Biot's theory and a modified Biot-Attenborough (MBA) model are applied to predict the dependences of acoustic characteristics on frequency and porosity in cancellous bone. The phase velocity and the attenuation coefficient predicted by both theories are compared with previous in vitro experimental measurements in terms of the mixed, the fast, and the slow waves. Biot's theory successfully predicts the dependences of phase velocity on frequency and porosity in cancellous bone, whereas a significant discrepancy is observed between predicted and measured attenuation coefficients. The MBA model is consistent with reported measurements for both dependences of phase velocity and attenuation coefficient on frequency and porosity. Based on the theoretical predictions from the MBA model, it is suggested that the attenuation coefficient of the mixed wave is dominated by the fast wave in the low-porosity region while it is dominated by the slow wave in the high-porosity region. This provides a qualitative explanation for the nonlinear relationship of attenuation of the mixed wave with porosity in cancellous bone.

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is used to non-invasively estimate the severity of arteriosclerosis by measuring arterial stiffness. Increased arterial stiffness measured by PWV stands for progressive arteriosclerosis and is caused by atherosclerotic risk factors. This study is focused on how brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is related to the leading risk factors for arteriosclerosis or atherosclerosis. Subjects were 114, 69 males and 45 females who are in 60's and had baPWV test for acute stroke. The results are as follows: the group with increased arterial stiffness showed significant increase in HbA1c, total cholesterol, BSBP (brachial artery systolic blood pressure), BDBP (brachial artery diastolic blood pressure), CSBP (central artery systolic blood pressure), CDBP (central artery diastolic blood pressure), augmentation index (AIx) and diabetes mellitus. Correlation analysis between baPWV and atherosclerotic risk factor showed significant relationship in age, HbA1c, LDL cholesterol, BSBP, BDBP, CSBP, CDBP and augmentation index. baPWV was independently related to age and BSBP in multiple linear regression analysis. The group with increased arterial stiffness was independently related to BDBP in multiple logistic regression analysis. This study might be meaningful in evaluating the relationship between arterial stiffness and atherosclerotic risk factor in a new way, and be helped to make various studies for cardiovascular disease.

Ground stiffness(shear wave velocity) is one of the key parameters in geotechnical earthquake engineering. An In-situ seismic technique has its own advantages and disadvantages over the others in stiffness measurements. By combining the crosshole and seismic cone techniques and utilizing favourable features of bender elements, a new hybrid probe has been developed in order to enhance data quality and easiness of testing. The basic structure of the probe, called "MudFork", is a fork composed of two blades, on each of which source and receiver bender elements were mounted respectively. To evaluate the disturbance caused by the penetration of the probe, shear wave velocity measurements were carried out in the Kaolinite slurry in the laboratory. Finally, the probe was penetrated in coastal mud near Incheon, Korea, using SPT(standard penetration test)rods pushed with a routine boring machine and shear wave velocity measurements were carried out. The results were verified with data from laboratory and cone testing. The performance of the probe turns out to be excellent in terms of data quality and testing convenience.

영향성 대륙붕에서는 서로 반대 방향으로 진행하는 두 집합의 대륙붕파가 생성된다. 두 대륙붕이 충분히 떨어질 경우에는 두 집합의 대륙붕파는 독립된 대륙붕파가 되며 이 파들은 하나의 대륙붕 지형의 대륙붕파와 일치한다. 그러나 두 대륙붕의 간격이 Rossby Deformation Radius 보다 가까울 때는 두 집합의 대륙붕파는 두 대륙붕 지형에 영향을 받게 된다. 영향성 대륙붕에서도 대륙붕파는 북반구에서 해안선을 오른쪽에 두고 진행한다. 군속도(group velocity)는 장파인 경우에는 파의 진행방향과 같으나 단파인 경우에는 반대가 된다. 그러므로 각 대륙붕파는 어떤 중간의 파장에서 0인 군속도를 갖게 된다.

Concrete technologists have used ultrasonic pulse velocity test for decades to evaluate the properties of concrete. However, the presented research work focuses on the use of ultrasonic pulse velocity test to study the degradation in steel-concrete bond subjected to increasing loading. A detailed experimental investigation was conducted by testing five identical beam specimens under increasing loading. The loading was increased from zero till failure in equal increments. From the experimentation, it was found that as the reinforced concrete beams were stressed from control unloaded condition till complete failure, the propagating ultrasonic wave velocity reduced. This reduction in wave velocity is attributed to the initiation, development, and propagation of internal cracking in the concrete surrounding the steel reinforcement. Using both direct and semidirect methods of testing, results of reduction in wave velocity with evidence of internal cracking at steel-concrete interface are presented. From the presented results and discussion, it can be concluded that the UPV test method can be successfully employed to identify zones of poor bonding along the length of reinforced concrete beam. The information gathered by such testing can be used by engineers for localizing repairs thereby leading to saving of time, labor and cost of repairs. Furthermore, the implementation strategy along with real-world challenges associated with the application of the proposed technique and area of future development have also been presented.

