오늘날 석유화학, 정밀화학, 대기오염 방지산업 등에서 증류, 흡수, 추출, 탈거 등 물질분리 단위공정으로 주로 충전탑을 사용해 왔다. 충전탑은 가스-액체, 가스-가스 시스템에서의 물질들과의 접촉에 의해 운전되어 진다. 이러한 충전탑은 낮은 압력손실, 경제적 효율, 고온성 액체물질 적용, 유지보수 용이, 유해가스 처리 등의 운영에서 장점들을 가진다. 충전탑의 성능은 충진물을 통해 가스와 액체를 고르게 분산함으로써 우수한 성능을 보이며, 이는 충전탑 설계에 있어 중요한 인자로 고려되어진다. 본 실험에서는 충진물에 대한 액체부하 및 가스용량인자에 따른 건조압력손실, 수력학적 압력손실, 액체함량 변화에 대한 기하학적 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 결과로부터 설계인자와 운전조건 등의 유해가스 처리에 필요한 인자를 도출하였다. 임의 충진물인 raschig super-ring에 대한 건조압력손실을 측정한 결과, 가스용량인자가 증가할수록 일정하게 선형적으로 증가하였고, 가스용량인자가 0.630 ~ 3.448 kg^-1/2 m^-1/2 S^-1에서 건조압력손실은 1.892 ~ 47.312 mmH₂O m^-1로 기존 산업현장에서 보편적으로 사용되는 35 mm pall-ring보다도 낮은 압력손실을 보였다. 그리고 raschig super-ring에 대한 수력학적 압력손실을 측정한 결과, 고유 액체부하에 대하여 가스용량인자가 증가할수록 압력손실도 함께 증가함을 확인하였고, 액체부하 변화에 따른 가스용량인자가 1.855 ~ 2.323 kg^-1/2 m^-1/2 S^-1으로 20% 증가할 때, 압력손실은 약 17% 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 충진물 체적에 관한 액체함량은 가스용량인자에 의존된 액체부하 매개변수로서 액체부하 변화에 따른 가스용량인자 약 3.84 kg^-1/2 m^-1/2 S^-1까지는 거의 일정한 액체함량을 보였으나, 그 이상에서는 급격하게 증가하였다.

Energy-saving block and invisible multiribbed frame composite wall (EBIMFCW) is an important shear wall, which is composed of energy-saving blocks, steel bars and concrete. This paper conducted seismic performance tests on six 1/2-scale EBIMFCW specimens, analyzed their failure process under horizontal reciprocating load, and studied the effect of axial compression ratio on the wall's hysteresis curve and skeleton curve, ductility, energy dissipation capacity, stiffness degradation, bearing capacity degradation. A formula for calculating the peak bearing capacity of such walls was proposed. Results showed that the EBIMFCW had experienced a long time deformation from cracking to failure and exhibited signs of failure. The three seismic fortification lines of the energy-saving block, internal multiribbed frame, and outer multiribbed frame sequentially played important roles. With the increase in axial compression ratio, the peak bearing capacity and ductility of the wall increased, whereas the initial stiffness decreased. The change in axial compression ratio had a small effect on the energy dissipation capacity of the wall. In the early stage of loading, the influence of axial compression ratio on wall stiffness and strength degradation was unremarkable. In the later stage of loading, the stiffness and strength degradation of walls with high axial compression ratio were low. The displacement ductility coefficients of the wall under vertical pressure were more than 3.0 indicating that this wall type has good deformation ability. The limit values of elastic displacement angle under weak earthquake and elastic-plastic displacement angle under strong earthquake of the EBIMFCW were1/800 and 1/80, respectively.

