In construction site, there are some occasions where concrete under initial curing is being affected by nitration from nearby vibration sources. To study these effects, in this paper, strength characteristics of concrete specimens subjected to continuous vibration up to 12 hours in vertical direction after concrete placement were observed. And through the vibration time control experiment where a number of time combinations consisted of times before and after applying vibration during initial curing period were used as experimental parameters, possibility of concrete strength improvement was investigated. From the experimental results, it could be seen that the concrete strengths were mostly decreased due to the increase of vibration velocity during initial curing period. But fluctuation ratio of concrete strength did not have any close correlations with the vibration times. And results of vibration time control experiment showed that if times before applying vibration sustains at least more than 3 hours, subsequent vibrations after that hours do not affect the concrete strength in any unfavorable ways.

The mobility and transport of radioactive cesium are crucial factors to consider for the safety assessment of high-level radioactive waste disposal sites in granite. The retardation of radionuclides in the fractured crystalline rock is mainly controlled by the hydrochemical condition of groundwater and surface reactions with minerals present in the fractures. This paper reports the experimental results of cesium sorption to the Wonju Granite, a typical Mesozoic granite in Korea, performed in an anaerobic chamber that mimics the anoxic environment of a deep disposal site. We measured the rates and amounts of cesium (¹³³Cs) removed by crushed granite samples in different electrolyte (NaCl, KCl, and CaCl₂) solutions and a synthetic groundwater solution, with variations in the initial cesium concentration (10^-5, 5×10^-6, 10^-6, 5×10^-7 M). The cesium sorption kinetic and isotherm data were successfully simulated by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (r²= 0.99) and the Freundlich isotherm model (r²= 0.99), respectively. The sorption distribution coefficient of granite increased almost linearly with increasing biotite content in granite samples, indicating that biotite is an effective cesium scavenger. The cesium removal was minimal in KCl solution compared to that in NaCl or CaCl₂ solution, regardless of the ionic strength and initial cesium concentration that we examined, showing that K⁺ is the most competitive ion against cesium in sorption to granite. Because it is the main source mineral of K⁺ in fracture fluids, biotite may also hinder the sorption of cesium, which warrants further research.

본 연구는 지난 30년간(1975-2004년) 한국의 경제성장과정에서 교육의 부문별(초등 중등 고등교육) 역할을 추정하는 데 주목적이 있다. 본 연구는 우선 신고전학파 Solow의 외생적 경제성장이론을 접목한 Cobb-Douglas 모형을 확장하여 1인당 경제성장 추정을 위한 내생성장모형을 제시하였다. 또한 자료 한계를 극복하기 위하여 동아시아 7개국 자료를 바탕으로 시계 및 횡단면 자료를 블록으로 구축하여 앞의 내생성장모형을 이용한 pooling방법으로 1인당 경제성장에 물적자본, 단순노동력, 인적자본, 지적자본(R&D), 초기년도의 기술수준 등의 기여분을 추정하였다. 이러한 각 생산요소의 직접적인 추정결과로부터 각 요소간(고등교육, 중등교육, 지적자본) 상호작용으로 인한 간접적인 기여분 추정을 위해 연립방정식체계를 구축하고 각 요소의 영향력을 재 추정하여 보정된 결과를 제시하였다. 1975-2004년간 한국의 경제성장 과정에 있어서 인적자본요소인 교육은 40.7%를 기여였으며 이를 다시 분해하면 중등교육이 가장 큰 87.0%, 초등교육이 6.6%, 중등교육에 간접적으로 기여한 대학교육이 -52.9%를 보였다. 물적자본이 39.6%, R&D자본이 24.1%들 보였으며 지식 정보기반사회에서 그 의미가 감소한 단순노동력은 -1.4%, 기술추격을 가능케 하는 1975년도 초기기술수준이 -3.0%의 추정결과를 보여주고 있다. 향후 정책연구 과제로는 한국미 지식기반사회에서 선진국으로 진입하기 위해서는 경제성장과정에서 대학의 역할을 제고할 필요성이 있음을 제안하고 있다. 이를 위해서는 기존 대학의 양적인 구조조정이 필요하다. 특히 대학의 질적 경쟁력을 높이기 위한 정부의 대학 지원 역할 역시 제고되어야 할 것이다. 또한 이 글은 교육시장과 노동시장을 어떠한 방법으로 연계 시키는가를 논의하고 세계시장의 급격한 기술변화와 체제변화에 따라 국내노동시장의 필요한 산업인력수요의 내용도 같은 속도의 변화를 요구하고 있음을 상기시키고 연계지원 정책을 주장하고 있다.

