In recent years, Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) strengthening is found to be one of the best methods to strengthen steel structures. The fibrous bond can also influence the vibration characteristics of the strengthened element apart from its static strength enhancement property. The main objective of this study is to understand the influence of CFRP strengthening on the dynamic Behaviour of Thin-Webbed Castellated Beams (TWCBs). A detailed experimental investigation was carried out on five sets of beams with varying parameters such as domination of shear (Shear Dominant, Moment Dominant and Moment and Shear Dominant), sectional classification (Plastic and Semi-compact) and perforation geometries (h_o/d_wratio 0.65 and e/h_o ratio 0.3). Free vibration analysis was carried out by exciting the simply supported TWCBs with an impact force generated by a ball dropped from a specific height. Logarithmic decrement method was used to obtain the damping ratio and natural frequencies of vibration were found by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Natural frequency showed an increase in a range of 10.5 - 55% for the different sets of castellated beams. An increase of 62.30% was noted in the damping ratio of TWCBs after strengthening which is an indication of improvement in the vibration characteristics of the beam.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 대표적으로 버려지는 폐벌목 중 잣나무에서 만든 활성탄을 이용하여 벤젠에 대한 정지(static)흡착 실험을 수행하였다. 7.999 kPa에 이르는 압력 범위 내에서 온도 조건을 변화시켜 가며 303.15, 318.15, 333.15 K에서 흡착실험을 진행하였다. 등온흡착곡선은 Langmuir 등온흡착식, Freundlich 등온흡착식, Toth 등온흡착식을 적용하여 비교하였다. 벤젠의 흡착량(q)을 측정한 결과 Langmuir 등온흡착식과 Toth 등온흡착식으로 적용한 등온흡착곡선의 정확도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 Langmuir 등온흡착식의 $q_{max}$ 값을 이용하여 흡착제의 흡착량을 비교하였다. 또한, 폐벌목 활성탄과 상용활성탄의 세공 발달 여부를 비교하기 위해 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscopy, SEM) 사진을 관찰하였다. SEM 사진 관찰 결과, 폐벌목 활성탄이 국내 외 상용활성탄(DARCO A.C., SPG-100 A.C.)에 비해 세공발달 정도가 우수하며, 벤젠흡착량(q)이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 폐벌목 활성탄의 상용화 가능성을 검증할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 하수슬러지에서 만든 활성탄을 이용하여 벤젠에 대한 정지(static)흡착실험을 수행하였다. 7.999 kPa에 이르는 압력 범위 내에서 온도 조건을 변화시켜 가며 303.15, 318.15, 333.15 K에서 흡착실험을 진행하였다. 등온흡착곡선은 Langmuir isotherm, Freundlich isotherm, Toth isotherm을 적용하여 비교하였다. 벤젠의 흡착량(q)을 fitting한 결과 Langmuir isotherm과 Toth isotherm으로 fitting한 등온흡착 곡선의 정확도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 Langmuir isotherm의 $q_{max}$ 값을 이용하여 흡착제의 흡착량을 비교하였다. 또한, 하수슬러지 활성탄과 상용활성탄의 세공 발달 여부를 비교하기 위해 SEM image를 관찰하였다. SEM image 관찰 결과, 국내외 상용활성탄(DARCO A.C., SPG-100 A.C.)이 하수슬러지 활성탄에 비해 세공발달 정도가 우수하며, 세공발달 정도가 우수한 국내외 상용활성탄(DARCO A.C., SPG-100 A.C.)이 하수슬러지 활성탄에 비해 벤젠흡착량(q)이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 실온조건인 303.15K에서 하수슬러지의 최대 벤젠흡착량($q_{max}$)은 국내 상용활성탄(SPG-100 A.C.)의 최대 벤젠흡착량($q_{max}$)과 대등한 수치로 나타났으므로 하수슬러지 활성탄의 상용화 가능성을 검증할 수 있었다.

