This study presents code-compliant seismic details by addressing dry mechanical splices for precast concrete (PC) beam-column connections in the ACI 318-19 code. To this end, critical observations of previous test results on precast beam-column connection specimens with the proposed seismic detail are briefly reported in this study, along with a typical reinforced concrete (RC) monolithic connection. On this basis, nonlinear dynamic models were developed to verify seismic responses of the PC emulative moment-resisting frame systems. As the current design code allows only the emulative design approach, this study aims at identifying the seismic performances of PC moment frame systems depending on their emulative levels, for which two extreme cases were intentionally chosen as the non-emulative (unbonded self-centering with marginal energy dissipation) and fully-emulative connection details. Their corresponding hysteresis models were set by using commercial finite element analysis software. According to the current seismic design provisions, a typical five-story building was designed as a target PC building. Subsequently, nonlinear dynamic time history analyses were performed with seven ground motions to investigate the impact of emulation level or hysteresis models (i.e., energy dissipation performance) on system responses between the emulative and non-emulative PC moment frames. The analytical results showed that both the base shear and story drift ratio were substantially reduced in the emulative system compared to that of the non-emulative one, and it indicates the importance of the code-compliant (i.e., emulative) connection details on the seismic performance of the precast building.

PURPOSES : There has been increasing interest in South Korea on warm-mix asphalt (WMA) and cold-mix asphalt (CMA) technologies that allow production of asphalt pavement mixtures at comparatively lower temperatures than those of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) for use in pavement engineering. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of replacing HMA pavement with WMA pavement with the goal of reducing CO2 emissions associated with asphalt production for road construction. METHODS : Changes in the dynamic modulus characteristics of WMA and HMA according to short-term and long-term aging were evaluated. In addition, the effects of water damage were evaluated for short- and long-term aging stages. RESULTS : For WMA, in the process of mixing and short-term aging, early-age dynamic modulus decreased owing to low temperature and reduced short-term aging (STA) time. This could result in early damage to the asphalt pavement depending on the applied traffic load and environmental load. CONCLUSIONS : Mastercurves of the dynamic modulus were used for comparative analysis of WMA and HMA. Compared to the dynamic modulus after STA of HMA, the estimated aging time determined by experiments for WMA to achieve the required stiffness was more than 48 hours, which is equiva-lent to approximately 4 to 5 years real service life when converted. It is considered that further studies are needed for performance optimization to achieve early-age performance of the asphalt mixes.

Since the time to consider when evaluating leakage of spent fuel dry storage systems is very long, assumptions that continue to leak at the initial leakage rate are too conservative. Therefore, this study developed a dynamic methodology to calculate the change in leakage rate using time-varying variables and apply it to calculate the amount of radioactive leakage during the evaluation period. The developed dynamic methodology was then applied to calculate the leakage radiation source term for a hypothetical dry storage system and used to perform a public dose assessment. When applying the developed dynamic leakage rate evaluation methodology for more accurate confinement evaluation in case of containment damage of dry storage system, it was found that the change of leak rate with time is very insignificant if the hole diameter is small enough, and the leak rate decreases rapidly with time when a hole with a certain diameter or larger occurs. In the case of the accident condition, except when the hole is very large, it corresponds to the chocked flow condition, and the leak rate decreases rapidly as soon as the internal pressure is sufficiently lowered to enter the molecular and continuum flow region. In the case of a small hole diameter, the leakage volume is very small, so even if the dynamic methodology is applied, the evaluation results are not different from the case where the initial leakage rate continues, and when the hole diameter exceeds a certain value, the internal pressure drops according to the leakage volume, and the leakage rate decreases significantly. As a result of evaluating the dose to residents by applying the calculated radiation source term, it was confirmed that the dose criteria was exceeded when a hole with a diameter of about 4 μm occurred under off-normal conditions, and the dose standard was exceeded under accident conditions when a chocked flow occurred between the diameter of the hole and 2-3 μm, resulting in a rapid increase in the dose. The results of this study are expected to contribute to a more accurate evaluation of the confinement performance of storage systems, which will contribute to the design of optimal dry storage systems.

