It has been well known that the alkali-aggregate reaction between the aggregates and cement paste is one of the reasons of a concrete siructre expansion. Because of a serious demage on the concrete stnicture from the expansion, in many countries, the safety of the materials is checked in laboratory by mortar-bar test and the upper limit of expansion in length is 0.1%. The prescriptions are presented in the ASTM C227 and 490 of U.S. which has been international currency and in the KS Handbook F2503, F2546 and L5107 of Korea published by Korean Standards Association. Both of the prescriptions are almost same in their contents. Actually, in the process of preparing and measuring the mortar-bar according to the prescription mentioned above, it seems that there are no problems for its own purpose but a few points are found to be improved upon the methods to increase the accuracy for laboratory work as follows. 1. The prescription of blending ratio(aggregate, cement and water) should be noted by volume not by weight. 2. It is unreasonable to measure the initial length of mortar bars after 24$\pm$2 hours at once regardless the kind of aggregates. 3. It may bring about errors in calculating the expansion ratio under the condition of the denominator value fixed as 254mm. 4. The measuring methods of specific gravity are selected according to the purposes but the pure specific gravity displays the highest accuracy among them.

In construction site, conventional methods such as jackhammer or explosive methods(dynamite) have been often used for the demolition of structures. Use of those methods are more carefully treated in environmentally and historically sensitive area. For those reasons, use of Soundless Chemical Demolition Agent(SCDA) is getting the spotlight. The SCDA is a powder which has expansive strength when it is mixed with water. In these Characteristics, SCDA can destroy the concrete or rock as it is poured into boreholes of the concrete or rock structures. However, there is no industrial standard for the use of SCDA effectively yet. In this study, experimental study to measure the expansive pressure was conducted depending on various boundary conditions such as waterproof, length of the steel pipe, submerged of steel pipe. Furthermore, computational analysis using damage plasticity model to predict the minimum required pressure of the SCDA for the concrete demolition depending on spacing between holes(k-factor) and compressive strength of the concrete was conducted. Obtained results indicates that water heat dissipation with submerged steel pipe shows the stable pressure for measuring the SCDA and hole distance(k-factor) is the most important factor for crack initiation of concrete.

In this study, adsorption characteristics of expanded graphite (EG) were investigated by a series of batch adsorption tests using p-Xylene as a model volatile organic compounds (VOCs). After acid treatment, graphite were expanded at various temperature from $600^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$ for one minute. The optimal temperature was $800^{\circ}C$, where the expansion ratio reached 195 times of original volume. The BET specific surface area of EG was $92.4m^2/g$, which was only 1/10 of granular activated carbon (GAC), however the adsorption of p-Xylene by EG was almost completed within 5 minutes while that of GAC continued for 7 days because the majority of pores of EG was consisted with meso- and macro-pores. According to the Langmuir isotherm analysis, the maximum specific adsorption of p-Xylene onto EG was 24.0 mg/L with the adsorption constant of 7.94. In conclusion, the adsorption capacity of EG was much less than that of GAC due to the significantly lower specific surface area, but the first order kinetic constant was more than 500 times larger than GAC. Overall, EG might be effective where the fast adsorption is required.

