Pile foundations constructed on extremely cold regions cause serviceability problems of superstructures from repeated actions of ground freezing and thawing. Oil sand module plants are mainly constructed on seasonal frozen ground. Due to the freezing and thawing actions of grounds, vertical movements of piles have been observed. To solve these erratic pile movement problems, thin vertical layer of PET aggregates is installed around the pile shaft to prevent potential unfavorable pile movements. There is no known method to calculate "thin PET aggregate layer" -surrounded pile shaft resistance (capacity) against vertical loads; therefore, this experimental research is conducted. Specifically, in this study, horizontal (normal) pressures on pile shaft were assessed varying PET aggregate layer thickness based on the experiment.

Constraints on the structure and composition of the active layer are important for understanding permafrost evolution. Soil convection owing to repeated moisture-induced freeze-thaw cycles within the active layer promotes the formation of self-organized patterned ground. Here we present the results of ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys across a selected sorted circle near King Sejong Station, Antarctica, to better delineate the active layer and its relation to the observed patterned ground structure. We acquire GPR data in both bistatic mode (common mid-points) for precise velocity constraints and monostatic mode (common-offset) for subsurface imaging. Reflections are derived from the active layer-permafrost boundary, organic layer-weathered soil boundary within the active layer, and frozen rock-fracture-filled ice boundary within the permafrost. The base of the imaged sorted circle possesses a convex-down shape in the central silty zone, which is typical for the pattern associated with convection-like soil motion within the active layer. The boundary between the central fine-silty domain and coarse-grained stone border is effectively identified in a radar amplitude contour at the assumed active layer depth, and is further examined in the frequency spectra of the near- and far-offset traces. The far-offset traces and the traces from the lower frequency components dominant on the far-offset traces would be associated with rapid absorption of higher frequency radiowave due to the voids in gravel-rich zone. The presented correlation strategies for analyzing very shallow, thin-layered GPR reflection data can potentially be applied to the various types of patterned ground, particularly for acquiring time-lapse imaging, when electric resistivity tomography is incorporated into the analysis.

This is a report of a case of tuberculous esophageal perforation, which was surgically treated.. The patient was 32-year-old Korean female patient, who complained swallowing difficulty for` 4 weeks duration. Esophagogram was shown irregular filling defects in the upper one third of esophagus, about 4 cm in length. It was noticed that a small amount of contrast media was leaked out from the involved area of esophagus into the right mediastinum. It was highly suggested that abscess formation was due to perforation of esophageal cancer. Esophagoscopy revealed no definitive evidence of perforation of esophagus, but punch biopsy specimen of esophageal mucosa was shown acute and chronic inflammatory changes. Operation was performed under impression of esophageal cancer. In the right-sided upper mediastinum, a walnut-sized abscess cavity which was connected with esophagus through a fistulous tract was noted. A portion of cavity submitted for frozen section was shown tuberculous inflammation. The abscess cavity, fistula tract, and involved esophageal wall were removed. The perforated esophagus was closed layer by layer. The tuberculous changes were confirmed by histopathologic examination postoperatively. The postoperative course was uneventful.

Melting characteristics of unrestrained liquid ice in a rectangular vessel with heated top wall were investigated experimentally. The liquid ice, a mixture of ice particles and ethylene-glycol aqueous solution, was adopted as a testing material. During the melting process the liquid ice was drawn by buoyancy to the heated top wall of the rectangular vessel where close-contact melting occured. The melting behavior and melting rate of the liquid ice as well as local/mean heat-transfer coefficient at the heated top wall were observed and measured under a variety of conditions of heat flux and various initial concentration of the aqueous binary solution. It was found that the heat transfer of the heated top wall is remarkably promoted by the close-contact melting, and that the dendritic frozen layer at the lower interface of the liquid ice is formed. Photographic evidence demonstrated that plumes containing solute-rich liquid issued from isolated chimneys within the liquid ice layer where segregation of interstitial channel took place.

우리나라는 세종과학기지에 이어 두 번째로 남극에 과학기지를 건설하는 사업을 진행하고 있다. 남극은 영구동토지역으로 분류되지만 일부 지반의 상부에는 활동층이 존재한다. 이 활동층이 동결되면 동결팽창으로 인해 지반의 융기가 발생하고 구조물에 부가적인 응력이 유발되어 구조물 안정에 심각한 영향을 미치게 된다. 그러므로 남극 기지 건설지에 대한 동상 특성을 파악하는 것은 구조물의 수명 및 안정성을 확보하기 위해 필수적이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 남극 제2기지 건설지에 대한 동상민감성을 정량적으로 평가하고 흙 입자의 크기와 부동수분량이 동상에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이다. 이를 위해 동남극 테라노바만 주변 기지 건설지 표층에서 채취한 흙 시료에 대해 기본물성실험과 부동수분실험, 동상실험을 수행하였다. 동상실험의 경우 공시체 상부에 냉기를 주입하고 하부에는 물을 지속적으로 공급하여 동상이 발생하도록 유도하였다. 동상실험으로부터 공시체의 동상량과 동상비, 동상속도를 도출하였고, 실험 결과가 흙 입자의 크기 및 부동수분량과 어떤 상관관계가 있는지 분석하였다. 분석 결과 채취한 시료의 미세분 함량이 일정비율을 넘으면 흙 시료의 동상이 크게 발생하였고, 동결토 내의 부동수분에 따라 동상정수는 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 동남극 테라노바만 흙 시료에 대하여, 동결토의 동상에 중요한 영향인자인 흙 입자의 크기 및 부동수분량과 동상량 사이의 관계를 실험적으로 규명하였다는 데에 그 의의가 있다.

