Recently, ammunition malfunctions of the 40mm grenade were reported during live fire training. When 72 40mm grenades were fired by the army, 11 duds were encountered. The dud ammunition rate was approximately 15%. Because ammunition is used a long time after its manufacture, it is necessary to ensure its performance after long-term storage. In this study, we attempted to decrease the dud ammunition rate of 40mm grenade (K200) fuzes through quality improvement. First, it was determined by the detonator performance test that abnormal explosions occurred due to the degradation of the detonator as a result of its aging characteristics. Second, we improved the fuze quality of the 40mm grenade. Third, we tested its shelf life to estimate its life expectancy. The shelf life of the 40mm grenade fuze obtained using the Arrhenius equation was 6.5 years for the existing grenade fuze and 45.5 years for the improved grenade fuze. This showed that the shelf life of the improved grenade was increased approximately 7 times. Therefore, the improved 40mm grenade fuze contributes to the quality improvement of the 40mm grenade by decreasing the dud ammunition rate during long term storage.

In bridge performance assessments, a new load carrying capacity evaluation model of simple bridges was proposed, which is based on the developed simple support impact factor spectrum. In this paper, a conservative assumption that the inner span with the both ends fixed boundary condition is ideal for applying the impact factor response spectrum for continuous bridges. The impact factor response spectrum has been proposed based on this assumption. The response spectrum by comparing the numerical analysis result and actual measurement data verified the applicability. The analysis was loading the moving load of DB-24 in a six-span continuous bridge, which was the same as the actual measurement data, the dynamic response was measured in the fourth span. The frequency of the bridge was obtained by FFT on the acceleration response and the span-frequency of sample bridge was calculated by the frequency. The impact factor of the sample bridge was determined by applying the span-frequency of the bridge to the proposed response spectrum; it was similar to the result of comparing the actual measured impact factor. Therefore, the method using the impact factor response spectrum based on the frequency response of both ends-fixed beam was found to be applicable to an actual continuous bridge.

A semi-greenhouse experiment with field grown soybean (Glycine max L. cv Deawon, Uram, Jinpong, Soyon, Pungsangnamul, and Haewon) was performed in 2018. The experiment was aimed to investigate individual impacts of drought stress on soybean characteristic and seed yield. The three treatments were used in non-water stress (Control) during the soybean growth season, vegetative stage stress (VS), and flowering period stress (FS). Leaf number, LAI, leaf nitrogen concentration, and leaf biomass were decreased by drought at R4. In our study, the number of pods was 33.6% and 40.5% lower, respectively, in control than in VS and FS. In 100 seed weight, was 16.1% and 10.1% lower, respectively, in control than in VS and FS at R8. As a result, seed yield was 39.8% and 45.1% lower, respectively, in control than in VS and FS. Depending on the drought period, Daewon and Haewon showed a large decrease in yield, while Soyon did not change. The results of this study showed that flower and beginning pod setting stage responded more sensitively to the drought period than vegetative stage. Overall, these results demonstrate soybean seed yield formation more sensitive the during the flowing and beginning pod setting stage. We conclude that adequate water supply for pod setting stage, guaranteeing a high seed yield.

Several kinds of low voltage cables have been used in nuclear power plants for the supply of electric power, supervision, and the propagation of control signals. These low voltage tables must be inspected for safe and stable operation of nuclear power plants. In particular, the degradation diagnosis to estimate the integrity of low voltage rabies has recently been emphasized according to the long use of nuclear power plants. In order to evaluate their degradation, the surrounding temperature, hardness of insulation material, elongation at breaking point (EAB), etc. have been used. However, the measurement of temperature or hardness is not useful because of the absence of quantitative criteria; the inspection of a sample requires turning off of the power plant power; and, the electrical inspection method is not sufficiently sensitive from the initial through the middle stage of degradation. In this research, based on the theory that the ultrasonic velocity changes with relation to the degradation of the material, we measured the ultrasonic velocity as low voltage cables were degraded. To this end, an ultrasonic degradation diagnosis device was developed and used to measure the ultrasonic velocity with the clothing on the cable, and it was confirmed that the ultrasonic velocity changes according to the degradation of low voltage cables. The low voltage cables used in nuclear power plants were degraded at an accelerated rate, and EAB was measured in a tensile test conducted after the measurement of ultrasonic velocity. With the increasing degradation degree, the ultrasonic velocity decreased, whose potential as a useful parameter for the quantitative degradation evaluation was thus confirmed.

