This paper describes partial turbulence simulation and validation of the aerodynamic pressures on building models for an open-jet small-scale 12-Fan Wall of Wind (WOW) facility against their counterparts in a boundary-layer wind tunnel. The wind characteristics pertained to the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) mean wind speed profile and turbulent fluctuations simulated in the facility. Both in the wind tunnel and the small-scale 12-Fan WOW these wind characteristics were produced by using spires and roughness elements. It is emphasized in the paper that proper spectral density parameterization is required to simulate turbulent fluctuations correctly. Partial turbulence considering only high frequency part of the turbulent fluctuations spectrum was simulated in the small-scale 12-Fan WOW. For the validation of aerodynamic pressures a series of tests were conducted in both wind tunnel and the small-scale 12-fan WOW facilities on low-rise buildings including two gable roof and two hip roof buildings with two different slopes. Testing was performed to investigate the mean and peak pressure coefficients at various locations on the roofs including near the corners, edges, ridge and hip lines. The pressure coefficients comparisons showed that open-jet testing facility flows with partial simulations of ABL spectrum are capable of inducing pressures on low-rise buildings that reasonably agree with their boundary-layer wind tunnel counterparts.

Frictional forces between soil and structural elements are of vital importance for the foundation engineering. Although numerous studies were performed about the soil-structure interaction in recent years, the approximate relations proposed in the first half of the 20th century are still used to determine the frictional forces. Throughout history, wood was often used as friction piles. Steel has started to be used in the last century. Today, alternatively these materials, FRP (fiber-reinforced polymer) piles are used extensively due to they can serve for long years under harsh environmental conditions. In this study, various ratios of low plasticity clays (CL) were added to the sand soil and compacted to standard Proctor density. Thus, soils with various internal friction angles (${\phi}$) were obtained. The skin friction angles (${\delta}$) of these soils with FRP, which is a composite material, steel (st37) and wood (pine) were determined by performing interface shear tests (IST). Based on the data obtained from the test results, a chart was proposed, which engineers can use in pile design. By means of this chart, the skin friction angles of the soils, of which only the internal friction angles are known, with FRP, steel and wood materials can be determined easily.

Hydraulic engineers and scientists working on river restoration recognize the need for a deeper understanding of natural streams as a complex and dynamic system, which involves not only abiotic elements(flow, sediments) but also biotic components. From this point of view, the role played by riverine vegetation dynamics and flow conditions becomes essential. Hydro-mechanic interaction between flow and flexible plants covering a river bed is studied in this paper and some previous works are discussed. Measurements of turbulence and flow resistance in vegetated open channel were performed using rigid and flexible tube. Measuring detailed turbulent velocity profiles within and above submerged and flexible stems allowed to distinguish different turbulent regimes. Some interesting relationships were obtained between the velocity field and the deflected height of the plants, such as a reduced drag coefficient in the flexible stems. Turbulent intensities and Reynolds stresses were measured showing two different regions : above and inside the vegetation domain. In flexible vegetated open channel, the maximum values of turbulent intensities and Reynolds stresses appear above the top of canopy. Method to predict a flow resistance in flexible vegetated open channel is developed by modifying an analytical model proposed by Klopstra et al. (1997). Calculated velocity profiles and roughness values correspond well with flume experiments. These confirm the applicability of the presented model for open channel with flexible vegetation. The new method will be verified in the real vegetated conditions in the near future. After these verifications, the new method should be applied for nature rehabilitation projects such as river restorations.

차세대 전자 디스플레이 관련 제품의 휴대편리성, 유연성, 경량화, 대형화 등의 요구조건을 확보할 수 있는 유기반도체 소재기반 소프트 일렉트로닉스에 많은 관심이 모아지고 있다. 소프트 일렉트로닉스의 응용분야로는 전자 신문, 전자 책, 스마트카드, RFID 태그, 태양전지, 휴대용 컴퓨터, 센서, 메모리 등이 있으며, 핵심소자는 유기 전계효과 트랜지스터(organic field-effect transistor, OFET)이다. OFET의 고성능화를 위해서는 유기반도체, 절연체, 전극 구성소재들이 최적화 구조를 형성하도록 적층되어야 한다. 필름형성화 과정에서 대부분의 유기반도체 소재는 결합력이 약한 van der Waals 결합으로 자기조립 결정구조를 형성하므로, 이들의 결정성 필름구조는 주위 환경(공정변수 및 기질특성)에 의해 크게 달라진다. 특히 기질의 표면 에너지(surface energy) 및 표면 거칠기(surface roughness)에 따라 유기반도체 박막 내 결정 구조 및 배향 등은 크게 달라져, OFET의 전기적 특성에 큰 차이를 미친다. 유기친화적 절연층 소재 및 표면개질화는 전하이동에 유리하도록 용액 및 증착공정 유기반도체 박막의 결정구조 및 배향을 유도시켜 OFET의 전기적 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다.

