화재는 콘크리트 구조물의 역학적 특성에 치명적 손상을 일으켜 건축물의 안전성을 급격하게 감소시킬 수 있다. 특히 고강도콘크리트는 폭렬이 발생하여 심각한 단면 손실과 노출된 철근으로 인하여 건축물의 안전성에 치명적인 영향을 미친다. 이러한 폭렬에 대하여 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있지만, 폭렬의 발생원인은 명백하게 밝혀지진 않았다. 이에 본 연구는 콘크리트의 함수율과 열응력이 폭렬에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 폭렬로부터 구조물의 안전성을 확보하기 위한 기초 자료를 제시하였다.

Acoustic characteristics of silencer system are affected by various geometric parameters such as cross sectional geometry, size of chamber, and location of inlet-outlet port. It is impossible to obtain exact solutions of the equations of acoustic wave propagation except few simple cases. So, we resort to numerical techniques to analyze performance of acoustic system. In this work, finite element formulation has been obtained to predict transmission loss of an arbitrary 3-dimensional muffler in the presence of mean flow of low mach number. The effect of the degree of the ellipticity of expansion chambers on the transmission loss has been studied using the resulting finite element equation.

The scattering of incident ions and target atoms in the amorphous solid matters are calculated by Monte Carlo simulation method. The experimentally derived universal scattering cross-section of Kalbitzer and Oetzmann is used to describe nuclear scattering. For electronic energy loss, the Lindhard-Scharff and Bethe formula are used. Comparing the ion scattering formulas and ranges with the known results of experiment and other programs, we find our results are good agreement with others.

There have been a lot of studies about repair & strengthening of the concrete structure. But there has almost not been my study on section damage effect due to holes drilled out for installing additional facilities or equipment, such as rack on the wall of building or underground culvert system, plumbing system through the column or wall of it, after being occupied. This study is to find out how much the section loss due to holes will give loss of section strength. We cm determine if we repair or reinforce it completely or not, using strength loss from the hole. Hole size of diameter 3cm, 2cm, lcm, depth of 3cm, 5cm, 10cm, and position of each hole has been considered as variables of this study. It is concluded that section loss 30% results in 53% of strength damage.

A diagnosis system that provides early warnings regarding machine malfunction is very important for rolling mill so as to avoid great losses resulting from unexpected shutdown of the production line. But it is very difficult to provide early warnings in rolling mill. Because dynamics of rolling mill is non-linear. This paper shows a chaotic behavior of vibration signal in rolling mill using embedding method. Not only phase plane and Poincare map are implemented but also FH and histogram of vibration signal in rolling mill is presented by embedding method.

In this research, we investigate wet-etching properties of GaAs in $NH_4OH-H_2O_2-H_2O$, and develop the fabrication method of GaAs microstructures with rectangular cross section using (001) GaAs substrate. For obtaining wet-etching properties with respect to crystallographic orientation, the etch rates and cross-section etch profiles of (001) GaAs with 16 different compositions and the undercut rates with 5 different compositions are measured using $NH_4OH-H_2O_2-H_2O$ mixed solutions. From these experimental data, a new GaAs micromachining method in bulk (001) GaAs is proposed, and used to fabricate a released microbridges with a rectangular cross section. The developed GaAs micromachining method can be very useful for low-loss, highly-tunable capacitors for RF components and for integration with GaAs optical components.

Recently, various strengthening methods using carbon fiber sheets (CFS) have been developed for the rehabilitation of structures and applied to the concrete member. However, still research need arises in order to verify the structural capacity of RC member which experienced bond loss between concrete and CFS after strengthening. This is because previous research has focused on the development of design process and evaluation of structural capacity only for retrofit. The appearance of this loss may be initiated at just after retrofit construction. And it will be more serious when the layer number of CFS increases. In order to minimize above mistake in retrofit design using CFS, more exact evaluation process to predict the bond loss of CFS is required. The objective of this research is to study the variation of flexural structural capacity of beam which has experienced bond loss after strengthening using CFS. Experimental and analytical study are performed and evaluation of the previous formula is conducted. Test result showed that the significant strength deterioration was not found until the bond loss of 20%. Overall structural behavior of the beams can be predicted by nonlinear sectional analysis.

When yields the mean velocity of the closed conduit which is used generally, it is available to use Darcy Weisbach Friction Loss Head equation. But, it is inconvenient very because Friction Loss coefficient f is the function of Reynolds Number and Relative roughness (${\varepsilon}$/d). So, it is demanded more convenient equation to estimate. In order to prove the reliability and an accuracy of Chiu's velocity equation from the research which sees hereupon, proved agreement very well about measured velocity measurement data by using Laser velocimeter which is a non-insertion velocity measuring equipment from the closed conduit (Laser Doppler Velocimeter: LDV) and an insertion velocity measuring equipment and the Pitot tube which is a supersonic flow meter (Transit-Time Flowmeters). By proving theoretical linear-relation between maximum velocity and mean velocity in laboratory flume without increase and decrease of discharge, the equilibrium state of velocity in the closed conduit which reachs to equilibrium state corresponding to entropy parameter M value has a trend maintaining consistently this state. If entropy M value which is representing one section is determinated, mean velocity can be gotten only by measuring the velocity in the point appearing the maximum velocity. So, it has been proved to estimate simply discharge and it indicates that this method can be a theoretical way, which is the most important in the future, when designing, managing and operating the closed conduit.

This paper introduces the application of DE (Differential Evolutionary) method for the estimation of tensile force of the externally prestressed tendon. The proposed technique, a SI (System Identification) method using the DE algorithm, can make global solution search possible as opposed to classical gradient-based optimization techniques. The numerical tests show that the proposed technique employing DE algorithm is a useful method which can detect the effective nominal diameters as well as estimate the exact tensile forces of the externally prestressed tendon with an estimation error less than 1% although there is no a priori information about the identification variables. In addition, the validity of the proposed technique is experimentally proved using a scale-down model test considering the serviceability state condition without and with the loss of the prestressed force. The test results prove that the technique is a feasible and effective method that can not only estimate the exact tensile forces and detect the effective nominal diameters but also inspect the damping properties of test model irrespective of the loss of the prestressed force. The 2% error of the estimated effective nominal diameter is due to the difference between the real tendon diameter with a wired section and the FE model diameter with a full-section. Finally, The accuracy and superiority of the proposed technique using the DE algorithm are verified through the comparative study with the existing theories.

Research into optical signal processing using photonic integrated circuits (PICs) has been actively pursued in various fields, including optical communication, optical sensors, and quantum optics. Among the materials used in PIC fabrication, polymers have attracted significant interest due to their unique characteristics. To fabricate polymer-based PICs, establishing an accurate manufacturing process for the cross-sectional structure of an optical waveguide is crucial. For stable device performance and high yield in mass production, a process with high reproducibility and a wide tolerance for variation is necessary. This study proposes an efficient method for fabricating polymer optical-waveguide devices by introducing the atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. Compared to conventional photoresist or metal-film deposition methods, the ALD process enables more precise fabrication of the optical waveguide's core structure. Polyimide optical waveguides with a core size of 1.8 × 1.6 ㎛² are fabricated using the ALD process, and their propagation losses are measured. Additionally, a multimode interference (MMI) optical-waveguide power-splitter device is fabricated and characterized. Throughout the fabrication, no cracking issues are observed in the etching-mask layer, the vertical profiles of the waveguide patterns are excellent, and the propagation loss is below 1.5 dB/cm. These results confirm that the ALD process is a suitable method for the mass production of high-quality polymer photonic devices.
