An anodic electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique is used to create a uniform TiO₂ thin film coating on boiling thin steel plates (1.1 mm by 90 mm). All of the effective parameters except time of the EPD method are kept constant. To investigate the effect of gamma irradiation on the critical heat flux (CHF), the test specimens were irradiated in a gamma cell to different doses ranging from 100 to 300 kGy, and then SEM and BET analysis were performed. For each coated specimen, the contact angle and capillary length were measured. The specimens were then tested in a boiling pool for CHF and boiling heat transfer coefficient. It was observed that irradiation significantly decreases the maximum pore diameter while it increases the porosity, pore surface area and pore volume. These surface modifications due to gamma irradiation increased the CHF of the nano-coated surfaces compared to that of the unirradiated surfaces. The heat transfer coefficient (HTC) of the nano-coated surfaces irradiated at 300 kGy increased from 83 to 160 kW/(㎡ K) at 885 kW/㎡ wall heat flux by 100%. The CHF of the irradiated (300 kGy) and unirradiated surfaces are 2035 kW/㎡ and 1583 kW/㎡, respectively, an increase of nearly 31%.

본 연구는 콘크리트 보수재료로서의 MgO계 세라믹(Magnesia Phosphate Cement: MPC) 모르타르의 기초물성 평가를 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 응결시간, 압축강도, 부착강도를 측정하였으며 수화물의 측정을 위해 X-ray 회절분석을 실시하였다. 시편은 중질 마그네시아(dead burnt magnesia)를 바인더로 사용하였으며 활성제로 칼륨계 인산염을 사용하였고, 응결시간을 지연 시키기 위해 Borax를 지연제로 사용하였다. 또한, 이온침투저항성 평가를 위해 공극구조와 촉진염화물침투시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 MPC 모르타르의 응결시간은 M/P 비에 따라 16~21분 사이로 빠르게 경화하였으며 지연제인 Borax는 MPC의 응결시간을 68분까지 늦추는 데 도움이 되었다. MPC 모르타르의 압축 강도는 12시간 재령에서 M/P 비에 따라 11.0~30.0 MPa 범위로 발현되었고 특히 M/P 비가 4인 MPC의 압축 강도는 12시간 이내에 30 MPa 정도의 강도를 발현하였다. MPC의 인장 부착강도와 휨 부착강도는 OPC 모르타르에 비해 각각 19 MPa와 17 MPa로 더 높게 측정되었으며 MPC 모르타르의 총 공극량은 OPC 모르타르에 비해 적게 측정되었고 촉진염화물침투시험에서도 MPC 모르타르를 통과한 총 전하가 OPC 모르타르보다 적었으며 이는 공극량과 공극분포로 설명 할 수 있다.

해성토는 유기질등 부폐등으로 흔히 methane등을 생성하여 개스를 간극속에 함유하는 경우가 많다. 따라서 이 개스는흙의 포화를 방해하게 되고,외부에서 작용하는 압력에 따라흙의 반응이 다양하게 나타난다. 특히, 개스를 함유한 흙의 거동의 대표적인 차이에는 비배수상태에서 외력이 작용할 때의 반응에 관한 것이다. 본 연구는 비배수 및 배수상태하에서 개스를 함유한 흙의 압밀거동을 실험을 통해 관찰하고, 개스를 포함한 간극수의 변화는 총응력에 상관관계가 있음을 알았으며, 압밀 압력의 변화에 따른 개스기포를 감싸는 포화된 흙의 거동을 분석하였고, 비배수상태에서 반복하중이 작용하는 경우, gassy soil의 거동을 살펴보았다.

