Although the Granular Compaction Pile (GCP) has been used for many decades, several failures still occur such as bulging, shear failure and other phenomena, indicating that more refined study is needed. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the stress concentration ratio for both area replacement ratio and shear strength of soil through literature review and numerical analysis. Numerical analysis using the finite element program ABAQUS has been performed for the composite ground with GCP. The behavior stress and settlement of composite ground have been analyzed for both the area replacement ratio (10~40%) and shear strength of soil (25~75 kPa). As a result of numerical analysis, as the soil strength and area replacement ratio increased, the average stree related coefficient and stress concentration ratio for depth tended to decrease, and stress related coefficient of upper layer tend to decrease equally, but the stress concentration ratio decreased. Therefore, tendency that the value in th upper layer differs from the value in other depths was displayed. Care should be taken because it is possible to make mistakes in designing the entire composite ground with the values measured in the upper layer. Also, the settlement reduction factor was compared with the existing equation and numerical analysis. And the value obatined from the existing equation and numerical analysis are similar.

In this study, the optimization algorithm by inverse analysis that is the core of the adaptive management technique was adopted to update the soil engineering properties based on the ground response during the construction. Adaptive management technique is the framework wherein construction and design procedures are adjusted based on observations and measurements made as construction proceeds. To evaluate the performance of the adaptive management technique, the numerical simulation for the triaxial tests and the synthetic deep excavation were conducted with the Hardening Soil model. To effectively conduct the analysis, the effective parameters among the parameters employed in the model were selected based on the composite scaled sensitivity analysis. The results from the undrained triaxial tests performed with soft Chicago clays were used for the parameter calibration. The simulation for the synthetic deep excavation were conducted assuming that the soil engineering parameters obtained from the triaxial simulation represent the actual field condition. These values were used as the reference values. The observation for the synthetic deep excavation simulations was the horizontal displacement of the support wall that has the highest composite scaled sensitivity among the other possible observations. It was found that the horizontal displacement of the support wall with the various initial soil properties were converged to the reference displacement by using the adaptive management technique.

램제트 엔진은 비추력이 높고 추력 레벨은 낮으므로, 2단 추진기관에 적합한 추진 시스템이다. 1단-추진기관의 작동이 끝나고, 2단 램제트 엔진이 점화 후 안정된 연소에 도달되기까지 비행체의 속도는 항력에 의하여, 초당 약 마하수 0.1 정도씩 감소된다. 1단 연소 후 2단 램제트로 전환되는 지연시간이 길수록 1단에서 요구되는 종말 가속도는 증가되므로, 1단이 차지하게되는 부피는 증가되고 비행체의 크기 또한 늘어나게 된다. 따라서 1단에서 2단 램제트로 천이되는데 소요되는 시간을 가능한 짧게 하는 것이 효과적이다. 그러나 램제트 엔진의 특성상 선결되어야할 다음과 같은 여러 문제들이 있다. 첫째, 1단 작동 시 공기 흡입구와 연소실은 차단벽으로 분리되어 있다가, 1단 연소후 차단막이 제거되어 외부공기가 램제트 연소실로 흡입된다. 흡입되는 공기는 흡입구의 형상에 의하여 램 압축되지만 초음속으로 연소실을 통과하게된다. 연료 주입 구에서 공급되는 연료는 연소실에서 유동의 흐름방향(streamline)에 따라서 연소실로 확산되는데, 연소되기 전에는 유속이 빠르게 노즐로 빠져 나가므로 램제트 연료가 재순환 구역(recirculation zone)으로 침투하는데 쉽지가 않다. 둘째, 연소실 입구에서 발생되는 와류 (ring vortex)는 1단 연료의 고온 연소 가스를 연소실로 확산시키는데, 비 균일한 온도 분포를 유발하여 램제트 연료의 점화에너지가 공급되는 시간이 적당하지 않을 경우 균일한 화염 전파에 악영향을 준다. 셋째, 연소실에서의 빠른 유동 조건은 연료가 연소실에 머무를 수 있는 시간을 감소시키며, 연소실 입구에서 강한 전단 응력이 발생되어 화염이 안정화되는데 악 영향을 미치게된다. 본 논문은 공기 흡입구, 연소실 및 노즐을 통합하여 수치해석을 하였으며 열유동/점화/연소등의 미케니즘을 이해하고, 주요 인자들 중 와류의 영향에 초점을 맞추었다.다고 판단되며 배기 가스 자체에 대기 공기중에 함유되어 있던 습기가 얼어붙는(Icing화) 문제가 발생하기 때문에 배기가스의 Icing을 방지하기 위하여 압축기 끝단에서 공기를 추출하여 배기부분에 송출할 필요성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 출구가스의 기체 유동속도가 매우 빠르므로 (100-l10m.sec) 이를 완화하기 위한 디퓨저의 설계가 요구된다고 판단된다. 또 연소기 후방에 물을 주입하는 경우 열교환기 및 기타 부분품에 발생할 수 있는 부식 및 열교환 효율 저하도 간과할 수 없는 문제로 파악되었다. 이러한 기술적 문제가 적절히 해결되는 경우 비활성 가스 제너레이터는 민수용으로는 대형 빌딩, 산림, 유조선 등의 화재에 매우 적절히 사용되어 질 수 있을 뿐 아니라 군사적으로도 군사작전 중 및 공군 기지의 화재 그리고 지하벙커에 설치되어 있는 고급 첨단 군사 장비 등의 화재 뿐 아니라 대간첩작전 등에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.가 작으며, 본 연소관에 충전된 RDX/AP계 추진제의 경우 추진제의 습기투과에 의한 추진제 물성 변화는 미미한 것으로 나타났다.의 향상으로, 음성개선에 효과적이라고 사료되었으며, 이 방법이 편측 성대마비 환자의 효과적인 음성개선의 치료방법의 하나로 응용될 수 있으리라 생각된다..7%), 혈액투석, 식도부분절제술 및 위루술·위회장문합술을 시행한 경우가 각 1례(2.9%)씩이었다. 13) 심각한 합병증은 9례(26.5%)에서 보였는데 그중 식도협착증이 6례(17.6%), 급성신부전증 1례(2.9%), 종격동기흉과 폐염이 병발한 경우와 폐염이 각 1례(2.9%)였다. 14) 식도경 시행회수는 1회가 17례(54.8%), 2회가 9례(29.0%), 3회 이상이 5례(16.1%)였다.EX>$IC_{50}$/ 값이 210 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$로서 효과적

