현재 국내에서는 아스팔트 포장의 예방적 유지보수공법의 사용이 미미하며, 시공 기준 또한 부재한 실정이다. 이에 따라 포장가속시 험시설을 활용하여 예방적 유지보수공법 적용에 대한 공용성 변화 분석을 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 포그씰 A, B 공법에 대해 도포 량을 다르게 시공하여 기능성 인자인 BPN, MPD와 물성 인자인 공극률에 대해 추적조사를 진행하여 공용성 변화를 분석하였다. 주행 횟수의 산정은 가속시험기의 등가단축하중(ESAL, Equivalent SIngle Axle Load)의 관계식을 통해 실제 교통량을 등가단축하중으로 환산 하여 가속시험 주행 횟수를 산정하여 시공 후 공용 1년까지의 성능을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 기능성 인자인 MPD는 차량 주행으로 인 해 점차 감소하였으며, BPN은 시공 직후 포그씰 처리로 인한 미끄럼 저하가 지배적으로 나타났으나 점차 회복되는 것으로 나타났다. 물성 인자인 공극률은 주행 횟수가 증가할수록 포그씰이 포장 표면으로 채워져 공극률이 줄어드는 것으로 나타났다. 도포량별 분석 결과 도포량이 가장 많은 구간에서 저하율이 모든 인자에서 가장 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 두 도포량의 경우 인자별로 미세한 차이는 존재하였으나 대부분 비슷한 경향을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다.

국내 도로 연장은 2023년 기준 115,878km로 매년 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 이중 준공 30년 이상된 노후도로의 비율은 51.5%에 해당하고 있어 도로 유지관리의 중요성이 대두되는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 아스팔트 예방적 유지보수공법인 포그씰(Fog Seal)을 실 제 공용중에 있는 도로에 적용하여 공용성 변화를 분석하였다. 공용성능 분석을 위해 차량의 휠패스 부분에서 공법당 6개의 코어를 3 차년간 채취하여 공극률 및 바인더 함량 값을 비교하였다. 분석 방법으로는 포그씰 공법을 시공하지 않은 구간을 대조군으로 선정하 여 추적조사 기간에 따른 변화 추이를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 공극률은 포그씰 시공 이후 지속적인 감소를 보였다. 바인더 함량의 경 우 공용연수가 증가할수록 바인더 함량 또한 점차 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 공용연수가 증가함에 따라 차량의 주행으로 인 해 표면에 도포된 포그씰이 점차 도로 표면 및 균열 속으로 스며들어 내부의 공극이 채워지는 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the common performance of asphalt pavements, determine the timing of preventive maintenance, and determine the optimal timing of application of the preventive maintenance methods by analyzing PMS data. METHODS : Using PMS data on asphalt pavement performance on highways, we derived the major damage factors and evaluated them according to the public period and traffic level. Among the factors evaluated, we determined those that could be improved by preventive maintenance, calculated the amount of change annually, and derived the timing of the application of the preventive maintenance method through correlation analysis. RESULTS : Among highway PMS data factors, crack variation was found to affect preventive maintenance, which increased rapidly after five years of performance. Traffic analysis showed that changes increased rapidly in the fifth, sixth, and seventh years when AADT exceeded 20,000, exceeded 10,000, and was under 10,000, respectively. Analysis of the amount of crack variation according to the pavement type showed that crack variation increased rapidly in the overlay section compared to the general AP section. CONCLUSIONS : Crack variation is the performance factor that was expected to be effective in preventive maintenance, and the PMS data showed that the initial application time of the preventive maintenance method varied by one year, depending on the traffic volume.

