방사성폐기물처분장 주변 암반의 수많은 불확실성을 이해하기 위해서는 무결암에서 발생하는 균열의 성장과 거동 분석은 필수이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 처분장과 유사한 지질적 구조적 특성을 지닌 한국원자력연구원 내에 위치한 지하처분연구시설에서 채취한 화강암 시료를 이용하여 균열의 성장과 이에 따른 손상도를 AE parameter와 모멘트텐서해석법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 시료의 균열개시 균열결합 균열손상응력은 최대강도의 0.45배, 0.73배, 0.84배인 것으로 나타났다. 모벤트텐서해석법을 이용한 결과 응력 초기에는 인장균열의 발달이 우세하였으나 응력 수준이 증가함에 따라 전단균열이 발달하였다. 또한 시료에 균열손상응력 이상의 응력이 가해지면 파괴면을 중심으로 불안정한 전단균열이 발생하였으며 이는 파괴에 직접적인 역할을 하는 것으로 해석되었다.

PURPOSE. The influence of the modified process in the fiber-reinforced post and resin core foundation treatment on the fracture resistance and failure pattern of premolar was tested in this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Thirty-six human mandibular premolars were divided into 4 groups (n = 9). In group DCT, the quartz fibre post (D.T. Light-post) was cemented with resin cement (DUO-LINK) and a core foundation was formed with composite resin (LIGHT-CORE). In group DMO and DMT, resin cement (DUO-LINK) was used for post (D.T. Lightpost) cementation and core foundation; in group DMO, these procedures were performed simultaneously in one step, while DMT group was accomplished in separated two steps. In group LCT, the glass fiber post (LuxaPost) cementation and core foundation was accomplished with composite resin (LuxaCore-Dual) in separated procedures. Tooth were prepared with 2 mm ferrule and restored with nickel-chromium crowns. A static loading test was carried out and loads were applied to the buccal surface of the buccal cusp at a 45 degree inclination to the long axis of the tooth until failure occurred. The data were analyzed with MANOVA (${\alpha}$= .05). The failure pattern was observed and classified as either favorable (allowing repair) or unfavorable (not allowing repair). RESULTS. The mean fracture strength was highest in group DCT followed in descending order by groups DMO, DMT, and LCT. However, there were no significant differences in fracture strength between the groups. A higher prevalence of favorable fractures was detected in group DMT but there were no significant differences between the groups. CONCLUSION. The change of post or core foundation method does not appear to influence the fracture strength and failure patterns.

The effect of initial electrolyte loading (IEL) on cell performance in a coin-type molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) was investigated in this work. Since the material of MCFC depends on the manufacturer, optimisation requires experimental investigation. In total, four IEL values, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 g, were used, corresponding to a pore filling ratio (PFR) of 38, 51, 77, and 102%, respectively. The cell performance with respect to the PFR was analysed via steady-state polarisation, step-chronopotentiomtery, and impedance methods. The electrochemical analyses revealed that internal resistance and overpotential of the cell decreased with increasing PFR, and a large overpotential was observed when the PFR was 102%, probably due to the flooding phenomenon. After operation, cross-section of the cell was analysed via surface analysis of SEM and EDS methods, and the remaining electrolyte was estimated by dissolution of the cell in 10 wt% acetic acid. A linear relationship between IEL and the weight reduction ratio by dissolution was obtained. Thus, the remaining amount of electrolyte could be measured after operation. The results of SEM and EDS showed that a PFR of 38 and 102% showed a lack and flooding of electrolytes at the cell, respectively, which led to a large overpotential. This work reports that MCFC performance is allowed only in the narrow range of PFR.

A flange joint is a pipe connection used to prevent the leakage of high-pressure fluids by inserting a gasket and tightening the bolts. Among several kinds of gaskets available, metal ring type joint gaskets are most widely used in conditions that require high-temperature and high-pressure fluid flow, such as oil pipelines, gas pipes, pumps, valve joints, etc. The purpose of this study is to investigate the contact pressure and stress characteristics closely related to the sealing performance of Class 900 flange joints used in high temperature and high pressure environments. The dimensions of flange joints with five different nominal pipe sizes were determined with reference to those specified in ASME 16.5. The metal ring gaskets inserted in the joints were octagonal and oval gaskets. The bolt tensile forces calculated from the tightening torques were input as the bolt pretension loads in order to determine the contact pressure and stress levels after fastening. Loading was composed of three steps, including the fastening step, and different amounts of applied pressures were used in each analysis to investigate the effect of fluid pressure on the contact force of the joints. A general-purpose software, ANSYS 17.2, was used for the analysis.

