Comparing with general optical fiber sensors performing localized measurement, distributed optical fiber sensors can measure along an optical fiber, and they have large measuring range. The surface-mounting method with epoxy adhesive is general in attaching optical fiber sensors to structures, This is also appliable to the structural integrity monitoring with Brillouin-scattering distributed optical fiber sensors. In this paper, Brillouin-scattering distributed optical fiber sensors, which are attached to the surface of a structure with epoxy adhesive, was verified with the finite element method. From the analysis results of strain transfer through the structure, optical fiber coating, cladding and core, the strain transfer rates were calculated. And the influence of the epoxy free-end was also studied.

For thermal-neutron-induced fission of $U^{235}$, nuclear charge distribution in the light part of the primary products has been calculated by using several postulates of charge distribution in the fission fragments. By comparing these values with the experimental results, it is revealed that those models are not appropriate for predicting the nuclear charge distribution in the fission fragments. The variation in the most probable charge, $Z_{P}$, of the isobaric distribution for the fission fragments and the charge for a mass given by unchanged charge density, $Z_{UCD}$, is turned out to be small as a function of mass. The parameter, $Z_{P}$ $-Z_{UCD}$, varies from 0.45 to 0.5 in charge units. The nuclear charge dispersion, $\sigma$, shows about 0.5 charge units for the fission fragments. Neutron odd-even effect in fission products could not be revealed clearly without considering the odd-even effect of prompt neutron emission.

우리나라는 대부분이 산지(약 65%)로 구성되어 있어 강우 시 그 공간적 분포의 변동성이 매우 큰 편이며, 특히 전형적인 산지지형인 댐 유역의 경우 고도 변화 등에 기인한 지형특성 등에 따라 강우의 형태 및 패턴과 이에 따른 유출변화가 큰 복잡한 특성을 갖는다. 이로 인해 단순히 지점강우들을 공간보간(평균)한 면적강우를 홍수 유출모의 등에 활용할 경우 그 신뢰도가 매우 낮은 경우가 많아, 수문모의에 있어 레이더에 기반을 둔 공간 분포형 강우 등의 도입 검토가 요구된다. 한편, 최근 기상청에서는 보다 정확한 레이더 강수량 추정 값의 제공을 위해 "레이더-AWS 강우강도(Radar-AWS Rainrates, RAR)" 산출 기술을 지속적으로 개선하고 있으며, 이는 지상 우량계 대비 상당한 정확도를 보이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 산지지형을 대표하며, 타 댐 유역에 비해 비교적 수문(수위/유량)관측소와 자료가 많은 용담시험유역에 기상레이더 강수량 추정 값(RAR)을 적용해 산지지형 댐 유역에서 강우의 시공간적 변동성과 이에 따른 홍수량의 정확한 분석을 통해 홍수 시 댐 유입량의 정확한 산정 등에 활용할 목적으로 홍수 유출모의를 수행하고자 한다. 모의에는 최근 5년(2014~2018년)동안 발생한 비교적 독립적인 1~2개(연도별)의 홍수사상을 적용하였으며, 모형은 분포형 강우를 적용할 수 있는 비교적 간단한 모형인 HEC-HMS를 활용하였다. HEC-HMS는 주로 집중형 수문모형(Lumped Hydrologic Model)으로 분류되어 레이더 강우와 같은 분포형 자료의 입력을 주로 적용치는 않고 있지만, HEC-GeoHMS와 ModClark 방법을 활용하면 격자단위의 분포형 강우를 적용할 수 있는 형태의 모델 구축이 가능하다. 모의 결과는 기존 유역평균 강우를 적용한 방법과 비교를 통해 그 개선점을 검토하고자 하며, 이를 통하여 산지지역 댐 유역의 홍수특성을 보다 더 정확하게 분석해보고자 한다. 한편, ModClark을 적용한 홍수 유출모의는 단순히 소유역별 도달시간의 격자별 비율을 고려한 홍수추적으로 그 해석상의 한계가 있어, 최근 개발된 하이브리드 수문모형(Hybrid Hydrologic Model, Distributed-Clark) 등도 동일유역에 대해 도입 적용할 계획에 있다.

In order to reveal sedimentary facies and geochemical characteristics on sediments distributed in upper intertidal zone, the southwestern coast of Korea, grain size and metal content analyses to the sediments were carried out. The grain size distribution of sediments shows very wide range from gravel to mud. The sediments are very well sorted to very poorly sorted and mostly positively skewed. Geochemical behavior of metals in the sediments is dependant on grain size, in part, but might be much controlled by complex submarine topography, highly varied tidal currents and surrounding land geology in the study area. Igeo (index of geoaccumulation) representing metal condensation in the sediments moderately/strongly polluted in Co and Cr and moderately polluted in Cu and Ni. But notable metal condensations are not found in the study area. So, it might be interpreted that grain size and metal content distribution tendencies in the sediments are considerably influenced by complex submarine topography, highly varied tidal currents and surrounding land geology.