국내에서 공용중인 교량은 33,177개로 사회기반시설 중 가장 많은 비중을 차지한다. 이러한 교량은 공용하중, 온도, 습도 등에 의해 거더에 신축량이 발생하게 되고, 거더간 유간거리에 대한 안정성을 확보하기 위해 신축이음장치를 설치한다. 신 축이음장치에는 교량의 누수 및 퇴적물 낙하 등을 방지하기 위해 고무지수재를 설치하는 것이 일반적이다. 하지만 이러한 고무 지수재는 다양한 원인에 의해 쉽게 손상이 발생하게 된다. 손상된 고무지수재를 통해 거더의 부식, 교량하부 인명사고 등 다양 한 2차 피해가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 피해를 예방하기 위해 교량의 유지관리를 수행하고 있지만 고무지수재 특성상 지속적인 교체는 불가피한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 신축이음장치에 활용되는 고무지수재의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 초탄 성 형상기억합금을 활용한 새로운 지수재 개발 연구를 수행하였다. 초탄성 형상기억합금 지수재에 대한 유한요소해석을 수행 및 분석하였으며, 복원 효과를 통해 지속 사용 가능한 지수재 연구를 검증하였다.

Predicting remaining useful life (RUL) becomes significant to implement prognostics and health management of industrial systems. The relevant studies have contributed to creating RUL prediction models and validating their acceptable performance; however, they are confined to drive reasonable preventive maintenance strategies derived from and connected with such predictive models. This paper proposes a data-driven preventive maintenance method that predicts RUL of industrial systems and determines the optimal replacement time intervals to lead to cost minimization in preventive maintenance. The proposed method comprises: (1) generating RUL prediction models through learning historical process data by using machine learning techniques including random forest and extreme gradient boosting, and (2) applying the system failure time derived from the RUL prediction models to the Weibull distribution-based minimum-repair block replacement model for finding the cost-optimal block replacement time. The paper includes a case study to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method using an open dataset, wherein sensor data are generated and recorded from turbofan engine systems.

전 세계 90 %의 인구가 WHO의 연평균 미세먼지 노출 기준(10 ㎍/㎥)을 초과한 공기를 흡입하고 있다. 전 세계적으로 육상뿐 만 아니라 해양에서 발생하는 질소산화물에 대한 규제를 통해 2차 오염물질, 초미세먼지 저감에 대해 노력하고 있으며 국내에서는 선박에서 미세먼지 발생의 주요한 원인인 황 함유량 저감과 환경친화적 선박의 개발 및 보급 등을 통해 깨끗한 해양환경 조성을 위한 노력을 하고 있다. 디젤엔진 유해 배출가스 저감을 위한 기술 중 압력 손실이 적고 높은 집진 효율 및 NOx의 제거와 유지 관리의 장점이 많은 전기 집진기의 수요와 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 총톤수 999톤급 선박의 2,427 kW 선박용 디젤엔진의 미세먼지 저감을 목적으로 개발된 전기 집진기를 예지보전단계에서 고장모드영향분석을 통해 장비 품질을 높여 선박 내에서의 내구연한을 높이고자 위험 우선순위 도출하였다. 위험 우선순위는 고장모드 241(poor dust capture efficiency)이 RPN 180으로 가장 높았다. Collecting electrode 에서 가장 많은 고위험 고장모드를 검출하여 집중관리 부품으로 관리해야 할 필요가 있었으며 원인으로 진동과 핀 풀림으로 인한 유 격 불량이 가장 많이 검출되었다. 핀 풀림 역시 근본적으로는 선체 또는 장비에서 발생하는 진동이 원인이 되어 발생할 수 있는 사항이기 때문에 핀 풀림이 발생하는 개소에 보완이 필요하겠다.

