심지층처분장 공학적방벽의 성능 보장은 장기처분안전성 측면에서 뿐만 아니라 심지층처분장의 효율적인 설계를 위해서도 매우 중요하다. 따라서 지하실험시설에서 수행되는 현장실험들을 통해 심지층처분장 조건 하에서의 공학적방벽 성능을 입증할 필요가 있다. 이 논문에서는 심지층처분장 공학적방벽의 성능을 실증하기 위해, 지난 수십 년 동안 전 세계에서 수행되어온 주요 현장실험의 현황과 그 결과에 대해 검토하였다. 먼저 심지층처분장의 폐쇄 후 성능을 모사하는 공학적방벽시스템의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동을 규명하기 위한 현장실험들이 분석되었다. 아울러 실제 심지층처분장의 환경에서 완충재의 성능을 조사하기 위한 현장실험들이 검토되었다. 완충재-콘크리트 상호반응, 완충재, 뒷채움재 및 플러그의 설치, 그리고 근계암반 특성과 처분용기 재질의 부식 현상을 규명하기 위한 현장실험들의 기술현황도 분석되었다.

The widening project on Freeway No.1 in Taiwan has a total length of roughly 14 kilometers, and includes three special bridges, namely a 216 m long-span bridge crossing the original freeway, an F-bent double decked bridge in a co-constructed section, and a steel and prestressed concrete composite bridge. This study employed in-situ monitoring in conjunction with numerical modeling to establish a real-time monitoring system for the three bridges. In order to determine the initial static and dynamic behavior of the real bridges, forced vibration experiments, in-situ static load experiments, and dynamic load experiments were first carried out on the newly-constructed bridges before they went into use. Structural models of the bridges were then established using the finite element method, and in-situ vehicle load weight, arrangement, and speed were taken into consideration when performing comparisons employing data obtained from experimental measurements. The results showed consistency between the analytical simulations and experimental data. After determining a bridge's initial state, the proposed in-situ monitoring system, which is employed in conjunction with the established finite element model, can be utilized to assess the safety of a bridge's members, providing useful reference information to bridge management agencies.

In performing in situ heating transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for materials characterizations, arising concerns such as specimen drifts and unintentional Cu contamination are discussed. In particular, we analysed the thermal and mechanical characteristics of in situ heating holders to estimate thermal drift phenomena. From the experimental results, we suggest an empirical model to describe the thermal drift behavior so that we can design an effective plan for in situ heating experiment. Practical approaches to minimize several hindrances arisen from the experiment are proposed. We believe that our experimental recommendations will be useful for a microscopist fascinated with the powerful potential of in situ heating TEM.

The objective of the study was to determine nutrition regime and limitation in the Boryeng Reservoir where there's a water tunnel between Geum River and the reservoir. Evaluation was conducted through in situ algal bioassay experiments (in situ ABEs) using the cubitainer setting in the reservoirs. For in situ ABEs, we compared and analyzed variations in chlorophyll-a (CHL-a) and phosphorus concentrations in Boryeong Reservoir before and after the water tunnel construction. We then analyzed the nutrient effects on the reservoir. Analysis for nitrogen and phosphorus was done in the three locations of the reservoir and two locations of the ABEs. The in situ ABEs results showed that phosphorous and Nitrogen, the primary limiting nutrient regulating the algal biomass was not limited in the system. The treatments of phosphorus or simultaneous treatments of N+P showed greater algal growth than in the control of nitrate-treatments, indicating a phosphorus deficiency on the phytoplankton growth in the system. The water from the Geum River had 5 times higher total phosphorus (TP) than the water in the reservoir. Efficient management is required as pumping of the river water from Geum River may accelerate the eutrophication of the reservoir.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is one of the most important processes for enabling sub-14 nm semiconductor manufacturing. Moreover, post-CMP defect control is a key process parameter for the purpose of yield enhancement and device reliability. Due to the complexity of device with sub-14 nm node structure, CMP-induced defects need to be fixed in the CMP in-situ cleaning module instead of during post ex-situ wet cleaning. Therefore, post-CMP in-situ cleaning optimization and cleaning efficiency improvement play a pivotal role in post-CMP defect control. CMP in-situ cleaning module normally consists of megasonic and brush scrubber processes. And there has been an increasing effort for the optimization of cleaning chemistry and brush scrubber cleaning in the CMP cleaning module. Although there have been many studies conducted on improving particle removal efficiency by brush cleaning, these studies do not consider the effects of brush contamination. Depending on the process condition and brush condition, brush cross contamination effects significantly influence post-CMP cleaning defects. This study investigates brush cross contamination effects in the CMP in-situ cleaning module by conducting experiments using 300mm tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) blanket wafers. This study also explores brush pre-treatment in the CMP tool and proposes recipe effects, and critical process parameters for optimized CMP in-situ cleaning process through experimental results.

Technical investigation to figure out the problems arising during in-situ heating electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis inside scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was carried out. EBSD patterns were successfully acquired up to $830^{\circ}C$ without degradation of EBSD pattern quality in steels. Several technical problems such as image drift and surface microstructure pinning were taking place during in-situ experiments. Image drift problem was successfully prevented in constant current supplying mode. It was revealed that the surface pinning problem was resulted from the $TiO_2$ oxide particle formation during heating inside SEM chamber. Surface pinning phenomenon was fairly reduced by additional platinum and carbon multi-layer coating before in-situ heating experiment, furthermore was perfectly prevented by improvement of vacuum level of SEM chamber via leakage control. Plane view in-situ observation provides better understanding on the overall feature of recrystallization phenomena and cross sectional in-situ observation provides clearer understanding on the recrystallization mechanism.

기능성 소재연구에서 in situ 분석 기법은 외부 자극 (전기장, 자기장, 빛, 등) 또는 주변 환경 (온도, 습도, 압력, 등)과 같이 주어진 자극에 의해 소재의 물리적 특성이 어떻게 활성화/진화되는지 분석하는데 있어서 매우 중요하다. 특히, 전기장 인가에 따른 in situ X-선 회절(XRD) 실험은 다양한 강유전체, 압전체, 전왜 재료의 외부 전기장 인가에 따른 전기-기계적 반응의 기본 원리를 이해하기 위해 광범위하게 활용되었다. 본 튜토리얼 논문에서는 일반 실험실 규모의 XRD 장비를 이용하여 전기장 인가에 따른 in situ XRD 분석의 기본 원리/핵심 개념을 간략하게 소개한다. In situ XRD 측정법은 외부 전기장을 인가하여 구동되는 다양한 전기-기계 재료의 구조적 변형을 체계적으로 식별/모니터링하는 데 매우 유용할 것으로 기대한다.

Soil nailing technique is being widely used for stabilization of vertical cuts because of its economic, environment friendly and speedy construction. Global stability and lateral displacement are the two important stability criteria for the soil nail walls. The primary objective of the present study is to evaluate soil nail wall stability criteria under the influence of in-situ soil variability. Finite element based numerical experiments are performed in accordance with the methodology of $2^3$ factorial design of experiments. Based on the analysis of the observations from numerical experiments, two regression models are developed, and used for reliability analyses of global stability and lateral displacement of the soil nail wall. A 10 m high prototype soil nail wall is considered for better understanding and to highlight the practical implications of the present study. Based on the study, lateral displacements beyond 0.10% of vertical wall height and variability of in-situ soil parameters are found to be critical from the stability criteria considerations of the soil nail wall.
