To overcome recent emission regulation, various hybrid systems are being developed. In the E-4WD(electric four wheel drive) system, the engine and transmission drive the front wheel, electric motor and single reduction gear drive the rear wheel. As the gear ratio of the reduction gear set determines the electric motor's operating point, the gear ratio is important to enhancement efficiency of hybrid system. This study is to analyze motor reduction gear ratio's influence on E-4WD hybrid system for optimized efficiency and driving performance. Fuel economy, operating point of power source and hybrid mode are analyzed using simulation developed with dynamic programming method.

This study investigates the performance of hollow precast segmental bridge columns with reinforcement details for material quantity reduction. The proposed triangular reinforcement details are economically feasible and rational, and facilitate shorter construction periods. The precast segmental bridge columns provides an alternative to current cast-in-place systems. We tested a model of hollow precast segmental bridge columns under a constant axial load and a quasi-static, cyclically reversed horizontal load. We used a computer program, Reinforced Concrete Analysis in Higher Evaluation System Technology (RCAHEST), for analysis of reinforced concrete structures. The used numerical method gives a realistic prediction of performance throughout the loading cycles for hollow precast segmental bridge column specimens investigated. As a result, proposed reinforcement details for material quantity reduction was equal to existing reinforcement details in terms of required performance.

PURPOSES: This study aims to evaluate the runoff reduction with permeable pavements using the SWMM analysis. METHODS: In this study, simulations were carried out using two different models, simple and complex, to evaluate the runoff reduction when an impermeable pavement is replaced with a permeable pavement. In the simple model, the target area for the analysis was grouped into four areas by the land use characteristics, using the statistical database. In the complex model, simulation was performed based on the data on the sewer and road network configuration of Yongsan-Gu Bogwang-Dong in Seoul, using the ArcGIS software. A scenario was created to investigate the hydro-performance of the permeable pavement based on the return period, runoff coefficient, and the area of permeable pavement that could be laid within one hour after rainfall. RESULTS : The simple modeling analysis results showed that, when an impervious pavement is replaced with a permeable pavement, the peak discharge reduced from 16.7 m3/s to 10.4 m3/s. This represents a reduction of approximately 37.6%. The peak discharge from the whole basin showed a reduction of approximately 11.0%, and the quantity decreased from 52.9 m3/s to 47.2 m3/s. The total flowoff reduced from 43,261 m3 to 38,551 m3, i.e., by approximately 10.9%. In the complex model, performed using the ArcGIS interpretation with fewer permeable pavements applicable, the return period and the runoff coefficient increased, and the total flowoff and peak discharge also increased. When the return period was set to 20 years, and a runoff coefficient of 0.05 was applied to all the roads, the total outflow reduced by 5195.7 m3, and the ratio reduced to 11.7%. When the return period was increased from 20 years to 30 and 100 years, the total outflow reduction decreased from 11.7% to 8.0% and 5.1%, respectively. When a runoff coefficient of 0.5 was applied to all the roads under the return period of 20 years, the total outflow reduction was 10.8%; when the return period was increased to 30 and 100 years, the total outflow reduction decreased to 6.5% and 2.9%, respectively. However, unlike in the simple model, for all the cases in the complex model, the peak discharge reductions were less than 1%. CONCLUSIONS : Being one of the techniques for water circulation and runoff reduction, a high reduction for the small return period rainfall event of penetration was obtained by applying permeable pavements instead of impermeable pavement. With the SWMM analysis results, it was proved that changing to permeable pavement is one of the ways to effectively provide water circulation to various green infrastructure projects, and for stormwater management in urban watersheds.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the seismic performance of hollow RC bridge columns with reinforcement details for material quantity reduction. The proposed reinforcement details provide economy, are rational and shorthen the construction periods. The accuracy and objectivity of the assessment process can be enhanced by using a sophisticated nonlinear finite element analysis program. Solution of the equations of motion is obtained by numerical integration using Hilber-Hughes-Taylor (HHT) algorithm. The adopted numerical method gives a realistic prediction of seismic performance throughout the input ground motions for several test specimens investigated. As a result, the proposed reinforcement details for material quantity reduction develop equal performance to that required for existing reinforcement details.

And the mean sorption rate and total amount of sorption for toluene were 11.6% and 1,054.4㎍/㎡, respectively. The sorption rate and total amount of sorption of toluene were in the range 0.1∼62.4% and 29.6∼6,764.0㎍/㎡, respectively.
In most cases, the performance of the building materials with respect to its ability to reduce the concentration of pollutants has steadily decreased within 7 days.

Bismuth-telluride based thermoelectric powders were fabricated by two-step planetary milling process which produces bimodal size distribution ranging . The powders were reduced in hydrogen atmosphere to minimize oxygen contents which cause degradation of thermoelectric performance by decreasing electrical conductivity. Oxygen contents were decreased from 0.48% to 0.25% by the reduction process. In this study, both the as-synthesized and the reduced powders were consolidated by the spark plasma sintering process at for 10 min at the heating rate of and then their thermoelectric properties were investigated. The sintered samples using the reduced p-type thermoelectric powders show 15% lower specific electrical resistivity () than those of the as-synthesized powders while Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity do not change a lot. The results confirmed that ZT value of thermoelectric performance at room temperature was improved by 15% due to high electric conductivity caused by the controlled oxygen contents present at bismuth telluride materials.

