Ratcheting is the cyclic buildup of inelastic strain on a structure resulting from a combination of primary and secondary cyclic stress. It can lead to excessive plastic deformation, incremental collapse, or fatigue. Ratcheting has been numerically investigated on a cantilever beam, considering the current study's primary and secondary bending loads. In addition, the effect of input frequency on the onset of ratcheting has been investigated. The non-linear dynamic elastic-plastic approach has been utilized. Analogous to Yamashita's bending-bending ratchet diagram, a non-dimensional ratchet diagram with a frequency effect is proposed. The result presents that the secondary stress values fall sequentially with the increase of primary stress values. Moreover, a displacement amplification factor graph is also established to explain the effect of frequency on ratchet occurrence conditions. In terms of frequency effect, it has been observed that the lower frequency (0.25 times the natural frequency) was more detrimental for ratchet occurrence conditions than the higher frequency (2 times the natural frequency) due to the effect of dynamic displacement. Finally, the effect of material modeling of ratcheting behavior on a beam is shown using different hardening coefficients of kinematic hardening material modeling.

A four-point bending RC beam strengthened with FRP plate is investigated based on the theory of elasticity. Taking the adhesive layer into account but ignoring some secondary parameters, the analytical solutions of the normal stress and shear stress on concrete-adhesive interface are obtained and discussed. Besides, the pure bending region of the beam is analyzed and the ultimate load of the beam is predicted. The results obtained in the present paper agree very well with both the results of FEM and the experimental findings.

The objective of this article is finding optimized locations of active mounts applied to 6-DOF beam structure with two active paths. When sinusoidal excitation forces are applied to the beam structure, secondary forces from two active mounts which can minimize (ideally becoming zero) transmitted forces are calculated mathematically and the vibration attenuation performance is validated through computer simulations. When the force applied to two active mounts are relatively low, those specific locations are considered as optimized location of active mounting system. As the location of mount changes, amplitude and phase of secondary forces in each path are analyzed with 3D plots. Based on the simulation results, a criterion for selecting mounting location is suggested and it would be very useful for selecting actuators for active mounts appropriately.

Purpose: Proton therapy has been used for optimal cancer treatment by adapting its Bragg-peak characteristics. Recently, a tissue-sparing effect was introduced in ultrahigh-dose-rate (FLASH) radiation; the high-energy transmission proton beam is considered in proton FLASH therapy. In measuring high-energy/ultrahigh-dose-rate proton beam, Faraday Cup is considered as a dose-rate-independent measurement device, which has been widely studied. In this paper, the feasibility of the simply designed Faraday Cup (Poor Man's Faraday Cup, PMFC) for transmission proton FLASH therapy is investigated. Methods: In general, Faraday cups were used in the measurement of charged particles. The simply designed Faraday Cup and Advanced Markus ion chamber were used for high-energy proton beam measurement in this study. Results: The PMFC shows an acceptable performance, including accuracy in general dosimetric tests. The PMFC has a linear response to the dose and dose rate. The proton fluence was decreased with the increase of depth until the depth was near the proton beam range. Regarding secondary particles backscatter from PMFC, the effect was negligible. Conclusions: In this study, we performed an experiment to investigate the feasibility of PMFC for measuring high-energy proton beams. The PMFC can be used as a beam stopper and secondary monitoring system for transmission proton beam FLASH therapy.

In this paper, the performance of a system was analyzed according to the design parameters of a LED secondary lens that can be applied at a very close range, e.g., for direct lighting or display systems. We designed the secondary lens of the very-close-range LED using an aspheric equation and analyzed its performance-particularly the angle of the beam spread, central luminous intensity, and light uniformity-with respect to the thickness of lens, radius, conic constant, and asphericity (4th). Our analysis shows that four parameters affect the performance. The simulation results indicate an optimal thickness of 1 mm and show that a larger radius yields higher performance. The optimal range for the conic constant was determined as -1.21 to -1.25, the optimal range for the asphericity was determined as 0.0047xx to 0.0049xx (4th).

