An analysis of thermal degradation of epoxy based adhesive performed by thermogravimetry tests are presented in this study. Six different heating rates were employed for the weight change measurements. Based on the data, an Arrhenius type modeling equation was developed by calculating activation energies and proportional constants, and $n^{th}$ polynomial function was adopted to predict the weight change rates. The prediction results by the modeling was compared with the data using the average activation energy. It was found that the activation energy at the each heating rate was not same due to the different degradation kinetics, especially at the high heating rate. To overcome this pitfall, a new approach using exponential function series was introduced and employed. The calculation results showed very good agreements with the test data regardless of the heating rates.

This paper presents the long-term behavior of tunnel considering the degradation of concrete lining and surrounding soil. Tunnel is a composite structure which has supporting elements (shotcrete, lining, and rockbolt) and surrounding soils. These supporting elements and surrounding soils undergo the degradation as time goes. A proposed degradation function which has two parameters which control the residual strength and degradation shape was applied to the numerical analysis. The results showed the plastic zone was spread around tunnel due to the degradation leading to the increase in unstability of tunnel.

Rock slope near the road or railroad is affected by the outside temperature and iterative freezing-thawing process during winter and early spring. The purpose of this study is to analyze the stability of rock slope which is iniluenced by deterioration due to the freezing-thawing. Method of analysis is homogenization method which find the strength property of discontinuous rock mass and as a strength failure criterion, Drucker-Prager failure criterion is used, The deterioration property of real rock is obtained by a freezing-thawing labordtory test of tuff and this quantitative property is used as a basic data of stability analysis of rock mass. To evaluate the deterioration depth due to the freezing-thawing in the field rock slope, one dimensional heat conductivity equation is used and as a a result we can find the depth of which is affected by a temperature. After determined the freezing-thawing depth of model slope, the pattern of rock mass strength value of model rock slope which excess the limit of self-load is analyzed.

This paper presents the integrity evaluation method of the windings in cast resin transformers using vertical thermal distribution analysis. The method is the result from comparing the temperature distribution in a sound condition specimen with that in the failure condition specimen layer-shorted by accelerated testing. The temperature distribution was acquisited by a infrared thermography system, and the Arrhenius equation was adopted to the accelerated testing. The proposed method may be available to detect the failures in cast resin transformers.

The computational fluid dynamic analysis has been conducted for the thermo-chemical flow field in an arcjet thruster with mono-propellant hydrazine ($N_{2}H_4$) as a working fluid. Coupled Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and Maxwell equations were used to account for the Ohm heating and Lorentz forces. Hydrazine chemistry and thermal radiation were also incorporated to the fluid dynamic equations by assuming infinitely-fast reactions and optically thick media. In addition to the thermo-physical understandings of the flow field inside the arcjet thruster, results shows that performance indices are improved by amount of $20\%$ in thrust and $200\%$ in specific impulse with the 0.6kW are heating.

The thermoelastic behavior of the porous carbon/phenolic composites is studied using the thermomechanical response model of chemically decomposing composites. The model includes thermal dependence of the porous composites, porosity in the pyrolysis process, pore pressure due to decomposing gases, and shrinkage. The poroelastic coefficients are calculated based on representative volume element model and finite element analysis. The internal stress distribution caused by pores and pore pressure, and the overall deformation are verified. The effects of the poroelastic coefficients on the thermoelastic behavior are examined through numerical experiments.

The initiation and growth processes of cyclic ice body in porous systems are affected by the thermo-physical and mass transport properties, as well as gradients of temperature and chemical potentials. Furthermore, the diffusivity of deicing chemicals shows significantly higher value under cyclic freeze-thaw conditions. Consequently, the disintegration of concrete structures is aggravated at marine environments, higher altitudes, and northern areas. However, the properties of cyclic freeze-thaw with crack growth and the deterioration by the accumulated damages are hard to identify in tests. In order to predict the accumulated damages by cyclic freeze-thaw, a regression analysis by the response surface method (RSM) is used. The important parameters for cyclic freeze-thawdeterioration of concrete structures, such as water to cement ratio, entrained air pores, and the number of cycles of freezing and thawing, are used to compose the limit state function. The regression equation fitted to the important deterioration criteria, such as accumulated plastic deformation, relative dynamic modulus, or equivalent plastic deformations, were used as the probabilistic evaluations of performance for the degraded structural resistance. The predicted results of relative dynamic modulus and residual strains after 300 cycles of freeze-thaw show very good agreements with the experimental results. The RSM result can be used to predict the probability of occurrence for designer specified critical values. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the life cycle management of concrete structures considering the accumulated damages due to the cyclic freeze-thaw using the proposed prediction method.

