PURPOSES : A geo-grid pavement, e.g., a stress-absorbing membrane interlayer (SAMI), can be applied to an asphalt-overlay method on the existing surface-pavement layer for pavement maintenance related to reflection cracking. Reflection cracking can occur when a crack in the existing surface layer influences the overlay pavement. It can reduce the pavement life cycle and adversely affect traffic safety. Moreover, a failed overlay can reduce the economic value. In this regard, the objective of this study is to evaluate the bonding properties between the rigid pavement and a SAMI by using the direct shear test and the pull-off test. The predicted fractural energy functions with the shear stress were determined from a numerical analysis of the moving average method and the polynomial regression method. METHODS : In this research, the shear and pull-off tests were performed to evaluate the properties of mixtures constructed using no interlayer, a tack-coat, and SAMI with fabric and without fabric. The lower mixture parts (describing the existing pavement) were mixed using the 25-40-8 joint cement-concrete standard. The overlay layer was constructed especially using polymer-modified stone mastic asphalt (SMA) pavement. It was composed of an SMA aggregate gradation and applied as the modified agent. The sixth polynomial regression equation and the general moving average method were utilized to estimate the interlayer shear strength. These numerical analysis methods were also used to determine the predictive models for estimating the fracture energy. RESULTS : From the direct shear test and the pull-off test results, the mixture bonded using the tack-coat (applied as the interlayer between the overlay layer and the jointed cement concrete) had the strongest shear resistance and bonding strength. In contrast, the SAMI pavement without fiber has a strong need for fractural energy at failure. CONCLUSIONS : The effects of site-reflection cracking can be determined using the same tests on cored specimens. Further, an empirical-mechanical finite-element method (FEM) must be done to understand the appropriate SAMI application. In this regard, the FEM application analy pavement-design analysis using thesis and bonding property tests using cored specimens from public roads will be conducted in further research.

본 연구는 관측된 단일 강우-유출사상으로부터 최적화 모형과 추계학적 기법을 결합하여 침투율 공식의 최적매개변수와 단위도를 결정하였다. 수문계측유역에서의 최적 단위도와 침투율을 결정하기 위하여 관측 유출수문곡선과 계산치의 절대오차누계를 최소화하는 모형과 절대최대오차를 최소화하는 선형계획모형을 정립하였다. 손실율의 매개변수를 섭동하기 위하여 추계학적 최적화방법 중의 하나인 Multistart 알고리즘을 채택하였다. Multistart는 분석가능영역을 효과적으로 탐사하여 Kostiakov, Philip, Horton 공식의 최적매개변수를 결정하였다. 유역평균침투능 $\Phi$지표를 적용하면 유일한 단위도의 종거가 결정되지만, Kostiakov, Philip, Horton 및 Green-Ampt공식은 매개변수의 값에 따라 단위도의 종거와 침투율은 달라진다. Green-Ampt공식의 매개변수는 시산법을 적용하여 결정하였다. 제안한 방법의 적용성을 검정하기 위하여 강우-유출 관측자료를 보유한 유역에 관하여 침투식의 매개변수와 단위도를 결정하였으며, 이전 연구자들의 결과보다는 나은 해를 구하였다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the flow resistance of the bottom pair trawl nets. The bottom pair trawl nets being used in fishing vessel (100G/T, 550ps) was selected as a full-scale net, and 1/10, 1/25 and 1/50 of the model nets were made. Converted into the full-scale net by Tauti's modeling rule and Kim's modeling rule, when resistance coefficient k of each net was calculated by substituting into above equation for flow resistance R and wall area of nets S values of each net ${\upsilon}$. Because resistant coefficient k decreases exponentially according as flow velocity ${\upsilon}$ increases to make $k=c{\upsilon}^{-m}$, c and m values of each net were compared. As a result, as the model was smaller, c and m values was smaller in the two rule into standard of 1/10 model value, decrease degree of 1/25 model was almost same in the two rule, decrease degree of 1/50 model was very big in Tauti's modeling rule. Therefore, in the result of experiment, because average of c and m values for similarly 1/10 and 1/25 model were given $c=4.9(kgf{\cdot}s^2/m^4)$ and m=0.45, R (kgf) of bottom pair trawl net could show $R=4.9S{\upsilon}^{1.55}$ using these values. As in the order of cod-end, wing and bag part for 1/25 and 1/50 model net were removed in turn, measured flow resistance of each, converted into the full-scale, total resistance of the net and the resistance of each part net were calculated. The resistance ratio of each part for total net was not same in 1/25 and 1/50 model each other, but average of two nets was perfectly same area ratio of each part as the wing, bag and cod-end part was 43%, 45% and 12%. However, the resistance of each part divided area of the part, calculated the resistance of per unit area, wing and bag part were not big difference each other, while the resistance of cod-end part was very large.

