황토는 대표적인 천연 무기염재의 일종으로서 바람에 의해 운반되어 퇴적된 담황색 내지는 황회색을 띠는 실트질의 퇴적물을 일컫는다. 황토의 구성물질은 주로 석영, 장석, 산화철광물, 깁사이트 등의 여러 가지 점토광물을 포함하는데, 주로 적색을 띠는 것은 소량의 산화철 광물에 기인되는 경우가 많으며 황토를 구성하는 점토광물로는 버미큘라이트, 카오린 광물인 캐올리나이트와 할로이사이트, 일라이트 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 면직물에 천연 무기염재인 황토를 사용한 염색시에 황토 단독염색과 콩즙 전처리 후 황토염색으로 나누어 염색을 실시하고, 원료 황토와 황토염색 후 면직물에 부착된 성분 간에 차이가 있는지를 확인하기 위해 X선 형광분석(X-ray fluorescence analysis, XRF)을 이용하여 염색 전.후 황토의 성분을 분석하였고, X선 회절분석(X-ray diffraction analysis, XRD)을 이용하여 황토 및 염색 전 후 면직물에 부착된 광물질의 주성분을 분석하였으며, energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS)가 장착된 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 면직물에 부착된 광물의 성분을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 황토로 면직물을 염색하는 경우 면직물에 부착되는 황토의 양과 K/S 값은 거 의 비례하여 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 황토 염색 후 면직물에 부탁되는 주성분은 주로 SiO$_2$, A1$_2$O$_3$, Fe$_2$O$_3$등인 것으로 나타났으며, X선 회절분석과 EDS분석에 의해 캐올리나이트, 일라이트 등의 점토광물의 형태로 존재하는 것이 확인되었다.

A CFRP (Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Plastic) strengthening method is being very widely used to increase the load-carrying capacity of host structures, especially for bridges. However, not only flexure and shear failures but debonding failure also might occur in CFRP strengthened concrete structures. The CFRP debonding failure would cause a collapse accident of the host structure. Therefore, real-time health monitoring about the CFRP bonding condition is strongly required. In this study, a feasibility of the impedance-based damage detection method using PZT sensors is investigated through a series of experimental study monitoring both concrete cracks and CFRP debonding defects.

In a direct sea water electrolysis system, deposits on the electrode cause decrease in the performance and increase in electrode damage. To reduce the deposition on the electrode, the modified cells were developed, namely: replaced grating type anodes with plate type ones; reduced the number of anodes from 9 to 8; widened the electrode gap from 2.4 mm to 3.0 mm; and reduced the number of spacers. that maintained the electrode gap, from 27 to 10. The developed cells were installed and tested at a power plant. The modified cells reduced deposition by 36~60%. The current efficiency increased by 15~20%. The electricity consumption reduced by 20%. In each case, the comparisons were between the modified cells and standard cells.

장비나 부품이 비행 또는 수송 등 실제상황에서 겪게되는 진동환경에 얼마만큼 견디는지 여부를 확인하고, 예상되는 동적 하중에 의한 성능저하나 오 동작이 일어나지 알는지 확인하기 위해 환경진동시험(environmental vibration test)이 수행된다. 이러한 환경진동시험의 경우에는 대형(대용량)의 진동시험기(shaker 또는 exciter)가 이용되며 진동시험기로부터 에너지를 시험물에 기계적으로 전달시켜줄 수 있는 진동 시험치구(이하, "치구(fixture)")가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 치구의 설계문제가 대두되며, 환경진동시험의 성공여부를 좌우하는데 대단히 중요한 역할을 하게 된다. 치구의 설계시 가장 중요한 점은 시험규격에 정해진 기준스펙트럼(specified reference spectrum)이 치구 위에 설치될 여러 시험물부착점들에 그대로 전달될 수 있는 강체치구(rigid fixture)를 설계하는 것이 가장 이상적이지만 치구의 공진 및 반공진 특성으로 인해 시험물부착점들 마다 스펙트럼이 달라지게 된다. 따라서 시험물은 과대시험(overtest) 또는/그리고 과소시험(undertest)를 겪게된다.최근의 진동시험제어 기법으로서는 다채널시스템을 이용한 여러 시험부착점들에서의 진동레벨의 평균을 제어하는 평균제어기법(average control technique)이 이용되므로서 시험주파수 범위에서 공진진동수(resonance frequency)들은 기준스펙트럼과 동일하게 제어가 가능하나 반공진 진동수(antiresonance frequency)들에서는 반공진 진동수들이 갖는 물리적 특성으로 인해 기준스펙트럼과 동일하게 제어가 이루어지지 않으므로시험규격에 정해진 정확한 진동시험이 수행되지 못하게된다.본 연구에서는 치구의 설계단계에서 치구 위의 여러 시험물 부착점들- 평균제어점(average control points)- 에서의 반공진 진동수들을 고려하여 그 감도를 게산하고, 치구의 구조변경을 수행하여 시험물 부착점들에서의 반공진 진동수를 일치시키므로서 종래의 진동시험제어시 나타나는 반공진진동수에서의 문제점을 제거할 수 있고, 그 결과 시험물 부착점들에서의 스펙트럼이 시험규격에 정해진 스펙트럼대로 진동시험이 수행될 수 있게 하는데 있다.

