Neutron single crystal and powder diffraction techniques have been applied to the structure analysis of yttria-stabilized zirconium, Z $r_{0.73}$ $Y_{0.27}$ $O_{1.87}$., prepared by the skull-melting method. The crystal structure has been determined to be cubic symmetry, space group Fm/equation omitted/ with a=5.155(2)$\AA$, V=136.99(5)$\AA$, Z=4, and R(F)=5.65%, $\omega$R(I)=10.57% for 70 integrated intensities of Bragg Peaks observed from single crystal of Z $r_{0.73}$ $Y_{0.27}$ $O_{1.87}$. The stabilizer atoms randomly occupy the zirconium sites and there are displacements of oxygen atoms with amplitudes of $\Delta$/a~0.033 and 0.11 along <110> and <100> directions from the ideal positions of the fluorite structure, respectively. There are no significant differences in crystallographic data between the single crystal and powder studies. Diffraction pattern after Rietveld refinement, using neutron powder data, has shown the evidence of a tetragonal impurity phase, or a slight tetragonal distortion.

HSA800 is a new high strength steel (HSS) plate for building structures developed by POSCO and RIST in 2011. It has upper and lower bounds for yield ($F_y$) and tensile ($F_u$) strength as of 650-770MPa and 800-950MPa, respectively, with yield ratio ($F_y/F_u$) limit as of 0.85 which make steel quality more reliable and enhance the seismic resistance of structures. As made by TMCP, it has a good weldability without increasing carbon percentage. The objective of this study is to provide alternative design of mega-structural members of the Lotte World Tower (555m, 123 story), a first super-tall building in Korea, using HSS considering structural safety, constructability, and cost-effectiveness. Steel outrigger trusses, belt-trusses and steel exterior columns were selected and analyzed to evaluate the structural performance between original and alternative designs using HSS. The results show that HSS can be applied to the members which do not affect lateral stiffness of a building and, in this study, approximately 1100tons of steel were saved. It implies that HSS can save overall construction costs - manufacturing, delivery, and erection costs - by reducing mega structural member size. HSA800 was very first applied to the Lotte World Tower based on the results of this study.

Due to the decrease of line width and increase of the integration level of the device, it is expected that 'Bottom-up' method will replace currently used 'Top-down' method. Researches about 'Bottom-up' device production such as Nanowires and Nanobelts are widely held on. To utilize these technologies in devices, properties of matter should be exactly measured. Nano-indenters are used to measure the properties of nano-scale structures. Additionally, Nano-indenters provide AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy) function to get the image of the surface and get physical properties for exact position of nano-structure using this image. However, nano-indenter tips have relatively much bigger size than ordinary AFM probes, there occurs considerable error in surface image by Nano-Indenter. Accordingly, this research used 50nm Berkovich tip and 1um $90^{\circ}$ Conical tip, which are commonly used in Nano-Indenter. To find out the surface characteristics for each kind of tip, we indented the surface of thin layer by each tip and compared surface image and indentation depth. Then, we got image of 100nm-size structure by surface scanning using Nano-Indenter and compared it with surface image gained by current AFM technology. We calculated the errors between two images and compared it with theoretical error.

Advanced argillic, argillic, and phyllic zones are the most important alteration patterns to predict the hidden ore body during exploration of hydrothermal deposits. We examined the quantitative relationship between the spectral absorption characteristics and the mineral content of the synthetic mixtures such as alunite-kaolinite and illite-kaolinite using short wavelength infrared (SWIR) spectroscopy. In the alunite-kaolinite mixtures, the spectral absorption characteristics of the alunite was highly correlated with the Hull quotient reflectance(0.99) and the kaolinite had the highest correlation with the Gaussian peak(0.92). Illite-kaolinite mixtures are essential for Gaussian deconvolution because of the overlap of absorption region. Illite and kaolinite mixtures indicate the high correlation of 0.93 and 0.98, respectively. The error ranges in the alunite-kaolinite(8%) and illite-kaolinite mixtures(5%) derived from SWIR were smaller than the ones(29% and 26%) obtained from X-ray diffraction(Rietveld) analysis. These results show that SWIR spectroscopic analysis is more reliable than XRD Rietveld analysis in terms of quantification of allowed minerals.

