  • 금강하구언에서 낙조동안 인위적으로 방류된 담수의 하구 내 거동을 파악하고자 1997년 5월과 1998년 7월에 각각 수로방향으로 설정된 3개 지점에서 표층 염분변화를 관측하였으며, 1999년 7월에는 군산-장항간 도선항로를 따라 18일간 표층염분과 수온을 관측하였다. 관측된 염분변화의 특징으로부터 방류된 담수가 하구 내에서 거동${\cdot}$소멸하는 과정을 분석하였다. 담수가 방류되면 저염수는 하구 폭 전반에 걸친 강한 염분전선을 형성하며 담수거동은 기본적으로 조석운동에 동조되어 수로를 따라 왕래하고, 이 전선의 통과로 염분은 급격한 변화를 보인다. 수문개폐로부터 한 조석주기 이후의 하구 폭 평균염분의 시간적 변화로부터 해석된 수로방향의 공간적 분포는 전선역에 담수희석수가 응축되며 표층염분이 상류쪽으로 갈수록 점진적으로 증가하는 것으로 제시되었다. 이러한 염분의 전선역 분포는 두 시간정도의 하구언 수문 개방에 의한 급작스런 담수공급과 중단에 의해 발생한 것으로 해석되었다. 매일 담수방류의 반복은 수문 개방시기에 의해 이전의전선과 새로운 전선의 분리(이중전선) 혹은 병합을 만들고, 담수공급이 2일 이상 중단되면 염분이 증가되며 전선이 소멸한다. 또한, 표층염분 변화에 나타나는 변동과 변이는 하구언에서 인위적으로 행해지는 담수 방류량 차이에 의해 발생하는 염분전선의 세기와 통과시기의 공간적 차이, 그리고 일시적인 하구수로 방향을 따른 염분전선 등에 의한 것으로 해석되었다.

  • Printed thin-film transistors (TFTs) have received profound interests as an alternative to their silicon counterparts for use in fabricating next-Gen microelectronics by virtue of projected low manufacturing cost and certain salient features (e.g., thin and lightweight characteristics, structural flexibility, etc.) that printed TFTs bring to device architecture. The economic advantages stem from engaging low-cost printing techniques (e.g., screen printing, gravure, flexography, etc.) for deposition and patterning in place of traditionally costly high-vacuum, high-temperature photolithographic processes. To render printing TFTs possible, solution processable materials are necessary.

  • In the present study, exterior beam-column sub-assemblage from a regular reinforced concrete (RC) building has been considered. Two different types of beam-column sub-assemblages from existing RC building have been considered, i.e., gravity load designed ('GLD'), and seismically designed but without any ductile detailing ('NonDuctile'). Hence, both the cases represent the under-designed structure at different time frame span before the introduction of ductile detailing. For designing 'NonDuctile' structure, Eurocode and Indian Standard were considered. Non-linear finite element (FE) program has been employed for analysing the sub-assemblages under cyclic loading. FE models were developed using quadratic concrete brick elements with embedded truss elements to represent reinforcements. It has been found that the results obtained from the numerical analysis are well corroborated with that of experimental results. Using the validated numerical models, it was proposed to correlate the energy dissipation from numerical analysis to that from experimental analysis. Numerical models would be helpful in practice to evaluate the seismic performance of the critical sub-assemblages prior to design decisions. Further, using the numerical studies, performance of the sub-assemblages with variation of axial load ratios (ratio is defined by applied axial load divided by axial strength) has been studied since many researchers have brought out inconsistent observations on role of axial load in changing strength and energy dissipation under cyclic load.

  • The Spin Tester(High Speed Balancing and Overspeed Test Facility), which is designed for the quality control of turbine, generator, and rotors was supposed to be constructed with the use of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete(SERC) for reducing the risk of accident while operation. However, it was very existence of fiber concrete due to there are two major concern in the SFRC work: one is existence of fiber ball due to inhomogeneous mixing, the other is the segregation of the concrete materials. To avoid these possible problems, the S/a was controlled about 55% to reduce the segregation and the high range AE water reducing agent was used to maintain the slump over the value of 18cm. With these careful consideratons, the SFRC work was done successfully by only using regular equipments like pump car and vibrator.

