  • 시간 영역에서의 초음파 강쇄계수 추정방법은 일반적으로 감쇄매절을 통과하면서 반사된 초음파 신호의 통계적인 특성의 해석을 기초로 한다. 따라서 선뢰할 수 있는 추정결과를 얻기 위해셔는 대게 충분히 많은 초음파 신호의 샘플을 펼요로 하게 된다. 감쇄계수를 추정하는 문제에 있어서, 이것은 감쇄계수 영상의 공간 해상도 체적내에서 통계적으로 다른 특성을 갖는 많은 스렉클 패턴이 필요하다는 것을 의마한다. 이 논문에서는 스펙클 패턴이 초음파 빔의 정확산함수에 따라 다른 통계적인 특성을 갖는다는 성질을 이용하여 초음파 선행변환자플 회전시키면서 각 회전각도에서 측방향 스캔을 함으로써 통계적 상관이 적은 다수의 샘플틀을 얻는 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 최근에 우리가 제안한초음파 감쇄계수의 추정을 위한 엔트로피 방법과 결합되어 감쇄계수추정의 정확성을 증가시카고 공간해상도를 줄얼 수 있다. 인체의 연조직과 유사한 특성을 갖는 팬텀을 제작한 후 실험을 통하여 제안한 방법의 타당성을 검증하도록 하겠다.

  • To quantify the LII signals from soot particle of flames in diesel engine cylinder, a new method has been proposed for correcting LII signal attenuated by soot particles between the measuring point and the detector. It has been verified by an experiment on a laminar jet ethylene-air diffusion flame. Being proportional to the attenuation, the ratio of LII signal at two different detection wavelengths can be used to correct the measured LIIsignal and obtain the unattenuated LII signal, from which the soot volume fraction in the flame can be estimated. Both the 1064-nm and frequency-doubled 532-nm beams from the Nd : YAG laser are used. Single-shot, one-dimensional(1-D) line images are recorded on the intensified CCD camera, with the rectangular-profile laser beam using 1-mm-diameter pinhole. Two broadband optical interference filters having the center wavelengths of 647 nm and 400 nm respectively and a bandwidth of 10 nm are used. This two-wavelength correction has been applied to the ethylene-air coannular laminar diffusion flame, previously studied on soot formation by the laser extinction method in this laboratory. The results by the LII measurement technique and the conventional laser extinction method at the height of 40 nm above the jet exit agreed well with each other except around outside of the peaks of soot concentration, where the soot concentration was relatively high and resulting attenuation of the LII signal was large. The radial profile shape of soot concentration was not changed a lot, but the absolute value of the soot volume fraction around outside edge changed from 4ppm to 6.5 ppm at r=2.8mm after correction. This means that the attenuation of LII signal was approximately 40% at this point, which is higher than the average attenuation rate of this flame, 10~15%.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the residual bearing capacity of steel-concrete composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading through experiments and theoretical analysis. Six test beams with stud connectors were designed and fabricated for static, complete fatigue, and partial fatigue tests. The failure modes and the degradation of several mechanical performance indicators of the composite beams under high-cycle fatigue loading were analyzed. A calculation method for the residual bearing capacity of the composite beams after certain quantities of cyclic loading cycles was established by introducing nonlinear fatigue damage models for concrete, steel beam, and shear connectors beginning with the material residual strength attenuation process. The results show that the failure mode of the composite beams under the given fatigue load appears to be primarily affected by the number of cycles. As the number of fatigue loadings increases, the failure mode transforms from mid-span concrete crushing to stud cutting. The bearing capacity of a 3.0-m span composite beam after two million fatigue cycles is degraded by 30.7% due to premature failure of the stud. The calculated values of the residual bearing capacity method of the composite beam established in this paper agree well with the test values, which indicates that the model is feasibly applicable.

