For the development of hydrazine decomposition catalyst, Hot-fire test to verify performance of catalyst is required. The purpose of a long-life firing test is to demonstrate the capability of a design to perform for the maximum duration or cycles of operation. This paper describes the progress of the catalyst performance test, explains the test matrix, and presents the test results.

This paper describes a detailed assessment of the structural safety, serviceability, capacity rating and long-term performance of a glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) slab bridge superstructure. This first all-GFRP slab bridge was installed in Korea on May 2002. The GFRP slab bridge is a simply supported, its length is 10.0 m, and is designed to carry two-lane traffic and has an overall width of 8.0m. The GFRP slab bridge is a sandwich structure with a corrugated core, fabricated by hand lay-up process with E-glass fibers and vinyl ester resins. The assessment of long-term performance for the GFRP slab bridge in 2004, 2011 includes a field load testing identical to that performed in 2002. The assessment indicates that the GFRP slab bridge has no structural problems and is structurally performing well in-service as expected. The assessment may provide a baseline data for the capacity ratings assessment of the GFRP slab bridge and also serve as part of a long-term performance of all-GFRP bridge superstructure.

This study examined the long-term behavior of a roadbed using high-speed railway concrete track and roadbed measurement data and evaluated the long-term performance of the track and roadbed. Recently, high-speed railway track type has been adopted as a concrete slab. On the other hand, the concrete track is vulnerable to roadbed settlement. In the case of gravel tracks, it is easy to restore the original state by maintenance even if the roadbed settles. On the other hand, in the case of the concrete track, if excessive settlement of the roadbed occurs, cracks are generated continuously on the slabs and sleepers, resulting in greatly reduced usability. For this reason, it is difficult to restore the original state only by partial maintenance. In this paper, a long-term performance evaluation was carried out on a concrete track during operation by monitoring the measurement data of sensors buried from the beginning of construction for approximately 3 years after the high-speed railway opened. Performance evaluation methods include a performance evaluation of track/roadbed when the train passes, long-term track and roadbed performance evaluation, analysis of the track/roadbed effect on long-term settlement and analysis of the factors influencing long-term settlement. The trail response of KTX-Sancheon was greatest in the track/roadbed performance evaluation by train. The results of the long-term track and roadbed performance evaluation were measured within the standard values. The track and roadbed performance impact assessment with long-term settlement was strongly related to TCL settlement. The influences of the water content and groundwater level were verified by analyzing the external factors of long-term settlement. Through such a method, the stability of a track/roadbed can be secured.

Most of the monopropellant thrusters use catalyst for decomposing hydrazine. The thruster lifetime is determined mainly by catalyst lifetime, which can be investigated by firing tests. For the development of hydrazine decomposition catalyst, Hot-fire test to verify long-life performance of catalyst is required. This study describes the development of test equipment for long duration hot-firing and test/evaluation plan.

고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE, High Density Polyethylene) 지오멤브레인은 독성 폐기물 처리시설에서 차수재로 광범위하게 이용되고 있으며, 열이나, 자외선, 그리고 산소와 화학약품에 노출되었을 때의 내구성이 장기성능에 커다란 영향을 미친다 어떤 원인에 의해서 지오멤브레인이 산화될 경우에는 지오멤브레인의 파괴가 가속화되어 구조 시스템의 안정성을 저하시키는 심각한 현상이 발생하게 된다. (중략)

폴리머 애자의 장기성능예측을 위하여 많은 수단과 측정방법이 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 폴리머 애자에 있어서 성능저하는 대부분 하우징 재료의 열화에 기인되고 있어 예측 및 진단목적의 연구가 하우징 재료의 가속열화에 초점이 맞추어져 있다. 폴리머 애자는 초고압 절연성능과 기계적 강도가 우수하여 송배전 설비에 많이 사용되고 있지만 애자의 형상과 장기성능과의 관계가 정량적으로 규명되어 있지 않아 개발하는 회사는 물론 사용하는 전력회사가 함께 어려움을 가지고 있다. 폴리머 애자의 형상이 폴리머 애자의 장기 성능에 어떻게 영향을 주는 지를 비교분석하고 평가하는 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 규칙 교대 갓, 불규칙 교대 갓의 폴리머 애자를 조립방식으로 제작하고, 규칙 교대 갓의 폴리머 애자를 일체형 진공사출 방식으로 제작을 하여 건조섬락전압, 주수섬락전압, 오손섬락전압을 측정하였다. 오손섬락전압은 주수섬락에 비하여 60% 정도 감소함을 보였고 불규칙한 교대 갓의 폴리머 애자의 경우 특성의 편차가 크게 나타났다. 폴리머 애자의 경우 소재의 우수한 특성도 중요하지만 형상적인 인자도 중요한 설계요소이므로 최적화 방안이 요구된다.

In this paper, the long-term performance of highway embankment using tire shred-sandy soil mixture as a lightweight fill material was evaluated through the field monitoring and field test programs. A tire shred-sandy soil embankment was constructed to support a four-lane highway in Indiana, which was built with a 50 : 50 volumetric ratio of tire shreds (maximum particle dimension of 76 mm) and sandy soil (SP, USCS). After opening of the road for traffic, no noticeable differential settlement and lateral deformation were observed, and no adverse environmental impact on temperature was detected as a result of the construction of the tire shred-sandy soil embankment. Moreover, FWD test results showed that tire shred-sandy soil mixture provides bearing capacity comparable to that of conventional fill and meets the criterion for a design life of 20 years.
