Round robin analyses for vessel failure probabilities due to PTS events are proposed for plant-specific analyses of all types of reactors developed in Korea. Four organizations, that are responsible for regulation, operation, research and design of the nuclear power plant in Korea, participated in the round robin analysis. The vessel failure probabilities from the probabilistic fracture mechanics analyses are calculated to assure the structural integrity of the reactor pressure vessel during transients that are expected to initiate PTS events. The failure probabilities due to various parameters are compared with each other. All results are obtained based on several assumptions about material properties, flaw distribution data, and transient data such as pressure, temperature, and heat transfer coefficient. The realistic input data can be used to obtain more realistic failure probabilities. The various results presented in this study will be helpful not only for benchmark calculations, result comparisons, and verification of PFM codes developed but also as a contribution to knowledge management for the future generation.

In the present study, vibration analysis of double bonded micro sandwich cylindrical shells with saturated porous core and carbon/boron nitride nanotubes (CNT/BNNT) reinforced composite face sheets under multi-physical loadings based on Cooper-Naghdi theory is investigated. The material properties of the micro structure are assumed to be temperature dependent, and each of the micro-tubes is placed on the Pasternak elastic foundations, and mechanical, moisture, thermal, electrical, and magnetic forces are effective on the structural behavior. The distributions of porous materials in three distributions such as non-linear non-symmetric, nonlinear-symmetric, and uniform are considered. The relationship including electro-magneto-hydro-thermo-mechanical loadings based on modified couple stress theory is obtained and moreover the governing equations of motion using the energy method and the Hamilton's principle are derived. Also, Navier's type solution is also used to solve the governing equations of motion. The effects of various parameters such as material length scale parameter, temperature change, various distributions of nanotube, volume fraction of nanotubes, porosity and Skempton coefficients, and geometric parameters on the natural frequency of double bonded micro sandwich cylindrical shells are investigated. Increasing the porosity and the Skempton coefficients of the core in micro sandwich cylindrical shell lead to increase the natural frequency of the structure. Cylindrical shells and porous materials in the industry of filters and separators, heat exchangers and coolers are widely used and are generally accepted today.

본 연구는 두 종류의 수축저감제를 혼입한 변형경화형 시멘트 복합체(SHCC)의 압축, 인장 및 휨 특성을 평가하기 위하여 계획되었으며, 재령과 수축저감제의 종류 및 혼입률을 변수로 진행되었다. SHCC는 설계기준압축강도 50 MPa이며, 섬유는 PVA 섬유를 2.2% 혼입하였다. 배합에 혼입된 수축저감제는 상변이 물질로 수화현상으로 발생되는 열을 흡수 또는 방출하여 급격한 수축 및 팽창을 제어하는 물질이다. 수축저감제의 혼입에 대한 영향은 선변형 길이변화 실험과 압축, 인장 및 휨 성능의 측면에서 평가되었으며, 수축저감제를 혼입할 경우 초기 재령에서의 수축량이 감소되었다. 또한 수축저감제를 혼입함에 따라 균열 분산 성능과 인장 및 휨 성능이 개선되었다.

By the high-temperature pad conditioning process: The slurry residues in pores and grooves of the polishing pad were clearly removed. These clear pores and enlarged grooves made the slurry attack the oxide surface. The changed slurry properties by high-temperature pad conditioning process made the oxide surface hydro-carbonate to be removed easily.

NiTi alloy is widely used innumerous biomedical applications (orthodontics, cardiovascular, orthopaedics, etc.) for its distinctive thermomechanical and mechanical properties such as shape memory effect, super elasticity, low elastic modulus and high damping capacity. However, NiTi alloy is still a controversial biomaterial because of its high Ni content which can trigger the risk of allergy and adverse reactions when Ni ion releases into the human body. In order to improve the corrosion resistance of the TiNi alloy and suppress the release of Ni ions, many surface modification techniques have been employed in previous literature such as thermal oxidation, laser surface treatment, sol-gel method, anodic oxidation and electrochemical methods. In this paper, the NiTi was electrochemically etched in various electrolytes to modify surface. The microstructure, element distribution, phase composition and roughness of the surface were investigatedby scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDS), X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Systematic controlling of nano and submicron surface features was achieved by altered density of hydro fluidic acid in etchant solution. Nanoscale surface topography, such as, pore density, pore width, pore height, surface roughness and surface tension were extensively analyzed as systematical variables.Importantly, bone forming cell, osteoblast adhesion was increased in high density of hydro fluidic treated surface structures, i.e., in greater nanoscale surface roughness and in high surface areas through increasing pore densities.All results delineate the importance of surface topography parameter (pores) inNiTi to increase the biocompatibility of NiTi in identical chemistry which is crucial factor for determining biomaterials.

