  • A literature review on the effects of high temperature and radiation on radiation shielding concrete in Spent Fuel Dry Storage is presented in this study with a focus on concrete degradation. The general threshold is $95^{\circ}C$ for preventing long-term degradation from high temperature, and it is suggested that the temperature gradient should be less than $60^{\circ}C$ to avoid crack generation in concrete structures. The amount of damage depends on the characteristics of the concrete mixture, and increases with the temperature and exposure time. The tensile strength of concrete is more susceptible than the compressive strength to degradation due to high temperature. Nuclear heating from radiation can be neglected under an incident energy flux density of $10^{10}MeV{\cdot}cm^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$. Neutron radiation of >$10^{19}n{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ or an integrated dose of gamma radiation exceeding $10^{10}$ rads can cause a reduction in the compressive and tensile strengths and the elastic moduli. When concrete is highly irradiated, changes in the mechanical properties are primarily caused by variation in water content resulting from high temperature, volume expansion, and crack generation. It is necessary to fully utilize previous research for effective technology development and licensing of a Korean dry storage system. This study can serve as important baseline data for developing domestic technology with regard to concrete casks of an SF (Spent Fuel) dry storage system.

  • Purpose: We evaluated usefulness of abdominal compressor for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and hepato-biliary cancer and metastatic liver cancer patients. Materials and Methods: From November 2011 to March 2012, we selected HCC patients who gained reduction of diaphragm movement >1 cm through abdominal compressor (diaphragm control, elekta, sweden) for HT (Hi-Art Tomotherapy, USA). We got planning computed tomography (CT) images and 4 dimensional (4D) images through 4D CT (somatom sensation, siemens, germany). The gross tumor volume (GTV) included a gross tumor and margins considering tumor movement. The planning target volume (PTV) included a 5 to 7 mm safety margin around GTV. We classified patients into two groups according to distance between tumor and organs at risk (OAR, stomach, duodenum, bowel). Patients with the distance more than 1 cm are classified as the 1st group and they received SBRT of 4 or 5 fractions. Patients with the distance less than 1 cm are classified as the 2nd group and they received tomotherapy of 20 fractions. Megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) were performed 4 or 10 fractions. When we verify a MVCT fusion considering priority to liver than bone-technique. We sent MVCT images to Mim_vista (Mimsoftware, ver .5.4. USA) and we re-delineated stomach, duodenum and bowel to bowel_organ and delineated liver. First, we analyzed MVCT images to check the setup variation. Second we compared dose difference between tumor and OAR based on adaptive dose through adaptive planning station and Mim_vista. Results: Average setup variation from MVCT was $-0.66{\pm}1.53$ mm (left-right) $0.39{\pm}4.17$ mm (superior-inferior), $0.71{\pm}1.74$ mm (anterior-posterior), $-0.18{\pm}0.30$ degrees (roll). 1st group ($d{\geq}1$) and 2nd group (d<1) were similar to setup variation. 1st group ($d{\geq}1$) of $V_{diff3%}$ (volume of 3% difference of dose) of GTV through adaptive planing station was $0.78{\pm}0.05%$, PTV was $9.97{\pm}3.62%$, $V_{diff5%}$ was GTV 0.0%, PTV was $2.9{\pm}0.95%$, maximum dose difference rate of bowel_organ was $-6.85{\pm}1.11%$. 2nd Group (d<1) GTV of $V_{diff3%}$ was $1.62{\pm}0.55%$, PTV was $8.61{\pm}2.01%$, $V_{diff5%}$ of GTV was 0.0%, PTV was $5.33{\pm}2.32%$, maximum dose difference rate of bowel_organ was $28.33{\pm}24.41%$. Conclusion: Despite we saw diaphragm movement more than 5 mm with flouroscopy after use an abdominal compressor, average setup_variation from MVCT was less than 5 mm. Therefore, we could estimate the range of setup_error within a 5 mm. Target's dose difference rate of 1st group ($d{\geq}1$) and 2nd group (d<1) were similar, while 1st group ($d{\geq}1$) and 2nd group (d<1)'s bowel_organ's maximum dose difference rate's maximum difference was more than 35%, 1st group ($d{\geq}1$)'s bowel_organ's maximum dose difference rate was smaller than 2nd group (d<1). When applicating SBRT to HCC, abdominal compressor is useful to control diaphragm movement in selected patients with more than 1 cm bowel_organ distance.

