최근 환경부에서는 낙동강 유역의 오염총량관리제도의 시행에 따라 이제까지의 배출구 수질기준으로부터 총량수질기준을 통한 수질관리를 실시하고 있다. 오염총량관리를 실행하기 위해서는 주요지천 및 폐수처리장에서의 수질개선 및 비점오염원 관리가 선행되어야 하는데 이를 효율적으로 제어하기 위해서 낙동강 유역에 적합한 최적 수질해석 모델의 개발이 요구되는 상황이다. 수질모델의 가장 큰 목적은 유역으로부터 발생한 오염물이 하천으로 유입되었을 때 하천 수질 및 생태계의 수학적 표현을 통해 장래의 수질을 예측하고, 예측된 결과에 따라 합리적인 수질관리대책을 수립하는 것이다. 낙동강은 대표적인 수지상 하천망의 형태로서 댐 방류량 및 지류유입량은 본류 수계에 직접적인 영향을 미치며, 수질해석의 기본이 되는 수리계산에 매우 중요한 변수가 된다. 또한 대구, 구미, 왜관, 김천 등에서의 오염부하가 금호강, 남강 등의 주요 지류를 통하여 본류부로 유입되고 있으며, 하류부 칠서, 원동, 매리, 물금 등에서는 대량의 하천수를 취수하여 부산, 울산, 마산, 창원 지역 등의 생활 및 공업용수의 원수로 사용하고 있다. 다시 말해서 댐 방류량, 낙동강 하구언의 수위조절, 지류 유입량, 비점원 유입량 등 계산영역 경계에서의 비정상상태의 수리조건과 수질관리 계획에 의해 일률적으로 오염이 부하되는 정상상태의 수질조건이 공존하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 유역에 적합한 동적 수질모델을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 수치모형은 갈수저수조건 및 불규칙한 하도단면을 반영하고, 동적 상태의 댐 방류량, 낙동강 하구언의 수위조절 영향, 지류 유입량 등 다양한 하천조건에서 발생하는 동적 흐름을 안정적으로 해석하여 낙동강 수질해석의 신뢰도를 향상시킴으로서 낙동강에 유입된 오염물질이 수계에 미치는 영향을 정확히 분석하고자 하였다. 동적수질해석에 의한 모의결과는 유량의 경우 상류부분은 모의치와 실측치가 잘 일치하지만, 중류 이후 지류의 유입이 많아지면서 지류의 변화를 정확히 입력하지 못해 모의치와 실측치의 차이가 발생한다. BOD의 경우는 수질이 양호한 상류지역은 모의치와 실측치가 잘 일치하지만, 오염원의 유입이 많은 중류지역부터는 실측치와 차이를 나타내다가 하류지역에서 다시 비교적 일치함을 알 수 있다. TN의 경우는 전반적으로 실측치보다 높게 모의되었고, TP는 전반적으로 실측치와 비교하여 잘 모의되었다. 본 연구에서 구축한 동적 수리해석모형 및 동적 수질해석모형은 낙동강 유역에 대해 유량 및 수질 등의 실제 하천의 경향에 비교적 잘 반영하므로 오염물총량규제에 따른 합리적인 하천 수질관리대책을 수립하는데 크게 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, the structural design optimization of a wafer grinding machine using a multi-step optimization with genetic algorithm is presented. The design problem, in this study, is to find out the optimum configuration and dimensions of structural members which minimize the static compliance, the dynamic compliance, and the weight of the machine structure simultaneously under several design constraints. The first design step is shape optimization, in which the best structural configuration is found by getting rid of structural members that have no contributions to the design objectives from the given initial design configuration. The second and third steps are sizing optimization. The second design step gives a set of good design solutions having higher fitness for lightweight and minimum static compliance. Finally the best solution, which has minimum dynamic compliance and weight, is extracted among those good solution set. The proposed design optimization method was successfully applied to the structural design optimization of a high precision wafer grinding machine. After optimization, both static and dynamic compliances are reduced more than $92\%\;and\;93\%$ compared with the initial design, which was designed empirically by experienced engineers. Moreover the weight of the optimized structure are also slightly reduced than before.

The main objective of this study is to develop an optimization algorithm of framed structures with rigid and various semi-rigid connections using the multilevel dynamic programming and the sequential unconstrained minimization techniques (SUMT). The second-order elastic analysis is performed for steel framed structures. The second order elastic analysis is developed based on nonlinear beam-column theory considering the bowing effect. The following semi-rigid connections are considered; double web angle, top-seat angle and top-seat angle with web angle. We considered the three connection models, such as modified exponential, polynomial and three parameter model. The total weight of the structural steel is used as the objective function in the optimization process. The dimensions of steel cross section are selected as the design variables. The design constraints consist of strength requirements for axial, shear and flexural resistance and serviceability requirements.

