The effects of interaction between concrete-gypsum interface and edge crack on the failure behavior of the specimens in senicircular bend (SCB) test were studied in the laboratory and also simulated numerically using the discrete element method. Some quarter circular specimens of gypsum and concrete with 5 cm radii and hieghts were separately prepared. Then the semicircular testing specimens were made by attaching one gypsum and one concrete sample to one another using a special glue and one edge crack is produced (in the interface) by do not using the glue in that part of the interface. The tensile strengths of concrete and gypsum samples were separately measured as 2.2 MPa and 1.3 MPa, respectively. during all testing performances a constant loading rate of 0.005 mm/s were stablished. The proposed testing method showed that the mechanism of failure and fracture in the brittle materials were mostly governed by the dimensions and number of discontinuities. The fracture toughnesses of the SCB samples were related to the fracture patterns during the failure processes of these specimens. The tensile behaviour of edge notch was related to the number of induced tensile cracks which were increased by decreasing the joint length. The fracture toughness of samples was constant by increasing the joint length. The failure process and fracture pattern in the notched semi-circular bending specimens were similar for both methods used in this study (i.e., the laboratory tests and the simulation procedure using the particle flow code (PFC2D)).

조간대와 같은 연안지역에서 해수의 토양 이동이 가지는 의미는 육상으로부터 유입되는 오염물질의 토양 이동 및 생물농축, 저서생물들의 생존에 필수적인 플랑크톤, 박테리아, 유기쇄설물, 산소, 영양염, 유기물의 생물공급, 수질 정화량 산정의 중요한 단서가 된다는 점이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 폐쇄성 수역과 같이 파도에너지가 비교적 작은 조간대에서 파도에 의한 해수의 침투거동을 해석하고, 파도에너지와 사면 구배의 변화에 따른 해수의 침투량 변화를 파악하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 실제 조간대에서의 해수 침투량을 개략적으로 산정하는 것을 목적으로 하여, 모의 조간대 실험장치를 이용하여 실험을 수행한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 폐쇄성 수역과 같은 파도에너지가 작은 조간대에서는 파도에 의해서 해수가 반원형의 형태로 토양중으로 침투하는 semi-circular mechanism은 지금까지 알려지지 않았던 새로운 침투 거동임을 알 수 있었다. 구배 또는 쇄파파고가 높아짐에 따라서 해수의 침투량이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 해수는 쇄파파고 보다는 구배의 영향을 크게 받아서 토양중으로 침투한다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 현장토양을 이용하여 해수의 침투량을 정량화 할 수 있었으며, 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 현장 조간대에서의 해수 침투량을 개략적으로 산정 할 수 있었다. 따라서, 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 오염물질의 토양 이동 및 생물농축, 저서생물들의 먹이공급, 수질 정화량 산정에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되기를 요망한다.

A wear transition mechanism during sliding in glass has been observed. Disk specimens of sodalime-silicate glass were slid against AISI 52100 steel with paraffin oil as lubricant. Observations of the micrrx structural change on the worn surface showed that semi-circular cone cracks (SCCCs) were suddenly produced after a certain critical sliding time. These SCCCs brought about the severe damage in the form of extensive microchipping during further sliding. It was shown that the abrupt appearance of the SCCCs is attributable to the grooves formed during sliding, which act as surface flaws.

