The considerations for remaining life of ACSR (Aluminum Stranded Conductors Steel Reinforced) in transmission lines has become gradually important to hold reliability and stability of power supply. The remaining life of ACSR exposed to the atmosphere for a long period may rely on deterioration caused by environmental indices such as atmospheric corrosion, galvanic corrosion, crevice corrosion and fatigue corrosion. This paper deals with material characteristic of ACSR due to eccentricity at sleeve point. Test samples are ACSR 240[$mm^2$] conductors, which are real transmission lines. As a result, it is obvious that ACSR due to eccentricity may lead to mechanical deterioration.

Recently, as it has greatly increased the demand on the serviceability of subway, cable tunnel and underground storage, the stability of tunnel structures has been attracting the concern of engineers and researchers. Thus the aim of the present study is to evaluate acid attack resistance of shotcrete using in tunnel structures. And, in order to understand the deterioration mechanism, test using scanning electron microscopy(SEM) analysis and X-ray diffraction showed that the deterioration mechanism due to acid attack in shotcrete.

In this study, several sensor parts used to obtain better signal stability are designed, a separate control circuit for the sensor is developed, and the results obtained using this control circuit are analyzed. The capacitances of the whole sensor system are measured using the control circuit connected to an improved flexible printed circuit board and an asymmetric dual sensor coated with a ceramic material. To realize good discrimination for a small change in the measured capacitance as the engine oil deteriorates, a commercial application-specific integrated circuit is installed on the control circuit as a capacitance-to-digital converter. The absolute error of a measured signal is found to be approximately ${\pm}4fF$.

Numerical characteristics of implicit upwind schemes, such as upwind ADI, line Gauss-Seidel (LGS) and point Gauss-Seidel (LU) algorithms, for Navier-Stokes equations have been investigated. Time-derivative preconditioning method was applied for efficient convergence at low Mach/Reynolds number regime as well as at large grid aspect ratios. All the algorithms were expressed in approximate factorization form and von Neumann stability analysis was performed to identify stability characteristics of the above algorithms in the presence of high grid aspect ratios. Stability analysis showed that for high aspect ratio computations, the ADI and LGS algorithms showed efficient damping effect up to moderate aspect ratio if we adopt viscous preconditioning based on min-CFL/max-VNN time-step definition. The LU algorithm, on the other hand, showed serious deterioration in stability characteristics as the grid aspect ratio increases. Computations for several practical applications also verified these results.

Various deleterious chemicals can be introduced to existing concrete structures from various external sources. The deterioration of concrete by seawater attack is involved in complex processes due to various elements contained in seawater. In the present study, attention was paid to the formation of secondary minerals and characteristics of mineralogical and micro-structural changes involved in concrete deterioration caused by the influence of major seawater composition. The characteristics of deterioration occurred in existing concrete structures was carefully observed and samples were collected at many locations of coastal areas in Busan-Kyungnam. The petrographic, XRD, SEM/EDAX analyses were conducted to determine chemical, mineralogical and micro-structural changes in the aggregate and cement paste of samples. The experimental concrete deteriorations were performed using various chloride solutions (NaCl, CaCl, $MgCl_2$ and $Na_2SO_4$ solution. The experimental results were compared with the observation results in order to determine the effect of major elements in seawater on the deterioration. The alkalies in seawater appear to accelerate alkali-silica reaction (ASR). The gel formed by ASR is alkali-calcium-silica gel which known to cause severe expansion and cracking in concrete. Carbonation causes the formation of abundant less-cementitious calcite and weaken the cement paste. Progressive carbonation significantly affects on the composition and stability of some secondary minerals. Abundant gypsum generally occurs in concretes subjected to significant carbonation, but thaumasite ({$Ca_6/[Si(OH)_6]_2{\cdot}24H_2O$}${\cdot}[(SO_4)_2]{\cdot}[(CO_3))2]$) occurs as ettringite-thaumasite solid solution in concretes subjected to less significant carbonation. Experimentally, ettringite can be transformed to trichloroaluminate or decomposed by chloride ingress under controlled pH conditions. Mg ions in seawater cause cement paste deterioration by forming non-cementitious brucite and magnesium silicate hydrate (MSH).

The purpose of this study was to analyze the anthocyanin contents of black soybean crude extracts derived using a countercurrent system and to compare the effects of stabilizers(${\beta}-cyclodextrin$, maltodextrin) and sugars(sucrose, maltose) on the color deterioration of the anthocyanin. When the extraction process was kept at 100$^{\circ}C$ for 120$\sim$180 min, only C3G (cyanidin-3-glucoside) was detected in the water extract. The C3G contents in the water extracts acquired at 8$^{\circ}C$, 60$^{\circ}C$, and 80$^{\circ}C$ were 2.38 ppm, 1.73 ppm, and 1.73 ppm, respectively. Sucrose and maltose retarded color deterioration of the crude pigment extract by the countercurrent method with methanol. Finally, the additions of maltodextrin or ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ did not retard thermal color deterioration of the black soybean crude pigment extract.

In this study, we compared and analyzed the static and dynamic analysis method for agricultural reservoirs. In addition, we assumed the aging of reservoir as the deterioration of the internal friction angle and cohesion. The internal friction angle and cohesion were applied by dividing into 4 case for each reservoir. As a result of comparing the stability of the reservoir embankment, it was found that the dynamic stability analysis method showed a greater risk than the static stability analysis method when dynamic loads such as earthquakes were applied. Therefore, when detailed review such as liquefaction is required, it is considered that the dynamic stability analysis method should be applied first. If a study on the change in material properties due to the aging of the reservoir is conducted, the stability analysis of the reservoir due to the aging of the reservoir can be performed more accurately. In addition, if a study comparing the results of dynamic stability analysis and static stability analysis for earthquakes with various characteristics for more reservoirs is conducted, detailed criteria for the case where dynamic stability analysis should be considered can be presented.

A comprehensive study has been made for the investigation of the convergence and stability characteristics of the LU scheme for solving the Euler equations on unstructured meshes. The von Neumann stability analysis technique was initially applied to a scalar model equation, and then the analysis was extended to the Euler equations. The results indicated that the convergence rate is governed by a specific combination of flow parameters. Based on this insight, it was shown that the LU scheme does not suffer any convergence deterioration at all grid aspect ratios, as long as the local time step is defined using an appropriate parameter combination.

In this paper, stability and transparency analysis for client/server haptic-based networked virtual environment (NVE) is introduced. From this analysis the appropriate communication structure for the more stable and transparent haptic interactions can be derived. Also, it is possible to expect and compensate the quality deterioration of haptic interactions according to certain network conditions In order to verify the usefulness of the analysis, simple haptic-based NVE application is implemented. For the stability verification, the vibration or strange movement of haptic interface and virtual object are measured under various network states. In addition, the usefulness of the proposed transparency analysis and network delay compensation scheme is verified by comparing distorted and compensated force feedbacks with real force feedback.