배수성 포장의 장점은 우천시 운전자에게 노면의 배수 기능과 타이어 노면의 마찰저항성과 같은 효과를 증대 시켜 일반 밀입도 아스팔트 혼합물에 비해 타이어 노면 소음을 감소시키는 효과를 제공 해준다. 그러나, 배수성 포장은 공용 후 노면의 공극 막힘 현상 등으로 인하여 주기적인 유지보수 작업이 동반된다. 그러므로 본 연구를 통해 개발된 저소음포장의 공극 형성은 굵은골재의 비율을 높여 공극형성을 직선화하여 투수 및 공극막힘 등을 최소화 하도록 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 저소음포장인 19mm, 13mm, 10mm, 8mm 저소음포장은 현재 4년이 공용된 상태에서 양호한 포장상태를 보여주며, 특수성능은 신설수준인 투수성능을 유지하고 있으며, 미끄럼 저항성도 만족하는 우수한 공용성을 나타내고 있다.

합성 하수 및 실제 하수를 이용한 금속 막의 정밀 여과 공정에서 분리 막의 전체 저항의 증가는 입자의 막 표면 축적에 의한 케이크 층의 저항 (Rc)에 가장 큰 영향을 받았다. 막 오염 저감을 위한 방법으로 오존 가스를 이용한 간헐적 역세정은 공기에 의한 경우보다 막 오염 저감에 훨씬 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 운전 인자에 대한 영향으로 동일한 오존 주입량에서는 주입시간을 길게 하기보다는 주입 가스 유량을 크게 할수록 더 높은 막 투과 유속의 회복을 보였다. 여과시간이 길수록 오존가스를 이용한 막 오염 저감효과가 감소하는 것으로 나타나 부착층 및 막 내부에서 파울링 물질에 의한 비가역적인 막 오염이 발생하기 전에 막 세정을 실시하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

일반적으로 선하역사는 구조물 상부에 차량이 주행하여 진동이 역사 구조물로 직접 전달되는 구조로 다른 구조형식보다 역사 내 소음과 진동 수준이 높아 역사 내 근무자 및 이용객들에게 불편함을 초래하고 있다. 선하역사에 대한 효과적인 진동 저감 대책을 수립하기 위해서는 접속 교량 등 인접구조물과 역사 자체 내의 진동 전달 경로를 고려한 정확한 진동 전달 특성에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 국내 선하역사의 구조형식에 대한 분류를 기초로 접속 교량과의 접속 형식, 감쇠기 등 제진 및 면진을 위한 진동 저감장치의 배치방법 등의 변화에 따른 진동 저감 성능을 평가하고 보다 효율적으로 선하역사의 진동을 저감할 수 있는 방향을 제시하였다. 진동 전달 특성 및 저감 성능 평가는 수치해석 및 현장실험을 통하여 수행하였다. 현장실험은 금곡역사를 대상으로 열차의 통과 및 정차에 따른 가속도 측정을 통하여 수행하였다. 수치해석은 상용프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 수행하였다.

HPFRCC는 물-결합재비 (W/B)가 20%로 상당히 낮고 굵은 골재를 사용하지 않으며, 고분말 혼화재료를 혼입하기 때문에 자기수축이상당히 크게 발생하여 구조물 적용 시 균열저감대책이 필요하다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 HPFRCC의 수축을 효율적으로 저감시키기 위한 방법으로 수축저감제와 팽창재의 사용을 검토하기 위하여 이들의 단독 또는 병행 혼입률에 따른 역학적 특성과 구속 수축특성을 평가하였다. 구속수축 실험 중에서 링-테스트 (Ring-test)를 통하여 HPFRCC에 사용되는 시멘트에 대하여 중량비로 수축저감제 1%와 팽창재를 7.5%를 병행 사용하였을 경우 압축강도와 인장강도가 크게 저하되지 않으면서도 수축을 가장 효율적으로 저감시킬 수 있는 최적 배합임을도출하였고 수정된 건조수축 균열실험을 통하여 이를 검증하였다.

본 연구에서는 환경적인 요인으로 인한 성능저하현상으로 내구성 저하가 예상되는 건대-구의간 고가교의 현재 상태를 분석하고 내구성 저하로 인한 내구연한의 감소를 막기 위하여 고가교 구조물의 경량화를 통한 성능개선을 수행하고자 한다. 경량화 작업은 콘크리트 방음벽을 경량재 방음벽으로, 도상을 자갈도상에서 콘크리트 도상으로, 마지막으로 트라프를 경량화 함으로써 고가교 전체의 경량화를 유도한다. 이러한 고가교 경량화에 따른 정적 및 동적 거동 변화와 성능개선 효과를 분석하고, PSC I형교 구간의 내하율 증진에 의한 구조안전성을 확인한다. 경량화 결과 구조물의 처짐이 2.6mm가 감소하고 1.07MPa의 인장응력이 감소된 것으로 평가되어 대상 구조물의 구조성능이 효과적으로 개선되었음을 알 수 있다. 고유진동수도 경량화에 따라 약 30% 증가하여 진동이 감소하고 동적거동이 향상되었다. 또한, 해석 및 계측 결과를 근거로 하여 대상교량의 내하력을 평가한 결과, 경량화에 따라 내하율이 1.82에서 1.93으로 증가하여 경량화에 따른 성능개선 효과가 우수한 것으로 판명되었다.
