This paper presents the results of a parametric study on the behavior of tunnel face reinforced with horizontal pipes. A series of reduced-scale model tests was carried out to in an attempt to verify previously performed three-dimensional numerical modeling and to investigate effects of reinforcement layout on the tunnel face deformation behavior. The results of model tests indicate that the tunnel face deformation can significantly reduced by pre-reinforcing the tunnel face with longitudinal members and thus enhancing the tunnel stability. In addition, the model tests results compare fairly well with those from the previously performed three-dimensional finite element analysis. Therefore, a properly calibrated three dimensional model may effectively be used in the study of tunnel face reinforcing technique.

In this study, the extinguishing performance evaluation of wetting agent for wood crib was conducted by using a scale model equipment that we designed. To confirm the optimal conditions of the experiment, a test was changed amount of fire extinguishing water and the number of timber. As a result, the discrimination of the fire extinguishing performance was seen only when 20 pieces of wood and the extinguishing water of 100 mL were used. After evaluating the extinguishing performance of domestic and foreign wetting extinguishing agents under these conditions, a reignition was occurred in only when we used water. In addition, the discrimination of extinguishing performance was seen through the temperature distribution according to the time of watering. Based on the results of this experiment, this study is expected to be able to use as a basis on presenting a method of optimized performance evaluation of wetting extinguishing agent.

토석류는 바위, 자갈, 토사 등이 물과 혼합하여 흐르는 재해 현상이다. 근래에 이슈가 되었던 우면산 토석류사태, 춘천시 펜션 토석류재해로 인한 피해로 토석류에 대한 국민적 관심이 높아지게 되었다. 토석류의 피해를 저감하기 위한 대표적 시설로는 사방댐, 링네트, 브레이커시스템 등의 다양한 저감시설이 있다. 2000년 이후 국내에는 사방댐 형태의 토석류 유출저감시설의 설치가 매년 증가하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 사방시설은 표준화된 설계기준에 의해 시공되기 보다는 단순한 검토만을 통해 시공되고 있어 관리적인 측면에서 문제점이 대두되고 있다. 또한 대부분 구조적인 안정성 검토는 이루어지고 있으나 수리적인 특성을 고려한 검토는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수리 실험 연구를 진행하기 위한 실험계획을 수립하고, 수리실험에 사용할 토석류 유출 저감시설 축소모형을 제작하였다. 모형의 제작 방법으로는 최근 다양한 분야에 활용되며, 널리 보급 되고 있는 3D프린터를 이용하였다. 3D프린터는 레이어를 한 장씩 쌓는 과정으로 제작되어 정밀하고 세밀한 모형물을 제작할 수 있다. 이러한 특성을 활용하여 기존에 단순화 시켜 제작되던 모형을 실제와 거의 동일한 형태로 제작하였다. 본 연구에서는 3D 프린터로 제작된 실험용 모형을 이용하여 토석류 유출저감시설의 토석류 저감효과 분석을 위한 기초 수리실험을 수행하였다.

In this study, reduced-scale experiments were conducted to analyze an effect of tunnel slope on critical velocity. The 1/20 scale experiments were carried out under the Froude scaling using ethanol pool fire. Square pools ranging from 2.47 to 12.30㎾ were used experiments. Critical velocity varied with one-fourth power of the heat release rate. As the slope of the tunnel increases the critical velocity comes to be fast due to the increase of the chimney effect.

Experiments and the parametric based on finite element model were conducted to investigate the behavior and strength of a gussettube connection concerned with eccentricity and selenderness ratio. Because of limitations in loading capacity the specimens were fabricated with 1/3 scale of full size. Of primary interest here are the ultimate strength of connections having eccentricity caused by lateral loads. As a result the effect of eccentricity on the buckling strength was examined and the validity of the finite element model adopted in this study was verified through comparing with test results.

This paper presents both of an investigation on the ultimate responses and a verification study on the structural methodology using beam-truss element of steel transmission towers using experimental study. The partially scaled tower which verified with analytical model was fabricated and the horizontal load was applied up to failure in the laboratory. The structural methodology for finite element analyses was verified against experimental results and both the ultimate load capacity and collapse mechanism were shown in the test to give sufficiently accurate results with those of analytical study. It was shown as well that the ultimate failure is primarily attributed to instability of the main posts in the leg parts.

In this study, reduced scale experiments were carried out to evaluate the effect of external wind in a road tunnel fire. Experiments were conducted in a $1.1m{\times}0.5m{\times}50.4m$ tunnel. 4.5 litter gasoline was used as a fuel. Temperature, oxygen and carbon monoxide concentration were measured. Smoke reaching time to the tunnel exit was affected by the external wind. When a fire was fully developed, wind effect is reduced compared with the early stage of a fire. CO concentration was reached at more than 1,500 ppm.

Small area estimation is a statistical inference method to overcome large variance due to a small sample size allocated in a small area. A shrinkage estimator obtained by minimizing relative error(RE) instead of MSE has been suggested. The estimator takes advantage of good interpretation when the data range is large. A semiparametric estimator is also studied for small area estimation. In this study, we suggest a semiparametric shrinkage small area estimator and compare small area estimators using labor statistics.