The Nd： YAG laser is commonly used throughout many fields such as accurate material processing, IC marking, semiconductor annealing, medical operation devices, etc., due to the fact that it has good thermal and mechanical properties and is easy to maintain. In materials processing, it is essential to vary the laser power density for specific materials. The laser power density can be mainly controlled by the current pulse width and pulse repetition rate. It is important to control the laser energy in those fields using a pulsed laser. In this paper we propose the constant-frequency current resonant half-bridge converter and monitoring of capacitor charging voltage. This laser power supply is designed and fabricated to have less switching loss, compact size, isolation with primary and secondary transformers, and detection of capacitor charging voltage. Also, the output stabilization characteristics of this Nd： YAG laser system are investigated. The test results are described as a function of laser output energy and flashlamp arc discharging constant. At the energy storage capacitor charges constant voltage, the laser output power is 2.3％ error range in 600[V].

암반내의 절리는 암반의 전체적인 역학적 거동에 중요한 역할을 한다. 암반에 대한 수치해석은 절리면의 역학적 물성, 방향성, 간격 그리고 연속성을 정교하게 모델링할수 있어야 한다. 본 논문의 내재적 절리-연속체 접근법은 절리군을 포함한 암반의 역학적 모델을 제시한다. 암반에 대한 강성 텐서는 온전한 암석과 절리군의 역학적 특성으로부터 산정하였다. 이는 온전한 암석과 절리군에 대한 연속적 강성 시스템의 컴플라이언스 텐서 합으로부터 산정할 수 있다. 암반사면의 평면파괴에 대한 수치해석은 기존의 daylight envelope과 측면한계를 적용하는 경험적인 방법과 상당히 일치함을 확인하였다. 개발된 내재적 절리-연속체 모델은 연속체 기반으로 수식화되어 기존의 절리에 대한 열-수리-화학적 실험적 결과들을 실제 수치해석에 적용할수 있을 것이다.

발파의 영향으로 생기는 굴착손상대(Excavation Damaged Zone, EDZ) 영역은 응력재분배 등으로 응력이 변화하며 처분장이 위치하는 깊은 심도에서는 그 영향이 두드러진다. 특히 균열생성으로 인한 투수특성 증가는 지하수 유입량 증가 및 방사성 핵종의 유출 가능성을 증가시키므로 반드시 고려되어야 하는 영역이다. 본 연구에서는 FLAC2D Version 7.0을 이용하여 EDZ가 없는 경우(No EDZ), EDZ가 있으며 거리에 따라 일정한 물성을 갖는 경우(Uniform EDZ), EDZ가 있으며 거리와 위치에 따라 무작위 물성을 갖는 경우(Random EDZ) 3가지로 나누어 비교하여 손상대 유무에 따른 수리-역학적 복합거동 분석을 통해 안정성 해석을 진행하였다. 그 결과 터널 변위의 경우 Random EDZ에서 No EDZ에 비해 평균 423 %, Uniform EDZ에 비해 16 % 크게 나타났다. 지하수 유입량은 Random EDZ에서 No EDZ에 비해 최대 17.3 %, Uniform EDZ에 비해 10.8 % 증가하였다. 굴착 후 응력재분배에 의해 터널 주변의 투수계수는 터널 벽면 모서리 부분과 터널 천정 부근에서 최대 10배 이상 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 측압계수가 증가함에 따라 터널 벽면 주변의 투수계수는 부분적으로 증가하지만 터널 전면에서의 지하수 유입량은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. FLAC3D를 이용한 역학적 해석에서도 FLAC2D와 유사한 결과를 보였으며 터널 굴착 진행에 따른 소성대의 발생으로 인한 약간의 차이를 확인할 수 있었다.
