본 연구는 구강안면동통 중에서 빈번히 나타나는 근육성 동통의 주 원인인 저작근의 과활성으로 유발된 근육의 피로 시에 운동단위전위, 압력통각역치, 근전도 power spectrum의 변화 양상과 이들 척도간의 연관성을 조사하기 위해 시행되었다. 두개하악장애의 병력 및 현증이 없고 정상적인 구치부 교합관계를 가진 평균연령 25.8세인 36명의 정상 성인(남자 26명, 여자 10명)을 대상으로 교근과 전측두근의 지속적인 등길이 수축 전후의 압력통각역치 및 운동단위전위를 측정하였고 인내시간까지의 근수축 동안 근전도 power spectrum을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 지속적인 등길이 수축 후 교근과 전측두근의 압력통각역치는 수축 전에 비해 유의하게 감소하였다. 2. 압력통각역치는 수축 전과 수축 후 모두에서 전측두근이 교근보다 유의하게 높게 나타났으며, 전체적으로 남성이 여성보다 높게 나타나는 양상을 보였으나 성별간의 차이는 전측두근의 수축 후 압력통각역치에서만 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다. 3. 지속적인 등길이 수축말기의 중간주파수는 수축초기에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였고, 전측두근의 수축초기 중간주파수와 수축말기 중간주파수 모두 교근보다 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 4. 교근은 지속적인 등길이 수축 전에 비하여 수축 후의 운동단위전위의 지속시간,진폭, 면적, 상의 4가지 척도에서 유의한 증가를 보였고 전측두근은 진폭을 제외한 나머지 3가지 척도, 즉 지속시간, 면적, 상의 유의한 증가를 보였다. 5. 교근과 전측두근의 지속적인 등길이 수축 전의 압력통각역치와 운동단위전위 척도 사이에는 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계가 없었고 교근에서는 수축 후의 압력통각역치와 운동단위전위의 지속시간, 진폭, 면적, 상 사이에 유의한 상관관계가 존재하였다. 위의 실험결과를 통해 근육피로 검사에 압력통각역치, 근전도 power spectrum 검사 외에 근육수축의 기능적 최소 단위인 운동단위전위의 분석 또한 유용할 수 있고 추후 만성으로 진행된 근막동통환자와 정상 대조군간의 운동단위 수준에서의 비교연구와 근피로에 더욱 민감한 운동단위전위의 다른 척도에 대한 개발과 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

Recently, ultra high performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) having over 180 MPa compressive strength and 10 MPa tensile strength has been developed in Korea. However, UHPFRC represents different material properties with normal concrete (NC) and conventional high performance concrete (HPC) such as a high early age autogenous shrinkage and a rapid dry on the surface, because it has a low water-binder ratio and high fineness admixtures without coarse aggregate. In this study, therefore, to propose suitable experimental methods and regulations, and to evaluate mechanical properties at a very early age for UHPFRC, setting, shrinkage and tensile tests were performed. From the setting test results, paraffin oil was an appropriate material to prevent drying effect on the surface, because if paraffin oil is applied on the surface, it can efficiently prevent the drying effect and does not disturb or catalyze the hydration of cement. From the ring-test results, it was defined that the shrinkage stress is generated at the time when the graph tendency of temperature and strain of inner steel ring is changed. By comparing with setting test result, the shrinkage stress was firstly occurred as the penetration resistance of 1.5 MPa was obtained, and it was about 0.6 and 2.1 hour faster than those of initial and final sets. So, the starting time of autogenous shrinkage measurement (time-zero) of UHPFRC was determined when the penetration resistance of 1.5 MPa was obtained. Finally, the tensile strength and elastic modulus of UHPFRC were measured from near initial setting time by using a very early age tensile test apparatus, and the prediction models for tensile strength and elastic modulus were proposed.

Hot air drying characteristics of six year old cooked ginseng root at temperature ranges of $55{\sim}75^{\circ}C$ under 1.8m/sec air velocity and shrinkages accompained were investigated. Drying time to reach equilibrium moisture content of the root takes from 20 to 30 hours, depending on the subjected drying temperatures and root sizes. Drying curve shows that it has two or three falling stages and drying constant are continuously changed. Higher drying constant was observed both at early and late stages of drying. Shrinkage ratio of length, diameters, surface area and volume of the root were 13.0, 39.8, 47.7 and 68.5%, respectively, after 40 hours dry at $55^{\circ}C$. The most of shrinkage was observed at early drying stage.