BTEX로 오염된 혼합토(사질토/점토)의 정화를 위한 계면활성제 기법의 적용성 및 제거효율에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 초기농도 275mg/kg으로부터 1975mg/kg의 BTEX로 오염시킨 8개의 컬럼에 물, methyl alcohol과 계면활성제 용액을 주입하였고 이때 계면활성제와 첨가물의 혼합과 비혼합시에 대해 제거거동을 비교 분석하였다. 물을 이용한 흙 세척법의 적용 결과 850 간극부피의 물을 주입하여 98%의 제거 효율을 보였으나 8mg/kg 이하의 저농도에서는 더 이상 제거가 이루어지지 않고 일정한 양상을 가지는 tailing effect를 보였다. 본 실험 결과 가장 우수한 조건은3% ethyl alcohol과 3% SXS를 첨가한 4% SOFTANOL(equation omitted)-90을 간헐적으로 주입한 경우였으며 이 때 95 간극부피에서 99.5%의 제거효율을 보였다. 실험결과 물을 주입하였을 경우 850 간극부피를 주입한 반면, 계면활성제 적용시 95-165 간극부피에서 84.5%-99.5%의 제거효율을 보였는데 이는 계면활성제 기법을 오염된 지반 정화에 효율적으로 적용할 수 있음을 나타내는 것이다.

Micropore filtration of dilute red blood cell (RBC) suspensions is a widely known method for determining red blood cell deformability. Use of this method for cells from various laboratory animal species does require considering the effects of the cell size to pore size ratio and of suspension hematocrit. In general, previous animal studies have utilized 5% hematocrit suspensions and five micron pores, and thus conditions similar to human clinical laboratory practice. However, when used for repeated sampling from small laboratory animals or for parallel multiple samples from different sites in large laboratory animals, the volume of blood sampled and hence the hematocrit of the test suspension may be limited. Our results indicate that hematocrit levels yielding stable values of RBC pore transit time are pore size and species specific: three micron pores = $2{\sim}5%$ for dog and $3{\sim}5%$ for rat; five micron pores $3{\sim}5%$ for dog and $1{\sim}5%$ for rat. An analytical approach using a common expression for calculating transit time is useful for determining the sensitivity of this time to hematocrit alterations and hence to indicate hematocrit levels that may be problematic.

In order to investigate stabilization effect on As-contaminated soils treated by zero-valent iron(ZVI) and industrial by-products, batch tests and column tests were carried out with As-contaminated soils collected from farmland around the abandoned mine site. In batch tests, ZVI and industrial by-products(blast furnace slag, steel refining slag and oyster shell powder) were used as treatment materials to reduce As. Industrial by-products were mixed with As-contaminated soils, in the ratio of 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% on the weight base of dried soil. After incubation, all samples showed the reduction of As concentration and it was expected that ZVI and steel refining slag were effective treatment materials to remove As among treatment materials used in batch test. In column tests, columns were made by acrylic with the dimension of diameter=10cm, height=100cm, thickness=1cm and these columns were filled with untreated soils and treated soils mixed with ZVI and steel refining slag(mixing ratio=3%). Distilled water was discharged into the columns with the velocity of 1 pore-volume/day. During test, pH, EC, Eh and As concentration were measured in the regular term(1 pore-volume). As a result, ZVI and steel refining slag were shown 93%, 62% reduction of As concentration respectively by comparison with untreated soils. Therefore, if ZVI and steel refining slag are used as treatment materials in As-contaminated soils, it is expected that the As concentration in soils is reduced effectively.