The performance evaluation of reinforcement concrete structure is carried out as a function of the following performance influencing factors: (1) the strength of concrete, (2) longitudinal reinforcement, (3) transverse reinforcement, (4) aspect ratio, and (5) axial force. With various values of the five parameters, eigenvalue analysis and non-linear static analysis were performed to investigate the structural yield displacement, yield basis shear force, and static performance of ductility ratio. In addition, the performance evaluation is carried out according to the modified capacity spectrum method (FEMA-440) using the results of non-linear static analysis, and the effect of each parameter on performance point is analyzed. Based on the result of eigenvalue analysis and non-linear static analysis indicates, that the natural period and the ductility ratio are affected more by the structural properties than the material properties. In case of the analysis of the criterion of performance points, the effect of section shape is one of the important factors together with natural period and ductility ratio.

In this study, characteristics of the seismic response of the non-earthquake resistant reinforced concrete (RC) frame were identified. The test building is designed to withstand only gravity loads and not in compliance with modern seismic codes. Smooth bars were utilized for the reinforcement. Members are provided with minimal amount of stirrups to withstand low levels of shear forces and the core concrete is virtually not confined. Columns are slender and more flexible than beams, and beam-column connections were built without stirrups. Through the modeling of an example RC frame, the feasibility of the fiber elementbased 3D nonlinear analysis method was investigated. Since the torsion is governed by the fundamental mode shape of the structure under dynamic loading, pushover analysis cannot predict torsional response accurately. Hence, dynamic response history analysis is a more appropriate analysis method to estimate the response of an asymmetric building. The latter method was shown to be accurate in representing global responses by the comparison of the analytical and experimental results. Analytical models without rigid links provided a good estimation of reduced stiffness and strength of the test structure due to bond-slip, by forming plastic hinges closer to the column ends. However, the absence of a proper model to represent the bond-slip poased the limitations on the current inelastic analysis schemes for the seismic analysis of buildings especially for those with round steel reinforcements. Thus, development of the appropriate bond-slip model is in need to achieve more accurate analysis.

