Heavyweight(or High density) concrete, which is generally for shiedling structures, differs from normal weight concrete by having a higher density and special compositions to improve its attenuation properties. There are setting 7 Beam Ports around the reactor of the KMRR Project(Korea Multi-purpose Research Reactor) conducted by the KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute). High density(p=5.0t/$\textrm{m}^3$) and Heavyweight(p=3.5t/$\textrm{m}^3$) concrete were placed around the Beam Ports in order to shield radiation. This paper was discussed about construction of High density concrete. High density concrete was placed with method of Preplace Aggregate. Coarse metallic aggregate(steel shot) was used. Boron, boron carbide(B4C), was used to capture effctively the neutrom. The mock-up test was carried out. And the consturction of High density concrete was performed successfully.

In this paper a determination of the optimal excavation method and machine type for a tunnel under the Han river between the Sungsoo-dong, Sungdong-Gu and the Chungdaw-dong, Kangnam-Gu in the Bundang railway. The geological investigation results show that some fractured zones exist locally under the northern boundary of the Han river bed, but the other regions consist mostly of hard rocks of good quality in the tunnel excavation level. Also, a hign water pressure of $5kgf/cm^2$ and a flash inflow of river water due to old boring holes are expected during tunnel excavation. A EPB shield TBM is selected as a optimal excavation machine for the Han river tunnel considering the geological and ,site conditions.

This paper illustrates the use of electric field computation to optimize the design of high voltage composite bushing. In the bushing, a high electric stress occurred between field shaper and central conductor by the closely space. Also coaxial cylindrical shield has a great height along the axis to control an electric field. Consequently, all the potentials are raised axially along the field shaper and electric stress is concentrated on a part of the surface of the FRP tube near the upper end of the field shaper. Maxwell 2D simulator based on the boundary element method was also introduced in order to verify the reliability of the polymer bushing. The optimized design uses internal elements for electric stress grading at critical parts of the bushing.

In excavating tunnels, shield tunneling machines having many cutters on their cutter planes are used. Not many observation data being available in the detection system, optimal observation policy is very important. From this viewpoint, we previously considered the optimal location of acoustic sensors on the cutter plane and also the optimal observation policy for the case where three receiving transducers were used, and showed that the optimal sensor location was given as arbitrary equally-spaced points on the cutter plane circle, and that the optimal rotating angles were also found to be arbitrary. In application, however, it is often difficult to locate sensors at arbitrary positions or to use three sensors from the viewpoints of machine structure and cost. This paper considers the optimal observation policy for detecting anomlous plane objects for the case where two receiving transducers are used and the case where three receiving transducers are located only on a diameter of the cutter plane.

To reduce the fast neutron fluence which deteriorates the RPV integrity, additional shields were assumed to be installed at the outer core structures of the Kori Unit 1 reactor, and its reduction effects were examined. Full scope Monte Carlo simulation with MCNP4A code was made to estimate the fast neutron fluence at the RPV. An optimized design option was found from various choices in geometry and material for shield structure. It was expected that magnitude of fast neutron fluence would be reduced by 39% at the circumferential weld of the RPV, resulting in extension of plant lifetime by 4.6 EFPYs based on the criterion of PTS requirement It was investigated that the nuclear characteristics and thermal hydraulic factors at the internal core were only negligibly influenced by the installation of additional shield structure.

In general, we apply the 2 dimensional method to analyze the characteristic of electric machinery. But it is very difficult to analyze the air-cored machine like as superconducting generator, because it have 3 dimensional flux distribution. In this paper, we compare the analysis r between 2D and 3D. 3D Finite Element Meth applied to the superconducting generator at n condition. And we studied the characteristic acc to the axial length of magnetic shield.

A large cryo-pumping system composed of 4 cryosorption pumps was designed and manufactured to satisfy the pressure requirements of the NBI test stand. The cryosorption pump consists of a thermal shield/baffle assembly and a cryopanel coated with activated carbon granules. The thermal shield is cooled by liquid nitrogen, and the cryopanel by a commercial helium refrigerator. The operation characteristics and vacuum performance of the cryosorption pump were investigated. The cooling down time of the cryopanel to 20 K was about 6 hours with a liquid nitrogen consumption rate of about 35 L/hr. The maximum pumping speed of the cryosorption pump for the hydrogen gas measured by the steady pressure method was about 90,000 L/s.

The shield TBM method is widely adopted for tunneling works in urban area because it has more beneficial ways to control settlement at ground surface than conventional mined tunneling. In the shield tunneling, backfill grouting at tail void is crucial because it is supposed not only to restraint ground deformation around tail void during excavation but also to compensate precedent ground settlement by pushing up the ground with highly pressurized grout. However, the tail void grouting has been found to be ineffective for settlement compensation particularly in sandy ground, which might be caused by complicate interaction between ground and tail void grouting. In this paper, the effects of tail void grouting on behavior of ground in shield TBM tunneling were investigated based on 3-dimensional finite element analyses. The results of numerical analyses indicated that backfill grouting actually reduces settlement by degrading settlement increasing rate in excavation, which means decrease of volume loss. Meanwhile, the grouting could not contribute to compensate the precedent settlement, because reduction of volume loss by grouting was found to be counterbalanced by volume change of ground.

This paper is a study on the development of equipment system to obtain data on stability in excavation of sharp curve section of Shield TBM. Shield TBM equipment is being used a lot recently for tunnel excavation. Excavation may result in inevitable detours by buildings above the ground or existing underground structures. Preconstruction simulation is required to verify the stability of the construction in case of this. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an automated control system through the development of this equipment system and conduct simulation through simulation of excavation model in the sharp curve section. A system shall be developed to control the left and right angles and thrust of the equipment, and to view data on the earth pressure and propulsion pressure of the equipment in real time during excavation. With this system, the necessary data can be collected for field testing through excavation method and excavation simulation by angle. It is expected that it will be very useful in assessing the actual Shield TBM by conducting a scale-down model experiment.
