본 연구에서는 디지털 이미지를 사용하여 DIC(Digital Image Correlation) 기법 및 부착파괴면 분석을 통해 부착파괴에너지와 부착강도의 정량적 분석뿐만 아니라 계면의 부착 면 파괴 양상의 정성적 접근을 통해 지속 하중과 온도의 복합 하중에 대한 FRP 부착 실험체의 거동을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 CFRP 쉬트를 부착한 일면전단실험체를 제작하여 사용하였다. 일면전단실험체의 지속 하중 기간의 거동은 에폭시 크리프의 영향을 상당히 받으며 지속 하중 기간 동안에 에폭시의 점탄성 특징으로 인해 응력완화가 발생하였다. 응력완화는 지속 하중 이후 실시한 계면전단실험에서 사용한 DIC 기법을 통해 관찰 하였으며 지속하중 기간 동안의 응력완화로 인해 지속하중 실험체의 최대부착파괴하중 및 계면파괴에너지가 대조실험체보다 증가하였다. 모든 실험체의 부착 파괴 면을 디지털 이미지화하여 파괴 면의 양상을 정성적/정량적으로 분석 하였다. 디지털 이미지 분석 결과 지속 하중 기간 동안 파괴 형태가 콘크리트면내파괴에서 계면부착파괴 형태로 전이가 발생하였으며 이러한 전이로 인해 지속하중 기간이 증가할수록 지속하중의 최대부착파괴하중에 대한 긍정적인 효과 감소하였다.

A rational and simple analytical model to predict the time varying cracking moment of reinforced concrete sections under sustained loading is developed. The modeling procedure is based on equilibrium and compatibility requirements and takes into account the interdependent effects of creep and shrinkage as well as the presence of axial loading. A parametric study is conducted in which particular consideration is given to the effects of reinforcement ratio, level of loading, and creep and shrinkage characteristics of concrete. It is concluded that the reduction in cracking moment is mainly attributed to shrinkage. The effect of shrinkage is more pronounced at low levels of sustained loading and at high reinforcement ratios. This effect is lessened by the compression steel and creep particularly when the applied moment is near the cracking moment.

Despite a number of advantages of reinforced earth walls over conventional concrete retaining walls, there exit concerns over long-term residual deformation when used as part of permanent structures. In view of these concerns, time-dependant deformation characteristics of geosynthetic reinforced modular block walls under sustained loads were investigated using reduced-scale model tests. The results indicated that a sustained load can yield appreciable magnitude of residual deformation, and that the magnitude of residual deformation depends on the loading characteristic as well as reinforcement stiffness.

Spectrum analysis of surface electromyogram (FMG) signals is an effective approach to the study of localized muscular fatigue during isometric contraction. Many investigators have con firmed the frequency of the EMG signals being lowered during sustained contaction. In this study, the cyclic loading tasks were performed, and a comparison was made for the median power frequency shift pattern of the EMG signals with the sustained contraction of the same load. The median power frequency shift of the EMG signals for the cyclic loading task was found to be a part of that for the sustained contraction. Based on this result, a new muscle fatigue index was computed by normalizing the duration of the sustained contraction. A fatigue index was obtained as a function of exertion level and the work/rest schedule. With the proposed fatigue index, it is possible to evaluate or predict the degree of muscular fatigue for a physically demanding task.

The strengthening and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures with externally bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates has shown excellent performance and, as a result, this technology is rapidly replacing steel plate bonding techniques. This paper addresses this issue, and presents results deals with the influence of external bonded CFRP-reinforcement on the time-dependent behavior of reinforced concrete beams. A total of eight reinforced concrete beams with cracked and un-cracked section, with and without externally bonded CFRP laminates, were investigated for their creep and shrinkage behavior. All the beams considered in this paper were simply supported and subjected to a uniform sustained loading for the period of six months. The main parameters of this study are two types of sustained load and different degrees of strengthening scheme for both cracked and un-cracked sections of beams. Both analytical and experimental work has been carried out on strengthened beams to investigate the cracking and deflection performance. The applied sustained load was 56% and 38% of the ultimate static capacities of the un-strengthened beams for cracked and un-cracked section respectively. The analytical values based on effective modulus method (EMM) are compared to the experimental results and it is found that the analytical values are in general give conservative estimates of the experimental results. It was concluded that the attachment of CFRP composite laminates has a positive influence on the long term performance of strengthened beams.

