  • Adenovirus which is an important infectious viral agent in respiratory and alimentary tract was investigated in Pusan, 1999. Fifteen cases of adenovirus were detected from stools and throat swabs of suspected patients. Two cases of enteric adenovirus were detected from a 5 years old boy and a 6-month-old boy. Thirteen cases of respiratory adenoviruses were detected from children aged under 10 years old and one adult. From respiratory specimens, 1 case of adenovirus type 2, 1 case of type 5, and 11 cases of type 3 were found. Enterotype 41 was detected from fecal preparations. Adenoviruses appeared mostly during winter months, January, February and December. Adenovirus showed a slowly progressive cytopathic effect on HEp-2 cells, Vero cells and BGM cells at 37$^{\circ}C$, in a 5-7% $CO_{2}$ incubation. An electron microscopic observation exhibited non-enveloped icosahedron with a diameter of 70nm. No significant differences on cytopathic effect and morphological features have been found from specimens of either alimentary tract or respiratory secretions.

  • With the adoption of welded joints rather than bolted joints, we investigate the fatigue strength and the fatigue crack initiation of U-type trough rib and welded specimen with misalignment in a steel deck plate. The stress concentration factor of welded specimens with a misalignment is also verified by a finite element method. The main conclusions obtained from this study are as follows Experimental results of full-scaled U-type trough rib models have indicated that fatigue life depends on misalignments of welded joints in steel deck plate ; The more misalignments are, the less the fatigue life is. It has also shown that fatigue crack propagates from the welded root to the bead surface. We have also obtained the same results from both the fatigue test of welded specimens with a misalignment and the stress analysis of a finite element method.

  • This paper presents an experimental study on socket base connections of precast reinforced concrete columns. The main purpose of this study is to determine socket base connection which has the closest behavior to monolithic casted column-base joints. For this purpose, six specimens having different column-socket base connection details were tested under cyclic loading. For each test, strength, stiffness, ductility and drift ratios of the specimens were determined. Test results indicated that a suggested connection type is 10%-30% stronger than the other type of connections under lateral loading. The welded connection (PC-5) had better lateral load carrying capacity and ductility. On the other hand, performance of standard connection (PC-1) which is commonly used in construction was weaker than other connections. Thus, decision of connection type should be referred not only performance but also applicability.

  • This study represents the recent laboratory results from cathodic protection (CP) system with the use of sacrificial anodes at different environmental conditions (temperature of $10^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$). Specimens were slab type with a dimension of $500mm{\times}50mm{\times}100mm$, and concrete cover thickness were 25mm. Zinc mesh and/or bulk type anodes were installed at the center of specimen to confirm the distance that CP system has influences on the specimen to distribute uniform CP current to rebar. Two different kinds of temperature condition were applied to verify the effect of temperature. Experiments were conducted for 60 days, and the distribution of potential and current that supplied from anode to rebar was measured. From the results, CP potential was varied with time, and temperature played an important role in CP potential variations. Current was also changed with time, and current distribution could be improved by installing additional bulk type anode.

  • Ten reinforced concrete rigid frames and infilled shear wall frames were tested under both vertical and cyclic loadings. Experiments were carried out to evaluate the structural performance of such test specimens, such as the hysteretic behavior, the maximum horizontal strength, crack propagation, and ductility etc. under load reversals. All the specimens were modeledin one-third scale size. Based on the test results reported in this study, the follwing conclusions can be made. For the rigid frame type and the fully rigid babel type shear wall specimens, the hysteresis diagrams indicate that the degradations of their strength were developed slowly beyond maximum carrying capacity. It was shown that when the hoop reinforcement ratio became higher, the energy dissipation capacity became larger and the failure mode became ductile. The specimens designed by the less hoop reinforcement for the fully rigid babel type shear wall, were mainly failed due to diagonal crack in comparison with the specimens designed by the larger hoop reinforcement ratio. Maximum horizontal resisting moment capacity of speciment designed by the fully rigid babel shear wall were increased by 5.47~7.95 times in comparison with the rigid frame type.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of amount of cantilever in intra-crown according to implant fixture position on mechanical strength of internal conical joint type implant. Materials and Methods : Internal conical joint type implant fixture, abutment screw, abutment was connected and gold alloy prostheses were fabricated and cemented on abutment. For fatigue fracture test, the specimens were loaded to the 350 N, 2,000,000 cycle on 3, 4, 5, and 6 mm off-center of gold alloy prostheses. The fracture pattern of implant component was observed. Results : No fatigue fracture found on 3 and 4 mm group. But initial crack pattern found on 3 specimens of 4 mm group. Fatigue fracture found on all specimens of 5 mm group. But complete fracture was not observed. One specimen of 6 mm group fracture completely. Implant fixture fracture wax not observed. Conclusion : The mechanical failure of implant prostheses increased with the loading area farther from center of implant fixture. To reduce mechanical problem of internal joint type implant, surgical and prosthetic consideration is needed.

  • The effect of neonicochid type wood preservatives on adhesive properties of resorcinol-formaldehyde resin for laminated wood manufacture was examined. By the previous studies, it was verified that the neonicochid type preservative has a high termite-proofing and anti-mold effectiveness. Commercial ACQ (ammoniacal copper quaternary compounds) and CUAZ (copper azol compounds) were used as comparison preservatives of effects on adhesive properties. The wood specimens used japanese red pine (Pinus densifrora) after application with preservatives and then bonded with resorcinol-formaldehyde resin. Adhesive properties were evaluated by shearing strength of adhesive bond and wood failure to dry condition or after accelerated aging test. Of all laminated woods, the wood specimens spread with ACQ or CUAZ showed the lowest shearing strength of adhesive bond. We estimated that the decrease of shearing strength was caused by copper in the ACQ or CUAZ preservatives. On the application of the neonicochid type preservatives, the wood specimens showed the highest shearing strength even after accelerated aging test. From these results, it is concluded that the copper-free neonicochid type preservative not affected the curing of resorcinol-formaldehyde resin.
