지구 관측용 광학탑재체를 포함하는 정지궤도 복합위성에는 관측 대상인 지구의 기준위치 정보를 제공하기 위해 적외선 지구센서가 장착된다. 정지궤도상에서 지구센서와 관측 탑재체사이의 지향차는 그 크기가 작더라도 관측 영상의 품질에 심각한 영향을 미칠 가능성이 있다. 따라서 이러한 지향차를 줄이기 위해 궤도상에서 기하학적 안정성을 보장할 수 있는 지지구조물이 적용되었다. 본 논문에서는 통신해양기상위성에서 지구센서 장착을 위해 사용된 지지구조물에 대한 설계 측면의 타당성을 제시한다. 이를 위해 설계 전반의 내용을 기술하고, 설계과정에서 고려된 안정성 측면의 제반 사항과 강성과 강도 등의 요구조건에 대한 부합 여부를 살펴볼 것이다.

This paper presents the design and the control performance of a novel dynamic compliant-arm support with parallel elastic actuators that was developed to assist with the daily living activities of those whose arms are compromised by muscular disease or the aging process. The parallel elastic-arm support consists of a compliant mechanism with combined passive and active components for human interaction and to reach the user's desired positions. The achievement of these tasks requires impedance control, which can change the virtual stiffness, damping coefficients, and equilibrium points of the system; however, the desired-position tracking by the impedance control is limited when the end-effector weight varies according to the equipping of diverse objects. A prompt algorithm regarding weight calibration and friction compensation is adopted to overcome this problem. A result comparison shows that, by accurately assessing the desired workspace, the proposed algorithm is more effective for the accomplishment of the desired activities.

열차의 하중을 적절한 강성으로 지지하기 위하여 다짐시공된 노반의 효과적인 강성특성 평가 기법에 대한 연구가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 상부노반에 대하여 크로스홀 형태의 동적 콘 관입기(CDCP)를 적용함으로써 심도에 따른 강성특성을 평가하고자 하였다. CDCP의 적용을 위하여 세 단면의 다짐시공 완료된 상부노반이 대상 현장으로 선택되었으며, 각각의 개소에 대하여 CDCP 관입실험 및 들밀도시험, 동평판재하시험(LFWD)이 수행되었다. CDCP 관입실험 결과, 심도에 따른 탄성파 발신시간 및 전단파 수신시간을 획득하였으며, 이를 이용하여 노반의 전단파속도 주상도를 획득하였다. 또한, 동일 개소에서 들밀도시험으로부터 획득한 노반의 밀도 및 전단파속도 주상도를 이용하여 심도에 따른 최대전단강성계수($G_{max}$)를 평가할 수 있었다. CDCP 관입실험 및 들밀도시험으로부터 평가된 최대전단강성계수와 LFWD시험으로부터 획득한 동탄성계수($E_{vd}$)를 상호비교한 결과 매우 우수한 선형관계를 보이므로, CDCP 관입실험으로부터 유효한 강성특성을 평가할 수 있을 것이라 판단되었다. 또한, CDCP 관입실험으로부터 도출되는 결과는 일정 심도에 대한 대표 강성특성이 아닌 심도에 따른 연속적인 강성특성 이므로 노반의 강성특성 평가에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

본 논문에서는 기초지반의 강성이 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 영향에 대한 내용을 다루었다. 기초지반의 강성이 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 근본적인 메카니즘을 고찰하기 위해 보강토 옹벽에 대한 축소모형실험을 수행하였으며 축소모형실험 결과의 타당성을 검토하고 모형실험에서 다룰 수 없었던 다양한 조건을 고려함과 아울러서 현장옹벽 응력수준의 거동을 고찰하기 위해 가상의 현장옹벽에 대해 유한요소해석을 이용한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다. 모형실험 및 유한요소해석 결과에 의하면 기초지반의 강성이 감소할수록 벽체의 변위는 현저히 증가하며, 이러한 벽체변위 증가 현상은 보강토체 내부변형보다는 보강토체의 강체 거동으로 인해 야기되는 메카니즘을 보이는 것으로 나타나 기초지반에 관련된 문제를 외적안정성의 개념에서 다루고 있는 현 설계기준은 타당한 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서는 모형실험 및 유한요소해석 결과를 종합하여 실무적 측면에서의 중요성을 다각적으로 고찰하였다.

This paper investigates the radial performance of self-acting spiral-grooved air bearing, used to support small high-speed rotating bodies. Repeatable runout, nonrepeatable runout, stiffness and supporting load are selected as the performance. The clearance between rotor and stator, the stator groove depth, and the rotating speed are chosen as three main parameters affecting the performances. Force application and displacement measurement are done in a noncontact manner, in order not to disturb operation: electromagnetic force is applied to the rotor and gap sensors are used to measure the displacement of the rotor. Experimental results show that repeatable runout decreases as speed, groove depth and clearance decrease. Nonrepeatable runout decreases as clearance decreases, and it has a minimum value at $5.5{\mu}m$ of grove depth and a maximum value at speed of 18.000rpm. Stiffness increases as speed increases and clearance decreases, and has a maximum value around $5.5{\mu}m$ of groove depth. The relationship between force and displacement is linear for small displacement, but becomes nonlinear for large displacement. Supporting load is linearly proportional to the stiffness, and it is a maximum value around $4.75{\mu}m$ of clearance.

