In highly stressed conditions, the excavation damage zone induced by stress redistribution and disturbance must be evaluated after tunnel excavation. Therefore, the investigation of stress-induced deformation and fracture in rock is indispensable. In this study, fracture and damage mechanisms of rock induced by the accumulation of microcracks were investigated by the moving point regression technique as well as acoustic emission measured during uniaxial compression tests. Especially, the modified procedures to determine damage thresholds more systematically were newly proposed, and successfully applied to rock. From experiments, crack initiation and track damage stress levels were estimated to be $33{\~}36\%$ and $84{\~}89\%$ of uniaxial compressive strength respectively, for both of Hwangdeung granite and Yeosan marble. However, the normalized crack closure stress level for Yeosan marble was much higher than for Hwangdeung granite. In addition, the largest proportion of total axial strain in Hwangdeung granite was attributable to elastic deformation and initial microcracking. However, the greatest part of axial deformation in Yeosan marble arose from initial crack closure and unstable cracking. Finally, it was seen that unstable cracking after the crack damage stress level played a key part in the lateral deformation in rocks under uniaxial compression.

Maintaining structural integrity of major apparatuses in a nuclear power plant, including piping system, is recognized as a critical safety issue. The integrity of piping system is also a critical matter related to the safety of a nuclear power plant. The actual failure mode of a piping system due to a seismic load is the leakage due to a fatigue crack, and the structural damage mechanism is the low-cycle fatigue due to large relative displacement that may cause plastic deformation. In this study, in-plane cyclic loading tests were conducted under various constant amplitudes using specimens composed of steel straight pipes and a steel pipe tee in the piping system of a nuclear power plant. The loading amplitude was increased to consider the relative displacement generated in the piping system under seismic loads, and the test was conducted until leakage, which is the limit state of the steel pipe tee, occurred due to fatigue cracks. The limit state of the steel pipe tee was expressed using a damage model based on the damage index that used the force-displacement relationship. As a result, it was confirmed that the limit state of the steel pipe tee can be quantitatively expressed using the damage index.

As computers and Internet become popular, many corporations and countries are using information protection system and security network to protect their informations and resources in internet. But the Intrusional possibilities are increases in open network environments such as the Internet. Even though many security systems were developed, the implementation of these systems are mostly application level not kernel level. Also many file protection systems were developed, but they aren't used widely because of their inconvenience in usage. In this paper, we implement a kernel module to support a file protection function using Loadable Kernel Module (LKM) on Linux. When a system is damaged due to intrusion, the file system are easily recovered through periodical file system image backup.

The impact damage behavior of steel-strengthened concrete panels exposed to explosive loading is investigated. Since real explosion experiments require the vast costs to facilities as well as the blast and impact damage mechanisms are too complicated, numerical analysis has lately become a subject of special attention. However, for engineering problems involving blast wave and fragment impact, there is no single numerical method that is appropriate to the various problems. In order to evaluate the retrofit performance of a steel-strengthened concrete panel subject to blast wave and fragment impact loading, an explicit analysis program, AUTODYN is used in this work. The multi-solver coupling methods such as Euler-Lagrange and SPH-Lagrange coupling method in order to improve efficiency and accuracy of numerical analysis is implemented. The simplified and idealized two dimensional and axisymmetric models are used in order to obtain a reasonable computation running time. As a result of the analysis, concrete panels subject to either blast wave or fragment impact loading without the steel plate are shown the scabbing and perforation. The perforation can be prevented by concrete panels reinforced with steel plate. The numerical results show good agreement with the results of the experiments.

The Sebyeonggwan Hall (National Treasure No. 305) is located on the Naval Headquarter of Three Provinces in Tongyeong, and it has partly undergone with several rebuilding, remodeling, repairing and restorations since it's the first establishment in Joseon Dynasty (AD 1605) of ancient Korea. This study focuses on 50 foundation stones that comprise the Sebyeonggwan. These stones are made of six rock types and currently have various shapes of the surface damages. As the foundation stones, the dominant rock type was dacitic lapilli tuffs, and provenance-based interpretation was performed to supply alternative stones for conservation. Most of the provenance rocks for foundation stones showed highly homogeneity with their corresponding stones of petrography, mineralogy and magnetic susceptibility. According to surface deterioration assessments, the most serious damages of the stones were blistering and scaling. The deterioration mechanism was identified through the analysis of inorganic contaminants, and the primary reason is considered salt weathering caused by sea breeze and other combined circumstances. Based on the mechanical durability of the stones, there was no foundation stone that required the replacement of its members attributed to the degradation of the rock properties, but conservation treatment is considered necessary to delay superficial damage. The foundation stones are characterized by a combined outcome of multiple petrological factors that caused physical damage to surfaces and internal defects. Therefore, it's required to diagnosis and monitoring the Sebyeonggwan regularly for long-term preservation.

