In tunnel excavation using blast, the wire saw rock cutting method generates a discontinuity perimeter around the center cut, and thus prevents blast vibration propagation to reduce vibration and noise. Therefore, the method is expected to be easy to use and economical compared with other methods. In this paper, the cutting mechanism of wire saw in tunnel excavation is investigated. A model describing the changes in cutting depth and wire saw shape inside a rock during cutting is established and validated for this purpose. Through a simulation using the model, the important characteristics of wire saw cut are investigated, and the influences of cutting conditions, such as wire saw tension, wire saw speed, feed speed, depth, and diameter of boring, on cutting performance are also examined. A method to improve the cutting performance is proposed based on the results.

Plate armour is an important cultural property that reflects the ancient weaponry and the manufacturing technology of ironware as they are. Among the kinds of iron armour, horizontal plate armour has been very rarely excavated, and there are a few artifacts in their unimpaired shape like the plate armour excavated from Mangisanseong. This report reviews the manufacturing technology of ancient plate armour through its radiograph using appliable nondestructive irradiation and scientific conservation treatment. The seven-tiered plate armour excavated from Mangisanseong has ring hinge to open and shut the right side neck guard. The readout result of radiograph proved iron safety guard of Godaepan (a plate that links neck plate and horizontal plate) and leather safety guard of the right armpit with plate overlap and perforation interval; perforations that seem to have linked shoulder strap on wearing the armour are also observed. In particular, it is identified that the perforation and riveting technique avoided the connection of more than three plates with a rivet. This is an important material to illustrate the best use of function of plate armour overcoming its limit.

The injection of cement stabilizer is used as one of ways to stabilize soft sea-bottom. However, this method makes an argument for the possibility of releasing heavy metals from the cement stabilizer to the seawater. To investigate the effect of the cement stabilizer on the seawater, field measurements were carried out in Ocheon harbor of the Chunsoo Bay. Although the highest concentrations of dissolved heavy metals were found in the surface seawater of the injection point and the metal concentrations decreased with distances, the levels of heavy metals in all the seawater met the demand of environmental criteria of Korea, US and UK.

Storage devices such as memories are widely used in various electronic products. They require high-density memory and currently the data has been stored in multi-level format, that results in high error rate. In this paper, we apply error correction schemes that are widely used in communication system to the storage devices for satisfying low bit error rate and high code rate. In A WGN channel with average BER $10^{-5}$ and $5{\times}10^{-6}$, we study error correction schemes for 4-1evel cell to achieve target code rate 0.99 and target BER $10^{-11}$ and $10^{-13}$, respectively. Since block codes may perform better than the concatenated codes for high code rate, and it is important to use less degraded inner code even when many bits are punctured. The performance of concatenated codes using general feedforward systematic convolutional codes are worse than the block code only scheme. The simulation results show that RSC codes must be used as inner codes to achieve good performance of punctured convolutional codes for high code rate.

An experimental study of composite beam with perforated fiber reinforced polymer(FRP) plank as a permanent formwork and the tensile reinforcement was performed. A combined formwork and reinforcement system can facilitate rapid construction of concrete members since no conventional formwork is needed, which requires time consuming assembly and dismantling. In order for a smooth FRP plank to act compositely with the concrete, the surface of the FRP needs to be treated to increase its bond properties. Aggregates were bonded to the FRP plank using a commercially available epoxy and perforated web of plank. No additional flexural or shear reinforcement was provided in the beams. For comparison, two control specimens were tested. One control had no perforated hole in the web of FRP plank and the other had internal steel reinforcing bars instead of the FRP plank. The beams were loaded by central patch load to their ultimate capacity. This study demonstrates that the perforated FRP plank has the potential to serve as a permanent formwork and reinforcing for concrete beam.

The rock anchorage of a suspension bridge is an outstanding anchorage type from environmental and economical perspective, although it should be applied when the bearing foundation is fresh enough to resist large cable loads. In practice, geotechnical engineers have encountered difficulties in designing the anchorage structure due to the fact that the physical behaviors of rocks against cable loads have not yet been fully proved and its design method was not established yet. In this study, model tests and numerical studies were performed to evaluate the behavior of the rock anchorage system planned under hard rock layers in domestic islands, and results suggest that the shape of asymmetric rock wedges can resist the tension loads with self weight and shear resistance. Additionally, real scale trial tests were carried out to verify the accuracy of an inclined drilling penetrating hard rock layers to install tendon to the bearing plate.

