X-ray fluorescence analysis has been widely used in the field of science and industry because it gives information about elements and their concentrations without destruction of samples. To increase analysis accuracy of fluorescence generated by photons of the transmission-type X-ray tube for mixture and compound samples would be recommend to have strong energy near 10 keV and 20 keV simultaneously. Tungsten of 9.65 keV and molybdenum of 17.48 keV were considered as targets with dual deposition structure for obtaining two strong characteristic X-rays, and the transmission-type X-ray tube was analyzed using Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation. The W-Mo structure resulted in strong characteristic X-ray near 10 keV and 20 keV simultaneously. A structure with Mo-W multilayers of 5 ㎛ thick also gave optimal spectrum. Various material combination and thickness optimization for the dual-structured target can give X-ray spectrum with strong characteristic X-ray of specific energies.

In reliability based design(RBD) method, the distribution characteristics of mechanical properties of material are basic input variable. Therefore, distribution type and parameters of mechanical properties should be determined accurately. Until now, the properties were derived from tests with small, clear specimens. However, the test conditions should emulate as nearly as possible the way in which the timber would be used in practice and the test results should, as closely as possible, reflect the structural end use conditions to which the timber products would be subjected. In this study, structural timbers (38mm by 140mm, 3.0m long) were graded by visual assessment of growth characteristics and defects. And then bending tests were conducted on 498 structural size timbers. For each grade, the distribution type and the parameters of mechanical properties were determined for each grade. For the determination of best-fit distribution type, comparing of square error between distribution types and KS test were conducted. Best-fit distribution type of bending strength(MOR) is weibull distribution for all grade. In case of MOE, normal distribution is best-fit.

To evaluate the fiber orientation characteristics and estimate its effect on the flexural strength of steel fiber reinforced ultra high strength concrete with directions of concrete placing, we developed an image processing technique and carried out the flexural test to quantify the effect of fiber orientation characteristics on the flexural strength as well. The image processing technique developed in this study could evaluate quantitatively the fiber orientation property by the use of dispersion coefficient, the number of fibers in a unit area, and fiber orientation. It was also found that the fiber orientation characteristics were dependent on the direction of concrete placing. Fiber orientation characteristic was revealed to strongly affect the ultimate flexural strength, while hardly affecting the first cracking strength. Theoretical model for flexural strength was applied to compare with test results, which exhibited a good agreement.

본 논문에서는 유전자 알고리즘에 SOM 알고리즘을 적용하여 효율적으로 경로를 탐색할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 경로 탐색 방법은 효율적인 경로 탐색에 앞서 유전자 알고리즘에 의해 도출된 각각의 결과 좌표를 뉴런으로 설정하고 각 뉴런들의 모든 거리 값을 SOM 알고리즘에 적용하여 거리에 대한 가중치를 구한다. 뉴런 선택 조건(가장 적은 거리 가중치, 이전에 선택되지 않았던 뉴런)을 만족하는 뉴런 및 해당 뉴런의 이웃 반경 내에 존재하는 뉴런들의 연결 강도를 가우시안 분포(오차율 분포)에 적용하여 변경하고, 가장 강한 연결 강도를 가지는 승자 뉴런에 해당하는 경로를 선택한다. 이러한 과정을 뉴런의 개수만큼 반복하여 모든 뉴런들의 경로를 도출한다. 제안된 방법을 실험한 결과, 기존의 유전자 알고리즘을 이용한 방법보다 제안된 방법이 효율적인 경로를 탐색하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

쇠고기에서 마블링 및 살코기의 분포량은 육질 판별에 있어서 중요한 척도 중의 하나이다. 쇠고기의 분광학적 스펙트럼 및 영상 처리에 의한 쇠고기의 마블링의 분포를 측정 하였다. 쇠고기 Sample (a), (b), (c)의 광학적 측정에 의한 광의 강도 변화를 측정하였으며, 약 730nm대역에서 마블링 및 근육의 분포 변화에 따라, 광 강도의 변화를 갖는 것을 볼 수 있다. 분광법에 의해서 측정한 결과 값을 영상처리에 의한 마블링의 양을 비교하여 분광법에 의한 쇠고기의 마블링 분포량을 나타내었다.

