The objective of this study is to provide the information on the manufacturing and exper- , ructures. imental techniques of small scale modeling of precast concrete(P.C.) large panel :-t The ad~~pted scale was one-fifth. 4 types of experiments were performed : nlaterial tests for model concrete and model reinforcement, compressive test of horizontal joint, shear test of vertical joint and cyclic static test of 2-story subassemblage structure. Based on the experimental results, the following conclusions are drawn : i 1) Model concrete had in general larger compressive strength than expected. (2) Model reinforcement showed less ductility if the annealing processes were performed without using vaccuum tube. 131 Failure niotles of horizontal and vertical joints were almost same for both prototype and model. But the strength of model appears to be higher than required by similitude law. (41 Hysteretic behavior of 1 /T, scale subassemblage model can be made quite similar to that of prototype if the ductility of model reinforcement and compressive strength of model concrete could be representative of those of prototype.

Urokinase (UK), a thrombolytic enzyme used to clear catheters obstructed by blood clots, can be also used industrially in the recombinant protein purification system to cleave a fusion protein linked with a certain fragment of GST. We have immobilized UK by covalent attachment to activated Sepharose 6B-Cl gels and evaluated its performance to cleave a fusion protein of hGH and GST. The Sepharose gels were activated by etherification with glycidol (2,3-epoxypropanol) and further oxidized with periodate resulting in glyceryl-Sepharose gels. After the activation treatment, surface density of the aldehyde groups was 7-30 $\mu$mol-aldehde/mL-gel. Immobilization yield was higher than 99% at high pH (10.5), and the immobilized UK maintained ca. 80% specific activity of the soluble UK. In a column reaction the cleavage yield heavily depended on the feed rate, and it was nearly 86% of that from soluble UK. And the immobilized UK was successfully regenerated by unfolding and refolding with 6M GuHCl. After cleavaging reaction, the monomeric hGH was purified by using expanded bed adsorption chromatography.

Based on the case study on the causes for the failure of cutting slope composed of weathered rock and soil, the factors influencing the design of a cutting slope have been examined, This type of rock and soil is widely distributed on the region whose parent rock is granite. To analyze the stability of the cutting slope, the following series of progress has been conducted: (1) ground characterization by geological survey and ground investigation, (2) the safety factor examination by limit equilibrium analysis and numerical analysis and (3) the comparison and analysis of rainfall and failure history. As a result, the main factors to cause the failure is determined to be the decrease of shear strength in the upper parts whose ground condition is weakened during localized heavy rain. Moreover, the analysis indicates the failure is also closely related to the groundwater inflow path. On the base of this investigation, a reinforcement method is proposed to ensure the stability of the cutting slope.

Transient response of a crack in a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) interface layer between two dissimilar homogeneous piezoelectric layers under anti-plane shear is analyzed using integral transform approaches. The properties of the FGPM layer vary continuously along the thickness. Laplace and Fourier transforms are used to reduce the problem to two sets of dual integral equations, which are then expressed to the Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Numerical values on the dynamic energy release rate (DERR) are presented for the FGPM to show the effects on electric loading, gradient of the material properties, and thickness of the layers. Computed results yield following conclusions: (a) the DERR increases with the increase of the gradient of the material properties of the FGPM layer; (b) certain direction and magnitude of the electric impact loading impedes crack extension; (c) increase of the thickness of the FGPM layer and the homogeneous piezoelectric layer which has larger material properties than those of the crack plane are beneficial to increase of the resistance of transient fracture of the FGPM layer.

