In order to evaluate the effects of exposure conditions on the resistance to sulfate attack of normal and blended cement mortars, several mechanical characteristics of the mortars such as expansion, strength and bulk density were regularly monitored for 52 cycles under sodium sulfate attack. The mortar specimens were exposed to 3 different types of exposure conditions; 1) continuous full immersion(Exposure A), continuous half-immersion(Exposure B) and cyclic wetting-drying(Exposure C). Experimental results indicated that the maximum deterioration was noted in OPC mortar specimens subjected to Exposure B, showing the wide cracks in the portions where attacking solution is adjacent to air. Additionally, the beneficial effect of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and silica fume was clearly observed showing a superior resistance against sodium sulfate attack, because of its lower permeability and densified structure. Thus, it is suggested that when concrete made with normal cement is exposed to sulfate environment, proper considerations on the exposure conditions should be taken.

This research aims at suggesting exposure condition that shows maintaining the value of the physical image quality factor by decreasing tube voltage and tube current from the standard exposure condition(80 kV, 7 mA) of a CBCT apparatus. To measure the value of the physical image quality factor, modular transfer function(MTF) was analyzed and dose-area product(DAP) was used for the measurement of exposure dose. CBCT images of a Sedentex IQ phantom were obtained under 15 exposure conditions of different combination of tube voltage(80, 78, 76 kV) and tube current(7, 6, 5, 4, 3 mA) and MTF 10 was calculated under each exposure conditions. There were no significant differences in MTF 10 under 80 kV-6 mA, 80 kV-5 mA exposure conditions in comparison with standard exposure condition. Based on the results of this research, 80 kV-5 mA condition are expected to be able to reduce exposure dose with maintaining the value of the physical image quality factor of the standard exposure condition.

Tensile tests were conducted on the GFRP reinforcement exposed to high temperature. The exposure condition for this study was below $200^{\circ}C$ for about 3 minutes. This conditioning is minor compared with that presented in experimental program conducted by other researchers. The residual tensile strength and elastic modulus of GFRP reinforcing bars at high temperature and after exposure to high temperature were compared. In results, tensile properties were decreased at high temperatures, but those after exposure to high temperature were recovered to pre-heating level almost completely. These results could be valuable for evaluating GFRP reinforced structure damaged by fire accident.

바나듐 3, 4, 5가 이온은 공기 중에서 안정하지만, 바나듐 2가 이온은 쉽게 산화된다. 그러므로 바나듐 2가 이온이 담겨져 있는 음극 탱크가 공기와 접촉하지 않게 하는 것이 중요하다. 충전 중 음극 탱크에 공기가 침투되면, 바나듐 2가 이온은 3가 이온으로 산화되기 때문에 음극과 양극의 전해질에 불균형을 초래한다. 이러한 불균형은 바나듐 레독스 흐름전지 용량저하의 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 공기 중 2가 이온 산화에 의한 전해질의 불균형 현상을 쉽게 보여주기 위해, 공기노출과 차단조건에서 충방전 중에 발생한 음극과 양극의 바나듐 이온 상태변화량을 UV-Visible spectrophotometer를 이용해 정량적으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 공기노출 조건에서 음극의 충전 시, 충방전 cycle이 진행 될수록 바나듐 2가 이온의 양이 현격히 줄어들었지만, 공기차단 조건에서는 2가 이온의 양이 공기노출 조건보다 훨씬 더 적게 줄어들었다. 즉, 공기차단 조건에서는 바나듐 2가 이온이 3가로 산화되지 않아서 음극의 충전 후 바나듐 3가에서 2가로 전환되는 양이 공기노출 조건보다 더 많은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 영향으로 인해, 충방전 10th cycle을 진행해 본 결과, 공기차단 조건에서는 충방전 용량감소가 거의 없었지만 공기노출 조건에서는 현격한 충방전 용량 감소를 보였다.

This study determines a range of CT parameter values in Brain CT which are minimizing patient absorption dose without compromising the image quality and optimal exposure condition. We measured dose and image noise using conventional CT parameters in Brain CT. In additon, we evaluated dose, SNR and PSNR of head phantom images while changing kVp and rotation time. In this study, effectiveness of dose that was achieved from dose reproducible experiments in conventional head CT condition is determined by changing kVp and rotation time. Dose and PSNR is related to low dose-high resolution condition. In conclusion, we suggest that using proposed conditions is effective for imaging to compare with conditions proposed by the manufacturer.

탄소섬유강화플라스틱(CFRP:Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic)용기의 외부에 화재가 발생할 경우 함침된 수지(Resin)가 탄화되면서 자체 강도가 약화되고 충전된 가스가 외부 온도 상승에 따라 압력 상승이 발생하여 용기의 폭발로 이어지는 사고가 발생할 개연성이 높다. 화염 노출조건에서 복합재료 용기의 폭발을 방지하기 위하여 용기용 밸브에 내장된 온도감응식 압력안전장치(TPRD:Thermally activated Pressure Relief Device) 작동 성능을 검증하기 위한 방법으로 화염실험(Bonfire test)를 실시하고 있으나, 개방 공간에서 실시되는 이 실험은 표면 온도 변화가 매우 크게 발생하여 실험에 대한 재현성(Reproducibility)에 의문이 제기되고 있다. 따라서, 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 실험 방법의 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 경유+heptane을 이용한 전체 화염에 노출되는 경우와, 천연가스를 이용한 단일화염에 노출되는 경우의 실험 결과 비교를 통하여 화염 노출 표면 온도를 일정하게 유지하기 위한 가열 방법의 타당성을 검토하였다. 또한, 복합재료 라이너(Liner)의 온도 변화 비교를 통하여 집중화염 노출 조건에서 열전달 특성을 알아보았다.

