The primary failure causes of underground distribution power cables are water penetration in insulation layer and stress enhancement at inner semi-conductive layer. Accordingly, it is needed to improve the materials and the structure of power cables for extending lifetime and preventing failure. We uses non-flaming PE materials instead of PVC as a covering material and encapsulating structure. We also use super smooth class material as a inner semi-conductive layer. The newly developed cables are improved in AC breakdown voltage after ageing tests.

Coolant rubber hoses for automobile radiators can be degraded and thus failed due to the influence of contacting stresses of air and coolant liquid under the thermal and mechanical loadings. In this study, test analysis was carried out for evaluating the degradation and failure mechanisms of coolant hose materials. Two kinds of EPDM rubber materials applicable to the hoses were adopted: commonly-used ethylene-propylene diene monomer(EPDM) rubbers and EPDM rubbers with high resistance against electro-chemical degradation (ECD). An increase of surface hardness and a large reduction of failure strain were shown due to the formation of oxidation layer for the specimens which had been kept in a high temperature air chamber. Coolant ageing effects took place only by an amount of pure thermal degradation. The specimens degraded by ECD test showed a swelling behavior and a considerable increase in weight on account of the penetration of coolant liquid into the skin and interior of the rubber specimens. The ECD induced material softening as well as drastic reduction in strength and failure strain. However EPDM rubbers designed for high resistance against ECD revealed a large improvement in reduction of failure strain and weight. This study finally established a procedure for reliability analysis and evaluation of the degradation and failure mechanisms of EPDM rubbers used in coolant hoses for automobile radiators.

In this research programs, a series test was conducted to show the effects of freeze/thaw process on the various soil properties. The tests were carried out taken from the west sea shore of Korean peninsular and the west sea shore of Scotland, and their results are as follows; 1. There was a positive total heave in a freezing run, although water may he expelled for the sample initially. The water flow must he reverse' from expulsion to intake. 2. The confining pressure had an overriding influence on the heave and frost penetration, a sudden change of the axial strain at failure with strain rate was observed occuring at a strain rate between 10-5 and 10-6, and the initial friction angle of frozen clay was appeared zero. 3. There was shown a significant decrease in liquid limit of soil which was subjected to freeze/thaw process for the initial value of about 20% because of soil particles aggregation. 4. The cyclic freeze/thaw caused a sinificant reduction in shear strength and its thixotropic regain. The frozen/thawed soil exibited negative strength regain, particularly at high freeze/thaw cycles. 5. The freezing temperature greatly influenced on the failure strength of soils and this. Trend was more pronounced the lower the freezing temperature and shown the ductile failure with indistinct peaks.

PHC말뚝의 선단부를 개방시켜서 사용하면 관입저항력의 감소로 인하여 관입깊이가 증가되며, 결과적으로 지지력의 증가를 가져온다. 그러나 개단 PHC말뚝의 사용을 위해서는 다음의 두가지 문제가 해결되어야 한다. 첫째는 말뚝의 선단부를 개방시킴에 따른 지지력의 변화이며, 둘째는 말뚝 내부로 유입되는 관내토에 의한 말뚝 선단부의 파괴여부이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 개단 PHC말뚝의 실용성을 검토하기 위하여 먼저 말뚝의 선단부 형상에 따른 지지력 비교를 목적으로 두개의 폐단말뚝과 두 개의 개단말뚝을 이용하여 토조에서 모형말뚝실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과로부터 말뚝의 선단부 형상에 따른 관입저항력과 지지력의 변화 및 PHC말뚝 선단부의 파괴여부가 검토되었다. 실험결과 동일한 관입깊이에서 개단말뚝의 전체지지력은 관입깊이가 증가함에 따라 폐단말뚝의 전체지지력과 비슷해지며, PHC 말뚝의 경우 말뚝선단부로부터 말뚝내경의 0.8~1.1배되는 영역에서 균열발생의 가능성이 제시되었다.

