This study was carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of fabric E-glass fiber reinforced laminated timber. Specimens used to Korean red pine(Pinus densiflora) and Japanese larch(Larix kaemferi). Fabric E-glass fiber was inserted in the solid wood with aqueous polymer-isocyanate resin(MPU-500). The results were as follows: 1. Aqueous polymer-isocyanate resin(MPU-500) was good resin to manufacture laminated timber. specially, it was satisfied to property standard of construction laminated timber(KS F 3021) except for two ply glass fiber. 2. Bending and shear strengths of solid wood inserted with fabric glass fibers were not different from control solid wood. But, proportional limit bending stress was increased following the number of fabric glass fibers. Therefore, it was considered that to improve the bending and shear strength of fabric glass fiber reinforced laminated timber, the glass fiber thickness and its mesh should be modified to fitness following working conditions.

The fuel assembly for pressurized water reactor (PWR) consists of fuel rod bundle, spacer grid and bottom/top end fittings. The cooling water in high pressure and temperature is introduced in lower plenum of reactor core and directed to upper plenum through the subchannel which is formed between the fuel rods. The main thermal-hydraulic performance parameters for the PWR fuel are pressure drop and critical heat flux in normal operating condition, and quenching time in accident condition. The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been developing an advanced PWR fuel, dual-cooled annular fuel and accident tolerant fuel for the enhancement of fuel performance and the localization. For the key thermal-hydraulic technology development of PWR fuel, the KAERI LWR fuel team has conducted the experiments for pressure drop, turbulent flow mixing and heat transfer, critical heat flux(CHF) and quenching. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was also performed to predict flow and heat transfer in fuel assembly including the spent fuel assembly in dry cask for interim repository. In addition, the research cooperation with university and nuclear fuel company was also carried out to develop a basic thermal-hydraulic technology and the commercialization.

우리나라에서는 수입 개방화 추세에 따라 공정한 유통질서 확립하고 국내 생산자와 소비자를 보호하기 위하여 원산지 표시제가 시행되고 있다. 그러나 수입 농산물과 국산 농산물의 큰 가격차이로 인하여 원산지를 허위 표시하는 경우가 증가하고 있다. 특히 쌀 관세화 전환 의무에 따른 수입산 쌀 증가하고 있으며 단립종과 중립종 수입산 쌀은 국내산 쌀과 외관이 유사하여 육안식별이 어려워 국내산 쌀로 둔갑할 우려가 있다. 이에 신속하고 비파괴적으로 쌀의 원산지를 판별할 수 있는 기술 개발이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내산 쌀과 중국산 쌀의 원산지를 신속하게 판별가능한 영상 처리기술을 개발하였다. 쌀은 국내에서 생산된 중립종 50점과 중국에서 생산된 단립종 및 중립종 51점이 수집되어 사용되었다. 쌀의 분광 영상은 초분광 가시광 및 근적외선 영상 시스템을 이용하여 측정하였다. 이 시스템은 할로겐-텅스텐 라인광, 시료 이송부, 초분광 영상 획득부로 구성되어 있다. 텅스텐-할로겐 라인광은 $15^{\circ}$ 각도로 대칭으로 시료에 조사되고 400 ~ 1000 nm 파장 영역의 반사광 영상 스펙트럼이 측정되었다. 초분광 영상 데이터는 광에 노출되지 않은 암실에서의 파장별 영상과 반사율이 99% 이상인 기준판의 파장별 영상을 이용하여 교정되었다. 부분최소제곱회귀법을 이용하여 쌀 원산지 판별모델 식을 개발하였고, 이 판별 모델식을 교정된 초분광 영상에 적용하여 영상처리 판별 모델을 개발하였다. 그 결과, 원산지 판별정확도가 97.4% 이상으로 나타났으며, 국내산과 중국산 쌀의 원산지 판별이 가능하였다.

Friction welding is a fusion process in which the necessary heat is generated by clamping one of the two pieces to be welded in a stationary chuck and rotating the other at high speed with an axially applied load. It is essentially a variation of the pressure welding process but utilizes a novel heating method. In addition to the foregoing advantages, it has also been reported excellent for welding dissimilar materials. Therefore, this study reported on investigating the strength behavior for the frictionally welded domestic structural steel SM45C and SUS304. The results obtained by the experiments are as follows. (1) The highest tensile strength of the best friction welded specimen (B4) is about 3% lower than that of SM-45C base metal, and 9% lower than that of SUS304 base metal. The heat treated specimens (850.deg.C 1hr A.C) have almost same value of tensile strength. (2) The strain of SM45C base metal is 27.3% and that of SUS304 is 42%, that of the best friction welded specimen (B4) appeared as 11.9% which is about 50% lower than the base metal, so, this same phenomenon apeared in all the other welding conditions. (3) The bending strength of SM45C base metal is 123kgf/mm$^{2}$ and that of SUS304 is 127kgf/mm$^{2}$. The best specimen (B4) appeared as 121kgf/mm$^{2}$ which is almost same bending strength for both base metals. (4) The friction welded condition involving maximum strength is determined by P$_{1}$=8kgf/mm$_{2}$, P$_{2}$=22kgf/mm$_{2}$, T$_{1}$=10sec, T$_{2}$=2sec, and amount of upset 7.6mm. (5) The interface of two dissimilar materials are mixed strongly, and welded zone is about 1.03mm and also the heat affected zone is about 2.36mm at SM45C while about 1.85mm at SUS304, therefore the welded zone and heat affected zone are very narrow to compare with those of the other welding materials.