Purpose: This study (a) investigated the effect of microwave power intensity and sample thickness on microwave drying characteristics of radish strips, and (b) determined the best-fit drying model for describing experimental drying data, effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$), and activation energy ($E_a$) for all drying conditions. Methods: A domestic microwave oven was modified for microwave drying and equipped with a small fan installed on the left upper side for removing water vapor during the drying process. Radishes were cut into two fixed-size strip shapes (6 and 9 mm in thickness). For drying experiments, the applied microwave power intensities ranged from 180 to 630 W at intervals of 90 W. Six drying models were evaluated to delineate the experimental drying curves of both radish strip samples. The effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) was determined from Fick's diffusion method, and the Arrhenius equation was applied to calculate the activation energy ($E_a$). Results: The drying time was profoundly decreased as the microwave power intensity was increased regardless of the thickness of the radish strips; however, the drying rate of thicker strips was faster than that of the thinner strips up to a certain moisture content of the strip samples. The majority of the applied drying models were suitable to describe the drying characteristics of the radish strips for all drying conditions. Among the drying models, based on the model indices, the best model was the Page model. The range of estimated $D_{eff}$ for both strip samples was from $2.907{\times}10^{-9}$ to $1.215{\times}10^{-8}m^2/s$. $E_a$ for the 6- and 9-mm strips was 3.537 and 3.179 W/g, respectively. Conclusions: The microwave drying characteristics varied depending on the microwave power intensity and the thickness of the strips. In order to produce high-quality dried radish strips, the microwave power intensity should be lower than 180 W.

The temperature dependence of the effective magnetic anisotropy constant K(T) of ferrite nanoparticles is obtained based on the measurements of SQUID magnetometry. For this end, a very simple but intuitive and direct method for determining the temperature dependence of anisotropy constant K(T) in nanoparticles is introduced in this study. The anisotropy constant at a given temperature is determined by associating the particle size distribution f(r) with the anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$. In order to estimate the particle size distribution f(r), the first quadrant part of the hysteresis loop is fitted to the classical Langevin function weight-averaged with the log?normal distribution, slightly modified from the original Chantrell's distribution function. In order to get an anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$, the temperature dependence of magnetization decay $M_{TD}$ of the sample is measured. For this measurement, the sample is cooled from room temperature to 5 K in a magnetic field of 100 G. Then the applied field is turned off and the remanent magnetization is measured on stepwise increasing the temperature. And the energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$ is obtained by differentiating the magnetization decay curve at any temperature. It decreases with increasing temperature and finally vanishes when all the particles in the sample are unblocked. As a next step, a relation between r and $T_B$ is determined from the particle size distribution f(r) and the anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$. Under the simple assumption that the superparamagnetic fraction of cumulative area in particle size distribution at a temperature is equal to the fraction of anisotropy energy barrier overcome at that temperature in the anisotropy energy barrier distribution, we can get a relation between r and $T_B$, from which the temperature dependence of the magnetic anisotropy constant was determined, as is represented in the inset of Fig. 1. Substituting the values of r and $T_B$ into the $N{\acute{e}}el$-Arrhenius equation with the attempt time fixed to $10^{-9}s$ and measuring time being 100 s which is suitable for conventional magnetic measurement, the anisotropy constant K(T) is estimated as a function of temperature (Fig. 1). As an example, the resultant effective magnetic anisotropy constant K(T) of manganese ferrite decreases with increasing temperature from $8.5{\times}10^4J/m^3$ at 5 K to $0.35{\times}10^4J/m^3$ at 125 K. The reported value for K in the literatures is $0.25{\times}10^4J/m^3$. The anisotropy constant at low temperature region is far more than one order of magnitude larger than that at 125 K, indicative of the effects of inter?particle interaction, which is more pronounced for smaller particles.