연약지반 개량목적으로 쇄석다짐말뚝에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되어 왔다. 하지만 이러한 연구들은 수치해석 및 실내모형실험을 토대로 도출해 낸 결과이며, 연성말뚝(기초의 강성이 작아 유연한 기초)의 벌징파괴에 대해 효율적으로 적용할 수 있는 방안에 대한 연구는 없는 실정이다. 이 연구는 SPT 시험의 N치로 추정된 지반물성치의 변화에 따른 쇄석다짐말뚝의 등단면 및 변단면의 하중-침하량 관계에 대한 민감도를 분석하였다. 정재하시험의 하중-침하량 결과에 기초하여 수치해석 시 지반에 대한 지반 물성치를 추정하였다. N치가 3이하인 매우 연약한 점토층의 탄성계수는 700~2000kPa, 푸아송비는 0.40~0.48의 값이 합리적인 것으로 판단되었다.

Porcelain insulators have been used for a long time in 154 kV power transmission lines. They are likely to be exposed to sudden failure because of product deterioration. This study was conducted to evaluate the quality of porcelain insulators. After stresses were applied, the damaged regions of aged insulators were investigated in terms of chemical composition, material structure, and other properties. For porcelain insulators that were in service for a long time, the mechanical failure load was 126 kN, whereas the average mechanical failure load was 167.3 kN for new products. It was also determined that corrosion occurred at the metal pin part due to the penetration of moisture into the gap between the pin and the ceramic. Statistical analyses of failure were performed to identify the portion of the insulators that were broken. Cristobalite porcelain insulators fabricated without alumina additives had a high failure rate of 54% for the porcelain component. In the case of the addition of Alumina (Al₂O₃) to the porcelain insulators to improve the strength of the ceramic component, a more frequent damage rate of the cap and pin of 73.3% and 27%, respectively, was observed. This study reports on the material component of SiO₂ and the percentage of alumina added, with respect to the mechanical properties of porcelain insulators.

From Jan.1982 to Dec.1990, 77 patients with rectal cancer were treated with curative surgical resection followed by postoperative adjuvant irradiation alone or combined with chemotherapy at the Department of Radiation Oncology, Korea University Hospital (KUH). Fifty-four (54/77, $70.1{\%}$) patients underwent abdominoperineal resection , 20 (20/77, $26{\%}$) patients underwent low anterior resection, and 3 (3/77, $3.9{\%}$,) patients had wide excision only. Thirty-nine (39/77, $50.5{\%}$) received sequential chemotherapy (2 cycles to 12 cycles). The 5-year survival rate for the entire group was $43{\%}:\;78.2{\%}$ in B2+B3, $39.4{\%}$ in stage C1+C2+C3. Survival rates decreased with increasing penetration of the bowel wall by tumor and the presence of regional lymph node metastasis. Those patients survival who underwent an abdominoperineal resection also experienced a significant decrease in compared to low anterior resection ($23.1{\%}$ vs. $63.8{\%}$ in 5-year survival, p <0.05). Local failure occurred in 15 ($19.5{\%}$) out of the 77 patients overall, 1($5.3{\%}$) of 19 in stage B2+B3, and 14 ($24.1{\%}$,) of 58 in stage C1+C2+C3. Presacral area was most common site of local failufre (8/17, $47.1{\%}$). Distant failure occurred in 13 ($16.9{\%}$) of 77 patients. The most frequent site of distant failure was the lung followed by the liver, the bone, and the brain. Combined locoregional and distant failure occurred in 2 ($2.6{\%}$) of 77 patients. Pathological confirmation of perirectal fat and/or regional lymph node involvement resulted in a singificant decrease in survival and local control.

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a complex process with several mutually interdependent parameters. A slight difference from known settings may lead to imperfections in the stirred zone. These inhomogeneities affect on the mechanical properties of the FSWed joints. In order to prevent the failure of the welded joint it is necessary to detect the most critical defects non-destructive. Especially critical defects are wormhole and lack of penetration (LOP), because of the difficulty of detection. Online thermography is used process-accompanying for defect detecting. A thermographic camera with a fixed position relating to the welding tool measures the heating-up and the cool down of the welding process. Lap joints with sound weld seam surfaces are manufactured and monitored. Different methods of evaluation of heat distribution and intensity profiles are introduced. It can be demonstrated, that it is possible to detect wormhole and lack of penetration as well as surface defects by analyzing the welding and the cooling process of friction stir welding by passive online thermography measurement. Effects of these defects on mechanical properties are shown by tensile testing.
