Most design temperature of environmental test in korea is based on the standard of Department of Defense. There are few studies to establish temperature standard. Besides the representative environmental test guide 'MIL-STD-810F' encourage to tailor to generate the most relevant test data possible and to test to make a match of test environment with operational environment. Under these circumstances, it is irrational to comply with baseless daily cycle. Thus the study about design method of test temperature is essential. So, the daily cycles to be appropriate to the Korean peninsula was presented in this study. And this research shows how to derive two main element, frequency-of-occurrence and daily maximum (minimum) temperature in daily cycles, in case we can not find the daily cycle.

There are several antenna calibration methods, so-called 3-Antenna Method, Standard Site Method, and Standard Antenna Method which measure the antenna gains or antenna factors. These methods yield the free space or quasi free space antenna gains in only the frequency domain. In this paper, an antenna calibration method using the time domain in the open area test site is discussed. The reflected waves due to the ground are traced in the time domain. After they are removed by the time gating function of network analyzer, the free space transmission coefficient $S_{21}$ is extracted. Such a way is applied to the broad band horn antenna ranging 1 GHz to 18 GHz, and the free space gains are obtained by Friis transmission equation. The method is checked by Standard Site Method in open area test site. The results show comparatively good agreement except for 18 GHz.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of short and long duration sintering on microstructure and flexural strength of zirconia. Methods: To conduct three-point bending test, Zirconia specimens are milled according to ISO 6872 guidelines(N=18, n=9 per group). Two specimens group(n=8) is sintered for 10 hours(Standard schedule) and 3 hours(Speed schedule) at the peak temperature of 1550℃ with silicon carbide sintering furnace. Flexural strength of specimens are measured by instron. After coating each specimen(n=1), microstructure of specimens is observed using Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). T-test was utilized to statistically assess the data. Results: The mean and standard deviation value of the flexural strength for standard schedule group are 578.15±57.48Mpa, that of speed schedule are 465.9±62.34Mpa. T-test showed significant differences in flexural strength between two zirconia specimen group which applied standard schedule and speed schedule respectively(p<0.05). Conclusion: The result of this study showed that the increase in sintering time led to increased grain size, and also to a positive effect on the flexural strength.

Recently, recycling of industrial by-products and CO2 reduction have been important issues in the world. In this reason, applications and reuse of Fly ash as a binder for concrete, which is generated in thermoelectric power plant, have been one of the effective recycle methods. In order for Fly ash to be applied to concrete, Korean Standard(KS) has selected and managed quality such as $SiO_2$, fineness, specific gravity, ignition loss and activity index. However, there is a limits for activity index, whose test period required is at least 28 days or 91 days. Activity index is the critical indication standard to determine mechanical strength of concrete that contained Fly ash. To complement the disadvantage of test method, this research provided "API test method", which quickly measure Pozzolanic reaction of Fly ash can be considered as a alternative of activity index. Then, the adaptable API test method need to be investigated through comparative analysis with the test result of API, activity index and K-value. The test method can make evaluation of Fly ash quality faster and more accurate. As a result, most Fly ash produced in Korea has not been satisfied in the KS quality standard except water content and specific gravity, and especially fluidized bed boiler ash has its characteristics. Also, API, activity index and K-value have superior interrelationship. The interrelationship between API and activity index and K-value gets increased as the material age gets higher, so API test can be considered as very useful test method for Pozzolanic reaction evaluation of Fly ash.

This research produced internal model tester ($2.0m{\times}2.0m{\times}1.0m$) to evaluate the field application of Paju Unjeong District water recycling system for small streams eco-friendly river bed disparity method for the first time in Korea and conducted comparative analysis of the Paju Unjeong District water recycling system field test results and infiltration rate result of internal tests by each rainfall intensity following surface material. Infiltration rate result of internal tests concrete pavement by rainfall intensity following surface material, asphalt pavement, bentonite mate, stabilized soil construction and mixed soil construction manifested low infiltration rate. On the contrary, compaction soil, grassland and water permeable packaging materials resulted in significant amount of infiltration rate. As for the field permeability test results, they were manifested similar tendency as indoor permeability test results and they satisfied the standard for standard of water permeability of domestic disparity facility (less than $1.0{\times}10-7cm$/sec). As compaction rate increased, unconfined compression strength increased as well while coefficient of water permeability decreased.

Pull-off test is generally used as a method of evaluating bond strength of FRP with concrete at the job site. However, pull-off test damages FRP composites and the maximum pull-off strength is limited up to tensile strength of concrete. Accordingly, it is required to set-up a test method that can simply evaluate bond performance of structural adhesive. This study suggested compression and bending test of epoxy resin as test methods that can indirectly evaluate performance of adhesive, as well as standardized test specification for different types of specifications from various countries. In this study, the section dimension of compression and bending test specimens is unified, and standard test specimen size is achieved by test results.

Objectives : It is sure that standardization of medical instruments is very important and necessary. Cupping therapy is one of the traditional oriental medical method, and it is necessary to set up a standard of cupping therapy and instruments. Methods : We select 3 major cupping instrument makers according to a questionnaire survey of 2001 oriental medical doctors. Dae Gun is A maker, Han Sol is B maker, Dong Bang is C maker. And with these air pumps we make experiments on stability by an inner impact test and a falling test. With these cups we check stability by an inner impact test and a disinfection test. And to know function of these instruments we test a negative pressure and maintain attached cups until 5 to 10minutes. Results : All results of experiments(impacted test, disinfection test, falling test) on stability of cups and air pumps are suitable for medical instrument. And the efficiency of 3 major makers shows various results. Negative pressure of B group is the highest, C group is the second, A group is the lowest. Pressure maintenance test shows A and C group is comparatively up to the experimental standard(<10%), B group is comparatively below the experimental standard(<10%). Conclusions : Results show stability of cups and air pumps is suitable for medical instruments. And negative pressure of cupping and maintenance of pressure show various results. So it is necessary to set up a standard negative pressure of cupping and maintenance of pressure.
