Loss of leg muscle and muscle weakness, which are caused by aging, affect muscle function and sense of balance. As a way of preventing seniors from falling, we developed the idea of wearing functional supporters based on graduated compression technique and in the form of a taping supporter. Their impact on power, sense of balance, overcoming fatigue, and subjective wearing sensation was investigated. The following results were obtained. After wearing functional compression supporters, body temperature increased from 24.5 ± 0.5℃ to 26.3 ± 0.6℃. Calf size, which assesses the level of edema, decreased from 26.1 ± 1.8cm to 25.7 ± 1.8cm. The result of dynamic balance test, which helps estimate the fall prevention effect, increased from 6.4 ± 0.9sec to 7.1 ± 0.6sec. Lactate level, which indicates the level of fatigue, decreased from 8.1 ± 0.6mmol/L to 7.3 ± 0.8mmol/L. Standing long jump record, which assesses power, increased from 110.1 ± 3.1cm to 112.0 ± 2.8cm. Standing on one leg with eyes closed, which assesses sense of balance, increased from 4.2 ± 1.1sec to 6.5 ± 0.8sec. Ankle angle, which assesses joint stability, increased from 75.3 ± 4.0° to 80.1 ± 1.7°. In metabolism and physical performance testing, which assesses keep, the score increased from 26.3 ± 1.7 to 28.8 ± 1.2. Muscle supporting score, which assesses joint stability, increased from 7.3 ± 0.6 to 7.8 ± 0.4. In the category of body type, which assesses wearing sensation and body shaping function, the score increased from 5.7 ± 1.4 to 6.4 ± 1.2

충격 시나 충격 후 압축 할 때 구조용 복합재의 거동에 대한 중요성은 충격 손상과 충격후압축강도 예측에 대한 해석적 모델을 개발하기 위해 간과될 수 없을 것이다. 본 연구는 3mm두께의 $[45/-45/0/90_{3s}$ - IM7/8552린복합재판들을 이용하여 준정적횡하중시험, 저속충격시험, 충격후압축강도시험 및 구멍이 있는 시편의 압축강도시험 등을 수행한 후 이로 부터 발견된 결과들을 제시하였다 준정적횡하중과 충격하중시험에서 발생한 손상면적들이 서로 유사하며. 또한 5.4 J 부터 18.7 J 까지의 다양한 에너지준위들을 가진 낙하충격 시험 곡선들과 정적시험 곡선들도 서로 유사하다는 결론을 얻었으며. 이때 주어진 에너지 준위에서 정적과 충격시의 최대하중 값들이 잘 일치한다는 사실을 확인 하였다. 충격 후 압축시험에 의한 시편들의 파괴거동이 압축하중하의 구멍이 있는 적층판에서 관찰된 파괴거동과 매우 유사하과는 사실도 확인 되었다. 충격손상 후 잔류강도는 충격손상 등가구멍이 있는 경우의 시편에서 측정된 압축 강도와 잘 일치 하였다. 이와 같은 실험적 연구 결과들은 충격손상면적과 충격후압축강도의 예측에 대한 단순만 해석모델들이 이들 시험결과들로부터 관찰된 파괴기구를 기초로 하여 개발될 수 있음을 제시하고 있다.

탄소섬유강화 복합재료는 일반적으로 압축하중과 재료의 면에 수직한 방향의 충격에 매우 취약하다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 특히 항공기의 운항 중 조류와의 충돌이나 정비 중 공구의 낙하로 인한 충격손상은 항공기 구조물의 강도저하의 원인이 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 복합재료(CFRP) 시험편에 충격에너지와 충격자 직경을 변화시키면서 충격손상을 가한 후 압축시험을 수행하여 충격후 압축잔류강도를 평가하였으며, 시험 결과를 비교하여 충격에너지에 따른 충격후 압축잔류강도 예측식을 제안하였다.

Composite effect between steel and recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) in steel reinforced-RAC (SRRAC) structures can effectively improve RAC's adverse mechanical properties due to the natural defects of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). However, the performance of SRRAC after thermal exposure will have a great impact on the safety of the structure. In this paper, firstly, the mechanical properties of SRRAC structures after high temperatures exposure were tested, including 24 SRRAC columns and 32 SRRAC beams. Then, the change rules of beams and columns performance with the maximum temperature and replacement percentage were compared. Finally, the formulas to evaluate the residual bearing capacity of SRRAC beams and columns after exposure to high temperatures were established. The experimental results show that the maximum exposure temperature can be judged by the apparent phenomenon and mass loss ratio of RAC. After high temperatures exposure, the mechanical properties of SRRAC beams and columns change significantly, where the degradation of bearing capacity and stiffness is the most obvious. Moreover, it is found that the degradation degree of compression member is more serious than that of flexural member. The formulas of residual bearing capacity established by introducing influence coefficient of material strength agree well with the experimental results.

Creep of soils has a significant impact on mechanical properties. The one-dimensional consolidation creep test, thermal analysis test, scanning electron microscope (SEM) test, and mercury compression test were performed on Guilin red clay to study the changes in bound water and microstructure during the creep process of Guilin red clay. According to the results of the tests, only free and weakly bound water is discharged during the creep of Guilin red clay. When the consolidation pressure p is in the 12.5-400.0 kPa range, it is primarily the discharge of free water; when the consolidation pressure p is in the 800.0-1600.0 kPa range, the weakly bound water is converted to free water and discharged. After consolidation creep, the microstructure of soil changes from granular overhead contact structure to flat sheet-like stacking structure, with a decrease in the number of large and medium pores, an increase in the number of small and micro pores, and a decrease in the fractal dimension of pores. The creep process of red clay is the discharge of weakly bound water as well as the compression of large pores into small pores and the transition of soil particles from loose to dense.