Rubber dampers are widely used to damp out vibrations generated in many mechanical elements because of the excellent damping characteristics of rubber. The damping characteristics of rubber is much dependent on temperature and frequency, which, in some cases, limit the effectiveness of rubber dampers. In this study, in order to increase the damping properties and axial and cross stiffnesses of rubber vibration dampers which are used in recording and regenerating devices, solid cores were inserted with interference tolerance in the rubber dampers. The damping characteristics of the rubber dampers with cores were investigated by experimentally and numerically using finite element method with respect to the interference tolerance, the core roughness, the materials of the core and the environmental temperature. From the experimental and theoretical investigations, it was found that the core in the rubber increased both the damping and stiffness of the damper. Also, it was found that the damping and stiffness of the rubber damper were much dependent on the temperature and frequency. Using the results of the experimental and theoretical investigations, the optimum design method for the cored rubber damper for recording and regenerating devices was developed.

In this study, after the installation of a subsea pipeline, backfilling was performed in the trenched area. During these operations, a stability problem in the subsea pipeline occurred. The pipeline was directly impacted by environmental loading such as waves and currents that were caused by backfill material when scouring or sediment transport and siltation was carried out. Therefore, this study reviewed whether trenching was necessary, and conducted research into an indigenous seabed property that contains granular soil. A study of cohesive soil was also conducted in order to cross-correlate after calculating the values of the critical Shields parameter relevant to elements of the external environment such as waves and current, and the shear Shields parameter that depends on the actual shearing stress. In case of 1), sedimentation or erosion does not occur. In the case of 2), partial sedimentation or erosion occurs. If the case is 3), full sedimentation or erosion occurs. Therefore, in the cases of 1) or 2), problems in structural subsea pipeline stability will not occur even if partial sedimentation or erosion occurs. This should be reflected particularly in cases with granular and cohesive soil when a reduction in shear strength occurs by cyclic currents and waves. In addition, since backfilling material does not affect the original seabed shear strength, a set-up factor should be considered to use a reduced of the shear strength in the original seabed.

Wind environment in urban residential areas is an important index to consider when evaluating the living environment. However, due to the complexity of the flow field in residential areas, it is difficult to specify the correct inflow boundary conditions in the large eddy simulation (LES). In this paper, the weighted amplitude wave superposition (WAWS) is adopted to simulate the fluctuating velocity data, which satisfies the desired target wind field. The fluctuating velocity data are given to the inlet boundary of the LES by developing an UDF script, which is implemented into the FLUENT. Then, two numerical models - the empty numerical wind tunnel model and the numerical wind tunnel model with spires and roughness elements are established based on the wind tunnel experiment to verify the present method. Finally, the turbulence generation approach presented in this paper is used to carry out a numerical simulation on the wind environment in an urban residential area in Lisbon. The computational results are compared with the wind tunnel experimental data, showing that the numerical results in the LES have a good agreement with the experimental results, and the simulated flow field with the inlet fluctuations can generate a reasonable turbulent wind field. It also shows that strong wind velocities and turbulent kinetic energy occur at the passageways, which may affect the comfort of people in the residential neighborhood, and the small wind velocities and vortexes appear at the leeward corners of buildings, which may affect the spreading of the pollutants.