  • 갯벌의 온도구조와 열적 특성변화를 조사하기 위해 서해안 공소만 갯벌조간대에서 고도가 다른 3개 지점을 설정하여 40 cm깊이까지 계절별로 1개월간의 온도관측을 수행하였다. 표층에서 평균온도는 하계에 아래층보다 높고 동계에는 낮아져 표층가열과 냉각에 의한 온도구조와 변화 형태를 보여주었으며 표준편차는 아래층으로 갈수록 감소하였다. 주기성이 뚜렷한 일사량과 조위 변화가 주로 단기적 온도변화를 야기하였고, 간헐적으로는 강우와 강한 풍속도 영향을 주었다. 시계열분석에 의하면 24시간, 12시간 그리고 8시간 주기 성분에 강한 에너지 첨두(peak)를 보였으며, 24시간 주기성분이 가장 큰 에너지를 보였다. 24시간 주기 성분은 일사량변화, 12시간 주기는 반일주조 조위변화 그리고 8시간 주기성분은 일사량과 조위변화의 상호작용에 의한 온도파동으로 해석되었다. EOF분석에서 제 1모드와 제 2모드가 수직온도구조 변화의 96%를 차지하였다 제 1모드는 갯벌 표층에서의 가열과 냉각에 의한 현상으로, 제 2모드는 갯벌내부의 열 전파과정에서 발생하는 지연효과로 해석되었다. 교차스펙트럼 분석에서 24시간 주기성분 온도파동에 의한 열전달위상은 깊이에 따라 선형적으로 증가하는 평균위상 차이를 보였고, 표층에서 10 cm, 20 cm, 40 cm 깊이까지의 위상 차이에 의한 지연시간은 각각 3.2시간, 6.5시간 9.8시간이었다. 일차원적 열확산모델에서 산출된 24시간 주기성분 온도파동의 수직 확산계수는 깊이와 계절에 걸쳐 평균하였을 때 중부조간대 정점에서는 $0.70{\times}10^{-6}m^2/s$, 하부조간대 정점에서는 $0.57{\times}10^{-6}m^2/s$의 값을 보였다. 깊이 평균된 확산계수는 봄철에 크고 여름철에 작았고, 계절 평균된 확산계수는 2cm부터 10cm깊이까지 증가하고 10cin부터 40cm깊이까지는 감소하는 수직구조를 보였다. 평균 열확산계수를 사용하여 구한 온도전파 확산속도는 2 cm 깊이로부터 10 cm, 20cm, 40cm까지 각각 $8.75{\times}10^{-4}cm/s,\;3.8{\times}10{-4}cm/s,\;1.7{\times}10^{-4}cm/s$정도의 값이 되어 표층에서 깊어질수록 작아졌다.

  • In this study, structural vulnerability of reinforced concrete moment resisting frames (RC-MRFs) by considering the Iran-specific characteristics is investigated to manage the earthquake risk in terms of multicomponent seismic excitations. Low and medium rise RC-MRFs, which constitute approximately 80-90% of the total buildings stock in Iran, are focused in this fragility-based assessment. The seismic design of 3-12 story RC-MRFs are carried out according to the Iranian Code of Practice for Seismic Resistant Design of Buildings (Standard No. 2800), and the analytical models are formed accordingly in open source nonlinear platforms. Frame structures are categorized in three subclasses according to the specific characteristics of construction practice and the observed seismic performance after major earthquakes in Iran. Both far and near fields' ground motions have been considered in the fragility estimation. An optimal intensity measure (IM) called Sa, avg and beta probability distribution were used to obtain reliable fragility-based database for earthquake damage and loss estimation of RC buildings stock in urban areas of Iran. Nonlinear incremental dynamic analyses by means of lumped-parameter based structural models have been simulated and performed to extract the fragility curves. Approximate confidence bounds are developed to represent the epistemic uncertainties inherent in the fragility estimations. Consequently, it's shown that including vertical ground motion in the analysis is highly recommended for reliable seismic assessment of RC buildings.

  • Recent earthquakes worldwide show that a significant portion of the earthquake shaking happens in the vertical direction. This phenomenon has raised significant interests to consider the vertical ground motion during the seismic design and assessment of the structures. Strong vertical ground motions can alter the axial forces in the columns, which might affect the shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) members. This is particularly important for non-ductile RC frames, which are very vulnerable to earthquake-induced collapse. This paper presents the detailed nonlinear dynamic analysis to quantify the collapse risk of non-ductile RC frame structures with varying heights. An array of non-ductile RC frame architype buildings located in Los Angeles, California were designed according to the 1967 uniform building code. The seismic responses of the architype buildings subjected to concurrent horizontal and vertical ground motions were analyzed. A comprehensive array of ground motions was selected from the PEER NGA-WEST2 and Iran Strong Motions Network database. Detailed nonlinear dynamic analyses were performed to quantify the collapse fragility curves and collapse margin ratios (CMRs) of the architype buildings. The results show that the vertical ground motions have significant impact on both the local and global responses of non-ductile RC moment frames. Hence, it is crucial to include the combined vertical and horizontal shaking during the seismic design and assessment of non-ductile RC moment frames.

  • This paper presents a method for obtaining mosaic aerial photographs that are useful for a long-term shoreline change study in the Nakdong estuary. Although this method involves digital photogrammetry software of the shelf its usage can be simplified to accomodate the shoreline change study. Ground control points, which are common in aerial photographs, were measured from digital maps. Block triangulation was highly affected by land-based GCPs. Extension of tie points near the shoreline to vertical control points gave more reliable results for the block triangulation. A constant Digital Elevation Model (DEM), close to mean sea level, was employed to produce ortho-rectified photographs, from which mosaic photographs were made. Accuracy of photographs were found to be acceptable for the analysis of long-term shoreline change, and the promising construction of a shoreline change database in the Nakdong estuary.

  • This article is all about using the MR damper with an external lever system for mitigation torsional and transitional lateral displacements by using of PID control algorithm. The torsional modes are so destructive and can be varied during an earthquake therefore, using a semi-active control system mostly recommended for them. In this paper the corner lateral displacement of each floor obtains and then it equivalents in a solid member and it connects to an MR damper, which relies to a rigid structure to reduce the response. An MR damper is a semi-active control system, which can absorb a lot of energy by injecting current to it. This amount of current is very low and needs low power supply, but it increases the amount of damper force, rather than inactive systems like viscous dampers. This paper will show the appropriate algorithm for current injection into MR damper when the eccentricity of the load is changed by using of Bouc-Wen and Bingham's methods and illustrates the coincidence of them.
