To estimate nondestructively strength performances of laminated woods, 3-ply parallel- and cross-laminated wood specimens exposed under atmosphere conditions after bending creep test were prepared for this study. The effects of density of species, arrangement of laminae and lamination types on dynamic MOE obtained by flexural vibration were investigated, and regression analyses were conducted in order to estimate static bending strength and bending creep performances. Dynamic MOE of parallel-laminated woods showed 1.0~1.2 times higher values than static bending MOE, and those of cross-laminated woods showed 1.0~1.4 times higher values than static bending MOE. The degree of anisotropy of dynamic MOE perpendicular to the grain of face laminae versus that parallel to the grain of face laminae was markedly decreased by cross-laminating. There were strong correlations between dynamic MOE by flexural vibration and static bending MOE (correlation coefficient r = 0.919~0.972) or bending MOR (correlation coefficient r = 0.811~0.947) of 3-ply laminated woods, and the correlation coefficient were higher in parallel-laminated woods than in cross-laminated woods. It indicated that static bending strength performances were able to be estimated from dynamic MOE by flexural vibration. Also, close correlations between the reciprocal of dynamic MOE by flexural vibration and initial compliance at 0.008 h of 3-ply laminated woods were found (correlation coefficient r = 0.873~0.991). However, the correlation coefficient between the reciprocal of dynamic MOE and creep compliance at 168 h of 3-ply laminated woods was considerably lower than those between dynamic MOE and initial compliance, and it was hard to estimate creep compliance with a high accuracy from dynamic MOE due to the variation of creep deformation.

노상토의 변형특성은 포장설계에 있어서 매우 중요한 기본적인 입력물성치다. 노상토의 탄성계수를 실험적으로 결정하기 위해서는 많은 노력이 필요하다. 포장 단면이 간단하거나 중요도가 낮은 도로 설계의 경우 시험적인 탄성계수 결정이 과다한 비용을 요구하게 된다. 보다 간편한 대체시험 또는 기초물성치로부터 탄성계수를 결정하는 다양한 경험모형이 제안되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 7종의 국내 노상토에 대한 시험을 수행하였다. 국내 노상토의 경우 강도특성과 변형특성의 밀접한 상관성을 확인 하였으며, 경험적 상관모형을 제안하였다. 점착력과 낮은 구속응력단계에서의 탄성계수는 매우 큰 상관관계가 있었다($r^2=0.93$). 제안된 상관모형을 적용하여 강도특성으로부터 추정된 탄성계수와 시험을 통하여 측정된 탄성계수의 비교에서 결정계수($r^2$)는 0.75로 나타났다.

Rice Husk Ash (RHA) geopolymer paste activated by sodium aluminate were characterized by X-ray diffractogram (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersion X-Ray analysis (EDAX)and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Five series of RHA geopolymer specimens were prepared by varying the Si/Al ratio as 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5. The paper focuses on the correlation of microstructure with hardened state parameters like bulk density, apparent porosity, sorptivity, water absorption and compressive strength. XRD analysis peaks indicates quartz, cristobalite and gibbsite for raw RHA and new peaks corresponding to Zeolite A in geopolymer specimens. In general, SEM micrographs show interconnected pores and loosely packed geopolymer matrix except for specimens made with Si/Al of 2.0 which exhibited comparatively better matrix. Incorporation of Al from sodium aluminate were confirmed with the stretching and bending vibration of Si-O-Si and O-Si-O observations from the FTIR analysis of geopolymer specimen. The dense microstructure of SA2.0 correlate into better performance in terms of 28 days maximum compressive strength of 16.96 MPa and minimum for porosity, absorption and sorptivity among the specimens. However, due to the higher water demand to make the paste workable, the value of porosity, absorption and sorptivity were reportedly higher as compared with other geopolymer systems. Correlation regression equations were proposed to validate the interrelation between physical parameters and mechanical strength. RHA geopolymer shows comparatively lower compressive strength as compared to Fly ash geopolymer.

일반적으로 점토의 비 배수전단강도 산정은 실내실험을 통해 구하지만 초연약점토의 경우 재료의 특성 상 실내실험이 어렵고, 현장실험 또한 여러 제약조건들을 감수해야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실내에서 수행한 물성실험 및 슬럼프실험과 실내 베인 전단실험의 결과를 회귀분석을 통해 슬럼프 값과 비 배수전단강도 사이의 상관 관계식을 도출하였다. 도출된 상관 관계식의 신뢰성 확보를 위하여 t-분포를 이용한 통계분석을 실시하였고 현장의 데이터와 비교 분석하여 관계식의 적용성 및 신뢰성을 확보하였다.