Human embryonic stem (hES) cell lines have been derived from human blastocysts and are expected to have far-reaching applications in regenerative medicine. The objective of this study is to improve freezing method with less cryo-injuries and best survival rates in hES cells by comparing various vitrification conditions. For the vitrifications, ES cells are exposed to the 4 different cryoprotectants, ethylene glycol (EG), 1,2-propanediol (PROH), EG with dime-thylsulfoxide (DMSO) and EG with PROH. We compared to types of vehicles, such as open pulled straw (OPS) or electron microscopic cooper grids (EM grids). Thawed hES cells were dipped into sequentially holding media with 0.2 M sucrose for 1 min, 0.1 M sucrose for 5 min and holding media for 5 min twice and plated onto a fresh feeder layer. Survival rates of vitrified hES cells were assessed by counting of undifferentiated colonies. It shows high survival rates of hES cells frozen with EG and DMSO (60.8％), or EG and PROH(65.8％) on EM grids better than those of OPS, compared to those frozen with EG alone (2.4％) or PROH alone (0％) alone. The hES cells vitrified with EM grid showed relatively constant colony forming efficiency and survival rates, compared to those of unverified hES cells. The vitrified hES cells retained the normal morphology, alkaline phosphates activity, and the expression of SSEA-3 and 4. Through RT-PCR analysis showed Oct-4 gene expression was down-regulated and embryonic germ layer markers were up-regulated in the vitrified hES cells during spontaneous differentiation. These results show that vitrification method by using EM grid supplemented with EG and PROH in hES cells may be most efficient at present to minimize cyto-toxicity and cellular damage derived by ice crystal formation and furthermore may be employed for clinical application.

Generally, the temperature drop under $0^{\circ}C$ on vaporizer surface creates frozen dews. This problem seems to increase as the time progress and humidity rises. In addition, the frozen dews create frost deposition. Consequently, heat transfer on vaporizer decreases because frost deposition causes adiabatic condition. Therefore, it is very important to solve this problem. This paper aims to study of the optimum design of used vaporizer at local LNG station. In this paper, experimental results were compared with numerical results. Geometries of numerical and experimental vaporizers were identical. Studied parameters of vaporizer are angle between two fins $(\Phi)$ and fin thickness $(TH_F)$. Numerical analysis results were presented through the correlations between the ice layer thickness $(TH_{ICE})$ on the vaporizer surface to the temperature distribution of inside vaporizer $(T_{IN})$, fin thickness $(TH_F)$, and angle between two fins $(\Phi)$. Numerical result shows good agreement with experimental outcome. Finally, the correlations for optimum design of vaporizer are proposed on this paper.

본 연구는 용융된 파라핀을 채운 수직원관 내의 상변화물질의 초기온도와 수직원관의 벽면온도를 변화시켰을때 관 내에서 일어나는 열전달현상을 다루었다. 자연대류의 효과는 초기과열된 액상영역 내에서 응고초기 짧은 시간에 걸쳐 일어났고, 그 후 전도열전달이 paraffin 전 영역을 지배하였다. 실험에서 관찰한 응고 형태는 상부표면에서 밀도 증가에 의한 수축공간이 발생하였으며, 그 공간의 크기는 냉각이 진행됨에 따라 증가하였다. 자연대류가 끝나자. 상경계면 상에서 수지상 결정과 mush-zone이 발견되었다. 액상 paraffin의 초기과열은 실험 전반부의 응고질량과 응고두께를 감소시키는 경향을 보였으며, 초기액상과열도와 벽면 과냉도가 큰 경우에 크게 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 사질토와 점성토 시료에 대하여 동결 시 내부 구조 변화를 고해상도 3차원 X-ray CT 이미징을 통해 정량적으로 평가하였으며, 동결 과정 중 온도 변화에 따른 탄성파 속도 측정을 통해 재료의 강성도 변화를 관찰하였다. 사질토의 경우 간극수 동결에 따른 내부 구조 변화는 관찰되지 않았으나, 점성토의 경우 시료의 동결 방향과 관계없이, 냉각원으로부터의 거리에 따라 두꺼운 얼음이 형성되는 것을 확인하였다. Two-point correlation 방법을 통해 시료의 동결 패턴을 정량적으로 분석한 결과, 냉각원으로부터의 거리에 따른 사질토의 대표단위길이(Lr)은 일정한 값을 가졌다. 반면 점성토의 경우 그 값이 선형으로 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 시료 양 끝단의 대표단위길이는 약 2.5배의 차이를 보였다. 또한 동결 과정 중 사질토 시료 내 국부적 온도 차이는 관찰되지 않았으나, 상대적으로 낮은 열전도도를 갖는 점성토의 경우 국부적 온도 차이가 관찰되었으며, 온도 변화에 따른 재료의 강성 변화를 평가하였다.
