Level 3 PSA(사고결말분석)는 원자력 발전소의 사고 시 누출된 방사성 핵종으로 인해 야기되는 환경 및 인체에 미치는 영향(공중위험도)을 평가하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 원자력 발전소의 중대사고시 환경으로 방출되는 방사성물질의 방출특성과 그 결과로 인체에 미치는 영향에 대하여 확률론적 사고영향분석코드인 MACCS를 이용하여 평가하였다. 이러한 평가는 관련 변수들의 상대적 중요도를 파악하는데 유용할 뿐만 아니라 소외리스크(Offsite Risk)를 최소화시키기 위한 대책개발에 있어 중요한 지표가 될 수 있다. 특히 방출고도, 열 함량, 방출기간의 3가지 중요 변수를 선정하여, 이들 변수들의 변화에 따라 영향을 받는 조기사망자 수와 암 사망자 수의 변화를 분석하였다. 또한, 참조원전의 위험성 평가를 위하여 IPE(Individual Plant Examination)에서 제시된 STC(Source Term Category) 19가지 시나리오에 대한 각 사고별 빈도와 MACCS코드를 수행한 결과값을 이용하여 참조원전의 위험성 평가를 수행하였다.

랜덤 심볼열을 기반으로 한 정보이론적 학습법 (ITL)은 특정 확률분포를 갖도록 랜덤하게 발생시킨 심볼열을 타겟 데이터로 활용하고, 입력 데이터 사이의 확률분포 거리 최소화를 비용함수로 하여 설계된다. 이 방식의 단점으로, 고정상수를 알고리듬 갱신의 스텝사이즈로 사용하므로 입력 전력의 통계적 추이를 활용할 수 없다. 정보포텐셜 출력(information potential output, IPO)와 연관된 기울기에서는 정보포텐셜 입력(information potential input, IPI)이, 정보포텐셜 오차(information potential error, IPE)와 관련된 기울기에서는 입력자체가 입력으로 작용함을 이 연구에서 밝혀내고, 입력의 전력 추이를 따로 계산하여 스텝사이즈 (step size)를 정규화하도록 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리듬은 충격성잡음과 다중경로 페이딩 환경의 통신시스템 실험에서 기존 방식보다 약 4dB 정도 더 낮은 정상상태 오차 전력, 약 2배 이상 빠른 수렴속도를 나타냈다.

Recently, as people's interest in wood has increased, the use of wood as household and landscape decking materials has increased. As the deck material, imported wood such as synthetic wood, Ipe, and Malas was used in addition to the existing preserved wood, but recently deck use has been activated as part of the activation of domestic materials. As an important quality factor in the selection of such decking materials, various durability along with weatherability for long - term use is required for maintenance. Generally used tropical hardwoods have excellent weatherability and durability without additional preservative treatment. However, the domestic larch is a wood species with a higher specific gravity and durability than ordinary conifers. However, it has not yet been used as a deck material due to lack of comparative studies on its characteristics. Therefore, hardness and durability of wood were measured using six specimens of Ipe, Massaranduba, Malas, Douglas-fir, Larch and Torrefied-Larch. Density Profile was used to measure the density, and Brinell hardness test and resistance test against momentary impact were carried out for the test of resistance to static load. Also, The hardness and durability of wood were measured by castor test with resistance test against dynamic load, as well as, nail down test by experiment on surface hardness and durability. As a result of the experiment, the hardness was increased in proportion to the density, and it was confirmed that the imported lumber was harder and durable than the domestic larch.

This study introduces new connections that connect the beam to the column with slit dampers. Plastic deformations and damages concentrate on slit dampers. The slit dampers prevent plastic damages of column, beam, welds and panel zone and act as fuses. The slit dampers were prepared with IPE profiles that had some holes in the webs. In this paper, two experimental specimens were made. In first specimen (SDC1), just one slit damper connected the beam to the column and one IPE profile with no holes connected the bottom flange of the beam to the column. The second specimen (SDC2) had two similar dampers which connected the top and bottom flange of the beam to the column. Cyclic loading was applied on Specimens. The cyclic displacements conditions continued until 0.06 radian rotation of connection. The experimental observations showed that the bending moment of specimen SDC2 increased until 0.04 story drift. In specimen SDC1, the bending moment decreases after 0.03 story drift. Test results indicate the high performance of the proposed connection. Based on the results, the specimen with two slit damper (SDC2) has higher seismic performance and dissipates more energy in loading process than specimen SDC1. Theoretical formulas were extended for the proposed connections. Numerical studies have been done by ABAQUS software. The theoretical and numerical results had good agreements with the experimental data. Based on the experimental and numerical investigations, the high ductility of connection is obtained from plastic damages of slit dampers. The most flexural moment of specimen SDC1 occurred at 3% story drift and this value was 1.4 times the plastic moment of the beam section. This parameter for SDC2 was 1.73 times the plastic moment of the beam section and occurred at 4% story drift. The dissipated energy ratio of SDC2 to SDC1 is equal to 1.51.