연구배경: 횡격막의 운동은 흉부 단순 촬영과 fluoroscopy로 관찰해 왔으나 근래 초음파에 의해서 횡격막의 운동거리와 두께를 측정하는 연구들이 있어왔다. 초음파 검사의 장점을 살펴보면 간편하고 비침습적이며 방사선조사가 없고 재현성과 정확성이 있다는 점을 들 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 횡격막 운동 측정에 대한 초음파의 장점을 이용하여 정상인과 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자에서 횡격막 운동을 조사하고 그 결과를 폐기능 지표들과 비교하였다. 연구방법: 정상 성인 28례(의과대학생 16례, 나이를 고려한 대조군 12례)와 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자 17례를 대상으로 각각에서 폐기능 검사, 최대 흡기압, 최대 호기압과 초음파상 횡격막의 이동 거리를 측정하여 비교하였다. 초음파는 Aloka 사의 KEC-620 모델을 이용하였으며 앙와위 상태에서 환자의 쇄골 중심선에 해당하는 부위의 우상복부에 횡으로 3.5MHz 탐촉자를 대고 간을 에코창으로 이용하여 M-mode 상에서 평상 호흡시와 폐활량 호흡 또는 최대 호흡시의 횡격막 이동 거리를 3회 측정하여 그 평균값을 얻었으며 최대 흡기압과 최대호기압은 Chest사의 Vitalopower KH-101을 이용하여 3회 측정하여 그 평균값을 얻었다. 결 과: 정상인에서의 횡격막 이동거리는 평상호흡에는 1.5cm-1.7cm를 보였고 최대호흡시에는 5.7cm-6.7cm를 보였다. 정상인에서의 최대호흡시에 횡격막 이동거리는 $FEV_1$ $FEV_1/FVC$, PEF, PIF, 신장과 유의한 상관관계를 보였으나 다중 희귀분석에서는 $FEV_1$ 만이 유용한 예측지표로 계산되었다. 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자에서의 횡격막 이용거리는 평상호흡시에는 $1.5{\pm}0.6cm$로 정상인과 유의한 차이가 없었으나 최대호흡시에는 $3.7{\pm}1.3cm$로 대조군에 비해 유의하게 감소되어 있었다. 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자군의 각 병기에 따라 횡격막 이동거리를 비교해 본 결과 최대호흡시 횡격막의 이동거리는 $FEV_1$이 감소할수록 짧은 경향을 보였으나 통계적 의의는 없었다. 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자에서의 최대호흡시에 횡격막 이동거리는 연령, PEmax, %FVC와 유의한 상관관계를 보였으나 다중 회귀분석에서는 최대호기압(PEmax)과 연령이 유의한 예측인자로 계산되었다. 결 론: 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자의 횡격막 이동거리는 정상인에 비해 유의하게 감소하였으며 최대호기압과 가장 좋은 상관관계를 보였다. 그러나 만성폐쇄성 폐질환 환자에서 횡격막 이동거리는 $FEV_1$과 유의한 상관관계를 발견할 수 없어서 초음파를 통한 횡격막 운동검사가 폐기능 평가의 또다른 생리적 지표로 이용될 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Company A, an embedded system manufacturer, provides its products to Company P which is the parent company of Company A. Both companies learned that they needed to find over 4,000 bugs before market release in order to meet the acceptable quality level. Traditionally, they had utilized time-series line graphs as their common performance measurement tool. These graphs compared accumulated numbers of bugs fixed with accumulated numbers of bugs found. Engineers in Company A had been under pressure to improve the process capacity because the line for bugs fixed was always below than the line for bugs found. By using a newly designed Bipolar diagram, engineers in Company A analyzed the process performance. And they were in a position to be more flexible for internal or inter-companies meeting. Authors explain an empirical study of a graphical and practical performance measurement tools relating to mainly the Bipolar diagram. As a result, the Bipolar diagram provides workload monitoring and performance measurement functions in a given timeframe by using the concepts of Optimum Process Line (or band) and Fair Process Capacity Zone.

In order to evaluate a failure behavior of pipe with notch-type wall thinning, the present study performed full-scale pipe tests using the 102mm, Schedule 80 pipe specimen simulated notch- and circular-type thinning defects. The pipe tests were conducted under the conditions of both monotonic and cyclic bending moment at a constant internal pressure of 10 MPa. From the results. of experiment the failure mode, load carrying capacity, deformation ability, and fatigue life of a notch-type wall thinned pipe were investigated, and they were compared with those of a circular-type wall thinned pipe. The failure mode of notched pipe was similar to that of circular-type thinned pipe under the monotonic bending load. Under the cyclic bending load, however, the mode was clearly distinguished with variation in the shape of wall thinning. The load carrying capacity of a pipe containing notch-type wall thinning was about the same or slightly lower than that of a pipe containing circular-type wall thinning when the thinning area was subjected to tensile stress, whereas it was higher than that of a pipe containing circular-type thinning defect when the thinning area was subjected to compressive stress. On the other hand, the deformation ability and fatigue life of a notch-type wall thinned pipe was lower than those of a circular-type wall thinned pipe.

Recently fuel cell is considered to be a new technology that can substitute the ICE(Internal Combustion Engine) as well as overcome environmental issues. In military applications, fuel cell has an unique advantages, which are quietness, namely, stealth. The environmental requirement such as shock and vibration in military application, however, is very severe comparing to civilian demand. Especially, the safety concerning hydrogen storage is the most important problem. Among the candidate methods to store hydrogen, the metal hydride storage is promising method owing to the storage mechanism of chemical absorption of hydrogen to metal hydrides. In this study, the new composition of Ti-Zr type metal hydride(A composition) was suggested and investigated to increase the hydrogen storage capacity. For comparison, the hydrogen charge-discharge properties were investigated with the commercialized Ti-Zr type metal hydride(B composition) using PCT(Pressure-Composition-Temperature) measurement. Also two hydrogen storage cylinders were loaded with each metal hydride and their hydrogen charging and discharging characteristics were investigated. As a result, it was found that the new Ti-Zr type metal hydride has a slightly higher hydrogen storage capacity compared to commercial Ti-Zr type metal hydride.

