Conventional strain gauge can measure about 15~20% elongation. However, when the steel are ruptured, the strain at the necking region can be much higher than the measurement capacity of the conventional strain gauge. To measure the maximum strain at the necking region a new measurement technique should be developed. In this study, for this purpose image processing method for measuring 2-D strain distribution of tensile specimen of steel is proposed.

In this study, measurement temperature in the bridges was compared with temperature proposed by Korean design code. In addition, the structural analysis was performed in order to comparing the stress by measured thermal load and the stress by design thermal load. As a result, the stress that applied measurement temperature was evaluated larger than the stress that applied temperature proposed by Korean design code.

Soil chemical properties in paddy fields were found to be varied depending upon different cultivation methods such as environmentally-friendly, conventional, and two-crop farming systems and different topographical regions, namely plain, middle mountainous, and reclaimed land regions. Overall soil pH was found to be in optimal range (pH 5.5~6.5) for rice cultivation, except with conventional cultiva-tion fields of the reclaimed lands in Jeonnam province. Electrical conductivity (EC) was relatively higher in the two-crop cultivation fields than in others. How-ever, the concentrations of available phosphate as P2O5 were exceptionally higher in the two-crop farming fields, thus in submerged paddy condition the phosphate could be released into streams and rivers. Soil organic matter (SOM) contents were mostly in optimal range (25~30 g kg-1) for paddy field in Jeonbuk province, but in Jeonnam province they were slightly higher values of the range. The concentra-tions of available silicate (SiO2) were mostly depended on the cultivation methods and the region, but some of paddy fields contained extremely high SiO2 concentra-tion. Statistical relationships among the soil chemical properties showed as follows: Correlations between EC values and exchangeable cation concentrations, between SOM contents and CEC values, and between available SIO2 concentrations and pH, EC, exchangeable cations, and CEC values were positively significant, whereas total nitrogen concentrations were significantly negatively correlated with the concentrations of exchangeable K and Mg. These results might be very useful to establish benchmark paddy fields contained with certain levels of soil fertility.

There has been known C3G (Cyanidin-3- Glucoside), D3G (Delphinidin-3-Glucoside), and Pt3G (Petunidin- 3-Glucoside) were main anthocyanin pigments in black-seeded soybean. Anthocyanin contents of total 1,032 black-seeded soybean germplasms were analyzed by HPLC. Average of total anthocyanin content was 11.67 mg/g on the all materials ranged from 0.54 to 23.45 mg/g. Mean value of C3G, D3G, and Pt3G contents in all black-seeded soybeans were 8.81, 1.78 and 0.79 mg/g, respectively. Environmental conditions influenced anthocyanin contents during seed development. Delayed flowering, especially of later maturing germplasms, has been showed to result in increased anthocyanin content. So, prolonged maturation period germplasm is generally higher than that of shorten genotypes. It may be concluded that the higher levels of anthocyanin content was associated with the late dates of harvest maturity. Also larger seeds showed high anthocyanin contents than smaller. That inclination is similar in C3G’s occasion because C3G content contribute highly to total anthocyanin content than other pigments.

In order to certificate the distribution and pollution of heavy metal of surface sediments in Nakdong River were collected and analyzed for grain size, water content, ignition loss and heavy metal content. Surface sediments mainly composed of sand(avg. 94.6%) and water content and ignition loss were 20.46%, 1.53% on average. Grain size were relatively fine and organic matter content were relatively high in the Hoichun and Sunakdonggang. Most of heavy metal content(Zn > Cr > Pb > Ni > Cu > Hg) in the Deokcheongang and Sunakdonggang were higher than the other streams. The Igeo were non polluted(less than 0) in all streams and the EF were relatively high in the small stream and PLI were non polluted(less than 1). In addition, organic matter, heavy metal content and pollution were highly correlation with grain size. Surface sediments in study area, heavy metal pollution of the Sunakdonggang were relatively high compared to the other stream but these results were not serious pollution that exceed the sediment pollution evaluation standard of river and lake in Korea and pollution levels adversely affected the majority of benthos were not.