To investigate sedimentary facies and environmental changes of the Nakdong River Estuary and its adjacent coastal area, the grain size analysis and measurement of organic matter, calcium carbonate, clay mineral and metallic elements were carried out for forty surface sediment samples. Based on regional distribution pattern and characteristics of the surface sediments, sedimentary facies in the study area can be divided into sand facies (TYPE I), mud facies (TYPE II) and sand-mud mixed facies (TYPE III). TYPE III is the transition of TYPE I and TYPE II in every aspects of sediment characteristics. It suggests that TYPE III may have been formed by the mixture of two different source of sediment : one derived from Nakdong River and the other resuspended fine-grained sediments from the Jinhae Bay by winnowing action during floods or storms. Among many aspects of environmental change after the construction of the Nakdong Barrage, the most significant is the increase of sand content off the sand barrier region. It could be explained by several reasons including decreased input of fine-grained sediment from river, increased hydrodynamic energy level off the sand barrier region and artificial effects such as dredging and dumping.

An effective heat transfer during freezing process was proposed in the vertical cylinder to improve the effectiveness of the heat storage. Vertical cylinder was filled with pure water in order to investigate ice-shape, temperature distribution of the liquid, temperature distribution of the cylinder tube wall, total heat storage per unit mass in the test section under the two experimental conditions; inlet temperature of working fluid is constant($-10^{\circ}C$) and inlet direction of working fluid is either upward flow or downward. Both the mean temperature of the liquid and temperature difference of cylinder tube wall in the upward were lower than those in the downward. In case that the initial temperature of water was $7^{\circ}C$ and $4^{\circ}C$, the shape of ice layer in the upward was more uniform than that in the downward. In case of $1^{\circ}C$, the shape of ice layer is formed by inlet direction of working fluid. Finally, time-varying total heat energy stored in the water in the upward was higher than that in the downward.

Many researches have been carried out on carbonation, a representative deterioration in underground structure. The carbonation of RC (Reinforced Concrete) structure can cause steel corrosion through pH drop in concrete pore water. However extension of service life in RC structures can be obtained through simple surface protection. Unlike the conventional deterministic maintenance technique, probabilistic technique can consider a variation of service life but it deals with only normal distributions. In the work, life time-probability distributions considering not only normal but also log distributions are induced, and repair cost estimation technique is proposed based on the induced model. The proposed technique can evaluate the repair cost through probabilistic manner regardless of normal or log distribution from initial service life and extended service life with repair. When the extended service life through repair has log distribution, repair cost is effectively reduced. The more reasonable maintenance strategy can be set up though actual determination of life-probability distribution based on long term tests and field investigations.

Physical properties of mudbelt sediments in the southeastern inner shelf of Korea are studied from 14 cores. Physical properties, compressional wave velocity, and sediment texture for core sediments are analyzed. The major source of sediment in the study area is the Nakdong River. Fine-grained sediments from the river are transported northeastward by coastal circulation and the Tsushima Current, resulting in a gradual northeastward increase in porosity and a decrease in wet bulk density and velocity. The trend matches well with the bathymetry. The mean grain size appears to be the most important variable to determine the physical properties and velocity. The variations of physical properties with burial depth are dependent more strongly on sediment texture than compaction and/or consolidation. Correlations between the physical properties and the sediment texture show slight deviations from those of the continental terrace sediment in the North Pacific and inner shelf sediment in the South Sea of Korea. The velocity is higher than that of the North Pacific and the South Sea sediments between these areas. This is probably due to differences in sedimentary, environment and mineral compositions. The higher sediment velocity in the study area may also be attributed to the escape of gas from pore space which decreases void ratio.

Sediments were collected from eight stations in JJJJinhae Bay and heavy metals were fractionated into the adsoibed reducible, oxidizable and residual fractions. Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in each fraction were determined by atomic absorption spectriphotmetry. Cd was shown to be mainly in the adsorbed form, Cu in the oxidizable and resedual fractions, and Pb and Zn mainly in the seducible fractions. The total concentrations of Cu, Pb and Zn in sediments decreased gradually with increasing distance from the heak of the bay, and the relationship of linear segression was obtained.

To improve various physical properties of poly(isobutylene oxide) copolymers of isobutylene oxide and cyclohexene oxide have been synthesized with triisobutylaluminum as catalyst. The molecular weights of the copolymers are rather lower than that of poly(isobutylene oxide) prepared with diethylzinc catalyst. The glass transition temperatures of the copolymers are between those of two homopolymers. The copolymers of isobutylene oxide and vinyl cyclohexene oxide showed better thermal stability. Oligomer of isobutylene oxide has been synthesized for polyol and lubricant application. Acid catalyzed oligomerization gave vary complex mixture. But base catalyzed reaction afforded the pentamer and hexamer rich oligomer mixtures.