A real-case incident occurred where a 9-meter-high segment of a pre-fabricated concrete separation wall unexpectedly collapsed. This collapse was triggered by improperly depositing excavated soil against the wall's back, a condition for which the wall segments were not designed to withstand lateral earth pressure, leading to a flexural failure. The event's analysis, integrating technical data and observational insights, revealed that internal forces at the time of failure significantly exceeded the wall's capacity per standard design. The Lattice Discrete Particle Model (LDPM) further replicates the collapse mechanism. Our approach involved defining various parameter sets to replicate the concrete's mechanical response, consistent with the tested compressive strength. Subsequent stages included calibrating these parameters across different scales and conducting full-scale simulations. These simulations carried out with various parameter sets, were thoroughly analyzed to identify the most representative failure mechanism. We developed an equation from this analysis that quickly correlates the parameters to the wall's load-carry capacity, aligned with the simulation. Additionally, our study examined the wall's post-peak behavior, extending up to the point of collapse. This aspect of the analysis was essential for preventing failure, providing crucial time for intervention, and potentially averting a disaster. However, the reinforced concrete residual state is far from being fully understood. While it's impractical for engineers to depend on the residual state of structural elements during the design phase, comprehending this state is essential for effective response and mitigation strategies after initial failure occurs.

물 냉각기의 응축기와 증발기의 형상(길이, 관 직경, 관수, 통로 수)은 설비비용에 관련된 열전달 면적과 운전비용에 관련된 압력강하와의 조화로 결정될 수 있다. 물 냉각기 (냉동사이클)의 쉘-관 형상의 열교환기(응축기와 증발기)의 관 내부로 물이 통과할 때, 주어진 냉각부하와 요구조건을 만족하면서, 물 압력강하가 작은 설계조건에 초점을 맞추었다. 상업용 강화튜브의 사용과 상용 소프트웨어를 사용한 해석결과의 검증으로 실용성과 신뢰성 확보를 도모하였다. 해석결과, 관 통로 수를 적게, 관 직경을 크게, 관 수를 많게 선정하면, 관 길이를 짧게 하므로 물측 압력강하를 줄일 수 있었다. 그러나, 관수가 특정값보다 많을 때는 오히려 작은 관 직경을 사용하는 것이, 내부열저항의 감소로 인한 단위 길이 당 총열저항 감소 때문에, 관 길이를 짧게 하여 설비비용을 줄일 수 있었다.

Estimates of wind-induced wind effects on tall buildings are based largely on 1980s technology. Such estimates can vary significantly depending upon the wind engineering laboratory producing them. We describe an efficient database-assisted design (DAD) procedure allowing the realistic estimation of wind-induced internal forces with any mean recurrence interval in any individual member. The procedure makes use of (a) time series of directional aerodynamic pressures recorded simultaneously at typically hundreds of ports on the building surface, (b) directional wind climatological data, (c) micrometeorological modeling of ratios between wind speeds in open exposure and mean wind speeds at the top of the building, (d) a physically and probabilistically realistic aerodynamic/climatological interfacing model, and (e) modern computational resources for calculating internal forces and demand-to-capacity ratios for each member being designed. The procedure is applicable to tall buildings not susceptible to aeroelastic effects, and with sufficiently large dimensions to allow placement of the requisite pressure measurement tubes. The paper then addresses the issue of accounting explicitly for uncertainties in the factors that determine wind effects. Unlike for routine structures, for which simplifications inherent in standard provisions are acceptable, for tall buildings these uncertainties need to be considered with care, since over-simplified reliability estimates could defeat the purpose of ad-hoc wind tunnel tests.

The purpose of this study was to estimate that the relations of weathering speed and shear strength of granite soil by tracing the weathering depth of granite soil from the very moment of its cutting. The results obtained this follows ; 1) The relationships among Nc, Li and CEC, Li>6%, CEC>14 corresponds to Nc=2~30, and 4%${\phi}$)increases at a standard pressure. 3) And Nc=0~50 corresponds to $27{\sim}50^{\circ}$ of internal fiction angle and to 12~49kPa of cohesion. That is to say, internal friction angle(${\phi}$)corresponds better than cohesion(c). In conclusion, this study suggests that in simplified dynamic cone penetration test a penetration boundary line of 5 centimeters is decided at around Li=4%, CEC=3(meq/100g) which is classified as a completely weathering soil. It also appears that CEC increases as Li increases while Nc decreases.