We investigated whether ischemic preconditioning (IPC) protects liver against cold ischemic injury using isolated perfused rat liver. Rat livers were preconditioned by 5 minutes of ischemia and 5 minutes of reperfusion and preserved for 30 hours at $4^{\circ}C$ in University of Wisconsin solution. Livers were then reperfused for 120 minutes. Oxygen uptake and bile flow in ischemic livers markedly decreased during reperfusion. These decreases were prevented by IPC. Portal pressure was elevated in cold ischemic and reperfused livers and this elevation was prevented by IPC. Lactate dehydrogenase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase activities markedly increased during reperfusion. These increases were prevented by IPC. The ratio of reduced glutathione to glutathione disulfide was lower in ischemic livers. This decrease was prevented by IPe. Our findings suggest that IPC protects the liver against the deleterious effect of cold ischemia/reperfusion, and this protection is associated with the reduced oxidative stress.

이란산과 국내산 석류를 착즙하여 과즙과 부산물로 버려지는 외피, 내피, 씨의 4부분으로 나누어 기능성 성분과 항산화능을 분석하였다. 석류 부위별 추출물의 기능성 성분 중 총 페놀 함량은 국내산 석류 외피가 210 mg/g${\pm}$8.08로 가장 높았고, 플라보노이드의 함량은 이란산 석류 내피와 이란산 석류 외피가 가장 높았다. Phytoestrogen 함량은 이란산에 비해 국내산 석류 내피에서 96.04 ${\mu}g/mL$로 가장 높게 측정되어 전반적으로 이란산 석류보다 국내산 석류의 기능성 성분의 함량이 높았다. 부위별 석류 에탄올 추출물의 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성과 SOD 유사활성, 환원력은 국내산 석류 내피의 활성이 가장 높았고 superoxide anion 소거활성에서는 이란산 석류 내피의 활성이 가장 높았다. ABTS$^+$ 소거활성에서는 이란산 석류 외피의 항산화능이 가장 높게 측정되었고, 아질산염 소거활성은 국내산 석류 외피추출물이 가장 높았다. 또한 석류의 총 폴리페놀, 플라보노이드, 식물성 에스트로겐의 양이 높을수록 항산화성이 높아 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 이상의 결과에 따르면, 기능성 성분은 국내산 석류에서 함량이 높았고 항산화활성은 각 항산화 측정방법에 따라 조금씩 차이가 있지만 대체적으로 국내산 석류의 항산화능이 높게 분석되었다. 또한 부위별로 비교해 본 결과 석류는 과즙보다 껍질과 씨 부분 특히 내피에 기능성 성분의 함량이 많고 항산화 활성도 높게 나타났다. 따라서 과즙 착즙 시 버려지는 부산물인 석류의 외피와 내피는 기능성 성분 및 항산화성이 우수하여 식품의 산화방지를 위한 천연 항산화제로서의 가치가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Flexural behavior of thin walled steel-concrete composite sections as cross sections for beams is investigated by conducting an experimental study supported by applicable analytical predictions. The experimental study consists of testing up to failure, simply supported beams of effective span 1440 mm under two point loading. The test specimens consisted of composite box and channel (with lip placed on tension side and compression side) sections, the behavior of which was compared with companion empty sections. To understand the role of shear connectors in developing the composite action, some of the composite sections were provided with novel simple bar type and conventional bolt type shear connectors in the shear zone of beams. Two RCC beams having equivalent ultimate moment carrying capacities as that of composite channel and box sections were also considered in the study. The study showed that the strength to weight ratio of composite beams is much higher than RCC beams and ductility index is also more than RCC and empty beams. The analytical predictions were found to compare fairly well with the experimental results, thereby validating the applicability of rigid plastic theory to cold-formed steel concrete composite beams.

This paper details a testing facility ("NATURAL FIRE FACILITY") that allows closely-controlled experimental testing on full-scale sub-frames while reproducing the spatially transient temperature conditions measured in real fires. Using this test facility, an experimental investigation of six steel sub-frames under a natural fire was carried out at the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Coimbra. The main objective of these tests was to provide insight into the influence of these connection types on the behaviour of steel sub-structures under fire. The experimental layout is defined by two thermally insulated HEA300 columns and an unprotected IPE300 beam with 5.7 m span, supporting a composite concrete slab. Beam-to-column connections are representative of the most common joint type used on buildings: welded joints and extended, flush and partial depth plate. Finally, the available results are presented and discussed: evolution of the steel temperature; development of displacements and local deformations and failure modes on the joints zone.

Built-up Double-I (BD-I) columns consist of two hot rolled IPE sections and two cover plates which are welded by fillet welds. In Iran, this type of column is commonly used in braced frames with simple connections and sometimes in low-rise Moment Resisting Frames (MRF) with Welded Flange Plate (WFP) beam-column detailing. To evaluate the seismic performance of WFP connection of I-beam to BD-I column, traditional and modified exterior MRF connections were tested subjected to cyclic prescribed loading of AISC. Test results indicate that the traditional connection does not achieve the intended behavior while the modified connection can moderately meet the requirements of MRF connection. The numerical models of the connections were developed in ABAQUS finite element software and validated with the test results. For this purpose, moment-rotation curves and failure modes of the tested connections were compared with the simulation results. Moreover to avoid improper failure modes, some improvements of the connections were evaluated through a numerical study.
