  • Evaluation of the smear effect caused by mandrel penetration into soft ground for a vertical drain installation is very important to predict the consolidation time of soft ground improvement. 30 kinds of laboratory model tests considering in situ conditions were conducted to investigate the formation of a smear zone and the decrease of coefficient of permeability in the disturbed zone. Three types(C(clay):M(silt)=1:1, 0.5:0.5, and 0:1) of reconstituted samples were used for 3 dimensional smear zone test. An experimental study was performed focusing on length of mandrel penetration, mandrel shape and size, earth pressure, and ground condition(unit weight and grain size distributions). Laboratory test results show that the length of mandrel penetration is the most critical factor for the formation of smear zone. As a result, the ratio between diameter of the smear zone($d_s$) and that of mandrel($d_m$) at field using long mandrel becomes larger than conventional $d_s/d_m$. The ratio between $d_s$ and $d_m$ ranges from 1.89 and 2.48 with the sample at C:M=1:0. It was also found that the $d_s/d_m$ value with the round shape of the mandrel is smaller than that of diamond one. The value of $d_s/d_m$ decreased with larger mandrel size, lower unit weight, and higher earth pressure. However, higher silt content led to increase of $d_s/d_m$. The ratio between coefficient of horizontal permeability in the smear zone($k_{hs}$) and that of undisturbed zone($k_{ho}$) ranged from 0.70 to 0.85. The test results imply that factors and values affecting $k_{hs}/k_{ho}$ show similar tendency with $d_s/d_m$.

  • 기존의 2차원 FDLB 모델(D2Q21)에서 비열비 ${\gamma}$는 공간의 차원수(D)에 의존한다. 즉, 2차원 공간의 계산에서는 ${\gamma}=(D+2)/D=2.0$밖에 취할 수 없으며, 공기와 같은 실체기체를 전산모사 하기에는 여러 어려움이 있다. 이러한 이유 때문에 문헌[1]의 LBM에서 제안된 조정 가능한 비열비 모델을 2차원 FDLB모델에 적용하여 자려발생 에지톤(edgetone)의 수치계산이 수행되었다. wedge의 선단각도가 ${\alpha}=23^{\circ}$(Case I) 및 $20^{\circ}$(Case II)를 갖는 2가지 모델이 설정되었으며, 노즐출구에서 wedge선단까지의 거리 w/d는 $3d{\sim}12d$사이에서 주어졌다. edgetone은 노즐로부터 나온 분류와 edge의 상호작용으로 이난 음압(sound pressure)의 차에 의해서 소음이 발생하며, 이 음압은 다시 상류의 분류에 영향을 미쳐 분류의 변동을 가져온다. w/d가 ??9d이하인 경우, 피드백(feedback) 메커니즘에 기인한 주기적인 운동이 발생하지만, w/d가 큰 ??9d이상인 경우에는 분류의 불안정성 때문에 규칙적인 분류의 운동은 보이질 않으며, 이는 기존의 연구결과들과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 본 연구에서 적용된 모델을 이용하여 공기와 같은 2원자 기체의 비열비 ??${\gamma}=1.4$를 갖는 유체에 있어서 공력 소음의 수치예측이 가능하다는 것을 확인하였다.

  • The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of 3-D images by comparing and analyzing reconstructed 3-D images from fast spin echo images of MRI cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) images using maximum intensity projection (MIP) with the subtraction images derived from dynamic tests of magnetic resonance mammography. The study targeted 20 patients histologically diagnosed with pancreaticobiliary duct disease and 20 patients showing pancreaticobiliary duct diseases, where dynamic breast MR (magnetic resonance) images, fast spin echo imaged of pancreaticobiliary duct, and 3-D reconstitution images using a 1.5T MR scanner and 3.0T MR scanner were taken. As a result of the study, the signal-to-noise ratio in the subtracted breast image before and after administering the contrast agent and in the reconstructed 3-D breast image showed a high ratio in the reconstructed image of lesional tissue, relevant tissue, and fat tissue. However, no statistically meaningful differences were found in the contrast-to-noise ratio of the two images. In the case of the MRCP image, no differences were found in the ratios of the fast spin echo image and reconstructed 3-D image.