요즘 자율주행과 같은 최신 기술의 발전과 더불어 촬영된 영상 장면에 대한 깊이있는 이해가 필요하게 되었다. 특히, 기계학습 기술이 발전하면서 카메라로 찍은 영상에 대한 의미론적 분할 기술에 대한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. FuseNet은 인코더-디코더 구조를 이용하여 장면 내에 있는 객체에 대한 의미론적 분할 기술을 적용할 수 있는 신경망 모델이다. FuseNet은 오직 RGB 입력을 받는 기존의 FCN보다 깊이정보까지 활용하여 RGB 정보를 기반으로 추출한 특징지도와의 요소합 연산을 통해 멀티 모달 구조를 구현했다. 의미론적 분할 연구에서는 객체의 전역 컨텍스트가 고려되는 것이 중요한데, 이를 위해 여러 계층을 깊게 쌓으면 연산량이 많아지는 단점이 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해서 기존의 합성곱 방식을 벗어나 새롭게 제안된 팽창 합성곱 연산(Dilated Convolution)을 이용하면 객체의 수용 영역이 효과적으로 넓어지고 연산량이 적어질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 컨볼루션 연산의 새로운 방법론적 접근 중 하나인 팽창된 합성곱 연산을 이용해 의미론적 분할 연구에서 새로운 멀티 모달 네트워크의 성능 향상 방법을 적용하여 계층을 더 깊게 쌓지 않더라도 파라미터의 증가 없이 해상도를 유지하면서 네트워크의 전체 성능을 향상할 수 있는 최적화된 방법을 제안한다.

We have performed density functional theory calculations for the surface structure of O/Pd(100)-p($2{\times}2$), formed by the adsorption of oxygen atoms of 0.25 ML. The oxygen atoms adsorb preferentially at the fourfold hollow site, and the calculated O-Pd bond length is $2,15{\AA}$, The first interlayer spacing ($d_{12}$) of Pd(100) expands by +0.8% due to the oxygen adsorption, which differs from the experimental value of +3.6% reported by a previous LEED study. Assuming that the LEED sample was possibly contaminated by hydrogen atoms, we also examined the effect of hydrogen impurities on the surface structure. Hydrogen atoms adsorbed on O/Pd(100)-p($2{\times}2$) are found to result in large expansions of $d_{12}$ of Pd(100). Our analysis estimates the amount of hydrogen atoms remaining on the LEED sample as -0.3 ML.

Overexpanded flow of an axisymmetric thruster nozzle is numerically simulated to investigate effects of nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) on the shock structure and thrust performance. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with k-${\omega}$ SST turbulence model are solved utilizing FLUENT solver. As the NPR is raised, thrust performance monotonically increases with the shock structure and flow-separation point being pushed toward the nozzle exit. It is also discussed that the flow structure at nozzle-exit plane which is immediately affected by a position of nozzle-interior shocks and expansion waves, has strong influence upon the thrust performance of thruster nozzle.

It is unavoidable for concrete in a structure to crack due to drying shrinkage. Using an expansion admixture can reduce an initial shrinkage crack and improve a prestress. Therefore, this paper presents the results of a study performed to evaluate this deformation and obtain a better understanding of the behavior of SHCC using an expansion admixture. To evaluate a performance of SHCC using an expansion admixture, was tested a drying shrinkage, compressive strength.

When supersonic underexpanded jets are exhausted from the nozzle, complex shock cell configurations such as barrel shock, expansion fan, Mach disc, and exhaust-gas jet boundary are appeared repetitively. The shock cell is smeared by turbulence dissipation and disappeared in long distance from the nozzle. When underexpanded jet is suddenly impinged on a flat plate, it forms very complex flow structure. In this paper, we solve compressible Wavier-Stokes equation adapting finite volume method to obtain jet impingement flow structure and compare calculated data with experimental ones. It is shown that numerical simulation data are in good agreement with experimental one in a short distance between nozzle exit and flat plate and little influence of underexpanded ratio is appeared in jet impingement now distribution.

In order to consider the reduced mass effects on the out-of-plane ring inversion vibration of 1,3-CHD, the vector-based computer program has been written and the kinetic energy expansion function for the large amplitude ring inversion vibration has been calculated using this program. The structural parameters for the calculations have been determined from the ab initio HF/6-31G** calculation. The potential energy function for the out-of-plane ring inversion vibration of 1,3-CHD has been determined from the kinetic energy expansion function and previously reported low-frequency Raman data. The vibrational Hamiltonian calculation including kinetic energy expansion function made it possible to determine the more reliable out-of-plane potential energy function for the ring inversion of 1,3-CHD.