Inferior alveolar nerve dysfunction may be the result of trauma, disease, or iatrogenic injury. Inferior alveolar nerve injury is inherent risk in endodontic therapy, orthognathic surgery of the mandible, and extraction of mandibular teeth, particularly the third molars. The sensory disturbances of inferior alveolar nerve associated with such injury have been well documented clinical problem that is commonly evaluated by several clinical sensory test including Tinels sign, Von Frey test(static light touch detection), directional discrimination, two-point discrimination, pin pressure nociceptive discrimination, and thermal test. These methods used to detect and assess inferior alveolar nerve injury have been subjective in nature, relying on the cooperation of the patients. In addition, many of these techniques are sensitive to differences in the examiners experience and skill with the particular technique. Data obtained at different times or by different examiners are therefore difficult to compare. Prior experimental studies have used electro diagnostic methods(sensory evoked potential) to objectively evaluate inferior alveolar nerve after nerve injury. This study was designed with inferior alveolar nerve of rabbit. Several types of injury including mind, moderate, severe compression and perforation with 19 gauze, 21 gauze needle and 6mm, 10mm traction were applied for taking the sesory evoked ppterntial. Latency and amplitude of injury rabbit inferior alveolar nerve were investigated with sensory evoked potential using unpaired t-test. The results were as follows : 1. Intensity of threshold (T1) was $128{\pm}16{\mu}A$ : latency, $0.87{\pm}0.07$ microsecond : amplitude, $0.4{\pm}0.1{\mu}V$ : conduction velocity, 23.3 m/s in sensory evoked potential of uninjured rabbit inferior alveolar nerve. 2. Rabbit inferior alveolar nerve consists of type II and III sensory nerve fiber. 3. Latency was increased and amplitude was decreased in compression injury. The more injured, the more changed in latency and amplitude. 4. Findings in perforation injury was similar to compression injury. Waveform for sensory evoked potential improved by increasing postinjured time. 5. Increasing latency was prominent in traction injury rabbit inferior alveolar nerve. 6. In microscopic histopathological findings, significant degeneration and disorganization of the internal architecture were seen in nerve facicle of severe compression and 10mm traction group. From the above findings, electrophysiological assessment(sensory evoked potential) of rabbit injured inferior alveolar nerve is reliable technique in diagnosis and prognosis of nerve injury.

This manuscript tends to investigate influences of nanoscale and surface energy on a static bending and free vibration of piezoelectric perforated nanobeam structural element, for the first time. Nonlocal differential elasticity theory of Eringen is manipulated to depict the long-range atoms interactions, by imposing length scale parameter. Surface energy dominated in nanoscale structure, is included in the proposed model by using Gurtin-Murdoch model. The coupling effect between nonlocal elasticity and surface energy is included in the proposed model. Constitutive and governing equations of nonlocal-surface perforated Euler-Bernoulli nanobeam are derived by Hamilton's principle. The distribution of electric potential for the piezoelectric nanobeam model is assumed to vary as a combination of a cosine and linear variation, which satisfies the Maxwell's equation. The proposed model is solved numerically by using the finite-element method (FEM). The present model is validated by comparing the obtained results with previously published works. The detailed parametric study is presented to examine effects of the number of holes, perforation size, nonlocal parameter, surface energy, boundary conditions, and external electric voltage on the electro-mechanical behaviors of piezoelectric perforated nanobeams. It is found that the effect of surface stresses becomes more significant as the thickness decreases in the range of nanometers. The effect of number of holes becomes significant in the region 0.2 ≤ α ≤ 0.8. The current model can be used in design of perforated nano-electro-mechanical systems (PNEMS).

고속 비상체에 의한 충격을 받는 콘크리트는 그 충격력에 의해 관통, 표면관입 및 배면박리뿐만 아니라 균열의 확산에 의해 나타나는 국부적인 파괴 등 정하중을 받을 때와 다른 파괴거동을 보인다. 이러한 콘크리트의 파괴거동은 비상체의 재료적 특성, 충돌속도, 질량 및 기하학적 구조뿐만 아니라 콘크리트의 재료적 특성, 시험체의 크기 및 두께, 보강재료 및 방법 등 다양한 요인에 의해 영향을 받는다. 이 연구에서는 콘크리트 재료의 압축강도에 따른 표면관입깊이 및 배면박리성상에 대하여 평가하고, 섬유보강에 의한 배면박리억제효과에 대하여 검토하고자 하였다. 그 결과 압축강도의 증가로 인하여 표면관입깊이는 감소하였으며, 이 연구 범위의 결과는 수정 NDRC식 및 US ACE식과 유사한 경향을 나타냈다. 반면, 배면박리억제에 있어 압축강도 증가에 의한 영향은 확인할 수 없었으며, 섬유보강에 의한 인성의 향상을 통하여 배면박리를 억제할 수 있었다.
