하천유량 측정방법 중 표면유속을 측정하는 방법은 수표면의 유속만을 측정하기 때문에 평균 유속을 산정하기 위해서는 평균유속 환산계수를 적용해야 한다. 일반적으로 표면유속을 평균유속으로 산정하기 위하여 이론 및 실험을 통해 제시된 환산계수는 0.84~0.95의 범위에서 현장 여건을 고려하여 적용하도록 되어 있다. 환산계수는 현장에서 수위별(또는 유량별) 직접 유속분포를 측정하여 산정해야 한다. 그러나 표면유속 측정이 주로 이루어지는 홍수사상에서는 유속이 빠르기 때문에 유속분포를 측정하고 분석하는 것이 어려우 국내에서는 0.85를 환산계수로 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 2016~2017년 국토교통부 수문조사사업을 통해 8개 수위관측소에서 전자파표면유속계(MU2720)로 측정된 40개의 자료와 Price AA, ADCP, 부자 등을 이용하여 측정된 자료 기반으로 개발된 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 표면유속을 평균유속으로 산정하기 위한 환산계수(환산계수 = 수위-유량관계곡선의 유량 / 표면유속으로 산정한 유량)를 검토하였다. 또한 전자파표면유속계와 비교 유속계로 동시에 측정한 3개의 자료를 이용하여 환산계수를 직접 검토하였다. 여기서 표면유속 및 평균유속은 한 측선의 유속이 아닌 전체 단면에 대한 평균유속이다. 그 결과 표면유속을 평균유속으로 환산하기 위한 환산계수는 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용한 경우 0.76~0.95(평균 0.85, 표준편차 0.04)로 산정되었다. 또한 비교 유속계와 동시에 측정한 3개 자료에 대해 환산계수를 산정한 결과 평균 0.85(0.82~0.91)로 산정되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 기존에 제시된 환산계수의 범위와 크게 다르지 않았으며, 일반적으로 환산계수로 사용되는 0.85의 값은 해당 지점의 유속분포 정보가 없을 때에는 유효할 것으로 판단된다.

Currently, cofferdams of circular cross section are widely applied as temporary facilities for the installation of bridge foundations in river/sea bridge construction in Korea. Existing caisson, sheet pile, and cell type cofferdam are widely used, but these methods take a lot of time and cost for installation and dismantling. In the case of the existing sheet pile construction method, attention is needed to secure internal and external stability because of the damage to the sheet pile due to ground penetration and difficulty in connecting element members. In this study, penetration design of circular steel pipes using suction pressure was performed on the soft ground of the west coast, and it was confirmed that penetration construction using suction pressure was possible through field tests. It was confirmed that applying the ground analysis results using the cone penetration test (CPT) to the design rather than the standard penetration test (N value) results more similar to the field test results. In addition, it was confirmed that local failure of the inside of the cofferdam was induced when a suction pressure higher than the upper limit suction pressure was applied in the silty sand.

