  • 최근 산림지 및 조림지역에의 축산 분뇨 액비 처리가 자연순환농업의 일환으로써 하나의 대안으로 대두되고 있는데 액비처리에 의한 환경영향, 특히 수분 및 영양성분 수지의 불균형을 초래하여 수질 오염 및 토양에 과잉 영양분을 축적할 우려가 있어 이에 수질에 미치는 영향에 대한 모니터링과 분석 시행함으로써 적용의 문제점 및 대책 방안 도출이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산림 유역에서 SCB액비 처리에 따른 지하수에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 지하수의 수질 모니터링을 실시하였다. 질산태 질소 중심으로 SCB액비 처리에 의한 지하수의 수질 영향을 분석하고, 질소 동위원소비를 이용하여 지하수의 질산태 질소 오염원을 판별하였다. 그 결과 바이오순환림이 액비처리에 의해 지하수 하류부에서 질산태 질소가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었는데, 이는 질소 동위원소비 분석 결과, 액비로부터 침출된 것으로 분석되었다. 반면에 유휴지의 경우, 액비 시용으로 인한 지하수 수질 영향은 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 추후 SCB액비 시용에 따른 산림유역에 대해서 지속적인 모니터링과 샘플링을 실시하여 다양한 항목에 대한 조사 및 분석을 이루어진다면 조림지와 같은 산림지역에서의 SCB액비 시용에 따른 수질 영향 모델링 및 모형 구축의 기초 자료로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Land application of animal manure, such as pig slurry(PS), has been considered as valuable organic source to supply necessary nutrients for crop growth. On the other hand, little information is available on the effect of consecutive application of PS on agricultural soils. This study was conducted to evaluate the influence on change in soil chemical properties and yield of Chinese cabbage in soils amended with slurry composting and bio-filtration pig slurry (SCB) for four consecutive crop cultivations (2007-2008). Among total application rates required, a basal fertilizer (35%) was applied with SCB or chemical fertilizer (CF). The CF was applied as a side dressing was applied in all treatments. There was no significant effect of SCB and CF on Chinese cabbage yield during four cropping seasons. In addition, soluble sugar, vitamin C contents and yields of Chinese cabbage between SCB and CF did not show statistically significant difference. During the experiment, soil chemical properties between SCB and CF treatment showed similar pattern, however, the contents of exchangeable sodium (Na) in soil has been increased (P<0.05) since the second cropping season because of higher Na contents in SCB. Therefore, the use of SCB as a substitute of CF is available for growth and yield of chinese cabbage while its long-term application might leads to an accumulation of Na in soil.

  • Pig slurry has been considered as environmental waste to be treated in an appropriate manner. Recently, there has been the movement toward reusing the pig slurry as an alternative fertilizer sources for agricultural lands. For instance, SCB(Slurry Composting & Biofiltration) liquid fertilizer has been developed and widely used in Korea. However, the impacts of swine slurry liquid fertilizers on both agricultural environment and crop yield have not been investigated yet. Therefore, the current study was conducted to accumulate the basic data which can be subsequently used to determine appropriate application amount of swine slurry liquid fertilizers (SCB liquid fertilizer and storage liquid fertilizer) as well as the application method for each liquid fertilizer. For this, growth of rice was cultivated under the treatment of SCB liquid fertilizer, storage liquid fertilizer, and chemical fertilizer. Also, control treatment (no fertilizer) was included for comparison and all treatments were conducted in five replication. Rice growth was good with the treatment in the order of chemical fertilizer>storage liquid fertilizer>SCB liquid fertilizer>control and likewise, the yield amount of rice straw was in the same order of rice growth. The rice yield amount appeared to be no difference among the treatment except control which showed the least yield amount. Also there was no difference in nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in rice among the treatment except control which showed the least concentration.

  • Cyclic loading tests for shear dominant hybrid steel link beams with circular web openings were performed to evaluate the seismic performance. Four half-scaled specimens with bolted connections were tested. The test parameter is a diameter of the web opening, i.e., shear strength ratio ($V_{pw}/V_p$) of the link beam and presence of top-seat angles. Using test results, adequate design shear strength of link beam was finally suggested. Test results showed that when the shear capacity is less than half of the plastic shear strength, seismic performance was improved due to mitigation of pinching under reversed cyclic inelastic deformations.

