The life management technology becomes important as the failure risk of the aged power transformers increases. Asset management technology, therefore, has been developed to evaluate the remaining life and build replacement strategies of power transformers, which enables an optimal investment decisions based on reliability and economic feasibility. The remaining life assessment technology uses data related to such as installation, operation, maintenance, refurbishment, and disposed history of power transformers. The optimal investment decision additionally uses data related to failure and social costs. To develop the asset management technology in power transformers, it is important to find deterioration parameters directly indicating degradation of power transformers. In this study, 110,000 DGA data during the past 35 years have been analyzed in order to find the deterioration parameters related to the degradation of power transformers. The alarm rates of combustible gases ($H_2$, $C_2H_2$, $C_2H_4$, $CH_4$, $C_2H_6$), TCG CO, and $CO_2$ were analyzed as deterioration parameters. The origin of the gas was discussed in connection with discharge, overheating and insulation aging.

최근들어 고속도로, 고속철도, 지하철등의 건설이 증가하면서 터널의 건설도 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 이러한 터널 공사에서 필수적으로 따르는 것이 숏크리트 공정이며 이러한 숏크리트의 시공은 앞으로도 더욱 증가할 추세에 있다. 그러나 숏크리트의 광범위한 시공에도 불구하고 여러 가지 문제점을 내포하고 있는 것이 사실이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우리나라 현행 숏크리트의 현황과 문제점을 분석하고, 고품질의 숏크리트 시공을 위하여 실리카퓸 숏크리트의 성능 및 적용성에 대해 분석하였다. 또한 숏크리트의 장기적인 안정성 확보를 위해서는 복합적인 환경조건을 고려한 열화 특성을 파악할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 건습 반복, 동결융해 및 탄산화 등의 열화 인자를 복합적으로 적용한 열화 시험을 수행하였다. 특히, 우수한 강도 증진 효과로 국외에서 많이 사용되고 있는 실리카퓸을 적용하여 혼화재 치환에 따른 숏크리트의 장기 내구 특성을 평가하였다. 복합 열화 시험 결과 실리카퓸을 혼입한 숏크리트는 다른 배합에 비해 가장 양호한 결과를 나타냈고, 실리카퓸은 강도 증진 효과와 함께 강섬유 혼입에 의한 열화 현상을 최소한으로 감소시켜 숏크리트의 장기 내구성을 확보하는데 효과가 있었다.

철근 콘크리트 교량 바닥판은 차량 하중과 우수침투 등으로 가장 먼저 손상이 발생하며 제설염화물 등으로 인한 철근 및 기타 금속 부재가 부식되면서 콘크리트 열화가 주로 발생한다. 교량 바닥판의 시공 상태 및 포장 내부 바닥판의 열화는 지표투과레이더(ground-penetrating radar, GPR) 탐사 자료를 이용하여 평가하고 있다. 교량의 콘크리트 열화 상태를 평가하기 위해서는 철근의 위치 및 열화 지점을 정확하게 파악하기 위한 GPR 자료 해석 기술 개발이 필요하다. GPR 탐사에서는 지반 매질의 레이더파 전파 속도 차이에 의한 반사 및 회절파 신호를 취득한다. 그러므로 이 연구에서는 GPR 탐사 자료를 이용해서 지반 매질의 레이더파 전파 속도를 추정하고 교량 바닥판의 열화를 평가하기 위한 완전파형역산(full-waveform inversion, FWI) 기술을 개발하였다. 개발된 FWI 기술의 적용성은 콘크리트 박리 및 철근 부식과 같은 교량 바닥판 열화현상을 보여주는 GPR 속도 모델을 만들어서 수치 실험을 수행하여 검증하였다. 합성 GPR 자료로 역산한 결과 교량 바닥판의 철근 위치와 열화 지점을 역산으로 계산된 속도 영상으로 확인할 수 있었다.

Nuclear power plant structures may be exposed to aggressive environmental effects than may cause their strength and stiffness to decrease over their service lives, Although the physics of these damage mechanisms are reasonably well understood and quantitative evaluation of their effects on time-dependent structural behavior is possible in some instances such evaluations are generally very difficult and remain novel. The assessment of existing RC containment in nuclear power plants for continued service must provide quantitative evidence that they are able to withstand future extreme loads during a service period with an acceptable level of reliability. Rational methodologies to perform the reliability assessment can be developed from mechanistic models of structural deterioration using time-dependent structural reliability analysis to take earthquake loading uncertainties into account. The final goal of this study is to develop the reliability analysis of RC containment structures. The cause of the degrading is first clarified and the reliability assessment has been conducted. By introducing stochastic analysis based on random vibration theory the reliability analysis which can determine the failure probabilities has been established.

