매년 증가하는 화학사고는 유해 물질의 확산과 잔류로 인명과 환경에 피해를 주고 있다. 환경피해 조사는 지리적 조사 범위와 시기를 확정하기가 더 까다로운 측면이 있다. 전문 조사 인력이 부족한 현실을 감안할 때 효율적인 정량 평가방법의 개발이 시급하다. 본 연구는 이러한 상황의 개선을 위해 각종 센서를 장착한 드론을 활용하여 화학사고 현장 조사를 수행하였다. 화학사고로 인한 환경 피해면적은 고해상도 광학 영상을 사진측량기법을 적용하여 생성된 정사영상과 다중분광센서로 취득한 5개 분광대역 정보를 활용한 정규식생지수를 적용하여 산출되었다. 그 결과, 정규식생지수를 토대로 피해지역과 비피해지역으로 분류하고, 화학사고로 인한 피해면적에 대한 일치도를 나타내는 Kappa 상관계수는 0.649 (임계값 0.7)의 수준을 보였다. 다양한 반사특성을 가진 지형지물이 존재하는 피해 현장의 여건을 고려할 때, 분광정보와 정규식생지수만으로 피해면적을 분석이 이루어진 연구의 한계가 있으며, 향후 이를 극복할 수 있는 화학물질사고 조사 현업화 방안의 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study is to diagnose causes of damage and defects on external walls of brick structures, focused on "Naju Noahn" Catholic Church of Modern Architectural Properties. The causes of crack and deflection are overloading, shortage strength of arch. Among those, main cause is cauesd by shortage strength of arch because center of arch is dislocated and skew back of arch is small angle. The causes of damage and elimination are weathering, plants of friction, freezing and thawing, durability decrement of material and attach defection. This defects and damage is caused by high-moisture that occurs in soil. The causes of discoloration are change of soil moisture and flimsy brickwork. These defects and damage are mainly occurred in coping of cornice, weathering of window sill.

Phenanthrene ($C_{14}H_{10}$) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with three aromatic rings, and it can be produced by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. Comet assay was used to examine the oxidative DNA damage of lymphocytes by phenanthrene and to measure the suppressive effects of ginseng extract on the DNA damage in this investigation. The in vitro oxidative DNA damage by phenanthrene increased in a dose-dependent manner in the lymphocyte. However, the DNA damage was significantly inhibited by ascorbate. Moreover, pretreatment, cotreatment and posttreatment with ginseng extract enhanced lymphocyte resistance to the phenanthrene-induced DNA damage. Phenanthrene enhanced the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species, and the elevated reactive oxygen species level was reduced by treatment with ginseng extract.

Following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA), prestressing concrete containment vessels (PCCVs) may experience high thermal load as well as internal pressure. The high temperature stress would increase the risk of premature damage to the containment, which reduces the safety margin during the increasing internal pressure. However, current investigations cannot clearly address the issues of thermal-pressure coupling effect on damage propagation and thus safety of the containment. Thus, this paper offers three simple and powerful damage parameters to differentiate the severity of damage of the containment. Moreover, despite of the temperature action severely threatening the pressure performance of the containment, the research regarding the improvement of the resistant performance of the containment is quite scarce. Therefore, in this paper, a comprehensive comparison of damage propagation and mechanism between conventional and fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) containments is performed. The effects of fiber characteristics parameters on damage propagation of structures following the LOCA are also specifically revealed. It is found that the proposed damage indices can properly indicate state of damage in the containment body and the addition of fiber can be used to obviously mitigate the damage propagation in PCCV considering the thermal-pressure coupling.