  • 본 연구는 방사선치료에서 방사선 선량전달의 정확도를 높이기 위해 두 종류의 치료테이블 6D robotic couch (BrainLab, Feldkirchen, Germany)와 Standard exact couch (Varian Exact couch$^{TM}$, Varian Medical Systems, Milpitas, CA, USA)를 이용하여 Rail의 위상(In-Out)에 따른 상대선량을 측정하여, 선량감쇠율을 계산하였다. 치료테이블을 투과하는 조사에너지의 조사각 $0^{\circ}$에서 $360^{\circ}$까지의 상대 선량을 각각 측정하였으며, 조사각이 $0^{\circ}$일 때 측정된 선량을 기준으로 하여 $5^{\circ}$ 간격으로 선량의 변화를 측정하고 선량 감쇠율을 계산하였다. Standard exact couch의 광자선 에너지는 6 MV와 10 MV를 사용하였으며 치료테이블의 Rail 위상(In position, Out position)에 따른 상대 선량을 측정하였다. 6D robotic couch는 6 MV와 15 MV의 광자선 에너지를 사용하였다. Standard exact couch의 광자선의 최대 선량차이는 Rail In position에서 6 MV ($175^{\circ}$), 10 MV ($175^{\circ}$)일 때, 선량차이는 각각 16.53%, 12.42%, Out position에서 6 MV ($225^{\circ}$), 10 MV ($225^{\circ}$)일 때, 선량차이는 각각 15.15%, 9.96%였다. 6D robotic couch에서는 6 MV ($130^{\circ}$)와 15 MV ($130^{\circ}$)일 때, 선량차이는 각각 6.82%, 4.92%였다. 본 연구를 통해, 치료테이블의 종류에 따른 선량 감쇠율은 6D robotic couch가 Standard exact couch보다 6 MV에서 조사각 $180^{\circ}$ 기준 약 1% 더 발생함을 확인하였고, Stnadard exact couch인 경우, Sliding rail의 위상(In position, Out position)에 따라 선량 감쇠가 급격히 변화하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 고 에너지 23MV광자선의 특성 중 임상적용에 중요한 심부선량 백분율, 조직-최대선량비 (TMR), 산란-최대선량비 (SMR), 표면선량 및 출력선량 보정계수등의 변수가 이온전리 (IC-10)함 및 평행 평판전리 (PS-033)함에 의해 측정 조사되었다. 명목상의 23 MV X-선에 대한 가속에너지는 $18.5\pm0.5$ MV로 측정되었다. Mevatron KD 8067의 23 MV X-선의 중심선속의 반가층이 기하학적인 좁은 선속으로 측정되었으며 반가층의 두께는 $24.5\;g/cm^2$이었다. 조직-최대선량비는 심부선량백분율표에서 구해졌으며, 실측치와 비교한 결과 각 조사면의 크기와 깊이에서 약간의 차이를 보였으나 평균 $0.7\pm0.5$의 오차를 나타내고 있어 계산에 의한 TMR 값과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 조사면 $0\times0\;cm^2$의 TMR 값은 zero 조사면의 유효감약계수에 의한 값과, 각 조사면의 조직-최대 선량비로 부터 비선형최소자승법에 의해 구해진 유효선흡수계수 및 반가층 측정에 의한 유효선흡수 계수에 의한 값들로 비교되었으며, $\mu=0.0283{\pm}0,0002cm^{-1}$을 보였고, 세 방법 모두 오차범위내에서 잘 일치됨을 보였다. 한편, 불규칙 조사면의 선량계산에 이용될 SMR은 조사면의 반경 50cm까지 계산되어 대형 조사 면에서도 선량율 산출이 이루어지도록 하였다. Mevatron KD 8067의 23 MV X-선의 조직 표면선량은 SSD 100 cm, 1$10\times10\;cm^2$의 조사면에서 최대조직선량율의 $9.6\%,\;25\times25\;cm^2$에서는 $25.4\%$를 보였다.

  • Uncertainty is studied in the measurements of average packing density, thickness of packed spheres and transmittance in the experiments to study the effect of the bed height and the existence of the bed side walls on the transmittance of radiative energy through packed spheres. The packing density of the bed is obtained by counting the number of the spheres packed in three pipes with different heights. The bed height of the packed spheres is estimated from the number of spheres contained in the bed by using the relation between the bed height and the sphere number. The transmittance is obtained by dividing the intensity of the transmitted laser beam by the incoming-beam intensity. From the analysis, the uncertainity in the measurements of transmittance is shown to be less than 10.2%(95% coverage).

  • In this study, a noncontact laser ultrasonic system is proposed for rail defect detection. An Nd-Yag pulse laser is used for generation of ultrasonic waves, and the corresponding ultrasonic responses are measured by a laser Doppler vibrometer. For the detection of rail surface damages, the shape of the excitation laser beam is transformed into a line. On the other hand, a point source laser beam is used for the inspection of defects inside a rail head. Then, the interactions of propagating ultrasonic waves with defects are examined using actual rail specimens. Amplitude attenuation was mainly observed for a surface crack, and reflections were most noticeable from an internal damage. Finally, opportunities and challenges associated with real-time rail inspection from a high-speed train are discussed.

  • Heavyweight(or High density) concrete, which is generally for shiedling structures, differs from normal weight concrete by having a higher density and special compositions to improve its attenuation properties. There are setting 7 Beam Ports around the reactor of the KMRR Project(Korea Multi-purpose Research Reactor) conducted by the KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute). High density(p=5.0t/$\textrm{m}^3$) and Heavyweight(p=3.5t/$\textrm{m}^3$) concrete were placed around the Beam Ports in order to shield radiation. This paper was discussed about construction of High density concrete. High density concrete was placed with method of Preplace Aggregate. Coarse metallic aggregate(steel shot) was used. Boron, boron carbide(B4C), was used to capture effctively the neutrom. The mock-up test was carried out. And the consturction of High density concrete was performed successfully.

  • The optical patterantor provides the high resolution and quantitative information of the spray. Fuel distribution and Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) can be measured from fluorescence and Mie-scat-tering images. To correct the attenuation of the laser beam and signal in dense spray region, the method to find the geometric mean of the signal intensities obtained from two cameras was evaluated and verified in a solid-cone spray. In high pressure environment, the increased number density of the droplets cause multiple scattering. The optical patternation technique using a laser beam instead of a laser sheet was applied to minimize the multiple scattering problem. The pattern of a coaxial spray was changed from hollow-cone to solid-cone shape, and the spray angle was reduced as the ambient pressure increased from 0.1 to 4.0 MPa.

  • 이 연구의 목적은 Ir192 선원을 이용한 근접치료에서 물 흡수선량 1 Gy에 대한 광자 에너지플루언스와 질량에너지흡수계수를 유도하는데 있다. Khan이 저술한 방사선치료물리학으로부터 Ir192 선원의 감마선 선속에 대한 납의 반가층을 얻었다. 얻어진 납의 반가층으로부터 선감쇠계수와 질량감쇠계수를 산출하였다. 산출된 납의 질량감쇠계수를 NIST의 납의 질량감쇠계수 자료에 대응시켜 일치하는 질량감쇠계수의 광자에너지를 유효에너지로 결정하였다. 결정된 유효에너지를 NIST의 물의 질량에너지흡수계수 자료의 광자에너지에 대응시켜서, 물의 질량에너지흡수계수는 0.03273 cm2/g(32.73 cm2/kg)으로 얻었다. 얻어진 물의 질량에너지흡수계수(32.73 cm2/kg)를 물 흡수선량 1 Gy에 나누어 광자에너지플루언스는 0.03055 J/cm2으로 산출하였다.