Ultra Rapid Coagulation (URC) can dramatically remove pollutants loaded in wastewater by adding weighted coagulation additives (WCA) and recycling sludge into the coagulation basin to increase settling velocity and surface adsorption ability of floc. Also settling chamber together with lamella plates offers the high rate settling velocity, which can economically treat a considerable amount of pollutants like as combined sewage overflow (CSO) during the heavy rainfall and reduce the pollutants load into the receiving water for securing water source. It was estimated optimal configuration of settling chamber by using fluent model and the possibilities of reusing the sludge generated in this system.

A flat-type membrane bioreactor(FMBR ) for aerobic whole cell immobilization was developed and its performance for the citric acid production was investigated using Aspergillus niger (KCTC 1232). The reactor consisted of three layers. The top layer contained flowing air for oxygen supply, the middle layer had stationary cells, and the bottom layer had flowing aqueous nutrients. The initial pH of the culture medium played an important role in citric acid production and the lower initial pH of the culture medium resulted in a higher citric acid yield. Under air and pure oxygen aerations the volumetric productivity reached 0.20 and 0.40g/Lh. Furthermore, the productivity improved with the increase of the culture medium feed rate.

Membrane bioreactors for wastewater treatment must operate for long periods without chemical cleaning. This study investigates the critical flux concept introduced by Field et al. as a means for achieving this goal. We conducted two series of tests: at fixed transmembrane pressure(TMP) and at fixed permeate flux. set by a volumetric pump on the permeate. Comparison of constant pressure and constants flux tests under same conditions showed that the critical flux is almost identical to the limiting or pressure independent flux obtained in constant pressure. More generally, constant flux procedure below the critical flux avoids overfouling of the membrane in the initial stage and is more advantageous for membrane bioreactor operation.

This paper describes the re-design and the calibration results of the MAG digital circuit onboard the KSR-3. We enhanced the sampling rate of magnetometer data. Also, we reduced noise and increased authoritativeness of data. We could confirm that AIM resolution was decreased less than InT of analog calibration by a digital calibration of magnetometer. Therefore, we used numerical-program to correct this problem. As a result, we could calculate correction and error of data. These corrections will be applied to magnetometer data after the launch of KSR-3.

Research was initiated to compare establishment vigor, uniformity, rooting potential and turf quality in sods of cool-season grasses (CSG). Several turfgrasses grown under pure sand soil were tested. Establishment vigor, uniformity, rooting potential and turf quality were evaluated in the study. Turfgrass entries were comprised of three blends from Kentucky bluegrass (KB, Poa pratensis L.), perennial ryegrass (PR, Lolium perenne L.), and tall fescue (TF, Festuca arundinacea Schreb.), respectively and three mixtures among them. Differences by treatments were significantly observed in establishment vigor, uniformity, rooting potential and turf quality. Early establishment vigor was mainly influenced by germination speed, being fastest with PR, intermediate with TF and slowest with KB. In a late stage of growth, however, it was affected more by growth habit, resulting in highest with KB and slowest with TF. There were considerable variations in sod uniformity among turfgrasses. Best uniformity among monostand sods was associated with KB, while poorest one with TF. PR sod produced intermediate uniformity between KB and TF. The uniformity of polystand sods of CSG mixtures was inferior to that of monostands of KB, PR and TF, due to characteristics of mixtures comprised of a variety of color, density, texture and growth habit. The greatest potential of sod rooting was found with PR and the poorest with KB. Intermediate potential between PR and KB was associated with TF. In CSG mixtures, it was variable, depending on turfgrass mixing rates. Generally, the higher the PR in mixtures, the greater the sod rooting potential. At the time of sod harvest, however, turfgrass quality of KB was superior to that of PR. because of its characteristics of uniform surface, high density and good mowing quality. These results suggest that a careful expertise based on turf quality as well as sod characteristics like establishment vigor, uniformity and rooting potential be strongly required for the success of golf course or athletic field in establishment.

