In order to investigate the effect of variation characteristics of compression index on the spatial distribution of consolidation settlement, this study presents the estimation methods of the distribution of consolidation settlement and compares the estimated settlements. When the variation of compression index is considerable, the ordinary cokriging is more reliable in estimating the compression index than ordinary kriging because smoothing effect of ordinary cokriging is smaller than that of ordinary kriging. The spatial distribution of consolidation settlement estimated by considering both the variation of compression index and void ratio (CASE-1) is different from that estimated by using the mean value of all soil properties (CASE-2). The settlement of CASE-1 shows the larger variation at short distances rather than that of CASE-2. Whereas the spatial settlement distribution of CASE-1 is affected by the spatial distributions of compression index as well as the thickness of consolidation layer, that of CASE-2 is significantly influenced by the distribution of consolidation layer thickness.

The purpose of this study is to critically explore and make an issue of the distribution system presented by Victoria Alexander's 'Modified Cultural Diamond' model. Street artist Banksy was served as a single case, and various secondary data were collected and analyzed for the purposes of this study. First, this study examined the formation of the aesthetic discourse and the increase in the value of Banksy's works by the market intermediaries constituting the distribution system. In addition, this paper placed Banksy's actions and works in Alexander's theoretical framework and critically discussed the following three aspects of the distribution system of 'Modified Cultural Diamond': the divorce between artists and artworks by the distribution system; the ignorance of the direct connection between artist and consumer; and lastly the exclusion of the possibility of distributing works by artists. Based on this discussion, this study has significance in making a theoretical model of Alexander academically controversial.

개수로 흐름에서 유체특성을 파악하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 특히 홍수가 발생하거나 유속의 증가에 따라 유체의 거동은 복잡하고 예측하기 어려워진다. 이러한 복잡한 유체거동은 하천시설물 설계, 시공 및 관리에 있어서 구성재료의 보호능력에 따라 예상하지 못한 조건에서 쉽게 파손될 수 있다. 국내 하천의 경우 한계유속과 한계소류력에 의해 하천설계에 적용되고 있다. 한계 유속의 경우 간단한 수식에 의해 산정될 수 있지만 실제 하천의 보호능력을 대표하기는 힘들기 때문에 한계소류력이 동시에 고려되어야 한다. 한계소류력은 개수로 흐름에서 복잡하게 발생하는 이차류나, 난류 특성에 의해 산정하거나 예측하기는 매우 어렵다. 한계 소류력 뿐만 아니라 하천을 구성하는 재질의 조도계수 역시 균일하지 못하고 매우 예측하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 복잡한 양상을 나타내는 수리학적 요소에 대해 표준화된 실험수로에서 실험을 통해 평가하고, 체계화된 설계지침이 되고자 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 자연하천과 유사한 조건의 경사를 가지는 경사수로와 경사의 영향에서 자유롭게 평가를 진행하고자 무경사수로에서 실험연구를 통해 제방 재료의 안정성 평가방법을 제시하고, 재체의 안정성 평가를 위한 실험진행은 기 개발된 바닥응력을 직접측정하는 장치와 PIV시스템을 이용하여 수리특성을 측정하였다.(Park J.H. et al. 2016, Flow Measurment and instrumentation.) 하천의 설계나 평가에 적용되는 평균 소류력 개념은 복잡한 난류흐름에서 평가지표로써 대표하기 힘들기 때문에 바닥에서 발생하는 소류력을 직접 측정하고, 측정된 소류력을 검증하고자 난류유속 u', v'을 이용하여 Reynolds stress산정하여 Total shear stress를 추정하는 기법을 사용하여 검증하고자 한다.

Levees, the hydro-engineering structure, are similar to earth dams in aspects of shape and structure. However, they are different from earth dams in the external force conditions. As a levee is the structure that is complexly affected by the flow and the water stage in the river, it may be unreasonable to analyze the seepage safety as previous studies derived from the neglect of river flow. In this study, an experiment was conducted to investigate flow structures in a trapezoidal open-channel and the influence of the channel flow on the seepage through a levee. Flow structures in a trapezoidal open-channel were distinguished from a rectangular open-channel such as velocity and bottom shear stress distributions. In case with the flow velocity of 0.5 m/s, seepage water heads were higher 10 percent as compared with the stagnant case. This result is caused by dynamic heads, secondary currents, turbulent fluctuation forces, and various physical factors. It is suggested that external force boundary considered in terms of the flow as well as the water stage is proper to seepage analyses.

The structural behaviour of concrete beam was examined by the three points bending test after the completion of the electrochemical chloride extraction (ECE), rather than bond strength mostly measured in previous studies. It was found that the flexural rigidity of concrete was lowered by the ECE, but the strength was enhanced in terms of the maximum load.The flexural rigidity, in the linear elastic range, was reduced by the loss of effective cross-section area. In fact, the inertia moment was substantially subjected to 70 % loss of the cross-section by the tensile strain at the condition of the failure. However, a lower rate of the inertia moment reduction was achieved by the ECE, implying the higher resistance to the cracking, but the higher risk of deformation.

