In conventional construction practices, roof-parapet junction structures inevitably disrupt the insulation installation's continuity, leading to energy loss and thermal bridging. To address this issue, parapet thermal breaks were installed to interrupt the heat flow between the roof and the parapet, effectively preventing thermal bridging and energy loss and thereby reducing overall energy loss in buildings. This study equipped three experimental specimens with the developed parapet thermal breaks to verify their structural performance. These specimens were subjected to unidirectional loading under displacement-controlled conditions. The structural performance of these insulation structures was evaluated by comparing and analyzing the test results with corresponding analytical studies conducted using a finite element analysis program. In addition, five analytical models with varying parameters of the parapet thermal breaks were developed and compared against the baseline model. Consequently, the most efficient shape of the parapet thermal break was determined.

This study evaluates the analytical performance of a newly developed miniaturized disposable U-tube for an automated blood viscometer and compares it to conventional viscometers. Whole blood viscosity (WBV), essential for circulatory function, exhibits non-Newtonian behavior, posing challenges for measurement at low shear rates. The blood viscometer, based on a scanning capillary tube method, used disposable U-tubes to measure viscosities across a shear rate range of 1s⁻¹ to 1,000s⁻¹. Precision evaluation showed stable coefficients of variation (CV) across different viscosity levels. Repeatability assessment indicated consistent CV values, demonstrating the reliability of the device. The agreement with the LV-III Brookfield viscometer and MCR 92 Rheometer was analyzed using Bland-Altman plots, which revealed minor systematic biases and consistent differences across the measurement range. Correlation analysis using Passing-Bablok regression showed high correlation coefficients (R > 0.96) with regression slopes close to 1. The newly developed miniaturized disposable U-tube exhibits excellent precision, reliable repeatability, and high correlation with established methods, enhancing laboratory productivity and offering potential for clinical applications. Further studies with human blood samples are recommended to confirm its clinical applicability.

벨로우즈 신축이음관은 구조적 특성으로 인해 큰 변위 용량을 갖으며 과도한 상대변위에 의한 매립 배관 시스템의 손상을 저감시키기 위해 연결부로써 사용된다. 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 내진성능 평가를 위한 연구에서 한계상태는 변형률을 적용하였지만 변형률 기반 한계상태는 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 큰 변위용량을 고려할 수 없다. 또한 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 성능평가와 한계상태 분석을 위한 해석적 및 실험적 연구는 수행된 사례가 극히 적다. 따라서 본 연구는 단조 및 반복하중을 받는 벨로우즈 신축이 음관의 해석적 연구를 통해 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 한계상태를 분석하였다. 결과적으로 단조하중 보다 반복하중을 받는 벨로우즈 신축이음관은 더 낮은 변위에서 누출이 발생하였다. 반복하중으로 인한 피 로 및 라체팅 현상으로 인해 단조하중 보다 낮은 변위의 성능을 갖는 것으로 보여진다. 따라서 반복하 중에서 관측된 변위응답을 기반으로 벨로우즈 신축이음관의 내진성능 평가를 수행하는 것이 보수적일 것으로 판단된다.

원자력 발전소에서 배관 시스템은 냉각수 및 오염수를 운반하고 생성된 증기를 터빈으로 이동시켜 에너지를 생산하는 중요한 설비이다. 국내에 건설된 원자력 발전소의 가동연수가 증가함에 따라 배관 시스템의 물리적, 기계적 성질의 열화현상은 발생할 수 있으며 이를 경년열화로 정의한다. 배관 시스 템의 경년열화는 재료의 피로, 부식(국부감육), 마모 등과 같은 메커니즘을 통해 발생할 수 있으며 재 료의 강도 및 시스템의 성능 저하와 균열을 야기할 수 있다. 지속적이고 안정적인 에너지 생산을 위해 경제성과 정확도를 고려한 원전 배관 시스템의 손상 감시 기술은 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 원전 배 관 시스템의 손상 감시 기술을 개발하기 위한 기초적인 연구로써 배관 시스템의 취약요소로 판단되는 elbow의 국부적인 감육에 따른 거동의 변화를 분석하고자 한다.

With the expanding availability of market data, firms are increasingly reliant on analytical capabilities as a source of competitive advantage, a trend that is reflected in the rising budgets allocated to data and analytics (The CMO Survey, 2022). Analytical capabilities denote firms' capacity to define and extract insights from the available data and link these insights to decision-making (e.g., Cao et al., 2019; Penttinen & Frösén, 2022). Despite the growing influence of the capability perspective on marketing analytics, which is rooted in the resource-based view (Barney, 1991), the understanding of analytical capabilities as a source of performance disparities remains in its early stages. In particular, although analytical capabilities of firms constitute (1) capabilities internal to the firm, as well as (2) those shared within the firm’s broader business network, the vast majority of previous research focuses on the development and use of internal analytical capabilities only (Gupta & George, 2016; Wedel & Kannan, 2016). As a result, there remains limited understanding regarding shared analytical capabilities that assume close collaboration between business partners, such as suppliers, buyers, and third parties, in developing and sharing data and insights (Alinaghian & Razmdoost, 2018; Penttinen & Frösén, 2022) and extend beyond the boundaries of individual firms.