The two, NBD and SCB tests using gypsum circular discs each containing a single notch have been experimentally accomplished in a rock mechanics laboratory. These specimens have also been numerically modelled by a two-dimensional particle flow which is based on Discrete Element Method (DEM). Each testing specimen had a thickness of 5 cm with 10 cm in diameter. The specimens' lengths varied as 2, 3, and 4 cm; and the specimens' notch angles varied as 0°, 45° and 90°. Similar semi-circular gypsum specimens were also prepared each contained one edge notch with angles 0° or 45°. The uniaxial testing machine was used to perform the experimental tests for both NBD and SCB gypsum specimens. At the same time, the numerical simulation of these tests were performed by PFC2D. The experimental results showed that the failure mechanism of rocks is mainly affected by the orientations of joints with respect to the loading directions. The failure mechanism and fracturing patterns of the gypsum specimens are directly related to the final failure loading. It has been shown that the number of induced tensile cracks showing the specimens' tensile behavior, and increases by decreasing the length and angle of joints. It should be noted that the fracture toughness of rocks' specimens obtained by NBD tests was higher than that of the SCB tests. The fracture toughness of rocks usually increases with the increasing of joints' angles but increasing the joints' lengths do not change the fracture toughness. The numerical solutions and the experimental results for both NDB and SCB tests give nearly similar fracture patterns during the loading process.

In this study, the propagation behaviour and the closure phenomena of physically small surface cracks were investigated by the techinque of the Kikukawa-unloading elastic compliance method using a back face strain gage. The surface cracks initiated and propagated from notched specimens under constant amplitude bending load. The crack shape (aspect ratio) with approximately semi-circular at the early stage was changed to semi-elliptical as the cracks grew larger. The crack depth (a) could be expressed uniquenly by the crack length (c). The dependence of the crack propagation rate on the stress ratio R was strongly related in the lower ${\Delta}K$ range. The deceleration of the surface crack propagation rate was prominent in lower R during the crack length was small. When the propagation rate was rearranged with the effective stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}$K_{eff} the dependence of the crack propagation rate on the stress ratio R was found to be diminshed. These were caused by the crack closure phenomena that was most prominent at the lower propagation rate. The mechanism of crack closure phenomena was dominated by the plasticity-induced mechanism.

A fluid in an enclosure can be heated by electric heating, chemical reaction, or fission heat. In order to remove the volumetric heat of the fluid, the walls surrounding the enclosure must be cooled. In this case, a natural convection occurs in the pool of the fluid, and it has a dominant role in heat transfer to the surrounding walls. It can augment the heat transfer rates tens to hundreds times larger than conductive heat transfer. The heat transfer by a natural convection in a regular shape such as a square cavity or semi-circular pool has been studied experimentally and numerically for many years. A pool of an inverted triangular shape with 10 degree inclined bottom walls has a good cooling performance because of enhanced boiling critical heat flux (CHF) compared to horizontal downward surface. The coolability of the pool is determined by comparing the thermal load from the pool and the maximum heat flux removable by cooling mechanism such as radiative or boiling heat transfer on the pool boundaries. In order to evaluate the pool coolability, it is important to correctly expect the thermal load by a natural convection heat transfer of the pool. In this study, turbulence models with modifications for buoyancy effect were validated for unsteady natural convections by volumetric heating. And natural convection in the triangular pool was evaluated by using the models.

저압화학기상증착법으로 Si 기판에 $P_{2}O_{5}-SiO_{2}$ 광도파박막계를 제작하였다. 제작된 박막의 광도파손실율은 1.65dB/cm이었으나 $1100^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 뒤에는 0.1dB/cm 이하로 크게 감소하였다. 레이저 노광법과 활성이온식각법으로 광도파로를 제작하여 $1100^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하였다. 열처리 결과 도파로 코어의 모양은 사각형에서 반원형으로 바뀌었으며 0.6328$\mu$m에서 0.03dB/cm 그리고 1.53$\mu$m에서 0.04dB/cm의 낮은 도파손실율을 나타내었다. 도파로의 도파손실율이 감소하는 이유로는 고온 열처리과정에서 첫째 박막조직과 결합하여 광흡수를 일으키는 수소가 확산 방출되고 둘째 광산란을 일으키는 도파로의 거친 계면 및 박막조직이 재형성되며, 셋째 식각법으로 도파로를 만들때 생기는 도파로 코어의 거친 계면이 매끄럽게되어 도파광의 산란손실이 중어들기 때문으로 생각된다.