Juniperus chinensis (Cupressaceae) is a valuable woody plant resource, but this rare plant is only distributed in restricted regions in Korea. In this study, we surveyed the geographic distribution regions, variation of sex ratio and the dynamics of natural populations of J. chinensis. in order to establish conservation strategies for the sustainable conservation of this important resource tree. The 17 natural populations of J. chinensis are restrictively distributed in the shore cliffs of (1) Ulleungdo island, (2) Gyeongju-si to Gangneung-si of the eastern coast, the riverside cliff along (3) Donggang-river of Jungsun-gun and Pyeongchang-gun and (4) branch of Nakdonggang-river in Uiseong-gun. The populations in Ulleungdo island showed continuous population distribution of over 200 individuals, but populations in other regions had discontinuous population distribution of under 200. The population of J. chinensis surveyed in Korea was estimated in ca. 3,200 individuals. The sex ratio (male/female) among populations of J. chinensis was diverse with variation from 0.46~1.67 range, but showed no significance. The sex ratio of the total individuals by species level was 0.74, and the percentage of female tree was significantly higher than the male. The results of dynamics analysis within population among regions showed that seedlings and saplings of J. chinensis in three regions surveyed were continuously regenerating. The distribution of DBH class showed a stable population structure of inverse J shape graph, but fragmentation and decrease in populations because of invading broad-leaved shrubs and trees from the surroundings were concerned. Further studies, and in situ and ex situ conservation strategies for the sustainable conservation on natural populations of this rare resources woody plant, J. chinensis in Korea are recommended.

이 연구는 금속쐐기필터를 대신하여 동적쐐기필터를 사용할 수 있을지에 대한 적정성 평가에 관한 것이다. 선형가속기에서 발생되는 엑스선 에너지는 6 MV, 10 MV로 상용화되어있다. 금속쐐기필터의 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°에 각각 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 선량율(MU/min)로 48번 조사하였고, 동적쐐기필터와의 비교를 위해 같은 조건으로 총 96번 조사하였다. 측정조건은 선원필름간 거리 100cm, 조사면 10×10cm 로 측정하였다. 현상된 필름을 스캔하여 선량분석프로그램으로 교정 후 분석하였고, 표준편차를 구해 선량율을 비교하였다. 동적쐐기필터는 선량, 산란선 및 치료시간을 감소시키며, 환자에 조사되는 선량이 적어 매우 유용하다. 동일한 조건에서 선량율에 따른 오차는 연관성이 없으므로 환자의 상황에 따라 고선량율의 치료를 사용하는 것도 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

The production of highly concentrated PM10 is in the spotlight as a social issue, and it increases the attack rate of Asthma. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of concentration and distribution for PM10 from 2000 to 2011, and investigate its correlation with the death from Asthma. Furthermore, this study was designed to analyze it by dividing into two cases like including Asian dust and excluding Asian dust because it presented the high concentration when Asian dust was occurred in the spring. This study has found that the annual average concentration distribution of PM10 in Seoul was higher in the central area than the peripheral area. The annual average concentration of PM10 and death from asthma displayed the tendency to gradually decrease. The correlation coefficient for all period was 0.92(p=0.000), and the correlation was 0.84(p=0.001) in case of remove Asian dust. The monthly average concentration of PM10 has increased in the winter and decreased in the summer. The death from Asthma and correlation coefficient for all period was 0.588(p=0.044) and 0.640(p=0.025) in case of removing Asian dust. Although the causes of Asthma had a great diversity, the similar tendency by a factor of PM10 meant that the correlation was high.