  • The use of subsurface drip fertigation using slurry composting bio-filtration (SCB) as nitrogen (N) fertilizer source can be beneficial to improve fertilizer management decision. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of SCB liquid fertilizer by subsurface drip fertigation on cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) yield and soil nitrogen (N) distribution under greenhouse condition. Cucumber in greenhouse was transplanted on April $4^{th}$ and Aug $31^{st}$ in 2012. N sources were SCB and urea. Four N treatments with 3 replications consisted of control (No N fertilizer), SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N (50:50 split application), SCB 1.0N, Urea 1.0N. 100% of N recommendation rate from soil testing was denoted as 1.0N. The subsurface drip line and a tensiometer were installed at 30 cm soil depth. An irrigation was automatically started when the tensiometer reading was -15 kPa. The growth of cucumber at 85 days after transplanting was 5% higher in all N treatment than control. Semi-forcing culture produced more fruit yield than retarding culture. Fruit yields were 62.2, 76.3, 76.4, and 75.1 Mg $ha^{-1}$ for control, SCB 1.0N, Urea 1.0N, and SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N, respectively. Although fruit yields were similar under SCB 1.0N, Urea 1.0N, and SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N, 176 kg K $ha^{-1}$ can be over applied if cucumber is grown twice a year under SCB 1.0N that may result in K accumulation in soil. N uptake was 172, 209, 213, 207 kg $ha^{-1}$ for control, SCB 1.0N, Urea 1.0N, and SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N, respectively. N use efficiency was the highest (37%) at SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N under semi-forcing culture. Nitrate-N concentration in soil for all N treatments except control in semi-forcing culture was the highest between 15 and 30 cm soil depth at the 85 days after transplanting and between 0 and 15 cm soil depth after cucumber harvest. These results suggested that SCB 0.5N + Urea 0.5N can be used as an alternative N management for cucumber production in greenhouse if K accumulation is concerned.

  • We proposed a current Interruption type DC superconducting circuit breaker(I-DC SCB), a protection device that combines the current limiting technology of a superconductor with the cut-off technology of circuit breaker. Unlike existing protective devices, the current I-DC SCB is a device that combines two protection functions, notably improving failure probability and operational reliability. It is also applicable to all DC systems, such as HV, MV, and LVDC, due to the ease in capacity increase. The 100 kV I-DC SCB was designed after taking into account the actual power system conditions, followed by an analysis of the transient characteristics and the breaking range of the limiter. The results of the analysis showed that the I-DC SCB had a fault current limit of about 75% at the rated voltage, and completed the cut-off operation within about 20 ms.

  • We investigated the effect of Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill (SCB) on allergy in mice. We conformed compound 48/80-induced mesenteric mast cell degranulation, active systemic anaphylatic shock and histamine release. Also observed acetic acid-induced vascular permeability and anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis. SCB inhibited mesenteric mast cell degranulation and active systemic anaphylatic shock induced by compound 48/80 dose-dependently. When SCB was pretreated by intra-peritoneal injection, the plasma histamine levels were reduced. SCB also significantly inhibited acetic acid-induced vascular permeability and anti-DNP IgE-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis. In addition, SCB reduced IL-10 mRNA expression of the lung on ovalbumin-induced allergy. These results indicate that SCB inhibits allergy.

  • The available power generated from the FC power plant may not be sufficient to meet sustained load demand, peak demand or transient events. An supercapacitor bank(SCB) can supply a large burst of power, but it cannot store a significant amount of energy. The combined use of FC and SCB has the potential for the better energy efficiency, reducing the cost of FC technology and improved dynamic response. In this paper, A single PEMFC and PEMFC operated in parallel with a SC bank are presented, A new dynamic model of PEMFC system, the converter and controller has been developed for stand-alone applications. The simulation results are presented using Matlab/Simulink, and SimPowerSystems environments. It is confirmed that the results show a good performance and stable DC-link voltage for proposed dynamic and mathematical models developed for the combined FC/SCB.

  • This paper proposed a new self-centering brace (SCB), which consists of four post-tensioned (PT) high strength steel strands and energy absorbing steel plate (EASP) clusters. First, analytical equations were derived to describe the working principle of the SCB. Then, to investigate the hysteretic performance of the SCB, four full-size specimens were manufactured and subjected to the same cyclic loading protocol. One additional specimen using only EASP clusters was also tested to highlight the contribution of PT strands. The test parameters varied in the testing process included the thickness of the EASP and the number of EASP in each cluster. Testing results shown that the SCB exhibited nearly flag-shape hysteresis up to expectation, including excellent recentering capability and satisfactory energy dissipating capacity. For all the specimens, the ratio of the recovered deformation is in the range of 89.6% to 92.1%, and the ratio of the height of the hysteresis loop to the yielding force is in the range of 0.47 to 0.77. Finally, in order to further understand the mechanism of the SCB and provide additional information to the testing results, the high-fidelity finite element (FE) models were established and the numerical results were compared against the experimental data. Good agreement between the experimental, numerical, and analytical results was observed, and the maximum difference is less than 12%. Parametric analysis was also carried out based on the validated FE model to evaluate the effect of some key parameters on the cyclic behavior of the SCB.
