For effective bi-static sonar operation, detection performance analysis must be performed reflecting the characteristics of sound propagation due to the ocean environment and target information. However, previous studies analyzing bistatic sonar detection performance have either not considered the ocean environment and target characteristics or have been conducted using simplified approaches. Therefore, in this study, we compared and analyzed the bistatic detection performance in Yellow sea and Ulleung basin both with and without considering target characteristics. A numerical analysis model was used to derive an accurate bistatic target strength for the submarine-shaped target, and signal excess was calculated by reflecting the simulated target strength. As a result, significant changes in detection performance were observed depending on the source and receiver locations as well as the target strength.

This paper presents the appropriateness for using high strength reinforcement according to the use of high strength concrete. Nine flexural tests were conducted on full-scale beam specimens according to the concrete strength, reinforcement strength and reinforcement ratio as main variable. The structural behavior was analyzed due to the flexural strength, stress-strain curve, deflections at yielding and fracture point, crack appearance and ductility factor. The member with high-strength reinforcements showed large deflection at yielding point and this was analyzed as a main cause to decrease the ductility factor. Structural behavior after yielding point, however, showed similarity to behavior of members with normal strength reinforcements of same stiffness. It was found that in the case of using reinforcements of $5500kgf/cm^2$ strength, the combination with concrete of $800kgf/cm^2$ strength demonstrated the great appropriateness which can increase the flexural capacity without any reduction of maximum reinforcement ratio.

In this study, flexural strength properties of concrete under biaxial stress state were experimentally investigated. Tests for size effect and fatigue behaviour of concrete under biaxial stress were carried out by the ASTM C 1550 and the biaxial flexure test(BFT). The results given by the biaxial tests were compared to those by the third-point bending test. Test results showed that biaxial flexural strengths obtained from the ASTM C 1550 and the biaxial flexure test are greater than the strength by the third-point bending test. As the size increases, the uniaxial and biaxial flexural strength decreases. However, the slope of the size effect of the biaxial strength was greater than that of the uniaxial strength. Finally, the fatigue response of concrete under the biaxial stress state was similar with that for uniaxial stress state.

This study was carried out to assess the suitability in terms of the standards of material quality of basalt aggregates from JEJU Island as a source for concrete aggregate. Quality assessments on the basalt aggregates were performed to assess the soundness of coarse aggregates using sodium sulfate solution, aggregate crushing test, and Los Angeles abrasion test. In addition, XRD, XRF, porosity, and compressive and tensile strength tests were performed to analyze the chemical components and the mechanical properties. In general, the mechanical properties of basalt aggregates from some areas did not meet the Korea Standards (KS), but the levels of compressive and tensile strength were higher than those of granite, andesite, and sandstone of other regions.

본 연구에서 AFDA(Approximate Full Distribution Approach)를 사용하여 하수관의 성능불능확률(Probability of capacity failure)을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있는 신뢰성 모형이 개발되었다. 전국 여러 도시의 연 최대강우강도(Yearly Maximum Rainfall Intensity)를 이용하여 그 확률분포함수를 규명하였고 우수관(Storm sewer)의 성능불능확률 산정을 위한 신뢰성모형에 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 우수관의 성능불능확률을 산정하여 신뢰성 해석을 수행하였다. 먼저 적용도시의 강우자료를 면밀히 분석하고 연 최대강우강도의 통계적 특성을 분석하여 신뢰함수를 구축하였으며 우수관의 성능불능확률 산정을 위한 신뢰성 모형이 개발되었다. 그리고 우수관에 적체되는 토사의 깊이에 따라 우수관의 용량을 산정하였다. 재현기간별 강우강도를 사용하여 청주와 춘천의 원형우수관의 성능불능확률을 산정한 결과, 재현기간의 증가에 따란 성능불능확률을 급하게 상승하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 5년, 10년, 20년 재현기간에 따른 연 최대강우강도를 사용하여 청주와 춘천의 우수관의 성능불능확률을 산정하였다. 또한 토사의 적체에 따른 우수관 유효면적의 변화를 고려하여 두 도시의 우수관의 성능불능확률을 산정하였다. 원형 우수관의 성능불능확률을 산정한 결과, 토사의 적체에 따라 우수관의 용량은 감소하여 성능불능확률이 크게 증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 우수관의 용량 감소를 막고 성능불능확률을 최소화하기 위해 우수관에 적체된 토사의 양을 예측할 수 있는 연구가 필요하며 적체된 토사와 콘크리트나 강관벽면이 복합된 우수관에 대한 조도계수를 보다 더 정확히 정량화 할 수 있는 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.

