Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) method is being used increasingly in geotechnical design practice worldwide, and is expected to completely replace the current Allowable Stress Design (ASD) method in the near future. LRFD has advantages over ASD in that it allows the design of superstructures and substructures at a consistent reliable level by quantification of failure probability based on reliability analysis. At present, resistance factors for cast-in-place piles embedded in rocks are determined by AASHTO only for the intact rock conditions. In Korea, however, most of the bedrocks in which piles are embedded are heavily weathered. Thus, this study will try to determine the resistance factors of heavily weathered rocks (so-called intermediate goo-materials). To this aim, reliability analysis was carried out to evaluate the resistance factors of cast-in-place piles embedded in intermediate geo-materials in Korea. Pile load test data of 21 cast-in-place piles of 4 construction sites were used for the analysis. Depending on the method which calculates the pile capacities, the resulting resistance factors ranged between 0.1 and 0.6.

The resistance bias factors for driven steel pipe piles are evaluated as a part of study to develop the LRFD(Load and Resistance Factor Design) for foundation structures in Korea. The 43 data sets of static load tests and soil property tests performed in the whole domestic area were collected and analyzed to determine the representative bearing capacities of the piles using various methods. Based on the statistical analysis of the data, the Davisson's criterion is proved to be the most reasonable method for estimation of pile bearing capacity among the methods used. The static bearing capacity formulas and the Meyerhof method using N values are applied to calculate the design bearing capacity of the piles. The resistance bias factors of the driven steel pipe piles are evaluated respectively as 0.98 and 1.46 by comparison of the bearing capacities for both of the static bearing capacity formulas and the Meyerhof method. It is also shown that uncertainty of the static bearing capacity formulas is relatively less than that of the Meyerhof method.

초정밀 박막저항을 제조하기 위하여, 3원계 5lwt%Ni-4lwt%Cr-8wt%Si 합금 타겟(Target)을 가지고 DC/RF 마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 박막 저항을 제조하였고. 낮은 저항온도계수(TCR)를 가지는 박막을 만들기 위해 스퍼터링 제조공정의 변화에 따른 박막의 미세구조와 전기적인 특성을 조사하였다. 스퍼터링 제조공정 변수로써 스퍼터링 Power를 변화시켰고. 제조된 박막은 공기 중에서 400[$^{\circ}C$]까지 열처리하였다. 반응압력을 감소시킴에 따라 TCR값은 감소하였고, 기판온도 및 열처리 온도의 증가에 따라 TCR값도 증가하였다. 또한. 저항온도계수값은 DC와 RF의 변화에 따라 +52, -25(ppm/$^{\circ}C$)의 TCR값을 나타냈다 이와 같은 결과로부터 제조공정을 변화시킴에 따라 면저항 및 저항 온도계수의 제어가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

The effect of trimming process to adjust accurate resistance of a thin-film resistor was studied with respect to low temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR) and high precision. The characteristics of a thin-film resistor fabricated by sputtering were investigated depending on trimming condition and annealing temperature. Measured results showed that the characteristic of a thin-film resistor was degraded with increased trimming speed. However, an average resistance deviation and a TCR were improved to $0.26\%$ and 52.77[ppm/K], respectively, through annealing treatment. Also, thin-film resistors with 1 k$\Omega$ and 10k$\Omega$ showed better performance compared to a resistor with 100k$\Omega$. The Optimal trimming speed and annealing temperature were 20mm/sec and 539K, respectively, and under this optimal condition, a thin-film resistor with an average resistance deviation of $0.31\%$ and a TCR of below 10[ppm/K] was obtained.

As a background study to apply the reliability-based resistance factors to the domestic concrete bridge design code, a comparative study is conducted for the design results and the reliability indexes obtained by adopting different resistance factor formats to yield the design strength of concrete structures. The design results which are calculated by applying the section resistance factors of the current domestic design code and the material resistance factors of Eurocode are compared for the concrete beam bridge. The reliability index is calculated by considering the uncertainties involved in material, dimension and strength equation during the design procedure to get the strength of concrete structure. Also, the sensitivity analysis is performed to figure out which design variables have great impact on the reliability index. The resistance factors of the current domestic bridge design code, AASHTO LRFD and Eurocode are applied to the bridge design for flexure and shear strength and the results show that the resistance factors of the domestic code give the largest reliability indexes. It is observed that the probabilistic distribution of the live load makes difference for the reliability index and the yield strength of reinforcing steel and the live load have great impact on the reliability of both flexural and shear strength of concrete beam through the sensitivity analysis.

