A single plate shear connection, or shear tab, is a very popular shear connection due to its merit in ease of construction and material economy. However, problems in understanding the connection behavior, both in terms of strength and ductility, have been well-documented. Suggestions or design model for single plate connections in AISC Design Manual have been altered several times, with the latest edition settling down to giving designers pre-calculated design strength tables if the connection details agree with given configurations. Results from many full-scale tests and finite element models in the past suggest that shear strength of a bolt group in single plate shear connections might be affected by yield strength of plate material; therefore, this research was aimed to investigate and clarify effects of plate yield strength and thickness on shear strength of the bolt group in the connections, including the validity of using a plate thickness/bolt diameter ratio ($t_p/d_b$) in design, by using finite element models. More than 20 models have been created by using ABAQUS program with 19.0- and 22.2-mm A325N bolts and A36 and Gr.50 plates with various thicknesses. Results demonstrated that increase of plate thickness or plate yield strength, with the $t_p/d_b$ ratio remained intact, could significantly reduce shear strength of the bolt group in the connection as much as 15 percent. Results also confirmed that the $t_p/d_b$ ratio is a valid indicator to be used for guaranteeing strength sufficiency. Because the actual ratio recommended by AISC Design Manual is $t_p/d_b$ + 1.6 (mm) for connections with a number of bolts less than six and plate yield strength in construction is normally higher than the nominal value used in design, it is proposed that shear strength of a bolt group in single plate connections with a number of bolts equal or greater than seven be reduced by 15 percent and the $t_p/d_b$ ratio be limited to 0.500.

본 연구에서는 폐기물 매립지에서 점토차수재에 대한 폐기물 침출수의 영향에 대해 알아보고자 모래-벤토나이트 혼합토를 사용하여 인장시험, 비중계분석, 균열패턴 관찰을 실시하였다. 인장시험 결과, pH 9의 혼합수를 사용하여 다짐한 공시체의 인장강도는 pH 3, pH6의 혼합수로 다짐한 공시체의 인장강도보다 작게 나타났다. 다시 말해, 인장강도는 높은 pH에서 감소하며 이것은 pH가 증가할수록 면모화현상이 감소하기 때문이다. 또한 비중계분석에서는 pH가 증가할수록 토립자의 침강속도가 느려져 세립자의 함유량이 높게 나타났다. 이것은 pH가 증가함에 따라 점토 입자의 면모구조가 감소하기 때문이며 이러한 경향은 벤토나이트의 함유량이 증가할수록 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 균열패턴 관찰 결과에서도 pH의 영향을 확인할 수 있었다.

Long-span suspension bridges have tunnel anchor systems to maintain stable cables. More investigations are required to determine how closely tunnel excavation beneath the tunnel anchor impacts the stability of the tunnel anchor. In order to investigate the impact of the adjacent tunnel's excavation on the stability of the tunnel anchor, a large-span suspension bridge tunnel anchor is utilised as an example in a three-dimensional numerical simulation approach. In order to explore the deformation control mechanism, orthogonal tests are employed to pinpoint the major impacting elements. The construction of an advanced pipe shed, strengthening the primary support. Moreover, according to the findings the grouting reinforcement of the surrounding rock, have a significant control effect on the settlement of the tunnel vault and plug body. However, reducing the lag distance of the secondary lining does not have such big influence. The greatest way to control tunnel vault settling is to use the grout reinforcement, which increases the bearing capacity and strength of the surrounding rock. This greatly minimizes the size of the tunnel excavation disturbance area. Advanced pipe shed can not only increase the surrounding rock's bearing capacity at the pipe shed, but can also prevent the tunnel vault from connecting with the disturbance area at the bottom of the anchorage tunnel, reduce the range of shear failure area outside the anchorage tunnel, and have the best impact on the plug body's settlement control.