본 연구에서는 모수(parameter)가 시간에 따라 변화하는 비정상성 확률분포를 훙수빈도분석에 적용하였다. 또한, 비정상성을 가정한 재현기간 및 위험도를 추정하였다. GEV (Generalized Extreme Value) 분포를 사용하여 정상성 및 비정상성 모형 4개를 구축하였으며 비정상성 모형은 위치모수(location parameter)만 선형경향성을 가지는 경우, 규모모수(scale parameter)만 선형경향성을 가지는 경우, 위치 및 규모모수가 모두 선형경향성을 가지는 경우의 3가지로 구분되었다. 구축된 4개의 모형 중 적합모형을 선정하기 위해 상대적 우도비 검정과 Akaike 정보기준을 사용하였으며, 우리나라의 8개 다목적댐(충주댐, 소양강댐, 안동댐, 임하댐, 합천댐, 대청댐, 섬진강댐, 주암댐)으로부터 취득된 과거 관측 댐 유입량을 사용하여 제안된 절차를 적용하고 결과를 비교분석하였다. 적합모형 선정 결과 합천댐과 섬진강댐이 비정상성 GEV 모형에 적합한 것으로 분석되었고, 나머지 6개 지점의 다목적댐들은 정상성 모형에 적합한 것으로 분석되었다. 특히 합천댐과 섬진강댐의 경우 비정상성 가정에서 산정된 재현기간이 정상성 가정에서 산정된 재현기간보다 작게 산정되었음을 알 수 있었다.

LFG, generated by the decomposition of wastes, is very humid and has high temperature. When it cools during its transfer in the piping system, condensate forms, blocking the flow of LFG. Typical condensate removal devices, which works on the principle of trap usually used in the sewer pipe and utilizes water to prevent the intrusion of outer gas and to drain condensate, have limitation for their uses in landfill by the evaporation of water when it comes to dry condition in the landfill. In this study we investigated the temperature distribution in the waste layer and the possibility of the evaporation of water in the trap. LFG could be cooled down or heated by the temperature of waste layers where the transfer pipe locates. Evaporation rates, estimated by the use of temperature distribution in the landfill, were high enough to cause malfunctions when the difference of temperature between LFG and waste layer is high.

This paper evaluates the applicability of a simple kriging with local means(SKLM) for highresolution spatial mapping of monthly mean temperature and rainfall in South Korea by using AWS observations in 2013 and elevation data. For an evaluation purpose, an inverse distance weighting(IDW) which has been widely applied in GIS and cokriging are also applied. From explanatory data analysis prior to spatial interpolation, negative correlations between elevation and temperature and positive correlation between elevation and rainfall were observed. Bias and root mean square errors are computed to compare prediction performance quantitatively. From the quantitative evaluation, SKLM showed the best prediction performance in all months. IDW generated abrupt changes in spatial patterns, whereas cokriging and SKLM ref lected not only the topographic effects but also the smoothing effects. In particular, local characteristics were better mapped by SKLM than by cokriging. Despite the potential of SKLM, more extensive comparative studies for data sets observed during the much longer time-period are required, since annual, seasonal, and local variations of temperature and rainfall are very severe in South Korea.

