In this paper, we report the effects of temperature on the deterioration of graphite-based negative electrodes during the longterm cycling of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). After cycling 75 Ah pouch-type LIB full cells at temperatures of 45℃ (45-Cell) and 25℃ (25-Cell) until their end of life, we expected to observe changes in the negative electrode according to the temperature. The thickness of the negative electrode of the cell was greater after cycling; that of the electrode of 45-Cell (144 ㎛) was greater than that of the electrode of 25-Cell (109 ㎛). Cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy analysis confirmed that by-products caused this increase in the thickness of the negative electrode. The by-products that formed on the surface of the negative electrode during cycling increased the surface resistance and decreased the electrical conductivity. Voltage profiles showed that the negative electrode of 25-Cell exhibited an 84.7% retention of the initial capacity, whereas that of 45-Cell showed only a 70.3% retention. The results of this study are expected to be relevant to future analyses of the deterioration characteristics of the negative electrode and battery deterioration mechanisms, and are also expected to provide basic data for advanced battery design.

The Salt attack is one of the primary factors that cause the deterioration of durability in steel reinforced concrete structure. And to depreciate the deterioration from the Salt attack in concrete structure, pozzolanic materials are used widely in recent years. In this study, experiments about the resistance of chloride infiltration of concrete according to the replacement rations of Activated Hwangtoh and various pozzolanic materials(silica fume, fly ash, blast furnace slag and non Activated/Activated Hwangtoh) are performed and the results of this study were shown as follows; 1) As the replacement ratios of Activated Hwangtoh were getting higher, the strength of concrete was increased and in case of various pozzolanic materials, strength of Activated Hwangtoh in specimen was better than that of fly ash, blast furnace slag and non Activated Hwangtoh. 2) As the replacement ratios of Activated Hwangtoh were getting higher, the resistance of chloride infiltration of concrete was increased and in case of various pozzolanic materials, silica fume is better than any other pozzolanic materials and Activated Hwangtoh was better than that of fly ash, blast furnace slag and non Activated Hwangtoh.

급증하고 있는 수요에 따른 고전력을 생산하기 위하여 발전소에서는 이에 대응하는 시설장비를 운영해야 한다. 규모는 점차 커지고, 기능이 다양해지고 있다. 발전소에서 불의가 사고가 발생하면 장비가 지장을 받게 되고, 막대한 경제적 손실 및 장애를 초래하게 된다. 사고 발생의 원인 중의 하나로서 케이블의 두 도체를 전기적으로 분리시키는 유전체의 기능이 약화되는 것이다. 케이블에 의한 사고를 미연에 방지하기 위하여 동작 상태를 감시 확인하여야 한다. 우리는 절연저항을 측정하기 위한 장비를 개발하여 서부발전(주)의 현장에 설치하여 운용 중이다. 변압기의 2차 측 와이(Y) 결선으로 연결된 모선은 생산된 전기를 외부 장치에 전송한다. 우리가 개발한 장비는 모선과 on/off 되는 케이블의 절연 저항을 측정하는 장비이다. 우리는 이 논문에서 하드웨어 구성을 위주로 우리가 개발한 장비를 소개한다.

본 연구는 농도조건을 달리한 시험용액에 침지한 모르타르의 내구성을 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 3종류 시멘트 모르타르를 제조한 후, ${SO_4}^{2-}$ 이온의 농도가 4225, 8450, 16900 및 33800 ppm인 4종류 황산나트륨 용액에 540일간 침지하였으며, 침지재령별 압축강도 및 선형팽창을 측정하므로써 모르타르의 황산염침식 저항성을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 실험결과에 의하면, 고농도 황산나트륨 용액에 침지한 모르타르 공시체가 가장 심한 성능저하 현상을 나타내었다. 특히, 고농도 환경에서 모르타르의 팽창 특성은 사용된 시멘트의 $C_3A$량과 직접적인 관련이 있었으며, GGBS를 대체한 SGC 모르타르는 조직구조의 투수성이 상대적으로 낮은 탓으로 인하여 시험용액의 농도조건에 관계없이 우수한 황산염침식 저항성을 나타내었다.