이 논문에서는 보행교의 진동 사용성 평가에 있어서 보행자의 이동 질량 관성 효과의 고려 여부, 보행 패턴 등을 고려한 보행 시나 리오 등에 따른 해석 결과를 제시하고, 그에 따라 보행교 설계 단계에서 동적 유한요소 해석을 통한 진동 사용성 평가에 있어 적절한 해석 방법과 유의점을 제안한다. 지간 40m의 강합성 박스 단면을 갖는 단경간 단순교 형식의 보행교에 대하여 보행자 밀도, 보행 속 도, 임의 보행, 동기화 보행 등을 고려한 보행 시나리오에 대한 가속도 응답을 분석한다. 해석 결과 고정 질량 해석 방법은 임의 보행 시 나리오 해석에서 이동 질량 해석과 큰 차이를 보이지 않으며 진동 사용성 평가시에는 더 넓은 진동수 대역을 가진할 수 있는 임의 보행 시나리오를 고려하는 것이 바람직할 수 있음을 보였다.

최근 국내 지진 발생 빈도 및 강도가 증가함에 따라 지진 발생시 건물 주요 구조부에 대해서는 내진설계 및 내진 구조기술이 적용되어 지진에 대비하고 있으나, 비구조 요소인 커튼월과 창호에 대해서는 내진에 대비한 충분한 고려가 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 동적 내진성능 기준을 만족할 수 있는 커튼월을 개발하기 위해 동적 지진파 인가 시 커튼월이 파손 없이 대응 가능한 지진 변위 대응 패스너를 적용하여 동적 내진성능실험을 통해 이를 규명하고자 한다. 동적 내진성능실험을 수행한 결과, 본 연구에서 제시한 3축 이동형 패스너를 활용한 커튼월이 실제 지진파에 대응 가능하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

PURPOSES : For compaction control on the subgrade layer, the simple and economical test DCPT (Dynamic Cone Penetrometer Test) is being applied to the Korea Pavement Design Guide. However, compaction control is now difficult and to conduct in the field and is not performed in practice because the compaction degree is evaluated via the field density test as a pretreatment step when the compaction management process is evaluated by DCPT at the same time. Therefore, this study tried to propose a method considering an evaluation for the compaction degree using DCPT, via laboratory tests and field tests. METHODS: The in-situ DCPT tests were conducted according to the types of subgrade soils in the field. Afterward, the field density tests for the compaction degree (R) of field samples and the experiments using DCPT were performed simultaneously in a self-made test container in the lab. RESULTS: Through the DCPT test, compaction degree evaluation from the correlations proposed in this study was determined to be possible. Additional field tests could verify the proposed correlations between compaction degree with DCPT PR on the subgrade. CONCLUSIONS: For the evaluation of the subgrade compaction degree using dynamic CPT, the correlations between compaction degree and DCPT PR on the subgrade layer are proposed from laboratory tests and field tests using DCPT and field density tests.

Cheomseongdae is a valuable cultural assets that must be preserved historically and culturally. But, the masonry structure such as Chemseongdae is vulnerable to lateral forces. Therefore, in this study, structural modeling and dynamic analysis are performed to reflect the ground state and structural form of Cheomseongdae. Also, discrete element analysis technique is applied and dynamic behavior characteristics are analyzed according to earthquake load. For this purpose, displacements and stresses according to locations are reviewed and then swelling and distortion are analyzed.

화력발전소 구조물 중 하나인 보일러 강구조물은 물탱크가 올라가게 되는 중요한 설비지만 그 중요성이 비해 지진에 대한 안전성 평가에 대한 연구가 미비하다. 본 연구에서는 취약도 곡선을 도출하고자 16개의 지진파에 12개의 PGA값을 선정하고 포 항지진을 포함해 총 200회의 동적 비선형 해석을 수행하였다. 강재의 인장, 압축응력과 강구조물의 상대변위를 측정하였다. 강재 재료적 특성의 경우 변형은 발생하였으나 파괴는 발생하지 않았고, 상대변위의 경우 한계점에 못 미치는 변위가 발생하였다. 취약도 곡선 도출결과 국내의 지진구역 구분 및 지역계수를 기준으로 강재의 재료적 변형(400MPa)에서는 인장이 38%, 압축이 62.5%로 변형이 발생하였고, 상대변위는 0%의 확률로 한계점을 넘었다. 이러한 보일러 강구조물에 대한 취약도 곡선은 대상구조물에 대한 한 계상태를 판별하는 정량적 근거와 지진에 대한 안전설계시 활용될 수 있다.