The most important part of conservation treatment of murals is to preserve them against the risk of a damage by injecting fixative into them when the painting loses its cohesion or powderization of pigments occurred due to occurrence of cracks inside the painting layer. However, studies on the stability of fixative used for painting layers of murals are still insufficient. This study manufactured a mural as a specimen and colored it with four kinds of pigments including oyster shell white, cinnabar, malachite and red clay and applied four kinds of fixative, including, Paraloid $B-72^{(R)}$, Caparol-$binder^{(R)}$, glue and Hydoxypropyl $cellulose^{(R)}$. artificially generated environmental changes in temperature, humidity and ultraviolet rays which may occur after the completion of conservation treatment. Then the changes in physical properties were observed in multifaceted ways such as color stability, contact angle, brilliance, adhesive strength and surface. As a result, this study found that ultraviolet rays and hot?humid environment have a large impact on color stability causing changes in brightness and chroma of all painting layers where the fixative were applied, except for oyster shell white and are considered the main factors of decomposition by accelerating the aging process of fixatives applied. In comparison to the synthetic resins that were also tested in this study, the traditional glue showed satisfactory results in terms of color stability and influence preservation and the hydrophile property. As it showed exceptionally outstanding adhesive strength in all painting layers in the aspect of adhesive strength, it is considered to be highly stabile for the fixation treatment of painting layers of mural.

강재의 방식법 중 도장은 부식을 억제하는데 효과적이고 편리한 방법으로 선박 및 해양 강 구조물의 방식법으로 사용되고 있다. 한편, 강 구조물의 효율적인 유지관리를 위해서는 방식 도장의 도막 열화도를 평가하고 잔존 수명을 예측하여 최적 시기에 보수도장 혹은 재도장하는 것이 필요하다. 일반적으로 선박 및 해양구조물에 적용되는 도막의 방식 성능 평가 방법으로 해수 침지 시험, 염수 분무 시험, 옥외 폭로 시험 등이 있다. 그러나 이러한 시험들은 그 시험 방법에 따라서 정량적인 평가에 한계가 있음은 물론 장기간 소요되는 등 곤란한 문제점이 있다. 그러므로 선박 및 해양구조물을 비롯하여 교량, 각종 강 구조물의 도장 방식에 사용되는 방식용 도료의 성능을 단기간에 적절하게 평가할 수 있는 가속시험법이 제시되며 연구-사용되고 있다. 그 중 도막 방식 성능을 보다 효율적, 비파괴적, 정량적으로 평가할 수 있는 임피던스 분광법(EIS)과 같은 전기화학적 방법은 상대적으로 시험 기간을 크게 단축시킬 수 있고, 대상 방식 도장의 미세한 성능 차이도 분별 가능하다는 장점이 있다[1]. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선박 및 해양구조물 등 가혹한 부식환경에서 강력한 내구성을 가질 수 있도록 다양한 종류의 표면처리 도장 시편을 제작하여 자외선 조사-염수분무-침지환경 등의 열악한 환경조건 하에서 부식-열화 촉진 시험을 실시하였다. 그리고 그 촉진 열화 과정에서 도막의 외관 상태를 관찰 분석함은 물론 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법을 병행 측정하며 그 표면막의 부식 및 도막 열화도를 비교-종합 평가하였다.본 연구에 사용된 시편은 Al 및 Zn 도금 강판에 에폭시, 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄, 에폭시-우레탄 도장 시편으로 Scribe, No Scribe 및 비교재 Al 및 Zn 도금 시편으로 분류하여 각각 실험을 진행하였다. 즉, 도막 열화 시험은 복합 노화 시험법으로 UV 조사 36 시간(ASTM G53), 염수분무 32 시간(ISO 7253), 수분 응축 10 시간을 1 Cycle로 100 Cycle(7800 시간) 동안 실험을 진행하였다. 이때 도막 열화도 평가는 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법을 이용하여 각 실험 조건별로 주파수에 따른 임피던스(Z) 값을 평가하였다. 즉, 상온 $25^{\circ}C$의 3.5% NaCl 100 ml 수용액에 작동 전극(Working Electrode)과 구리 도선을 통해 연결하였고, 노출 면적은 $1cm^2$로 일정하게 유지 하였으며, 상대 전극(Counter Electrode)은 탄소봉, 기준 전극(Reference Electrode)으로 포화카로멜전극(Saturated Calomel Electrode)을 사용하여 측정하였다. No Scribe 시편의 경우에는 Al 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편이 우수한 도막 저항성을 나타내었으며, 에폭시-우레탄 도장시편은 23사이클 이후의 저항값이 가장 낮게 나타났다. Zn 기판의 경우는 에폭시, 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄, 에폭시-우레탄 도장 시편 모두 저항 값이 유사하였으며, Al 및 Zn 도금 시편은 도장 처리된 시편에 비해 훨씬 낮은 저항 값을 보였다. 또한 Scribe 시편의 경우에는 Al 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편에서 높은 초기 저항 값을 보였으며, 23 사이클 후의 저항 값은 세 종류의 도막에서 약 1~0.1 Gohm 으로 나타났다. 그리고 Zn 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편에서 가장 낮은 도막 저항 값이 나타났다. 이상의 실험을 통해서 본 연구 내용은 실내촉진시험으로 선박 및 해양 강 구조물에 사용되는 다양한 종류의 도막의 열화도를 평가하는 기초 설계 지침으로 응용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 한편, 도막은 노출 환경에 따라 방식 성능이 다르므로 실제 도막의 사용환경을 고려하여 도장 사양별 적용 부위에 따른 적정 가속 실험 방법을 선정할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