Caffeine is a thermogenic agent that can be used in weight loss products. In order to achieve a sustained release of caffeine, silk fibroin (SF) film was uses as carrier. It has been shown that the loading method of caffeine into SF film affected the uniform distribution of caffeine in the SF film. When caffeine was added directly into SF solution, gelation has been occurred immediately and prevented the uniform distribution of caffeine. On the other hand, caffeine was dissolved in methanol in order to load the caffeine in SF film and crystallize the SF film at the same time. However, due to the fast evaporation of methanol, caffeine was recrystallized on the surface of SF film rather than penetrating into the film. Finally, caffeine was loaded into pre-crystallized SF film and uniform distribution of caffeine could be achieved. There was an initial burst of caffeine during the first 15 min, but after that a sustained release was achieved.

보강토 옹벽이 콘크리트 옹벽에 비해 다양한 이점을 가짐에도 불구하고 영구구조물로서 지속하중이 작용하는 경우에 대해 장기변형이 발생할 소지가 있다는 우려가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 관점에서 축소모형실험을 실시하여 수집된 보강토 옹벽의 장기변형 메카니즘에 대한 내용을 다루었다. 실험결과 지속하중이 작용하는 경우에 있어 장기적으로 잔류변형이 발생할 우려가 있는 것으로 나타났으며 이는 지속하중의 특성과 보강재 강성에 따라 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다.

Biodegradable microspheres were prepared with poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA, 75 : 25 by mole ratio) by an oil/oil solvent evaporation method for the sustained release of anti-AIDS virus agent, AZT The microspheres of relatively narrow size distribution (7.6$\pm$ 3.8 ㎛) were obtained by controlling the fabrication conditions. The shape of microspheres prepared was smooth and spherical. The efficiency of AZT loading into the PLGA microsphere was over 93% compared to that below 15% for microspheres by a conventional water/oil/water method. The effects of Preparation conditions on the morphology and in vitro AZT release pattern were investigated. in vitro release studies showed that different release pattern and release rates could be achieved by simply modifying factors in the fabrication conditions such as the type and amount of surfactant, initial amount of loaded drug, the temperature of solvent evaporation, and so on. PLCA microspheres prepared by 5% of initial drug loading, 1.0% (w/w) of surfactant concentration, and 25$\^{C}$ of solvent evaporation temperature were free from initial burst effect and a near-zero order sustained release was observed. Possible mechanisms of the near-zero order sustained release for our system have been proposed.

본 연구에서는 외부프리스트레스 탄소섬유판에 의한 보강기술에서 긴장력을 포함하는 지속하중이 작용하였을 때의 장기거동을 평가하기 위한 실험연구를 수행하였다. 지속하중 도입을 위한 실험계획은 탄소섬유판에 직접 인장력을 도입하는 직접 지속하중 방식과 휨 실험체를 통한 휨 지속하중으로 구분하여 실시하였다. 직접 지속하중에 의한 실험은 탄소섬유판의 종류별로 약 700일에 걸쳐 실시하여 탄소섬유판의 장기 크리프/릴렉세이션 등의 변형을 주로 평가하였으며, 휨 지속하중 실험에서는 탄소섬유판의 정착시 정착장치에서의 슬립량을 주로 평가하기 위해 약 90일 간으로 수행되었다. 일방향 탄소섬유판에 대한 2년간의 지속하중 실험 결과에 의하면, 탄소섬유판의 크리프나 릴렉세이션과 같은 재료자체의 변형 및 정착장치에서의 슬립에 기인한 응력손실은 적은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 강판매입형 탄소섬유판은 강판의 항복변형률을 초과하여 도입된 긴장력으로 인하여 재료 자체의 변형에 의한 자체 응력손실이 발생되었으므로 이에 대한 보완이 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 아울러, 탄소섬유판의 정착과정에 발생되는 긴장력의 즉시 손실량은 응력도입 초기의 약 10% 정도이므로 프리스트레스의 도입시에는 이를 고려하여 긴장력을 결정할 필요성이 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The present research investigated the interaction among loading level, corrosion rate and flexural deflection of reinforced concrete beams. 10cm$\times$15cm$\times$110cm reinforced concrete beams were prepared and subjected to different levels of flexural loading, including 0%, 45% and 75% of the ultimate load. The beams with either a pre-load or a sustained load were also exposed to a laboratory environment with ponding and wetting/drying cycling at room temperature. Half cell potential and galvanized current measurements were taken to monitor corrosion process of reinforcing steel. After corrosion initiation, external current was applied to some of the beams to accelerate corrosion propagation. The beam deflections were recorded during the entire tests. The results indicate that loading level has significant effect on corrosion rate. The beams under a sustained load had much higher corrosion rate than the pre-loaded and then unloaded beams. Significant corrosion may result in an increase in beam deflection and affect serviceability of the structure. The present research may provide an insight into structural condition evaluation and service life predictions of reinforced concrete.