Highly safe lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are required for large-scale applications such as electrical vehicles and energy storage systems. A highly stable cathode is essential for the development of safe LIBs. LiFePO₄ is one of the most stable cathodes because of its stable structure and strong bonding between P and O. However, it has a lower energy density than lithium transition metal oxides. To investigate the high energy density of phosphate materials, vanadium phosphates were investigated. Vanadium enables multiple redox reactions as well as high redox potentials. LiVPO₄O has two redox reactions (V⁵⁺/V⁴⁺/V³⁺) but low electrochemical activity. In this study, LiVPO₄O is doped with fluorine to improve its electrochemical activity and increase its operational redox potential. With increasing fluorine content in LiVPO₄O_1-xF_x, the local vanadium structure changed as the vanadium oxidation state changed. In addition, the operating potential increased with increasing fluorine content. Thus, it was confirmed that fluorine doping leads to a strong inductive effect and high operating voltage, which helps improve the energy density of the cathode materials.

Crystal structure, microstructure, and dielectric properties of the (Ca, Sr)(Zr, Ti)O₃ (CSZT) system has been studied as a function of sintering temperature and MgO addition for microwave applications. A single-phase CSZT powder with the orthorhombic crystal structure was obtained by the solid-state reaction method. The powder compacts were sintered at 1200℃, 1300℃, and 1400℃ respectively. All the sintered samples had a single-phase orthorhombic crystal structure and grain size increased with sintering temperature. In the case of 1 mol% MgO addition, the orthorhombic crystal structure was the main phase; however, a secondary phase appeared during sintering at 1400℃, as determined by EDS analysis. At 1400℃, the undoped and MgO-doped CSZT had almost similar grain size distribution and densification but the grain size distribution became slightly narrow. The MgO-doped CSZT showed excellent low-loss dielectric properties: ε_r = 34.14, tanδ = 0.00047, τ_ε = -3.58 ppm/℃ at 1 MHz.

As the use of fossil fuels has gradually increased, so has the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, leading to environmental problems. As a result, lithium-ion batteries (LiB) have emerged as the solution to this issue. To manufacture medium to large-sized lithium-ion batteries (LiB), it requires electrodes with high capacity and fast charging capabilities. Silicon (Si) is considered a next-generation anode with high-capacity properties, so, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was compounded with Si@resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (RF) composite to prevent the volume expansion of Si. It was confirmed that the composite anode prepared exhibited improved capacity and enhanced stability.

This is a case report of complete mouth rehabilitation in a patient with generalized attrition and loss of posterior support. After analyzing the condition of the temporomandibular joint, multiple implants were placed to restore collapsed occlusion. Fixture/abutment level intraoral scanning was done instead of using conventional impression materials which entail multiple bite registration for cross-mounting. A 'jaw motion tracking'device, 'digital face-bow transfer', and 'double scan technique' which enables duplicating temporary restoration to definitive restoration were used to fabricate definitive prostheses. By using various digital techniques, complete mouth rehabilitation was done with minimal chair time in a patient with unstable occlusion.

Interest in the future of the battery market is growing as Tesla announces plans to increase production of electric vehicles and to produce batteries. Tesla announced an action plan to reduce battery prices by 56% through 'Battery Day', which included expansion of factories to internalize batteries and improvement of materials and production technology. In the trend of automobile electrification, the expansion of the battery market, which accounts for 40% of the cost of electric vehicles, is inevitable, and the size of the electric vehicle battery market in 2026 is expected to increase more than five times compared to 2016. With the development of materials and process technology, the energy density of electric vehicle batteries is increasing while the price is decreasing. Soon, electric vehicles and internal combustion locomotives are expected to compete on the same line. Recently, the mileage of electric vehicles is approaching that of an internal combustion locomotive due to the installation of high-capacity batteries. In the EV battery market, Korean, Chinese and Japanese companies are fiercely competing. Based on market share in the first half of 2020, LG Chem, CATL, and Panasonic are leading the EV battery supply, and the top 10 companies included 3 Korean companies, 5 Chinese companies, and 2 Japanese companies. All-solid, lithium-sulfur, sodium-ion, and lithium air batteries are being discussed as the next-generation batteries after lithium-ion, among which all-solid-state batteries are the most active. All-solid-state batteries can dramatically improve stability and charging speed by using a solid electrolyte, and are excellent in terms of technology readiness level (TRL) among various technology alternatives. In order to increase the competitiveness of the battery industry in the future, efforts to increase the productivity and economy of electric vehicle batteries are also required along with the development of next-generation battery technology.
