The effects of fiber orientation on acoustic emission(AE) characteristics have been studied for various composite laminates. Reflection and transmission optical microscopy were used to investigate the damage zone of specimens. AE signals were classified through short time Fourier transform(STFT) as different types: AE signals with a high intensity and high frequency band were due to fiber fracture, while weak AE signals with a low frequency band were due to matrix cracking and/or interfacial cracking. Characteristic feature in the rate of hit-events having high amplitudes showed a procedure of fiber breakages, which expressed the characteristic fracture processes of notched fiber-reinforced plastics with different fiber orientations. As a consequence, the behavior of fracture in the continuous composite laminates could be monitored through nondestructive evaluation(NDE) using the AE technique.

The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of stress corrosion cracking(SCC) and acoustic emission(AE) signals for the weld HAZ of HT-60 steel under corrosion control in synthetic seawater. Corrosive environment was controlled by potentiostat, and SCC experiment was conducted using a slow strain rate test method at strain rate of 10$^{-5}$ /sec. In order to verify the miroscopic fracture behaviour of the weldment during SCC phenomena, AE test was done simultaneously. Besides, correlationship between mechanical parameters and AE ones was investigated. In case of the parent, reduction of area(ROA) at -0.5V was samller than any other applied voltage such as -0.8V and -1.1V. In addition, reduction of area for the PWHT specimens at -0.8mV was larger than that of the weldment due to the softening effect according to PWHT. In case of the weldment, a lots of events was produced because of the singularities of the weld HAZ compared with the parent.

The purpose of the present study is to identify the damage characteristics of concrete structures due to cracking by employing the acoustic emission techniques. A comprehensive experimental study has been done. The cracking damages under tensile and flexural loadings have been identified and the bond damage between steel and concrete have been also characterized. It is seen that the amplitudes and energy level of AE events is found to be smaller for bond cracking damages and larger for tensile cracking damages. The characteristic equations of the AE events for various cracking damages have been proposed based on the present test data. The internal microcracks are progressively developed ahead of a visible actual crack and the present study clearly exhibits thses damage mechanism for various types of cracking in concrete. The present study provides very useful data which can be used to identify the various types of cracking damages in concrete structures. This will allow very efficient maintenance of concrete structures through monitoring of internal cracking based on acoustic emission.

Uniaxial compression tests were conducted on sandstone-CGFB composite samples with different interface angles, and their strength, acoustic emission (AE), and failure characteristics were investigated. Three macro-failure patterns were identified: the splitting failure accompanied by local spalling failure in CGFB (Type-I), the mixed failure with small sliding failure along with the interface and Type-I failure (Type-II), and the sliding failure along with the interface (Type-III). With an increase of interface angle β measured horizontally, the macro-failure pattern changed from Type-I to Type-II, and then to Type-III, and the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus generally decreased. Due to the small sliding failure along with the interface in the composite sample with β of 45°, AE events underwent fluctuations in peak values at the later post-peak failure stage. The composite samples with β of 60° occurred Type-III failure before the completion of initial compaction stage, and the post-peak stress-time curve initially exhibited a slow decrease, followed by a steep linear drop with peaks in AE events.

AE기법을 이용하여 PSC보부재에 대한 음파의 전파속도와 음원위치 산정방법의 타당성을 알아보기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 길이가 5m 인 PSC보 콘크리트 표면에 7개의 AE센서를 부착하였으며, 슈미트 햄머를 이용하여 콘크리트 표면에 인위적인 충격을 가하였다. 음파의 전파속도는 각각의 AE센서로부터 감지한 음파의 도달시간 차이와 음원과 센서와의 거리 차이를 이용하여 산정하였다. 또한 각 AE센서로부터 감지된 음파의 도달시간과 음파의 전파속도를 토대로 최소제곱법을 이용하여 역으로 음원 발생위치를 산정해 보았다. 실험결과 프리스트레스트콘크리트 매질에 대한 음파의 평균전파속도는 대략 4,000 m/sec 정도이며, 음원과 AE 센서 사이의 거리가 길어짐에 따라 음파의 감쇠현상에 의해 속도가 감소되었다. 최소제곱법을 이용한 음원위치 산정결과, 음파의 전파속도를 전체 AE센서의 평균전파속도를 이용하는 경우보다, 각 AE센서로 부터 산정된 음파의 전파속도를 이용하는 경우 오차가 감소되는 것을 확인하였다.