Offshore wind turbines are considered as a fundamental part to develop substantial, alternative energy sources. In this highly flexible structures, monopiles are usually used as support foundations. Since the monopiles are large diameter (3.5 to 7 m) deep foundations, they result in extremely stiff short monopiles where the slenderness (length to diameter) may range between 5 and 10. Consequently, their elastic deformation patterns under lateral loading differ from those of small diameter monopiles usually employed for supporting structures in offshore oil and gas industry. For this reason, design recommendations (API and DNV) are not appropriate for designing foundations for offshore wind turbine structures as they have been established on the basis of full-scale load tests on long, slender and flexible piles. Furthermore, as these facilities are very sensitive to rotations and dynamic changes in the soil-pile system, the accurate prediction of monopile head displacement and rotation constitutes a design criterion of paramount importance. In this paper, the Fourier Series Aided Finite Element Method (FSAFEM) is employed for the determination of static impedance functions of monopiles for OWT subjected to horizontal force and/or to an overturning moment, where a non-homogeneous soil profile has been considered. On the basis of an extensive parametric study, and in order to address the problem of head stiffness of short monopiles, approximate analytical formulae are obtained for lateral stiffness $K_L$, rotational stiffness $K_R$ and cross coupling stiffness $K_{LR}$ for both rough and smooth interfaces. Theses expressions which depend only on the values of the monopile slenderness $L/D_p$ rather than the relative soil/monopile rigidity $E_p/E_s$ usually found in the offshore platforms designing codes (DNV code for example) have been incorporated in the expressions of the OWT natural frequency of four wind farm sites. Excellent agreement has been found between the computed and the measured natural frequencies.

Shear walls have high stiffness and strength; however, they lack energy dissipation and repairability. In this study, an innovative slotted shear wall featuring vertical slots and steel energy dissipation connectors was developed. The ductility and energy dissipation of the shear wall were improved, while sufficient bearing capacity and structural stiffness were retained. Furthermore, the slotted shear wall does not support vertical forces, and thus it does not have to be arranged continuously along the height of the structure, leading to a much free arrangement of the shear wall. A frame-slotted shear wall structure that combines the conventional frame structure and the innovative shear wall was developed. To investigate the ductility and hysteretic behavior of the slotted shear wall, finite element models of two walls with different steel connectors were built, and pushover and quasi-static analyses were conducted. Numerical analysis results indicated that the deformability and energy dissipation were guaranteed only if the steel connectors yielded before plastic hinges in the wall limbs were formed. Finally, a modified D-value method was proposed to estimate the bearing capacity and stiffness of the slotted shear wall. In this method, the wall limbs are analogous to columns and the connectors are analogous to beams. Results obtained from the modified D-value method were compared with those obtained from the finite element analysis. It was found that the internal force and stiffness estimated with the modified D-value method agreed well with those obtained from the finite element analysis.

Micropiled raft has been used to support the existing and new structures or to provide the seismic reinforcement of foundation systems. Recently, research on micropile or micropiled raft has been actively conducted as the usage of micropile has increased, and the reinforcement effect of pile for the raft, the pile installation methods, and methods for calculating the bearing capacity of micropiled raft have been proposed. In addition, existing research results show that the behavior of this foundation system is different depending on the pile conditions and can be greatly influenced by the characteristics of the upper or lower ground depending on the conditions of pile. In other words, considering that the micropile is a friction pile, it can be predicted that the reinforcing effect of micropile for the raft and the bearing capacity of micropiled raft may depend on the cohesion of upper soil layer depending on the pile conditions. However, existing studies have limitations in that they were conducted without taking this into account. However, existing studies have limitations as they have been conducted without considering these characteristics. Accordingly, this study investigated the reinforcing effect of micropile and the bearing characteristics of micropiled raft by varying the cohesion of upper soil layer and the stiffness of pile which affect the behavior of micropiled raft. In this results, the reinforcing effect of micropile on the raft also increased as the cohesion of soil layer increased, but the reinforcing effect of pile was more effective in ground conditions with decreased the cohesion. In addition, the relationship between the axial stiffness of micropile and the bearing capacity of micropiled raft was found to be a logarithmic linear relationship. It was found that the reinforcing effect of micropile can increase the bearing capacity of raft by 1.33~ 3.72 times depending on the cohesion of soil layer and the rigidity of pile.

Objectives : This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of ampule containing herbal extract(Ulmus davidiana, Ginkgo biloba, Perilla ocymoides, Morus alba, Glycyrrhiza uralensis (licorice), and Angelica gigas) on skin wrinkles in adult women with facial wrinkles. Methods : A total of 12 women, 30 to 46 years of age, with wrinkles in the corner of eyes, applied ampule containing herbal extract twice daily for up to 12 weeks. Silicon replicas of right crow's feet area and antecubital fossa were taken before use of test product and at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The replicas were analyzed by optical profilometry with Skin Visiometer SV600. The wrinkle and roughness parameters, R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 were calculated and statistically analyzed. In addition, a subjective evaluation of product efficacy was conducted by patient's assessment. Results : The mean values of all the skin roughness parameters were decreased at 4-week, and decreased significantly at 8 and 12-week except R4 at 12-week after test product use. The subjective evaluation of wrinkle by patient's assessment was also improved. However, one patient noted stiffness of face after use of test product. Conclusions : These study suggested that the application of ampule containing herbal extract twice daily for 12 weeks may effectively improve the facial wrinkles without severe side effect.