화석연료의 남용으로 지구 온난화가 심화되어 환경과 생태계변화가 가속화되고 있고, 급속한 산업의 발달과 인류 삶의 질 향상에 따른 에너지 수요가 급증하고 있는 실정에 있으며, 일본 후쿠시마 원전사태로 원자력 에너지의 위험성으로 지구 인류환경은 심각한 국면을 맞이 하고 있어 대체 에너지의 하나로 핵융합 에너지 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 핵융합 에너지 연구 개발은 우리나라에서 KSTAR가 1997년부터 건설하기 시작하여 지난 2007년에 완공되어 지금 운용 중에 있고, 국제적으로 미국, EU, 러시아, 중국, 한국, 일본 인도가 참여하는 ITER 국제 공동프로젝트가 2004년에 건설을 시작하여 프랑스 카다라쉬에 실증 플란트를 건설 중에 있다. 이러한 핵융합 반응을 위해서는 10e-7이상의 높은 진공과 1억$^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 중수소와 삼중수소가 반응하여 발생하는 플라즈마를 제어 할 필요가 있으며, 초고온의 핵융합 플라즈마를 가두고 가동시키기 위해서는 약 12Tesla이상의 고자장 마그넷이 필요하다. 현재 ITER 실증 플란트에 사용되는 고자장 마그넷은 TF (Toroidal Field)코일과 CS (Central Field)코일에 Nb3Sn 초전도선재가 핵심부품으로 사용되고 있으며 ITER프로젝트에서는 약 850톤의 Nb3Sn 초전도선재가 사용될 전망이다. 그 중에서 일본 25%, EU, 러시아와 한국이 각각 20%, 중국7%, 미국8% 할당되어 참여국 대부분은 초전도선재를 전략적으로 공급하고 있다. 초전도 선재의 크롬도금은 1~2 마이크로미터 이하의 균일하고 얇은 도금 두께와 밀착성이 우수한 품질이 요구된다. 일반적으로 크롬도금은 산업현장에서 컨베이어 벨트 방식으로 장식이나, 내식성 및 내마모성의 특성을 필요로 할 때 사용되고 있으나, 선재에 크롬도금을 릴투릴(Reel to Reel) 방식으로 적용되는 경우는 세계적으로 아주 드물다. 핵융합 마그넷의 CICC(Conduct In Cable Conduit)도체를 만들기 위해서는 초전도선재를 이용, 3(Sc 2+OFC 1)$^*3^*5^*5^*6$형태로 연선과 케이블링을 하게 되며, 초전도 선재를 연선하고 케이블링을 할 때 크롬 도금층이 박리될 가능성이 있어 크롬도금 방법과 프로세스를 특별히 고안할 필요가 있다. ITER핵융합로 마그넷의 TF코일은 높이 14m, 폭 9m 최대자장 12Tesla, 최대전류 68kA, CICC도체 직경이 40mm로서 그 초전도 조관/도체 내부에 0.82mm 직경의 Nb3Sn 초전도 선재가 약 1350가닥으로 연선과 케이블링으로 구성되어 있다. ITER 핵융합 마그넷용 초전도 선재의 크롬도금은 마그넷 권선 후 Nb3Sn 초전도물질을 형성하기 위해서 $650^{\circ}C$에서 500시간 열처리를 실시하며 열처리 시 초전도 선재의 소선들 사이에 발생할 수 있는 소착을 방지하고, 초전도 선재에서 발생하는 AC loss를 감소시키며, Quench시 발생되는 열을 쉽게 확산시킴으로써, 초전도 마그넷의 열적 안정성(Thermal Stability) 향상과 필요에 따라서 소선간 통전울 가능하게 한다. 고려제강의 자회사인 케이에이티는 크롬도금 밀착성이 우수하고 도금두께 0.1마이크로 미터 이내 제어가 가능한 얇고 균일한 도금품질을 개발하여 한국형 핵융합 실험로인 KSTAR에 65톤 전량 공급하였고, 크롬 도금된 무산소동 선재 32톤과 초전도 선재 93톤을 전량 ITER 프로젝트에 공급하고 있으며, 2013년도 상반기에는 공급을 마무리할 예정이다.

