The primary objective of this research is a study on the pullout bond characteristics of untensioned prestressing strand in concrete. The bond characteristics of untensioned prestressing strand in concrete differs from that of deformed reinforcing bar. In order to use and design untensioned prestressing strand as deformed reinforcing bar, a study for bond characteristics of the untensioned prestressing strand was progressed. Major test variables are embedment length ($10d_b{\sim}60d_b$), concrete cover (45mm, 70mm, 100m) and diameter of strands. (12.7mm : SWPC7, 9.3mm : SWPC7A) As a results, these showed that average bond stress was decreased as a growing the embedment length, and then showed that the bond performance of untensioned prestressing strand was improved if embedment length was above 60$60d_b$.

사용후핵연료에 대한 장기건식저장과 관련하여 원자로에서 조사된 사용후 핵연료피복관에 대한 산화시험을 공기분위기에서 수행하였다. 피복관 시료의 50$0^{\circ}C$ 공기중 산화시험 결과 산화 초기에 급격한 산화율을 보였으며, 이 후 천이점까지 느리게 산화가 진행되다가 천이 후에는 선형적으로 급격히 무게가 증가하는 지르코늄 합금의 수증기 및 공기중에서의 전형적인 산화양상을 나타내었다. 시편별로는 가장 두꺼운 노내 산화막을 가진 시편이 가장 높은 산화율을 나타내었으며, 노내 산화시 천이점에 근접한 시편들이 가장 낮은 산화율을 보였다. 산화율이 가장 높은 시편의 천이후 영역에서의 산화율은 $\Delta$W ＝ 0.74 t ＋ 38.61과 같은 관계식으로 표현될 수 있었다. 이 때 $\Delta$W는 무게이득(mg/dm$^2$)이고 t는 산화시간(h)을 나타낸다. 시험에 사용된 피복관의 단위 산화막두께(l$\mu$m)에 대한 산화무게증가량은 약 13.4mg/dm$^2$으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들은 사용후핵연료 중간저장 시설 및 저장캐스크의 설계 전산코드 작성 및 저장시설의 운영에 관련되어 기반자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Fiber coatings are essential in optical fiber manufacturing, since they provide the protective layers from the surface damages and the adequate fiber strength. Flow and temperature fields of coating liquid in a fiber coating applicator are numerically investigated by using a commercial CFD software. The main focus of this computational study is on the thermal effects by viscous dissipation and the effects of coating supply temperature on the final fiber coating thickness. The numerical results reveal that the thermal effects play a major role in the high-speed optical fiber coating process and give substantial influences on the determination of coating thickness. Changing the supply temperature of coating liquid is found to relieve the radial variation of coating liquid viscosity in the coating die and it can be an effective way to control the fiber coating thickness.

The CANDU element bowing is attributed to actions of both the thermally induced bending moments and the bending moment due to hydraulic drag and mechanical loads, where the bowing is defined as the lateral deflection of an element from the axial centerline. This paper consider only the thermally-induced bending moments which are generated both within the sheath and the fuel and sheath by an asymmetric temperature distribution with respect to the axis of an element The generalized and explicit analytical formula for the thermally-induced bending is presented in con-sideration of 1) bending of an empty tube treated by neglecting the fuel/sheath mechanical interaction and 2) fuel/sheath interaction due to the pellet and sheath temperature variations, where in each case the temperature asymmetries in sheath are modelled to be caused by the combined effects of (i) non-uniform coolant temperature due to imperfect coolant mixing, (ii) variable sheath/coolant heat transfer coefficient, (iii) asymmetric heat generation due to neutron flux gradients across an element and so as to inclusively cover the uniform temperature distributions within the fuel and sheath with respect to the axial centerline. As the results of the sensitivity calculations of the element bowing with the variations of the parameters in the formula, it is found that the element bowing is greatly affected relatively with the variations or changes of element length, sheath inside diameter, average coolant temperature and its variation factor, pellet/sheath mechanical interaction factor, neutron flux depression factor, pellet thermal expansion coefficient, pellet/sheath heat transfer coefficient in comparison with those of other parameters such as sheath thickness, film heat transfer coefficient, sheath thermal expansion coefficient and sheath and pellet thermal conductivities.

