Objectives: This study evaluated microtensile bond strength (${\mu}TBS$) and short-rod fracture toughness to explain fractural behavior of repaired composite restorations according to different surface treatments. Materials and Methods: Thirty composite blocks for ${\mu}TBS$ test and sixty short-rod specimens for fracture toughness test were fabricated and were allocated to 3 groups according to the combination of surface treatment (none-treated, sand blasting, bur roughening). Each group was repaired immediately and 2 weeks later. Twenty-four hours later from repair, ${\mu}TBS$ and fracture toughness test were conducted. Mean values analyzed with two-way ANOVA / Tukey's B test ($\alpha$= 0.05) and correlation analysis was done between ${\mu}TBS$ and fracture toughness. FE-SEM was employed on fractured surface to examine the crack propagation. Results: The fresh composite resin showed higher ${\mu}TBS$ than the aged composite resin (p < 0.001). Mechanically treated groups showed higher bond strength than non-mechanically treated groups except none-treated fresh group in ${\mu}TBS$ (p < 0.05). The fracture toughness value of mechanically treated surface was higher than that of non-mechanically treated surface (p < 0.05). There was no correlation between fracture toughness and microtensile bond strength values. Specimens having high KIC showed toughening mechanism including crack deviation, microcracks and crack bridging in FE-SEM. Conclusions: Surface treatment by mechanical interlock is more important for effective composite repair, and the fracture toughness test could be used as an appropriate tool to examine the fractural behavior of the repaired composite with microtensile bond strength.

An evaluation method of spacer grid thermal mixing performance in rod bundles is suggested based on hydraulic tests in a single phase flow. Heat transfer correlation was derived by the analogy between momentum and heat transfer. Three of major factors, such as blockage ratio of spacer grid, convective flow swirling, and turbulent intensity, were found to be significantly influential to the spacer grid thermal mixing performance. Local heat transfer near spacer grid was predicted for the hydraulic test of 6 ${\times}$ 6 rod bundles with neighboring different spacer grids.

COBRA-TF is a two fluid, three field subchannel code. Three fields are continuous vapor, continuous liquid and droplet. Some assessments are conducted to validate the related models and to estimate a code ability through dryout and post-CHF experiment in a tube and DNB test in rod bundles. It turned out form dryout and post-CHF experiment that the predicted dryout locations and wall temperature profiles are in close agreement with the experiments. On the other hand, DNB prediction of COBRA-TF are performed for two kinds of rod bundles along with EPRI CHF correlation. To estimate its performance COBRA-IV of homogeneous model is also run for the same data. The results say that COBRA-TF/EPRI is better in DNB prediction than COBRA-IV/EPRI. In addition the thermal-hydraulic behaviors due to the different two-phase flow models are presented at the condition of CHF.

국내에서 가장 많이 사용되는 현장조사방법인 표준관입시험의 결과로 얻어지는 N값에 대해 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 롯드 에너지 전단률(깽 Energy Ratio)을 지반조건이 상이한 3개 현장에서 항타분석기(Pile Driving Analyzer)를 이용하여 실측하였다. 에너지 전달률에 영향을 미치는 요인들 중엣 해머의 종류, 로프의 상태, 자아틀에 감은 횟수 등의 조건을 달리하여 롯드 에너지 전달률에 미치는 영향을 측정/분석하였다. 실험결과에 의하면 도넛해머, 안전해머, 개량형 도넛해머(Modified Automatic Donut Hammer)는 롯드에너지 전달률이 각각42%, 66%, 57% 정도로 측정되었으며 로프의 상태와 자아틀에 감은 횟수는 상대적으로 영향이 적은 것으로 측정되었다. 실험결과를 바탕으로 실측된 N값을 해머의 이론적 위치에너지의 60%에 해당하는 에너지가 롯드에 전달되었을 때의 N값(N60)으로 변환하기 위한 식을 제안하였다.

The high pressure jet grouting method is mainly used in the grouting. But, this method has problems that the scale and strength of improved body is not constant with ground condition. Considering these problems, triple rod MJM that results in the high-strength effect by the technology of the injected ${\phi}7mm$ cement mortar was developed. In this MJM, the unconfined strength is estimated with the various combination ratio and engineering characteristic, strength improvement effect of improved body, was checked through the field test. It is known that the application of MJM was verified with ground and construction condition.

Crank pin temperatures were measured and analyzed to find out practical method which can predict the engine bearing reliability. The measuring points were determined to be near the MOFT region and far from that by theoretical calculation. The effect of engine running condition, oil temperature, the change of oil circuit into bearing and crankshaft endplay on crank pin temperature were experimentally tested. The result obtained was as following. The crank pin temperature was dependent on oil film thickness and directly influenced by the change of test condition. Also, the length of the crankshaft endplay was confirmed to be critical to connecting rod bearing failure. In conclusion, we found that the measurement method of crank pin temperature can be used for predicting the engine bearing reliability.

The operating temperature of VHTR components is much higher than that of conventional PWR due to high core outlet temperature of VHTR. Material requirements and technical issues of VHTR reactor components which are mainly dominated by high temperature service condition were discussed. The codification effort for high temperature material and design methodology are explained. The design class for VHTR components are classified as class A or B according to the recent ASME high temperature reactor design code. A separation of thermal boundary and pressure boundary is used for VHTR components as an elevated design solution. Key design characteristics for reactor pressure vessel, control rod, reactor internals, graphite reflector, circulator and intermediate heat exchanger were analysed. Thermo-mechanical analysis of the process heat exchanger, which was manufactured for test, is presented as an analysis example.

Ti-based bulk metallic glasses with high glass forming ability were developed through a systematic alloy design technique. The main alloy design strategy was the selection of alloying elements that may not be toxic in the human body. The $Ti_{45.0}Cu_{40.1}Zr_{12.7}Si_{2.2}$ alloy could be cast into an amorphous rod with the diameter of 3 mm by a suction casting technique using Cu mold. The compressive strength of the amorphous rod was measured as 1826 MPa. Since the Ti-based amorphous alloys consist of non-toxic elements, they can be widely used as bio-materials and eco-materials with unique and beneficial properties.

It is necessary to evaluate fatigue strength and reliability of the connecting rod which is core part in automotive engine to assure the high level of durability of automobile. For this purpose, the loading conditions in automotive engine is obtained by the dynamic analysis. Based on these results, the critical section was identified by the finite element analysis. The fatigue strength under constant amplitude was evaluated and the mean of the fatigue limit at R = -2.27 derived from the staircase method was 311.2MPa. And the failure probability( F$\sub$p/ ) derived from the strength-stress interference model is 0.0003% at the 99.99% confidence level and the mean factor of safety was 4.2.