The pelvic compression belt (PCB) contributes to improving sacroiliac joint stability, and it has been used as an additional therapeutic option for patients with sacroiliac joint pain (SIJP). This study aimed to investigate whether the muscle activation patterns of the supporting leg was different between asymptomatic subjects and subjects with SIJP during one-leg standing, and how it changes with the PCB. 15 subjects with SIJP and 10 asymptomatic subjects volunteered to participate in this study. Surface electromyography (EMG) data (reaction time [RT] and muscle activation) were collected from the internal oblique, lumbar multifidius, gluteus maximus and biceps femoris muscles during one-leg standing with and without the PCB. Without the PCB condition, in the SIJP group, the biceps femoris muscle showed the fastest RT among all muscles (p<.05), whereas in the asymptomatic group, the RT of the internal oblique muscle was the most rapid (p<.05). In condition without the PCB, the biceps femoris EMG amplitudes in the SIJP group were significantly greater than that in the asymptomatic group (p<.05). After the application of the PCB, the RT of the biceps femoris muscle was significantly increased only in the SIJP group (p<.05). Moreover, the biceps femoris EMG amplitudes significantly decreased and the gluteus maximus EMG amplitudes significant increased only in the SIJP group by applying the PCB (p<.05). However, this had no such effect on the gluteus maximus and biceps femoris EMG patterns in the asymptomatic group (p>.05). Thus, this study supports the applying the PCB to patients with SIJP can be used as a helpful option to modify the activation patterns of the gluteus maximus and biceps femoris muscle.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of industrialization and urbanization of Gwangyang Bay Region on the change of urban system and spatial structure between triangle-cities located in Gwangyang Bay, Yeosu City, Suncheon City, and Gwangyang City, one of the famous industrial zones in Korea. Large-scale development projects carried out by the central government in the Gwangyang Bay Region such as construction of the Second Oil Refinery in the mid-1960s, completion of the POSCO Gwangyang Steelworks in the mid-1980s, construction of the Gwangyang Port Container Terminal in 1987 and designation of the Gwangyang Bay Area Free Economic Zone in 2003, and EXPO 2012 Yeosu Korea, affected to changes of the urban system and spatial structure between triangle-cities in Gwangyang Bay Region. The above four-development projects transformed the urban and spatial structures between the three cities in the Gwangyang Bay Region from a mononuclear urban system centered on Suncheon to a network city system. Historically, Suncheon has served as an exclusive center in the eastern region of Jeonnam, including the Gwangyang Bay Region. However, the hosting of the 2012 Yeosu Expo Korea is reorganizing the three cities into a network-type spatial structure with the strengthening of connectivity and integration in the region. And this trend is expected to intensify in the future.

This study evaluated the burnability and hydration reaction of clinker burned with high Al₂O₃ content OPC to apply large amounts of industrial by-products in the cement manufacturing process. Specifically, after preparing a clinker with a high C₃A content by burning the OPC raw material with a high content of Al₂O₃ in a laboratory electric furnace, the burnability of the clinker was evaluated through XRD Rietveld analysis and polarization microscopy, and clinker hydration reactivity was reviewed through the Isothermal conduction calorimetry analysis and the cement compressive strength. As a result, the kiln burning temperature for the production of high Al₂O₃ content clinker lower, and the compressive strength was equal to or higher than OPC. Therefore it was confirmed the possibility to manufacturing energy-saving high Al₂O₃ content clinker using a large amount of industrial by-products.

This study is aimed at the improvement of administrative operations of landscape design competitions and qualitative enhancement of design quality by mutually comparing the guidelines and entry plans. The case targeted for the current study is landscape design proposals for the Seoul Hangdong Bogeumjari Housing District recently launched within a greenbelt zone in the outskirts of Seoul. The study examines from a critical perspective the design guidelines and the contents of the three winning design proposals with a focus on whether or not they have reflected the guidelines. It was observed that many provisions of the principles and conceptual guidelines which serve as clues to the designs for winning designs proposals show the direction in which the project is to be headed It was also observed that the provisions and the way they are expressed are intertwined, while, at the same time, the guidelines were not organized or developed in an orderly manner. Such a structural pattern of the guidelines is linked to the aspects of the contents of the winning design proposals as described in the following. It is observed that guidelines related to the direction in which the design to be headed are so regulatory and lengthy that they are overly standardized. This could make it difficult to read the possibility of the alternative shifts in the winning design proposals. At the same time, the attributes of winning design proposals themselves, which require observable discriminatory superiority, could serve as a factor causing excess of meanings by jumping on the bandwagon of naming. On the contrary, where autonomy of design is guaranteed or no guidelines are provided for the winning design proposals, discriminatory differences were observed, thereby making it easy to measure them This illustrates well that guidelines and structural format should be provided through a separate undertaking that has taken into careful consideration environmental traits of the site in question, objectives required and so forth.