Constructions of buildings downtown are increasing as much as ever with a strong demand. Top-Down Method is suitable for its advantage in minimizing its disturbance to the neighborhood. Pre-founded when applied to CFT Column on-site welded is required for splicing. To complement the welded built-up square composite Column was developed. Top-down process will be pouring concrete in accordance with a step-by-step process. Thus, Pre-founded Column and cover concrete to determine the stress condition. Therefore, Concrete filled steel square tubular columns encased with precast concrete were studied. Five Centrally loaded Columns were tested to investigate the axial load carrying capacity. we analyzed the strength and behavior of CET Column by Loading conditions and concrete strength, thickness of cover concrete through structure experiments.

소듐냉각 고속로 (SFR)는 원자력 발전의 가장 시급한 문제점으로 부각되고 있는 사용 후 핵연료를 재활용 하여 가동하는 원자로 이다. Generation IV로 명명되는 차세대 원자로 중에 하나로 국제 공동연구와 자체 연구를 통해 우리나라 고유의 기술이 축적되고 개발되고 있다. 현재 소듐냉각 고속로의 가장 큰 문제점 중의 하나는 금속핵연료와 피복관의 상호반응이다. 상호반응이 일어나면 공융현상을 일으켜 피복관의 녹는점이 낮아지고 피복관의 두께가 얇아져 원자로의 안전에 치명적인 위협이 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 전해도금 (electro-plating)을 활용하여 HT9 피복관 내면에 크롬을 도금하여 금속핵연료와 피복관의 상호반응을 억제하는 연구가 본 연구팀에서 진행되고 있다. 크롬과 전해도금을 코팅 물질과 코팅 방법으로 선정한 이유는 튜브 내면에 적용하기 용이하고 경제적인 코팅 방법이기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 전해도금 인자 중 온도와 pulse 전류의 파형이 상호반응 방지 효과에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 도금액의 온도를 $50{\sim}80^{\circ}C$, 전류 파형 중 on/off time을 1:1, 10:1, 1:10으로 하여 여러 HT9 시편을 도금하였고 모의 금속 핵연료 합금인 Ce-Nd와 확산 반응 실험을 수행하여 상호반응 방지 효과를 분석하였다. 광학현미경과 전자현미경을 이용한 미세구조 분석 결과 도금액의 온도가 $65^{\circ}C$ 이하인 시편에서는 미세균열이 심하게 발생하였고 그 균열을 통해서 물질이 확산하고 상호반응을 한다는 것이 관찰되었다. $65^{\circ}C$보다 높은 도금액의 온도에서 형성된 크롬막은 균열이 없고 상호반응 방지 효과가 좋은 것이 확인되었다. 특히 전류 파형의 on/off time이 1:1일 때 상호반응 방지 효과가 가장 좋은 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 크롬 전해도금의 코팅 조건이 상호반응 방지 효과에 매우 중요한 요인으로 작용한다는 것을 말해주고 있다.

The spalling analysis of high strength concrete columns needs a very complex and difficult process accounting for peeling of cover concrete as well as thermal, thermo-stress and hygro-transfer phenomena. However, the study on the spalling analysis method is insufficient. The practical spalling analysis algorithm is developed in this study, which formulates a vapor pressure equation as the parameter of temperature and cover depth and uses the compatibility condition In results of the spalling analysis, as the concrete strength increases and the content of PP fiber decreases the degree of spalling increases. This shows a similar result as the previous experimental study. Therefore the developed algorithm suggested in this study is expected to be useful in predicting the spalling of high strength concrete columns.

Typical composite girder has been composed with conventional concrete deck and steel girder. Recently, ultrahigh-performance-concrete (UHPC) deck is proposed in order to enhance durability and reduce weight of deck as well as to increase stiffness and strength of the composite girder. This study investigates that a headed stud is still compatible as a shear connector for the UHPC deck and steel girder composite beam. Twelve push-out specimens are prepared to evaluate the static strength of stud shear connectors embedded in the UHPC deck. The test program proves that the static strength of the stud shear connectors embedded in UHPC well meets with design codes described in AASHTO LRFD. Chosen experimental variables are aspect ratio of height to diameter of stud, thickness of deck and thickness of concrete cover over the head of stud. From the test program, aspect ratio and cover thickness are investigated to mitigate the regulations of the existing design codes. The minimum aspect ratio and the minimum cover thickness given in AASHTO LRFD are four and 50mm, respectively. This limitation hinders to lower the thickness of the UHPC deck. The results of the experiment program give that the aspect ratio and the cover thickness can be lower down to three and 25mm, respectively. Eurocode-4 regulates characteristic relative slip at least 6mm. However, test results show that stud shear connectors embedded in UHPC provide the characteristic relative slip only about 4mm. Therefore, another measures to increase ductility of stud should be prepared.