Deterioration depths of rock slope due to freezing-thawing were calculated using the 1-D heat conductivity equation. The temperature distribution analysis was carried out using temperature distribution data for last two years of the five major cities such as Seoul, Daejeon, Pohang, Gwangju and Cangneung. The analysis was performed based on three different types of rocks, sandstone, granite and gneiss. This study has found that the deterioration depths tend to be greater with the increase of the thermal conductivity coefficient in Seoul, Daejeon and Pohang where showing relatively greater temperature deviations. Regarding the influence of rock types, deterioration depths turned out to be greater in Gwangju and Gangneung where show relatively smaller temperature deviations among the five cities, assuming these cities are on the granite with thermal conductivity of $55,200\;cal/m\timesday\times^{\circ}C$. In contrast, for the other rock types, cities of relatively geater temperature deviations show deeper deterioration depth than the others. Deterioration depths of rock slope in Korea due to freezing-thawing fumed out to be around 8.4 m to 10.7 m.

실험실에서의 파랑생성에 흔히 사용되는 피스톤형 조파장치는 수심에 따라 유속이 동일하게 생성된다는 제약이 있어 주로 천해파의 생성에 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 제약조건 없이 다양한 유속분포의 파형을 생성하는 수직 다열화된 조파장치가 개발되었다. 우선, 수심방향으로 이산화된 각 패들(paddle)의 스트로크에 대해 선형해석해가 유도되었다. 개발된 해석해는 패들의 수 및 유속분포에 따라 기존의 피스톤형 혹은 플랩형 조파장치 해석해로 근사함이 밝혀짐으로써 포괄적으로 활용될 수 있음이 확인되었다. 즉 개발된 해석해를 활용하면 선택적으로 피스톤형 및 플랩형 조파성능이 구현될 수 있다. 더불어 개발된 해석해는 다상유체의 내부파 생성에도 확정되어 적용가능함이 확인되었다. 다음으로, 개발된 조파장치를 수치적으로 구현하였다. 오픈소스 3차원 수치모형인 OpenFOAM 중, 두 개 이상의 불연속 및 비압축 유체에 대한 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 해결하는 수치 모듈을 사용하여 제안된 수직다열화된 조파장치의 성능이 평가되었다. 이때 동적격자모델(olaDyMFlow)을 결합함으로써 개발된 조파장치 움직임이 물리적 조파장치와 흡사하도록 수치적으로 구현하였다. 모의결과, 여러 개의 다열화된 패들이 층류 흐름 조건에서 심해파를 효율적으로 생성시키고, 중간수심 파랑조건에서는 제안된 조파장치가 상대적으로 덜 유리함을 확인할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 공기, 기름 및 물 등 3상의 흐름조건에서 단 두 개의 패들을 활용하여 각각 내부파 및 표면파를 생성하되었으며, 모의 결과는 해석해과 비교됨으로써 개발된 조파장치의 성능이 검증되었다.

The brittle materials like rocks show complicated strain-softening behavior after the peak which is hard to model using the classical constitutive models based on the relation between strain and stress tensors. A kinematically constrained three-dimensional microplane constitutive model is developed for granite. The model is verified by fitting the experimented data of Westerly granite and Bonnet granite. The triaxial behavior of granite is well reproduced by the model as well as the uniaxial behavior. We studied the development of the fracture zone in granite during blasting impact using the model with the standard finite element method. All the results obtained from the microplane model developed are compared to those from the linear elasticity model which is commonly used in many researches and practices. It is found that the nonlinearity of rocks sigificantly affects the results of analysis.
