AER옹벽은 사면안정에 적용하는 억지말뚝을 옹벽에 결합한 구조로서 새롭게 개발되었으며, 종래의 옹벽보다 안정성과 경제성이 크게 향상 되었다. AER옹벽에 적용된 억지말뚝은 지주보로 명명하고, 지주보에 의해 구조적인 안정성을 증가될 것으로 판단되어 현장모형실험과 3D 수치해석을 실시하였다. 현장실험의 결과, L형 옹벽에 비해 토압이 상당히 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있으며, 3D 수치해석을 통해 일반적인 L형 옹벽과 AER옹벽을 비교한 결과 최소 29.85%의 수평변위억제효과를 확인하였다. 즉, AER옹벽의 지주보의 뛰어난 역학적 안정성을 통해 경제성을 높일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, deep excavation for high-rise buildings occurs frequently to accommodate the rapidly increasing population in urban area. The stability of the earth retaining structures for deep excavation becomes more critical. The behavior of the earth retaining structures should be accurately predicted in a design stage, but the predicted behavior is different from the measured data due to uncertain soil properties and problems in construction. In this study the back-analysis using Powell's optimization theory was performed to match the measured deflection and results obtained from back-analysis were presented.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the lower extremities muscle activation between squatting exercise with gym ball and wall for improving muscle strengthening in lower extremities. METHODS: Participants were 21 university students (males 10, females 11) who didn't have any problem with orthopedic surgery. Participants performed squatting exercise with gym ball and wall. Squatting exercise with gym ball were performed using by gym ball behind back, and the gym ball were fixed in back and wall. We asked participants to push back the gym ball slightly to prevent fall of ball. Wall squatting exercise, we ask participants to contact their back in wall slightly in order to prevent trunk flexion during performed squatting exercise. Each squatting exercise had performed until knee joint were flexed at 60 degree, and maintained five seconds. We collected data from E.M.G of Biceps femoris, Gastrocnemius, Vastus medialis and lateralis, Tibialis anterior of lower extremity in isometric phase of knee joint angle 60 degree of each squatting exercise. We analysed data using by ANOVA and independent t-test of SPSS PC ver.20.0 in order to compare the muscle activation between squatting exercise with gym ball and wall. RESULT: All of lower extremities muscle activation showed more higher value in squatting exercise with gym ball than squatting exercise with wall, especially there was significantly difference of muscle activation in vastus medialis, tibialis anterior between squatting exercise with gymball and with wall. CONCLUSION: On comprehensively considering the results of the present study, we suggested that squatting exercise with gym ball was more effective method improving lower extremity muscle strengthening.

To stabilize the excavations in urban area, soil anchorage is among the very common methods in geotechnical engineering. A more efficient deformation analysis can potentially lead to cost-effective and safer designs. To this end, a total of 116 three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) models of a deep excavation supported by tie-back wall system were analyzed in this study. An initial validation was conducted through examination of the results against the Texas A&M excavation cases. After the validation step, an extensive parametric study was carried out to cover significant design parameters of tie-back wall system in deep excavations. The numerical results indicated that the maximum horizontal displacement values of the wall (δ_hm) and maximum surface settlement (δ_vm) increase by an increase in the value of ground anchors inclination relative to the horizon. Additionally, a change in the wall embedment depth was found to be contributing more to δ_vm than to δ_hm. Based on the 3D FE analysis results, two simple equations are proposed to estimate excavation deformations for different scenarios in which the geometric configuration parameters are taken into account. The model proposed in this study can help the engineers to have a better understanding of the behavior of such systems.

본 연구에서는 직접 알고리즘이 적용된 역해석 기법을 이용하여 실제 흙막이 벽체 현장 2개소를 대상으로 역해석을 수행하였으며 이를 유전알고리즘과 비교하여 역해석 기법의 적정성을 평가하였다. 또한, 프로그램의 효과적인 활용방안을 제시하기 위해 역해석 입력값인 계측 데이터를 굴착단계별로 다르게 입력한 후 역해석 결과(변위, 부재력)의 적용성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과, 직접알고리즘과 유전알고리즘 모두 적용성이 높으나 본 프로그램에 대한 최적화는 직접알고리즘이 더 잘 예측되는 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 직접알고리즘이 적용된 역해석 프로그램을 효과적으로 사용하기 위해서는 최종 굴착단계가 8단계~11단계인 현장을 대상으로 7단계 굴착시의 계측데이터를 입력할 경우 비교적 정확한 흙막이 거동을 예측할 수 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

