태양광열 복합 시스템(photovoltaic/thermal hybrid solar system, PV/T)은 태양광 모듈 및 태양열 집열판의 단일화를 통한 전기 및 열에너지의 동시 생산이 가능하도록 구성되고 기존 태양광 모듈의 온도 상승에 따른 효율 저하의 문제점을 보완 및 발생하는 열을 회수하여 온수 생산이 가능한 장치이다. 본 연구에서는 액체형 PV/T 시스템의 대표적인 두 형태인 박스형과 튜브형의 성능 검증을 위하여 수학적 모델링을 통한 두 시스템의 열 및 전기적 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 모델링은 에너지 평형식을 이용하여 시간에 따른 각 부분의 온도의 변화를 예측할 수 있도록 수립되었으며 계산된 결과를 기준으로 전기, 열, 및 전체효율을 도출해 내고, 이를 바탕으로 두 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로, 박스형 PV/T 시스템의 최고 온수 온도는 $52^{\circ}C$로 예측되었고, 반면에 튜브형은 $48^{\circ}C$에 머물렀다. 또한 열효율은 박스형이 최대 51%, 튜브형이 41%, 전기효율은 박스형이 약 14%, 그리고 튜브형이 13%로 나타났으며, 전체효율은 박스형이 73%, 그리고 튜브형이 64%로 나타나 박스형 PV/T 시스템이 튜브형보다 더 나은 성능을 가지는 것으로 예측되었다. 이는 박스형이 튜브형보다 태양광 모듈과 온수와의 접촉면적이 넓어 더 많은 열전달이 발생하기 때문으로 사료된다.

Eutrophication and shortage of phosphate ore raise the necessity of phosphate removal and recovery from wastewater treatment plants. Especially, a sludge treatment system containing highly concentrated phosphate should be targeted for phosphate removal and recovery. This study thus aimed to evaluate the capability of the struvite crystallization process for phosphate removal and recovery from a sludge treatment system of a wastewater treatment plant. Analysis on phosphate concentrations and masses in the sludge treatment system revealed that digested sludge and centrate have phosphate concentrations and masses, high enough to adopt the struvite crystallization process. Chemical equilibrium modeling indicated that the struvite crystallization reaction substantially occurred with pH higher than 8 and $Mg^{2+}$ concentration 1.2 times higher than its theoretical requirement. A series of batch tests with digested sludge and centrate indicated that the phosphate removal reaction by struvite crystallization followed a first-order kinetics and reached over 80% removal efficiency at equilibrium. Aeration in the batch tests was found to purge $CO_2$ in sludge or centrate and increase pH up to 8.7, without adding NaOH. Thus, we concluded that the struvite crystallization process could be an efficient and economical process for phosphate removal and recovery from a wastewater treatment plant.

To design the safe and rational rock slope, several rock slopes of roads in Kang-won area were analyzed, and the following results were obtained ; 1. The results were analyzed by stereographic projection at the rock slope that the joint was developed. All of the sloped which were designed by standard slope of rock was not considered that the joints were unstable. 2. The relation of rainfall and slope failure, as well as the danger of failure, was very high when the maximum hourly rainfall was larger than 20mm and when there was a 2-day cumulative rainfall that was larger than 200mm. 3. In the design of rock slope, operated by the stereographic projection considering discontinuity. If turn out unstable, it should be analyzed carefully using the limit equilibrium method. 4. In the design of rock slope, it is desirable to consider the discontinuity of rock(joint, bedding, fault).

태풍 루사나 매미에 의한 피해사례를 보면 하천 횡단 구조물 본체가 파괴되는 피해 뿐 만 아니라, 구조물과 제방과의 연결부가 세굴되어 붕괴되는 사례가 많이 발생하였다. 하천설계기준(2009)에는 이러한 보와 제방의 연결부 부분을 연결호안이라 하여 관련 기준을 제시하고 있으나, 설치구간의 길이를 정할 때 하천의 규모나 하도의 특성을 고려하지 못하고 일률적으로 결정하도록 하고 있다. 이에 건설기술연구원에서는 상류 Froude 수와 보 높이를 변수로 하는 연결호안 설치 길이에 대한 실험식(2006)을 제시하였다. 하지만 보 접속부 세굴에 영향을 주는 인자는 상류의 Froude 수와 보의 높이 뿐만 아니라, 상 하류 수위차, 보의 형상, 제방의 재료적 특성 등 많은 요인들이 존재한다. 이 중 본 연구에서는 상 하류 수위차와 보 접속부 세굴 범위의 관계를 파악하고자 한다. 보 접속부 세굴에 대한 수치모의에 앞서 Gill(1972)와 Dongol(1990)이 수행하였던 교대세굴 자료를 바탕으로 Flow-3D의 세굴에의 적합성 및 적용성을 검토하였다(그림 2참고). 검토 결과 수치모의의 입력 변수를 조정함으로써 실험값과 가깝게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 이렇게 조정된 변수를 이용하여, 보 접속부 세굴에 대한 수치모의는 상 하류의 수위차에 대해 다양한 검토를 하기 위해 상류의 수위를 1.0m로 고정한 채하류부의 수위를 0.2~0.8m까지 0.1m간격으로 변화시켰으며, 유사의 대표 입경은 0.63mm로 주문진 표준사를 가정하였다. 모의 시간은 평형세굴심이 발생할 때까지 수행하였고, 난류모델로는 LES(Large Eddy Simulation)를 채택하였다. 모의 결과 상 하류 수위차가 증가할수록 보 하류부 세굴 길이($L_d$)가 증가 하였으며, 세굴의 폭($B_d$) 역시 증가하였다. 그림 3은 수치모의 결과로 세굴이 발생된 제방의 모습을 도시한 것이다.