위성탑재 영상레이다 시스템은 마이크로파를 방사하여 지상에서 되튕겨온 신호를 수신한다. 수신된 신호는 영상레이다 수신경로의 마지막에 위치한 디지털 수신기에서 디지털 신호로 변환된다. 변환된 디지털 신호는 필터링, 압축 및 포맷팅 과정을 거친다. 디지털 수신기의 신호처리 과정은 두 차례의 양자화로 수행된다. 첫 번째는 아날로그 신호를 디지털 신호로 변환하는 과정이고, 다른 하나는 BAQ를 이용한 압축과정이다. 양자화는 높은 비트에서 낮은 비트로 변환하는 과정으로 양자화 오차가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 SNR 저하의 관점에서 디지털 수신기에서 수행되는 양자화의 영향성을 분석하였다.

장기내열성과 파단신율이 우수한 블렌드 수지를 개발하고자 polyphenylene sulfide(PPS)에 7종류의 elastomer를 용융혼합하여 그 가능성을 조사해 보았다. PPS/elastomer(90/10, 80/20, 70/30) 블렌드를 제조한 후 시험편을 압축성형 또는 sheet를 제조하여 capillary rheometer, UTM, impact tester, SEM 등으로 유변학적 거동, 기계적 특성 및 모폴로지를 측정하였고 오븐에서 일주일간 열을 가한 후 다시 기계적 특성을 측정하였다. 열을 가하기 전의 인장강도는 elastomer 종류에 관계없이 비슷하였고 파단신율은 m-EVA의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 보였다. Elastomer 첨가량을 증가시킴에 따라 신율이 증가하였는데 30 wt%정도 첨가 시 박리가 발생하였다. 오븐테스트 이후에는 인장 강도는 더 증가한 반면에 신율은 급격히 감소하였다. 상기의 elastomer들이 PPS와 부분적인 상용성이 있는 것으로 보이는 바 소량의 elastomer 첨가 만으로도 PPS 가공과 관련된 여러 문제 등을 해결할 수 있어 다양한 그레이드의 개발에 적극 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 충격반향기법을 이용하여 화해를 입은 고강도 콘크리트의 화재손상정도를 평가하였다. 100 MPa급의 고강도 콘크리트 시편을 제조하여 $100{\sim}800^{\circ}C$의 고온에 2시간 동안 노출한 후 충격반향기법의 응답스펙트럼을 이용하여 시편의 탄성파 속도를 측정하였으며, 이를 이용하여 동탄성계수를 산출하였다. 이후 직접 압축강도 실험을 통해 시편의 잔존압축강도와 정탄성계수를 측정하였다. 실험결과, 노출되는 온도가 높을수록 탄성파의 속도, 동탄성계수, 잔존압축강도, 정탄성계수가 저하되는 경향을 나타냈으며, 탄성파 속도와 압축강도, 동탄성계수와 정탄성계수는 선형적인 상관관계를 나타냈다. 따라서 충격반향기법을 이용하여 화해를 입은 고강도 콘크리트의 화재손상정도를 평가하는 것이 가능하다고 판단된다.

Background and objective: Breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL) is a disabling complication with long term impact on quality on life after breast cancer treatment. Its management remains a major challenge for patients and health care professionals; the goal of this overview was to summarize effects of different treatment strategies for patients with BCRL. Methods: A thorough search was undertaken to allow a systematic review or meta-analysis of treatments for BCRL. Two investigators independently selected studies and abstracted the data. Results: Combined physical therapy (CPT) with different combinations of surgery, oral pharmaceuticals, low-level laser therapy, weight reduction, mesenchymal stem cell therapy, kinesio tex taping, and acupuncture might be effective in reducing lymphoedema, but exercise demonstrated no obvious benefit. The results of direct comparisons showed CPT might be more effective than standard physiotherapy (ST). Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) may not offer additional benefits to ST for swelling reduction, but could facilitate compression bandaging. MLD seemed to have similar effects with self-administered simple lymphatic drainage (SLD) or using an intermittent pneumatic compression pump (IPC). IPC might also not be associated with additional effectiveness for CPT. Efficacy of stem cell therapy vs. compression sleeve or CPT, as well as the effects of daflon and coumarin could not be established. Conclusion: Although many treatments for BCRL might reduce lymphoedema volume, their effects were not well established. The quality of many of the original studies in the included reviews was not optimal, so that in future randomized control trials are a high priority.

During the pipe forming process, a steel plate undergoes inelastic behavior multiple times under a load condition repeating tension and compression in the circumferential direction. It derives local reduction or increase of yield strength within the thickness of steel pipes by the plastic hardening and Bauschinger effect. In this study, a combined hardening model is proposed to effectively predict variations of yield strength in the circumferential direction of API-X65 and X70 steel pipes with relatively low t/D ratio during the forming process, which is expected to experience accumulated plastic strain of 2~3%, the typical Lüder band range in a low-carbon steel. Cyclic tensile tests of API-X65 and X70 steels were performed, and the parameters of the proposed model for the steels were calibrated using the test results. Bending-flattening tests to simulate repeated tension and compression during pipe forming were followed for API-X65 and X70 steels, and the results were compared with those by the proposed model and Zou et al. (2016), in order to verify the process of material model calibration based on tension-compression cyclic test, and the accuracy of the proposed model. Finally, parametric analysis for the yield strength of the steel plate in the circumferential direction of UOE pipe was conducted to investigate the effects of t/D and expansion ratios after O-forming on the yield strength. The results confirmed that the model by Zou et al. (2016) underestimated the yield strength of steel pipe with relatively low t/D ratio, and the parametric analysis showed that the t/D and expansion ratio have a significant impact on the strength of steel pipe.
