The frost depth is one of important factors in the design of structures such as roadways, buried pipeline, and foundations. A frost indicator with methylene blue solution has several advantages with respect to installation cost, maintenance, and simple measurement. However, as a geotechnical engineering aspect, the accuracy of the frost indicator has not been proved yet. This paper presents experimental and field investigations of the accuracy of the frost indicator and contour maps of maximum frost depth. The contour maps of maximum frost depth can be applied to design geo-infrastructure in South Korea.

It was investigated whether the scrap tire can be recycled as a construction material for controlling the frost heave of the ground. Some frost heave tests and a frost penetration depth test in the laboratory were performed on the weathered granite soil mitred with variable amount of scrap tire powder under the atmospheric temperature at -$17^{\circ}$ to find the basic effects of the scrap tire on the control of frost. The frost heave control layer of the crushed stone mixed with scrap tire chips directly below thin subbass in the bituminous pavement was found to be effective for practical use. And the equation for the required thickness of this frost heave control layer with freezing index was suggested.

The ground in cold region consists of active and permafrost layers. The active layer at the unstable state may cause ground corrosion and uplift, when the temperature of frozen ground increases due to seasonal changes. The thermosyphon is one of the stabilization methods to maintain the ground stability in the frozen ground. The thermosyphon is a closed two-phase convection device that extracts heat from the ground and discharges it into the atmosphere. In this study, ground freezing experiment using a thermosyphon and simulated ground with the isolation material was conducted to evaluate the thermal performance of the thermosyphon. In order to consider the thermal performance of the thermosyphon, commercial numerical program (TEMP/W) was adopted. Likewise, the thermal performance of thermosyphon and thermal properties of ground were applied in the numerical model. In a series of comparisons with experiment results and numerical study, thermal performance of thermosyphon can be evaluated.

식품의 건조는 저장성을 향상시키고 수송을 간편하게 하나 특별한 경우는 건조과정에서 일어나는 성분변화에 의해 풍미, 색깔, 조직 등이 향성되게 하는 경우도 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 건조에 의해 풍미의 저하, 색깔의 퇴조, 영양성분의 손실 및 조직과 형태의 손상 등 품질을 저하시키므로 가능한 저온에서 단시간에 수분을 제거해야 한다. 건조식품의 저장성은 수분활성도, 제품의 종류, 저장온도등 다양한 요인들에 영향을 받으며, 특히 수분 활성도에 따라 비효소 갈색화 반응, 지방의 산패, 미생물의 발생정도가 달라진다. 따라서 건조식품 저장시 변질을 방지하기 위해서는 식품의 수분함량을 측정할 수 있는 등온흡습곡선을 작성하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 식품의 단분자층 수분함량을 결정하고, 흡습에 필요한 에너지를 구함으로서 건조식품의 저장조건 및 포장조건의 선택시 유용한 자료가 된다. 특히 식품분말의 흡습특성은 분말입자의 크기, 형태, 화학성분 등과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 위의 사실로 미루어 볼 때 본 연구에서는 시판 유통되고 있는 두부를 진공동결 시킴으로써 위생화와 장기저장 가능성을 연구하면서 진공동결 건조 후 시료의 수분활성, 재수화 및 일반성분 변화를 검토하고자 한다.

The absorption characteristics of Korean yam powder according to different drying methods were investigated. The physical properties of yam powder by different drying methods were showed the biggest porosity in freeze drying sample, while the smallest in hot air drying sample. No difference was founded in proximate compositions of yam powder by various drying methods. The amount of total phenolic compound and Vit C were showed the bigger decrement in freeze dried sample than other drying methods. The time reaching to equilibrium moisture content were determined in 12 days. Monolayer moisture contents were predicted to 0.0508∼0.0588 by BET equation and 0.0705∼0.0811 g H2O/g solid by GAB equation. BET equation for isothermal absorption curve showed over 0.95 R-square for every drying methods. GAB equation showed over 0.99 in vacuum and freeze drying but a poor R-square in hot air drying.

