Electron tomography를 이용한 3차원적 영상 시각화는 electron microscopy를 통해 하나의 실험 대상으로부터 연속된 이미지를 생산함으로써 이루어진다. 이미지 데이터 내부에는 대용량의 정보값을 포함하고 있어 3차원 구조물로의 변환이 가능하다. electron tomography 작업 과정 중 고해상도 원본 이미지에 pattern recognition 알고리즘이 적용된 필터링을 적용하면 실험에 필요한 데이터의 정보 손실을 최소화한 상태에서 electron tomography 시스템의 효율성을 높일 수 있다. 또한 tomographic econstruction이 진행되는 각 단계에 hanning windowing을 적용하면 불필요한 정보 값이나 노이즈 등을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있다. 윤곽선 데이터의 효과적 활용을 위하여 sobel 필터 처리를 할 경우 관찰하고자 하는 대상의 윤곽선 특징을 뚜렷하게 시각화 할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 데이터의 시각화 과정에서 실험의 신뢰성 확보를 위해 원본 이미지를 기반으로 하는 tomogram과 필터링을 적용한 tomogram을 비교하여 최종 결과물의 정확도를 높이고, electron tomography를 통한 결과물의 질적 향상을 유도할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, the effect of the natural aging on the strength distribution and structural service life of a Filament Wound (FW) composite pressure vessel was studied. The fiber failure strain, which is varied significantly, was considered as the design random variable and the strength analysis was carried out by probabilistic numerical approach. The progressive failure analysis technique and the First Order Reliability Method (FORM) were embedded in this numerical model. As the calculation results, the probability of failure was obtained for each aging time steps and it is found that the strength degradation in FW composite pressure vessel, due to the natural aging, appears within 10 year-aging-time. As an example of the life prediction under natural aging using arbitrary laminated model, the service lifetime of 13 years was predicted based on the probability of failure of 2.5% and the design pressure of 3,250 psi.

하천수의 통합적인 물관리를 위해서는 농업용수의 목적으로 취수되는 하천수량과 같은 기초자료의 확보가 필수적이다. 취입보를 통해 취수되는 하천수량은 취수문에 근접한 농업용수로에서 유량을 계측할 수 있는데, 계측지점의 특성에 맞는 최적의 계측방법 선정 및 검증이 필요하다. 대부분의 농업용수로는 단면이 일정하여 수위-유량 관계 곡선식, 초음파 측정법, 수면경사법, 구조물법 등 대부분의 계측방법 적용이 가능한데, 본 연구에서는 전자파 표면 유속계를 이용해 산정한 유량자료와 실측 유량자료와의 적합성을 비교하여 전자파로 측정한 유량자료의 정확도를 확인하였다. 전자파 표면 유속계는 도플러 효과를 이용해 표면 유속을 산정하는 방식으로, 주로 홍수기와 같이 고유량 상황에서 사용되고 있고, 저유량이나 바람이 센 상황에서는 표면유속이 단면 전체의 평균유속을 대변하기 어려워 연중 지속적인 활용도가 낮은 상황이다. 농업용수로는 다양한 규모로 설계되어 있어 저유량에서부터 고유량까지 넓은 범위의 계측방안이 필요한데, 전자파 표면 유속계를 이용한 계측으로는 연속적인 자료 확보에 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 일정한 단면에서 전자파 표면 유속계와 실측 유속과의 비교를 통해 적정 수준의 정확도를 가질 수 있는 전자파 표면 유속계 측정범위를 특정하고, 저유량 구간에서 취약한 표면 유속 측정 자료를 보정할 수 있는 개선 방법을 적용하여 농업용수를 취수하는 지점에서 전자파 표면 유속계의 연중 상시 계측 가능 방안에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 전자파 표면 유속계의 측정 범위 특정과 저유량 계측 개선 방안 등을 통해 추후 농업용수로의 하천수 취수량 계측 방법 선정에 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

Due to the increased size of civil infrastructure and the cost of materials, the needs exists for utilizing large sized cast-inplace piles in lieu of conventional precast piles. Among them, the barrette pile has become more commonly used in fields where a diaphragm wall is the retaining wall, to improve workability and economical efficiency, and to ensure hole stability under deep soil layers. In this paper, the bearing capacity and displacement characteristics of the barrette pile are evaluated by using the bi-directional loading test data obtained from four different sites. In addition, the design value of pile shaft resistance, ${\beta}$, is assessed with previous literatures and load transfer analysis. Finally, numerical analyses were performed to analyze the load-displacement behavior, and the interface effect on the piles, using the 3-dimensional finite element method.

In this study, steel deck bridges are chosen as analytic model to show the structural behaviors generated by high temperature of pavement and to formulate the simplified approximate analysis of thermal effects. In general, the thermal effect is changed by the material property of pavements and environmental temperature as well as shape, size and boundary conditions of bridge. Specially, this effect is the representative initial stress problem dependent on time. The thermal effect, however, does not depend on time and thermal effect is regarded as initial load in this study. After these thermal loading is modelled as moving loads, influence lines of reactions of shoes are calculated and the successive pavement steps with arbitrary segments are determined to minimize the thermal effect of shoes by influence line.