동축 도파관 안테나에 접촉된 생체의 SAR 패턴을 계산하였고, 여기서 사용한 생체는 균질 및 4층 손실 인체 모델이다. 본 연구에서는 유한차분법 알고리즘과 MUR 및 GPML 흡수경계조건 방정식을 원통좌표계에서 유도 하였다. 또한 매개체에서 홉수전력 패턴을 얻기 위하여 동축 도파판 안테나와 생체모텔 사이의 결합을 유한차분 법에서 MUR과 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용하여 해석하였다. 온도분포와 일치하는 SAR 분포는 MUR 및 G GPML 홉수경계조건을 사용한 유한차분법에서 정상상태 응답올 사용하여 각 영역에서 계산하였다. MUR 홉수 경계조건을 사용한 유한차분법의 SAR 패턴을 GPML 홉수경계조건을 사용한 유한차분볍의 SAR 패턴과 비교 하였다. 비교 결과, MUR 흡수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴의 침투 깊이가 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용한 S SAR 패턴의 침투 깊이보다 더 깊다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 현상은 GPML 흡수경계조건에서는 자유공간 의 손실을 고려했기 때문이다. 그렇지만 GPML 흡수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴의 측방향으로의 퍼짐이 M MUR 홉수경계조건을 사용한 SAR 패턴보다 더 작다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

물에 잠긴 얇은 벽은 잠제 사각형 블록의 극단적인 경우라고 할 수 있으며, 하천이나 해안지역에서 다양한 목적으로 사용될 수 있다. 잠제구조물의 얇은 벽 주위 흐름과 압력을 계산하기 위하여 동수압이 포함된 ${\sigma}$-격자체계의 3차원 수치모델을 수행하였고, 그 주변의 유속 흐름을 파악하였다. ${\sigma}$-격자체계는 완경사 하상에 유동 시뮬레이션을 적용할 수 있는 강력한 장점을 가지고 있다. 반면에 ${\sigma}$-격자체계는 하상에 날카로운 구조물등에 대한 해석에는 한계를 갖고 있다. 동압력 계산은 직교격자 시스템에서만 유효하다. CST3D시스템 내에 SOLA 기법을 ${\sigma}$-격자체계에 맞게 수정하여 채택하였다. 모델은 2차원 수조에서의 1차원 전자자기식유속계를 통한 관측자료를 통하여 검증하였고, 정수압 가정의 ${\sigma}$-격자체계 수치모형과의 비교를 통하여 정량적인 비교 검토를 수행하였다. 전체적으로 계산된 수평유속과 측정된 수평유속이 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 수리모형실험을 통한 관측자료의 결과를 수치모형이 10% 이내로 정확하게 모의하였고, 관측자료와 대조하였을시 와도의 분포를 유사하게 재현하였다. 수정 SOLA 방식을 채택하여 동수압이 고려되었고, ${\sigma}$-격자체계에 적용한 본 연구는 실제 관측자료를 잘 재현하였으며, 하구, 하천등의 구조물 주변에서의 유속분포를 검증할 시 매우 유용한 것으로 판단된다.

독일 중부(Solling Hills)의 가문비림 임관의 구조적인 수분증산 통도특성은 LE와 H의 유동량으로 측정되고, 1996년 6월중 재배열된 Penman-Monteith 식을 이용하여 SVAT 모형을 설계하여 도출하였다. 또한 SLODSVAT 모형을 통한 전체 임관 내 각 침엽의 연속적인 수분통도성을 평가하여 임관기공의 통도성을 비교하였다. 이와 같은 결과에서 나온 임관 표면 통도성과 유동량을 설계하고, SLODSVAT 모형에 의해 설계된 기공 통도성 사이에서 중요한 차이점을 알 수 있었다. 이 차이점은 산림 임관의 범위내에 빗물리적인 요소에 의해 영향을 받았음을 알 수 있으며, 일반적으로 임관 표변의 통도성은 전체 측정 기간 동안 임관 기공 전도력보다 크게 나타났다. 또한 산림의 전체 증발산량에 대한 하층부의 공헌도는 작았고, 임관의 복사에너지 균형에 의존하지는 않는 것으로 나타났다. 하층부 증발산량의 기각은 독일 가문비림에 대한 임관 표면 전도력의 과대 평가로서 나타난 결과이다.
