  • 최근 들어 외부 강선을 이용한 프리스트레스트 콘크리트구조물의 건설이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 극한거동 해석시 단면 적합조건을 이용하는 내부 부착 강선과는 다르게 외적 비부착 강선은 부재의 전체거동에 의해서 응력 증 가량이 결정된다. 또한 편향부에서의 미끌림 효과와 강선의 편심 변화 효과 등이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구는 외 부 강선을 가지는 프리스트레스트 콘크리트(PSC) 보의 거동 특성을 평가하기 위하여 강선량, 긴장력 등을 변수로 하여 정적 휨실험을 수행하여 외부 강선 부재의 휨거동 특성을 얻었다. 실험 결과에 의하면 균열발생 이전의 외부 강선 PSC 부재는 부착 강선 PSC부재와 거동 차이가 크지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 균열이 발생한 이후의 거동에서는 철근의 항복하중, 극한하중, 강선 응력 등이 외부 강선 부재에서의 값이 부착 강선 부재에 비해서 작게 나타나고 있다. 하중-강 선 변형률 관계에서 보면, 외부 강선 부재들의 경우, 하중 증가에 따른 외부 강선 변형률의 증가량은 초기 긴장력의 크 기 순서와 거의 반대의 순서로 외부 강선의 변형률이 증가한 것으로 나타났으나, 다만 초기 긴장력이 크다할지라도 강 선의 유효응력이 작은 경우의 강선 변형률은 강선의 유효응력이 큰 부재들보다는 다소 작게 증가하고 있는 것으로 나 타났다. 외부 강선 부재의 콘크리트에 발생된 압축 변형률의 크기는 외부 강선의 유효응력 크기 순서와 일치하는 것으 로 나타나, 콘크리트의 압축변형률은 외부 강선의 유효응력에 비례함을 알 수 있다. 실험 결과와 기존의 설계식과 비교 해본 결과, ACI-318에 의한 결과는 긴장력 혹은 유효응력이 차이를 전혀 반영하지 못하고 있고 특히, 그 결과가 실험 결과보다 상당히 작게 나타나, 지나치게 보수적인 것으로 판단된다. 한편 AASHTO 1994는 ACI-318과는 다르게 강선량, 초 기 힘 및 유효응력 등의 변화에 적절하게 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났지만 내부 비부착 강선의 실험 결과를 이용 하여 작성된 이유로 외부 강선 실험 결과보다 지나치게 큰 결과를 유발하고 있는 것으로 평가된다. 이러한 이유로 외 부 강선의 극한응력을 정확하게 예측할 수 있는 새로운 규정이 필요하다.

  • It has been recognized for decades that the spherical bearing which is sliding on curved surface in the intrinsic behavior is optimized for the railway bridge requiring a large slope deflection. However, the spherical bearing is easily corrosived at the PSC girder bridge which is exposed to the outside so the normal function of bridge bearing is not fulfilled fully. It is common that the corrosion is happened at the operating plate of steel bridge bearing and generally it is necessary to replace the bridge bearing after 20~25 years. Accordingly, It costs multi billion dollars for maintenance each year and the necessity of improvement become a issue. Korea Rail Network Authority(KR) suggested to apply the Elastomeric bearing instead of Spherical bearing through the task of construction site of 2006. But the normal Elastomeric bearing is optimized for the Highway bridge so it needs the special consideration to satisfy each design condition required by railway bridge. As the result of examination of Elastomeric bearing at the railway bridge construction site, the stress is decreased by effective dispersion of earthquakes and the maintenance fee is also decreased.

  • Purpose: This study was done to identify the effects of Qi hand reflexology on autonomic nerve activity in patients admitted to hospital. Method: A non-equivalent control group and quasi-experimental research with pre/post test design were used and 59 patients on a medical ward were assigned to either the experimental group (32) or the control group (27). The study variables included vital signs, autonomic nerve activities (ALF (absolute low frequency), AHF (absolute high frequency), nLF (normalized low frequency), nHF (normalized high frequency), SDNN (standard deviation of all normal-normal intervals)) and were evaluated using the QECG-3 system. The experimental group was treated with Qi hand reflexology for 10 minutes per day, for 3days. Results: Skin temperature and systolic blood pressure in the experimental decreased with treatment. ALF, AHF and SDNN for the experimental group increased with regulating proportion (nLF: nHF=6:4) and a significant difference between the groups was observed. Conclusion: The results indicated that application of Qi hand reflexology for patients in the hospital is effective in regulating the autonomic nervous system activation. Implication of finding should be useful for future research.