Wheel load, design velocity, traffic amount (MGT), stiffness and thickness of sub-layers of asphalt concrete track are selected as performance design parameters in this study. A pseudo-static wheel load computed considering the dynamic amplification factor (DAF) based on the design velocity of the KTX was applied to the top of asphalt concrete track for full three dimensional structural analysis using the ABAQUS program. Tensile strains at the bottom of the asphalt concrete layer and vertical strains at the top of the subgrade were computed from the structural FEA with different combinations of performance parameter values for one asphalt concrete track section. Utilizing the computed structural analysis results such as the tensile strains and the vertical strains, it was possible to develop design graphs to investigate proper track sections for different combination of the performance parameters including wheel load, design velocity, traffic amount(MGT), stiffness and thickness of asphalt concrete layers for any given design life. By analyzing the proposed design graphs for asphalt concrete track, it was possible to propose simple design tables that can be used by engineers for the effective and fast design of track.

Underground structures that have recently become larger are required to be stable not only during normal times but also during earthquakes. Especially, it is very important to maintain the stability of the subsea tunnels during the earthquake. The objective of this paper is to verify the effectiveness of the flexible segment, which is one of the breakthrough facilities to maintain the stability of the subsea tunnel during the earthquake using the shaking table test. Another goal of this paper is to propose the optimum position of the flexible segment through 3D dynamic numerical analysis based on the verified results from shaking table tests. The 1g shaking table test considering the similarity ratio (1:100) to the cross section of the selected artificial subsea tunnel was carried out considering the Geongju and Artificial seismic waves, longitudinal and lateral wave, and with/without flexible segments eight times or more. As a result of the shaking table test, it was confirmed that the flexible segment is effective in improving the seismic performance of the undersea tunnel in all the experimental results. In addition, 3D dynamic numerical analysis was performed to select the optimum position of the flexible segment which is effective for improving seismic performance. As a result, it was confirmed that the seismic acceleration is attenuated when the flexible segment is installed adjacent to the branch section in subsea tunnel.

Theoretical backgrounds on the experimental methods of explosive welding, explosive forming and shock consolidation of powders are introduced. Explosive welding experiments of titanium (Ti) and stainless steel (SUS 304) plate were carried out. It was revealed that a series of waves of metal jet are generated in the contact surface between both materials; and that the optimal collision velocity and collision angle is about 2,100~2,800 m/s and $15{\sim}20^{\circ}$, respectively. Also, explosive forming experiments of Al plate were performed and compared to a conventional press forming method. The results confirmed that the shock-loaded Al plate has a larger curvature deformation than those made using conventional press forming. For shock consolidation of powders, the propagation behaviors of a detonation wave and underwater shock wave generated by explosion of an explosive are investigated by means of numerical calculation. The results revealed that the generation and convergence of reflected waves occur at the wall and center position of water column, and also the peak pressure of the converged reflected waves was 20 GPa which exceeds the detonation pressure. As results from the consolidation experiments of metal/ceramic powders ($Fe_{11.2}La_2O_3Co_{0.7}Si_{1.1}$), shock-consolidated $Fe_{11.2}La_2O_3Co_{0.7}Si_{1.1}$ bulk without cracks was successfully obtained by adapting the suggested water container and strong bonding between powder particles was confirmed through microscopic observations.

Licorice, widely used as a herbal medicine, has flavonoids such as liquiritin and its aglycone, liquiritigenin that show anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Licorice flavonoid-loaded cellulose hydrogels were prepared as carriers for skin drug delivery, and their properties were investigated. The porous cellulose hydrogel was made by reacting cellulose with epichlorohydrin as a cross-linking agent in NaOH/urea(1~10%) solutions. Through studies on the rheological properties and water uptake of the hydrogel, a NaOH/urea(6%) solution was established as being optimum for the synthesis of the cellulose hydrogel containing liquiritin and liquiritigenin. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations of a cross-section of the prepared hydrogel indicated its porosity. In particular, in skin permeation experiments using a Franz diffusion cell, hydrogel containing the licorice flavonoids showed remarkable transdermal permeation compared to the control group. These results indicate that porous cellulose hydrogel is a potential drug delivery system to enhance the skin permeation of licorice flavonoids.
