  • Mud tanks used for storing and supplying mud in mud supply systems are essential to secure structural stability according to the mud loads inside the tank. In terms of structural stability of the mud tank can be ensured by increasing the thickness of the structure. However, increasing the thickness may cause a problem of increasing production costs. In addition, this increases the weight of the tank, which can cause problems with the trailer loading weight limitation during transportation. To satisfy both these problems and structural stability, the mud tank should be optimally designed. Therefore, this study conducted an optimum design in consideration of the load of the mud tank through the structural analysis and response surface optimization method in ANSYS.

  • Although mud shrimp (Upogebia Major) provides benefits on the tidal flat ecosystem, it is causing the mass mortality of Manila clam (Tapes philippinarum) and large economic loss to the aquaculture farmer due to spreading in the entire coastal clam farm area of the West Sea of Korea. In this study, a mud shrimp blocking box for cultivating clam was tested to prevent the mud shrimp from invading the habitat of the clam. To determine the effect of the blocking box, the growth characteristics of the clams under various culture conditions were investigated. The shell length, total weight, condition index, the presence of mud shrimp in the box, and the soil decay in the box were examined according to whether the clams were raised in the box or in natural state, whether the box is covered with a net or not and the gap size of the box. As a result, no significant differences in shell length, total weight, and condition index were found between the clam grown in the box and the natural state (P>0.05) without any evidence of invading of mud shrimp to the box. In addition, the soil inside the box was in good condition, not decayed. Therefore, using the mud shrimp blocking box, mud shrimp can be prevented from propagating to the habitat of the clam, thereby contributing to the normal production of the clam and thus to restoring the clam farming.

  • The railroad transportation system has more advantages over other transportation systems in terms of low cost, safety and mass transportation The development in economy and social environments lead to the increase of the transportation between cities. As a result, the increased capacity of transportation system is required and maintenance of transportation facilities becomes more important, In the railroad system mud-pumping is one of the troubles to cause distortion of rails and progressive disrupture of subgrade. h this study, SASW measurements were performed to investigate stiffness structures at the sites with mud-pumping and without mud-pumping, Comparison of the stiffness structures revealed the mechanism of mud-pumping and provided information to choose measures for the mud-pumping.

  • In the early stage of operation of KTX, passengers complained of the excessive cabin noise as the passes the tunnel. The noise is caused partly by wheel-rail contact and partly by airflow around the carbody. In this study, to reduce the cabin noise, the effect of the mud-flaps located between the cars is investigated. A series of tests was conducted to clarify the influences of the type and length of mud-flap, and train speed on the cabin noise. The optimum length of mud-flap was found. The shedding vortices around the mud-flap is thought to be the cause of the aerodynamic noise. Strouhal number and the resonant shedding frequency around the mud-flap correlated well with the cabin noise level.

  • In this paper, we propose a new Genetic Algorithm(GA)-based Multiuser Detector(MUD), and its performance is evaluated by computer simulation compared to both the optimum MUD and the Hopfield neural network(NN) -based MUD when the near-far problem exists. From the results of comprehensive simulation, it is shown that the proposed MUD in this paper can guarantee a close BER performance compared to both the optimum MUD and the Hopfield NN MUD with a considerable reduced complexity under the near-far condition. Furthermore, a more performance improvement than the Hopfield W MUD can be expected when the near-far problem does not exist.

  • Color concrete is produced by adding white portland cement and coloring agent. In Korea, colorant added to color concrete is expensive, durability evaluation in external environment is not verified and there is a tendency to avoid color concrete pouring. Red mud with a water content of 50% was prepared in liquid form using appropriate mixing water and additives for recycling as a coloring agent, the liquefied red mud manufactured was intended to show the possibility of using color concrete. In this paper, the application of red mud as an industrial by - product as a coloring agent for color concrete was investigated for the practical use of liquefied red mud by liquefying red mud and producing retaining wall block. As a result, it was found that all of the specifications stipulated in SPS-KCIC0001-0703 are satisfied.

  • For this study, alkali-activated slag red-mud pavement is manufactured to examine the usability of red-mud as a recycling material in the construction industry. In the compaction curve in terms of the replacement ratio of red mud by binder type, the dry density changed gradually depending on the water content, which implies that there is no distinct difference in compaction according to the replacement ratio of red mud. The compressive strength at 28 days was observed to be 18.9~27.0MPa in ASS, and 18.4~28.8MPa in OPC, showing a similar level between the specimens.

  • Boryeong Mud Festival has become a representative local festival that both domestic and foreign tourists can enjoy together. In addition, it is one of the usual hands-on marine festivals in Korea that can be enjoyed with one mind at the Boryeong Mud Festival, regardless of race, age, and language. This study explored the overall perception and trends of the Boryeong Mud Festival using big data extracted online from the Boryeong Mud Festival. First, keywords such as Chungnam, hosting, summer, reporter, experience, opening ceremony, performance, operation, news, tourist, opening, event, and festival were frequently exposed online. Second, due to centrality analysis, the centrality of festival experience programs and performances, opening ceremonies, and Boryeong mayor was high. Third, due to the CONCOR analysis, five clusters of meaningful keywords related to the Boryeong Mud Festival were formed.

  • In this study, red mud with low recyclability was manufactured as liquid red mud, neutralized with sulfuric acid and nitric acid, and then added to cement paste to conduct research on physical and chemical properties. As a result, liquid red mud-added cement paste neutralized with sulfuric acid and nitric acid showed higher compressive strength after one day than cement paste with plain and non-neutralized liquid red mud. This indicates that nitric acid and sulfuric acid neutralization can increase initial strength.