2011년부터 시행될 2단계 수질 오염 총량제에 대비하여 고효율 인 제거 공정 개발이 필요하며 본 연구에서는 생물학적 처리와 화학적 응집처리를 조합한 공정이 대안으로 검토되었다. 2세대 응집제로서 최근 많이 사용되고 있는 PAC(poly aluminum chloride)를 이용하고 실제 하수종말처리장 A2O 공정의 호기조 유출수를 시료로 하여 인 응집 특성 및 적정 조건, 효율 향상 방안 등에 대해 실험연구를 수행하였다. 먼저 적정 PAC 투입 농도는 부피기준으로 30 ppm, mol비로는 2.81 mol Al/mol P인 것으로 나타났다. 단순침전에서 17.2%에 불과하던 용존성 인의 제거율이 PAC 10 ppm 투입으로 30.3%까지 증가하였으며, 20 ppm에서 30 ppm으로 PAC 투입량을 증가시킬 때 49.3%에서 88.4%로 제거율을 크게 향상시킬 수 있었다. 이때 총 인의 제거율은 92.4%, 유출수 총 인 농도는 0.3 mg/L로 총량제에 부합하는 방류수 수질을 달성할 수 있었다. 적정한 응집시간은 4분, 침전시간은 20분, 초기 pH는 7로 나타났고 원시료 (pH 7.0)는 별도의 pH 조절 없이 응집 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. pH 7 조건에서 용존성 인의 제거가 크게 향상되었으며, 추가적인 확인 연구가 필요하나, 이는 인의 경우 $Al(OH)_3$에 의한 sweep floc formation이 주요 제거 기작임을 의미하였다. 2차침전조 유입부에 PAC를 투입하여 2차침전조를 응집침전조로 활용하는 방안과 별도의 응집침전조를 2차침전조 후단에 설치하여 PAC를 투입하는 방안을 비교한 결과 PAC 투입량 대비 인 제거효율 증진 관점에서 후자가 바람직한 것으로 조사되었다. 이때 처리수의 인 농도는 0.18 mg/L, 제거율은 95.4%로 향상시킬 수 있었다. 끝으로 응집 처리수를 반송할 경우 인 제거 효율을 높일 수 있었으며 적정 반송율은 0.3인 것으로 분석되었다.

This study was conducted to remove the dyes in dye wastewater by the chemical precipitation or biological treatment which are one of the main pollutants in dye wastewater. In order to remove the disperse dyes effectively in aqueous solution by chemical precipitation process, coagulation and flocculation tests were carried out using several coagulants on various reaction conditions. It was found that the Ferrous sulfate was the most effective coagulant for the removal of disperse dye(DB79), and we could get the best result for the removal of disperse dye(DB56) in the aspects of TOC removal efficiency and sludge yield. When the Ferrous sulfate dosage was 800mg/l, the sludge settling velocity was very fast$(SV_{30}=4\%)$, and the color was effectively removed in the disperse dye(DB79) solution. Although the color removal was ineffective when the Alum was used as a coagulant, the sludge yield decreased in comparison with the Ferrous sulfate or the Ferric sulfate being used in the disperse dye(DB56) solution. In order to decolorize disperse dye(DR17) by using biological treatment process, a strain which has potential ability to degrade disperse dyes was isolated from natural system. The optimal culture conditions of temperature and pH were found to be $40^{\circ}C\;and\;8.5\~9$, respectively. When yeast extract was mixed with polypeptone at the mixing ratio of 1:1 as a nitrogen source, decolorization efficiency was highest$(93\%)$ among the nitrogen sources. The strain screened was excellent to adjust to pH, and it seems to have ability to control pH needed to growth. The optimal culture conditions in concentration of $MgSO_{4.}\cdot7H_2O\;and\;KH_2PO_4$ were $0.1\%(w/v)\;and\;0.2\%(w/v)$, respectively. Strains degrading and decolorizing reactive dyes, RB198 and RR141 which were isolated from water system, are named RBK1 and RRK. And the cell growth characteristics of RBK1 and RRK were investigated. The optimal culture conditions of temperature and pH were found to be 30t' and 7.0, respectively. Optimum nitrogen source was peptone, and it was found that decolorization efficiencies by strains RBK1 and RRK, were $85\%\;and\;62\%$, respectively, with introduction of 4,000mg/l of peptone. In the case of RBK1, color removal efficiencies were very high below 400mg/l. Decolorization efficiency was over $90\%$ at 20hours of culture time. The Color degradation ability of RRK was lower than that of RBK1.

이 연구에서는 하수 처리 시 발생하는 잉여슬러지의 탈수성을 증대시켜 탈수 후 최종슬러지 케이크를 감소시키기 위해 초음파 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 이번 연구에서 사용된 슬러지는 하수처리장에서 직접 채취한 탈수 전 잉여슬러지이며 여기에 초음파 조사시간과 조사강도를 달리 가하여 탈수성 변형특성을 고찰하였다. 실내외 실험을 동시에 수행하였으며 각각 용량이 다른 세 개(7리터, 1톤, 7톤)의 처리조를 제작 활용하였다. 초음파 처리 시간과 처리강도에 따라 탈수성 및 감량화 판단 인자로 사용되는 CST와 점도의 변화를 측정하였다. 연구결과 초음파 조사시간이 길어질수록 원 시료의 CST가 증가하는 경향을 보였으나 조사한 슬러지에 응집제를 첨가할 경우 도리어 초음파 강도와 조사시간에 따른 CST가 아주 낮게 최고점의 20%까지 측정되었다. 초음파에 의한 점도 변화는 최고점의 40%까지 감소하였다. 또한 원심력에 따른 슬러지의 침하를 분석하였는데 초음파를 가하고 응집제를 첨가한 슬러지의 초기 침하속도가 더 빠르며, 최종침하량에도 더 빨리 도달한 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과 초음파 조사시간과 초음파 강도가 탈수성에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며 연구결과를 현장에 도입할 경우 잉여슬러지의 탈수능 향상과 최종 탈수케이크 감량화에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 가능성 평가를 위하여 대형 처리조를 처리장에 설치 운영하여 탈수케이크의 CST 및 함수율 변화를 고찰하였으며 실험실과 유사한 결과(최고 50% 감소)를 도출하였다.