  • Substrate removal efficiency of industrial wastewater from dye plant was investigated with fluidized-bed biofilm reactor(FBBR). Wastewater was diluted by 2, 3 and 6 times for experiment. When F/M ratio was increased 0.2 to 0.3, substrate removal efficiency of wastewater was rapidly decreased in all dilution ratio. Substrate removal efficiency was increased with dilution ratio in same F/M ratio, with hydraulic retention time. In case of 6 times diluted wastewater, below 0.2 F/M ratio, removal efficiency of BOD was $90{\sim}97%$. For reactor design, the parameters such as Y, $k_d$ and r was obtained as follows: $Y=0.3365\;k_d=0.03782\;day^{-1}\;r=0.997$ in 2 times diluted $Y=0.3341\;k_d=0.02750\;day^{-1}\;r=0.996$ in 3 times diluted $Y=0.3365\;k_d=0.03434\;day^{-1}\;r=0.998$ in 6 times diluted

  • Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between 3D visual fatigue and physiological measures by canonical correlation analysis enabling to categorical correlation. Background: Few studies have been conducted to investigate the physiological mechanism underlying the visual fatigue caused by processing 3D information which may make the cognitive mechanism overloaded. However, even the previous studies lack validation in terms of the correlation between physiological variables and the visual fatigue. Method: 9 Female and 6 male subjects with a mean age of $22.53{\pm}2.55$ voluntarily participated in this experiment. All participants were asked to report how they felt about their health sate at after viewing 3D. In addition, Low & Hybrid measurement test(Event Related Potential, Steady-state Visual Evoked Potential) and for evaluating cognitive fatigue before and after viewing 3D were performed. The physiological signal were measured with subjective fatigue evaluation before and after in watching the 3D content. For this study suggesting categorical correlation, all measures were categorized into three sets such as included Visual Fatigue set(response time, subjective evaluation), Autonomic Nervous System set(PPG frequency, PPG amplitude, HF/LF ratio), Central Nervous System set(ERP amplitude P4, O1, O2, ERP latency P4, O1, O2, SSVEP S/N ratio P4, O1, O2). Then the correlation of three variables sets, canonical correlation analysis was conducted. Results: The results showed a significant correlation between visual fatigue and physiological measures. However, different variables of visual fatigue were highly correlated to respective HF/LF ratio and to ERP latency(O2). Conclusion: Response time was highly correlated to ERP latency(O2) while the subjective evaluation was to HF/LF ratio. Application: This study may provide the most significant variables for the quantitative evaluation of visual fatigue using HF/LF ratio and ERP latency based human performance and subjective fatigue.

  • An experiment was carried out to obtain the fundamental data on the auditory thresholds of fishes for catching method using audible frequency sound, the auditory thresholds of dusky spinefoot Siganus fuscescens(Houttuyn) were measured in the presence of masking noise in the spectrum level range of 74 - 83dB re $1{\mu}Pa/{\sqrt{Hz}}$ by heartbeat conditioning technique using pure tones coupled with a delayed electric shock. The auditory critical ratios were about 23 - 34dB at measurement frequency range. The ratio increased almost linearly with increasing frequency from 200 to 500Hz. The noise spectrum level at the start of masking was about 61 - 73dB within the measurement frequency range. This suggests that hearing of dusky spinefoot is masked in the natural environment with the noise spectrum level above 70dB. The sound pressure level of which the signal sound of 100Hz is recognized by dusky spinefoot under the white noise of 70dB is above 98dB and the critical ratio of them is above 23dB.

  • In this paper, circular-polarized dipole antenna with a novel structure is designed, simulated and fabricated for PCS or IMT-2000 base station at an arbitrary test frequency(1.575 GHz). Its radiation pattern is analyzed by means of physical optics(PO). The designed antenna is made up of a horizontal and a vertical dipole elements at a height of λ/4 above an reflector. One of λ/4 length vertical dipole element is located at a height of λ/8 above an reflector. In this case, circularly polarized radiation pattern is obtained by making impedance difference due to adjusting the length of each element. The characteristic of antenna measured from this study is that return loss is 18.4 dB, -10 dB bandwidth is 360 MHz(22.8%), 2 dB axial ratio bandwidth is 30 MHz, -3 dB beamwidth is 76$^{\circ}$, 2 dB axial ratio beamwidth is 58$^{\circ}$, axial ratio is 1.7 dB at 1.575 GHz. Radiation pattern is in well agreement with the result of PO.
