  • Generally, when constructing a tunnel close to existing structures, the tunnel must be built at a constant distance from the structures that is more than width of tunnel to minimize the impact of interference between an existing structures and new tunnel. Spacing of these closed tunnels should be designed considering soil state, size of tunnel and reinforcement method. Particularly when the ground is soft, a care should be taken with the tunnel plans because the closer the tunnel is to the existing structures, the greater the deformation becomes. As methods of reviewing the effect of cavities on the stability of a tunnel, field measurement, numerical analysis and scaled model test can be considered. In the methods, the scaled model test can reproduce the engineering characteristics of a rock in a field condition and the shape of structures using the scale factor even not all conditions cannot be considered. In this study, when construction of a tunnel close to existing structures, the method and considering factors of the scaled model test were studied to predict the actual tunnel behavior in planning stage. Furthermore, model test results were compared with the numerical analysis results for verifying the proposed model test procedure. Also, practical results were derived to verify the stability of a tunnel vis-a-vis cavities through the scaled model test, which assumed spacing distances of 0.25 D, 0.50 D, and 1.00 D between the cavities and tunnel as well as the network state distribution. The spacing distances of 1.0 D is evaluated as the critical distance by the results of model test and numerical analysis.

  • The past bridge design specifications of Korea didn't include 1imitation on the amount of lap splices in the plastic hinge zone of piers, and so do current specifications. But these specifications include just limitation on the minimal length of lap splices. Thus, a large majority of non-seismically designed bridge piers may have lap splices in plastic hinge zone. In this study, model pier was selected among existent bridge piers whose failure mode is complex shear-flexure mode. Full scaled RC pier models whose aspect ratio is about 2.67 were constructed and quasi static test according to the drift level history was implemented. From the test results, effect of the lap splices on the seismic performance of bridges piers was analyzed, and the seismic capacity of the model bridges was evaluated by capacity spectrum method.

  • NREL Phase VI 12% 축소모델을 사용한 표준풍력터빈 풍동시험은 2006$\sim$2007년에 수행되었다. 1,2차 풍동시험은 복합재 및 알루미늄 블레이드를 사용하여 블레이드 제작정밀도 및 표면상태에 의한 영향을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 3차 풍동시험은 축소효과보상기법 개발을 위해 수행되었다. Bo-105 40% 모델에 사용된 코드확장기법을 적용하여 15% 코드확장 블레이드를 사용하여 풍동시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과 코드확장기법을 적용할 경우 풍속에 대한 토크 기울기는 실물모델과 잘 일치하나, 최대토크 대비 8%정도 간극을 나타내고 있다. 풍력터빈 블레이드와 같이 캠버가 큰 익형을 사용하는 회전체에 대한 수정된 보상기법을 적용할 경우 이러한 간극은 보상될 수 있다.

  • Low frequency oscillation of inter-area system is important problem in power system areas because the operation conditions of power system depend on it. Generally, the analysis of the problem is used by small signal stability. Especially, the analysis results are affected by decision of load models. In this paper, the effect of the analysis results was studied according to load component characteristics. ZIP model, popular in large-scaled power system analysis, was used as the load model. Many cases were studied according to the combination of ZIP model in inter-area system.

  • In this work, graphene was prepared by modified Hummers method and prepared graphene was applied to electrode materials for supercapacitor. In addition, to enhance the electrochemical performance of graphene, carbon black was deposited onto graphene via chemical reduction. The effect of the carbon black content incorporated on the electrochemical properties of the graphene-based electrodes was investigated. It was found that nano-scaled carbon black aggregates were deposited and dispersed onto the graphene by the chemical reduction of acid treated carbon black and graphite oxide. From the cyclic voltammograms, carbon black-deposited graphene (CB-GR) showed improved electrochemical performance, i.e., current density, quicker response, and better specific capacitance than that of pristine graphene. This indicates that the carbon black deposited onto graphene served as an conductive materials between graphene layers, leading to reducing the contact resistance of graphene and resulted in the increase of the charge transfer between graphene layers by bridge effect.

  • In case of the limitation of Deep RIE fabrication far Micro Gas Turbine, bearing aspect ratio is limited in very small value. The characteristics such as pressure distribution, load capacity and non-linearity of a short bearing of L/D=0.083 and a conventional bearing of L/D=1.0 with coupled boundary effects are investigated for Micro Gas Turbine bearings. The coupled effect was analyzed by mass conservation at coupled end area. The results, increasing load capacity and non-linearity due to the coupled effect of thrust and journal bearing, are obtained and the selection of journal bearing type is discussed.

  • This research is to investigate the effect of base roughness of footing on characteristics of load-settlement curve. Parametric experiments of small scaled model test were performed with changing the properties of base roughness of model footing; Gluing the vinyl, aluminum, sand paper, sand beneath the model footing surface. The width of model footing and relative density of soil foundation were also changed to investigate their effects on settlement characteristics of footing. The ultimate bearing capacity as well as the initial slope of load-settlement curve obtained from test results were compared with those from limit equilibrium methods proposed by Terzaghi, Hansen and Meyerhof. From test results, it was confirmed that the base roughness affected the failure mechanisms of showing different shapes of slip lines formed beneath the footing.