PA66/EPDM/PP-g-MA and PA66/EPDM-g-MA/PP-g-MA composites were manufactured by a modular intermeshing twin screw extruder for enhanced low temperature impact resistance with different content of PP-g-MA. The results showed that composite containing 90 wt% of PA66, 8 wt% of EPDM-g-MA, and 2 wt% of PP-g-MA has a optimum value in the thermal and mechanical properties. The characteristics of the composites were analyzed by TGA, DSC, and SEM. From above results, we established that the low interfacial strength and the impact resistance at low temperature shown in a pre-existing PP/EPDM composite were enhanced by grafting with compatibilizer such as maleic anhydride. These results show the possibility of local manufacturing process and cost down with optimum screw configuration for best mixing quality in the twin screw extruder.

Korea Utility Helicopter(KUH) is a project to replace the aging helicopter presently being operated by the military with a domestic helicopter. The auxiliary power unit is a device that supplies emergency power to the system by an alternator installed when the main generator fails and the start motor converts the electrical energy of the battery into mechanical rotational energy to rotate the auxiliary power unit engine. With continuing power and operation, defects of the starting motor were found and improvements were carried out to solve it. In the failure mode analysis, the causes of possible defects were classified into 5 categories. Analysis of the 5 factors revealed that the main cause of defects is mechanical wear, which was found to be related to spring pressure. 250 tests were conducted through the theoretically determined pressure and regression analysis was performed with 4 sampling.The results showed that pressure was related to wear rate. In conclusion, early wear and breakage due to wear can be controlled through spring force and test showed the prediction of wear and the validity of the result were confirmed.

In this study, a vacuum tumbler with 4 impellers (DVT) was designed and applied for thawing frozen pork (vacuum -60 kPa, jacket 35℃, 1 rpm). Quality characteristics of the thawed pork were compared with those of industrially thawed meat by natural air at room temperature (NAT) and imported vacuum tumbler (IVT). The thawing time for frozen pork (303.36 kg) using DVT (165 min) was much shorter than that of NAT (4,200 min). DVT-thawed pork had lower drip loss (0.85%) than NAT (2.08%). DVT-thawed pork showed a pH of 5.92, a total bacterial count of 1.96±0.02 log CFU/g and no coliforms. Deteriorations in fat (TBARS 0.31±0.01 MDA mg/kg) and protein (VBN 5.67±1.98 mg%) in DVT-thawed pork were significantly lower than those of NAT (p<0.05). DVT-thawed pork had a high water-holding capacity (WHC, 97.5%). The hardness (34.59±0.46 N) and chewiness (188.21±0.17) of cooked DVT-thawed pork were about 5-6 times lower than those of NTA. Microstructure (SEM) showed myofibrillar damage in NAT-thawed pork, whereas dense myofibrillar structure was observed in DVT-thawed pork. DVT was better or similar to IVT in all evaluation parameters. The designed DVT is expected to be used as an efficient thawing method in terms of processing time and yield and to produce thawed meat with high WHC, soft texture, and low spoilage by minimizing tissue damage.

Recently, due to the saturation of ground structures and the overpopulation of pipeline facilities requires to development of underground structures as an alternative to ground structures. Thus, mechanized tunnel construction of the shield TBM method has been increasing in order to prevent vibration and noise problems in construction of the NATM tunnel for the urban infrastructure construction. Tunnel construction plan for the tunnel line should be formed in a sharp curve to avoid building foundation and underground structures and it is inevitable to develop a shield TBM technology that suits the sharp curve tunnel construction. Therefore, this study is about the structural stability technology of the articulation jack, shield jack and skin plate for the shield TBM thrust in case of the mechanized tunnel construction that is a straight and sharp curve line. The construction case study and shield TBM operation principle are examined and analyzed by the theoretical approach. The torque of the cutter head, the thrust of the articulation jack and the shield jack, the amount of over cutting for curve is important respectively in shield TBM construction of straight and sharp curve line. In addition, it is very important to secure the stability of the skin plate structure to ensure the safety of the inside worker. This study examines the general structure and construction of the equipment, experimental simulation was carried out through numerical analysis to examine the main factors and structural stability of the skin plate structure. The structural stability of the skin plate was evaluated and optimizes the shape by comparing the loads of the articulation jack by selecting the virtual soil to be applied in a straight and sharp curve line construction. Since the present structure and operation method of the shield TBM type in domestic constructions are very similar, this study will help to develop the localized shield TBM technology for the new equipment and the vulnerability and stability review.

Members used for the Korean traditional joints have been processed by handicraft, especially with domestic red pine species. Dovetail joint is most commonly used in woodworking joinery and traditional horizontal and vertical connections. It is able to be processed much easier to cut by handicraft and machines. However, although it is processed straight forwards, it requires a high degree of accuracy to ensure a snug fit. Also, tenons and mortises must fit together with no gap between them so that the joint interlocks tightly. A few scientific studies on the dovetail joints have been conducted so far. For the effective applications of traditional joints and domestic plantation wood species, dovetail joints were assembled by larch glulam members processed by machine pre-cut. To identify the tensile properties of through dovetail joints, larch glulam with 150 150mm in cross section were prepared. Furthermore, various geometric parameters of dovetai joints such as width, length, and tenon angle, were surveyed. The ends in the mortise was cracked mainly at a low strength level in the control specimens without reinforcements. The maximum tensile strengths of reinforced specimens considering real connections such as capital joint and headpiece on a column, increasedby handicraft, especially with domestic red pine species.

The ends in the mortise was cracked mainly at a low strength level in the control specimens without reinforcements. The maximum tensile strengths of reinforced specimens considering real connections such as capital joint and headpiece on a column, increased by two times with shear failures on the tenon than the control specimens. The maximum tensile strength was obtained in the specimen of 25 degrees, and no difference was observed in the changes of neck widths.