본 연구의 목적은 하천에서 흐름방향 유속의 횡분포식에 기반하여 1차원 종분산계수를 이론적으로 유도하고 이들의 타당성을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 논문의 전편 “I. 흐름방향 유속의 횡포식”에서는 SKM을 도입하여 삼각형 단면수로에서 횡분포식을 해석적으로 유도하였다. 본 논문의 후편 “II. 종분산계수”에서는 전편에서 유도된 유속의 횡분포식을 기반으로 1차원 종분산계수 이론식을 새롭게 개발하였다. 개발된 종분산계수 이론식을 검증하기 위해 전편과 동일한 하천에서 수행된 추적자 농도 실험 결과를 이용한 관측 종분산계수와 비교 분석하였다. 또한 개발된 종분산 계수식을 기존의 식들과 비교하여 본 연구에서 개발된 식의 차별점 및 우수성을 검토하였다. 결과적으로 무차원 종분산계수는 무차원 횡확산계수에 반비례하고, 하폭 대 수심비의 제곱에 비례하였다. 그리고 Manning의 조도계수의 제곱에 반비례함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study identified concentrations, toxicities, and sources of polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals in roadside sediment from different areas of Gwangju City. Samples were collected from 13 sites of heavy traffic area (TA), downtown area (DA) and park area (PA) during February and June in 2014. The results showed a wide distribution range of PAHs concentrations between 0.139 mg/kg and 1.740 mg/kg. The highest concentration of PAHs appeared in heavy traffic area (TA). The toxic equivalent quotients (TEQs) of PAHs in the roadside sediment ranged from 27 ng/g to 159 ng/g. The TEQs and PAHs ratio of heavy traffic area and downtown area was 9.1 to 11.0%, respectively. The contributions from potential sources to PAHs in roadside sediment were estimated by the principal component analysis (PCA) and diagnostic ratios between PAHs. Vehicular (gasoline and diesel engine) emissions were found to the predominant contributor of PAHs. The concentrations of heavy metals were highest in the heavy traffic areas. The correlation analysis among traffic intensity and heavy metals, showed that AADT correlates very strongly with Cr, Cu and Pb concentrations. From the results of pollution index (PI) calculation for roadside sediment, heavy traffic area was severly polluted by heavy metals such as Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn. Contaminants in roadside sediment were found to be much affected by the vehicles. Therefore, roadside deposited sediments would be expected to be managedon a regular basis.

본 연구의 목적은 하천에서 흐름방향 유속의 횡분포식에 기반하여 1차원 종분산계수를 이론적으로 유도하고 이들의 타당성을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 논문의 전편 “I. 흐름방향 유속의 횡포식”에서는 Shiono-Knight Model (일명 SKM)을 도입하여 삼각형 단면수로에서 횡분포식을 해석적으로 유도하였다. 본 논문의 후편 “II. 종분산계수”에서는 전편에서 유도된 유속의 횡분포식을 Fischer (1968)의 삼중 적분식에 대입하여 1차원 종분산계수 이론식을 새롭게 개발하였다. 본래 SKM은 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 근간으로 개발되어 주로 직선수로이면서 사다리꼴 단면이나 복단면 수로에 적용되어 왔지만, 본 연구에서는 사행으로 인한 최심선의 변동을 고려할 수 있는 삼각형을 단면형상으로 가정하였다. 유도된 해석해를 검증하기 위해 자연하천에서 실측된 유속자료와 비교 분석하였다. 또한 유도된 횡분포식을 이용하여 단면평균유속을 산정하고, 이를 Manning의 유속식의 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 이론식은 비록 유속의 횡분포를 경우에 따라서 섬세하게 재현하지는 못하더라도 조도계수를 포함한 몇 가지 기본적인 수리 및 지형자료만 측량한다면 유속의 관측없이 비교적 정확한 유속분포를 산출해 낼 수 있는 장점이 있었다.

In this study, longitudinal strain distribution of spliced rebar in the 1-directional tension test are evaluated with an image processing method (IPM). From these results, it is estimated that the coupler can decrease the elongation at the ultimate load, therefore, the spliced rebar with coupler should be evaluated to be used in the RC structure with LSD.

In this study, longitudinal strain distribution of rebar in the 1-directional tension test are evaluated with an image processing method (IPM). From these results, it is estimated that the necking region can make the over estimation of elongation of rebar, therefore, the estimation except the necking region can be suggested to evaluate the true elongation of rebar.

The thermal load must be considered to design cable supported bridges as a variable load. The thermal load recommended by Korean design code might be different to real temperature distribution in the bridges because the thermal load proposed by Korean design code is referred to Eurocode, etc. Therefore this study proposes the temperature distribution of cable supported bridges In Korea based on measurements.