To predict changes in the marine environment of the Beolgyo Stream Estuary in Jeonnam Province, South Korea, where cohesive tidal flats cover a broad area and a large bridge is under construction, this study conducted numerical simulations involving tidal flow and cohesive sediment transport. A wetting and drying (WAD) technique for tidal flats from the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) was applied to a large-scale-grid hydrodynamic module capable of evaluating the flow resistance of structures. Derivation of the eddy viscosity coefficient for wakes created by structures was accomplished through the explicit use of shear velocity and Chezy's average velocity. Furthermore, various field observations, including of tide, tidal flow, suspended sediment concentrations, bottom sediments, and water depth, were performed to verify the model and obtain input data for it. In particular, geologic parameters related to the evaluation of settling velocity and critical shear stresses for erosion and deposition were observed, and numerical tests for the representation of suspended sediment concentrations were performed to determine proper values for the empirical coefficients in the sediment transport module. According to the simulation results, the velocity variation was particularly prominent around the piers in the tidal channel. Erosion occurred mainly along the tidal channels near the piers, where bridge structures reduced the flow cross section, creating strong flow. In contrast, in the rear area of the structure, where the flow was relatively weak due to the formation of eddies, deposition and moderated erosion were predicted. In estuaries and coastal waters, changes in the flow environment caused by artificial structures can produce changes in the sedimentary environment, which in turn can affect the local marine ecosystem. The numerical model proposed in this study will enable systematic prediction of changes to flow and sedimentary environments caused by the construction of artificial structures.

Purpose - With the increase in fervor to purchase luxury brands, new social problems have arisen, such as excessive preoccupation with luxury brands and high preference for forged luxury goods. Therefore, the issues related to luxury brands, termed "Luxury Syndrome," have emerged as an area of great interest for researchers and practitioners. However, previous studies neglect to categorize this preference for luxury brands. Therefore, this study aims to identify the different purchasing behaviors of consumers using the types of luxury brands preferences as parameters. Research design, data, and methodology - This study arranges a causal relationship model assuming that purchase behaviors positively (+) affect typified preference for luxury brands and purchase intentions. We administered a questionnaire survey to the purchasers who bought luxury brands from department stores to secure additional data necessary to verify the hypotheses in this study. We then processed the data using SPSS 19.0. We further analyzed the basic data using frequency and descriptive statistical analysis, and verified the measurement tools through feasibility and reliability analyses. Moreover, this study uses multiple regression analysis to verify the hypotheses. Further, this study tests the path effect between luxury brand purchase attitude and purchase behavior, with non-intrinsic preference and intrinsic preference as the mediating variables. Results - Based on the results, the impact of tendencies of conspicuous consumption and self-monitoring on non-intrinsic preference was significantly positive (+), while the impact of tendencies of pursuit of a reference group, conspicuous consumption, and self-monitoring on intrinsic preference and purchase intentions was significantly positive (+). Further, non-intrinsic and intrinsic preferences positively (+) influence purchase intentions and the impact of non-intrinsic preference took an absolute portion. However, the tendency of dependence on brands negatively (-) impacts purchase intentions. The results showed that self-monitoring and conspicuous consumption tendencies have greater effect on purchase intention, which is mediated by non-intrinsic preference. In contrast, reference group following tendency has a greater effect on purchase intention, which is mediated by intrinsic preference. Conclusions - Based on the results, the study verifies that the consumption of luxury brands in Korea has not yet entered the settling period. The tendency for conspicuous consumption and the tendency for pursuit of the reference group were relatively important aspects for the consumers who prefer luxury brands non-intrinsically and intrinsically, respectively. Especially, it was found that the purchase intentions for forged brands originate from the tendency to depend on brands. Based on these findings, this study suggests the measures to develop and mature the luxury brands market, and reinforce marketing performance at the three levels, that is, government, distributors, and manufacturers. The luxury brands manufacturers should devote themselves to the production and design of products to catch the attention of mature consumers of luxury brands. The luxury brands distributors should then raise the level of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) for opinion leaders. Finally, the Government should prepare effective policies for the development of luxury brands and provide a variety of economic support.