Since the buried cultural relics are three-dimensional (3-D) objects in nature, 3-D survey is more preferable in archeological exploration. 3-D Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey based on very dense data in principle, however, might need much higher cost and longer time of exploration than other geophysical methods commonly used for the archeological exploration, such as magnetic and electromagnetic methods. We developed a small-scale continuous data acquisition system which consists of two sets of GPR antennas and the precise positioning device tracking the moving-path of GPR antenna automatically and continuously. Since the high cost of field work may be partly attributed to establishing many profile lines, we adopted a concept of data acquisition at arbitrary locations not along the pre-established profile lines. Besides this hardware system, we also developed several software packages in order to effectively process and visualize the 3-D data obtained by the developed system and the data acquisition concept. Using the developed system, we performed 3-D GPR survey to investigate the possible historical remains of Baekje Kingdom at Buyeo city, South Korea, prior to the excavation. Owing to the newly devised system, we could obtain 3-D GPR data of this survey area having areal extent over about $17,000m^2$ within only six-hours field work. Although the GPR data were obtained at random locations not along the pre-established profile lines, we could obtain high-resolution 3-D images showing many distinctive anomalies, which could be interpreted as old agricultural lands, waterways, and artificial structures or remains. This cast: history led us to the conclusion that 3-D GPR method is very useful not only to examine a small anomalous area but also to investigate the wider region of the archeological interests.

From January, 1994 to January. 1996, mitral valve replacement was performed in 27 patients. Among these, 17 patients underwent mitral valve replacement(MVR) with preservation of the annulo-papillary continuity(PAPCMVR) (-Group I), and 10 patients underwent conventional methods of excision of all the chordae(Group II). The operative technique for PAPCM VR consists of the division of the anterior leaflet into anterior and posterior segments, shifting and reattachment of the divided segments to the mitral ring of the respective commissural areas. This retrospective study has been designed to evalute the postoperative left ventricular function in the two groups. In the group 1, LVEF(Left Vnetricular Ejection Fraction : %) was 52 $\pm$ 3 preoperatively And 50$\pm$3 postoperatively, LVESI Vent icular End Systolic Volume Index/mL/m2) wIns 59 :6 and 51 $\pm$ 7, LVEDI Ventricular End Diastolic Volume Index/mL/m2) was 124$\pm$ 11 and 91 :8. In the group II, LVEF was 56$\pm$1 and 47:), LVESVI 62$\pm$12 and 61$\pm$15, LVEDVI 133$\pm$27 and 104$\pm$17. : the variation of the LVEF in these two group was statistically different(p(0.05). A comparison of left ventricular function data between Group I(n: 17) and Group II(n: 10) revealed better results in echocardiographic LVEF(p<0.05), LVEDVI(p<0.01) in the former group. The mean functional class(UYHA) was 2.6 preoperative and improved to 1.0 postoperatively In group 1, and 2.8 and to 1.0 in group II. We conclude that maintenance of continuity between the mitral annulus and papillary muscles is expected to have a beneficial effect on postoperative left ventricular performance.

Serial ultrasonography was conducted on Miniature Schnauzer bitches, on purpose to observe the ultrasonographic appearance of normal ovaries and ovarian structures during the estrous cycle. The size of ovaries was increased from $76.8{\pm}7.5mm^2(Mean{\pm}S.D)$ on Day-12 (Day-0=ovulation day) to $114.4{\pm}5.5mm^2$ on Day-8 and there was no significantly different between both ovaries. The ovaries were recognized by its proximity to the caudal renal pole and appeared moderately echogenic oval shape with a smooth contour. The size of follicles was increased from $8.1{\pm}4.5mm^2$ on Day-12 to $114.4{\pm}5.5mm^2$ on Day-0 and there was no significantly different between both ovaries. The number of follicles was increased from $2.8{\pm}0.7$ on Day-12 to $1.1{\pm}0.1$ on Day-0 and there was no significantly different between both ovaries. The follicles were small anechoic fluid-filled structures in early of proestrus, more increased, and indistinguished from each follicles in late of proestrus. The size of corpora lutea was increased from $19.3{\pm}2.1mm^2$ on Day-0 to $26.4{\pm}8.1mm^2$ on Day-8 and there was no significantly different between both ovaries. The number of corpora lutea was increased from $1.4{\pm}0.6$ on Day-0 to $2.9{\pm}0.4$ on Day-38 and there was no significantly different between both ovaries. The corpora lutea were small anechoic cavity and thin hyperechoic wall in early of diestrus, became more hyperechoic, and increased homogenous structures. The results of this study would be useful for differential diagnosis between normal and abnormal structures of ovaries.

Reinforced concrete structures under sever conditions such as marine structures, bridges and structures constructed with aggregates(dredged from sea), can be deteriorated from corrosion of the reinforcing bars. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-corrosive performance of coated steel using polymer cement slurry. Polymer cement slurry with various polymer dispersions and corrosion inhibiting agent were coated to the surface of bars, and tested for accelerated corrosion tests. Tests include immersion in NaCl 10% solution, chloride ion spray, autoclave cure, autoclave cure after carbonation, penetration of NaCl 10 % solution, carbonation after penetration of NaCl 10% solution. Test results, show that the anti-corrosive performace is considerably improved by using polymer cement slurry at surface of steel. And this trend is marked by adding of corrosion inhibiting agent. This difference of the anti-corrosive properties is hardly recognized according to types of polymer dispersions. The coated steel using polymer cement slurry will be improved to a great extent compared to those of plain steel when increasing content of chloride ion in cement concrete.