  • Purpose: We are trying to analyze 130 patients' conditions by using our Helical Tomotherapy, which was installed in our center in Oct. 2007. We will be statistically approach this examination and analyze so that we will be able to figure out adaptive plans according to the change in place of the tumor, GTV (gross tumor volume), total amount of time it took, vector (${\upsilon}=\surd$x2+y2+z2) and the change in size of the tumor. Materials and Methods: Objectives were the patients who were medicated with Tomotherapy in our medical center since Oct. 2007 August 2008. The Average age of the patients were 53 years old (Minimum 25 years old, Maximum 83 years old). The parts of the body we operated were could be categorized as Head&neck (n=22), Chest (n=47), Abdomen (n=25), Pelvis (n=11), Bone (n=25). MVCT had acted on 2702 times, and also had acted on our adaptive plan toward patients who showed big difference in the size of tumor. Also, after equalizing our gained MVCT and kv-CT we checked up on the range of possible mistake, using x, y, z, roll and vector. We've also investigated on Set-up, MVCT, average time of operation and target volume. Results: Mean time on table was 22.8 minutes. Mean treatment time was 13.26 minutes. Mean correction (mm) was X=-0.7, Y=-1.4, Z=5.77, roll=0.29, vector=8.66 Head&neck patients had 2.96 mm less vector value in movement than patients of Chest, Abdomen, Bone. In increasing order, Head&neck, Bone, Abdomen, Chest, Pelvis showed the vector value in movement. Also, there were 27 patients for adaptive plan, 39 patients, who had long or multiple tumor. We could know that When medical treatment is one cure plan, it takes 32 minutes, and when medical treatment is two cure plan, it takes 40 minutes that one medical treatment takes 21 minutes, and the other medical treatment takes 19 minutes. Conclusion:With our basic tools, we could bring more accurate IMRT with MVCT. Also, through our daily image, we checked up on the change in tumor so that adaptive plan could work. It was made it possible to take the cure of long or multiple tumor, the cure in a nearby OAR, and the complicated cure that should make changes of gradient dose distribution.

  • This thesis aims to study the space concept of the constructive mode in the work space of the postmodernism artists since 1970s. According to the changing view of the world artists, they are searching for the characteristics of having the parameter of formative organization on how they are related to the constructive system which represents the work styles. First, this study searches for the theoretical approaches of the constructive system and parameters that were studied by Le Corbusier - the module concept as the meaning of order system being used for the basic formative construction Second, when it is regarded as a formative construction in making art as the'principles of organization'(the law of living form), which was defined by Suzanne Langer in the formative theory as the organized structure shown in growth structure in mu and ecological system, the principles governing the module rules were arthmetically analysed art-work space through the dynamic symmetry of Jay Hambidge. Therefore, this study shows the principles working on the parameters for new formative organization as follows: First, the module in the work space should be designed and built from the dynamic symmetry. Second, the module should satisfy the human needs that it must be acceptable, efficient, flexible, which are the necessary and sufficient condition for the dynamic symmetry. Third, the dynamic symmetry which has the principle of Reciprocity and the principle of Complement as its primary construction principle has the common properties and the reciprocity in the construction of the work space and when it has the self similarity, it segments organically the total space without damaging the continuum.