고무재료는 배합조건에 따라 기계적 거동이 다르기 때문에 피로수명평가를 위해 부품소재에 대한 물성데이터 확보가 선행되어야 한다. 그러나 모든 종류의 배합조건을 고려하여 표준화된 재료물성을 확보하는 것은 현실적으로 불가능하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최소한의 제한된 실험으로부터 피로수명평가를 위한 입력물성을 선택하기 위한 방법을 제시하였으며, 피로수명 평가를 위한 최적 피로손상 파라미터를 결정하였다. 이러한 결과를 활용하여 부품의 피로수명 평가결과와 내구시험결과를 비교한 후, 본 연구에서 제안된 피로수명 평가절차의 타당성을 검토하였다.

The motion response of floating structures is of significant concern in marine engineering. Floating structures can be disturbed by waves, winds, and currents that create undesirable motions of the vessel, therefore causing challenges to its operation. For a floating structure, mooring lines are provided in order to maintain its position; these should also produce a restoring force when the vessel is displaced. Therefore, it is important to investigate the tension of mooring lines and the motion responses of a twin barge when moored to guarantee the safety of the barge during its operation. It is essential to precisely identify the characteristics of the motion responses of a moored barge under different loading conditions. In this study, the motion responses of a moored twin barge were measured in regular waves of seven different wave directions. The experiment was performed with regular waves with different wavelengths and wave directions in order to estimate the twin-barge motions and the tension of the mooring line. In addition, the motion components of roll, pitch, and heave are completely free. In contrast, the surge, sway, and yaw components are fixed. In the succeeding step, a time-domain analysis is carried out in order to obtain the responses of the structure when moored. As a result, the Response Amplitude Operator (RAO) motion value was estimated for different wave directions. The results of the experiment show that the motion components of the twin barge have a significant effect on the tension of the mooring lines.

In a pilot-scale dyeing wastewater treatment using two-type fluidizing media, each thickness of biofilm was 15 and 30 ${\mu}m$, respectively. The numbers of protozoa inhabited in small-size (PEMT A) and big-size (PEMT B) media were $7.5{\times}10^4$ and $1.25{\times}10^5$ cells/ml, respectively, and dominant species were Entosiphon sulcatus var sulcatus in PEMT A and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in PEMT B, respectively. Flask experiments using the two media revealed that the percentages of color removal were 25.8% in PEMT A and 27.1% in PEMT B after 72-h cultivation, indicating the necessity of bioaugmentation. Experiments for bioaugmentation effect on color removal were carried out in the pilot-scale treatment for 75 d by three-step operation under the control of wastewater loading rate and microbial input rate. Dye degradation occurred mainly in the second reaction tank, and the attachment of augmented dye-degrading microorganisms to media took at least 35 d. Final value of chromaticity in effluent was 227, meeting the required standard. Therefore bioaugmentation onto media was good for color treatment. In summary, thickness of biofilm formed on the media depended upon the size of media, resulting in different ecosystem inside the media. Hence, this affected microbial community and color treatment further. Accordingly, the reduction of operation cost is expected by efficient color-treatment process using bioaugmented media.

본 연구에서는 단열 전단 밴드의 특성 규명을 위하여 특별히 고안된 계단 형 상 시편(stepped specimen)의 수치해석을 통하여 단열 전단 밴드의 형성과 성장(init- iation and growth of adiabatic shear band)에 관한 체계적 해석을 시도해 보았다. 금번 논문에서는 우선 격자 크기(mesh size)와 충격 속도(impact velocity)가 단열 전 단 밴드의 형성 및 성장에 미치는 영향과 제반 특성을 규명할 계획이며 차후 재료의 기하학적 형상 등이 단열 전단 밴드의 형성 및 성장에 미치는 영향에 대해서도 단계적 연구를 시도할 계획이다. 해석을 위하여 가공경화효과, 변형률 속도 경화효과(stra- in rate hardening effect), 열적연화효과 등을 고려할 수 있는 구성 방정식(constit- utive equation)을 갖춘 엑스플리시트 시간적분 유한요소 코드(explicit time integr- ation finite element code)를 사용하였으며 기존의 연구 결과와는 달리 어떠한 인위 적 결함도 해석에 사용하지 않았다.
