시멘트 모르타르를 이용하여 제작한 압축강도 및 거칠기가 다른 25 종류의 인공절리 모델에 대하여 절리면 전단시험을 실시하였다. 절리면 전단시험은 통상적으로 시행되는 다단계 시험과 ISRM에서 제안된 시험을 사용하였으며, 두 시험간의 마찰각 차이, 다단계 시험의 유용성, 측정된 결과에 대한 경험식과의 비교 연구를 시행하였다. 다단계 시험에서 측정된 마찰각은 ISRM 시험에서 측정된 마찰각보다 약 $6.4^{\circ}$ 낮은 값을 보이며, 시험편의 압축강도와 거칠기가 변화하여도 두 시험에서 측정된 마찰각의 차이는 일정한 값을 보여 다단계 시험은 유용한 것으로 판단된다. 절리면에 가해진 수직응력에 대한 전단응력의 관계를 나타내는 여러 가지 경험식과 본 연구에서 측정된 결과를 비교한 결과 ISRM 시험에 의해 결과는 Patton의 경험식과 유사하고, 다단계 시험에 의한 결과는 Barton의 경험식과 유사한 결과를 보인다.

Carbon dioxide enrichment for greenhouse crops has generally been a standard commercial practice for many years. Vegetable crops such as tomato, cucumber, and lettuce respond positively to the $CO_2$ enrichment. But improper $CO_2$ enrichment leads to physiological damage and economical loss. This study was carried out to develop a $CO_2$ concentration control algorithm considering growth stage and efficiency. The measurand was $CO_2$ consumption rate and top fresh weight that represents growth stage. The weight of top fresh lettuce as a whole in the tray was measured through a non-destructive method. The demand in $CO_2$ concentration according to growth stage was investigated. The results are summarized as follows. 1. The $CO_2$ consumption rate could be measured within the error of $\pm$ 15.4mg$CO_2$/hr in the range of $CO_2$ concentration of 500-1500ppm. 2. The weight of top fresh lettuce could be measured within the error $\pm$ 4.3g in the range of 0-1400g. 3. The $CO_2$ control model developed could determine an economical $CO_2$ supply rate considering $CO_2$ consumption rate and leakage rate. 4. The $CO_2$ control algorithm based on the control model was composed of feedforward control for maintaining a stable $CO_2$ concentration level, and feedback control with $CO_2$ consumption rate and top fresh weight for adapting to the change in $CO_2$ demand by growth stage. 5. For the performance test with the developed control algorithm on lettuce the decrease in $CO_2$ supply rate was obtained without a significant decrease in top fresh weight.

We report on the design and fabrication of an electrostatic 2-axis MEMS stage possessing a platform with a size of $5{times}5mm^2$. The stage, as a key component, would be used in developing probe-based storage devices in the future. It was fabricated by forming numerous $5{\times}5{\mu}m^2$ etching holes in the central platform, as a result, reducing the total number of masks to 1, thereby simplifying the whole fabrication process. Experimental results show that the driving range of the stage was $32{\mu}m$ at the supplied voltage of 20V and the natural frequency was approximately 300Hz. The mechanical coupling between x- and y-motion was also measured and verified to be $25\%$.

Learning has become an important aspect for any organization to stay relevant and competitive in the corporate world of survival. In construction industry, the international construction joint ventures (ICJVs) provide an excellent platform with opportunity of learning among partners seeking to develop new area of competency and improve their overall competitiveness for their next project endeavor. This paper discusses the development of a conceptual model of effective learning in ICJVs using four major stages of development in a typical joint venture (JV) 's process. The study identified that there are three key constructs that contribute to effective learning comprising learning conditions in the JV's pre-inception stage, success factors of JV for learning in the forming & organizing stage, and learning actions in the implementation & adjustment stage. The effective learning outcomes are measured by the characteristics of learning organization during the JV's completion & evaluation stage. Details and issues of each stage and the methodology of research will be presented and discussed.

