This paper describes a detailed assessment of the structural safety, serviceability, capacity rating and long-term performance of a glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) slab bridge superstructure. This first all-GFRP slab bridge was installed in Korea on May 2002. The GFRP slab bridge is a simply supported, its length is 10.0 m, and is designed to carry two-lane traffic and has an overall width of 8.0m. The GFRP slab bridge is a sandwich structure with a corrugated core, fabricated by hand lay-up process with E-glass fibers and vinyl ester resins. The assessment of long-term performance for the GFRP slab bridge in 2004, 2011 includes a field load testing identical to that performed in 2002. The assessment indicates that the GFRP slab bridge has no structural problems and is structurally performing well in-service as expected. The assessment may provide a baseline data for the capacity ratings assessment of the GFRP slab bridge and also serve as part of a long-term performance of all-GFRP bridge superstructure.

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.

In this paper, the long-term performance of highway embankment using tire shred-sandy soil mixture as a lightweight fill material was evaluated through the field monitoring and field test programs. A tire shred-sandy soil embankment was constructed to support a four-lane highway in Indiana, which was built with a 50 : 50 volumetric ratio of tire shreds (maximum particle dimension of 76 mm) and sandy soil (SP, USCS). After opening of the road for traffic, no noticeable differential settlement and lateral deformation were observed, and no adverse environmental impact on temperature was detected as a result of the construction of the tire shred-sandy soil embankment. Moreover, FWD test results showed that tire shred-sandy soil mixture provides bearing capacity comparable to that of conventional fill and meets the criterion for a design life of 20 years.

The function of fire barrier penetration sealing is highly important to confine a fire propagation a fire severity within a fire area where the fire started. Especially for the penetration seals at the nuclear power plants with the long-term operated history, it is needed to make it clear that the conformance to the sealing requirements has been proven to guarantee the fire-resistive performance of fire barrier penetration parts. If there are any parts of fire barrier penetration sealing which can not meet the required rating for the fire endurance performance, the relevant parts must be modified to meet regulatory requirements. At this paper, the engineering analysis methodology was established to approximate the fire endurance rating for the fire barrier penetration seals. With this study, the method of engineering analysis to decide fire endurance rating for the fire barrier penetration seals was established and this way can be utilized to check the performance of the fire rating for the penetration seal at the domestic nuclear power plants.

The transition zone between an earthwork and a bridge effect to the vehicle's running stability because support stiffness of the roadbed is suddenly changed. The design criteria for the transition structure on ballast track were not particular in the past. However with the introduction of concrete track is introduced, it requires there is a higher performance level required because of maintenance and running stability. In this present paper, a transition structure reinforced with geosynthetics is suggested to improve the performance of existing bridge-earthwork transition structures. The suggested transition structure, in which there is reinforcing of the approach block using high-tension geosynthetics, has a structure similar to that of earth reinforced abutments. The utilized backfill materials are cement treated soil and gravel. These materials are used to reduce water intrusion into the approach block and to increase the recycling of surplus earth materials. An experiment was performed under the same conditions in order to allow a comparison of this new structure with the existing transition structure. Evaluation items are elastic displacement, cumulative settlement, and earth pressure. As for the results of the real-scale accelerated testing, the suggested transition structure has excellent performance for the reduction of earth pressure and settlement. Above all, it has high resistance the variation of the water content.

저궤도 인공위성 전력계 시스템에서 배터리는 식(eclipse) 기간 동한 부하에 전력 공급을 담당한다. 따라서 배터리는 전체 위성의 수명과 성능을 결정 짓는 가장 중요한 요소이다. 이러한 배터리의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위해, 다이오드를 사용하여 배터리를 병렬로 구성하는 시스템이 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 배터리 병렬 구조 시스템의 성능 검증을 위해 배터리의 충방전 특성을 효율적으로 시뮬레이션 할 수 있는 Functional 모델링의 방법을 제시하고, 그 모델을 배터리 병렬 구조 인공위성 전력계 시스템에 적용하여 배터리 병렬 구조에 의해 생기는 배터리 불균형과 그 원인을 확잉하고 나아가 대안을 제시하였다.

전차와 같은 복잡한 무기체계의 경우 요구성능에 따라 적용되어야 할 기술 및 부품의 원천 확보가 개발성패를 좌우하므로 장기적인 안목에서 무기체계뿐만 아니라 핵심기술과 부품을 확보하기 위한 계획의 수립도 병행되어야 한다. 따라서 정부는 일관성 있는 방위산업정책을 유지하고 업체에게 발전방향과 목표를 명확하게 제시함으로써 업체는 중/장기적인 기술개발을 통해 사용군에서 원하는 시기에 원하는 성능의 장비를 공급할 수 있다. 우리 나라 방산업체들도 세계적인 추세에 발맞추어 높은 시너지 효과를 창출할 수 있도록 방위산업 구조 재편을 모색해야 할 것이다.