Existing states of attached algae in the sedimentation basin was observed during late april to early october, and the attached algae were visible 7 days after of cleaning the trough and the communities of algae became larger with increasing the operation periods. Attached algae community included bluegreen algae (Oscillatoria sp.), diatom (Synedra sp.,) and green algae (Mougeotia sp., Oedogonium sp.) and suspended diatom (Stephanodiscus sp.) as well. Diatom (Cymbella sp., Navicula sp., Synedra sp. and Stephanodiscus sp.), green algae(Mougeotia sp. and Cosmarium sp.) and blue-green algae (Anabaena sp.) were detected in the effluent of sedimentation basin. The chlorophyll-a (chl-a)concentrations of algae community on a square centimeter after 14 and 28 days were distinctively different depended on the copper sulphate treatment. The concentration of chl-a were $4{\mu}g/L/cm^2$ and $19{\mu}g/L/cm^2$ for the copper sulphate treated water and $59{\mu}g/L/cm^2$ and $147{\mu}g/L/cm^2$ for the untreated water. Diatom algae fragments were observed in red-brownish sediments on the bottom of industrial water distribution basin and degraded blue-green and green algae formated organic sediments combined with oxidized iron.

The use of hybrid FRP-concrete structures with a dual purpose of both permanent formwork and reinforcement, has been considered in some studies recently. For the FRP plank and the concrete to act as a composite structural member a satisfactory bond at the interface between the smooth surface of the pultruded plank and the cast-in-place concrete must be developed. Sand was bonded to the pultruded FRP plank using a commercially available epoxy system. In applying general analysis techniques to evaluate the performance of composite structures with FRP stay-in-place forming, it is essential that characteristics of the bond stress-slip relation be identified. In this study I would like to propose a simplified bilinear bond stress-slip model for FRP composite structures.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets have been successfully used to retrofit a number of existing concrete buildings and structures because of their excellent properties (high strength, light weight and high durability). Bond characteristics between FRP sheets and concrete should be investigated to ensure an effective retrofitting system. RC structures strengthened with FRP sheets are often subjected to cyclic load (traffic, seismic, temperature, etc.). This research addresses a local bond stress-slip relationship under cyclic loading conditions for the FRP-concrete interface. 18 specimens were prepared with three types of FRP sheets (aramid, carbon, and polyacetal) and two types of sheet layer(one or two). The characteristics of bond stress-slip were verified through experimental results on load-displacement relationship.

Concrete structures are degraded physically and chemically due to various reasons after construction. Because the deterioration of concrete structure reduces the service life, reasonable repair and maintenance techniques are needed. Recently, in order to efficiently repair concrete structures, many researches on hybrid repair materials having improved adhesion performance have been carried out actively. In this study, we developed a hybrid repair material containing rapid hardening cement, PVA powder, nylon fiber, and latex to improve adhesion and water-tightness of existing concrete. The compressive strength, drying shrinkage and the adhesion strength test were carried out to evaluate the performance of the repair material. In addition, the flexure bond performance was evaluated before and after repair. From the results, the bending strength was 110% ~ 150% in all specimens except for the specimen containing only the rapid hardening cement, and all the specimens behaved with the existing concrete in the crack pattern generated by the bending strength.

Fermented garlic extract (FGE) is a well-known functional food containing cycloalliin. Here we tested if FGE has an effect on the vascular system. We found that FGE had an effect on monocytic adhesion to endothelial cells, which occurs at the initial step of processes of inflammation. From dose-dependent experiments, 0.1 to $1{\mu}g/ml$ of FGE appeared to inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-enhanced heterotypic cell adhesion between THP-1 and BAECs. This result indicates that FGE blocks vascular inflammation. Then we found that FGE activates eNOS and Akt in BAECs. The phosphorylation of eNOS was maximally elevated 10 min after FGE treatment. Parallely, the phosphorylation of Akt was also maximally increased 10 min after FGE treatment. Consistently, it was found that FGE enhanced the production of nitric oxide. We then examined whether NO mediates THP-1 cell adhesion to BAECs. Both Akt and eNOS inhibitors appeared to reverse an inhibitory effect of FGE. These findings indicate that FGE inhibits LPS-enhanced heterotypic cell adhesion via Akt and eNOS. In conclusion, FGE plays an important role in prevention of inflammatory diseases.
