최근 들어 도심지 재개발과 산업단지 조성 등이 활발하게 진행되면서 깎기 비탈면의 효율적 활용과 민원방지 그리고 환경훼손을 최소화할 수 있는 공법의 필요성이 점차 커지고 있다. 판넬식 옹벽은 지보재 보강을 통해 원지반의 전단강도를 증가시키고 전면판인 프리캐스트 판넬과 지보재를 체결하여 개별적 벽체를 형성시킴으로써 수평토압에 저항하는 공법이다. 프리캐스트 판넬의 적용으로 기존 옹벽에서 발생하던 콘크리트 현장타설에 의한 공기지연과 콘크리트 품질저하 등의 문제는 다소 해결되었지만 비탈면 과다절취에 의한 사토처리 및 토취장 확보, 및 옹벽 전면 콘크리트 노출로 인한 경관성 저하문제는 여전히 미결과제로 남아있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 판넬식옹벽의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 판넬 전면을 자연암반형으로 연출하고 수직의 원지반에도 부착이 가능하도록 공정을 개선하였으며 실내 및 현장시험을 통하여 개발된 옹벽의 현장 적용성 평가를 수행하였다. 판넬에 대한 실내시험을 수행하여 자연암반형 판넬의 자체강도 및 거동특성에 대한 검증을 수행하였으며 현장 시험시공을 통하여 수직절취 및 원지반 부착에 대한 현장 적용성을 평가하였다. 또한 시험시공 시 보강재 및 비탈면에 대한 계측 을 수행하였으며 이를 3차원 수치해석 결과와 비교·분석하였다. 실내시험 결과 사보강에 의한 판넬의 펀칭강도 증가를 확인하였으며 현장 시험시공을 통하여 원지반 부착식 옹벽의 시공성 및 현장 적용성을 확인하였다. 또한, 장기계측 및 수치해석적 검증을 통하여 원지반 부착식 옹벽 시스템이 시공중 및 장기적으로 안정성이 확보됨을 확인하였다.

The purpose of this study is to compare growth condition of landscape woody plants growing on the different ground structures in apartment complex. I chose Manseok Beach Town Complex 2, in Manseok-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon which has both natural and artificial ground as a subject site. Analysis of three phases of soil showed that artificial ground had average liquid phase of 30.89%, artificial ground mounding 33.88% and natural ground 24.40%. It means that artificial ground has higher water content than natural ground despite having same earthiness. It is believed that artificial ground is not as well drained as natural ground even though it is connected to the natural ground and has a deep soil depth because of mounding. Comparative study between woody plants on natural ground and those on artificial ground demonstrated that trees on natural ground grew 40.4% compared to those on artificial ground(0.875mm more) in terms of diameter growth. Average diameter growth of trees on natural ground was 3.040mm against 2.165mm for those on artificial ground. All 19 tree species which were measured for root diameter growth showed similar or higher growth on natural ground than on artificial ground. When it comes to growth of height, arborvitae showed highest growth on natural ground, followed by Thuja occidentalis, Pinus strobus, Magnolia denudata, Diospyros kaki and Aesculus turbinata. I measured branch growth and rate of leaf adherence of Pinus strobus. Average annual rate of branch growth of woody plants on natural ground was twice as high as those on artificial ground. I could conclude that ground structure influences branch growth of Pinus strobus. Statistics analysis of tree damage demonstrated significant result, meaning that there is a difference in the average damage rate depending on structure of ground. In order to validate growth difference by planting ground, I conducted T-Test of growth of diameter, root diameter, branch and height on woody plants growing on natural and artificial ground. As a result, it is believed that there is a difference in the growth of trees depending on the ground structure. Putting all these results together demonstrates that woody plants on natural ground generally grow better than those on artificial ground, which means ground structure does have an influence on the environment of growth of trees.