For the development of load and resistance factor design, reliability analysis is required to calibrate resistance factors in the framework of reliability theory. The distribution of measured-to-predicted pile resistance ratio was obrained based on only the results of load tests conducted to failure for the assessment of uncertainty regarding pile resistance and used in the conventional reliability analysis. In other words, successful pile load test (piles resisted twice their design loads without failure) results were discarded, and therefore, were not reflected in the reliability analysis. In this paper, a new systematic method based on Bayesian theory is used to update reliability indices of driven steel pipe piles by adding more proof pile load test results, even not conducted to failure, to the prior distribution of pile resistance ratio. Fifty seven static pile load tests performed to failure in Korea were compiled for the construction of prior distribution of pile resistance ratio. The empirical method proposed by Meyerhof is used to calculate the predicted pile resistance. Reliability analyses were performed using the updated distribution of pile resistance ratio. The challenge of this study is that the distribution updates of pile resistance ratio are possible using the load test results even not conducted to failure, and that Bayesian updates are most effective when limited data are available for reliability analysis.

This paper describes the method of statistical analysis and its programs for predicting the ship's powering performance. The equation for the wavemaking resistance coefficient is derived as the sectional area coefficients by using the wavemaking resistance theory and its regression coefficients are determined from the regression analysis of the model test results. The equations for the form factor, wake franction and thrust deduction fraction are derived by purely regression analysis of the principal dimensions, sectional area coefficients and model test results. The statistical analyses are performed using the various descriptive statistic and stepwise regression analysis techniques. The powering performance prognosis program is developed to cover the prediction of resistance coefficients, propulsive coefficients, propeller open-water efficiency and various scale effect corrections.

본 연구는 전기비저항 탐사법을 이용한 실내실험의 결과를 활용하여 토양의 수리특성별 지층비저항계수를 산출하여 소유역에 대하여 대략적인 수리지질 특성을 규명하는 방안을 제시하는 것이다. 연구결과, 모래로 구성된 토양층의 경우는 본 실내시험에서 얻어진 지층비저항계수에 따른 공극율 및 수리전도도의 관계를 활용할 수 있으며, 점토가 포함된 토양층의 경우는 표면전도도의 영향으로 측정되는 전기비저항이 실제 측정값보다 낮게 나타나므로 향후 전기이중층 효과를 고려하여 개발하는 경험식의 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

마찰계수는 서로 접촉하여 운동하는 두 물체간의 특성으로 간주되며 일반적으로 상대속도나 작용하중에 별로 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 알려져 있다. 화학적으로나 물리적으로 오염되지 않은 깨끗한 금속간의 마찰실험의 경우, 이 실험이 불활성 가스나 진공내에서 행해질 경우 상당히 큰 마찰저항을 경험하게 되나, 공기중에서의 실험에서는 작은 마찰저항이 기록되어 산화막이나 다른 오염물에 의해 형성된 막이 마찰저항을 감소시킨다고 보고 있다.

Since electrical resistivity of concrete can be measured in a more rapid and simple way than chloride diffusivity, it should be primarily regular quality control of the electrical resistivity of concrete which provides the basis for indirect of quality control of chloride diffusivity during concrete construction. If this is realized, the electrical resistivity of concrete can be a crucial parameter to establish maintenance strategy for marine concrete structures. The purpose of this study is to develop, design and test a surface electrical resistivity measurement protocol. Microstructural affecting factors such as capillary water, porosity, tourtousity, and so on, on the electrical resistivity of concrete were examined taking into account for mixing proportion properties, and hydration stage. This study can provide a non-destructive approach for durability design of marine concrete. From the relationship between electrical resistivity and chloride diffusivity, it is expected that the result is subsequently used as a calibration curve for an indirect control of the chloride diffusivity based on regular measurements of the electrical resistivity during concrete construction.
