This paper describes the methods and results of the personnel dosimetry performance tests which were been implemented for the first time in Korea in 1995. Seven categories, except the neutron category prescribed in the ANSI N13.11-1993, were adopted in the test. Fifteen types of dosimeters were participated by fourteen dosimeter processing institutes. A total of 129 dosimeters were selected to test-each type - 15 dosimeters for each of the seven categories and 24 for the controls. A total of 144 radiation categories were employed in the test and a total of 2560 (including 400 controls)dosimeters were submitted-7 categories for each type of the fifteen types dosimeters and 39 categories for the retest. The performance index in each category. sum of the absolute value of the bias and the standard deviation value of the performance quotient. was estimated by the use of delivered and processed dose equivalents according to the standard procedure. The performance in a given category was assessed as acceptable, for the deep and shallow dose equivalents (or the absorbed dose), if the performance index was less than 0.5. The test results showed 54% of the processors passed in the first test, 33% in the retest and 13% in the second retest.

An angular dependence experiment was made and a performance test of the Teledyne dosimetry system was done in accordance with the ANSI N13.11-1992. The angular dependence experiment was performed with $^{137}Cs$ and low energy X-ray beam. Teledyne dosimetry system performed well at the $0^{\circ}$ angle of incidence for all dosimeters in both vertical and horizontal irradiations. It would have easily passed the 0.5 tolerance limit. But the dosimetry system was not performed well at the ${\pm}60^{\circ}$ angle of incidence for low energy X-ray beam. The accuracy for $^{137}Cs$ beam at all angles of incidence was within the 0.5 tolerance limit. Therefore performance of the dosimetry system could be considered acceptable in case that the dosimeter is irradiated to $^{137}Cs$ beam. However, it could not be acceptable for the dosimeter irradiated to low energy X-ray, especially at more than ${\pm}40^{\circ}$

체내방사능 측정시스템의 교정인자는 측정결과에 주요한 요인으로 작용한다. 교정인자는 특정 집단으로부터 표준체위와 표준장기를 도출, 이를 기초로 하여 제작한 펜텀으로부터 구하는 것이 일반적인 방법이다. 그러나 팬텀의 기하학적 구조 및 내부장기의 형상은 특정 집단에 따라 다르므로 이로 인한 측정오차가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 북아메리카 성인남성의 표준자료에 근거하여 제작된 LLNL 팬텀과 일본성인 남성의 표준자료에 근거하여 제작된 JAERI 팬텀을 한국원자럭연구소 폐 카운터를 이용하여 상호비교.분석하였다. 이와 함께 LLNL 팬텀으로 교정된 폐 카운터의 성능시험을 JAERI 팬텀으로 DOELAP 성능시험범주 I, II, III 및 IV에 대해 수행하여 편텀의 구조 및 형상으로부터 발생하는 측정오차를 분석하였다. 비교.분석결과 1.7 cm ~ 3.7 cm 근육등가 가슴벽두께 범위내에서 JAERI 팬텀에 의한 교정인자가 전반적으로 LLNL 팬텀의 것보다 다소 높은 수치를 보였으나 허용수준이었고, 성능시험결과 상대편중은 DOELAP 성능 용인 기준을 만족하였다. 결국 두 팬텀간의 측정오차는 측정 및 체내피폭선량 평가시 수반되는 오차와 비교해 보면 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 결론지울 수 있다. 따라서 LLNL 펜텀으로부터 구한 교정인자를 국내 성인남성의 일상 모니터링에 사용할 경우 측정결과가 다소 과대평가되기는 하나 허용수준으로서 큰 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

엔진 성능의 시험에 있어서 작동유체인 압축공기의 물성중 수분은 매우 중요한 부분으로, 엔진의 작동과 성능에 영향을 미치는 대표적인 요인이다. 특히 고공환경 시험에서는 습도의 조건에 따라 성능의 차이가 커지므로 엔진의 정확한 성능과 운용성을 파악하는데 작동유체인 압축공기중에 포함된 수분의 조건은 대단히 중요하다. 압축상태인 작동유체의 수분 함유량을 고공의 조건과 같은 $-40^{\circ}C$ 이하의 이슬점(Dew Point) 상태로 제습 하기 위한 장치인 흡착식 Air Dryer의 개발을 위해 흡착과정 및 재생과정에 대한 이해와 흡착제의 흡착효율을 극대화하고, 재생비용을 최소화하여 에너지를 저감 할 수 있는 Air Dryer System에 대하여 기술한다.

