In this paper, an integrated analysis model for evaluating the underwater acoustic performance of the multilayered acoustic coatings containing visco-elastic composite layers with hollow glass microspheres is described. The model uses the effective medium theory considering the acoustic scattering and resonance effects of the inclusions. Also, the model incorporates the compressive deformation mechanism associated with hydrostatic pressure. The technique developed in this work was used as the acoustic layer design and performance analysis tools for the practical hull coatings and acoustic baffles in Korean next generation submarines.

Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFT) system is advantageous because it increases the load-carrying capacity without increasing the size of column. However CFT system has many benefits, it is not applied to field generally because of its heavyweight and difficulty of concrete filling method. As a solution to these problems, we proposed concrete filled steel tube column with hollow made by factory-manufactured PC method. The hollow concrete filled steel tube system is expected to obtain the high strength and high capacity of deformation despite it is a lightweight. This study deals with mechanical properties, strength and deformation, of hollow concrete filled steel tube subjected to axial load. 9 specimens were tested to examine mechanical properties closely, and the following results were obtained: All specimens basically showed higher initial rigidity and maximum strength with increased concrete filling rate. And most specimens showed almost linear behavior until around 80% of maximum strength regardless of filling rate, it is estimated that the elastic range is up to a half of the maximum strength which is the yield strength level.

The nano-composite membranes were prepared onto the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes through twice dip-coating known layer-by-layer method. For the first coating, poly(vinylsulfonic acid, sodium salt)(PVSA) and Poly(styrene sulfonic acid)(PSSA) were used with varying the concentration and ionic strength (IS) and the poly(ethyleneimine)(PEI) as the second coating material was fixed at 10,000 ppm and IS = 0.3. To characterize the prepared nano-composite membranes, the permeabilities and rejection ratio were measured for each 100 ppm NaCl, $CaSO_4$, $MgCl_2$, and 25 ppm MO aqueous solution. The rejections were increased as the concentrations of coating materials increased. And it was confirmed that the salt rejections for PSSA as the coating material were higher than for PVSA. Typically, the permeability, 1.848 LMH and the rejection for MO 76.3% were obtained at the coating conditions of PSSA 30,000 ppm and I.S = 1.0.

This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of submerged hollow fiber MF processes to treat secondary wastewater for water reuse. Specifically, membrane productivity and filtrate water quality were investigated under various operating conditions (i.e. flux, recovery, and backwash rate) at pilot-scale. Membrane fouling became more severe with increasing flux and recovery, suggesting that low flux operation (< 25 LMH) was desirable. At high flux operating(> 37.5 LMH), increasing backwash rate showed only limited success. The biofouling, quantified by PEPA and BFHPC, was also significant in wastewater reclamation, and biogrowth control by chlorine, were necessary to improve membrane productivity. Filtrate water qualities are in good compliance with water reuse regulations regardless of operating conditions (flux, recovery and backwash rate). Particle (e.g. turbidity) removal ranged from 89 to 98%, while only 11 to 21% of organics (e.g. NPDOC) were removed by MF membrane. Only small improvement in biostability (e.g. AOC) was achieved by MF system, and thus, without post disinfection, significant microorganisms might be present in the filtrate due to regrowth. Lastly, in order to further investigate pathogen removal, controlled microbial challenge tests were performed by monitoring Giardia, Cryptosporidium, bacteria and virus, and showed relatively good microbial removal.

Recently, a great progress has been made in bridge construction technology through the development of high performance materials and new structural types. However, most of attention has been paid to the cast-in-place technologies and material cost saving. The cast-in-place method is always subject to some environmental damages in construction sites, which frequently causes conflicts with residents. To overcome the disadvantages, a lot of fabrication construction method was developed. Most fabrication construction methods developed up to now have been applied for superstructure of bridges. In contrast, such fabricable methods developed for substructures are extremely rare. A fabricated column using ICH CFT(Internally Confined Hollow CFT) column was developed in a series of previous researches. Included in the previous studies are design and construction methods for the precast segmental coping, the column-coping connection, the column-segment connection, column-foundation connection. In this paper, seismic performance of the fabricated ICH CFT columns was extensively investigated experimentally. Two test specimens were prepared depending on the connection methods of segments; one by mortar-grouting method and the other by reinforcement method using stiffeners.

This paper presents the IR-Lamp test results of evaluating heat protection performance and measuring of mechanical/thermal properties in the heat protection material of missile external surface. The results showed that increasing the contents of microballoons improved the heat protection performance, but the mechanical properties were deteriorated. Among the kinds of microballoons, Epoxy/Phenolic Microballoons mixture showed the best mechanical properties and low thermal conductivity. Epoxy/Cork mixture showed the best heat protection in the IR-Lamp test, though it has low mechanical properties and high thermal conductivity.

관이음부는 다양한 장점을 가지고 있어 여러 분야에 널리 이용되며, 관이음부의 구조강도를 증가시키기 위해 내부에 환보강재를 설치하는 방법이 대형 강관구조물에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나 환보강 관이음부의 해석 및 설계 자료에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이므로, 보강재의 기하학적 특성과 정적강도와의 관계를 규명하고자 한다. 환보강 K형 관이음부의 정적강도에 대하여 수치적으로 검토하기 위해 원형 중공단면의 관이음부를 유한요소 모델링하였고, 각 부재의 직경, 두께 및 폭의 상관관계를 이용한 무차원 계수를 통해 보강재의 위치와 기하학적 형상에 따른 보강효과를 수치적으로 검토하였다.

In case of the concrete is poured into the HPC(Hollow Precast Concrete) column, the shrinkage condition of the HPC surface and the infilled concrete may be different, causing an interfacial space and deteriorating the integration performance. In this study, manufacturing HPC column mold and and the drying shrinkage properties with the charging concrete were examined. As a result, case of the shrinkage reducing agent showed the best drying shrinkage reduction effect. In the case of the expansive agent, the length change was lower than that of plain, but the difference from the shrinkage reducing agent was large, so it is considered that mixing condition of expansion mixing condition should be improved.

It is known that a key limiting factor to the use of ultrafiltration membranes is that of membrane fouling, which has been a major cause of permeate flux reduction. In this work, the effects of several factors (operating time, protein concentration, temperature and pH, etc.) influencing permeate flux during ultrafiltration of gelatin, casein and bovine serum albumin using a hollow fiber membrane(M. W. 10,000 cut off) reactor have been examined. The permeate flux of gelatin solution was maintained almost constant during the operation up to 6 hours, but those of casein and albumin solutions were decreased to 50% and 43% of initial value after an operation time of 60min. The permeate flux with increasing concentration and temperature of protein solutions increased, but the permeate flux showed a minimum value near the isoelectric point of proteins. The permeate fluxes of protein solution were enhanced by a temperature increase and pH control. Also, it is proposed that fouling can be decreased by the pretreatment of insoluble proteins with enzymes.
