  • Alkali aggregate reaction affects numerous civil engineering structures and causes irreversible expansion and cracking. This work aims at developing model to predict the potential expansion of concrete containing alkali-reactive aggregates. First, the paper presents the experimental results concerning the influence of particle size of an alkali-reactive aggregate on mortar expansion studied at 0.15-0.80 mm, 1.25-2.50 mm and 2.5-5.0 mm size fractions and gives data necessary for model development. Results show that no expansion was measured on the mortars using small particles (0.15-0.80 mm) while the particles (1.25-2.50 mm) gave the largest expansions. Finally, model is proposed to simulate the experimental results by studying correlations between the measured expansions and the size of aggregates and to calculate the thickness of the porous zone necessary to take again all the volume of the gel created by this chemical reaction.

  • 방사성폐기물 저장용기에 생긴 결함으로부터의 핵종유출을 분석하였다. 결함은 부식이나 균열으로부터 기인하며 저장용기의 재질이나 부식 부산물층을 관통하게 된다. 본 연구는 결함을 통한 핵종의 이동을 다루었으며 결함이 생기게 되는 방법에 관해서는 고려하지 않았다. 다수의 작은 결함으로부터의 핵종유출이 중요하며 저장용기가 없다고 가정한 폐기물고화체로부터의 핵종유출과 거의 비슷함을 보여준다. 비록 부분적으로 파손된 저장용기일지라도 핵종유출에 대하여서 장기간에 걸쳐 중요한 방벽의 역할을 하지만, 작은 결함의 수가 많아지면 방벽으로서의 효과가 줄어들게 된다.

  • The high-strength concrete(HSC) compared to normal concrete represents higher autogenous shrinkage due to lower water-to-binder ratio(W/B) and supplementaries, fly ash(FA) and granulated blast-furnace slag(BFS), etc. The potential of early age cracking which reduces durability of concrete structures is normally influenced by autogenous shrinkage and degree of restraint. Therefore, this paper studies on the evaluation of the characteristics of autogenous shrinkage for HSC, ultra-high-strength concrete(UHSC) containing admixtures by experimental test and the test results are compared with existed prediction models.

  • The epilayer of vertically stacked, self-assembled InAs Quantum Dots (QDs)was grown by MBE with solid sources in non-cracking K-cells, and the sample was fabricated to a FET structure using a conventional technology. The device characteristic and performance were studied. At 77K and room temperature, the threshold voltage shift values are 0.75V and 0.35 V, which are caused by the trapping and detrapping of electrons in the quantum dots. Discharging and charging curves form the part of a hysteresis loop to exhibit memory function. The electrical injection of confined electrons in QDs products the threshold voltage shift and memory function with the persistent electron trapping, which shows the potential use for a room temperature application.

  • Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of alcohol YBCO suspensions on the Ag wire electrode is studied. Poly(ethylene glycol) was coordinated to a structure formed by the EPD process with YBCO particles. The suspension is characterized in terms of zeta potential and conductivity. The d.c electric fields of 200-300 V/cm are applied for 1-10 min. The optimal condition for the EPD allows modifying the properties and microstructure of the deposited films. Superconducting coatings with nanometer-sized pores and a preferred orientation along the c-axis were prepared from the result with chemically modified precursor solution. In contrast, YBCO coatings of submicrometer-sized pores and randomly orientated grains were prepared from the solution without PEG.

  • 리브로 보강된 철골 모멘트 내진접합부에 대한 실용적이고 간단한 설계법이 등가스트럿 모델을 바탕으로 최근에 제안된 바가 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 설계법을 검증하고 응력집중에 의한 리브 단부의 균열방지 방안을 모색하기 위한 실험결과를 기술하였다. 제안된 설계법에 의해 설계된 모든 실물대 시험체는 접합부의 소성회전각이 0.04(radian)에 이르는 뛰어난 내진성능을 발휘하였다. 접합부를 리브로 보강함과 동시에 보의 플래지 일부를 잘라내어 보의 소성힌지와 국부좌굴의 발생위치를 리브의 끝단으로부터 보 안쪽으로 약간 이동시킴으로서, 리브단부의 균열발생을 효과적으로 제어할 수 있음을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 또한 리브의 스트럿 작용과 이로 인한 보 웨브에서의 전단역전을 스테레인 게이지 계측을 통하여 실험적으로 입증하였다.

  • 전동기 일체형 유압액추에이터(EHA)는 전기모터와 직결되어 구동되는 유압펌프를 이용하여 유압 피스톤의 변위나 속도를 제어할 수 있도록 모듈화된 유압기기로 효율이 높고 독립된 동력원을 갖는 장점으로 인하여 항공기의 전자구동시스템에 적용되어 왔다. 최근에는 다양한 형태의 유압시스템이 적용되고 있는 건설중장비 분야에서 엔진과 전기모터를 결합한 하이브리드 기술이 개발됨에 따라 EHA의 활용범위가 확대될 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 편로드 유압실린더를 갖는 EHA가 적용된 유압시스템을 대상으로 펌프작동에 따른 유압실린더의 기동 및 정지특성을 고찰하기 위하여 EHA 내부 유압회로의 기능을 파악하고 동특성 모델을 유도하였으며 파일럿작동 체크밸브의 크래킹압력을 분석하여 개방 및 폐쇄특성을 예측하였으며 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석된 결과를 검증하였다.

  • HPFRCC는 물-결합재비 (W/B)가 20%로 상당히 낮고 굵은 골재를 사용하지 않으며, 고분말 혼화재료를 혼입하기 때문에 자기수축이 상당히 크게 발생하여 구조물 적용 시 균열저감대책이 필요하다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 HPFRCC의 수축을 효율적으로 저감시키기 위한 방법으로 수축저감제와 팽창재의 사용을 검토하기 위하여 이들의 단독 또는 병행 혼입률에 따른 역학적 특성과 구속 수축특성을 평가하였다. 구속수축 실험 중에서 링-테스트 (Ring-test)를 통하여 HPFRCC에 사용되는 시멘트에 대하여 중량비로 수축저감제 1%와 팽창재를 7.5%를 병행 사용하였을 경우 압축강도와 인장강도가 크게 저하되지 않으면서도 수축을 가장 효율적으로 저감시킬 수 있는 최적 배합임을 도출하였고 수정된 건조수축 균열실험을 통하여 이를 검증하였다.

  • Although there has been no general agreement on the mechanism of primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) as one of major degradation modes of Ni-base alloys in pressurized water reactors (PWR's), common postulation derived from previous studies is that the damage to the alloy substrate can be related to mass transport characteristics and/or repair properties of overlaid oxide film. Recently, it was shown that the oxide film structure and PWSCC initiation time as well as crack growth rate were systematically varied as a function of dissolved hydrogen concentration in high temperature water, supporting the postulation. In order to understand how the oxide film composition can vary with water chemistry, this study was conducted to characterize oxide films on Alloy 600 by an in-situ Raman spectroscopy. Based on both experimental and thermodynamic prediction results, Ni/NiO thermodynamic equilibrium condition was defined as a function of electrochemical potential and temperature. The results agree well with Attanasio et al.'s data by contact electrical resistance measurements. The anomalously high PWSCC growth rate consistently observed in the vicinity of Ni/NiO equilibrium is then attributed to weak thermodynamic stability of NiO. Redox-induced phase transition between Ni metal and NiO may undermine the integrity of NiO and enhance presumably the percolation of oxidizing environment through the oxide film, especially along grain boundaries. The redox-induced grain boundary oxide degradation mechanism has been postulated and will be tested by using the in-situ Raman facility.
