluate the travel resistance occurred by the rolling resistance of the track roller. The rolling resistance for each track roller arrangement and effects of the lug phase in the right and left rubber crawler could be estimated quantitatively.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to understand the operating mechanism of the rock-drill drifter, to explain how to setup an experimental test system and measure the strain of the drifter's rod, and to evaluate the drifter's performance with respect to the impact energy and blow frequency. Methods: The structure of the rock-drill drifter and its operating principle regarding the impact process were analyzed. Static calibration was carried out to calculate the correction factor using a drifter rod as the first step of the experimental test. The impact energy and blow frequency were then calculated based on strain measurements of the drifter's rod. Results: Experimental results showed that the tested drifter elicited a blow frequency of 3330 BPM (Blows Per Minute) and generated impact energy of 170 J/blow. This indicates that the drifter elicits a higher percussion speed and results in a lower impact energy compared to the hydraulic breaker at the same input power. Conclusions: The study proposed methodologies that deal with the experimental setup and the evaluation of the performance of the rock-drill drifter. These methodologies can be extensively used for validating and improving the percussion performance of the drilling equipment.

50 m급 비행선의 추진을 위한 복합재 프로펠러를 공력/구조 설계하였으며, 지상 성능 시험을 수행하였다. 먼저 와류-깃요소 이론을 적용하여 비행선의 최대 비행 속도 조건에서 최소 손실을 갖는 45 kW급 프로펠러를 설계하였다. 프로펠러는 직경 2m, 블레이드 수 3, 고정피치 방식을 적용하였으며, 추력 제어를 위해 RPM 조절방식을 채택하였다. 설계한 프로펠러의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 지상정지 상태에서 프로펠러의 피치각을 변화시켜 가며 추력과 토크를 측정하여 이론적 방법으로 계산한 추력계수, 동력계수와 비교하였으며, 시험결과와 이론적 계산 결과는 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

With the development of wind industry, rated power of the wind turbine also increases gradually. Accordingly, size of the wind turbine tower is becoming larger. Tower base diameter of the 2MW wind turbine is about 4m. Larger tower is expected for 4MW or 5MW turbines. Due to limitation of transportation, new type of tower with smooth transportation and effective cost is needed. In this work, a hybrid tower consisting of steel and concrete is designed and analyzed. The optimum ratio of steel and concrete of the hybrid tower is calculated as well as the thickness of the concrete part. Different FE analysis including modal analysis, buckling analysis and static analysis are performed to check the design of hybrid tower comparing with the steel tower. Redesign is also expected after various analyses.

Human Powered Aircraft (HPA) should be light in weight and have high efficiency because power source of propulsion is human muscles. Airframe structure takes up most of empty weight of aircraft, so weight reduction of structure is very important issue for HPA. In this paper, design/analysis/test procedures for ultra light weight structure of the HPA developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) are explained briefly. Structural design is conducted through case studies on HPA in the USA and Japan. Loads analysis is performed to calculate design loads which is needed for structural design and analysis. Structural analysis is conducted for structure sizing. Static strength test of main wing spar which is primary structure of wing is performed to verify structural integrity.

무선 모바일 환경에서 통신 장비의 에너지와 전송 대역폭의 제한을 해결하기 위하여 방송기법을 사용한다. 기존의 방송 스케줄링 방법들은 고정된 데이터 요청 빈도를 바탕으로 방송 스트림을 구성하기 때문에 사용자의 요구가 동적으로 변화하는 모바일 환경에서 활용하는 것은 비효율적이다. 또한 사용자의 우선순위를 고려하지 않음으로써 요청빈도가 낮은 데이터를 원하는 중요한 사용자가 오랜 시간 대기하는 상황이 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 실제 방송 청취를 시작한 사용자들의 프로파일 정보를 바탕으로 방송 스트림을 구성함으로써 동적인 변화를 반영할 뿐만 아니라, 사용자의 우선순위를 함께 고려함으로써 중요한 사용자의 대기시간을 줄일 수 있는 새로운 스케줄링 방법을 제안하고 실험을 통해 성능을 평가한다.
