  • 최근에 발생한 아이티지진, 칠레지진의 지진파 기록에서 일반적으로 비탈면 안정해석에서 무시되었던 수직방향 지진가속도 성분이 크게 나타났다. 특히, 수직방향 지진성분은 진원이 내륙에 위치한 경우 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타난다. 그러므로 설계에 수직방향 지진성분을 고려하지 않은 지반 구조물들은 많은 인명과 재산 피해를 가져올 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 지진계수비에 따른 수평방향 항복지진계수의 하계해를 산정하였고, 비탈면 안정성에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 또한, 한계상태 수직방향 지진계수의 방향(상향, 하향)을 결정할 수 있는 관계식을 제안하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 상향 침투시험기를 이용하여 3가지 시료에 대하여 상향 투수시험을 수행하였고, 이를 통하여 한계속도, 한계동수경사, 투수계수 등을 산정하여 기존의 세굴 검토 방법에 대한 신뢰성을 파악하였다. 또한 세굴 설계인자에 대하여 FEM Program인 Plaxis를 이용하여 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 민감도 분석결과 제방 하부의 출구부 동수 경사에 가장 영향을 많이 미치는 인자는 중심코어의 높이로 나타났다. 또한 제방의 구배와 뚝마루 폭이 중심코어의 높이 다음으로 세굴에 영향성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 중심코어의 뚝마루폭은 출구부의 동수경사 변화에 영향이 적은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 민감도 분석결과를 이용하여 설계시 동수경사가 기준 동수경사보다 크게 나타날 경우 민감도 변화가 큰 설계인자를 변경하여 경제적이고 보다 손쉬운 출구부 동수경사 저감이 가능하리라 판단된다.

  • PURPOSE. When performing an occlusal procedure, it is recommended that the patient should be sitting straight with the head in a natural position. An inappropriate mandibular position caused by an incorrect occlusal record registration or occlusal adjustment can result in damaged teeth and cause functional disorders in muscles and temporomandibular joints. The purpose of this study was to clarify the influence of horizontal cephalic rotation on mandibular position by investigating the three-dimensional positions of condylar and incisal points. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A three-dimensional jaw movement measurement device with six degrees of freedom (the WinJaw System) was used to measure condylar and incisal points. The subjects were asked to sit straight with the head in a natural position. The subjects were then instructed to rotate their head horizontally $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $40^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$and $60^{\circ}$ in the right or left direction. RESULTS. The results indicated that horizontal cephalic rotation made the condyle on the rotating side shift forward, downward, and toward the inside, and the condyle on the counter rotating side shift backward, upward, and toward the outside. Significant differences in deviations were found for angles of rotation higher than $20^{\circ}$. The incisal point shifted in the forward and counterrotating directions, and significant differences were found for angles of rotation higher than $20^{\circ}$. CONCLUSION. The mandibular position was altered by horizontal cephalic rotations of more than $20^{\circ}$. It is essential to consider the possibility of deviation of the mandibular position during occlusal procedures.

  • The influence of the atmospheric radon background on the airborne gamma spectrum can seriously affect researchers' judgement of ground radiation information. However, due to load and endurance, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-borne gamma-ray spectrometry is difficulty installing upward-looking detectors to monitor atmospheric radon background. In this paper, an advanced spectral-ratio method was used to correct the atmospheric radon background for a UAV-borne gamma-ray spectrometry in Inner Mongolia, China. By correcting atmospheric radon background, the ratio of the average count rate of U window in the anomalous radon zone (S5) to that in other survey zone decreased from 1.91 to 1.03, and the average uranium content in S5 decreased from 4.65 mg/kg to 3.37 mg/kg. The results show that the advanced spectral-ratio method efficiently eliminated the influence of the atmospheric radon background on the UAV-borne gamma-ray spectrometry to accurately obtain ground radiation information in uranium exploration. It can also be used for uranium tailings monitoring, and environmental radiation background surveys.

  • In densely built areas, the development of underground transportation systems often involves twin excavations, which are sometimes unavoidably constructed adjacent to existing piled foundations. Because soil stiffness degrades with induced stress release and shear strain during excavation, it is vital to investigate the piled raft responses to subsequent excavation after the first tunnel in a twin-excavation system. The effects of deep excavations on existing piled foundations have been extensively investigated, but the influence of twin excavations on a piled raft is seldom reported in the literature. In this study, three-dimensional numerical analyses were carried out to investigate the influence of sand density on an existing piled raft (with a working load on top of the raft) due to twin excavations. A wide range of relative density (Dr) from loosest (30%), loose to medium (50% and 70%), and densest (90%) were selected to investigate the effects on settlement and load transfer mechanism of the piled raft during twin excavations. An advanced hypoplastic sand model (which can capture small-strain stiffness and stress-state dependent dilatancy of sand) was adopted. The model parameters are calibrated against centrifuge test results in sand reported in the literature. From the computed results, it is found that twin excavations in loose sand (Dr=30%) caused the most significant settlement. This is because of the higher stiffness of denser sand (Dr=90%) than that of loose sand. In contrast, a much larger tilting (maximum magnitude=0.18%) was computed in dense sand than in loose sand after the completion of the first excavation. As far as the load transfer mechanism along the piles is concerned, an upward load transfer to mobilize shaft resistance is observed in loose sand. On the contrary, a downward load transfer is observed in dense sand.