일반적으로 일반 및 유해폐기물 매립지에서 진흙층의 기능적 수행목적은 다음과 같다고 할 수 있다. 지표면 유출의 증진을 위하고, 우수의 침투억제 및 폐기물의 표면 노출 시 완충작용, 따라서 최종복토의 붕괴는 이러한 중요 기능을 마비시키고 있다. 본 연구는 추운 날씨상태의 폐기물 매립지 최종복토의 거동을 수행하였으며, 실제로 설계된 세 개의 거대한 실험실 Tank에서 복토에 대한 실험이 시행되었다. 이 거대한 실험장비의 제원은 0.75m x 2.4m와 2.0m 깊이로 되어 있다. Tank안은 시방서적으로 폐기물 매립지가 요구하는 진흙층과 최종복토를 위한 물질로 채워졌다. 그들의 실험결과는 동질/융해에 따른 진흙과 복토층의 붕괴현상은 물리적, 공학적인 측면에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 본문은 실험에 사용된 복토층의 묘사, 그들의 실험결과들과 실험을 통한 결과분석 및 결론을 설명하고 있다. 실험결과로서는 각 모형들의 우수와 침출수 자료, 온도변화의 배경과 최종복토에서의 Water Balance를 포함하고 있다. 또한 결과로서 시험된 세 개의 모형들은 매립지에서의 동결깊이(29cm~32cm)를 나타내주며 그들 중 하나의 모형은 배수층을 가지고 있어 침출수억제에 효과적이므로 다른 모형보다 복토층으로서 우위에 있다는 것을 지적하고 있다.

Until now, the thickness design of anti-freezing layer has been empirically conducted using the frost depth determined from the freezing index. This approach cannot consider the structural properties of anti-freezing layer, which can cause the over-design of pavement structure. This paper presents results of structural evaluation of anti-freezing layer using the Falling Weight Deflectormeter (FWD) deflections. The FWD testing was directly conducted on top of the subbase layer located at the embankment, cutting, and boundary area of each section. It is observed from this testing that the center deflections of pavement structure with anti-freezing layer are smaller than those without anti-freezing layer. The deflection reduction rates are 15~55% in the embankment, 11~64% in the cutting, and 2~38% in the boundary, respectively. It was also found that the use of antifree zing layer enables to reduce the Surface Curvature Index (SCI) values up to 24 percent. Fatigue lives show that pavement structure with antifreezing layer are about two times higher than the those without anti-freezing layer. This fact indicates that the anti-freezing layer should be considered as a structural layer in the asphalt pavement system.

동결건조법에 의한 저유전성 실리카 박막의 제조공정 개발 및 층간 절연물질로의 응용성이 연구되었다. 코팅용 폴리머 실리카 졸은 TEOS와 이소프로판올(iso-propanol:IPA)또는 터트부탄올(tert-butanol:TBA)을 용매로한 2단계 공정에 의하여 제조되었으며, 이들 졸을 p-Si(111)웨이퍼 상에 스핀코팅한 습윤겔 박막을 동결건조 하여 다공성 실리카 박막을 제조하였다. 균일한 박막 코팅층을 얻을 수 있는 실리카 졸의 최적 점도범위는 IPA와 TBA를 용매로 한 실리카 졸의 경우 각각 10~14 cP와 20~30cP 정도였으며 스핀속도는 2000 rpm 이상이었다. 결함이 없는 다공성 실리카 박막은 TBA(빙점 $25^{\circ}C$)를 동결용매로 하여-196$^{\circ}C$까지 급랭시킨 후 $0^{\circ}C$와 0.1 torr 까지 가열 감압한 상태에서 고상의 TBAFMF 모두 제거한 다음 20$0^{\circ}C$까지 열처리하여 제조되었다. 다공성 실리카 박막의 두께는 졸의 타입과 스핀코팅 속도에 의해 2500~15000$\AA$범위 내에서 제어가 가능하였으며 이들 막의 밀도와 유전상 수 값은 각각 0.9$\pm$0.3g/㎤(기공율 60$\pm$10%)과 2.4 정도였다.

Rock Weathering is a basic of geomorphological evolution as a preparation of materials. Of those, frost shattering has traditionally been considered as the operative process causing rock breakdown in cold regions as well as temperate zone. Each Granite(fresh rock, semi-weathered), Gneiss, Limestone, Dolomite was prepared slab specimens in ten, repeated freeze-thaw cycles of 180 under the -25℃~+30℃, and the changes was observed in physical properties and weathering aspect. Rock shattering was more active in waterlogging conditions rather than atmospheric and soil conditions. Limestone and Dolomite that high porosity are most severely crushed. Gneiss, regardless surface of the crack, joint, fissure and has a lowest rock strength(SHV), was even though no physical changes and their weathering product do not generate, has a very high resistance to weathering.

Reconstruction of rabbit corneal epithelium was performed through dynamic culture method using self-manufactured amniotic membrane supporter and lyophilized amniotic membrane. Rabbit corneal epithelial cells were cultured and cryopreserved after isolation from limbus, and the cells could be proliferated by passage number 10. The basal layer was well formed, and the epithelium layer was constructed tightly by the increase of cell proliferation and differentiation by dynamic culture method than static culture. Thus, the reconstruction of the corneal epithelium using lyophilized amniotic membrane is considered to be a good in vitro model for transplantation of corneal epithelium to patients with a severely damaged cornea.
