  • While some observations in the geomagnetic tail region supported electrons could be accelerated by reconnection processes, we still need more observation data to confirm electron acceleration in this region. Because most acceleration processes accompany strong pitch angle diffusion, if the electrons were accelerated in this region, strong energetic electron precipitation should be observed near earth on aurora oval. Even though there are several low altitude satellites observing electron precipitation, intense and small scale precipitation events have not been identified successfully. In this presentation, we will show an observation of strong energetic electron precipitation that might be analyzed by relativistic electron acceleration in the confined region. This event was observed by low altitude Korean STSAT-1, where intense several hundred keV electron precipitation was seen simultaneously with 10 keV electrons during storm time. In addition, we observed large magnetic field fluctuations and an ionospheric plasma depletion with FUV aurora emissions. Our observation implies relativistic electrons can be generated in the small area where Fermi acceleration might work.

  • Solar Proton Events (SPEs) are the energetic phenomena related particle acceleration occurred in solar corona. Conventionally, they have been classified into two groups as the impulsive and gradual cases caused by reconnection in the flaring site and by shock generated by CME, respectively. In the previous studies, we classified these into four groups by analyzing the proton acceleration patterns in multi-energy channel observation. This showed that acceleration due to the magnetic reconnection may occur in the corona region relatively higher than the flaring site. In this study, we analyzes 54 SPEs observed in the energy band over 25 MeV from 2009 to 2013, where STEREO observations as well as SOHO can be utilized. From the multi-positional observation, we determine the exact time at which the Sun-Earth magnetic field line meets the CME shock structure by considering 3-dimensional structure of CME. Also, we determine the path length by considering the solar wind velocity for each event, so that the SPE onset time near the sun is obtained more accurately. Based on this study, we can get a more understanding of the correlation between CME progression and proton acceleration in the solar coronal region.

  • In this study, an effective estimation method of wheel acceleration is presented. The wheel acceleration is mainly used in the ABS(anti-lick brake system) and the TCS(traction control system). The wheel acceleration is a derivative term of the wheel speed which is generally measured by the wheel speed sensors. The results of a simple differentiation of the signal and an observation of the signal by Kalman filter show that Kalman filter has better performance than the simple differentiation. The differentiated sine signal which is contaminated with random noise shows a rugged signal compared with the signal which is filtered by the Kalman filter. The covariance of the differentiated signal is higher than that of the Kalman-filtered signal, too. The presented Kalman filter technique shows an effective way of solution to get the estimated wheel acceleration value which is sufficient to be applied to ABS or TCS control algorithms.

  • 파랑 관측 자료는 인간이 바다에서 활동을 하는데 있어 아주 중요한 정보임에도 불구하고, 국내에서는 파랑 관측 장비에 대한 기술 개발이나 연구가 부족한 형편이다. 본 연구는 Single GPS를 이용한 파고 관측 자료의 정확한 품질을 평가하기 위해 장기간 비교 관측을 실시하였다. 가속도센서(Hippy-40)와 GPS센서(Mose-1000)의 비교 관측 결과, 유의파고의 상관계수는 0.997이며, 유의파 주기의 상관계수도 0.990으로 거의 일치하고 있다. 또한 BIAS에서도 유의파고는 0.014 m, 유의파주기는 -0.212초로 거의 차이가 없는 것으로 평가되었다. 이러한 결과는 GPS를 이용한 파고 관측 자료의 품질이 아주 우수한 것으로 평가되는 것이다.