Objective: To characterize the changes in right ventricular (RV) volume, volume load, and function measured with cardiac computed tomography (CT) over the entire time course of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Materials and Methods: In 374 patients with TOF, the ventricular volume, ventricular function, and RV volume load were measured with cardiac CT preoperatively (stage 1), after palliative operation (stage 2), after total surgical repair (stage 3), or after pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) (stage 4). The CT-measured variables were compared among the four stages. After total surgical repair, the postoperative duration (POD) and the CT-measured variables were correlated with each other. In addition, the demographic and CT-measured variables in the early postoperative groups were compared with those in the late postoperative and the preoperative group. Results: Significantly different CT-based measures were found between stages 1 and 3 (indexed RV end-diastolic volume [EDV], 63.6 ± 15.2 mL/m² vs. 147.0 ± 38.5 mL/m² and indexed stroke volume (SV) difference, 7.7 ± 10.3 mL/m² vs. 32.2 ± 16.4 mL/m²; p < 0.001), and between stages 2 and 3 (indexed RV EDV, 72.4 ± 19.7 mL/m² vs. 147.0 ± 38.5 mL/m² and indexed SV difference, 5.7 ± 13.1 mL/m² vs. 32.2 ± 16.4 mL/m²; p < 0.001). After PVR, the effect of RV volume load (i.e., indexed SV difference) was reduced from 32.2 mL/m² to 1.7 mL/m². Positive (0.2 to 0.8) or negative (-0.2 to -0.4) correlations were found among the CT-based measures except between the RV ejection fraction (EF) and the RV volume load parameters. With increasing POD, an early rapid increase was followed by a slow increase and a plateau in the indexed ventricular volumes and the RV volume load parameters. Compared with the preoperative data, larger ventricular volumes and lower EFs were observed in the early postoperative period. Conclusion: Cardiac CT can be used to characterize RV volume, volume load, and function over the entire time course of TOF.

For heat pumps used in a cold region, it is very important to obtain appropriate heating capacity. Several studies using a variable speed compressor and an additional heater have been performed to enhance heating capacity at low ambient temperatures. However, for outdoor temperature conditions below $-15^{\circ}C$, it is still difficult to obtain enough heating capacity above the rated value. In recent studies, the application of gas injection technique into a two-stage heat pump yielded noticeable heating performance improvement at low temperature conditions. In this study, the heating performance of a two-stage gas injection heat pump with a rated capacity of 3.5 kW was measured and analyzed by varying refrigerant charge amount and EEV opening at the standard heating condition. The heating performance of the two-stage gas injection heat pump was compared with that of a two-stage non-injection heat pump. The heating capacity and COP of the two-stage gas injection heat pump were improved by 2-10% at the optimal charging condition over those of the two-stage non-injection heat pump.

Since the cooling performance of a $CO_2$ cooling cycle is varied significantly with a variation of refrigerant charge amount and outdoor temperature, the reliability of $CO_2$ system is down. In this study, the performance characteristics of three kinds of $CO_2$ systems were measured and analyzed by varying refrigerant charge amount and outdoor temperature so as to study the characteristics of variation with cycle option. The applied system options are the single-stage compression(1C-1E) system, two-stage compression with 1-EEV(2C-1E) system, and two-stage compression with 2-EEV(2C-2E) system. The performances of two-stage compression with 2-EEV system were less sensitive than those of other systems and the system operated safely and steadily for wide charge amount. The performance of the two-stage compression with 1-EEV(2C-1E) system was the most sensitive to the charge amount, and that of the single-stage compression(1C-1E) system varied a lot with outdoor temperature.

Deep drawing of cylindrical cups is one of the most fundamental and important processes in sheet metal forming. Circular cups are widely used in industrial fields such as automobile and electronic appliances. Some of these cups are formed by a one-stage process, others such as battery cases and beverage cans are made by a multi-stage process. In the current study the multi-stage deep drawing of aluminum sheet metal is examined. The process consists of two deep drawing operations followed by two ironing operations. The press die, which can be used for the four-stage forming process, was manufactured allowing punch and die components to be easily changed for various experiments. The rolling direction of both the sheet and the drawn cups was always positioned toward the horizontal x-direction on the die face to minimize experimental errors during the progressive forming. The dimensional accuracy of the cylindrical cups formed at each stage and the earing defect due to the anisotropy of sheet were investigated. The influence of anisotropy on the thickness distribution was also examined. Both the thickness and the outer diameter of the cups were measured and compared for each set of experimental conditions. It was found that the dimensional accuracy of cups rapidly improves by employing the ironing process and also by increasing the amount of ironing.
