This paper presents the test results to evaluate the healthiness of the ballast in subway. The test includes the dynamic load test in servicing Line the screen classification test of aggregates and the wear test. From the results, the aspect and the property of the ballast are evaluated. The dynamic load tests explain the relationship between the deterioration of the ballast and the fluctuation of loads. The assessment of impact factor based on the field test results in a good property of test blocks is proposed.

Field tests were conducted to investigate effects of a rail joint on the dynamic behavior of railway bridge. A four-span simpled supported plate girder bridge which has a rail joint on the third span was selected for tests. At the operating train loading, the induced vibration of the first and third span has been examined. The dynamic magnification ratio was used for quantitative analysis of impact effects caused by rail joint. The result of tests show that dynamic behavior of railway bridge picked up considerably due to a rail joint.

Floor impact sound has caused many acoustical complaints to the apartment building dwellers. The concrete floating floor construction is one of the most reasonable way to reduce floor impact sound. Recently, many damping materials are used in apartment buildings. In this study, to evaluate floor impact sound insulation performance, field tests were carried at five building floors with damping materials. The test results of impact sound insulation performance for five buildings showed good improvement in light weight impact sound after installation of damping materials, but heavy weight impact sound wasn't improved.

Glass/phenolic composite laminates have been used in the field of non-flammable light rail transit and their applications have expanded more widely. Low velocity impact tests have been used to evalute the effect of temperature and acceleration aging on low velocity impact response of phenolic matrix composites reinforced with woven E-glass fabric. The damage of matrix cracking and delamination are suddenly reduced the compressive strength after impact. The damage area increases with increasing temperature and impact energy. UT C-scan is used to determine damage areas by impact loading. Therefore, all this observations indicate reduced impact damage resistance and damage tolerance of the laminates at elevated temperature.

Compaction of asphalt pavement is one of the important processes to make good quality one. There are many laboratory-compaction methods to simulate field compaction, including Marshall compaction, Hveem compaction, gyratory compaction, and etc. The most common method used to determine the fundamental properties of asphalt mixture for design is Marshall method which is using impact energy. However, there is major difference between field compaction using kneading compaction and Marshall compaction using impact energy. Therefore, the gyratory compactor, which currently is the best to simulate the field compaction, was employed. The fundamental properties of asphalt specimen compacted by gyratory compactor and Marshall compactor were determined using laboratory test. From the tests, slag mixture with carbon black or pyrolyzed carbon black showed better performances, such as, in low susceptibility to temperature, high resistance against water and rutting, and high resilient modulus and indirect tensile strength.

The composite materials are widely used in the many applications of industry as well as aerospace field because of their high specific stiffness and strength which benefits the material and provides potential energy savings. However, composite materials also have a low property about external applied impact. In this paper, impact tests were conducted on different sample types(glass, carbon and kevlar composite) to obtain information such as absorbed energy and composite deformation using an instrumented impact test machine (DYNATUP 8250). 3 type samples were compared to experimental results. The data from impact test provided valuable information between the different type samples by wet lay up. This paper shows results of that kevlar composite has larger absorption energy and deformation than others.

Since the turnout system in railroad restricts the train speed, the KNR (Korean National Railroad) provides the specification for the speed (130km/h) of the train when the train passes the turnout system. Therefore, the turnout system in pre-existing railroad is necessary to be improved to speed-up for the train. In this study, the dynamic wheel-load field tests have been performed to evaluate the track performance and the roadbed bearing capacity has been examined using numerical analysis at the turnout crossing in the conventional and improved turnout system. The impact factor is estimated using the data sets achieved from the dynamic wheel-load field tests in the conventional and improved turnout system. The stress acting on the roadbed for the improved turnout system is substantially decreased compare to that for the conventional turnout system.

It is difficult for a MWR(Missile Warning Radar) to perform a threat decision accurately since there is no tracking part which gives more accurate threat information to the MWR. In this paper, the threat decision algorithm is proposed using an azimuth angular rate to improve the accuracy. The azimuth angular rate is dependent upon the direction of an approaching target. The target is classified into a threat or non-threat using a boundary condition of the azimuth angular rate. The boundary condition is determined using the Monte-Carlo simulation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated using this condition at field tests of MWR. The efficiency of the proposed method for the threat decision is proved by comparing the results of field tests with the simulation results.

Purpose : This study aims to identify the factors influencing field adaptation among nurses who have undergone department transfers, by examining the levels of and the relationships between their nursing work environment, interpersonal skills, grit, and field adaptation. Methods : The study involved 137 nurses who had experienced at least one department transfer within the last three years across two hospitals. Data analysis was performed using SPSS/WIN 29.0, involving descriptive statistics, means, standard deviations, independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé post-hoc tests, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis (enter method). Results : Factors affecting field adaptation included the nursing work environment (β=.37, p<.001), interpersonal skills (β=.19, p=.021) and grit (β=.18, p=.025), with a total explanatory power of 31% (F=12.16, p<.001). Conclusion : This study contributes insights into effective nursing personnel management, offers foundational data for managing department transfers, and aims to improve the overall quality of nursing care.