Interfacial properties and damage sensing for the carbon fiber/epoxy-amine terminated (AT)-polyetherimide (PEI) composite were performed using microdroplet test and electrical resistance measurements. As AT-PEI content increased, the fracture toughness of epoxy-AT-PEI matrix increased, and interfacial shear strength (IFSS) increased due to the improved fracture toughness by energy absorption mechanisms of AT-PEI phase. The microdroplet in the carbon fiber/neat epoxy composite showed brittle microfailure mode. At 15 phr AT-PEI content ductile microfailure mode appeared because of improved fracture toughness. After curing, the change in electrical resistance $\Delta\textrm{R}$) with increasing AT-PEI content increased gradually because of thermal shrinkage. Under cyclic stress, in the neat epoxy case the reaching time until same stress was faster and their slope was higher than those of 15 phr AT-PEI. The result obtained from electrical resistance measurements under curing process and reversible stress/strain was correspondence well with matrix toughness properties.

반도체 생산의 주요 공정 중 하나인 세정 공정은 공정 중 발생하는 여러 가지 부산물에 의한오염을 효과적으로 제거하여 수율 향상에 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재 주로 쓰이는 세정 공정은 습식 세정 공정으로 화학 약품을 이용하지만 패턴 손상 및 웨이퍼 대구경화에 따른 문제 등이 대두되어 이를 대체할 세정 공정의 도입이 요구되고 있다. 이에 따라 건식 세정에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있으며 에어로졸 세정이 대표적 공정으로 개발 되었으나 마이크로 단위의 발생 에어로졸 입경으로 인해 패턴 손상 문제를 해결하지 못하였다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 응축에 의해 형성되는 입자 크기를 줄이는 것에 관한 연구가 진행되어 왔고, 대응 방안으로 개발된 것이 가스 클러스터 세정이다. 가스 클러스터란 작동 기체의 분자가 수십, 수백 개 뭉쳐있는 형태 (cluster)를 뜻하며 이 때 형성된 클러스터는 수 nm 크기를 가진다. 그리고 짧은 시간의 응축에 의해 수십 nm 크기까지 성장하게 된다. 즉, 입자로 성장할 수 있는 시간과 환경을 형성하지 않음으로써 작은 크기의 클러스터에 의해 패턴 사이의 오염물질을 물리적으로 제거하고 다시 기체상 물질로 환원되어 부산물을 남기지 않는 공정이다. 이러한 작동 환경을 조성하기 위해서는 진공도와 노즐 출구 속도에 대한 설계 단계부터의 이론적 연구를 통한 입자 크기 예측과 세정 조건에 따라서 발생하는 클러스터의 크기 분포 특성을 측정하는 것이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실시간 저압 환경에서의 측정이 가능하며, 다양한 크기의 입자를 실시간으로 측정할 수 있는 particle beam mass spectrometer (PBMS)를 이용하여 세정 공정 중 발생하는 클러스터의 크기 분포를 측정하는 연구를 수행하였다. 클러스터의 측정은 노즐에 유입되는 유량과 냉매 온도를 변수로 하여 수행하였다. 각각의 조건에 따라서 최빈값은 오차범위 내에서 일정한 것을 확인하였으며, 50 nm 이하의 값으로 가스 클러스터 공정이 패턴 손상 없이 오염입자를 제거할 수 있음을 실험적으로 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 유량의 증가에 따라 세정에 사용되는 클러스터의 입경이 증가하며, 냉매 온도가 낮아질수록 클러스터 입경이 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 클러스터 크기는 오염 입자와의 충돌에 의해 작용하는 힘으로 오염입자를 제거하는 메커니즘을 사용하는 가스 클러스터 세정 장치에 있어 중요성이 크다 할 수 있으며 추후 지속적 연구에 의한 세정 기술의 최적화가 기대된다.