Although composite construction has more mechanical advantages compared to noncomposite construction, the design of noncomposite construction for skew bridges with large skew angels has been often checked because composite construction may cause large stresses in the bridge deck. In this study, the analytical model considered dynamic behaviors for noncomposite skew bridges was proposed. Using the proposed analytical model, the validity of the application of noncomposite construction to skew bridges was checked. Also, the effects of interactions between the concrete deck and steel girders such as composite construction, partial composite construction, and noncomposite construction on the dynamic characteristics and dynamic behaviors of simply supported skew bridges were investigated. A series of parametric studies for the total 27 skew bridges was conducted with respect to parameters such as girder spacing, skew angle, and deck aspect ratio. Although the slip at the interfaces between the concrete deck and steel girders results in the reduction of seismic total base shear in the transverse direction due to period elongation, it causes an undesirable behavior of skew bridges by the modification in mode shapes and distributions of stiffness. Shear connectors placed by minimum requirements for partial composite action have an effect on reducing the girder stresses and deck stresses; except case of some skew bridges, the magnitude of the girder stresses and deck stresses obtained from partial composite skew bridges is similar to or slightly more than those acquired from composite skew bridges.

The use of pile reinforcement is considered as one of the most promising techniques for improving load carrying capacity of piles in offshore area. In this study, to consider the horizontal and uplift bearing capacity of submerged breakwater bearing pile, exclusive analysis on load-transfer behaviour of pile was conducted. First of all, check the reinforcing effect from the three-dimensional finite element method, and estimate load transfer curve (ground reaction force). Based on these results, the reinforcing effect was quantified by estimating the coefficients of horizontal and uplift reinforcement of reinforced piles. Load transfer function with consideration of the reinforcing effect was proposed from estimated coefficients. A comparison of the analysis using the proposed load transfer function with three-dimensional finite element analysis has resulted that the proposed load transfer function is displaying good accuracy of predicting behavior of the load transfer between the pile and soil reinforcement. Interpretation of the submerged structure by applying a load transfer function considering the reinforcing effect, has shown that the reinforced pile's shear, bending moment and displacement are less than that of non-reinforced piles, while the subgrade reaction modulus arises greater. Thus, it is expected to be relatively cost effective in terms of design.

In this study, a new methodology fur the assessment of liquefaction potential is proposed and characteristics of the proposed methodology are verified. The experimental parameter of this methodology, that is, the plastic shear strain trajectory, is compared with the dissipated energy. It is shown that this parameter can express the liquefaction behavior which is generated by excess pore water pressure. This methodology takes advantage of the shear strain time history determined from the site response analysis based on the real time history of earthquake. In this site response analysis, shock type and vibration type records of similar predominant frequency are inputted. The liquefaction safely factors based on the proposed methodology and Korean detailed assessment related to the classical method are calculated from the results of the site response analysis and laboratory dynamic tests. Through this study, it is found that the proposed methodology can not only simulate the liquefaction behavior of saturated soils hut also express the seismic characteristics reasonably : leading type, predominant frequency, maximum acceleration, duration time.

In this study, a multi-staged pilot-scale membrane plant was constructed and operated for the separation of $CO_2$ from LNG-fired boiler flue gas of 1,000 $Nm^3/day$. The target purity and recovery ratio of $CO_2$ required for the pilot plant were 99% and 90%, respectively. For this purpose, we previously developed the asymmetric polyethersulfone hollow fibers and evaluated the effects of operating pressure and feed concentration of $CO_2$ on separation performance[1,2]. The permeation data obtained were also analyzed in relation with the numerical simulation data using counter-current flow model[3,4]. Based on these results, we designed and prepared the demonstration plant consisting of dehumidification process and four-staged membrane process. The operation results using this plant were compared with the numerical simulation results on multi-staged membrane process. The experimental results matched well with the numerical simulation data. The concentration and the recovery ratio of $CO_2$ in the final stage permeate stream were ranged from $95{\sim}99%$ and $70{\sim}95%$, respectively, depending on the operating conditions. This study demonstrated the applicability of the membrane-based pilot plant for $CO_2$ recovery from flue gas.

The flexural behavior tests of UHPC segmental U-girder and composite U-girder which has 160MPa compressive strength and 15.4m length were carried out. The test variables are volume fraction of steel fibers and slab over the U-girder. Each U-girder has longitudinal re-bars in web and lower flange. PS tendons which has 2 of 15.2mm diameter in upper flange and PS tendons which has 7 of 15.2mm diameter in lower flange were arranged and prestressed at onetime in U-girder connection stage. Enough strong prestressing force which applied to U-girder due to ultra high performance concrete strength can withstand the self weight and dead load in U-girder stage. By comparison with the brittle behavior of U-girder, composite U-girder showed the stable and ductile behavior. After the construction of slab over U-girder, flexural load capacity of composite U-girder can bear the design load in final construction stage with only one time prestressing operation which already carried out in U-girder stage. This simple prestressing method due to the ultra high strength concrete have the advantage in construction step and cost. The shear key which has narrow space has the strong composite connection between ultra high strength concrete U-girder and high strength concrete slab didn't show any slip and opening right before failure load.