  • The application of FRP wire as a mean of improving strength and ductility capacity of concrete cylinders under axial compressive load through confinement is investigated experimentally in this study. An experimental investigation involves axial compressive test of three confining amounts of FRP wire and three concrete compressive strengths. The effectiveness of FRP wire confinement on the concrete microstructure were examined by evaluating the internal concrete damage using axial, circumferential, and volumetric strains. The axial stress-strain relations of FRP wire confined concrete showed bilinear behavior with transition region. It showed strain-hardening behavior in the post-cracking region. The load carrying capacity was linearly increased with increasing of the amount of FRP wire. The ultimate strength of the 35 MPa specimen confined with 3 layer of FRP wire was increased by 286% compared to control one. When the concrete were effectively confined with FRP wire, horizontal cracks were formed by shearing. It was developed from sudden expansion of the concrete due to confinement ruptures at one side while the FRP wire was still working in hindering expansion of concrete at the other side of the crack. The FRP wire failure strains obtained from FRP wire confined concrete tests were 55~90%, average 69.5%, of the FRP wire ultimate uniaxial tensile strain. It was as high as any other FRP confined method. The magnitude of FRP wire failure strain was related to the FRP wire effectiveness.

  • The application of newly developed fiber-sheet and steel-plate composite plate (FSP) as a means of improving strength and ductility capacity of concrete cylinders under axial compression load through confinement is investigated experimentally in this study. An experimental investigation involves axial load tests of two types of FSP strengthening material, two anchoring methods, and three concrete strengths. The FSP-confined cylinder tests showed that FSP provided a substantial gain in compressive strength and deformability. The performance of FRP-confined cylinders was influenced by type of the FSP strengthening material, the anchoring method, and concrete compressive strength. The FSP failure strains obtained from FSP-confined cylinder tests were higher than those from FRP-confined cylinder tests. The magnitude of FSP failure strain was related to the FSP composite effectiveness. The effects of FSP confinement on the concrete microstructure were examined by evaluating the internal concrete damage using axial, radial, and volumetric strains. From the observations obtained in this investigation, it is believed that FSP is one of the best solutions for the confinement of concrete compressive members.

  • The destruction of tissues by volume increase at food freezing is accepted as one of the factor responsible for quality damage. For this reason, the internal pressure developed in meats were investigated with a pressure transducer during freezing, frozen storage and thawing. Increasement of 6.33% for volume and $942.17\;kg/cm^2$ for density at $-20^{\circ}C$ for beef were shown. In quick and slow freezing of beef, internal pressure reached to highest point after reached to the lowest point at initial of the zone of ice crystal formation. The internal pressure was approximately $8{\sim}10\;psig$ and pressure difference was about 1 psig, which was bigger in immersion freezing than that of still-air freezing. During frozen storage of pork, internal pressure of $1.84{\sim}2.32\;psig$ occurred repeatedly as a function of sample weight at material temperature difference of ${\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The internal pressure during thawing of pork was decreased slowly after rapid increase to the maximum for less than 5min at the beginning of thawing. Internal pressure value at thawing was higher than that at freezing in most cases. Internal pressure of beef with thermal equalized freezing was about $1{\sim}4\;psig$, which was lower than that of non-thermal equalized freezing. Also, freezing time was shortened to $10{\sim}20%$.

  • Failure of small bore piping welds is a recurring problem at nuclear power plants. And the socket weld cracking in small bore piping has caused unplanned plant shutdowns for repair and high economic impact on the plants. Consequently, early crack detection, including the detection of manufacturing defects, is of the utmost importance. Until now, the surface inspection methods has been applied according to ASME Section XI requirements. But the ultrasonic inspection as a volumetric method is also applying to enforce the inspection requirement. However, the conventional manual ultrasonic inspection techniques are used to detect service induced fatigue cracks. And there was uncertainty on manual ultrasonic inspection because of limited access to the welds and difficulties with contact between the ultrasonic probe and the OD(outer diameter) surface of small bore piping. In this study, phased array ultrasonic inspection technique is applied to increase inspection speed and reliability. To achieve this object, the 3.5 MHz phased array ultrasonic transducer are designed and fabricated. The manually encoded scanner was also developed to enhance contact conditions and maintain constant signal quality. Additionally inspection system is configured and inspection procedure is developed.