본 논문은 탄탈 박막의 증착시 음의 기판 바이어스에 의한 탄탈 박막내의 불순물 농도변화에 대해서 고찰하였다. 탄탈 박막은 실리콘 기판 위에 이온빔 증착장비를 이용하여 기판 바이어스를 걸지 않은 경우와 -125 V의 기판 바이어스를 건 상태에서 증착하였다. 탄탈 박막내의 불순물 농도를 관찰하기 위해서 이차이온 질량분석기(secondary ion mass spectrometry)를 이용하였다. 세슘 클러스터 이온에 의한 깊이분석에서, -125 V의 기판 바이어스를 걸어줌으로써 산소, 탄소, 그리고 실리콘 불순물의 농도가 기판 바이어스를 걸지 않은 경우에 비해 상당히 감소한 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 세슘 이온빔과 산소 이온빔을 이용한 전체 불순물의 농도분포에서도, 음의 기판 바이어스가 박막 증착시 각각의 불순물 농도에 영향을 준다는 결과를 얻었고 이에 대한 고찰을 하였다.

이 연구의 목적은 NCRP 보고서 151과 IAEA 안전 보고서 시리즈 47 기반으로 직접차폐식 도어의 납 두께 계산식을 유도하는 데 있다. 직접차폐식 도어에서 선량률 계산식을 유도한 후, 이 식을 납 차폐 두께 계산식에 대입하여 도어에서 차폐 두께 계산식을 유도하였다. 유도된 직접차폐식 도어의 차폐 두께 계산식으로부터 계산된 납 차폐 두께는 NCRP 및 IAEA 2차 방벽 차폐 두께 계산 방법으로 산출된 두께보다 약 6% 낮았다. 이 결과는 NCRP 및 IAEA 2차 방벽 차폐 두께 계산 방법으로부터 두께 계산이 더 보수적이고 2차 빔 차폐에 잘 맞는다는 의미로 해석된다. 결론적으로, 이 연구에서 유도된 직접차폐식 도어의 납 차폐 두께 계산식은 도어의 차폐 설계에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose : The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and bitewing images in detection of secondary caries. Materials and Methods : One hundred and twenty proximal slots of Class II cavities were randomly prepared on human premolar and molar teeth, and restored with amalgam (n=60) and composite resin (n=60). Then, artificial secondary caries lesions were randomly created using round steel No. 4 bur. The teeth were radiographed with a conventional bitewing technique and two CBCT systems; Pax-500ECT and Promax 3D. All images were evaluated by five observers. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve ($A_z$) was used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy. Significant difference was tested using the Friedman test (p value<0.05). Results : The mean $A_z$ values for bitewing, Pax-500ECT, and Promax 3D imaging systems were 0.882, 0.995, and 0.978, respectively. Significant differences were found between the two CBCT systems and film (p=0.007). For CBCT systems, the axial plane showed the greatest $A_z$ value. Conclusion : Based on the design of this study, CBCT images were better than bitewing radiographs in detection of secondary caries.

본 논문에서는 직경이 14.5 mm인 대면적 COB-type LED 패키지를 사용하면서도 15도 이내의 좁은 광속각을 구현하기 위해, 광학계 크기를 축소하고 동시에 satellite ring 발생을 억제할 수 있는 이중 반사경 구조를 고안하여 조명광학계용 2차 광학계를 최적 설계하였다. 최적 설계를 위해 광원 크기와 제 1 반사경의 광속각 관계를 이용하였고, satellite ring 발생을 억제하기 위한 제 2 반사경의 최적 위치 및 크기를 고려하였다. 그 결과 대체 상용 제품의 크기 제한을 만족하며 80%의 광속 효율을 달성할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 다양한 전류조건하에 전자선 조사로 가교된 리튬 이차전지용 폴리에틸렌 분리막을 제조하였다. 제조된 폴리에틸렌 분리막의 가교율은 조사량이 증가할수록 그리고 빔 전류가 낮을수록 증가하여 최대 71%까지 증가하였다. 낮은 빔 전류에서 조사된 폴리에틸렌 분리막은 상용 분리막 보다 우수한 열수축률(51%) 및 기계적 특성을 보여주었다. 가교된 분리막의 이온전도도는 $1.01{\times}10^{-3}\;S/cm$와 전해액 함침률(275%)은 조사되지 않은 분리막과 거의 동일하였다.