In this study, an incremental loading test of the HRS(Hybrid Rubber Slit) damper was additionally performed to define the physical characteristics according to the incremental test results, and an analytical study was performed according to the damping design procedure by selecting an example structure. As a result of performing seismic performance evaluation before reinforcement by selecting a RC structure similar to an actual school structure as an example structure, the story drift ratio was satisfied, but some column members collapsed due to bending deformation. In order to secure the seismic performance, the damping design procedure of the HRS damper was presented and performed. As a result of calculating the amount of damping device according to the expected damping ratio and applying it to the example structure, the hysteresis behavior was stable without decrease in strength, and the story drift ratio and the shear force were reduced according to the damping effect. Finally the column members that had collapsed before reinforcement satisfied the LS Level.

In this paper, based on the finite element analysis model verified in previous studies, a new model of a buckling restrained brace reinforced with a steel plate was proposed. A design formula was proposed for the new model to dissipate energy without buckling the steel core under load protocol, and the performance of the model satisfying the design formula was evaluated by comparing it with the previous model through the results of hysteresis loop, bi-linear curve, cumulative energy dissipation capacity, and equivalent viscous damping.

The purpose of this study was to develop a carbon fiber sheet with embedded fiber optic sensor for maintenance and performance improvement of aged concrete bridges. The carbon fiber sheet reinforcement method can separate the concrete and the carbon fiber sheet, so it is necessary to investigate the bond performance level. However, separation of concrete and carbon fiber sheet and investigation of concrete scaling phenomenon are carried out by human, so it is difficult to secure objectivity and accurate investigation. Therefore, in this study, a method to confirm the bond level of carbon fiber sheet by reinforcing with a carbon fiber sheet with a fiber optic sensor was examined. In this study, we investigated the strain of fiber optic sensor embedded in carbon fiber sheet to identify the separate point of carbon fiber sheet. The strain measured by fiber optic sensor was measured by numerical analysis. The strain rate of the carbon fiber sheet was compared with that of the carbon fiber sheet. As a result, it was confirmed that the strain was changed at the point where the carbon fiber sheet was separated, and the strain occurred in the carbon fiber sheet was examined to predict the separate point.

In this study, finite element analysis of korean precast concrete panels was performed and 3D infinite element modeling was used.

Based on the numerical results, the performance of the packing layer of korean precast concrete panels was examined.

This study investigates the flexural shear strength of ultra high performance concrete I-girder. The effect of aspect ratio on the flexural - shear strength of UHPC was analyzed using finite element analysis. The UHPC I-type girder was modeled using 3D shell elements and analyzed using geometric and material nonlinear analysis. The boundary condition is simple support condition and a displacement load is applied to the center of the upper flange. The results shows that shear strength decreased as the aspect ratio increased and the bending-shear failure of UHPC I-girder does not occur even at larger moment than ordinary concrete due to the cross-linking action of steel fiber.

1970년대 이후 한국의 빠른 경제성장 동안에 수로나 철도 등 많은 지중구조물들이 건설되었다. 1988년에 내진설계가 의무 화되었으나, 1988년 이전의 지중 구조물들은 내진설계가 반영되지 않았다. 따라서, 이러한 지중 구조물들은 지진이 일어났을 때 안전성을 확보하기 위해 효과적인 내진 보강방법이 필요하다. 그러한 이유로, 본 연구에서는 새롭게 개발된 보강재를 이 용한 RC 박스 지중 구조물 우각부 보강공법의 내진성능에 대하여 분석하였다. 이 공법은 박스구조물 우각부에 Pre-flexed member를 설치하여 외력에 저항력을 증대시키는 원리이다. 타당성을 검증하기 위해서 새로이 개발된 보강재와 기존의 보강 재를 실험과 유한요소해석으로 비교하였다. 유한요소모델에서 강재의 비선형 모델은 J2 Plasticity Model을 기초로 하고 콘 크리트는 CEB-FIP MODEL CODE 1990로 모델링되었다. 또한, 설계반영을 위한 박스 구조물과 보강재와의 합성률을 산정 하였다. 보강재와 박스구조물은 Tie에 의해 완전 부착된 상태의 연결조건 하에서 해석이 수행되었으며, 하중-변위곡선에서 실험과 유한요소해석의 결과가 서로 일치하였다.

Recently, researches of concrete performance improvement are increased in the advanced countries. Most nano material research is analyzed by experiment. This study performs a numerical analysis used by tensile strength of MWCNT and nano continuum theory, so effect on the performance improvements of nano mortar is analytically confirmed. Preceding researches about experimental result of flexural strength by Chan and Andrawes are comparative verified with result of multi-scale finite element modeling.