Nuclear power plant structures may be exposed to aggressive environmental effects that may cause their damage mechanisms are reasonably well understood and quantitative evaluation of their effects on time-dependent structural behavior is possible in some instances, such evaluations are generally very difficult and remain novel. The assessment of existing steel containment in nuclear power plants for continued service must provide quantitative evidence that they are able to withstand future extreme loads during a service period with an acceptable level of reliability. Rational methodologies to perform the reliability assessment can be developed from mechanistic models of structural deterioration, using time-dependent structural reliability analysis to take loading and strength uncertainties into account. The final goal of this study is to develop the analysis method for the analysis for the reliability of containment structures. The cause and mechanism of corrosion is first clarified and the reliability assessment method has been established. By introducing the equivalent normal distribution, the procedure of reliability analysis which can determine the failure probabilities has been established.

In order to provide orange sac for off-season processing of sac-suspended orange juice, orange was treatee into intermediate production of orange sac and segment, stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$ during 3 months for assessment of sac-quality providing various processing conditions. Lowering the pH of syrup and sterilization temperature reduced the deterioration of sac quality in terms of intensity and destruction of sac. Sugar content of syrup had little relation with intensity of orange sac at pH 6.5, whereas in the range of pH 3.0~3.8, the increase of sugar content increased intensity of sac. The storage of segment form maintained better quality than that of sac form. The absorbance of syrup was linearly inverse to sac intensity. The deterioration of sac quality may be related to effulence of some materails in sac. Sac product sterilized at below $65^{\circ}C$ had possibility to be contaminated by microbes.

When reinforced concrete is subjected to high temperature as in fire, there is deterioration in its properties of particular importance are loss in compressive strength, cracking and spalling of concrete, destruction of the bond between the cement paste and the aggregates and the gradual deterioration of the hardend cement paste. Assessment of fire-damaged concrete usually starts with visual observation of color change, cracking and spalling of the surface. In this paper, it was reported the trends of research and practical use on the Explosive Spalling Properties of the High-Strength Concrete.

The degree of changes in mechanical properties of fire-damaged reinforced concrete column depends mostly on sectional geometry, duration exposed to fire, and moisture containment. In order to reasonably assess the deterioration of structural capacity of fire-damaged reinforced concrete column, it is necessary to develop a theoretical model predicting column behavior based on nonlinear heat transfer equation in addition to the traditional mechanics. This research focuses on the development of theoretical model to predict moment-curvature relations of fire-damaged reinforced column. The model is used for the assessment of structural capacity of fire-damaged column in terms of moment-curvature relations and PM interaction curves.

This paper is to predict quality deterioration resulting from a caulking process of yoke which is a part of automotive steering system. The caluking is a plastic deformation process involving such as impact of high speed tool, contacts between part and fixtures and strain rate sensitivity of the part material. Elaborate application of finite element method is neccesary to calculate changes of part dimensions because they fall into a level of tolerances. Simple work hardening and strain rate sensitive model is proposed fur the material and applied for the simulation by using Abaqus which is able to cater for elastoplastic rate sensitive material and contacts. Numerical results of test models that represent tensile bar and tensile plate are compared with material data inputs. Dimensional changes for the yoke are calculated from simulations and compared to the mesurements and they show good agreement. The method presented here with the material model proved to be valuable to assess quality deterioration for similar metal forming processes.

In this study, the Ground Penetrating Radar(GPR) was tested to evaluate the condition of concrete decks. Test results obtained by CPR were compared with values measured from drilled cores and damage mapping by the visual survey. It is shown that GPR can provide highly accurate measurements of layer properties of concrete decks and can map areas of deterioration in bridge decks by dielectric constants. The deck condition can be grouped into categories of "good" or "distressed". The ground penetrating radar data shows promise for producing rapid and accurate condition assessment for bridge decks. And these data can be used to evaluate highway bridge condition and make cost-effective bridge deck rehabilitation by accurately estimating the quantity of deteriorated concrete.
