The cost of repairing the deterioration of concrete structures due to corrosion of the reinforcement steel has been the prominent figure in the maintenacne of the reinforced-concrete infrastructures. As an alternative material to steel reinforcement, the use of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bar in concrete is being actively studied for the high resistance of chemical environment and high strength to weight ratio properties of FRP. However, there remain various aspects of FRP properties that still need to be studied before the standard design criteria can be established. One of the imminent issues is the bond between FRP and concrete. In this study, the bond-behavior of FRP bars in concrete is investigated via the pullout test with three varying parameters: surface condition of FRP bars, concrete compression strength, and cyclic loading patterns. As a result of experiment, the bond strength of GFRP increased with the concrete compression strength increasing and decreased with applying cyclic load.

자기애자는 전차선로 설비에서 가장 중요한 전기절연재료이지만, 내충격에 결함이 있고 파괴되기 쉽고, 무거워 취급에 어려움이 따른다. 이러한 자기애자의 단점을 해결하기 위하여 고분자 애자의 개발이 진행되어지고 있다. 그러나 고분자 애자의 경우 재질 특성상 자기 애자보다 분진의 부착이 쉽고 부착된 분진의 세척이 어려운 단점이 있어, 장기 사용 시 특성 변화가 우려된다. 본 연구에서는 TiO2 세라믹 타겟이 부착된 비대칭 마그네트론 스퍼터링 장치를 이용하여 TiO2 박막을 증착하였으며 증착되어진 TiO2 박막의 광촉매 특성과 트라이볼로지 특성을 고찰하였다. 광촉매 특성으로는 표면 접촉각 분석을 통하여 고찰하였으며, 트라이볼로지 특성으로는 경도, 잔류응력, 마찰계수, 표면 거칠기 등을 평가하였다. 또한 XRD, FESEM 분석 등 구조분석을 통하여 광촉매 특성과 트라이볼로지 특성등과의 연관성을 규명하였다.

이번 연구의 목적은 순수 타이타늄의 표면을 양극산화법으로 표면처리하여 표면의 특성변화를 연구하고, 이에 따른 세포부착 특성의 차이를 연구하는 것이다. 원반 모양의 타이타늄을 전해질용액에서 300V - 550V의 전압을 주어 양극산화 하고 표면특성을 관찰한 결과, 전압이 높아짐에 따라 표면의 분화구 크기가 커지는 양상을 보였으며 아울러 표면 거칠기도 증가되었다. 세포 부착 실험결과 전압이 증가함에 따라 세포부착 및 증식세포수는 감소하였다. 300V 이상의 양극산화 전압은 표면의 거칠기는 증가시키지만 세포증식은 오히려 억제되는 것이 관찰되었다.

This was the second study on the ecological characteristics of the epiphytes on seagrass leaf. The objective of this study was to understand the variation of epiphytes on seagrass leaf depending on the change of physico-chemical factors such as salinity, nutrients, and etc. This study showed the four results. 1) The eelgrass growth was influenced by water temperature, suggesting the positive correlation between eelgrass growth and water temperature. 2) The epiphytes growth on seagrass leaves did not show the correlation with water temperature, but negatively correlated with salinity. 3) The eelgrass growth decreased when the concentraion of nitrogen increased. 4) However, loads of epiphytes increased when the concentration of total nitogen (TN), nitrate ($NO_3^-$), and nitrite ($NO_2^-$) were high. This increase of epiphytes growth could be suggested in the cause-effect pathway of nutrient enrichment leading to seagrasses loss.

This study was to evaluate bond properties between high-strength steel fiber reinforced concrete and high strength steel rebar. An direct bond test were performed to evaluate the bond performance of high strength steel rebar in two types of high-strength concrete with steel fiber volume fraction (0, 20, $40kg/m^3$). Also, relative bond strength was defined to determine the effect of steel fiber volume fraction on bond strength. The bond test results showed that the bond performance of high strength steel rebar and high strength concrete tended to increase with higher compressive strength and steel fiber volume fraction. Relative bond strength which performed to analyze effect of steel fiber volume fraction showed increased relative bond strength with increased steel fiber volume fraction.

The primary objective of this research is a study on the pullout bond characteristics of untensioned prestressing strand in concrete. The bond characteristics of untensioned prestressing strand in concrete differs from that of deformed reinforcing bar. In order to use and design untensioned prestressing strand as deformed reinforcing bar, a study for bond characteristics of the untensioned prestressing strand was progressed. Major test variables are embedment length ($10d_b{\sim}60d_b$), concrete cover (45mm, 70mm, 100m) and diameter of strands. (12.7mm : SWPC7, 9.3mm : SWPC7A) As a results, these showed that average bond stress was decreased as a growing the embedment length, and then showed that the bond performance of untensioned prestressing strand was improved if embedment length was above 60$60d_b$.

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.

The strengthening of concrete structures in situ with externally bonded carbon fiber is increasingly being used for repair and rehabilitation of existing structures. Because carbon fiber is attractive for this application due to its good tensile strength, resistances to corrosion, and low weight. Generally bond strength and behavior between concrete and carbon fiber mesh(CFM) is very important, because of enhancing bond of CFM. Therefore if bond strength is sufficient, it will be expect to enhance reinforcement effect. Unless sufficient, expect not to enhance reinforcement effect, because of occuring bond failure between concrete and CFM. In this study, the bond strength and load-displacement response of CFM to the concrete by the direct pull-out test(the tensile-shear test method) were investigated using the experiment and the finite element method analysis with ABAQUS. The key variables of the experiment are the location of clip, number of clips and thickness of cover mortar. The general results indicate that the clip anchorage technique for increasing bond strength with CFM appear to be effective to maintain the good post-failure behavior.

Recently, as the service life of structures increased, the load-carrying capacity of deteriorated reinforced concrete, where corrosion of reinforcing bars occurs due to various causes, is frequently decreased. In order to address this problem, many studies on the bond characteristic of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) bars with corrosion resistance, light weight and high tensile strength have been conducted, however there are not many studies on the bond characteristic of grid-typed CFRP embedded in concrete. Therefore, in order to evaluate the bond characteristics of grid-typed CFRP and its usability as a substitute for steel rebar, a pull-out test is performed using the longitudinal bond length and transverse grid length of the grid-typed CFRP as variables. Through the pull-out test, the bond load-slip curve of the grid-typed CFRP is derived, and the bond behavior is analyzed. The total bond load equation is proposed as the sum of the bond force of the longitudinal bond length and the shear force of the grid in the transverse direction. Also, expressing the area of the bond load-slip curve as total work, the change in dissipated energy with respect to the slip is analyzed to examine the effect of the tranverse grid on the bond force.
