Fiber orientation effects on the impact surface fracture of the glass plates coated with the glass fiber/epoxy lamina layer were investigated using a small-diameter steel-ball impact experiment. Four kinds of materials were used: soda-lime glass plates, unidirectional glass fiber/epoxy layer(one ply, two plies)-coated, crossed glass tiber/epoxy layer (two plies)-coated glass plates. The maximum stress and absorbed fracture energy were measured on the back surface of glass plates during the impact. With increasing impact velocity, various surface cracks such as ring, cone, radial and lateral cracks appeared near the impacted site of glass plates. Cracks in the plate drastically diminished by glass fiber coating. The tiber orientation guided the directions of delamination and plastic deformation zones between the tiber layer and the glass plate. Impact surface-fracture indices expressed in terms of the maximum stress and absorbed energy could be used as an effective evaluation parameter of the surface resistance.

Rock fragmentation technique by cutter penetration has widely been used in the mechanical tunnel excavation. Microcracks propagate and interact because of locally concentrated high stress induced by cutter penetration. which is caused by heterogeneity of rocks. In this study Weibull distribution function and degradation index are used to consider the strength heterogeneity of a rock and the degradation of rock properties after failure. Through the numerical analyses, it is shown that the lateral pressure has an important influence on the rock fragmentation. In the single cutter penetration, large chips are formed as lateral pressure increase. The cutter spacing is also an important factor that affects the rock fragmentation in the double cutter penetration. The fragmentation efficiency of the double cutter penetration is better when cutter spacing is 70 mm than 40 mm and 100 mm. From the results, it is expected that this study can be applied to a TBM tunnel design by understanding of chipping process and mechanism of rock due to cutter penetration.

치아우식중은 치아조직의 결손을 초래하는 치아경조직 질환으로 당분 함량이 많은 식품을 섭취시 치태 내 균인 Streptococcus mutans에 의해 많은 양의 dextrin이 생성되어 치아표면에 붙을 수 있는 끈적한 덩어리를 제공하고 치태 내에서 생성된 산이 치질 파괴에 계속적으로 작용하여 치아 우식을 유발하게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 아동이 즐겨먹는 간식품들을 대상으로 치아우식증을 유발시키는 여러 가지 요인들을 분석하여 치아우식 유발지수 측정법 개발에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. (중략)

본 연구에서는 화강토 지반상의 자립식 diaphragm wall의 거동을 연구하기 위하여 벽체의 근입깊이비, 지하수위 및 굴착조건(연속 및 단계굴착)을 변화시키면서 원심모형시럼을 수행하였다. 원심모형실험시 지반굴착은 흙과 동일한 밀도로 혼합된 zine chloride 용액이 배수되도록 밸브를 조작하여 실시하였으며, 굴착에 의해 발생되는 지반의 변형괴 벽체의 변위 및 휨모멘트를 시간경과에 따라 측정하였다. 실험결과, 벽체의 근입깊이비가 증가함에 따라 벽체의 휨모멘트는 증가하는 반면, 굴착과정동안 배면측에서의 간극수압 감소속도는 감소하였다. 최종 굴착단계에서 굴착후 시간경과에 따른 침하량은 굴착과정중의 침하？에 비해 5~7% 정도를 나타내었다. 최대표면침하량과 벽체변위를 굴착깊이로 정규화한 결과 최대 침하량은 벽체 변위량의 0.8~1.2배9평균0.91배)사이에 분포하였다. 굴착깊이로 전규화한 벽체변위와 근입깊이와의 관계는 지수함수식으로 제안하였다. 파괴면은 직선적인 형태로 파괴면내의 배면측 지반은 벽체를 향하여 하향의 변위를 일으키면서 벽체의 회전에 의해 파괴되었으며, 퐈괴면의 각도는 66~72.5$^{\circ}$정도로 이론적인 파괴면의 각도보다 크게 평가되었다.

Slopes are commonly formed both above and below roads located in mountainous terrain and along riversides. The Buk-sil site, a cut slope formed below the road, collapsed in October, 2010. A field investigation determined the causes of failure as improper drainage of valley water from the slope above the road and direct seepage of road-surface water. These factors may have accelerated the collapse via complex interaction between water and sub-surface structures such as bedding. Projection analysis of the site showed the possible involvement of plane, wedge, and toppling failure. Safety factors calculated by Limit Equilibrium Analysis for plane and wedge failure were below the standard for wet conditions. The wetness index, analyzed using topographic factors of the study area, was 9.0-10.5, which is high compared with the values calculated for nearby areas. This finding indicates a high concentration of water flow. We consider that water-flow control on the upper road is crucial for enhancing slope stability at the Buk-sil site.