열화수신포에 있어서 확률론적 신뢰도설계 및 단순스트레스와 강도의 고장모형은 렌덤 수치들로 구성된 각 분포의 간섭(Interference) 확률에 의해 이루어진다. 현재까지 이러한 분포모형들의 신경도는 분석적, 수치적 또는 모의실험방법론학에 의해서 단일추정치를 계산및 해석하여 왔으나 현실적으로는 스트레스 강도함수 분포의 간섭구간에 있어서 그 렌덤 변수들에 대한 완전한 실제의 분포들을 파악하기란 너무 복잡하고 때로는 불가능하다. 이를 위해서는 신뢰도의 상·하한 결정으로 신뢰도설계를 하는 방법이 고려된다. 본 연구에서는 스트레스와 강도의 렌덤 변수들에 대한 중복부분(Overlapping tails) 내에 있어서 각각의 주어진 구간확률을 제약조건으로 하여 최적신뢰도 한계를 결정 및 설계하는 새로운 기법을 제시한다. 설계신뢰도의 최적상한 및 하한 값은 제공하기 위하여 비선형모형인 Quadratic programming optimization 기법을 이용하여 신뢰도분석관점에 입각한 특수구조모형을 설정하고 이에 대한 수치예를 들어 예증하였다.

In this study, residual-stress distributions in welds with different strength used in natural gas pipelines are calculated by using finite-element analysis and simulating a realistic welding process. The temperature and residual-stress analysis results are compared with the real fusion profile and the application results of the Fitness-For-Service assessment code, API 579 in order to validate the finite-element analysis model and procedure. Parametric study is performed to assess the effect of welding and material variables such as mechanical strength mismatch, the strength of weld metal, reinforcement, and heat input on the residual stress distributions. Finally, on the basis of the parametric study results, the effects of these variables on residual stress distributions are investigated. In particular, the strength mismatch between base metals has an insignificant effect on residual-stress distributions.

Recently, to improve the load carrying capacity of column structures such as bridge piers, application to concrete-filled steel tube(CFT) type columns are increased more and more. To design the concrete-filled steel tube(CFT) columns in accuracy, influence of material and geometry properties and aspect ratio on ultimate strength of the concrete-filled steel tube column is investigated by experimental researches. In this investigation, the ultimate strength distribution of the concrete-filled steel tube column in accordance with diameter-thickness ratio(D/t) and steel-concrete area ratio(As/Ac) are clarified by the compressive tests. Futhermore, parametric experimental investigation on concrete target strength is performed. It was known from experimental observation that ultimate strength of concrete-filled steel tube column under axial compressive loading more depends on section properties of steel tube rather than concrete strength.

본 연구에서는 대기압 교류방전시 비열플라즈마를 이용하였을 때 NO입자의 분광스펙트럼과 전극재질과 전극두께에 따른 신호강도를 측정하였다. 분광기를 이용하여 측정된 NO입자의 분광스펙트럼 분포를 바탕으로 측정된 파장대역 중에서 비교적 신호강도가 큰 파장대역인 226[nm], 236[nm], 247[nm], 259[nm]에서 전극의 재질을 스테인레스, 구리, 알루미늄으로 변화시켰을 때의 신호강도와 전극의 두께를 4[mm], 5[mm], 6[mm]로 변화시켰을 때의 신호강도를 분광기(Monochromator)를 이용하여 측정하였다. 또한, 측정대상 중 전극재질은 구리일때가 가장 신호강도가 높음을 확인할 수 있었으며 전극두께는 갭 간격이 작을수록 신호강도가 강한 것을 확인함으로써 NO입자의 방전 메카니즘을 보다 명확하게 규명하고 또한 방전 리액터 제작에도 좋은 자료를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study presents an evaluation of basic properties of light weight mortar with expanded polystyrene bead(EPB) and waste expanded polystyrene(WEP) by varying replacement rations. In order to evaluate the basic properties of the light weight mortar with EPB and WEP, unit weight, compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption ratio, thermal conductivity and distribution of polystyrene (EPB and WEP) in hardened mortar were performed. As a result, unit volume, compressive strength, bending strength, water absorption and thermal conductivity of light weight mortar were increased, but area distribution of polystyrene decreased with increasing the replacement ratio of WEP.