Background: This study was to investigate the relationship between scapular downward rotation ratio (SDRR), lower trapezius (LT) muscle, and rounded shoulder angle (RSA) on each side in subjects with scapular downward rotation syndrome (SDRS). Design: Cross-sectional Study Methods: Fifteen subjects have participated in this study. The RSA and SDRR were assessed using a tape measure in standing posture. The RSA was computed by the angle made by two lines: one was the distance between the root of the scapula and the acromion, and the other was the distance between the acromion and the horizontal line in the root of the scapula. The SDRR was computed by two horizontal lines: one was the distance between the mid-line and root of the scapula, and the other was the distance between the mid-line and inferior angle of the scapula. LT muscle strength was performed in a prone position by the hand-held dynamometer. Results: There was a positive correlation between SDRR and LT strength in the less affected sides (r=.59; p=.02), however, there was no correlation between RSA and LT strength in the more affected sides (p>.05).

Recently, interest in reducing cement has been growing. Hwangto, an eco-friendly material, has advantages such as air purification effect and humidity control, but when used, accidents such as form collapse may occur due to low strength and reduced durability. In order to quantitatively evaluate the timing of mold demolding, we would like to evaluate the timing of mold demolding through correlation with compressive strength using ultrasonic pulse velocity. As a result, the time at which 5 MPa is developed is after 20 hours for the test specimen of W/B 41 , in the case of W/B 33, NC33 and HTC33-15 were equally expressed at 12 hours, and HTC33-30 was expressed at 16 hours.

숏크리트 공법은 공기압으로 콘크리트를 대상 면에 뿜어 붙이는 방법으로, 주로 터널 및 지하구조물의 1차 지보재, 경사면 보호에 사용되며, 최근에는 구조물 유지보수 등에도 적용되고 있다. 특히, 건식방법(Dry-Mix Process)은 습식방법(Wet-Mix Process)에 비해 소형장비가 요구되고 청소 및 유지관리가 용이하고 속경성 재료의 사용이 가능함으로 건식방법이 구조물 보수에 경제적이며 적합하다. 건식 숏크리트의 품질관리는 주로 코아시편을 이용한 압축강도로 규정되어있으나, 이 방법은 코아 시편을 얻는데 많은 어려움을 내포하고 있으며, 특히 속경성 보수재료의 조기강도 평가는 그 어려움을 더 크다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 속경성 시멘트를 이용하여 초속경 건식 숏크리트의 조기강도를 평가하기 위해 정방형 시험편 압축강도시험, 코아 압축강도시험, 인발시험, 성숙도시험을 실시하여 이들의 상관성을 분석하였다. 코아 압축강도, 정방형 시편 압축강도, 인발시험으로부터 추정된 압축강도 실험결과를 상관성 분석한 결과 모두 90%이상의 높은 상관성이 나타났다.

The abrasivity of rocks results in tool wear in rock excavation or drilling projects. It can affect significantly the cost and schedule of the projects performed in abrasive rock massess. For this reason, the understanding of the mechanism of rock abrasivity is very important for excavation projects. This study investigates the effect of strength on the LCPC abrasivity coefficient (LAC) for igneous rocks. The LCPT test, the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and the Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) tests were carried out on the igneous rock samples. The abrasive mineral content (AMC) was also determined for each rock type. First, the LAC was correlated to the AMC and a very good correlation was found between the two parameters. Then, the multiple regression analysis was carried out by including the AMC, UCS and BTS to the analysis in order to infer the effect of the strength on the LAC. It was seen that the correlation coefficients of multiple regression models were greater than that of the relation between the LAC and the AMC. It is concluded that the AMC is the dominant parameter determining the abrasivity of rock. On the other hand, the rock strength has also significant effect on rock abrasivity.

Due to the undeniable importance of approximating the concrete compressive strength (CSC) in civil engineering, this paper focuses on presenting four novel optimizations of multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network, namely artificial bee colony (ABC-MLP), grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA-MLP), shuffled frog leaping algorithm (SFLA-MLP), and salp swarm algorithm (SSA-MLP) for predicting this crucial parameter. The used dataset consists of 103 rows of information concerning seven influential parameters (cement, slag, water, fly ash, superplasticizer, fine aggregate, and coarse aggregate). In this work, the best-fitted complexity of each ensemble is determined by a population-based sensitivity analysis. The GOA distinguished its self by the least complexity (population size = 50) and emerged as the second time-effective optimizer. Referring to the prediction results, all tested algorithms are able to construct reliable networks. However, the SSA (Correlation = 0.9652 and Error = 1.3939) and GOA (Correlation = 0.9629 and Error = 1.3922) performed more accurately than ABC (Correlation = 0.7060 and Error = 4.0161) and SFLA (Correlation = 0.8890 and Error = 2.5480). Therefore, the SSA-MLP and GOA-MLP can be promising alternatives to laboratorial and traditional CSC evaluative methods.