한반도 주변에는 백두산, 아소산, 사쿠라지마산, 키카이산 등이 분포하고 있으며 최근 백두산의 분화 징후가 급증하고 있어 겨울철 분화 시 계절풍에 따라 화산재가 유입될 수 있는 피해가 우려되고 있다. 따라서 화산재 확산 및 피해에 대한 조사 및 대책에 대한 구체적인 절차가 필요하지만 우리나라 국가법령정보센터에서 제시하는 화산재 주의보 및 경보는 '피해가 예상될 때'와 '심각한 피해가 예상될 때'로 기준이 모호하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 피해발생 임계치를 분석하고 국외 피해사례를 국내에 적용하기 위하여, 공신력있는 공공기관의 국내 공간정보 구축 현황 조사를 수행하였다. 국외 화산재 피해 조사 결과 각 국가의 생활 형태나 수입원에 따라 피해사례가 자세히 작성된 부분이 상이하였다. 따라서 국외 화산재 피해 사례를 국내에 집적으로 적용하는 것이 아니라, 국내의 사회환경 및 자연환경의 특징을 반영한 공간정보 분석을 수행하였고 우리나라 화산재 피해발생시 고려해야 할 매체를 선정하였다. 최종적으로 국내 화산재 피해내역은 보건, 주거, 도로, 철도, 항공, 전력, 수도, 농업, 축산, 산림 그리고 토양으로 분류하는 것이 적합할 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구는 국내외 화산재 피해가 발생했을 경우 공신력 있는 공간정보를 활용해 피해 항목을 정리 했다는 것에 의미가 있으며, 향후 우리나라에 최적화된 화산재 경보 수립할 때 본 연구에서 조사한 국외 화산재 피해사례 및 국내 공간정보구축 현황은 정책수립에 도움이 될 것이다.

Detection of damages in fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) composite structures is important from the safety and serviceability point of view. Usually, damage is realized as a local reduction of stiffness and if dynamic responses of the structure are sensitive enough to such changes in stiffness, then a well posed inverse problem can provide an efficient solution to the damage detection problem. Usually, such inverse problems are solved within the framework of pattern recognition. Support Vector Machine (SVM) Algorithm is one such methodology, which minimizes the weighted differences between the experimentally observed dynamic responses and those computed using the finite element model- by optimizing appropriately chosen parameters, such as stiffness. A damage detection strategy is hereby proposed using SVM which perform stepwise by first locating and then determining the severity of the damage. The SVM algorithm uses simulations of only a limited number of damage scenarios and trains the algorithm in such a way so as to detect damages at unknown locations by recognizing the pattern of changes in dynamic responses. A rectangular fiber reinforced plastic composite plate has been investigated both numerically and experimentally to observe the efficiency of the SVM algorithm for damage detection. Experimentally determined modal responses, such as natural frequencies and mode shapes are used as observable parameters. The results are encouraging since a high percentage of damage cases have been successfully determined using the proposed algorithm.

In this paper the accumulation of local damage during the cyclic loading in reinforced high-strength concrete columns is experimentally investigated. Two identical column specimens with annular cross-section and spiral reinforcement were designed and two tests, up to failure, under the action of a constant vertical concentrated force and a time-dependent concentrated horizontal force, were carried out at the LNEC shaking tables facility. Sine type signals, controlled in amplitude, frequency and time duration were used for these experiments. The concept of local damage based on local stiffness degradation is considered in detail and illustrated by experimental results. The specimens were designed and reinforced in such a way that the accumulation of damage was predicted by dominating deformations (cracking and crushing of the concrete) while the increasing of the loading values was a dominating factor of damage. It was observed that the local damage of HSC columns has exposed their anisotropic local behaviour. The damage accumulation was slightly different from the expected in accordance with the continuum damage concept, and a partial random character was observed.

Electrochemical characteristics and damage behavior of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy used as a battery housing material for electric vehicles were investigated in solution simulating the acid rain environment with chloride concentrations. Potentiodynamic polarization test was performed to analyze electrochemical characteristics. Damage behavior was analyzed through Tafel analysis, measurement of damage area, weight loss, and surface observation. Results described that corrosion current density was increased rapidly when chloride concentration excceded 600 PPM, and it was increased about 7.7 times in the case of 1000 PPM compared with 0 PPM. Potentiodynamic polarization experiment revealed that corrosion damage area and mass loss of specimen increased with chloride concentrations. When chloride concentration was further increased, the corrosion damage area extended to the entire surface. To determine damage tendency of pitting corrosion according to chloride concentration, the ratio of damage depth to width was calculated. It was found that the damage tendency decreased with chloride concentrations. Thus, 6061-T6 aluminum alloy damage becomes larger in the width direction than in the depth direction when a small amount of chloride is contained in an acid rain environment.

This paper investigates the role of the masonry infills on the correlation between widely used earthquake Intensity Measures (IMs) and the damage state of 3D R/C buildings taking into account the orientation of the seismic input. For the purposes of the investigation an extensive parametric study is conducted using 60 R/C buildings with different heights, structural systems and masonry infills' distributions. The results reveal that the correlation between the IMs and the seismic damage can be strongly affected by the masonry infills' distribution, depending on the special characteristics of the structural system, the number of stories and the incident angle.