In this study, to reduce the hydration heat velocity (HHV) of high-strength mass concrete at early ages, phase change materials (PCM) that could absorb hydration heat were applied, and the changes in autogenous shrinkage were investigated, as well as the relationship between the hydration temperature and autogenous shrinkage. The acceleration of the cement hydration process by the PCM leads to an early setting and a higher development of the compressive strength and elastic modulus of concrete at very early ages. The function of PCM could be worked below the original melting point due to the eutectic effect, while the hydration temperature and HHV of high-strength mass concrete can be decreased through the use of the PCM. A close relationship was found between the hydration temperature and autogenous shrinkage: the higher the HHV, the greater the ultimate autogenous shrinkage.

Concrete guide rail and median barrier are an attached RC member, however they are vulnerable to cracking due to slip form construction and large surface of member. In this study, causes and pattern of cracking are analyzed through assessment and NDT (Non-Destructive Technique) evaluation for concrete guide rail and median barrier on highway structure. For this work, analysis on drying shrinkage and hydration heat are performed considering installation period, and plastic shrinkage is also analyzed considering their environmental conditions. From the evaluation, plastic settlement around steel location, drying/ plastic shrinkage, and aggregate segregation are inferred to be the main causes of cracking in the structures. The crack causes and patterns are schematized and techniques of crack-control are suggested. Furthermore concrete guide rail/ median barrier in the bridge on the sea are vulnerable to cracking at early age so that special attentions should be paid at the stages of material selection and construction.

This study was accomplished to investigate the characteristics of hardening shrinkage and initial creep of epoxy resin concrete depending on the presence of filler. According to the test results, the hardening shrinkage was increased with increment of sLOrage temperature, and the ef¬feel of tempemture on the hardening shrinkage of epoxy resin concrete with 6% filler was more Significant than that of epoxy resin concrete without filler. Also, the initial creep strain was increased with loading times, stress--strength ratio and elastic strain, and the values for opoxy resin concrete with 6 % filler are higher than that for eposy resin concrete without filler.

본 연구에서는 구형기포가 미분형의 upper convected Maxwell 모델을 따르는 유체 내에서 수축할 때의 현상을 이론적으로 해석하였다. 수치해법으로는 Lagrangian 좌표계에서 지배방정식을 유도 사용함으로써 자연스럽게 자유표면을 추적하는 동시에 압력변수도 반복 에 의하지 않고 직접적인 방법으로 계산할 수 있는 Galerkin-유한요소법을 개발사용하였다. 본연구의 결과 유체의 탄성은 변형초기에 충분히 발달치 못하기 때문에 수축을 가속화시키 지만 수축 후기에는 지연시킴을 알 수 있었다. 수축의 속도는 적분형 Maxwell 유체에서 보 다 빠른 것을 알수 있었는데 이는 유체의 정지이력에 의한 것으로 판단되었다, 또한 Maxwell 유체내에서 기포가 수축할 경우 탄성에 의한 반동현상이 나타나며 반동이 점성에 의하여 감쇄될 때의 진폭과 주기는 비례함을 보였다.

The nonlinear humidity distribution occurs due to the moisture diffusion when a concrete is exposed to an ambient air. This nonlinear humidity distribution induces shrinkage cracks on surfaces of the concrete. Because shrinkage cracks largely affect the durability and serviceability of concrete structures, the moisture diffusion in concrete must be investigated. The purpose of this paper is to propose a model of the moisture diffusion coefficient that governs moisture diffusion within concrete structures. To propose the model, numerical analysis was performed with several experiments. Because the moisture diffusion coefficient is changed with aging, especially at early ages, the proposed model includes aging effect by terms of the porosity as well as the humidity of concrete.

The risk of transverse cracking in concrete decks of composite bridges is affected by many factors related to the bridge design, materials, and construction. Among others, the thermal and shrinkage stresses are the most important factors that affect the transverse cracking in early-age concrete decks. The thermal stress at the concrete deck is mainly affected by both ambient temperature and solar radiation. The shrinkage stress at the general strength concrete deck is mainly affected by drying shrinkage and the high strength concrete deck is mainly affected by autogeneous shrinkage. Three-dimensional finite element models of composite bridges were made to investigate the stress due to thermal and shrinkage stress.