This paper investigates the stress-reducing preventive maintenance model through numerical experiments. The preventive maintenance model is used to analyze the relationship between related conditions and variables to gain insight into the efficient operation of the system when performing preventive maintenance in real-world situations. Various preventive maintenance models have been developed over the past decades and their complexity has increased in recent years. Increasing complexity is essential to reflect reality, but recent models can only be interpreted through numerical experiments. The stress-reducing preventive maintenance is a newly introduced preventive maintenance concept and can only be interpreted numerically due to its complexity, and has received little attention because the concept is unfamiliar. Therefore, for information purposes, this paper investigates the characteristics of the stress-reducing preventive maintenance and the relationship between parameters and variables through numerical experiments. In particular, this paper is focusing on the economic feasibility of stress-reducing preventive maintenance by observing changes in the optimal preventive maintenance period in response to changes in environmental stress and the improvement factor. As a result, when either the environmental stress or the improve effect of stress-reducing preventive maintenance is low, it is not necessary to carry out the stress-reducing preventive maintenance at excessive cost. In addition, it was found that the age reduction model is more economical than the failure rate reduction model.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of an ultra-thin asphalt pavement as a preventive maintenance approach through laboratory tests. METHODS : An ultra-thin asphalt pavement of 2 cm wearing course thickness comprising modified asphalt and aggregate is a preventive maintenance method used for asphalt pavements. A mix design was carried out to determine the optimum aggregate gradation and asphalt contents. A dynamic immersion test was performed to evaluate the water-resistance of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement. A wet track abrasion test and a cohesion test were conducted to examine the applicability of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement in surface treatment. The performance of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement was evaluated through wheel loading tests, such as Hamburg wheel-tracking and third-scale model mobileloading simulator (MMLS-3). RESULTS : An optimum binder content of 4.9% was obtained in the ultra-thin asphalt mixture from the Marshall mix design. The waterresistance tests indicated a 70% dynamic immersion coverage rate of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement. The wet track abrasion test showed an abrasion rate of 0.0107 g/cm2, and the cohesion tests indicated a 19.0 kg·cm average cohesion at 30 min of operating time and 21.4 kg·cm average cohesion at 60 min of operating time. From the Hamburg wheel-tracking test, a 16.56 mm rut depth at 20,000 wheel passing was obtained. Finally, a 5.87 mm rut depth at 300,000 number of wheel passing was detected from the MMLS-3 test. CONCLUSIONS : The water-resistance of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement satisfied the recommended guidelines of the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. In addition, the applicability of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement as a surface treatment met the standard of the International Slurry Surfacing Association. Furthermore, the deformation performance of the ultra-thin asphalt pavement was 1.5 times better than that of the straight asphalt pavement, based on the results of the wheel-loading tests. Hence, it is estimated that an ultra-thin asphalt pavement has a high performance in the preventive maintenance of asphalt pavement, even though the cracking resistance was not evaluated in this study.

As a system complexity increases and technology innovation progresses rapidly, leasing the equipment is considered as an important issue in many engineering areas. In practice, many engineering fields lease the equipment because it is an economical way to lease the equipment rather than to own the equipment. In addition, as the maintenance actions for the equipment are costly and need a specialist, the lessor is responsible for the maintenance actions in most leased contract. Hence, the lessor should establish the optimal maintenance strategy to minimize the maintenance cost. This paper proposes two periodic preventive maintenance policies for the leased equipment. The preventive maintenance action of policy 1 is performed with a periodic interval, in which their intervals are the same until the end of lease period. The other policy is to determine the periodic preventive maintenance interval minimizing total maintenance cost during the lease period. In addition, this paper presents two decision-making models to determine the preventive maintenance strategy for leased equipment based on the lessor’s preference between the maintenance cost and the reliability at the end of lease period. The structural properties of the proposed decision-making model are investigated and algorithms to search the optimal maintenance policy that are satisfied by the lessor are provided. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed model. The results show that a maintenance policy minimizing the maintenance cost is selected as a reasonable decision as the lease term becomes shorter. Moreover, the frequent preventive maintenance actions are performed when the minimal repair cost is higher than the preventive maintenance cost, resulting in higher maintenance cost.

The reinforced retaining wall was introduced in the late 1980s and has been actively used since the 1990s in Korea 's expressway construction. At the beginning of the introduction, proper stiffeners and backfill materials were used and compaction management was thoroughly carried out, which was recognized as an economical and excellent workability method. However, the current understanding of reinforced earth retaining walls about 30 years old is a negative image such as inadequate reinforcement materials, backfill materials, insufficient compaction, and insufficient drainage system. In this way, the reinforced earth retaining walls that have been constructed in the midst of the negative perception are about 1,000 at the expressway site, and about 1000 will be completed in a few years and about 2,000 will be used. Most of the problems of reinforced earth retaining wall were found during maintenance, and countermeasures are suggested by tracing back to what problems were observed in the design and construction of the observed phenomena. The retaining walls to be installed in future maintenance should be minimized in designing and constructing to prevent problems. It is estimated that such a problem can be solved by changing the recognition. Therefore, in this study, damage cases of reinforcement retaining wall which is frequently occurred in the expressway of Korea were analyzed to derive the preventive maintenance method of reinforced earth retaining walls. Then, the problems and countermeasures were analyzed for each type of damage.