In order to investigate stabilization effect and sustainability on As-contaminated farmland soils which were affected the abandoned mine site and stabilized by zerovalent iron(ZVI) and industrial by-products, batch-scale and pilot-scale tests were carried out. In batch tests, ZVI and industrial by-products(blast furnace slag, steel refining slag and oyster shell powder) were used in treatment materials to reduce the As leaching. Industrial by-products were mixed with As-contaminated soils, in the ratio of 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% on the weight base of dried soil. The results of batch-scale tests was shown that the reduction of As concentration was observed in all samples and it was expected that ZVI and steel refining slag were more effective than other treatment materials to stabilize As compounds. In pilot-scale tests, columns were filled with untreated soils and treated soils mixed with ZVI and steel refining slag in the same mixing ratio of 3%. Distilled water was discharged into the columns with the velocity of 0.3 pore volume/day. During the test, pH, EC, Eh and As concentration were measured in the regular term(1pore volume). after six months, pilot-scale tests were retested to investigate sustainability of treatment materials. As a result, It was shown that the leachate from control column was continuously released during the test period and its concentration was greater than $100ug{\cdot}L^{-1}$ which was exceeded the national regulation of water discharged to river or stream ($50ug{\cdot}L^{-1}$). On the other hand, soil treated with ZVI and steel refining slag showed that the concentrations of leachate were lower than national regulation of water discharged to river or stream. Therefore it was expected that ZVI and steel refining slag could be applied to the farmland site as the alternative treatment materials.

There are two primary causes of the ground movement due to tunnelling in urban areas; firstly the lost ground and secondly the groundwater depression during construction. The groundwater depression was usually not considered as a cause of settlement in previous research works. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the combined effect of these two phenomena on the transverse settlement trough. Centrifuge model tests and numerical analysis were primarily selected as the methodology. The characteristics of settlement trough were analyzed by performing centrifuge model tests where acceleration reached up to 80g condition. Two different types of tunnel models of 180 mm diameter were prepared in order to match the prototype of a large tunnel of 14.4 m diameter. A volume loss model was made to simulate the excavation procedure at different volume loss and a drainage tunnel model was made to simulate the reduction in pore pressure distribution. Numerical analysis was performed using FLAC 2D program in order to analyze the effects of various groundwater depression values on the settlement trough. Unconfined fluid flow condition was selected to develop the phreatic surface and groundwater level on the surface. The settlement troughs obtained in the results were investigated according to the combined effect of excavation and groundwater depression. Subsequently, a new curve is suggested to consider elastic settlement in the modified Gaussian curve. The results show that the effects of groundwater depression are considerable as the settlement trough gets deeper and wider compared to the trough obtained only due to excavation. The relationships of maximum settlement and infection point with the reduced pore pressure at tunnel centerline are also suggested.

This paper presents an experimental study on the pore and penetration of chloride in seashore concrete depending on types of curing forms. Three types of concretes (Plain concrete, MSF concrete and FA concrete) with four different form types (wood, coating wood, steel and polypropylene film) were examined. The test results show that the air volume in concrete was relatively higher with steel and polypropylene forms than others, and wood form shows the least air volume. The penetration of chloride depending on type of form is showed a wide variability, that is, the values on plain concrete, MSF concrete and FA concrete are 115.2, 125.5 and 121.6 %, respectively. Based on the present study, concrete should be considered the conditions of curing form-type for durable concrete.

친환경 복합단열재를 개발하기 위하여 천연섬유질과 다공성 세라믹볼을 심재로, 활성황토를 결합재로 사용하였다. 물/결합재비 및 심재/결합재비를 다양하게 변화시켜 공시체를 제작하였으며, 공시체의 제 물성을 조사하기 위하여 압축강도, 휨강도, 흡수성, 내열수성, 세공분석, 열전도율 및 SEM에 의한 미세조직 관찰을 실시하였다. 그 결과 최대 압축강도는 물/결합재비와 심재/결합재비에 따라 다양하게 나타났으나 휨강도는 심재/결합재비가 증가될수록 물/결합재비에 관계없이 높게 나타났다. 내열수성시험 후에 측정한 압축 및 휨강도는 내열수성시험 전에 측정한 값에 비하여 압축 및 휨강도 모두 현저하게 저하되었다. 내열수성시험 후에 측정한 세공분석에서 결합재의 수화반응이 촉진됨으로서 세공의 평균직경, 총세공량 및 공극률은 감소되었으나 밀도는 증가되었다. 열전도율은 심재/결합재비가 증가될수록 낮아졌다. 복합단열재의 단열성과 기계적강도가 우수하여 실용화에 문제가 없는 것으로 평가되었다.
