In the present study, laboratory tests including the seepage-induced consolidation test, suction test, and desiccation shrinkage test are performed to investigate characteristics of the desiccation shrinkage in reclaimed hydraulic fills. Soil samples for laboratory tests are obtained from three sites (districts of Haenam, Kogeum and Koheung in Chunnam area). Desiccation shrinkage settlement caused by three dimensional volume change is numerically evaluated using finite difference technique based on the governing equation proposed by Abu-Hejleh & Znidarcic. Also characteristics of the desiccation shrinkage analyzed from the test results are used as input data for numerical evaluations. Further predicted total settlements including the self-weight consolidation settlement are compared with values measured at the site of Haenam district. Finally, effects of parameters related to the desiccation shrinkage on settlements are examined.

본고는 지뢰 방호복을 개발, 국산화하기 위해 먼저 방탄소재 구성방법에 관하여 실험한 결과이다. 기존의 여러 겹의 파라-아라미드(Para-aramid)나 단순히 파라-아라미드와 폴리 에틸렌 필름(Polyethlene film)을 조합한 소재구성과는 달리 케블라 파이버(Kevlar fiber)로 만들어진 펠트(felt)를 첨가하여 방탄원리 및 특성을 고려한 구성으로 방호복의 중량을 줄이면서 착용자로 하여금 유연성과 동작성을 향상시켜 임무수행과 안전성을 높일 수 있는 방호복을 개발하고자 하였다. 1) Para-aramid(내 충격열) + Flex-felt(충격 에너지 흡수) + Para-aramid(backface Polyethylene film(에너지 분산 극대)+Para-aramid(내 마찰열, backface순으로 소재를 배열함으로써 기존의 Para-aramed 36겹에 대하여 Para-aramid13겹, Polyethylene film 13겹, 그리고 펠트 1겹으로 동일한 방호성능을 얻었다. 2) 새로운 소재 구성 방법 에 의 한 방탄소재는 동일한 방호성능을 갖는 기존의 소재 구성 방법 에 따른 방탄소재 보다 중량에서 34-l9% ,더 가벼운 것으로 나타나 방호복 구성시 유연성이나 동작성에 유리 할 것으로 사료된다. 3) NIJ-STD-0101.03에서 의 Armor type II에 해당하는 시편 I의 방호한계속도로 구한 운동 에너지량은 154.4J Armor type III-A에 해 당하는 시편II의 방호한계속도로 구한 운동 에너지 량은 183.0J로 나타나 두 시편 모두 5m의 거리에서 M16Al지뢰의 0.032~0.044g사이 의 파편에 대해서 50%의 관통확률을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

This study conducted a network meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness and ranking of pressure ulcer preventive programs in intensive care units. A frequency network meta-analysis was performed to identify evidence from relevant randomized control trials. A total of 10 randomized control trials involving 5 intervention subgroups were included in this study. Based on the ranking probabilities(P-Score), preventive materials was ranked as the most effective among all programs (P-Score 85.3.%: OR=0.12, 95% CI: 0.03, 0.49). Next was silicone foam dressing(P-Score 84.5%: OR=0.14, 95% CI: 0.05, 0.38), care bundle(P-Score 60.0%: OR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.07, 1.25), reposition (P-Score 32.3%: OR=0.66, 95% CI: 0.21, 2.09) and synthetic fabrics (P-Score 23.8%: OR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.20, 3.65). It is necessary to develop practical and efficient interventions that can prevent pressure ulcers in intensive care unit patients, improve patient safety, and reduce nurses' workload.

NASA's lunar polar exploration mission in 2009 confirmed the presence of ice-layer in the permanently shadowed regions (PSR) of the moon. Since then, studies have been actively conducted to evaluate the ground characteristics for exploring the ice-layer in the polar regions of the Moon. In this study, transient heat transfer analysis for the lunar ground was conducted to predict the ground's temperature that varies with the time and location. As a result of the numerical analysis, it was confirmed that the temperature under the lunar ground converged to below the ice sublimation reference temperature (≒112 K) at above 86° latitude. This model enabled us to identify the regions where there is a high possibility of ice being buried. Besides, we found that the ice-layer in the shallow region, where the temperature deviation is significant, makes ground temperature distribution heterogeneous. Lastly, this study suggested the maximum allowable frictional heat of a drill bit that can preserve the phase of buried ice.

This study analyzes the spatial characteristics of knowledge industry which has shown relatively rapid growth in the low-growth economy situation in recent years. In particular, we catch hold of the locational characteristics of the knowledge service industry which occupies the highest ratio by professional-expert jobs favoured by young generations, as well as estimate their occupational employment opportunities. By applying Location Quotient(LQ) and LISA, we reveal the spatial distribution patterns of publishing business, information service business and education service business in the Seoul Metropolitan area, and examine the changes in the spatial patterns during the last ten years. In order to understand the socio-economic factors which explain their locations, we apply the stepwise multiple regression analysis. Furthermore, we predict the changes distribution of Knowledge service industrial employment by applying Markov Chain Model. As the result, we found their clusters at the specific locations, while there is the significant variations in the socio-economic variables related their locations respectively. The related job opportunities of the knowledge service businesses in the Seoul Metropolitan area are predicted steady growth trend for the next four years, even though dull or stagnant trend is expected for other industries. This study provides basic resources to the planning for young generation employment problem.

In order to evaluate the seismic capacity of massive vertical type breakwaters which have intensively been deployed along the coast of South Korea over the last two decades, we carry out the preliminary numerical simulation against the PoHang, GyeongJu, Hachinohe 1, Hachinohe 2, Ofunato, and artificial seismic waves based on the measured time series of ground acceleration. Numerical result shows that significant sliding can be resulted in once non-negligible portion of seismic energy is shifted toward the longer period during its propagation process toward the ground surface in a form of shear wave. It is well known that during these propagation process, shear waves due to the seismic activity would be amplified, and non-negligible portion of seismic energy be shifted toward the longer period. Among these, the shift of seismic energy toward the longer period is induced by the viscosity and internal friction intrinsic in the soil. On the other hand, the amplification of shear waves can be attributed to the fact that the shear modulus is getting smaller toward the ground surface following the descending effective stress toward the ground surface. And the weakened intensity of soil as the number of attacking shear waves are accumulated can also contribute these phenomenon (Das, 1993). In this rationale, we constitute the numerical model using the model by Hardin and Drnevich (1972) for the weakened shear modulus as shear waves go on, and shear wave equation, in the numerical integration of which $Newmark-{\beta}$ method and Modified Newton-Raphson method are evoked to take nonlinear stress-strain relationship into account. It is shown that the numerical model proposed in this study could duplicate the well known features of seismic shear waves such as that a great deal of probability mass is shifted toward the larger amplitude and longer period when shear waves propagate toward the ground surface.