시각중심주의에 편향된 근대의 광학적 메커니즘은 시각의 다채로운 기능을 간과하고 추상적이며, 이성적인 눈으로 사물을 판단하고 공간을 조직함으로써 눈이 사물을 더듬는 기능에 대해서는 간과하였다. 최근에는 시각의 이분법적 지각체계를 넘어서 복합지각에 의해 다른 감각과의 소통을 통한 다양한 경험을 유도하고 있다. 촉지적 지각은 시각뿐만 아니라 다양한 감각과의 상호작용을 통해 주체로 하여금 신체를 동반한 체험을 유도하며, 물성이 가지고 있는 특질과 인간의 다양한 감각적 자극을 꾀하는 역동적인 시각이다. 본 논문은 주체의 능동적 체험을 유도하는 촉지적 지각의 이론적 배경을 고찰하여 촉지적 지각의 주요한 특징을 도출하고 촉지적 지각의 특징이 픽처레스크 정원에서 어떠한 방식으로 나타나는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 촉지적 지각의 주요한 특징을 고찰하기 위해 철학과 미학사에서 아돌프 힐데브란트의 시각론이 알로이스 리글과 빌헬름 보링거, 발터 벤야민, 모르스 메를로 퐁티, 질 들뢰즈에 의해 각각 어떻게 발전, 확장, 재해석되는지를 탐구한다. 이로서 촉지적 지각과 시각적 지각 방식의 주요차이점을 분석하고 촉지적 지각이 가지는 특성을 도출한다. 이후, 촉지적 지각의 특성이 픽처레스크 정원에 어떻게 나타나는지 고찰하기 위해 고전적 정원을 시각적 지각으로 픽처레스크 정원을 촉지적 지각으로 각각 설정하여 분석하고 앞서 도출된 촉지적 지각의 특성을 픽처레스크 정원에 투영하여 고찰한다. 본 연구를 통해 도출된 픽처레스크 정원에 나타난 촉지적 지각에 대한 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 시각적 지각과 대별되는 촉지적 지각의 주요차이점은 경계의 모호함과 애매함, 동적시점의 생성, 불확정적 동선에 의한 운동성 유발, 지각 불가능성에 의한 낯설음과 숭고미로 요약할 수 있다. 픽처레스크 정원에서 경계의 모호함과 애매함은 평면의 불규칙함과 비대칭 요소, 단일시점의 거부로 나타나며, 동적시점의 생성은 서사적 구조의 도입과 회화의 장면구성기법을 재현하면서 기존 정원에 없는 전경, 중경, 원경 요소를 만들면서 공간을 중첩시킴으로써 생성된다. 불확정적 동선에 의한 운동성 유발은 분기하는 동선에 의해 형성되며, 지각 불가능성에 의한 낯설음과 숭고미는 정원에서 다양한 요소의 활용과 '거칠음'과 '불규칙함', '폐허'의 도입으로 나타난다.

최근 건설 산업에서는 기능과 조형미를 갖춘 비정형 구조물에 대한 관심과 수요가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 거푸집 기반의 시멘트 구조물은 구조물의 강도, 시공의 용이성, 치수 정확도, 표면 거칠기 등의 측면에서 장점들을 가지고 있지만, 다양한 비정형 구조물을 건설하는 데 있어서는 공사비용과 공사 기간을 증가시키는 한계점이 있다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위하여, 미국과 영국에서는 이미 쾌속 조형 기술을 건설 분야에 적용시킨 Contour Crafting이나 Concrete Printing과 같은 적층 시공 시스템이 산 학 간의 공동연구를 통해 개발되었다. 국내에서는 이에 관련된 연구가 전무하여, 본 기술로부터 융합 및 파생될 수 있는 가능성이 가로막힌 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 거푸집 없이 자유 곡면 형태의 구조물을 시공할 수 있는 자동화 적층 시공 시스템의 프로토타입 개발에 관련된 기계, 제어 시스템을 포함한 설계 요소들에 관하여 기술하였다. 적층형 시공에 적합한 재료는 섬유보강모르타르를 압축강도, 유동성 및 점도, 경화시간 실험을 통하여 선정하였다. 선정한 모르타르 배합비로 자동화 적층 시공 시스템에서 이송 및 압출 실험을 수행함으로써 적층 시공 시스템의 성공적 개발 가능성을 입증하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 기초로 향후 자동화 적층 시공 시스템을 보완한다면 토목 및 건축의 다양한 응용 분야에 확대하여 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