The purpose of theis study was to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasonic instrumentation in removing debris and smear layer from the root canal walls. 54 extracted, permanent single rooted teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups of 9 teeth. After canal preparation, the teeth were longitudinally sectioned. The sepcimens were then naturally dried for 2 days, given a maximun thickness gold coating, and examined under the SEM (JSM-35C type, JAPAN). Photographs of all specimens were then taken of the middle and the apical third of the root canal wall. The results were as follows: 1. In all groups, debris and the smear layer were not completely removed from the canal wall 2. There were no significant differences between at the apical third and at the middle third in removing debris and the smear layer in all groups. 3. There were no significant difference between the step - back group and the ultrasound group in removing debris and smear layer. 4. In general, the step - back/ultrasonund groups showed greater canal debridement than the step - back group or ultrasound group. 5. The step - back/ultrasound group with a No. 25 file for 3 min. showed significantly greater canal debridement than the step-back group (p<0.05), or the other step - back/ultrasound groups(p<0.05).

Unbonded Post-Tensioned (UPT) precast concrete systems have been shown to provide excellent seismic resistance. In order to improve understanding of the dynamic response of UPT systems, a series of snap back tests on four UPT systems was undertaken consisting of one Single Rocking Wall (SRW) and three Precast Wall with End Columns (PreWEC) systems. The snap back tests provided both a static pushover and a nonlinear free vibration response of a system. As expected the SRW exhibited an approximate bi-linear inertia force-drift response during the free vibration decay and the PreWEC walls showed an inertia force-drift response with increased strength and energy dissipation due to the addition of steel O-connectors. All walls exhibited negligible residual drifts regardless of the number of O-connectors or the post-tensioning force. When PreWEC systems of the same strength were compared the inclusion of further energy dissipating O-connectors was found to decrease the measured peak wall acceleration. Both the local and global wall parameters measured at pseudo-static and dynamic loading rates showed similar behaviour, which demonstrates that the dynamic behaviour of UPT walls is well represented by pseudo-static tests. The SRW was found to have Equivalent Viscous Damping (EVD) between 0.9-3.8% and the three PreWEC walls were found to have maximum EVD of between 14.7-25.8%.

The use of reinforced earth walls in permanent structures is getting it's popularity. Despite a number of advantages of reinforced earth walls over conventional concrete retaining walls, there exit concerns over long-term residual deformation when subjected to repeated and/or cyclic loads, during their service period. In this investigation, the effect of preloading in reducing long term residiual deformation of back-to-back reinforced soil wall under sustained and/or repeated loading enviormentment using a series of reduced-scale model tests. It is found that the preloading technique can be an effective means of controlling residual deformations of reinforced soils under varisous loading conditions.

Computed Radiography(CR) is a relatively new technology that relies on an image plate(IP) as an alternate x-ray sensor to screen/film. Standard CR cassettes do not have lead foil behind the IP to control scatter radiation. The result of this study indicate that such control is needed. In most screen/film cassettes, that lines the rear of the cassette eliminates back scatter radiation. This study was performed to Investigate on the effects of back scatter in CR images by size of exposure field, distance between the CR cassette and the wall of radiography room. 1. It showed artifacts from hinges and clips located on the back of CR cassette by back scatter radiation. 2. The greater effects of back scatter radiation in CR images was attributed to the greater size of exposure field and the longer distance between the CR cassette and the wall of radiography room.

The head-capacity corves for pumps developed by the pump manufacturer are based on tests of a single pump operating in a semi-infinite pool with no nearby walls or floors and with no stray currents. Hence, flow into the pump suction is symmetrical with no vortices or swirling. Pump station designers rely on these curves to define the operating conditions for the pump selected. However, various constraints such as size, cost, and limitations on storage time require walls, floors, and pump intakes to be close proximity to each other. From this background, the authors are carrying out a systematic study on the flow characteristics of intakes within a sump found in pump stations. Model pump intake basin is designed and PIV is adopted as a measuring tool to capture the instantaneous flow patterns. Special attention is paid to investigate the flow patterns near the free surface, side-wall, and back-wall due to different clearances from back-wall to vortical intake pipe. Moreover, the locations and patterns of the various types of vortices that were found in the examinations are discussed.