도로, 철도 등의 횡단통로, 오폐수관로, 지하배수관 등 연약지반에서 상재하중과 부등침하에 의한 파괴 위험을 줄이기 위해 구조적인 안전성과 내구성이 개선된 다양한 관로들이 활용되고 있다. 관은 매설특성에 따라 콘크리트관, 도관, 합성수지관, 덕타일 주철관, 파형강관, 유리섬유 강화 플라스틱과 폴리에스테르수지 콘크리트관 등의 종류로 구분된다(환경부, 2017). 수리설계 시 이러한 관의 단면 규모 결정 및 흐름 특성을 파악하기 위해 관수로 유량측정에 이용되는 Manning의 경험식을 이용하고 있으며, 관로의 주요 재질에 따른 다양한 조도계수가 제시되어 있다. 새로운 재질을 이용하여 제작된 관은 수리실험을 통해 조도계수를 결정하는 것이 바람직하지만, 조도계수 실험은 대규모의 실험시설과 유량공급이 요구되기 때문에 여러 한계가 있다. PE관의 경우, 미국의 ASTM 표준에 의해 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LDPE), 선형 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LLDPE), 고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE) 등으로 분류되는데 본 연구에서는 HDPE 재질의 서로 직경이 다른 다중벽관 PE관을 대상으로 조도계수를 결정하기 위한 현장 실규모 수리실험을 수행하였다. 본 실험에서는 식생, 수로의 불규칙성, 수로노선, 침전과 세굴, 장애물, 계절적 변화, 부유물질과 소류사는 무시되며 표면조도, 관의 크기와 형상, 수위와 유량이 조도계수에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자라고 할 수 있다. 수리실험은 실물모형(Prototype)으로 한국농어촌공사 농어촌연구원의 대형수리모형실험장에서 수행되었으며. 길이 24 m, 직경 150 mm의 PE 관은 고정식 개수로, 직경 800 mm의 관은 대형유사순환수로에 각각 설치되었다. 관로의 전면에 차폐막을 설치하여 상류부 수위를 안정시킨 상태에서 실험을 수행하였고, 차폐막으로부터 하류방향으로 약 7 m(측정기준지점), 11 m, 13 m, 15 m, 17 m 떨어진 곳에서 각각 수위와 유속을 측정하였다. 실험 결과, φ150관은 직경대비 수심이 클수록 조도계수가 감소하는 경향이 나타났고, φ800관은 직경대비 수심의 변화에 따른 조도계수의 경향이 크게 드러나지 않았다. 결론적으로 PE관의 조도계수는 수심별로 변화하는 것으로 나타났으며, 특정 수심을 지나면 조도계수가 다시 감소할 것으로 판단된다.

The primary purpose of this study is to build computer models referring overall flow of complex and various semiconductor wafer manufacturing process and to implement a educational model which operates with a presentation tool showing device design. It is important that Korean semiconductor industries secure high competitive power on efficient manufacturing management and to develop technology continuously. Models representing the FAB processes and the functions of each process are developed for Seoul National University Semiconductor Research Center. However, it is expected that the models are effective as visually educational tools in Korean semiconductor industries. In addition, it is anticipated that these models are useful for semiconductor process courses in academia. Scalability and flexibility allow semiconductor manufacturers to customize the models and perform simulation education. Subsequently, manufacturers save budget.

This is the first part of a two-part paper which describes comparison of reliability design methods by application to Donghae Harbor Breakwaters. This paper, Part 1, is restricted to stability of armor blocks, while Part 2 deals with sliding of caissons. Reliability design methods have been developed fur breakwater designs since the mid-1980s. The reliability design method is classified into three categories depending on the level of probabilistic concepts being employed. In the Level 1 method, partial safety factors are used, which are predetermined depending on the allowable probability of failure. In the Level 2 method, the probability of failure is evaluated with the reliability index, which is calculated using the means and standard deviations of the load and resistance. The load and resistance are assumed to distribute normally. In the Level 3 method, the cumulative quantity of failure (e.g. cumulative damage of armor blocks) during the lifetime of the breakwater is calculated without assumptions of normal distribution of load and resistance. Each method calculates different design parameters, but they can be expressed in terms of probability of failure so that tile difference can be compared among the different methods. In this study, we applied the reliability design methods to the stability of armor blocks of the breakwaters of Donghae Harbor, which was constructed by traditional deterministic design methods to be damaged in 1987. Analyses are made for the breakwaters before the damage and after reinforcement. The probability of failure before the damage is much higher than the target probability of failure while that for the reinforced breakwater is much lower than the target value, indicating that the breakwaters before damage and after reinforcement were under- and over-designed, respectively. On the other hand, the results of the different reliability design methods were in fairly good agreement, confirming that there is not much difference among different methods.