ISFET (ion sensitive field effect transistor)는 용액 중의 각종 이온 농도를 측정하는 반도체 이온 센서이다. ISFET는 작은 소자 크기, 견고한 구조, 즉각적인 반응속도, 기존의 CMOS공정과 호환이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. ISFET의 기본 구조는 기존의 MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor)에서 고안되었으며, ISFET는 기존의 MOSFET의 게이트 전극 부분이 기준전극과 전해질로 대체되어진 구조를 가지고 있다. ISFET소자의 pH 감지 메커니즘은 감지막의 표면에서 pH용액 속의 이온들이 감지막의 표면에서 속박되어 막의 표면전위의 변화를 유발하는 것을 이용한다. 그 결과, ISFET의 문턱전압의 변화를 일으키게 되고 드레인 전류의 양 또한 달라지게 된다. ISFET의 높은 pH감지능력을 얻기 위하여 높은 high-k물질 들이 감지막으로서 연구되었다. Al2O3와 HfO2는 높은 유전상수, non-ideal 효과에 대한 immunity 그리고 높은 pH 감지능력 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있는 물질로 알려졌다. 본 연구에서는, SiO2/HfO2/Al2O3 (OHA) 적층막을 이용한 EIS (electrolyte- insulator-silicon) pH센서를 제작하였다. EIS구조는 ISFET로의 적용이 용이하며 ISFET보다 제작 방법과 소자 구조가 간단하다는 장점이 있다. HfO2은 22~25의 높은 유전상수를 가지며 높은 pH 감지능력으로 인하여 감지막으로서 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있는 물질이다. 하지만 HfO2의 물질이 가진 고유의 특성상 화학적 용액에 대한 non-ideal 효과는 다른 금속계열 산화막에 비하여 취약한 모습을 보인다. 반면에 Al2O3의 유전상수는 HfO2보다 작지만 화학용액으로 인한 손상에 대하여 강한 immunity가 있는 재료이다. 이러한 물질들의 성질을 고려하여 OHA의 새로운 감지막의 적층구조를 생각하였다. 먼저 Si과 high-k물질의 양호한 계면상태를 이루기 위하여 5 nm의 얇은 SiO2막을 완충막으로서 성장시켰다. 다음으로 높은 유전상수를 가지고 있는 8 nm의 HfO2을 증착시킴으로서 소자의 물리적 손상에 대한 안정성을 향상시켰다. 최종적으로 화학용액과 직접적인 접촉이 되는 부분은 non-ideal 효과에 강한 Al2O3을 적층하여 소자의 화학적 손상에 문제점을 개선시켰다. 결론적으로 감지막의 적층 모델링을 통하여 각각의 high-k 물질이 가진 고유의 특성에 대한 한계점을 극복함으로써 높은 pH 감지능력뿐만 아니라 신뢰성 있는 pH 센서가 제작 되었다.

The occurrence of ground subsidence and sinkhole in downtown areas, which threatens the safety of citizens, has been frequently reported. Among the various mechanisms of a sinkhole, soil erosion through the damaged part of the sewer pipe was found to be the main cause in Seoul. In this study, a random forest model for predicting the occurrence of sinkholes caused by damaged sewer pipes based on sewage pipe information was trained using the information on the sewage pipe and the locations of the sinkhole occurrence case in Seoul. The random forest model showed excellent performance in the prediction of sinkhole occurrence after the optimization of its hyperparameters. In addition, it was confirmed that the sewage pipe length, elevation above sea level, slope, depth of landfill, and the risk of ground subsidence were affected in the order of sewage pipe information used as input variables. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for the preparation of a sinkhole susceptibility map and the establishment of an underground cavity exploration plan and a sewage pipe maintenance plan.

Malware files containing concealed malicious scripts have recently been identified within MS Office documents frequently. In response, this paper describes the design and implementation of a system that automatically detects malicious digital files using machine learning techniques. The system is proficient in identifying malicious scripts within MS Office files that exploit the OLE VBA macro functionality, detecting malicious scripts embedded within the CDH/LFH/ECDR internal field values through OOXML structure analysis, and recognizing abnormal CDH/LFH information introduced within the OOXML structure, which is not conventionally referenced. Furthermore, this paper presents a mechanism for utilizing the VirusTotal malicious script detection feature to autonomously determine instances of malicious tampering within MS Office files. This leads to the design and implementation of a machine learning-based integrated software. Experimental results confirm the software's capacity to autonomously assess MS Office file's integrity and provide enhanced detection performance for arbitrary MS Office files when employing the optimal machine learning model.
