This study presents the numerical results of soil-water characteristic curve for sandy soil by pore network model. The Jumunjin sand is subjected to the high resolution 3D X-ray computed tomographic imaging and its pore structure is constructed by the web of pore body and pore channel. The channel radius, essential to the computation of capillary pressure, is obtained based on the skeletonization and Euclidean Distance transform. The experimentally obtained soil-water characteristic curve corroborates the numerically estimated one. The pore channel radius defined by minimum radii of pore throat results in the slightly overestimation of air entry value, while the overall evolution of capillary pressure resides in the acceptable range. The relative permeability computed by a series of suggested models runs above that obtained by pore network model at high degree of saturation.

국가의 규제기관과 처분장에서는 방사성 폐기물의 안전한 영구처분을 위하여 폐기물 수용(인수)기준을 폐기물 발생자에게 준수토록 요구하게 되는데 이러한 폐기물 수용(인수)기준은 처분시설의 가동동안 인간과 환경 보호 그리고 최대 300년간의 제도적 통제기간을 고려하여 처분장의 안전성 확보를 위하여 설정되어진다. 폐기물 수용(인수)기준중 고화체의 안정성 평가와 관련하여 미국(NRC/BTP)은 폐기물의 종류와 고화매질에 따라 유리수, 압축강도, 방사성 조사특성, 미생물 영향 특성, 침수 및 침출 특성, 열순환 특성 등에 대하여 표준시험법을 제시하였으며, 또한 그의 기술기준치도 제시하고 있다. 그리고 프랑스(DRDD/ BECC)에서는 미국보다 매우 세밀하게 평가항목들을 분류하는 등의 처분장 운영국가에서는 고화체의 안정성관련 평가시험들을 처분 환경과 처분방식에 맞게 표준화하고 있다. 한편 국내에서는 과기부 고시 제2001-32호 "중.저준위 방사성폐기물 인도규정"이 있으나 이에는 고화체 관련하여 정성적인 안정성에 대하여서만 기술되어 있다. 이에 따라 원전폐기물 고화체에 대한 안정성 평가를 위한 시험법을 선정하기 위하여 아래 그림과 같은 절차에 따라 수행토록 하였다. 우선 대표적인 천층처분 운영국가인 미국과 프랑스의 시험법 그리고 IAEA 권고 시험법과 유사관련 한국 산업표준법들을 조사하고, 이들 시험법들의 주요 차이점을 기술적 관점에서 비교평가하고, 이어서 모의 방사성 및 비방사성 고화체를 이용하여 상기 시험법들을 각각 적용하고 또한 이들 시험법들간의 차이(시험 조건, 시편의 크기 등)에 기인한 상호 비교시험을 통하여 얻어진 시험결과들을 종합적으로 비교 검토하여 보수적 관점에서 시험법을 선정하는 것으로 방향을 잡았다. 이때 시험결과를 얻기 위한 모든 과정에 품질보증 활동을 적용키로 하였으며, 시험결과 분석/평가 과정과 시험법 선정에 각계(규제기관, 학계, 발전소 현장 및 산업계 등) 전문가로부터 기술자문회의를 통하여 자문 의견을 받기로 하였다. 특히 현재 폐기물 인수 기술기준치가 설정된 국가의 시험법을 심층 있게 검토하기로 하였다.검토하기로 하였다.

This paper presents stress distribution around a central crack tip in a tensile plate using phase-shifting photoelasticity and a power series stress function. Isochromatic data along the straight lines far from the crack tip were obtained by phase shifting photoelasticity and were used as input data of the hybrid experimental analysis. By using the complex-type power series stress equations, the photoelastic stress distribution fields in the vicinity of the crack and the mode I stress intensity factor were obtained. With the help of image processing software, accuracy and reliability was enhanced by twice multiplying and sharpening the measured isochromatics. Actual and reconstructed fringes were compared qualitatively. For quantitative comparison, percentage errors and standard deviations of the percentage errors were calculated for all measured input data by varying the number of terms in the stress function. The experimental results agreed with those predicted by finite element analysis and empirical equation within 2 percent error.

X-ray spectrometric determination of $Ta_2O_54, $Nb_2O_5$ and $ZrO_2$ in tin-slag samples using the double dilution technique was conducted. Tin-slag samples and one synthesized standard sample having similar composition to the samples were diluted with anhydrous $Li_2B_4O_7$ at the level of 1.00, 2.00 and 3.00% of the sample content, respectively. The diluted samples were fused at $1,150^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, and these glass beads were finely ground and pelletized. With the X-ray intensities measured, analytical results were calculated by the double dilution equation. The results agreed to the reference values obtained by the standard calibration method and the simple dilution technique within allowable error range and were reproducible.