  • A state-based peridynamic model is able to describe a general constitutive model from the standard continuum theory. The response of a material at a point is dependent on the deformation of all bonds connected to the point within the nonlocal horizon region. Therefore, the state-based peridynamic model permits both the volume and shear changes of the material which is promising to reproduce the complicated dynamic brittle fracture phenomena, such as crack branching, secondary cracks, cascade cracks, crack coalescence, etc. In this paper, the two-dimensional state-based peridynamic model for a linear elastic plane stress solid is employed. The damage model incorporates the energy release rate and the peridynamic energy potential. For brittle glass materials, the impact of the crack-parallel compressive stress waves on the crack branching pattern is investigated. The peridynamic solution for this problem captures the main features, observed experimentally, of dynamic crack propagation and branching. Cascade cracks under strong tensile loading and secondary cracks are also well reproduced with the state-based peridynamic simulations.

  • 식품동결에 의한 품질손상에 있어 크게 영향을 미치는 인자 중의 하나가 체적변화에 의한 조직 파괴이므로 식육 및 과채류의 냉동시 내부압력에 따른 조직파괴를 방지하기 위한 기초연구로 다양한 동결방법에 따른 내부압력 변화에 대하여 조사한 결과, 급속 및 완만동결시 우육의 내부압력 변화 경향은 동결 직전에 급격히 상승한 후 동결 초기부터 최대빙결정생성대를 통과하는 동안은 급격히 감소하다가 다시 온도가 내려감에 따라 압력변화는 증가와 감소를 반복하여 상승하는 경향을 보여 주었고, 동결시의 내부압력 크기는 약 8~10 psig 수준이며, 내부압력의 변화 경향은 정지공기식보다 침지식에서 약 1 psig 정도 크게 나타났다. 냉동냉장시에 일어나는 내부압력의 상하변화는 돈육의 품온차가 ${\pm}1^{\circ}C$일 때, 시료중량에 따라 1.84~2.32 psig 정도의 내부압력 차가 반복적으로 발생됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 돈육의 해동시 내부압력은 해동 개시 후 급격히 상승하여 5분 이내에 최고압력에 도달한 이후에는 서서히 하강하였으며, 해동시에 발생한 내부압력의 값은 동결시의 내부압력 값보다도 대부분 크게 나타났다. 또한, 균온처리한 우육의 동결시 내부압력 값은 약 1~4 psig 수준으로 균온처리하지 않은 우육에 비하여 매우 적게 나타났으며, 동결소요시간도 약 10~20% 정도 짧게 나타났다. 그리고 균온처리 및 다양한 동결방법에 따른 동결식육의 조직과 냉동냉장 중의 품질변화를 비교 검토한 결과, 동결방법에 따른 드립손실율은 우육의 경우 정지공기식으로 처리한 시료는 타 처리구에 비해 계속 높게 나타났으며, 돈육은 우육에 비해 상대적으로 드립손실량이 적게 나타났으나 송풍식으로 처리한 시료에서 저장 40일째, 7.39%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 동결 우육 및 돈육의 pH변화는 뚜렷한 차이를 나타내지 않았으며, VBN 및 TBA값에 있어서는 균온 처리한 시료가 완만 및 급속동결 처리한 타 시료에 비해 저장 200일까지 가장 변화가 없었다. 동결저장온도의 상하변동에 있어서는 온도변동 횟수가 증가할수록 pH 및 수분함량은 뚜렷한 변화가 없었으나 드립손실율, VBN 및 TBA값은 온도 변동횟수가 증가할수록 서서히 증가하는 경향을 보여 주었다.
