Grading of aggregate influences significantly almost all of the concrete performances. The purpose of this paper is to propose practicable equations that express the optimized total aggregate gradation, by weight or by number of particles in a concrete mix. The principle is based on the fractal feature of the grading of combined aggregate in a solid skeleton of concrete. Therefore, equations are derived based on the so-called fractal dimension of the grain size distribution of aggregates. Obtained model was then applied in such a way a correlation between some properties of the dry concrete mix and the fractal dimension of the aggregate gradation has been built. This demonstrates that the parameter fractal dimension is an efficacious tool to establish a unified model to study the solid phase of concrete in order to design aggregate gradation to meet certain requirements or even to predict some characteristics of the dry concrete mixture.

This paper presents a study on the selection of optimal mix proportions for producing lightweight pre-foam concrete as a substitute for Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete (ALC) without the accelerated curing. The study was conducted using a rapid hardening binder made from by-products of the steel industry as the primary raw material. The experimental results established the optimal mix proportions, which included retarder content, water/binder ratio, foam content, and fiber inclusion amount, for the production of lightweight foam concrete. The optimal mix proportion was determined to have a retarder content at the minimum amount required to secure the working time, W/B of 35%, a foam content limited to 65% or less, and a fiber inclusion amount of 0.05% or less.

본 연구에서는 매스콘크리트의 수화열 저감 및 초기강도 향상을 목적으로 3성분계 배합에 따른 콘크리트의 기초적 특성을 분석하였는데 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 굳지 않은 콘크리트의 물성은 목표범위를 모두 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 응결시간은 W/B와 관계없이 저열 시멘트 배합이 가장 빠른 것으로 나타났고, 간이 수화열은 저열 배합의 피크 온도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났고, 저발열-B 배합이 가장 낮은 온도를 나타내었으며, 조강형 저발열 배합은 저발열-B와 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 경화 콘크리트의 압축강도는 초기재령에서 저발열-B 배합을 제외한 모든 배합이 유사한 강도 범위를 나타내었고, 장기 재령에서는 큰 차이 없이 유사한 강도 범위를 나타내었다.

본 연구는 가축분의 퇴비화에 일반적으로 첨가되는 왕겨를 수준별(0(CRH0구), 10(CRH10구), 20(CRH20구), 30(CRH30구) 및 40%(CRH40구))로 우분과 혼합한 다음 부숙기간별 이화학적 변화를 측정하고 이를 바탕으로 생존율을 조사하여 가축분의 효율적인 vermicomposting의 기초자료로 이용하고자 실시하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 부숙이 경과함에 따라 3주부터 모든구에서 지렁이의 생존이 가능하였다. 처리구별 탄질비는 왕겨 혼합구가 CRH0구 보다 유의하게 높게 나타났으며, 왕겨 혼합구에서도 왕겨 수준을 30~40%를 혼합한 구(CRH30, CRH40)가 부숙기간 중 가장 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 지렁이가 생존하기 시작한 3주째의 탄질비는 23.26~34.44로 나타났다. 부숙이 경과함에 따라 pH와 전기전도도는 CRH0구에서 가장 높았고(p<0.05), 왕겨 혼합 비율이 높을수록 pH와 전기전도도는 낮은 경향이었다. 지렁이가 생존하기 시작한 pH와 전기전도도는 각각 7.58~7.74와 0.41~1.17 mS/cm으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 우분에 왕겨를 수준별로 혼합하여 부숙 시켰을 경우 이화학적 성상 변화는 모두 지렁이 생존이 가능한 범위로 나타났으나, 우분의 효율적인 지렁이 퇴비화를 위해서는 왕겨 혼합 비율에 따른 지렁이의 생육과 증식 조사를 위한 시험이 필요하다고 사료되어 진다.

The effect of acetylcholine, oxytocin and prostaglandin $F_{2{\alpha}}$ ($PGF_{2{\alpha}}$) on cyclic nucleotide levels in estrogen-primed rabbit whole uterus were studied in the presence and absence of 1-methyl-3-isobutyl xanthine (MIX), a phosphodiestrase inhibitor, and indomethacin, a prostagandin inhibitor. In the absence of MIX, acetylcholine increased guanosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP), but had no effect on adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels. In contrast, oxytocin had no influence on cGMP, but decreased cAMP levels. $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ increased cGMP and decreased cAMP levels. MIX increased both cAMP and cGMP levels. Oxytocin and $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ further increased cGMP levels, indicating activation of guanylate cyclase activity. The ratio of cAMP/cGMP was decreased by uterine stinulants both in presence and absence of MIX. Indomethacin elevated cAMP and cGMP revels. The effects of uterine stimulants in the presence of indomethacin on cyclic nucleotide levels were varied from tissue to tisse. In general, oxytocin decreased cGMP and $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ increased cAMP/cGMP levels, but the effects were statisically nonsignicficant. The cAMP/cGMP ratio was increased by uterine stimulant in the presence of indomethacin. In conclusion, uterine stimulants eased cAMP/cGMP ratio which indicates that the uterine stimulants have opposing effects on adenylate cyclase and guanylate cyclase activities. The endometrium plays a role in the regulation of cyclic nucleotide levels and uterine contraction by means of PG synthesis. Indomethacin has an unknown activities besides both of PG synthetase and phosphodiesterase inhibitions.

PURPOSES : The main distress of asphalt pavements in monsoon climate regions are caused by water damage and plastic deformation due to repeated rain season and increased heavy vehicle traffic volume. In this study, the mechanical properties of polymer-modified warm mix asphalt (PWMA) materials are evaluated to use in monsoon climate regions such as Indonesia. METHODS : Comprehensive laboratory tests are conducted to evaluate moisture resistance and permanent deformation resistance for three different asphalt mixtures such as the Indonesian conventional hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixture, the polymer-modified asphalt mixture, and the polymer-modified warm mix asphalt (PWMA) mixture. Dynamic immersion test and indirect tensile strength ratio test are performed to evaluate moisture resistance. The wheel tracking test is performed to evaluate rutting resistance. Additionally, the Hamburg wheel tracking test is performed to evaluate rutting and moisture resistances simultaneously. RESULTS :The dynamic immersion test results indicate that the PWMA mixture shows the highest resistance to moisture. The indirect tensile strength ratio test indicates that TSR values of PWMA mixture, Indonesian PMA mixture, and Indonesian HMA mixture show 87.2%, 84.1%, and 67.9%, respectively. The wheel tracking test results indicate that the PWMA mixture is found to be more resistant to plastic deformation than the Indonesian PMA. The dynamic stability values are 2,739 times/mm and 3,150 times/mm, respectively. Moreover, the Hamburg wheel tracking test results indicate that PWMA mixture is more resistant to plastic deformation than Indonesian PMA and HMA mixtures. CONCLUSIONS :Based on limited laboratory test results, it is concluded that rutting resistance and moisture susceptibility of the PWMA mixture is superior to Indonesian HMA and Indonesian PMA mixtures. It is postulated that PWMA mixture would be suitable for climate and traffic conditions in Indonesia.