본 연구에서는 테트라포드로 피복된 경사식 마운드 위의 직립벽에 작용하는 충격쇄파압을 쇄파 형태에 따라 구분하기 위해 규칙파를 생성하고 충돌 직전의 유속장과 기포분율을 측정하였다. 유속장 측정을 위해 쇄파 중 발생하는 기포의 움직임을 추적하는 기포영상유속계를 사용하고 기포분율 측정을 위해 복합파고계 기법(Na and Son, 2021)을 활용하였다. 측정된 입사파의 주기가 짧을수록 최대평균유속은 사면에서 파속에 비해 적은 감소율을 보였지만 파랑이 사면을 따라 진행하며 쇄파가 더 빨리 발생하여 기포분율이 증가하였고 결과적으로 중복파압형태의 파압이 작용하였다. 주기가 큰 실험파의 경우 충돌 전 유입되는 공기가 적어 flip-through 형태(Cooker and Peregrine, 1991)의 흐름양상을 보였고, 파압이 급격하게 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 현재 운영 중인 경상북도 영천시에 위치한 Y댐에 대하여 댐 축조재료 중 코어죤의 최대전단탄성계수 산정을 위한 합리적인 전단파속도를 산정하기 위하여 시추공을 이용한 크로스홀시험과 다운홀시험을 수행하였고, 지표탐사인 MASW(Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Wave, 다중수의 수진기를 이용한 주파수영역 표면파해석)와 반사법 탄성파탐사를 수행하였다. 현장시험으로부터 코어죤의 심도별 전단파속도를 산정하고 그결과들을 비교 분석하였다. 또한, 현장시험 결과와 Sawada의 경험적 제안식을 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 댐 코어죤의 심도별 전단파속도를 산정하기 위해 수행된 4종류의 현장시험 결과를 비교 분석하고, 시험결과와 경험적 제안식을 비교하여 경험식의 적정성을 판단하고, 기존댐 코어죤의 심도별 전단파속도를 합리적으로 산정하는 방법을 제안하는 데 있다. 시험결과, 측정심도 내(18m 이내)에서 다운홀시험, MASW, 반사법탐사에 의한 코어죤의 심도별 전단파속도 산출 결과는 유사한 결과를 보였으며, MASW와 반사법탐사의 경우에는 심도 30m까지 그 산출 결과가 거의 같은 것으로 나타났다. 기존 댐 로어죤의 심도별 전단파속도를 산출하고자 할 때 운영 중인 댐 코어죤에 시추공을 형성하는 것은 현실적으로 매우 어려운 사안임을 감안한다면 MASW나 반사법탄성파탐사와 같은 지표탐사에 의한 전단파속도 산정이 가장 현실적인 방법일 것으로 판단된다. 현장조사가 여의치 않거나 예비조사의 경우에는 기존의 방법과 같이 Sawada의 경험식을 이용할 수 있는데, 경험식을 이용할 경우 Sawada의 제안식 중 하한값을 적용하는 것이 합리적인 방법일 것으로 판단되었다.

Ultrasonic guided wave testing is a very promising non-destructive testing method for rails, which is of great significance for ensuring the safe operation of railways. On the basis of the semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) method, a analytical model of 59R2 grooved rail was proposed, which is commonly used in the ballastless track of modern tram. The dispersion curves of ultrasonic guided waves in free rail and supported rail were obtained. Sensitivity analysis was then undertaken to evaluate the effect of rail elastic modulus on the phase velocity and group velocity dispersion curves of ultrasonic guided waves. The optimal guided wave mode, optimal excitation point and excitation direction suitable for detecting rail integrity were identified by analyzing the frequency, number of modes, and mode shapes. A sinusoidal signal modulated by a Hanning window with a center frequency of 25 kHz was used as the excitation source, and the propagation characteristics of high-frequency ultrasonic guided waves in the rail were obtained. The results show that the rail pad has a relatively little influence on the dispersion curves of ultrasonic guided waves in the high frequency band, and has a relatively large influence on the dispersion curves of ultrasonic guided waves in the low frequency band below 4 kHz. The rail elastic modulus has significant influence on the phase velocity in the high frequency band, while the group velocity is greatly affected by the rail elastic modulus in the low frequency band.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the impact resposes(impulsive stress and strain etc.) of anisotropic materials subjected to the low-velocity impact. For this purpose, a beam finite element program based on modified higher-order beam theory for anisotropic materials are developed and used to simulate the dynamic behaviors [contact force, displacement of ball and target, strain(stress) response histories] according to the changes of material property, stacking sequence, velocity and dimension etc.. Test materials for simulation are composed of $[0^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/0^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}/0^{\circ}]_{2s} and [90^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}/90^{\circ}]_{2s}$ stacking sequences. Finally, the results of this simulation are compared with those of wave propagation theory and then the impact responses and wave propagation phenomena are investigated.
