A spray-on membrane is a material composed of a polymer, and is a spray-type material that is expected to be able to replace materials such as existing shotcrete or sheet membrane for support or waterproofing purposes. In the previous studies, it is expected that the thickness of the support material such as shotcrete can be reduced if the spray-on membrane is additionally installed on the existing cement-based support materials. In this study, a three-point bending test was performed by a spray-on membrane on the high-performance shotcrete on the outside, and comparison was made between the case where high-performance shotcrete and a spray-on membrane were installed. As a result of comparing the values calculated through the standard test and the real-size bending test, there was no significant difference in terms of flexural strength, but it was found that there was a difference in flexural toughness.

The aim of this paper is to understand the blade number effect on vortex turbine performance in the cylindrical vortex chamber below the free water surface. Using the same blade profile, the performance of gravitational vortex turbine is tested each with 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 blades installed at the relative vortex height (y/h_v) ranging from 0.065 to 0.417. The obtained results indicate that the rotation, voltage, current and power increase in the relative vortex height of 0.065 and 0.111 when increasing the number of blades at flow velocity of less than 0.7 m/s. The average power of the 5-blade turbine is more than others. The performance of the 4-blade turbine with a 130 mm diameter installed near the orifice is higher than that of the same number of blades with a 220 mm diameter in the vortex chamber.

The thermo-hydro-mechanical (T-H-M) process is one of major issues in the performance assessment of a high level waste (HLW) repository. An engineering-scale test was planned and its experimental set-up has being installed, to validate the T-H-M behavior in the buffer of a reference disposal system. The experimental set-up consists of 4 major components: the confining cylinder with its hydration water tank, the bentonite block, the heating system, and the sensors and instruments. The monitoring and data acquisition system is employed to control the heater to maintain the temperature of $95^{\circ}C$ at the interface of the heater and bentonite blocks and to collect signals from sensors and instruments installed in the bentonite blocks.

The RTD Bypass Loops at Kori Unit 3&4 will be removed and a new system will be designed and will be installed to replace it. The replacement system provides equal or better performance and eliminates some Persistent problems. The Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) bypass line is eliminated to reduce the radiation exposure to operators and workers. After the elimination, the resistance temperature detectors are installed in scoop of the reactor coolant piping to detect a representative temperature. This study includes safety evaluation, RTD response time Analysis, Uncertainty Analysis, LOCA evaluation and Structural Analysis.

This paper presents a new smart power module for 100[kVA] inverter. In the inverter, the three smart modules are used and those are installed at the each pole of the inverter. Each module receives the switching functions from the inverter main controller, and generates duty ratio for IGBTs' switching of the pole. For the reliable operation of the inverter, CAN communication is used for transferring the switching functions form the main controller to the modules. Experiments verify the performance of the smart power module installed in 100[KVA] inverter.

This paper suggests the new type of a joint torque sensor which is attached at each joint of a manipulator for making compliance. Previous six axis force/torque sensors are high cost and installed end-effector of the manipulator. However, torque on links of previous an end-effector cannot be measured. We design a joint torque sensor that can be fully integrated with an actuator in order to measure applying torque of the manipulator. The sensor system is designed through the structural analysis. The proposed joint torque sensors are installed to the 6 DOF manipulator of a mobile robot for hazardous works and we implemented experiments of measuring applied torque to the manipulator. By the experiment, we proved that the proposed low-cost joint torque sensor gives acceptable performance when we control a manipulator.

A turbo-expander is developed for the regeneration in the expansion process. The turbo-expander operates in the partial admission and supersonic flow, and an axial-type single stage turbine is applied to the turbo-expander. Its outer diameter is 82mm and the operating gas is R134a. A 15kW reciprocating compressor is applied in this experiment and the turbo-expander is installed in the expansion process instead of the commonly using expansion valve. Two supersonic nozzles are applied for the expansion process. The high speed of R 134a after passing the supersonic nozzles gives the impulse force to the turbo-expander and some powers are generated on this process. A generator is installed at the end of the turbo-expander shaft. The generating output power from the turbo-expander is controlled by the power controller. Pressures and temperatures are measured on the lines for the performance investigation. More than 600W/(kg/sec) are generated in this experiment.

Two noise reduction systems are proposed in order to overcome the geometric restriction of the reactive muffler such as an expansion chamber. First, membrane is installed as a part of a duct wall and an air cavity is covered outside membrane. Second, membrane is installed inside a duct, which gives no volume change of the duct. Structural-acoustic coupling between membrane and fluid inside the cavity and duct causes rapid impedance mismatching and thereby reflected wave. Theoretical prediction is conducted by using modal expansion approach. The results are compared with the experimental results, which show better noise reduction performance than an expansion chamber.

In this study, vertical and horizontal accelerometers were installed at the both side of car body and tachometer was installed on the bogie, for the purpose of stability analysis of Korail Airport Express Train during driving. By applying the developed algorithm, the peak-to-peaks of horizontal and vertical acceleration which were matched with location by tachometer were found and compared with the threshold values. The threshold values per velocities which were presented in the "Metro Train Performance Criteria" were applied here. The validity of the developed algorithm was shown by comparing the site investigation and the measured values at frost heave locations.