As a system complexity increases and technology innovation progresses rapidly, it tends to lease a system rather than own one. This paper deals with a decision-making model to determine the preventive maintenance strategy for leased equipment. Various maintenance options are presented and formulated via the non-homogeneous Poisson process. During the lease period, the preventive maintenance strategy that minimizes the total cost among the presented maintenance options is selected. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed model.

PURPOSES:In this study, field performance evaluation of crack treatment of pavement and the feasibility of surface treatment of pavement are presented. The performance and cost of preventive maintenance methods have been previously verified, and the methods are being used in many developed countries and cities. However, the performance and cost of the system have not been verified in domestic, field applications. Therefore, in order to improve performance, the field performance is evaluated, and a reasonable cost is proposed.METHODS:Visual Inspection was conducted to evaluate the field application and performance of the preventive maintenance method. In addition, the PCI index was calculated from the results of visual inspection of the application area of the surface treatment method, and the performance life of each method was predicted. For the economic evaluation, life cycle cost analysis was performed using the life cycle cost analysis program.RESULTS:In order to evaluate and quantify the field performance of crack repair material, the residue condition of the pavement surface after crack treatment, rather than the performance of the material, is evaluated. In addition, the crack resistance and performance life of surface treatment methods are evaluated. The cost of currently available treatment methods are compared to the common pavement cut and overlay method, and it is determined that the preventive method is not economical based on life cycle cost analysis.CONCLUSIONS:Because of the characteristics of cracking, it is necessary to conduct the evaluation of currently applied methods and the analysis of the cause of damage, by visual inspection. Moreover, in order to evaluate the performance and economic suitability of the currently applied surface treatment methods, it is necessary to acquire information on application sections by monitoring their long-term conditions and performance.

METHODS : Hydrophobic characteristics of the advanced surface treatment material are observed and measured the filling depth and the permeability for sand and asphalt pavement specimen using the water absorption test and permeability test, X-RAY CT test. Color difference for the weather resistance using ultraviolet ray accelerated weathering test is compared with asphalt pavement specimens. RESULTS : The developed material shows the decreased water absorption and increased impermeable effect because of the hydrophobic characteristics. It is found that the filling depth is about 6mm and weather resistance is better than asphalt pavement specimen. CONCLUSIONS: The advanced hydrophobic - low viscosity filling treatment material is developed in this study (Part Ⅰ) to improve the waterproof characteristics and high filling capacity and weather resistance for the pavement preventive maintenance.

PURPOSES : Surface treatment material for pavement preventive maintenance should be inspected field applicability. This study(Part Ⅱ) aimed to checkup coating characteristics and performance analysis using lab and field tests. The hydrophobic - low viscosity filling material for pavement preventive maintenance is presented in Part Ⅰ, which is a series of companion study. METHODS: Relative comparison between general asphalt mixtures and surface treatment asphalt mixtures are analyzed and measured for the field application such as indirect tensile strength ratio(TSR), abrasion resistance, crack propagation resistance, temperature resistance, coating thickness, permeability resistance and skid resistance in terms of british pendulum number(BPN). RESULTS: It is found that TSR, crack propagation resistance and permeability resistance is increased as against uncoated asphalt specimen. Abrasion resistance and temperature resistance is secured from the initial coating thickness point of view, which is about 0.2~0.3mm. Skid resistance on the surface treatment pavement is satisfied with the BPN criteria of national highway because of exposed aggregate and crack sill induced pavement deterioration and damage cracks. CONCLUSIONS : The hydrophobic - low viscosity surface treatment material for pavement preventive maintenance is validated on field applicability evaluation based on quantitative analysis of coating thickness and performance analysis using lab and field tests.