Unlike randomized trial, statistical strategies for inferring the unbiased causal relationship are required in the observational studies. The matching with the propensity score is one of the most popular methods to control the confounders in order to evaluate the effect of the treatment on the outcome variable. Recently, new methods for the causal inference in latent class analysis (LCA) have been proposed to estimate the average causal effect (ACE) of the treatment on the latent discrete variable. They have focused on the application study for the real dataset to estimate the ACE in LCA. In practice, however, the true values of the ACE are not known, and it is difficult to evaluate the performance of the estimated the ACE. In this study, we propose a method to generate a synthetic data using the propensity score in the framework of LCA, where treatment and outcome variables are latent. We then propose a new method for estimating the ACE in LCA and evaluate its performance via simulation studies. Furthermore we present an empirical analysis based on data form the 'National Longitudinal Study of Adolescents Health,' where puberty as a latent treatment and substance use as a latent outcome variable.

This paper deals with the fatigue behavior and strength of a new-type of steel-concrete composite bridge deck. The new-type composite bridge deck consists of corrugated steel plate, welded T-beams, stud-type shear connectors and reinforced concrete filler. A total of eight composite bridge deck specimens were fabricated, the fatigue tests were conducted under four-point bending test with three different stress ranges in constant amplitude. According to the test results, the fatigue crack generated at the welding part of the corrugated steel plate, progressed down to the bottom of the steel plate and encountered the crack, which came out from the opposite side at the same position. After the two cracks were connected at the bottom of the steel plate, the lower flange was cut off and the fatigue crack developed up to the T-beam. And the displacements and strains of fatigue test specimens were increasing with cyclic loading number, these were changed sharply at the fatigue failure. The fatigue results are compared with the design S-N curves specified in the Korea Highway Bridge Design Specifications and data in NCHRP 102 and NCHRP 147 report. The new-type composite bridge deck has a stress category of C, which means that new-type composite bridge deck can be designed by the current fatigue design specifications provided for steel members.

As a core technology realizing ubiquitous world, recent researches are being concentrated to wireless sensor network. However, most research results were focused to the sensor network technology itself, even though interworking between the sensor network and Internet is also one of primitive requirements for ubiquitous world. In this paper, we design the tiny TCP/IPv6 profile which makes it possible to inter-connect the sensor network device to IPv6 based Internet. To confirm operation of the designed profile, we experimentally implemented and evaluated minimum TCP/IPv6 based on TinyOS. The evaluation result shows that throughput of our tiny TCP/IPv6 is almost same as that of TinyOS component.

Recently composite materials have dominated most engineering fields, owing to their better performance, increased durability and flexibility to be customized and designed for a specific required property. This has given them unprecedented superiority over conventional materials. With the help of the ever increasing computational capabilities of computers, researchers have been trying to develop accurate material models for the complex and integrated properties of these composites. This has led to advances in virtual testing of composite materials as a supplement or a possible replacement of laboratory experiments to predict the properties and responses of composite materials and structures. This paper presents a review on the complex multi-scale modelling framework of the virtual testing machines, which involve computational mechanics at various length-scales starting with nano-mechanics and ending in structure level computational mechanics, with a homogenization technique used to link the different length scales. In addition, the paper presents the features of some of the biggest integrated virtual testing machines developed for study of concrete, including a multiscale modeling scheme for the simulation of the constitutive properties of nanocomposites. Finally, the current challenges and future development potentials for virtual test machines are discussed.
