Shielding for reducing exposure dose can make the diagnosis limited. The purpose of this study is to increase the efficiency of radiation protection and minimize the loss of image information by producing the shielding made of the water and the contrast medium which has different proportion and finding out the ideal proportion of them. Each shielding materials were made of water and water-soluble iodine contrast medium with the different proportion. The attenuation rate of absorbed dose was evaluated by the shielding materials in the plastic contents for measuring the efficiency of the radiation protection. As a result, the higher ratio of the contrast medium, the more efficient it is for radiation attenuation. The anatomical structure was observed most properly in case of the solution with 20 ml of the contrast medium and most difficultly in case of more than 60 ml of the contrast medium. In case of the signal intensity between skeleton and gas, the difference of average value had a significant as p < 0.001. Shielding with contrast medium attenuates less than the conventional shielding but in the examination for the sensitive part to radiation, it can be used to minimize the loss of the image information and reduce the exposure dose.

It has been known that there is not the general design method for water mist system because the fire extinguishing mechanisms are dependent on both spray characteristics and a fire compartment. It is therefore rational that a general performance-evaluation guideline does not exist. The present work suggests the performance-evaluation guideline for water mist system applied to the power transformer room based upon the investigation and analysis of fire accidents and the similar guideline.

Although self-propelled artilleries are mobile equipment, they need their own covered-positions for survival against preemptive strikes. The most important military requirement is enough protective capacity against blast pressure caused by explosion. This paper aims to assess the protective capacity of the newly-placed concrete box-type artillery positions using accurate structural geometric models as well as soil-structure interaction analysis. The commercial program is used to model the structural geometry of the positions. In order to describe the correct wave propagation in the backfill along with soil-structure interaction, used parameters in shock equation of state are selected based on the related studies as well as theories and then their final results are verified with the ones calculated with empirical equations in the US Unified Facility Criteria. In sum, it could be concluded that the protective capacity of the newly-built positions satisfies the protective structural requirement.

Monitoring has been done for the shingle beach in Hagdong Beach in Geojesi, City during the seven month period. The shingle beach has been found to go through the cyclic change according to the tidal schedule. The typhoon Rusa in year 2002 affected whole beach face. Sea wall, constructed to protect the village along the beach, aggravates the situation, since it cut off the supply of shingle from the marine terrace, upon which village was built. Concrete walls along the streams also diminish the supply of shingles from the mountains. To protect the shingle beach and encourage the sustainable eco-tourism long-term monitoring on sediment budget is necessary.

지진해일은 주기가 긴 파랑으로 방파제나 방호구조물에 의한 에너지 감소가 작은 특성이 있다. 또한, 범람구역의 구조물 밀집도 및 지형적 요인에 따라 범람영역, 침수심, 파력 등이 상이하게 나타나므로 유체흐름의 입체적 변화양상을 고려하여야 한다. 본 수리모형실험은 임원항을 대상으로 구조물에 작용하는 지진해일의 파력특성을 3차원수리모형실험을 통해 검토하고, 파력산정계수(${\alpha}$)를 제시한다. 3차원 수리모형실험은 1983년 동해 중부 지진해일 발생 시 국내에서 가장 큰 피해를 입은 임원항을 대상으로 배후부지의 구조물과 인근 해안의 지형을 1/100으로 재현하여 실험에 임하였다. 입사파랑은 고립파(solitary wave)로 재현하였으며, 천수(shoaling)에 의한 파고변화를 측정하고 그에 따른 배후부지의 침수심, 구조물에 작용하는 파력을 측정하였다. 분석된 파력 산정계수(${\alpha}$)는 임원항 인근 해역 및 배후부지의 방재대책 수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

Many atypical structures on the roadside are exposed to traffics unshielded posing great danger. One way to shield an atypical structure to secure the occupant safety is to stack energy absorbing material modules in front of the structure. This paper presents the analysis method of module type crash cushion made of EPS blocks using simple energy balance of the car and crash cushion and numerical examples for 0.9ton-500km/h, 0.9ton-60km/h and 0.9ton-70km/h impact are presented. This method gives simple estimation of maximum acceleration, time of crash, whether or not the vehicle stops completely before whole cushion is being crushed. However, since the acceleration and velocity data from the analysis is so crudely spaced that calculation of safety indices such is RA and OIV is not possible. Problem is overcome by using data interpolation. The spline and linear interpolation is introduce and safety analysis is made and the results are compared.

In recent years, there have been numerous explosion-related accidents due to military and terrorist activities. Such incidents caused not only damages to structures but also human casualties, especially in urban areas. To protect structures and save human lives against explosion accidents, better understanding of the explosion effect on structures is needed. In an explosion, the blast overpressure is applied to concrete structures as an impulsive load of extremely short duration with very high pressure and heat. Generally, concrete is known to have a relatively high blast resistance compared to other construction materials. However, information and test results related to the blast experiment of internal and external have been limited due to military and national security reasons. Therefore, in this paper, to evaluate blast effect on reinforced have concrete structure and its protective performance, blast tests are carried out with $1.0m{\times}1.0m{\times}150mm$ reinforce concrete slab structure at the Agency for Defence Development. The standoff blast distance is 1.5 m and the preliminary tests consists with TNT 9 lbs and TNT 35 lbs and the main tests used ANFO 35 lbs. It is the first ever blast experiment for nonmilitary purposes domestically. In this paper, based on the basic experiment procedure and measurement details for acquiring structural behavior data, the blast experimental measurement system and procedure are established details. The procedure of blast experiments are based on the established measurement system which consists of sensor, signal conditioner, DAQ system, software. It can be used as basic research references for related research areas, which include protective design and effective behavior measurements of structure under blast loading.

The waste ammunitions have been accumulated in excessive amounts these days. This study focused on the problems related to the method of ammunition disposal which leads the explosion inside the enclosure structure and controls the effects of detonation. This study enables us to design a new type of explosive disposal facilities that would fit to our environments. And this study gives us the prototype design of the explosive disposal structure that are explored in this research and will give us a chance to develop a new type structure that have not been devised by Army, and also will be applicable to construct a civilian explosive disposal structure located in airports, harbors, and public facilities.

Additional metal shielding is installed in the water pipes used in septic tanks to protect against damage from electromagnetic pulse (EMP) events. This shielding prevents EMP damage, but impurities present in water cannot pass through the shielding structure. Thus, the original function of the water pipes is lost as the pipes are blocked, and an additional maintenance workforce is needed to manage this blockage. To solve this problem, we propose a water pipe without an additional shielding structure; the proposed pipe was designed with consideration of the attenuation characteristics of water. The immersed depth was varied from 400 mm to 800 mm, while the diameter of the pipe was fixed at 100 mm. The shielding effectiveness increased from 70 dB to 100 dB around 2 GHz. Through the verification process, we propose an effective design guideline that can maintain the function of the water pipe and provide protection from EMP damages without additional shielding structure.
