  • Rock as a mass generally exhibits discontinuities, commonly witnessed in rock slopes and underground structures like tunnels, rock pillars etc. When these discontinuities experiences loading, a new crack emerges from them which later propagates to a macro scale level of failure. The failure pattern is often influenced by the nature of discontinuity, geometry and loading conditions. The study of crack growth in rocks, namely its initiation and propagation, plays an important role in defining the true strength of rock and corresponding failure patterns. Many researchers have considered the length of the discontinuity to be fully persistent on rock or rock-like specimens by both experimental and numerical methods. However, only during recent decades, there has been a substantial growth in research interest with non-persistent discontinuities where the crack growth and its propagation phenomenon were found to be much more complex than persistent ones. The non-persistence fractures surface is generally considered to be open and closed. Compared to open flaws, there is a difference in crack growth behaviour in closed or narrow flaws due to the effect of surface closure between them. The present paper reviews the literature that has contributed towards studying the crack growth behaviour and its failure characteristics on both open and narrow flaws subjected to uniaxial and biaxial compression loading conditions.

  • Gas-solid suspension 유동에서의 입자운동과 그 운동이 유동장에 미치는 영향을 명시하고, 이 유동에 대한 이해를 얻기 위해 많은 연구가 수행 되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 gas-solid suspension 유동에 대한 노즐의 입구/출구 압력비, 입자/기체 부하, 입자의 직경에 따른 영향 등을 연구하기 위한 분석적 모델을 개발 하였다. 노즐을 통한 유량, Mach수, 추력계수 및 정압 변화에 대한 입자/기체 부하의 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과로부터 입자의 존재로 인해 충격파의 강도가 줄어드는 것으로 판단되며, 입자직경이 커질수록 속도는 작아지고, slip velocity는 커지게 될 것이다. 또한, 더 작은 직경의 입자에 대한 suspension 유동은 이상기체에 대한 단상유동의 결과와 같은 경향이 나타나며, 주위 압력에 따라 더 큰 입자/기체 부하나 배압비에 대한 추력계수가 더 크게 나타났다.

  • Effect on the bio-mass and nutrient yield of Lemna perpusilla Torry was studied at two nutrient loading frequencies. Six polythene sinks ($6{\times}2{\times}0.5m^{3}$ area) randomly allocated to two treatments having three sinks in each treatment. Each sink containing $6{\times}2{\times}0.35m^{3}$ water body, was changed either daily with 12.6 kg anaerobically fermented cattle manure (effluent) or with 76 kg efluent at six-day interval. Media Kjeldhal-N (40 vs. 36 mg/L; p>0.05) and $NH_3$-N (9 vs 7 mg/L; p<0.05) concentration were higher in daily charged sinks than those charged at six-day interval. However, temperature ($28.48{^{\circ}C}\;vs.\;28.60{^{\circ}C}$) and pH (6.82 vs. 6.84) were sinilar in both groups of sinks. Biomass (93 vs. $80g/m^{2}/d$) and crude protein (1.24 vs. $1.11g/m^{2}/d$) yield were non-significantly (p>0.05) higher in the daily charged than 6-d interval charged ponds. However, dry matter (4.52 vs. 4.15%), organic matter (83 vs. 84%), crude protein (31.4 va. 29.6%) and organic carbon (47 vs. 47%) content were similar in both daily and 6-d interval charged ponds. There were no apparent relationships between the crude protein content of Lemna and the media Kjeldhal-N or $NH_3$-N concentration apparently due to saturated level of nutrient (N in particular). It was concluded that with the level of effluent used for two treatments, nutrient-loading frequency had no significant effect on the biomass and protein yield of Lemna. Technique described here can be used for year-round duckweed production from fermented cattle manure for feeding poultry/fish in smallholder production system.

  • 지하수 수위 변동에 따른 중력 변화를 이동식 기조력 중력계(PET)를 이용하여 충청남도 금산군에 위치한 국가 지하수 관측소(금산 금산 지하수관측소)에서 측정하였다. 중력 탐사는 2008년 11월부터 2009년 9월까지 약 10개월에 걸쳐 수행되었다. 또한 중력탐사가 수행되는 기간 동안 지하수 수위변화에 대한 자료도 얻었다. 얻어진 중력 자료로부터 지하수의 수위변동에 의한 효과만을 추출해 내기 위하여, 대기압에 의한 효과, 조석 효과, ocean loading 효과, polar motion과 drift 효과를 제거하였다. 이렇게 보정된 중력 자료를 관측정에서 측정한 지하수 수위변동과 직접 비교하여 중력 신호에 대한 지하수 수위 변동의 영향을 알아보았다. 또한 6월에는 지하수 관측소에 대한 양수 작업이 있었다. 이 작업이 수행되는 동안 지하수의 수위 강화와 충전이 있었으며, 이와 연관된 중력변화도 매우 성공적으로 관측되었다. 지하수 수위변동에 의한 중력 효과의 관측은 대수층의 water mass balance와 수자원에 대한 모니터링에 있어서 아주 유용하게 이용될 것으로 보인다.