  • Wall interactions of direct injection spray were investigated using laser-sheet imaging, shadowgraphy, wetted footprint and phase Doppler interferometry techniques. A narrow-cone high-pressure swirl injector is used to inject iso-octane fuel onto a plate, which has three different impact angles inside a pressurized chamber. Heated air and plate conditions were compared with unheated cases. Injection interval was also varied in the heated case to compare dry- and wet- wall impingement behaviors. High-speed macroscopic Mie-scattering images showed that presence of wall and air temperature has only minor effect on the bulk spray structure and penetration speed for the narrow-cone injector tested. The overall bulk motions of the spray plume and its spatial position at a given time are basically unaffected until a few millimeters before impacting the wall. The surface properties of the impact surface, such as the temperature, the presence of a preexisting liquid film also have a small effect on the amount of wetting or the wetted footprint; however, they have strong influence on what occurs just after impact or after a film is formed. The shadowgraph in particular shows that the plate temperature has a significant effect on vapor phase propagation. Generally, 10-20% faster horizontal vapor phase propagation is observed along the wall at elevated temperature condition. For impingement onto a preexisting film, more splash and evaporation were also observed. Contrary to some preconceptions, there is no significant splashing and droplet rebounding from surfaces that are interposed in the path of the DI gasoline spray, especially for the oblique impact angle cases. There also appears to be a dense spray front consists of large sac spray droplets in the oblique impact angle cases. The bulk of the spray is not impacted on the surface, but rather is deflected by it The microscopic details as depicted by phase Doppler measurements show that the outcome of the droplet impaction events can be significantly influenced. Only droplets at the spray front have high enough Weber numbers for wall impact to wet, splash or rebound. Using the sign of vertical velocity, the time-resolved downward droplets and upward droplets are compared. The Weber number of upward moving droplets, which seldom exceeds unity, also decreases as the impact angle decreases, as the droplets tend to impact less and move along the wall in the deflected spray plume.

  • 여수연안은 어류 치사성 유해적조생물인 C. polykrikoides 적조가 매년 발생되는 해역일 뿐만 아니라 섬진강으로부터 담수유입이 돌산을 중심으로 많은 영향을 받고 있다. 담수유입에 따른 염분도 변화가 C. polykrikoides의 수직이동에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 지를 조사했다. 실험장치는 60l들이 아크릴 수조에 일반해수와 담수와 해수를 혼합시킨 시험구를 설정하여 C.polykrikoides의 수직부상 속도와 DNA/RNA함량 비교를 하였다. 실험은 5일 동안 시행했다. 실험개시로부터 종료시까지 시험구의 경우 상층부위에서는 염분이 20으로 나타난 반면에, 하층은 30 정도로 유지되었다. 그러나 용존산소와 pH 변화는 시험구와 대조구 모두 비슷한 양상을 보였다. 또한 chlorophyll a도 수조의 하층보다 상층에 높은 수치를 보였다. 24시간동안 C. polykrikoides 상$\cdot$하층 이동을 조사한 결과 점등이 되는 순간 시험구는 대조구에 비하여 월등히 높은 상승을 보였으나, 시간이 경과함에 따라 그 차이는 적었다. 소등이 되는 동안은 점등에 비하여 상$\cdot$하층 현저한 차이를 볼 수 없고 대부분 균일하게 분포하는 양상을 보였다. 또한 실험 종료시나 24시간 주 $\cdot$야간 수직이동 시 대조구에 비하여 시험구에 분포하고 있는 C. polykrikoides의 DNA 및 RNA 변화폭이 높았다 이 실험을 통하여 담수유입은 C. polykrikoides 세포에 많은 영향을 미칠 수 있을 것으로 보이며, 특히 신속한 수직상승으로 인하여 여기에 대한 C. polykrikoides의 모니터링이 절실히 요구되는 바이다.