Objectives : To develop and validate a survey form for adverse events(AEs) associated with acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. Methods : The 1st version of a survey form consisting of 9 categories was developed and modified based on the analysis of questionnaires from previous studies on AEs. To evaluate content validity of the 1st version, a Delphi survey where experts in acupuncture and moxibustion, and research methodology were invited, was conducted alongside a separate content validity questionnaire. The content validity indices for each item and total scale were calculated as the proportion of the number of experts judging each item or scale valid to the number of total experts. Results : After the Delphi round 1, the content validity of 2 items and total scale was rated as inadequate. The 1st version was modified accordingly, and the 2nd version of the survey form was developed. The content validity of the 2nd version was assessed in the Delphi round 2 and the final version was completed after incorporating the expert comments. The final version consists of 13 questions regarding practitioner/patient information, condition/disease, intervention, treated body parts, safety issue and AE occurrence related with practitioner's behavior or instruments, AEs associated with treatment and emergency actions taken if necessary, time to AE occurrence, outcomes, serious AEs or death, and time to AE disappearance. Conclusions : This newly developed and validated survey form will serve to collect AEs associated with acupuncture and moxibustion treatments in Korea and contribute to establishing the evidence on safety of Korean acupuncture treatment.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the occurrence and types of the adverse events (AEs) associated with oral fluconazole and itraconazole and factors associated with specific types of AEs. Methods: We analyzed AEs reported by community pharmacies nationwide over 10 years using the Korea Adverse Event Reporting System database. Various AE terms were categorized into 18 types, and concomitant medications were classified by drug-drug interaction (DDI) severity. The relationship between the specific type of AE and age, sex, and number of concomitant medications was investigated using multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 879 AE reports of fluconazole and 401 reports of itraconazole were analyzed; of these reports, 321 and 83 reports of fluconazole and itraconazole, respectively, described concomitant drug administration categorized as DDI severity of contraindicated or major. Women had a higher risk of psychiatric AEs associated with fluconazole use (OR, 1.587; p=0.042). Polypharmacy increased the risk for psychiatric AEs (OR, 3.598; p<0.001 for fluconazole and OR, 2.308; p=0.046 for itraconazole). In dermatologic AEs, the mean age of patients who received itraconazole was lower than that of patients who received fluconazole (46.3±16.8 vs. 54.9±15.4; p<0.001). Co-administration of fluconazole with 1-3 drugs increased the risk of neurological AEs (OR, 1.764; p=0.028). Conclusion: When using fluconazole and itraconazole, psychiatric AEs should be noted, particularly in women and in case of polypharmacy; moreover, when fluconazole is co-administered with other drugs, attention should be paid to the occurrence of neurological AEs.

본 연구에서는 연속형 일방향 및 수자직 유리섬유강화 복합재료로 인장 시험편을 만들어 AE 특성에 대한 섬유배향 효과를 살펴보았다. AE 신호들을 STFT 처리하여 특성별로 분류하였으며, 반사식 및 투과식 편광현미경을 이용하여 시험편의 손상영역을 관찰하였다. 저주파수 대역의 약한 AE 신호들은 모재 및 계면에서의 손상으로 나타났으며, 높은 진폭의 고주파수 대역 AE 신호들은 섬유 파단에 기인하였다. 섬유 파단 과정에서 발생하는 고진폭의 AE 사상률을 기본 특성 데이터로 하여 다른 섬유배향과 노치방향을 가진 복합재에서의 파괴과정을 특징지을 수 있었다. 결론적으로, AE범은 연속형 유리섬유 강화 복합재의 파괴거동을 탐지하는데 있어 유용함을 알 수 있었다.

음향방출(AE: Acoustic Emission) 기법은 구조물 내부에서 발생하는 균열을 연속적으로 모니터링 할 수 있는 효과적인 비파괴검사법이다. 본 논문에서는 AE센서을 이용하여 PSC 보에서의 파원위치를 결정하기 위한 수학적 모델을 제시하고 실험을 통해 제시된 모델을 평가하였다. 실험을 위해 제작된 5m-PSC보의 표면에서 인위적으로 쉬미트해머의 타격에 의해 탄성파를 발생시켰으며 1m 간격으로 선형으로 배치된 7개의 AE센서에 의해 탄성파의 도달시간이 측정되었다. 최소제곱법에 의해 측정된 도달시간의 잔차의 제곱합이 최소가 되도록 파원의 위치를 구한 후, 실제 타격위치와 비교하여 추정된 위치결정방법의 정확도를 평가하였다. 54개의 타격실험을 통해 얻어진 파원위치의 평균제곱근 오차는 약 2cm 이었다.
