The number of old concrete structure which needs to be strengthened has been increased. The repair and strengthening methods have to be determined based on the current status of the structure. Consequently the estimation method for the damage status of the structure has been desperately needed, but no studies have been tried to use the crack and deflection characteristics to estimate the damage status. In this study, the crack characteristics depending on load level were measured and analysed. The crack characteristics observed from 11 samples were compared with damage status, and load level, The crack characteristics examined in this study include crack number, crack length, crack range, crack interval, maximum crack length, crack area, and average crack length. The deflections were normalized based on yield deflection, and the relationship between the relative deflection and the standardized crack characteristics were compared. Among the crack characteristics, crack interval, crack area, crack range, and maximum crack length, have been showed a close relationship to the relative deflection. Therefore, if such crack characteristics are evaluated, the maximum load applied to the structure is believed to be estimated. if additional parameters such as size of specimen, strength of concrete and steel, and steel ratio are studied, the damage status of structure can be estimated more accurately.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) was applied to an evaluation of the concrete condition of bridge decks with asphalt concrete. Deterioration was considered to have occurred when the relative permittivity of a concrete-faced asphalt concrete overlay showed more than 12. The relative permittivity of concrete varied considerably with the levels of porosity and water. In this study, GPR tests were carried out to determine the influence of weather and concrete condition on the relative permittivity for the research subject of an overlaid concrete bridge deck in public service. According to the test results, if bridge decks are in good condition, the relative permittivity of the top concrete of a bridge deck exhibited a normal distribution. After the deck concrete deteriorated, the relative permittivity varied with the amount of penetrated water according to the weather condition and deteriorated status of deck concrete.

타이어는 여러가자의 중요한 기능을 갖추고 있으나 공기압이 부족하거나 또는 공기가 누출된 상태에서 사용하여 타이어가 손상된 경우에는 자동차의 조종성, 안정성에 중대한 영향이 미친다는 것은 명백한 사실이다. 이러한 타이어 손상의 일례로서 트럭ㆍ버스용 타이어의 블리딩(bleeding) C.B.U.가 있다. 본고는 이와같은 손상에 대하여 실제 사용조건에서 재현 테스트를 실시하여 그 발생요인을 해석한 일본 자동차 타이어 협회의 자료에서 발췌한 것이다.

PWR 원자력발전소의 정상 및 과도상태 운전중 동적모델과 확산모델을 이용하여 핵분열 생성물이 냉각재로 유출되는 현상을 모델링하고 국내외 핵연료 검사자료를 이용하여 개발된 전산프로 그램을 실증하였다. 손상핵연료수 예측결과 기존에 개발되어 사용되고 있는 Westinghouse사의 CADE 코드와 ABB-CE사의 IODYNE 코드보다 더 정확하였으며, 손상영역 및 연소도 예측도 비교적 정확하였다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the current status of the Injury based on the 7th National Data on the National Health and Nutrition Survey, identify the relationship between general characteristics, safety awareness, health status, injury, and identify the factors that affect the occurrence of injury. The subjects were selected for the final analysis of 1,608data. For the analysis, frequency analysis, cross analysis, and multiple logistic regression analysis were performed. the results of the study show that in the young-old elderly, gender(woman), marital status(separated of divorced), lower the awareness of safety, body discomfort, sickness, and in-outpatient, Annual unmet medical service experienced are higher the occurrence of injury. Therefore, as a prevention education that lowers the incidence of injury. selective education is required for the Young-old and Old-old elderly, and legal penalties for drunk driving on various means of transportation and an integrated approach to strengthening and education is required.

This paper presents a multi-scale progressive fatigue damage model incorporating the model for interfacial debonding between fibers and matrix. The micromechanics model for the progressive interface debonding was adopted, which defined the four different interface phases: (1) perfectly bonded fibers; (2) mild imperfect interface; (3) severe imperfect interface; and (4) completely debonded fibers. As the number of cycles increases, the progressive transition from the perfectly bonded state to the completely debonded fiber state occurs. Eshelby's tensor for each imperfect state is calculated by the linear spring model for a damaged interface, and effective elastic properties are obtained using the multi-phase homogenization method. The fatigue damage evolution formulas for fiber, matrix and interface were proposed to demonstrate the fatigue behavior of CFRP laminates under cyclic loading. The material parameters for the fiber/matrix fatigue damage were characterized using the chaotic firefly algorithm. The model was implemented into the UMAT subroutine of ABAQUS, and successfully validated with flat-bar UD laminate specimens ([0]₈,[90]₈, [30]₁₆) of AS4/3501-6 graphite/epoxy composite.