  • 본 연구에서는 열중량분석법(Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis, TGA)을 이용하여 우레아 수용액의 농도와 열전달 속도가 우레아 수용액으로부터 암모니아가 생성되는 과정에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 또한 1,000 $Nm^3$/h 규모의 유류 연소 보일러에 도입된 관통형 노즐을 사용하여 우레아의 분사방향을 상방과 하방으로 하였을 때를 비교함으로써 분사된 우레아가 지나는 경로에서 주위온도가 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 질소 또는 공기 분위기에서 수행된 열중량분석 실험에서, 우레아는 산소의 존재유무에 관계없이 동일한 열분해 과정을 거쳤으며, 우레아 수용액은 가열속도에 따라 매우 다른 무게 감량 경향을 보여 가열속도가 우레아의 분해에 중요한 인자임을 나타내었다. 농도가 10%~40%인 우레아 수용액에서 우레아 열분해 시작 온도는 큰 차이를 보이지 않으므로, 농도의 영향은 그리 크지 않았다. 위치가 다른 세 곳에서 온도를 동일하게 유지하였을 때 상부 분사인 경우 탈질 효율은 각각 68.1%, 71.8%, 70.8%로 나타나 크게 차이가 나지 않았다. 동일 지역을 향하여 하부에서 분사한 경우와 상부에서 분사한 경우의 탈질 효율을 비교하면 각각 68.1%와 9.5%를 보여 동일한 지역에 분사된 우레아일지라도 분사방향에 따라 탈질 효율에는 큰 차이를 보였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze how social comparative learning of forum participants affects learning effects with an emphasis on participants' characteristics. As today's society is changing at a fast pace, the desire for new knowledge and information has grown accordingly. To quench this thirst for knowledge and information, seminars, symposiums, conferences, forums, conventions, exhibitions, and more are taking place as part of knowledge sharing events across the world. Also, the increased need for knowledge and information exchange has led the development and growth of the convention industry and Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Events (Exhibitions)(MICE) industry. Especially, forum is a type of event which invites professionals and specialists to discuss diverse topics and share their knowledge and experience with the audience. The participants utilize it as an opportunity to get close to information providers and enjoy the pleasure of knowledge exchange. However, there have been few empirical analyses on who the participants are, why they attend forum, how they pick up and learn new information and knowledge, and what kinds of learning effects they achieve after the event. This paper is to analyze how social comparative learning of the forum's participants influences learning effects based on Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory (1977, 1997, 1982. 2001) and Leon Festinger's Social Comparative Theory (1950, 1954). By dividing the participants into two groups, one with high level of self-efficacy and the other with low level of self-efficacy, we have examined the differences in learning effects between the two groups using them as moderating variables. This study was conducted in 'MBN Y Forum 2016,' which is one of the most representative knowledge exchange forums of South Korea. An online survey was distributed out and, 1,307(39.2%) out of the total participants of 3,338 have completed the survey. The survey included questions about whether the participants have gained positive or negative motivations by comparing themselves to the speakers (upward comparison learning) and other participants (lateral comparison learning). The results have shown the quality of messages that the speakers are presenting as knowledge providers is the most significant factor that acts on learning effects. Particularly, the participants had higher levels of self-efficacy and self-esteem than average people. They had a clear goal to learn from the speakers (upward comparison) and received positive motivations from them. In other words, no negative learning effects had been found. This presents a managerial implication that having a qualified speaker is necessary for a forum to be successful. On the other hand, the results from the comparison with the other participants (lateral comparison) were different. The participants were likely to compare themselves to the other participants through observational learning. They could compare listening attitudes, language skills, or capabilities to ask a question. The results have showed the participants received positive motivations from the lateral group but at the same time were jealous of abilities of the others. When the quality of a question by a participant is not good enough, it can have a negative influence on the participants' learning effects. The first group with high levels of self-efficacy and self-esteem had no correlation to negative learning effects from the speakers. They rather had a strong desire to learn from the speakers. On the contrary, the participants perceived the lateral group as a learning subset and competitor. The second group with low levels of self-efficacy and self-esteem saw the quasi-group as a rival. This presents that the individual learning effects can be different depending on the participants' characteristics.

  • Transport of colored papers and decomposition of leaf litter of Quercus mongolica, Acer pseudo-sieboldianum, and Kalopanax pictus were investigated on three patches differentiated by aspect and understory in a temperate hardwood forest. Two patches are represented by dwarf bamboo (Patch SS) and herbaceous plants (Patch S), respectively, Iying on a south-west-facing slope. The other patch (Patch N) is located on a northeastfacing slope with herbaceous plants. Colored papers were placed on the patches to understand the pattern of litter movement on the ground. Papers were move dispersed in Patch S than in the other two patches. Some of the colored papers placed in Patch S moved upward. The results suggest that the litter movement is affected by aspect and that the leaf litter is retained by dwarf bamboo in Patch SS. Decay constant of Q. mongolica was significantly (p<0.05) lower than those of K. pictus and A. pseudo-sieboldianum. Decay rates of Q. mongolica were significantly different between Patches N and S and between Patches SS and S (p<0.05). On the other hand, decay rates of the other species were not significantly different among the three patches. The results suggest that aspect and understory exert an influence on redistribution and decomposition of leaf litter and that the effects could be different among the plant species.