In this article, the dynamic parameters (frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratios) of the scaled concrete structure and the dynamic parameters (frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratios) of the entire outer surface of titanium dioxide, 80 micron in thickness are compared using operational modal analysis method. Ambient excitation was provided from micro tremor ambient vibration data on ground level. Enhanced Frequency Domain Decomposition (EFDD) was used for the output only modal identification. From this study, a good correlation between mode shapes was found. Titanium dioxide applied to the entire outer surface of the scaled concrete structure has an average of 11.78% difference in frequency values and 10.15% in damping ratios, proving that nanomaterials can be used to increase rigidity in structures, in other words, for reinforcement. Another important result determined in the study was the observation of the adherence of titanium dioxide and similar nanomaterials mentioned in the introduction to concrete structure surfaces was at the highest level.

The dynamic properties (frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratios) of the scaled WPC warehouse are compared using the operational modal analysis approach to the dynamic parameters (frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratios) of the full outer surface of titanium dioxide, 70 micron in thickness. Micro tremor ambient vibration data on ground level was used to provide ambient excitation. For the output-only modal identification, Enhanced Frequency Domain Decomposition (EFDD) was used. This study discovered a strong correlation between mode shapes. Titanium dioxide applied to the entire outer surface of the scaled WPC warehouse results in an average 14.05 percent difference in frequency values and 7.61 percent difference in damping ratios, demonstrating that nanomaterials can be used to increase rigidity in structures, or for reinforcement. Another significant finding in the study was the highest level of adherence of titanium dioxide and similar nanomaterials mentioned in the introduction to WPC structure surfaces.

PURPOSE. This study evaluated the availability of multi-directionally forged (MDF) titanium (Ti) as a component of removable partial dentures (RPDs). MDF-Ti remarkably improved the mechanical properties of RPDs due to its ultrafine-grained structure. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The wear resistance, plaque adhesion, and machinability of MDF-Ti were tested. As controls, commercially pure (CP) titanium was used for wear, plaque adhesion, and machinability tests. For wear resistance, the volume losses of the titanium teeth before and after wear tests were evaluated. Plaque adhesion was evaluated by the assay of Streptococcus mutans. In the machinability test, samples were cut and ground by a steel fissure bur and carborundum (SiC) point. An unpaired t-test was employed for the analysis of the significant differences between MDF-Ti and the control in the results for each test. RESULTS. Wear resistance and plaque adherence of MDF-Ti similar to those of CP-Ti (P>.05) were indicated. MDF-Ti exhibited significantly larger volume loss than CP-Ti in all conditions except 100/30,000 g/rpm in machinability tests (P<.05). CONCLUSION. Although the wear resistance and plaque adherence of MDF-Ti were comparable to those of controls, MDF-Ti showed better machinability than did CP-Ti. MDF-Ti could be used as a framework material for RPDs.

Purpose: To examine the effects of the GEAP on pain, fatigue, self-esteem, perceived health status and self-efficacy in patients with chronic arthritis. Methods: One group Pre- & post-test design was used. Outcome domains included pain, number of painful joints, fatigue, self-esteem, perceived health status and self-efficacy. Thirty-four patients were recruited over four times from a rheumatic clinic affiliated to a university medical center in Seoul, Korea The GEAP is an exercise program modified by the investigators from PACE program which developed by Arthritis Foundation. The program duration is about 60 minutes, three times a week for 6 weeks. Participants were predominantly women (68%) ; on average 57.3 years old; and diagnossed with RA (58.8), osteoarthritis (29.4) or other (11.8). Results: After completing the GEAP, subjects showed significant improvement in pain (p=.02), number of painful joints (P= .04), fatigue (p= .0001), and perceived health status (P=.006). There were no improvements in self-esteem and self-efficacy score for adults with chronic rheumatic diseases. Conclusion: This study showed that the GEAP is an effective exercise intervention for improving outcomes for patients with chronic arthritis. More sample and research are needed to 1) accurately evaluate on self-esteem and self-efficacy; 2) understand and improve adherence. And also a longer follow up period is recommended to evaluate long-term effects of the PACE program.