콘크리트는 대표적인 건설재료로서 지난 19세기 후반 이후 각종 구조물의 축조에 활용되고 있다. 콘크리트는 일반적으로 적절한 설계 및 시공 규정을 준수한다면 내구성을 확보하는 것으로 인식되었으나, 구조물의 사용 과정 중에 겪게 되는 각 종 외적 작용으로 인해 수명단축 및 성능저하 현상이 빈번히 나타나고 있으며 더욱이 노후화에 따른 콘크리트 구조물의 성능 저하는 억제할 수 없으며 결국 콘크리트 구조물의 유지관리 측면에서 보수 및 보강은 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 보수 및 보강공법의 성능을 개선하고자 콘크리트 표면의 강화 및 특히 내화학 성능의 향상을 위하여 개발되어진 내화학성적층보강공법 (Chemical Resistance of Laminating Reinforcement Method : CRM)을 적용하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 시험체에 대한 다양한 내구성 시험을 통하여 일반적인 보수 및 보강공법을 적용한 시험체 와의 비교분석을 통하여 결과를 도출하였으며 시험결과, 기존 보수 및 보강공법보다 CRM을 적용한 콘크리트 시험체의 내구성능이 향상되었는데 이는 에폭시계의 내산섬유보강 및 2중의 섬유계의 보강시트로 인한 적층효과로 판단된다.

Micoromorphological alterations of sea-waterlogged woods by marinemicro-oragnisms were investigated by the light and scanning electron microscopy as a part of serial investigations on the shipwrecked materials which were excavated at the sea shore of Wando-Kun, southern coast of Korea in 1984.Deterioration of sea-waterlogged wood by marine microorganisms were varied with the wood species. The degree of deterioration even in the same wood specieswas different according to the part where it was in mud of sea-water. However, the resistance of Torreya nucifera over the marine organisms was marked. Deterioration in cell wall may be classified into three types; thinning of cell wall, separation of secondary wall from compound middle lamella and tunneling of cell wall. Thinning and separation were frequently observed, while the tunneling was rare. Among the wood cell elements of hardwoods, vessel wall was the least deteriorated. The difference degree of degradation of cell wall constituents and the accumulation of inorganic substances in cell lumen indicate that some factors to be considered for the conservation treatment were discussed. The kinds of marine microorganisms invading and/or inhabiting in wrecked wooden ship were also discussed.

This paper presents the findings on the sulfate resistance of mortar specimens with or without alkali-free accelerator exposed to sodium sulfate solution for 270 days. Test results confirms a negative effect of alkali-free accelerator on the sulfate deterioration. Additionally, the influences of exposure concentration and temperature of sulfate solution on expansion were investigated. Especially, at a high concentration of solution a significant expansion of mortar specimens with alkali-free accelerator was observed. Further, low temperature also promoted the deterioration of the cement system due to sulfate attack.

This paper develops practical models and methods for the assessment of safety and rating of damaged and/or deteriorated bridges by incorporating a system identification technique for the explicit inclusion of the degree of deterioration or damage and of the actual bridge response. And, based on the proposed model, reliability-based rating methods are proposed as LRFR(Load and Resistance Factor Rating) and system reliability-index rating criteria. The proposed limit state model explicitly accounts for the degree of deterioration or damage in terms of the damage and response factors. The damage factor in the paper is proposed as the ratio of the current stiffness to the intact stiffness. Based on the observation and the results of applications to existing bridges, it may be concluded that the proposed rating models, which explicitly account for the uncertainties and the effects of degree of deterioration or damage based on the system identification technique, provide more realistic and consistent safety-assessment and capacity-rating.

By applying the newly developed techniques of polymer impregnated concrete (PIC) severely deteriorated and low quality concrete can be restored to an adequate structural material. Early deterioration of concrete causes severe problems for bridge deck concrete, pavement concrete for highways and airports, hydraulic structures and buiilding structures. Deterioration has its orgin in cracks on concrete surface, scaling of spalling due to freezing and thawing, neutralization of concrete, penetrations of water, salt, and calcium chloride. The objective of this study is to develope the new surface impregnants and strengthening techniques for them. It is found that the new impregnants and strengthening techniques developed in this study can retian the charecteristics of the existing concrete and decrease deterioration, and also increase durability, chemical resistance, strength, stiffness and ductility of the existing concrete.

Civil engineering infrastructure is aging and requires cost-effective maintenance strategies to enable infrastructure systems operate reliably and sustainably. This paper presents an approach for determining risk-cost balanced repair strategy of corrosion damaged reinforced concrete structures with consideration of uncertainty in structural resistance deterioration. On the basis of analytical models of cover concrete cracking evolution and bond strength degradation due to reinforcement corrosion, the effect of reinforcement corrosion on residual load carrying capacity of corroded reinforced concrete structures is investigated. A stochastic deterioration model based on gamma process is adopted to evaluate the probability of failure of structural bearing capacity over the lifetime. Optimal repair planning and maintenance strategies during the service life are determined by balancing the cost for maintenance and the risk of structural failure. The method proposed in this study is then demonstrated by numerical investigations for a concrete structure subjected to reinforcement corrosion. The obtained results show that the proposed method can provide a risk cost optimised repair schedule during the service life of corroded concrete structures.