하천시설물 설계, 시공 및 관리에 재료에 따른 호안이나 제방의 보호능력이 저하되어 설계 시 예상하지 못한 조건에서 쉽게 파손될 수 있으며, 하천환경의 변화를 야기시킬 수 있다. 제방 표면재료는 제외 비탈면의 침식 방지를 목적으로 사용되는 재료로 주로 호안블록. 식생 매트, 사석, 돌망태, 식생등이 주로 사용되며 국내에서는 2000년대 이전에는 자연 흙사면의 식생, 돌망태, 단순 돌기형 콘크리트 블록 등이 주로 사용되었으며 2000년대 이후에는 하천환경을 고려하여 식생의 생장이 가능한 친환경 호안 블록 및 식생 매트의 적용이 일반적인 실정이다. 제방의 수리적 설계를 위해서는 표면 재료의 수리 특성, 즉, 조도계수 및 한계 유속, 한계 소류력이 제시되어야 하는데 이는 실험을 통해서 결정되어야 한다. 때문에 본 연구에서는 자연형 하상재료를 이용하여 바이오 폴리머 첨가시 증가하는 방어능력에 대한 향상도를 평가하는 실험적 평가 방법을 제안하기위해 홍수시 수리조건을 반영하여 상류에서부터 사류까지 다양한 유속범위에 따른 세굴 및 침식에 대한 실험을 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 실험연구를 통해 연구에 사용된 재료 외 추가적인 재료에 대해서도 평가방법이 적용될 수 있도록 제방 재료의 안정성 평가시스템을 개발하였고, 안정성 평가를 위한 실험진행은 기 개발된 바닥응력을 직접측정하는 장치와 PIV시스템을 이용하여 수리특성을 측정하였다.(Park J.H. et al. 2016, Flow Measurment and instrumentation.) 이러한 측정 장치를 이용하여 바이오폴리머의 첨가에 유무에 따라 세굴에 대한 방어능력의 향상정도를 측정하고자 세굴 및 침식에 대한 평가 방법을 제시하고 있다.

In this study, trim tabs were attached to end of stern hull of a small high-speed vessel of length approximately 10 m and Froude number 1.0 to improve resistance performance and passenger comfort. Before computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to assess the performance according to various geometries of the trim tab, the scale effect had been found through a previous study, so full-scale simulations were performed. The trim tab chord length was set to 0.5 %, 1.0 % and 1.5 % of L_PP, and its angle to base line was varied in intervals of 5°. It decreased trim by stern and flotation: the greater the angle and length, the greater was the effect. Then it had pressure resistance decreased and shear resistance increased, and reduction ratio of total resistance varied accordingly. The results of this study indicated that the resistance performance was improved about 27 % at optimal running attitude that was the trim by stern about 1.5°.

This paper describes the applicability of FEA(Finite Element Analysis) to the simulation of pile pullout behavior under various soil conditions (relative density and fines content), in order to evaluate reasonably the pullout resistance of pile. That is, the results of previous research (You et al., 2018) were analyzed by FEA under the same conditions. The FEA results showed that axisymmetric analysis using virtual ground was able to evaluate the skin friction of the pile. Also, axisymmetric analysis, which can apply the shear resistance characteristics of the pile-soil interface in various soil conditions, could be used as an analytical method that can simulate a reasonable pile pullout behavior. Therefore, the analytical model proposed in this study was able to simulate appropriately the pullout behavior based on the stress-strain relationship of the pile-soil interface.

Most of weather radar systems are used to monitor the whole weather situation for the very wide and medium-to-long range area. However, as the likelihood of occurrence of the local weather hazards is increased in recent days, it is very important to detect these wether phenomena with a local weather radar. For this purpose, it is necessary to detect the fast varying low altitude weather conditions and the effect of the ground surface clutter is more evident. Therefore, in this paper, the newly suggested method is explained and analyzed for detection of weather hazards such as the gust and wind shear using the fluctuation of wind velocities and the gradient of wind velocities among range cells. It is shown that the suggested method can be used efficiently in the future for faster detection of weather change through the simple algorithm implementation and also the effect of the ground clutter can be minimized in the detection procedure.

To assess the stability of a slope and the likelihood of its loss or collapse requires information about the ground, such as the composition of the stratum and its mechanical characteristics. This information is generally gathered through standard penetration testing (SPT) and cone penetration testing. SPT is not widely used due to problems with accessing slopes, most of which are steep and without ramps. A drop cone penetrometer, a portable device that can make up for these shortcomings, can be used in a limited way in some circumstances. Therefore, we developed a portable drilling machine and a small dynamic cone penetration test module that can easily access a slope site and perform SPT. The correlation of the developed system's results with those from SPT was analyzed. Analysis of the correlation between the energy shear rate passing to the load during the different test types established that the energy shear rate is reflected in the test result. The correlation between corrected dynamic cone penetration testing and corrected SPT was N_d' = 3.13 N'.

The Mechanical and drying characteristics of Pinus densiflora wood, which was damaged by forest fire, and sound wood were examined. There were no significant differences in axial compressive properties, shearing strength and impact bending absorbed energy between damaged and sound woods. But the bending properties of damaged wood were slightly higher than those of sound wood. The green moisture content of sapwood in damaged wood was lower than that in sound wood, but oven-drying rate was similar in both woods. Number of initial check in damaged wood was smaller than that in sound wood, and inner check in damaged and sound woods was not observed. Consequently, it is considered that mostly damaged wood by forest fire can be used for wood material after removing the bark.