부적정한 도로포장 구조물의 설정 및 유지보수의 적정관리 미흡으로 표면의 피해와 소성변형이 장기간 발생된다. 이로 인한 가요성 통제 구조물의 파괴 원인은 일반적으로 포 장재료의 동질성, 선형탄성 상태의 가정 하에서 분석되었다. 그러나 아스팔트 재료의 특성은 엄밀히 분석해서 완전한 선형탄성이라고는 볼 수 없음은 잘 알려져 있다. 따라서 근본적으 로 포장체의 수명과 파양 예측에 오류 발생가능성이 높다 하겠다. 금번 연구는 이와 같은 종전의 경험적인 선형탄성 방법이 아닌 탄성일소성 상태하의 격자(mechano-lattice) 이론이란 새로운 기법을 도입하였다. 특히 마이너(Miner's Law) 이론의 누적손실과 확률을 적용하여 포장체의 피노수명과 손실을 예측할 수 있다. 금번 이론은 실제로 호주 빅토리아주의 멜보른(Melbourne)시 일부 지역구간을 모형으 로 선정되었다. 분석결과 가장 최적화된 도로포장 각층의 두께와 재료 선정을 하기 위하여 일정기간의 교통량, 상대적 손실지수와 잔여응력 및 표면 변위, 대기온도 그리고 습도의 영 향을 종합적으로 고려하여야 한다.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical effect of intense regulated pulse light (IRPL) and changes in tear film thickness in dry eye patients. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 25 patients with Meibomian gland dysfunction who had subjective dry eye discomfort and whose tear film break-up time (TBUT) was < 10 seconds. All patients were treated with IRPL three times on days 1, 15, and 45. TBUT, Schirmer 1 test results, cornea staining score with fluorescein, ocular surface disease index (OSDI), and lipid layer thickness were measured and compared before and after the procedure. Results: TBUT was significantly increased from $3.7{\pm}1.2s$ to $4.4{\pm}2.1s$ after IRPL (p = 0.03). Schirmer 1 test and cornea staining scores changed significantly (p < 0.01 and p = 0.01, respectively). OSDI also showed a statistically significant improvement from $39.5{\pm}17.5points$ to $30.4{\pm}18.7points$ (p = 0.01). However, no significant difference in lipid layer thickness was observed (p = 0.49). Conclusions: IRPL is an effective treatment modality to improve TBUT, Schirmer 1 test scores, cornea staining scores, and subjective dry eye symptoms.

최근 콘크리트 구조물의 안전성강화를 위해 탄소섬유 강화 플라스틱(CFRP) 보강 공법이 널리 사용되고 있지만 잘 알려진 바와 같이 CFRP 보강재와 콘크리트 표면사이의 부착면 탈락은 보강재 자체의 손상보다 발생할 확률이 높고 이러한 부착면 탈락은 보강의 효과를 무의미하게 만들기 때문에 구조물 전체의 파괴로 직결될 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CFRP 부착면 탈락손상을 실시간으로 검색하기 위해 압전센서를 사용하는 구조물 건전성 평가 기술을 적용하였다. 이의 검증을 위해 CFRP로 보강된 콘크리트 보를 제작하였고 3단계로 증가하는 부착면 탈락 손상을 발생시켰다. 손상 증가 단계마다 CFRP 표면에 배열된 압전센서로부터 임피던스와 유도초음파 신호를 계측하였고 손상에 따른 신호변화를 정량화하기 위해 손상지수인 RMSD를 계산하였다. 더 구체적인 부착면 탈락 손상위치 탐색을 위해서 두 가지 계측 기법으로부터 구해진 RMSD 값를 중첩시키는 Superposed RMSD 가 제안되었다. 구해진 Superposed RMSD 값을 사용하여 커브 피팅이 수행되었고 도출된 커브의 최고값에 해당하는 위치값을 찾아 실제 손상위치와 비교함으로써 제안된 기법의 가능성을 검증해 보았다.

This paper studied the possibility to predict a mechanical property variation from changes in created carbonyl bands by irradiating the surface of high-density polyethylene with short-wavelength ultraviolet radiation of 254 nm to induce a fast chemical degradation. The meaning of this study lies in checking whether a mechanical property change with the same chemical property as the induced optical deterioration is caused by using a UVC lamp with high photon energy instead of optical deterioration via xenon arc light source and outdoor exposure test via natural sunlight requiring a long time. The mechanical strength of high-density polyethylene checked by a tensile test and a creep destruction test showed a similar tendency with CI changes. In particular, the yield strength and elongation had a close relationship with the exposure time to ultraviolet radiation. Accordingly, this paper presented a method to grasp the mechanical property change outdoors requiring a long time more fast through the relationship between the mechanical property change and the carbonyl index using a UVC lamp causing the fast surface degradation.

Crack growth characteristics of elastomeric materials are an important factor determining the strength and durability. In this study, the fatigue crack growth characteristic of filled EPDM compounds with different reinforcing fillers, such as silica and carbon black, was investigated using a newly designed tester. Frequency and test temperature had significant effects on the fatigue crack growth. The crack growth rate decreased with increasing frequency and the rate increased with increasing temperature. A power law relationship between the tearing energy and crack growth was observed for filled EPDM compounds. The crack growth rate reduced with increasing filler contents. Silica filled EPDM showed a better fatigue resistance than carbon black filled EPDM. The crack growth rate of silica filled EPDM decreased up to 30 phr and increased again at 50 phr. The formation of microductile type pits was observed on the fatigue-failure surface of unfilled EPDM, and relatively coarse surface with randomly distributed tear lines was observed on the failure surface of silica filled EPDM.