The design principles and implementation of rebar lap splice in architectural structures are governed by building regulations. Nevertheless, the minimization of rebar-cutting waste (RCW) is often impeded by the mandatory requirements pertaining to the rebar lapping zone as prescribed in design codes. In real-world construction scenarios, compliance with these rules often falls short due to hurdles concerning productivity, quality, safety, time, and cost. This discrepancy between code stipulations and on-the-ground construction practices necessitates an academic exploration. The goal of this research was to delve into the effect of rebar lap splice placement on the robustness and constructability of building edifices. The study initially took on a review of the computation of rebar lapping length and the rules revolving around the lapping zone. Following this, a structural robustness and constructability examination was undertaken, focusing on adherence to the lap splice zone. The interpretations and deductions of the research led to the following insights: (1) the efficacy of rebar lap splice is not solely contingent on the moment, and (2) the implementation of rebar lap splice beyond the specified zone can match the structural integrity and robustness of those confined within the designated area. As a result, the constraints on the rebar lapping zone ought to be revisited and possibly relaxed. The conclusions drawn from this research are anticipated to reconcile the disconnect between building codes and practical construction conditions, furnishing invaluable academic substantiation to further the endeavor of achieving near-zero RCW.

토목섬유(Geosynthetics)는 도로, 철도, 항만, 댐, 제방 등의 각종 토목구조물에 보강, 배수, 필터, 분리, 침식방지 등의 용도로 폭넓게 적용되고 있다. 특히 토목섬유는 보강토옹벽이나 사면/지반 보강 등을 위한 보강용도로서의 적용이 활발하며, 최근에는 성토체의 안정성과 시공성 및 경제성 향상을 도모하기 위해 성토지지말뚝 상부를 토목섬유로 보강하는 기법에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 토목섬유 보강재를 사용한 토목구조물의 안정성 해석을 위하여 실내 모형실험이나 현장에 적용된 토목섬유에 스트레인게이지를 부착하여 토목섬유의 인장변형을 측정하는 방법을 사용하고 있다. 그러나, 토목섬유의 제조방법과 강성도 및 스트레인게이지 부착방법 등에 따라 측정된 인장변형률 값의 편차가 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 지오그리드와 직포, 부직포 등 3가지 형태의 토목섬유를 대상으로 스트레인게이지가 부착된 토목섬유에 대한 광폭인장강도시험을 수행하여 video extensometer를 이용하여 측정된 인장변위로부터 산정한 인장변형률과 스트레인게이지에 의해 측정된 인장변형률을 비교, 분석함으로써 스트레인게이지 실측값의 신뢰성을 평가하였다. 분석 결과, 스트레인게이지 실측값은 비교적 강성이 높은 지오그리드와 직포의 경우에는 신뢰도가 높으나, 강성이 작은 부직포의 경우에는 신뢰도가 매우 낮음을 알 수 있었다.

일리노이 옥수수 포장에서 질소비료의 적정 시용량 결정에는 작물 수량의 극대화와 더불어 질소 손실의 최소화가 고려 되어야 하는데 이를 위하여 질소 전문가체계(NES)가 개발되었다. NES는 전문가의 지식과 사고의 결정과정을 컴퓨터체계로 전환하는 Smart Element program에 의해 만들어졌다. NES는 현재 일리노이 옥수수포장에서 사용중인 생산성지수 (PI)와 토양중 유기물함량 (SOM) 및 시비전 질산태질소 함량 (PSNT)의 요인을 고려하여 시비수준을 결정하였는데 각각의 수준에 따라 49개의 rule 등을 사용하였다. NES는 시스템상에서 성공적으로 작동되었으며 3개의 토양특성 (PI, SOM, PSNT)를 입력하여 적정 시비량을 결정하였다. NES는 다른 시비량 결정 방법에 비해 환경에 대해 질소의 유입을 현저히 줄일 수 있었으며 모델에 대한 검증이 계속될 것이다. 그러나 이에 따른 수량의 감소를 보여, 질소 비료의 적정 시비량은 수량과 더불어 질소유실에 따른 환경 영향평가와 기타 다른 경제적 또는 토양의 물리화학적 요인이 고려되어야 하며 이 요인을 추가한 NES의 검증 및 개선방향이 모색되어야 할 것이다.