The purpose of this study is to verify whether it is possible for participants to discriminate between innocent and guilty suspects when they are exposed to criminal information utilizing an autobiographical implicit association test (aIAT). A total of 49 college students were randomly assigned to guilty group, innocent-aware group, or innocent-unaware group. Participants performed an aIAT to detect suspects after performing either mock crime or control task. It was verified that innocent suspect and guilty suspect exposed with crime information could be distinguished through D-score and reaction time, converted to symbolize strength of the association between guilty sentences, innocent sentences, and truth sentences. As a result of the analysis, guilty group showed significantly higher D-score than both innocent-aware group and innocent-unaware group. guilty group also showed faster response time in true-guilty condition than true-innocent condition. This shows that the association of true-guilty conditions is stronger than that of true-innocent conditions. On the other hand, the innocent-aware group showed a faster response time in the true-innocent condition than the true-guilty condition, and innocent-unaware group showed no significant difference between the two conditions. Through this, it was confirmed that innocent suspects exposed to criminal information can be discriminated according to the aIAT pattern, which has a faster reaction rate to the truth and innocence union than the guilty group. This study confirmed that suspects exposed to criminal information can be effectively discriminated using aIAT, and further suggests the usefulness and potential of aIAT in the field of lie detection.

전자파표면유속계는 홍수량 측정을 위해 사용되는 비접촉식 유속계로, 전자파를 발사한 후 수표면에 반사되는 전자파의 도플러 효과를 이용하여 표면유속을 측정하는 기기이다. 국제적으로 1980년대부터 홍수량 측정의 어려움을 극복하기 위해 하천 유량측정 업무에 활용하였다. 전자파표면유속계를 이용하여 정확한 표면유속을 측정하기 위해서는 측정 위치, 방향, 노출시간, 환경 등을 고려해야 한다. 여기서 노출시간은 표면유속 측정을 위해 전자파를 흐름 상태의 수표면에 노출시키는 시간을 의미한다. 특히, 노출시간은 유속에 따라 결정되며, 빠른 유속일수록 측정에 필요한 노출시간이 짧아진다. 그러나 노출시간이 너무 짧으면 측정 유속값이 부정확하거나 불안정해질 수 있으며, 반대로 너무 길면 수위 등 측정조건이 변화하여 측정값이 부정확해질 수 있다. 따라서 홍수량 측정을 위해 전자파표면유속계의 표면유속 측정의 적정한 노출시간을 설정해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 전자파표면유속계의 적정한 노출시간 검토를 위해 안동하천실험센터에서, 표면유속 최대 4.92 m/s에서 최소 0.457 m/s 범위의 19개 유속 조건에서 노출시간을 10초에서 40초까지 5초 간격으로 변화시키며 표면유속을 측정하였다. 현재 국내외 가이드라인에서 권고하고 있는 노출시간 30초에서 측정된 표면유속과 각 노출시간에서 측정된 표면유속의 정확도 검증을 통해 유사한 값을 가지는 표면유속을 검토하여, 수위변화에 대응하여 홍수량 측정을 위한 최소 노출시간을 검토하였다.

In this experimental study, the characteristic of damages on GFRP rebar exposed to high temperature only and immerged in alkaline solution after the exposure to high temperature was analyzed through microscopic image analysis. The found microcrack and pores in resin matrix were quantitatively compared if there was effect of pre-exposure to high temperature. The damages, such as microcrack and pores in resin matrix, by alkali exposure were mainly found in rebar surface. On the other hand, the pores caused by high temperatures were extensively found in a section and had greater width than those caused by the alkali exposure. In results of the quantitative comparison, the accumulated length and widths of microcrack and pores in resin matrix in pre-exposed GFRP rebar to high temperature were respectively 1.5 and 1.4 times of those in the GFRP rebar only immerged in alkali solution. Therefore, the deterioration of resin matrix by the alkali exposure could be accelerated due to the pre-exposure to high temperature.

Since the crack self-healing materials are activated according to the exposure environmental conditions from the time of crack occurrence, it is very important to clarify the relationship between the healing performance and the exposure environmental conditions of the crack surface. In this paper, the influence of the exposure environmental conditions on the crack healing performance of self-healing repair mortar was investigated through the water permeability test. The influence of temperature and humidity on the crack width of cracked specimens was evaluated. As a result of measuring the change of the crack width, the effect of curing temperature was negligible but it was confirmed that crack-closing occurred due to the change of dry-wet condition. The healing materials produced on the crack surface of the specimens was identified as calcite minerals. Since the minerals with high density are precipitated under the influence of gravity, the healing performance is somewhat different according to the direction of the crack surface, and the healing performance was significantly improved in the wet exposure condition than the air exposure condition.