In this study, a prognostic technique for cavitation erosion that is applicable to centrifugal pumps is devised. To estimate the erosion states of pumps, damage rates are calculated based on cavitation noise measurements. The accumulated damage is predicted by using Miner's rule and the estimated damage undergone when coping with particular operating conditions. The remaining useful life (RUL) of the pump impellers is estimated according to the accumulated damage prediction and based on the assumption of future operating conditions. A Monte Carlo simulation is applied to obtain a prognostic uncertainty. The comparison of the prediction and the test results demonstrates that the developed method can be applied to predict cavitation erosion states and RUL estimates.

Visual inspection works are very important part of facility maintenance and management life cycle as a step of creating base data for decision making and maintenance and repair. But currently, visual inspection works have been performed unefficiently and unreliably as works on hand, duplication of works, decisions of defect state, unutilization of inspection history, lack of professional and so on. In this research, we developed visual inspection system that processes inspection work efficiently and provides reliability of inspection output, as a target of bridges, tunnels, underground roadway on national road. We defined problems through visual inspection work analysis, examined the solutions and reflected to functional design of system. We will plan to utilize this system in HMCS(Highway Maintenance and Construction Service).

레이저를 이용한 구강 및 인후두 수술시 endotracheal tubes의 손상은 치명적이라 아니 할 수 없다. 이에 저자들은 여러 가지 endotracheal tube를 실험 재료로 사용하여 보다 안전한 레이저 수술을 위해서 적절한 endotracheal tube를 찾기 위해 본 실험을 시행하였다. 실험에 사용된 tube는 총 5가지 - $Bivona^{TM}$, Xomed Laser Shield $II^{TM}$, Mallinckrodt Laser-$Flex^{TM}$, Rusch tube wrapped with aluminium foil tape(Rusch tube), Polyvinylchloride tube wrapped with aluminium foil tape(PVC tube) - 가 사용되었다. 사용된 레이저는 KTP/532 와 $CO_2$ laser 이며 모든 실험에서 tube를 $FiO_2$ 95%-98% 상태에서 조사하여 각각 5회씩 실시하였다. tube에 이상이 없거나 발화가 되지 않는 한 90초 동안 시행하였다. 실험 결과, KTP/532 조사시 $Bivona^{TM}$, Mallinckrodt 와 PVC tube는 심한 손상을 받거나 발화하였으며 Xomed 와 Rusch tube는 안정된 상태를 유지하였고 $CO_2$ Laser 조사시는 KTP/532 조사시와 유사한 결과를 얻었다. 한편 혈액을 endotracheal tube에 도포한 상황에서는 모든 tube가 더 심한 손상을 보이는 바 KTP/532 조사시 Xomed는 상당히 안정된 상태를 유지하였고 나머지 tube는 심한 손상 또는 발화를 보이고 $CO_2$ Laser 조사시 $Bivona^{TM}$ 와 Mallinckrodt는 발화하였고 Rusch tube는 표면이 녹았으며 Xomed와 PVC tube도 1례에서 발화하였다. 향후 이비인후과 영역에서의 레이저 수술이 증가함을 예상할 때 좀 더 레이저에 대하여 안정적이고 경제적인 endotracheal tube의 개발이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This paper is related with one of safety plans to rescue a damaged-ship whether by collision, grounding or internal accident. We discuss the problem on course stability of damaged-ship while towed under severe wind pressure. The characteristic equation to assess the stability on course, is derived from sway and yaw coupled motion of towing and towed vessels with wind effect. Through the numerical calculation on course stability of towing and towed vessels system, the relationship between the course stability of a towed damaged-ship and wind direction or towrope length, is clarified with the parameters of weather and damage conditions.