Kidney diseases rates in modern Korean society, which is entering an aging society, are growing. These diseases diagnosed at early stage can be cured with the drug or dietary treatment. If, however, at worsening stage, kidney dialysis or transplant is needed. In this context, we analyzed the relationship between kidney and voice by measuring and analyzing the changing rate of the vocal chord and intensity according to hemodialysis. For this, we collected voice samples before and after hemodialysis, and compared and analyzed them through application of vocal analytical element. Namely, based on oriental medical diagnosis theory that voice is quieted down when kidney is abnormal, we collected voice samples before and after hemodialysis, and applied trembling and intensity analysis of vocal chord.

As a fundamental study to introduce the reliability-based design code, a statistical study is conducted for the material strength data collected from domestic construction sites. In order to develop a rational design code based on statistics and reliability theory, it is essential to obtain the statistical properties of material strength. Material strength data for concrete, reinforcing bars, and prestressing strands which are used in domestic construction sites are collected and statistically analyzed. Then, the statistical properties are compared with those used in the process of the reliability-based calibration of internationally leading design codes. The statistical properties of the domestic data are such that the bias factor is relatively uniform between 1.13 and 1.20 and the coefficient of variation is below 0.10. Reinforcing bar data show difference among different manufacturers but there is not much difference among re-bar diameters. In the case of tendons, which are high strength materials, both of the domestic and foreign data show smaller values of the bias factor and the coefficient of variation than those of concrete and re-bar. Statistical distribution of all the material strength can be properly assumed as normal, log-normal, or Gumbel distribution after analyzing the classified data by individual construction site and manufacturer rather than the mixed data obtained from different sources in order to express the individual distribution of each structure.

This paper describes the mean grain size and shear strength properties related to subsidence characteristics using sediment samples and acoustic images obtained from artificial reef areas in Tongyoung and Jangsungpo offshore. The acoustic images collected from chirp sonar and side scan sonar show well the attitude/orientation, the distribution pattern, and the degree of subsidence of artificial reefs, suggesting the possibility of suitable site investigation and the management of the reefs using acoustic sonar. The sediments were largely composed of clayey silt and silty clay. The mean grain sizes in Tongyoung and Jangsungpo offshore show the ranges of 5${\sim}$9${\Phi}$ and 8${\sim}$9${\Phi}$, respectively. The shear strength was significantly increased at the depths of 20cm in Tongyoung offshore and 80cm in Jangsungpo offshore, corresponding to the subsidence depth of artificial reefs. The relationship between mean grain size and shear strength did not show a correlation, suggesting the shear strength does not totally depend on mean grain size. Provided subsidence characteristics with respect to various artificial reefs and seabed condition are investigated in more details, the constructing area of the reef can be more extended.

The effects of bar deformation properties on bond of steel reinforcing bars to concrete are experimentally studied to predict the bond strength. Based on the previous research about high relative rib area, bond strength between reinforcing bars and concrete can be improved by the control of rib height and spacing. But, the equations in Korean code provisions to estimate development and splice length do not include these specifications of reinforcing bars. So the purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of relative rib area to the bond strength. This paper describes 2 kinds of experimental researches. Thirty beam-end specimens were tested to investigate the effects of bar size and relative rib areas ranging from 0.112 to 0.162. And, twelve lap-splice beam specimens were tested to the same variables. Each test results are normalized and compared with the proposed equations of ACI 408 committee. The results show that bond strength is increased as bar size and the relative rib area(Rr) increase. The distribution of flexural cracks and failure aspect do not appear to be affected by $R_r$.