Recently, the pace of global climate change has tremendously increased, causing extreme damage to crop production. Here, we aimed to examine the growth characteristics and useful components of Angelica gigas under extreme heat stress, providing fundamental data for its efficient cultivation. Plants were exposed to various experimental temperatures (28℃, 34℃, and 40℃), and their growth characteristics and content of useful components were analyzed. At the experimental site, the ambient and soil temperature were 19.38℃ and 21.34℃, ambient and soil humidity were 81.3 % and 0.18 m³/m³, solar radiation was 162.05 W/m². Moreover, the soil was sandy-clay-loam (pH 6.65), with 2.66% organic matter, 868.52 mg/kg soil available phosphate, and 0.14% nitrogen. Values of most growth characteristics, including the survival rate (85%), plant height (38.66cm), and fresh and dry weight (41.3 g and 14.24 g), were the highest at 28℃. Although the highest content of useful components was observed at 34℃ (3.24%), there were no significant differences across temperatures. Growth characteristics varied across temperatures due to detrimental effects of heat stress, such as accelerated tissue aging, reduced photosynthesis, and delay of growth. Similar content of useful components across temperatures may be due to poor accumulation of anabolic products caused by impaired growth at extremely high temperatures.

Purpose: Since the coronavirus pandemic, the number of obese people has increased, and accelerated aging has been reported, particularly among young population. Therefore, this study analyzed the dietary habits of university students according to their risk of obesity to provide data for improving their eating habits. Methods: Ninety students at Daegu Catholic University were surveyed for their eating habits and photo-enhanced meal intake. The obesity risk was categorized as normal if the body mass index (BMI) and percent body fat (PBF) were normal, at-risk if both indicated overweight or obese, obesity in BMI alone were analyzed as BMI group and those with obesity in percent body fat alone were analyzed as PBF group. Results: There were 23 (25.5%) in the normal group, 10 (11.1%) in the BMI group, 24 (26.7%) in the PBF group and 33 (36.7%) in the at-risk group. The dietary survey showed that the risk groups had lower consumption frequencies of vegetables (p < 0.05) than the normal group, had less sleep time (p < 0.05) and higher frequency of fast food consumption (p < 0.001). The intake of vegetables was significantly higher in the normal group than in the risk group (p < 0.05). In terms of the daily nutrient intake, there was no significant difference in energy intake according to the obesity risk, but the intakes of dietary fiber (p < 0.01), vitamin A (p < 0.01), vitamin C (p < 0.01) were higher in the normal group than in the risk groups. Conclusion: Therefore, it is important to consider the BMI and percent body fat together to diagnose obesity and provide nutrition education and counseling.
