Vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides) is being effectively used in many countries to protect embankment and slopes for their characteristics of having long and strong roots. In this paper, in-situ shear tests of the ground with the vetiver roots have been conducted to investigate the stabilization properties corresponding to the embankment slopes. Numerical analyses have also been performed with the finite element method using elastoplastic subloading $t_{ij}$ model, which can simulate typical soil behavior. It is revealed from field tests that the shear strength of vetiver rooted soil matrix is higher than that of the unreinforced soil. The reinforced soil with vetiver root also shows ductile behavior. The numerical analyses capture well the results of the in-situ shear tests. Effectiveness of vetiver root in geotechnical structures-strip foundation and embankment slope has been evaluated by finite element analyses. It is found that the reinforcement with vetiver root enhances the bearing capacities of the grounds and stabilizes the embankment slopes.

The objective of this work is to evaluate the hypothesis that a good technique for supplying oxygen to the saturated zone in the presence of light nonaqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) pool contamination at the water table is to pass air through the unsaturated zone above the pool. This hypothesis was evaluated in experimental studies performed using a bench-scale, sand-tank reactor, Steady-state abiotic experiments in the sand-tank reactor with air flowing through the reactor headspace demonstrated that oxygen supply through the water table interface into the saturated zone was enhanced when an LNAPL (dodecane) pool was present at the water table. These experimental results confirmed the hypothesis that an LNAPL pool can serve as a high concentration oxygen source to the oxygen-limited area beneath the pool and, as a result, enhance the in situ biodegradation rate.

The characteristics of flow and particle collection for an electrocyclone with a central wire inside a high efficiency Stairmand cyclone was numerically analysed. Turbulent flow field was modeled by the Reynolds stress model and solved with an FVM code FLUENT. Particle motion and in-situ charging were simultaneously solved by a Lagrangian integration with time. The flow field obtained was in good agreement with experiments in the outer region. The characteristics of collection enhancement due to electric force were well manifested and well explained based on first principles. The effect of the in-situ charging process was very similar to the case of a simplified assumption of saturated charging, and the effect of the hopper was proved negligible.

In this study, in-situ performance test of an air source heat pump which has a arted capacity of 10 RT is carried out. Since test conditions, such as indoor and outdoor air conditions cannot be controlled to satisfy the standard test conditions, experiments are done with the inlet air conditions as they exist. To estimate the performance for other conditions, he heat pump is modeled with a small number of selected parameters. The values of the parameters are determined from the few measurements measured on-site during normal operation. A simulation program is developed to calculate cooling capacity and power consumption t any other operating conditions. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experiment. This study provides a method of an on-site performance diagnosis of an air source heat pump.

This paper presents results from experiments on laser-annealed SiGe-selective epitaxial growth (LA-SiGe-SEG). The SiGe-SEG technology is attractive for devices that require a low band gap and high mobility. However, it is difficult to make such devices because the SiGe and the highly doped region in the SiGe layer limit the thermal budget. This results in leakage and transient enhanced diffusion. To solve these problems, we grew in situ doped SiGe SEG film and annealed it on an XMR5121 high power XeCl excimer laser system. We successfully demonstrated this LA-SiGe-SEG technique with highly doped Ge and an ultra shallow junction on p-type Si (100). Analyzing the doping profiles of phosphorus, Ge compositions, surface morphology, and electric characteristics, we confirmed that the LA-SiGe-SEG technology is suitable for fabricating high-speed, low-power devices.

본 연구에서는 용매열합성법(solvothermal method)을 이용해 나노기공 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조하였다. In-situ 용매열합성법을 이용하는 경우, 매크로 기공의 알루미나 지지체 위에 균일하고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 층을 형성하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 용매열합성 전에 알루미나 지지체의 표면을 가열한 상태에서 용매열합성의 전구체 용액을 분무하므로 연속적이고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조할 수 있었다. 합성된 HKUST-1 분리막은 XRD, FE-SEM 및 단일 기체투과 실험 등을 통해 분석하였다.

A persulfate(PS)/sulfidated microscale zero-valent iron(S-mZVI) system was tested for treating a soil contaminated with phenol. Sulfidation of bare mZVI was conducted using a mechanochemical process utilizing a ball mill in order to improve persulfate activation capacity and stability of unmodified mZVI. The synthesized S-mZVI performed markedly better than the bare mZVI in activating PS. The optimum molar ratio of sulfur to mZVI was around 0.12. In the soil slurry experiments, a very rapid and complete removal of phenol was observed at the optimum molar ratios of PS to S-mZVI of 2:1 and PS to phenol of 16:1. The phenol removal efficiencies decreased as the water content of the slurries decreased. This was believed to be due to increased soil oxidant demand as the amount of soil was increased as relative to the water content. To evaluate the field applicability of the process, slurry experiments adopting high soil contents were carried out that simulated in-situ soil mixing conditions. These experiments resulted in substantially compromised degradation efficiencies of 54.3% and 43.8% within 4 hours. The current study generally shows that the PS/S-mZVI process has a potential to be developed into a remediation technology for soils contaminated with organics.

A significant fraction of nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus released from sediment are utilized by primary production in the shallow water of coast and lake. The purpose of this study is to introduce the mechanism of nutrients release from sediment and to introduce the methods of the measurement of nutrient released from sediment. One approach is to calculate nutrients released from sediment by a concentration gradient between sediment pore waters and overlying water based on the Fick's law. The other approaches of measurement are the undisturbed sediment core experiments and measurement of nutrient released from sediment by the in situ chamber equipment.

In this study, in-situ performance test of a wet surface finned-tube evaporator of an air source heat pump which has a rating capacity of 20 RT is carried out. Since test conditions, such as indoor and outdoor air conditions cannot be controlled to satisfy the standard test conditions, experiments are done with the inlet air conditions as they exist. From the experimental data, air side heat and mass transfer coefficients were calculated by the well known heat and mass transfer analogy and tube-by-tube method. Since current procedure underpredicted the experimental sensible heat factor (SHF), a proper empirical parameter was introduced to predict the experimental data with satisfactory results. This study provides the method of evaluating the heat and mass transfer coefficients of a wet surface finned-tube evaporator of which in-situ performance test is necessary.

알바이트 분말시료, 박편시료, TEM 시편용 시료를 이용하여 광학현미경 상에서 등온가열 실험을 수행하였다. 시료의 방향성은 광학현미경 및 XRD를 통하여 점검하였으며 TEM의 전자회절도형을 통해 확인하였다. 분말시료의 경우 $1030^{\circ}C$-12 hr에서, TEM 시편용 시료는 $1060^{\circ}C$-6 hr에서 부분 용융이 일어나며 이 이상의 온도에서는 용융으로 인한 시편두께 증가 및 비정질상으로의 변화로 인하여 알바이트 미세구조의 TEM 영상 획득이 어려웠다. 광학현미경과 TEM의 연계를 통한 알바이트 등온가열 실험 결과 알바이트 tweed 미세구조의 TEM 영상을 얻을 수 있는 최적 조건은 대기압 하에서는 $1050^{\circ}C$-12 hr로 파악되었다. 전자현미경 내 직접가열(in situ TEM heating) 실험의 경우 상기한 실험조건에 비해 고진공 상태임을 고려하면 $1050^{\circ}C$보다 다소 높은 온도에서 알바이트 tweed 미세구조를 직접 관찰할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다