  • Theoretical analysis of noise reduction by a membrane-duct system is presented. When acorn waves propagate in the membrane-duct, the membrane is also excited and its motion is coup with interior medium. It has been shown that propagating waves with supersonic wave speed exist beyond a certain critical frequency that is determined from the mass ratio of the me and the fluid. Also found are subsonic waves which couple strongly wi th the membrane a provide a powerful mechanism of energy dissipation. Existence of an exterior medium alter dispersion characteristics. It provides additional mass loading and reduces the subsort speed further. The effect of mean flow speed on dispersion characteristics is also consider results show that the membrane-duct system can be applied to diminish and absorb 1 frequency noise in duct instead of passive muffler, such as a simple expansion chamber absorption material.

  • Evaporation characteristics of single butanol gel fuel were investigated in different mass ratios of gellant and ambient temperatures. Gel fuel was made by adding the pure water and hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) into the 1-butanol. Increase of viscosity was observed when the loading of HPMC increased. The evaporation process of gel droplet could be divided into three stages: droplet heating, micro-explosion and crust formation. Elevation of ambient temperature helped boost the evaporation in all experimental cases, but the effect was mitigated when the mass ratio of HPMC increased. Increase of HPMC weight ratio reduced the evaporation rate.

  • 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 이용하여 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 말뚝-지반 상호작용즉, 지반의 연속성을 고려한 하중전이해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 주면 하중전이함수를 사용자 정의의 경계면 모델(FRIC)로 구현하여 말뚝지반의 미끄러짐 거동과 하중전이 거동을 모델링 하였다. 본 연구결과, 주면마찰력에 의해 발생되는 선단침하량으로 대변되는 지반 연속성 영향은 주면마찰력이 극한상태로 도달할 때까지 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 말뚝직경과 암반계수의 비(D/$E_{mass}$), 전체하중에서 주면마찰력의 비($R_s$/Q)에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 현장재하시험 사례와의 비교분석 결과, FRIC을 이용한 유한요소해석방법은 말뚝의 하중전이 거동과 말뚝-지반 상호작용 효과(coupling effect)를 적절히 나타낼 수 있었으며, 말뚝의 거동을 예측하는데 크게 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

  • Pressure transducers are increasingly used within soil mass or at soil-structure interface for appraisal of stresses acting at point of installation. Calibration of pressure transducers provides a unique relationship between applied pressure and voltage or strain sensed by transducer during various loading conditions and is crucial for proper interpretation of results obtained from pressure transducers. In the present study an in-house calibration device is used to calibrate pressure transducers and the study is divided into two parts: 1) demonstration of developed calibration device for fluid and in-soil calibration of pressure transducers; 2) effect of soil layer thickness on the earth pressure cell (EPC) output. Results obtained from the present study revealed successful performance of the developed calibration device, and significant effect of sand layer thickness on the calibration results. The optimum sand layer thickness is obtained as 1.5 times the diameter of EPC.

  • The vehicle-bridge interaction (VBI) analysis might be cumbersome and computationally expensive in bridge engineering due to the necessity of solving large number of coupled system of equations. However, VBI analysis can provide valuable insights into the dynamic behavior of highway bridges under specific loading conditions. Hence, this paper presents a numerical study on the dynamic behavior of a conventional highway bridge under strong near-field and far-field earthquake motions considering the VBI effects. A recursive substructuring method, which enables solving bridge and vehicle equations of motion separately and suitable to be adapted to general purpose finite element softwares, was used. A thorough analysis that provides valuable information about the effect of various traffic conditions, vehicle velocity, road roughness and effect of soil conditions under far-field and near-field strong earthquake motions has been presented. A real-life concrete highway bridge was chosen for numerical demonstrations. In addition, sprung mass models of vehicles consist of conventional truck and car models were created using physical and dynamic properties adopted from literature. Various scenarios, of which the results may help to highlight the different aspects of the dynamic response of concrete highway bridges under strong earthquakes, have been considered.

  • 실관막 모듈을 이용한 액-액추출은 반응기 단위부피당 표면적이 크므로 신속히 진행된다. 이러한 실관막내에서 추출제와 원료액은 빠른 속도로 접촉하며 두 흐름이 완전히 독립적이므로 부하나 편류현상이 일어나지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 실관막을 이용하여 수용액으로부터 중금속들을 추출하기 위한 추출제들의 선택성을 고찰하였다. 또한, 실관막 내에서 용질의 물질전달에 미치는 분배비의 영향을 확인하기 위하여, 분배비와 총괄물질전달계수를 비교하였다. 이로부터, 분배비가 높은 계는 낮은 계에 비해 실관막 모듈 내에서 물질전달에 미치는 분배비의 영향이 미약함을 알 수 있었다.