Steel structures have been generally painted to prevent corrosion damage. However, the painted film is deteriorated with increase in service life, and then corrosion damage resulting in cross sectional area occurs on steel surface. As a result, the buckling strength of steel structures can be decreased due to the corrosion damages. The evaluation method of the axial buckling strength of columns about a variety of section shapes and supporting conditions have been presented, but evaluation method of buckling strength about irregular nonprismatic columns is not established. In this study, the axial buckling strength of corroded steels was evaluated based on the buckling test results of corroded steel specimens that were cut off at a temporary steel structure. The corroded specimens were picked up total 10 specimens according to various slenderness ratio from the web of a temporary structure's main beam. The length of specimens is 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600mm respectively. The rust productions were removed by the chemical treatment. Then, the surface geometry was measured at intervals of $1{\times}1mm$ by using the optical 3D digitizing system, and the residual thickness of the specimens was calculated. The axial buckling test was performed on 10 corroded specimens and 12 non-corroded specimens under the fixed-fixed support condition. From the test results, the effect of corrosion damages on axial buckling load was investigated. Regardless of corrosion damage degree, the axial buckling strength of corroded specimens and non-corroded specimens was evaluated identically by using minimum average residual thickness or average residual thickness to minus its standard deviation. Reasonable measuring intervals of residual thickness was proposed by using the results to apply for practical works.

A cross-sectional survey was conducted to determine the prevalence rate of scoliosis in elementary, middle and high school boys in May 1988. The study population included 1,393 male students in Pusan ; 463 students of 4th grade in two elementary schools, 543 students of 1st grade in one middle school and 387 students of 1st grade in one high school. The students of elementary school were screened with inspection by two physicians at the same time and the students of middle and high schools were screened with both inspection by the same physicians and 70mm chest X-ray. Positive students in any one of the two screening tests were measured for height and body weight and asked for the shoulder side on which he carries the school bag. The angle of curvature on X-ray film was measured by Cobb's method. The number of positive students in any one of the two screening tests were 15(3.2%) in elementary schools, 174(32.0%) in middle school and 92(23.8%) in high school. However, positive rates in both tests were only 2.2% for the middle school students and 2.6% for the high school students and among these students 1.1% out of total middle school students and 2.3% of high school students had a curvature equal to or greater than $5^{\circ}$ of Cobb's angle on 70mm chest X-ray film. There was a statistically significant association between the direction of spinal curve and the shoulder side on which one carries school bag among positive students in both screening 1.sts (p<0.05) Mean height and body weight of 281 positive students in any one of two screening tests were compared with the Korean standard for the same age. Mean weight of elementary school students was nearly the same as the standard weight but the height was slightly shorter than the standard. However, both mean height and weight of the middle school students were lower than the standard while those of the high school students were higher. The prevalence rate of scoliosis for the 2nd and 3rd grades of high school is presumed to be higher than that of the 1st grade of high school and the rate for girls will be even higher than the rate for boys of the same age. Thus, scoliosis seems to be an important school health problem. To prevent scoliosis, it is recommeded to reduce the weight of school bag, educate the students to keep a right posture and exercise periodically.

This study examined the influence of the apical sizes on the sealing ability of a root canal filling. Thirty-six single rooted teeth with a single canal were divided into 3 groups (n = 12) and instrumented with either the $Profile^{(R)}$ or $LightSpeed^{(R)}$ system to achieve three different apical sizes (master apical file [MAF] of #25, #40, or #60). The teeth were filled with gutta perch a using a modified continuous wave technique. The level of microleakage was determined by immersing ten teeth from each group into India ink for 1 week followed by clearing with nitric acid, ethyl-alcohol, and methylsalicylate. The microleakage was measured using vernier calipers. The data was analyzed statistically using Kruskal-Wallis one-way ANOVA and a Student-Newman-Keuls Method. Two teeth from each group were sectioned horizontally at 1, 2, 3 and 4 mm from the apex in order to observe a cross section. The apical size was significantly (p < .05) influenced the level of microleakage. In the Student-Newman-Deuls Method, MAF sizes of #25 and #40; and MAF sizes of #25 and #60, respectively showed a statistically significant difference. There was no significant difference between #40 and #60. In most cross sections, oval-shaped canals were observed, and the irregularity of the internal surface increased with decreasing apical size. There was also an increase in the area of recess, which is the area where the canal space is not filled with either gutta-percha or sealer. When the root canals are filled using a modified continuous wave technique, canal filling with more consistent and predictable outcome may be expected as the apical preparation size is increased.

