Turbopump is typically an assembly of rotors and casings, and there are a number of joints between them. Every joint should be leak-proof, so there is always a seal to accomplish the goal. Among various seals, metal seals are advantageous in that they are robust at high pressure, and at wide range of temperature. On the other hand, they require very high tightening forces, so that flanges, bolts and nuts should be carefully designed to ensure structural integrity and to prevent detrimental yielding of components. In this study, flange joints using conical seals made of stainless steel, solid flat metal seals made of copper and metal C-seals made of Inconel 718 were structurally designed and analyzed, considering both initial tightening and operating conditions.

Friction energy dissipative devices have been increasingly implemented as structural seismic damage protecting systems due to their excellent seismic energy dissipating capacity and high stiffness. This study develops rotational friction energy dissipative devices and verifies experimentally their cyclic response. Based on the understanding of the differences between the traditional linear-motion friction behavior and the rotational friction behavior, the configuration of the frictional surface was determined by investigating the characteristics of the micro-friction behavior. The friction surface suggested in this paper consists of brake-lining pads and stainless steel sheets and is normally stressed by high-strength bolts. Based upon these frictional characteristics of the selected interface, the rotational friction energy dissipative devices were developed. Bolt torque-bearing force tests, rotational friction tests of the suggested friction interfaces were carried out to identify their frictional behavior. Test results show that the bearing force is almost linearly proportional to the applied bolt torque and presents stable cyclic response regardless of the experimental parameters selected this testing program. Finally, cyclic tests of the rotational friction energy dissipative devices were performed to find out their structural characteristics and to confirm their stable cyclic response. The developed friction energy dissipative devices present very stable cyclic response and meet the requirements for displacement-dependent energy dissipative devices prescribed in ASCE/SEI 7-10.

Existing composite forming processes such as the autoclave, prepreg compression forming (PCF), RTM, etc. require high production costs because of their long processing time. On the other hand, microwave heating process (MHP) can reduce the production costs since both mold and composite material can be heated directly. The aim of this study is to manufacture a mold consisting of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), quartz glass, stainless steel clamps, and polyether ether ketone (PEEK) bolts for fabricating FML based on self-reinforced polypropylene (SRPP) using the MHP. First, the flame test was carried out prior to the MHP to check the temperature on the mold and whether the spark occurred at the mold and the edge of the FML. Second, the uniaxial tensile test was then conducted to obtain the mechanical properties of the FML manufactured by the MHP. The mechanical properties were compared with those of the FML fabricated by the PCF. As a result, the MHP using the PTFE mold can manufacture the FML more rapidly than the PCF, and obtain acceptable mechanical properties.

조사 선량의 분포를 저해하지 않으면서 정확한 차폐가 가능하며, 짧은 시간 내에 쉽게 환자를 고정할 수 있으며, 치료 중에 환자가 의식을 잃는 경우에도 다치지 않고 지지될 수 있는, 한국인의 체형에 맞는 전신방사선치료를 위한 고정장치를 개발하고 그 효과를 평가하였다. 230 cm의 키, 100 kg의 체중을 가진 성인 환자도 지지될 수 있도록 지름 5 cm의 스텐레스 원형 봉을 사용하여 프레임을 제작하였고, 의자는 환자가 서 있는 상태에서 환자의 키, 몸의 두께에 맞추어 위치 조절이 가능하도록 고안하였다. 가슴부위의 전면 지지대는 1 cm 두께의 아크릴을 사용하여 지지의 기능과 차폐물의 고정 기능을 겸하게 하였고, 등면의 지지대는 1 cm 두께의 아크릴을 5 mm 두께, 3 cm 넓이의 스텐레스 스틸로 테를 둘러 환자의 지지와 엑스선 필름 카세트 고정장치를 겸하도록 고안하였으며 2개의 상부 도르래와 측면의 핸들로 쉽고 정확하게 조절할 수 있도록 하였다. 머리 고정장치는 비닐과 특수 스펀지를 사용하여 쇠약한 환자의 작은 흔들림도 방지할 수 있도록 하였다. 환자를 원하는 위치에 고정하는데 평균 4분 25초가 소요되었고 반복되는 분할조사의 검교정 필름에서 폐의 차폐물의 위치에 차이가 없었으며, 펜텀 실험과 환자치료에서 $\pm$5%의 선량차이를 보였다. 치료중 환자가 의식을 잃은 경우도 수차 있었으나 쓰러지지 않고 지지할 수 있었다.

We have designed a 30 cm cryogenic space infrared telescope for astronomical observation. The telescope is designed to observe in the wavelength range of 0.5~2.1 ${\mu}m$, when it is cooled down to 77 K. The result of the preliminary design of the support structure and support method of the mirror of a 30 cm cryogenic space infrared telescope is shown in this paper. As a Cassegrain prescription, the optical system of a 30 cm cryogenic space infrared telescope has a focal ratio of f/3.1 with a 300 mm primary mirror (M-1) and 113 mm secondary mirror (M-2). The material of the whole structure including mirrors is aluminum alloy (Al6061-T6). Flexures that can withstand random vibration were designed, and it was validated through opto-mechanical analysis that both primary and secondary mirrors, which are assembled in the support structure, meet the requirement of root mean square wavefront error < ${\lambda}/8$ for all gravity direction. Additionally, when the M-1 and flexures are assembled by bolts, the effect of thermal stress occurring from a stainless steel bolt when cooled and bolt torque on the M-1 was analyzed.