A probabilistic analysis of slope stability is an appropriate solution in dealing with uncertainty in problems related to engineering geology. In this study, a Monte Carlo simulation was performed to evaluate the performance function that is Barton's equation. A large number of randomly generated values were obtained for random variables, and the performance function was calculated repeatedly using randomly generated values. A previous study provided information of slope geometry and the random characteristics of random variables such as JRC and JCS. The present approach was adopted to analyze two failed slopes. The probabilities of failure were evaluated for each slope, and sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the influence of each random variable on the probability of failure. The analysis results were then compared with the results of a deterministic analysis, indicating that the probabilistic analysis yielded reliable results.

The relationship between weight reduction and rehydration of dehydrofrozen potato was determined. At initial stage of dehydration sliced potato lost moisture rapidly. After drying for 2 hours weight reduction of sliced potato was 56% for Superior var., and 55% for Irish Cobbler. The empirical drying equations were obtained as follows: ${\frac{M-M_e}{M_o-M_e}}={\exp}(-0.4487\;{\theta}^{1.2328})$ and ${\frac{M-M_e}{M_o-M_e}}={\exp}\;(-0.4951\;{\theta}^{1.1949})$ for Irish Cobbler and Superior, respectively, where $M_o$, $M_e$, and M are dry base moisture content(%) of initial, equilibrium and at time ${\theta}$ in hour, respectively. With the decrease of weight above 50%, the rehydration rate decreased sharply and the color index L value also decreased while a and b increased. Lightness of dehydrofrozen potato decreased slightly and rehydration rate remained constant during storage at $-18^{\circ}C$. The sulfite treatment led to increase of L value and decrease of a and b values.

Understanding the behavior of pollutants in the marine environment is essential for coping with the marine pollution problems such as eutrophication. In this study, the effects of environmental parameters on phosphorus release from marine sediment to sea water were investigated. The environmental parameters such as pH in the range of 7 to 9, temperature from 10 to 20C and dissolved oxygen levels (DO) renging 0.7 to 7.0mg/L were examined. Phosphorus release data were taken from batch tests excluding biotic effects, and analyzed using a first-order kinetic model. The effects of environmental parameters were quantified using a statistical methodology. High pH, high temperature, and low DO increased phosphorus release from the sediment to sea water. pH from 7 to 9, temperature from 10 to $20^{\circ}C$, or DO from 7.0 to 0.7 mg/L magnified the equilibrium phosphorus concentration up to 2~3 times.

In this study, adsorption characteristics of expanded graphite (EG) were investigated by a series of batch adsorption tests using p-Xylene as a model volatile organic compounds (VOCs). After acid treatment, graphite were expanded at various temperature from $600^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$ for one minute. The optimal temperature was $800^{\circ}C$, where the expansion ratio reached 195 times of original volume. The BET specific surface area of EG was $92.4m^2/g$, which was only 1/10 of granular activated carbon (GAC), however the adsorption of p-Xylene by EG was almost completed within 5 minutes while that of GAC continued for 7 days because the majority of pores of EG was consisted with meso- and macro-pores. According to the Langmuir isotherm analysis, the maximum specific adsorption of p-Xylene onto EG was 24.0 mg/L with the adsorption constant of 7.94. In conclusion, the adsorption capacity of EG was much less than that of GAC due to the significantly lower specific surface area, but the first order kinetic constant was more than 500 times larger than GAC. Overall, EG might be effective where the fast adsorption is required.

This study addresses the preliminary results of rock slope stability analyses including hazard assessments for slope failure conducted on the selected sections of rural road cut slope which are about 4 km long. The study area is located in the Mt. Chuntae northeast of Busan and mainly composed of Cretaceous rhyolitic ash-flow tuff', fallout tuff, rhyolitc and andesite. The volcanic rock mass in the area has a number of discontinuities that produce a potentially unstable slope, as the present cut slope is more than 70 degrees in most of the slope sections. Discontinuity geometry data were collected at selected 8 scanline sections and analyzed to estimate important discontinuity geometry parameters to perform rock slope kinematic and block theory analyses. Kinematic analysis for plane sliding has resulted in maximum safe slope angles greater than $65^{\circ}$ for most of the discontinuities. For most of the wedges, maximum safe cut slope angles greater than $45^{\circ}$ were obtained. Maximum safe slope angles greater than 80" were obtained fur most of the discontinuities in the toppling case. The block theory analysis resulted in the identification of potential key blocks (type II) in the SL4, SL5, SL6 and SL8 sections. The chance of sliding taking place through a type ll block under a combined gravitational and external loading is quite high in the investigated area. The results support in-field observations of a potentially unstable slope that could become hazardous under external forces. The results obtained through limit equilibrium slope stability analyses show how a stable slope can become an unstable slope as the water pressure acting on joints increases and how a stable slope under Barton's shear strength criterion can fail as the worst case scenario of using Mohr-Coulomb criterion.

This paper presents an analytical model for evaluation of crack widths in structural concrete members. The model is mathematically derived from the actual bond stress-slip relationships between the reinforcement and the surrounding concrete, and the relationships summarized in CEB-FIP Model Code 1990 are employed in this study together with the assumption of a linear slip distribution along the interface at the stabilized cracking stage. With these, the actual strains of the steel and the concrete are integrated respectively along the embedment length between the adjacent cracks so as to obtain the difference in the axial elongation. The model is applied to the test specimens available in literatures, and the predicted values are shown to be in good agreement with the experimentally measured data.