In this study, we evaluated the dose response of MAGAT (Methacrylic Acid Gelatin gel and THPC) normoxic polymer gel dosimeters based on the X-ray CT scanner. To perform this study, we determined the proper ratio of the gel composition and acquired X-ray scan parameters. MAGAT gel dosimeters were manufactured using MAA (MethacrylicAcid) and gelatin of various concentration, irradiated up to 20 Gy. We obtained the 20 CT images from the irradiated gel dosimeters by using on a Phillips Brilliance Big Bore CT scanner with the various scan parameters. This CT images were used to determine the $N_{CT}$-dose response, dose sensitivity and dose resolution As an amount of MAA and gelatin were increase, the slope and intercept were increase in each MAGAT gel dosimeter with various concentration of the $N_{CT}$-dose response curve. The dose sensitivity was $0.38{\pm}0.08$ to $0.859{\pm}0.1$ and increased were amount of the MAA was increased or the gelatin was decreased. However, the change of gelatin concentration was very small compare to MAA. The Dose resolution ($D_{\Delta}^{95%}$) varies considerably from 2.6 to 6 Gy, dependent on dose resolution and CT image noise. The slope and dose sensitivity was almost ident verywith the variation of the tube voltage, tube current and slice thickness in the dose response curve, but the noise (standard deviation of averamalg CT number) was decreased when the tube voltage, tube current and slice thickness are increase. The optimal MAGAT polymer gel dosimeter based on the CT were evaluated to determine the CT imaging scan parameters of the maximum tube voltage, tube current and slice thickness (commonly used in clinical) using the composition ratio of a 9% MAA, 8% gelatin and 83% water. This study could get proper composition ratio and scan parameter evaluating dose response of MAGAT normoxic polymer gel dosimeter using CT scanner.

Background: Background: Computed tomography (CT) is the main tool for detecting abnormalities of the thoracic aorta, but conventional CT only shows the cross-sectional images. These CT images have some limitations fo accuratly measuring the thoracic aortic diameters at various levels. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) overcomes these limitations. We measured the thoracic aortic diameter perpendicular to the loop-shaped thoracic aortic course and this was studied in relation to age, gender, height, weight, the body surface area, the body mass index and the presence of hypertension. Material and Method: Thirty hundred thirty one patients (males: 141 patients and females: 190 patients) who had no abnormalities of the thoracic aorta were investigated using MDCT aortography. They were divided into three age categories: 20~39 years old, 40~59 years old and over age 60. The image was reformed with multiplanar reconstruction and the diameter of the aorta was measured perpendicular to the aortic course at 5 anatomic segments. Level A was the mid-ascending aorta, level B was the distal ascending aorta, level C was the aortic arch, level D was the aortic isthmus and level E was the mid-descending aorta. Result: The mean age was 49.5 years old for males and 54.9 years old for females (p<0.05). The mean diameter of the thoracic aorta at level A was 31.1 mm, that at level B was 30.2 mm, that at level C was 26.5 mm, that at level D was 24.0 mm and that at level E was 22.6 mm. The diameters at all the levels were gradually increased with age. Hypertensive patients had larger diameters than did the non-hypertensive population. There was a positive correlation between the ascending aortic diameter (levels A&B) and height and the body surface area, but there were no statistical differences at the aortic arch (level C) and the descending aorta (levels D&E). There were no statistical differences of the weight and body mass index at all levels. Conclusion: The diameters of the thoracic aortas were directly correlated with gender, age and hypertension. Height and the body surface area were only correlated with the ascending aorta. Weight and the body mass index have no statistical difference at all levels. We measured the age related thoracic aortic diameters and the upper normal limits and we provide this data as reference values for the thoracic aortic diameter in the Korean population.