The ground anchor is not usually used in soft clay and loose sand, because the pullout resistance of anchors can not be guaranteed. However, there is a method to increase the capacity of anchors using electric discharge geotechnical technologies, which are also known as pulse discharge and electric-spark technologies. The pulse-discharge anchor has a bulbed (or underreamed) bond length that is expanded by high voltage electrokinetic pulse energy. 24 anchors were installed in the weathered soil and sandy clay at the Geotechnical Experimentation Site at Sungkyunkwan University in Suwon, Korea. In this study, in order to define a relation between expansion rate of the anchor diameter and ultimate load, anchor load tests were carried out in accordance with testing procedures by AASHTO (AASHTO 1990) and FHWA (Weatheb 1998). And then several anchors were exhumed to measure the diameter of the pulse discharge anchors.

대학원생 김모씨(28세 여)는 귀에 갑작스런 통증을 느끼기 시작했다. 또 급격하게 저하된 청력으로 친구들의 말귀를 잘 못 알아들어 '사오정'이라는 별명도 얻게 되었다. 통증이 심해 병원을 찾아간 결과 외상성 고막천공이라는 진단을 받게 되었다. 이는 귀이개가 고막을 관통해 발생한 질병으로 귀이개로 귀를 후비던 중 실수고 너무 깊이 파 통증이 나타나게 된 것이다. 다행이 다른 부위는 손상이 없어 외래에서 간단한 수술 및 통원치료 후 증상은 좋아졌다. 또 직장인 박모씨(34세 남)는 어느 날부터 갑자기 귀에서 고름이 나오고, 고약한 냄새를 풍겨 병원을 찾았는데, 만성 외이도염이라는 진단을 받았다. 원인은 하루가 멀다 하고 귀지를 파내는 오래된 습관 때문이라는 것이다. 습관을 바꾸지 않으면 앞으로 청력도 떨어질 수 있다는 의사의 말에 귀이개부터 멀리하기 시작했다. 고려대 안산병원 이비인후과 조승현 교수는 "종종 속을 썩이는 것이 귀지"라며 "무리하게 후비다가는 고막까지 버릴 수 있으므로 함부로 파서는 안된다"고 지적한다.

본 논문에서는 암굴착시 발파에 의한 암반사면의 균열방지 및 사면안정 재고를 위하여 대 구-포항간 고속도로 건설현장에서 시험발파를 실시하고 그 결과를 분석하여 천공깊이별 안전 발파패턴을 제시하였다. 또한 현지 탄성파 속도를 측정하여 발파에 의해 암반에 미치는 균열상태를 조사한 결과 탄성파속도의 감소가 40 ∼ 53%로서 암반 중에 균열을 발생시킨 것으로 나타났다. 발파진동 계측결과를 분석하여 암반에 균열을 일으킬 수 있는 진동속도 기준을 설정하여 균열권 범위를 추정하였으며 사면의 기하학적 형상을 고려하여 손상대를 최소화 할 수 있는 적정 안전설계 패턴을 제시하였다.

자연채광 성능평가의 연구 방법으로는 현장측정, 축소모형실험, 수학적 알고리즘에 기초한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 등이 있다. 현장측정과 축소모형실험은 비교적 높은 신뢰도를 얻을 수 있는 방법이지만, 변화가 많은 자연광의 특성으로 인해 객관성 있는 측정결과를 얻는 것에 제한적이었다. 인공천공돔(Sky Simulator, Artificial Sky Dome)은 축소모형 실험 시 이러한 문제점의 보완을 위한 평가 시설이며 천공의 상태를 일관성 있게 조정함으로써 보다 객관성 있는 자연채광연구를 실시할 수 있다. 이에 따라 K대학에서는 직경 6[m], 높이 3.7[m]의 인공천공돔을 자체 개발 제작하여 연구에 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 인공천공돔 기존사례에 대한 고찰과 이를 바탕으로 제작된 K대학 인공천공돔의 개요를 소개하고 기본적인 물리량 측정을 통해 인공천공돔의 신뢰성을 검증하고 유용성을 제시하였다.
