The purpose of this research was to test the effects of entrepreneurship and technological innovation capability on new product performance in SMEs and the moderating role of absorption capability. For this study, Research data were collected through questionnaire instruments from the sample of 374 employees in 18 SMEs of metropolitan area. The 336 sample was selected and analyzed by hierarchical regression technique. The results showed that entrepreneurship and technological innovation capability had a positive effect on new product performance. And also found out absorption capability had the moderate roles between all the three factors of technological innovation capability factors and new product performance, but not between all the three factors of entrepreneurship and new product performance. With the research results, the implications for technical management of SMEs were discussed, and the directions for future research were suggested.

Most of the expressway concrete pavements in Korea have been constructed with jointed plain concrete pavements. However, the premature failure of joints occurred on some routes and it is considered to be related to the durability of concrete. Korea Expressway Corporation has been continuously devoting efforts to increase the durability of concrete, and recent research has shown that premature failure of jointed plain concrete pavement constructed recently has decreased. The durability of pavement concrete is determined by internal and external factors. Currently, the durability of pavements concrete is controlled by controlling the quantity and the spacing factor of internal air. In this study, the feasibility of evaluating concrete durability through absorption performance tests was examined. The absorption performance was evaluated by applying ASTM C 1585 and modified NBN B 15-215 in Belgium and applied to the pavement concrete mixed in the laboratory or collected on site. Each test is a method to evaluate water absorption performance, but ASTM evaluates the absorption performance through the upper surface and NBN evaluates the absorption performance through the entire surface of specimens. In this study, the absorption performance of the pavement concrete measured according to the test method was compared and the advantages and disadvantages of the performance evaluation method were examined through comparison of test results and procedures. As a result of the absorption performance test on the cores collected at the site, the amount of water absorption in the region where the few premature failure was occurred was relatively small. Also, the specimen of lower water cement ratio absorbed the smaller amount of water. And the small amount of aggregate at the surface showed tendency of the large absorption of the water. The amount of absorption due to the increment of air content showed a moderate increment but it was relatively small. This study has confirmed the possibility of estimating the durability through the evaluation of the absorption performance of concrete. However, further study is needed to extend the results obtained from the test method to the evaluation criteria of pavement concrete.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal sound absorption conditions by comparing the sound absorption characteristics of fresh and air-dried leaves of Quercus glauca, the main species of evergreen broadleaf trees (EBLT) in southern Korea. The sound absorption coefficients (SACs) obtained under 18 conditions were comparatively analyzed. The SAC of air-dried leaves improved significantly with increasing leaf layer thickness. The highest average SAC in the fresh leaf group was 0.617, which was observed under the condition of a leaf specimen size of 0.5 × 0.5 cm2 and a leaf layer thickness of 1.75 cm. In a group of air-dried leaves, this was 0.615 under the condition of a leaf specimen size of 0.5 × 0.5 cm2 and a leaf layer thickness of 2.50 cm. The maximum value of SAC for each wavelength was observed under the condition of a leaf layer thickness of 2.50 cm consisting of 0.5 × 0.5 cm2 leaf specimens, ranging from 1,400 Hz to 1,500 Hz.

콘크리트 구조물에서 균열은 수축, 수화열 및 외부하중 등에 의해 발생하는 불가피한 현상으로, 외부 유해인자를 콘크리트 내부로의 침투를 용이하게 하여 내구성을 크게 감소시킨다. 최근 스스로 균열을 치유하는 자기치유 콘크리트에 대한 연구가 활발히 수행되고 있다. 또한 콘크리트에 발생하는 균열을 제어하여, 그 성능을 극대화하기 위한 자기치유 섬유 보강 콘크리트의 연구가 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PVA 섬유를 혼입한 자기치유 모르타르를 제작하였다. PVA 섬유 혼입율에 따른 압축강도 및 휨 성능 평가를 수행하였다. 또한, 흡수율 실험을 통해 자기치유 성능평가를 수행하였으며, 시간에 따라 균열 폭의 감소로 흡수되는 수분의 양이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 자기치유 생성물 분석을 통해 PVA 섬유 혼입에 의해 탄산칼슘 침전이 더 유리한 것으로 확인되었다.

최근 제설제의 영향으로 콘크리트에는 복합열화가 작용되어 도로시설물에 대한 2차 피해와 유지 보수 비용이 급격히 증가되고 있다. 그래서 실란, 실록산 계열의 흡수방지제를 사용하여 콘크리트 내부로 침투되는 수분 및 염화이온을 차단하는데 이용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실란, 폴리실록산 계열의 흡수방지제가 갖는 단점을 개선하고자 이를 구형으로 제 조하여 콘크리트 강도별 침투깊이 및 동결융해저항 성능을 분석하였다.

The energy absorption capacity of ultra high performance fiber reinforced concretes (UHPFRCs) was investigated at high strain rates (45 – 92 s-1) using a strain energy frame impact machine. The UHPFRCs investigated in this study showed much higher energy absorption capacity, fracture energy, ranging 42 and 71 kJ/m2 at high strain rates than that (31 and 43 kJ/m2) at static rate. The energy absorption capacity of UHPFRC at high strain rates was strongly dependent on fiber type and fiber volume content.