  • 본 논문에서는 지진발생 후 임의 위치에서 발생된 지진가속도 시간이력을 추정하기 위하여 기상청 지진관측소 계측자료를 활용하는 방법을 제안하였으며, 국내에서 발생한 지진기록을 이용하여 제안한 응답스펙트럼 및 시간이력 추정 방법의 적용성을 평가하였다. 임의 관측소에서 계측된 결과를 인근 관측소 자료를 이용하여 추정하는 방법으로 제안방법을 검증한 결과, 지반정보 없이도 해당 관측소 위치의 지진가속도 응답스펙트럼 및 시간이력을 낮은 수준의 오차로 추정할 수 있었으며, 특히 시간이력의 경우 형상 및 위상의 변화에 큰 차이가 없음을 확인할 수 있는 등 제안된 방법이 임의 위치에서의 지진가속도 시간이력을 추정하는데 유효함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • The capsizing and consequent sinking of a coastal car ferry was recently reported, with numerous human casualties. The primary cause was determined to be a sudden turn with improperly stowed and secured cargo. Part I of this study introduces how long term acceleration components are determined from seakeeping analyses. A carferry with a displacement of 1,633 tonf was selected as the target vessel. Sea data that included the significant wave heights and periods were collected at four observation buoys, some of which were far away from two main voyage routes: Incheon-Jeju and Pusan-Jeju. Frequency response analyses were performed to obtain the linearized radiation force coefficients, hydrostatic stiffnesses, and wave excitation forces. Time response analyses were sequentially performed to produce the motion-induced acceleration processes. The probabilistic distributions of the acceleration components were determined using a peak and valley counting method. Long term extreme acceleration components were proposed as a final result.

  • Although most of observed properties of giant radio relics detected in the outskirts of galaxy clusters could be explained by relativistic electrons accelerated at merger-driven shocks, a few significant puzzles remain. In some relics the shock Mach number inferred from X-ray observations is smaller than that estimated from radio spectral index. Such a discrepancy could be understood, if either the shock Mach number is nder-estimated in X-ray observation due to projection effects, or if pre-existing electrons with a flat spectrum are re-accelerated by a weak shock, retaining the flat spectral form. In this study, we explore these two scenarios by comparing the results of shock acceleration simulations with observed features of the so-called Toothbrush relic in the merging cluster 1RXS J060303.3. We find that both models could reproduce reasonably well the observed radio flux and spectral index profiles and the integrated radio spectrum. Either way, the broad transverse relic profile requires additional post shock electron acceleration by downstream turbulence.

  • On a liquid propellant PPT, the discharge processes that discharge was initiated and plasma was accelerated was observed by using a ultra high speed camera. Liquid propellant PPT is a pulsed plasma thruster using liquid as propellant. Our past study showed the successful operation of liquid propellant PPT and the thruster showed high specific impulse. However, its acceleration mechanism has not been clarified. In this study we observed the plasma acceleration processes in order to deepen our understanding of the acceleration mechanism.

  • 가속도 변화에 따른 뇌의 미만성 부상을 해석하기 위하여 성인 및 2세, 6세아의 머리 부분에 대한 유한 요소 모델을 개발하였다. 외력은 최대값이 200g인 삼각형 형태의 가속도를 가하였으며, 가속도의 방향, 지속시간에 따른 변화를 해석하였다. 가속도 변화에 따라 발생되는 뇌내의 전단력 분포는 뇌간, 뇌교 및 중뇌등 신경조직이 밀집된 곳에서 크게 발생되어 이곳에서 미만형 부상이 발생할 확률이 높음을 알 수 있었으며, 특히 6세아 모델의 경우 뇌간에서의 최대 전단력이 굴전 형태의 회전가속도 받았을 때 가장 크게 나타나는 결과를 보여 개발된 모델이 임상결과와 일치함을 보여주고 있었다. 가속도 지속 시간이 길어짐에 따라 뇌내에 발생되는 압력 및 최대 전단력의 크기가 증대되고 있었으며, 유아모델의 경우 성인모델에 비하여 가속도 방향과 관계없이 낮은 압력이 발생하였지만 발생압력이 감소하지 않고 지속되는 현상을 보이고 있었다. 그리고 각 가속도에 의한 미만성 부상을 예방하기 위한 안전지수로는 현재 탑승자의 안전 설계에 활용되고 있는 HIC보다는 최대 전단응력이 더 적절한 부상 예측인자임을 알 수 있었다.

  • Several pyrotechnic devices are employed over the course of satellite's missions, generally for the separation of structural subsystems and deployment of appendages. Firing of pyrotechnic devices results in impulsive loads characterized by high peak acceleration and high frequency content which can cause failures of various flight hardware elements and small components. Thus, accurate prediction of acceleration level in various components of spacecraft due to pyrotechnic devices is important. In this paper, two methods for pyroshock prediction, an empirical model and statistical energy analysis in conjunction with virtual mode synthesis, are applied to predict shock response of a low altitude earth observation satellite during launch vehicle separation. The predicted results are then evaluated through comparison with the shock test results.