Since the rate and completeness of combustion in direct injection engines were controlled by the characteristics of gas flow fields and sprays, an understanding of those was essential to the design of the direct injection engines. In this study the numerical simulations of swirl effects on the characteristics of gas flow fields and sprays were performed using the spray model that could predict the interactions between gas fields and spray droplets. The governing equations were discretized by the finite volume method and the modified k- e model which included the compressibility effects due to the compression/expansion of piston was used. The results of numerical calculation of the spray characteristics in the quiescent environment were compared with the experimental data. There were good agreements between the results of calculation and the experimental data, except in the early stages of spray. In the motoring condition, the results showed that a substantial air entrainment into the spray volume was emerged and hence the squish motion was relatively unimportant during fuel injection periods. As the swirl ratio increased, the evaporation rate was increased due to the wide dispersion of the spray droplets and the strong interaction between spray droplets and gas fields.

최근 정보통신산업이 급속도로 발전함에 따라 Internet을 이용하여 각종 정보를 쉽게 얻을 수 있게 되어 수자원 분야에도 정보의 공유와 자료의 통합이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 또한 재해정보를 효율적이고 직관적으로 표현하기 위해서 방재업무에 GIS를 도입하고 있다. Internet을 통한 손쉬운 정보의 취득은 효율적인 재해관리에 매우 중요하며, 자료의 효율적인 관리와 표현을 위한 GIS기법 또한 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Internet과 GIS를 결합하여 보다 많은 사람들이 신속하고 정확한 재해정보를 얻을 수 있게 하며, 방재 업무에 활용토록 하여 재해에 의한 주민들의 생명의 위협과 재산피해를 줄이도록 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 효과적인 재해관리를 위해서는 계획과 관련된 정보, 재해발생 이력, 대상지역의 각종 정보가 통합되어 실시간으로 전달될 필요가 있다. 또한 이러한 정보들을 빠른시간내에 이해하고 분석하여 대책을 수립하고 시행해야한다. Internet GIS는 비상상황에 대비한 계획과 대처 그리고 복구사업에 있어 가장 정확하고 신속한 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있다. 즉, Internet GIS는 방대한 양의 정보를 효과적이고 지능적으로 분석이 가능하며, 이해하기 쉬운 그래픽 기반의 자료를 보여주므로 방재업무에 큰 도움을 줄 수 있다. Internet GIS를 방재정보 시스템에 이용할 경우 에 있어 장점, 약점, 기회, 위기에 대한 SWOT분석을 실시하였다. Internet이라는 환경의 장점을 그대로 이어받아 비용면에서 효과적이며 적용범위와 사용자층도 넓어지게 된다. 또한 누구나 간편하게 이용할 수 있어 협력체계 또한 쉽게 구축할 수 있으며 빠른 정보의 교환이 가능하다. 하지만, 인터넷에 의존한다는 점에 있어 서버가 자연재해에 노출될 경우 시스템 자체가 제 기능을 할 수 없으며 여러명이 동시에 서버에 접속을 하기 때문에 컴퓨터에 부하가 많이 걸리는 모델링이나 복잡한 분석은 실시하기 어려우며, 대용량 데이터를 전송할 수 있는 대역폭이 확보 되어야 한다. 또한, Internet 환경으로 개발을 해야되기 때문에 데스크탑용 GIS에 비해 개발속도가 느리며 개발 초기비용이 많이 들게 된다. 하지만, 네트워크 기술의 발달과 모바일과의 연계 등으로 이러한 약점을 극복할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 인터넷 GIS를 이용하여 홍수재해 정보를 검색, 처리, 분석, 예경보할 수 있는 홍수방재정보 시스템을 구축토록 하였다.