There is commonly used the full depth excavation method of sewer pipeline maintenance in Korea. This induces couple of technical and social problems like increase of construction cost and time for excavation and backfill, increase of public complains and delay of traffic, and so force. In order to overcome these problems, lots of laboratory tests were carried out for sewer pipeline of maintenance materials with trenchless methods. The testing materials are liquid and hardened polyurethane, and polyurethane CIPP. The lab tests were followed by Korean Standard. There are no side effects, like harmless to the human body and air pollution with stink. Judging from the limited test results, all the items tested were satisfied the KS criteria.

Interfacial shear strength between epoxy and carbon fiber has been analyzed utilizing the microbond specimen with an epoxy micro-droplet adhered onto single carbon fiber. The interfacial shear stress distributions along the fiber/matrix interface were calculated by finite element analysis using three kinds of finite element models such as droplet model, circular-crosssection model and pull-out model. Conclusions were obtained as follows. (1) Interfacial shear stress distribution showed that larger stresses were concentrated in the fiber/matrix interface for microbond test than for pull-out test. Thus, debonding at the fiber/matrix interface during microbond test was liable to occur at low load level. (2) Microbond test showed higher interfacial strength which was caused by various effects of micro-droplet geometry and size as well as stress concentration in the region contacting with the micro-vise tip.

The widely-used measurement methods for conductivity of non-magnetic metals are van der Pauw method, Two Point Probe method and Eddy Current method. Among them a more simpler and easier method is the Eddy Current method and an instrument using the method is a Conductivity Meter which can measure a conductivity by contacting its probe on a sample surface. However, conductivity standards are essentially needed to confirm the meter's performance or to calibrate it. In this study, six kinds of the standards which are made of Cu, Al-1, Al-2, brass, Zn and SUS-316 are developed and conductivity ranges for the standards are 2.27 %IACS ~ 101.6 %IACS with measurement uncertainty of less than 0.3 %.

레이져 플래시법은 고온에서 열물성을 측정하는 수단으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 방법으로 알려져 있다. 각종재료의 열전도도를 측정하는 방법들이 많으나 열평형 유지, 고온, 측정시간등의 제약으로 열확산도측정이 간편하고 고온까지 가능하므로 이에 대한 측정법이 일반화되어 있다. 레이져 플레시법은 열확산도를 1초이내 측정가능하고 200$0^{\circ}C$까지 장치구현이 가능하므로 가장 많이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 장치의 검증을 위한 열확산도 표준물질이 필요로 하나 현재 열전도도 기준물질을 이용하여 검증하고 있으나 향후 열확산도 기준물질의 개발이 현재 시급하다. 현재까지 그라파이트를 중심으로한 고열전도도 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 현재 국제기관에 의해 인증된 기준물질이 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기준물질로서 가능성을 탐색하고자 이용이 가장 많은 금속을 택하였다. 현재 텅스텐 및 몰리브덴이 고온까지 안정적이므로 두가지 재료를 택하여 실험을 수행하였다. 먼저 상온~1000K온도영역에서 열확산도 측정연구를 수행하였다. 측정된 데이터 값은 TPRC값과 비교하여 10%이내의 오차를 보였으며 고온에서 높은 안정성을 나타냄을 확인할 수 있었다. 아울러 계측시스템의 자동화 및 개량화를 통하여 실험과정에서 발생할 수 있는 오차를 줄였다. 열확산도 해석은 대수법(logarithmic법)과 Parker법을 이용하여 분석하였으며, 레이져에너지 및 시료크기에 따른 영향을 고려하여 여러가지 크기의 시편을 가지고 실험하였다.

The aggregate properties of chilled converter slag reformed by atomizing liquid converter slag were investigated. The properties of mortars with various replacement of standard sand by chilled converter slag as recycled fine aggregates were investigated. The particle shape of chilled converter slag by atomizing was a sphere with an open cavity which is enclosed with two layers like a bored coconut. Specific gravity, unit weight and fineness modulus increased with increasing the replacement, and solid content had the maximum at the replacement of 75% and water absorption rate had the minimum at the replacement. The hardened mortars with higher replacements have the higher specific gravity and the denser texture.