  • 유방이나 전립선과 같은 연조직에서 발생하는 암이나 종양은 주위 조직보다 단단한 경향을 가진다. 하지만 초음파 B-mode 영상을 보면 암은 주위 조직과 거의 비슷하여 구별하기 어렵다. 따라서 조직의 단단한 정도를 영상화하면 더 정량적인 정보를 제공해 진단에 도움을 줄 수 있다. 초음파탄성영상은 측정하고자 하는 연조직에 기계적인 힘을 가하고 변형된 정도를 측정하여 영상화 한다. 탄성영상은 기존의 초음파 영상 진단기법과 더불어 종양을 진단하는 유용한 방법으로 자리매김하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 지금까지 발표된 다양한 탄성영상 방법을 분류하고 각 방법의 원리, 특성 등을 살펴본다.

  • Purpose: Glucocorticoids (GCs) are implicated in secondary osteoporosis, and the resulting fractures cause significant morbidity. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) play a vital role in bone metabolism. However, few trials have studied the impact of omega-3 PUFA-containing oils against GC-induced osteoporosis. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to determine whether supplementation with omega-3 PUFA-containing dietary oils such as fish oil, flaxseed oil or soybean oil can impede the development of GC-induced osteoporosis. Methods: The fatty acids (FAs) content of oils was determined using gas chromatography. Male rats were subdivided into 5 groups (8 rats each): normal control (balanced diet), prednisolone control (10 mg/kg prednisolone daily), soybean oil (prednisolone 10 mg/kg + soybean oil 7% w/w), flaxseed oil (prednisolone 10 mg/kg + flaxseed oil 7% w/w), and fish oil (from cod liver; prednisolone 10 mg/kg + fish oil 7% w/w). Results: The study data exhibited a significant depletion in bone mineral density (BMD) and femur mass in the prednisolone control compared to the normal control, accompanied with a marked decrease in the levels of plasma calcium and 1,25-$(OH)_2$-vitamin $D_3$, and elevated levels of C-terminal telopeptide (CTX), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-${\alpha}$) and malondialdehyde (MDA). Supplementation with fish oil, soybean oil or flaxseed oil helped to improve plasma calcium levels, and suppress oxidative stress and inflammatory markers. Additionally, bone resorption was suppressed as reflected by the decreased CTX levels. However, fish oil was more effective than the other two oils with a significant improvement in BMD and normal histological results compared to the normal control. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that supplementation with dietary oils containing omega-3 PUFAs such as fish oil, soybean oil or flaxseed oil can play a role in the prevention of bone loss and in the regulation of bone metabolism, especially fish oil which demonstrated a greater level of protection against GC-induced osteoporosis.

  • Interplay between Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV)/Odontoglossum ringspot virus (ORSV) and its host plant Phalaenopsis equestris remain largely unknown, which led to deficiency of effective measures to control disease of P. equestris caused by infecting viruses. In this study, for the first time, we characterized viral small interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs) profiles in P. equestris co-infected with CymMV and ORSV through small RNA sequencing technology. CymMV and ORSV small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) demonstrated several general and specific/new characteristics. vsiRNAs, with A/U bias at the first nucleotide, were predominantly 21-nt long and they were derived predominantly (90%) from viral positive-strand RNA. 21-nt siRNA duplexes with 0-nt overhangs were the most abundant 21-nt duplexes, followed by 2-nt overhangs and then 1-nt overhangs 21-nt duplexes in infected P. equestris. Continuous but heterogeneous distribution and secondary structures prediction implied that vsiRNAs originate predominantly by direct Dicer-like enzymes cleavage of imperfect duplexes in the most folded regions of the positive strand of both viruses RNA molecular. Furthermore, we totally predicted 54 target genes by vsiRNAs with psRNATarget server, including disease/stress response-related genes, RNA interference core components, cytoskeleton-related genes, photosynthesis or energy supply related genes. Gene Ontology classification showed that a majority of the predicted targets were related to cellular components and cellular processes and performed a certain function. All target genes were down-regulated with different degree by vsiRNAs as shown by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Taken together, CymMV and ORSV siRNAs played important roles in interplay with P. equestris by down modulating the expression levels of endogenous genes in host plant.

  • Low temperature is one of the most severe abiotic stress factors limiting growth, productivity and distribution of winter cereals. Reliable field screening method, which can detect small differences in winter survival, is important for the effective selection and development of plants to identity superior cold tolerant winter cereal genotypes. This study was undertaken to provide improved screening method of winter hardiness in the field by increasing the accuracy in evaluating winter hardiness of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). We introduced furrow in field screening of winter survival. By sowing the plants at the ridge and base, we could minimize the effect of topographic variation in a field by giving higher and lower level of stress at the same time. This method could be used by breeders to conduct accurate evaluation of winter hardiness by selecting the better treatment, which shows close to normal distribution, among the winter survival rate from the ridge, base and mean survival rate of the two in a screening field.