In order to improve the wind performance of buckling-restrained braces (BRBs), Hybrid buckling-restrained braces (H-BRBs) have been studied in Korea. The seismic performance of H-BRBs is different according to the action of VE damper. In this study, the nonlinear time history analyses have been performed on the parameters such as brace types and input earthquakes. The results of the study suggest that H-BRBs meet the BRB's requirement of ANSI/AISC 341-10 only if VE damper is not working during an earthquake.

The seismic performance of school buildings has been a matter of common interest socially and academically. The structural system of the school buildings is representative of the domestic low-rise reinforced concrete moment resisting frames, which apply extensively infills in their masonry walls. The masonry infilled walls are divided into full masonry infill in the transverse direction and partial masonry infill in the longitudinal direction. The masonry infilled walls are usually not included in structural analysis during the design process, but affect significantly the seismic performance because they behave with surrounding frames simultaneously during earthquakes. Many researchers have studied the effect of the masonry infilled walls, but several issues have been missed such as the increase of asymmetry by adding the full masonry infill, the size of the mean strength of the full masonry infill, and short column effect by the partial masonry infill. The issues were analytically investigated and the results showed that they should be checked at least by nonlinear pushover analysis in the seismic performance evaluation process. The results also confirm the weakness of the guideline of Korean Educational Development Institute where the seismic performance is basically assessed without structural analysis.

The construction costs for nonstructural systems such as mechanical/electrical equipment, ceiling system, and piping system occupy a significant proportion of the total cost. These nonstructural systems can also cause considerable economic losses and loss of life during and after an earthquake. Therefore, reduction of seismic risk of nonstructural components has been emerging as a key aspect of research in recent year. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the seismic performance of a single-story and multi-story piping system installed in low-rise building and to identify the seismic vulnerability of the current piping systems. The seismic performance evaluation of the piping systems was conducted with 5 different earthquakes to account for the ground motion uncertainty and the preliminary results demonstrated that the maximum displacements of each floor in the multi-story piping system increased linearly with increasing floor level in the building system. This study revealed that the current design piping systems are significantly sensitive to the effect of floor height, which stress the necessity to improve the seismic performance of the current piping systems by, for example, strengthening with seismic sway bracing using transverse/longitudinal bracing cables or hangers.

Ground source heat pumps are clean, energy-efficient and environment-friendly systems. Although the initial cost of ground source heat pump system is higher than that of air source heat pump, it is now widely accepted as an economical system since the installation cost can be returned within an short period of time due to its high efficiency. In the present study, performances of ground source compound hybrid heat pump system applied to a resort building are simulated. The system design and operation process appropriate for the surrounding circumstance guarantee the high benefit of the heat pump system applied to a resort building. If among several renewable energy sources, ground, river, sea, waste water source are chosen as available alternative energies are combined, COP of the system can be increased largely and hybrid heat pump system can reduced the fuel cost.

최근 복잡해진 도심지의 토지 이용률을 높이기 위하여 원형 강교각이 건설이 요구되고 있다. 원형강교각의 경우 줄어든 단면으로 좌굴 내하력이 감소하며 이에 대한 방안으로 수직 보강재의 적용을 고려할 수 있다. 그러나 수직보강재를 적용한 원형 강교각의 좌굴 내하력의 증가의 효과에 대해서는 아직 명히 파악되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 먼저 탄소성 유한요소해석 통하여 보강재를 적용하지 않은 무보강 원형 강교각과 수직보강재가 보강된 원형 강교각에 대해서 좌굴내하력을 검토하였다. 그리고, 형상비(R/t)에 따른 좌굴내하력의 변화를 기존의 실험식과 비교하여 그 효과를 검토하였다. 그리고 원형강교각의 수직 보강재를 적용하여 폭과 두께에 따른 좌굴 내하력을 비교 검토하였다. 그리고 수직 보강재를 적용한 원형 강교각에 대한 내진성능을 검토하였다.

본 연구는 인지 연속선 이론(Cognitive Continuum Theory)을 대학 교육 환경에 적용하여 학생들이 대학 내에서 개설된 각 과목을 수강할 때, 그에 요구되는 인지 모드를 사용하는가를 알아보고자 하는 것이었다. 또한 대학 교육이 전반적으로 요구하는 인지 모드와 학생들의 전반적인 인지 모드를 비교해 보았다. 실험 결과, 학생들은 실제 자신들의 평상시 인지 양식과 관계없이 각 과목에서 요구하는 인지 모드를 수업 중에 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 학생들이 상황에 맞는 적응력을 가지고 있다고 볼 수 있겠다. 한편, 대학에서 전반적으로 학생들에게 분석적인 인지 모드를 사용하도록 유도하는 것으로 나타났다 대학 교육이 학생들의 적응력과 융통성을 증진시키기 위해서는 교육을 담당한 교수진들이 다양한 인지 모드를 사용하는 것이 필요할 것이다. 하지만 학생들이 각 과목에서 요구되는 인지 모드를 사용하였을 때 높은 수행력을 보일 것이라는 예측은 이 실험을 통해 증명할 수 없었다.