Successful business models have some shared attributes or features. The quality of the business model can be used to determine the feasibility and potential of the business model, which can help make decisions on how to invest and risk prevention. However, the business model is not static, but changes with external factors such as demand, competition, technology, macro policies, and internal factors such as business goals, strategies, and resources. Therefore, the requirements of the quality attributes of the business model at each stage are different. Dynamic evaluation of business model quality is essential for the development of any enterprises, but on the emerging issue, academic research has greatly lagged behind the needs of business practices. Fist in this paper, the generation and evolution of the business model is divided into four stages: blueprint design, practical modeling, application copying, and transformational change. Then, based on reviewing literature, seven key attributes of business model quality are identified, namely, uniqueness, complementary, novelty, certainty, scalability, win-win and matching degree. Thereafter, by using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (FsQCA), some configurations of key attributes of business model quality are identified, which are considered critical paths for the business success. Finally, the theory of dynamic evaluation of business model quality has been put forward and used to assess the sample business model.

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) is one of key elements to determine both electrochemical performances and lifetimes of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). PEM is exposed to a variety of dynamic stimuli (e.g., temperature, humidity, pressure, fuel gases and so on) under their operation conditions and meets unavoidable mechanical damages derived from unequal pressure difference between anode and cathode feed gases. Even though there have been approaches to evaluate the mechanical strength of PEM materials, most of the trials could provide static information on their mechanical strength. In this study, a pressure-loaded blister hybrid system connected with gas chromatography was developed to disclose the efficacy of the system as an evaluation tool of dynamic PEM strength under realistic FCEV operation conditions.

PURPOSES: This study aims to evaluate the effects of vehicle dynamic behaviors on ride quality. METHODS: Simulation and field test were conducted to analyze the behavior of a driving vehicle. The simulation program CarSIM was applied and an INS (Inertial Navigation System) was used for field experiments. A small simulator was developed to simulate vehicle behavior such as roll, pitch, and bounce. The panels evaluated the ride quality in five stages from “very satisfied”to “very dissatisfied.”Experiments were conducted on a total of 144 cases of vehicle behavior combinations. RESULTS: In both simulation and field tests, pitch is the largest and yaw the smallest. Especially in the field test, the amount of yaw is very low, about 7% of pitch and 18% of roll. The sensitive and extensive analysis conducted related ride quality with changing the frequency and amplitude. It was found that the most sensitive frequency range is 8 Hz across all amplitudes. Moreover, the combination of the roll and bounce was most sensitive to the ride quality at the low-frequency range. CONCLUSIONS: This result show that the vertical vehicle behavior (bounce) as well as the rotational behavior (roll and pitch) are highly correlated with ride quality. Therefore, it is expected that a more reasonable roughness index can be developed through a combination of vertical and rotational vehicle behavior.

Dynamic numerical simulation of pile-supported slab track system embedded in a soft soil and embankment was performed. 3D model was formulated in a time domain to consider the non-linearity of soil by utilizing FLAC 3D, which is a finite difference method program. Soil non-linearity was simulated by adopting the hysteric damping model and liner elements, which could consider soil-pile interface. The long period seismic loads, Hachinohe type strong motions, were applied for estimating seismic respose of the system, Parametric study was carried out by changing subsoil layer profile, embankment height and seismic loading conditions. The most of horizontal permanent displacement was initiated by slope failure. Increase of the embedded height and thickness of the soft soil layer leads increase of member forces of PHC piles; bending moment, and axial force. Finally, basic guidelines for designing pile-supported slab track system under seismic loading are recommended based on the analysis results.

This study investigates dynamic characteristics of a 2MW wind turbine structure by long-term response monitoring with accelerometers, tiltmeter and strain gauges. The object wind turbine structure is located in Jeju Island, Korea. The natural frequency and damping ratio were evaluated by least-square frequency domain decomposition and random decrement technique using acceleration response data. As a result, it was found that natural frequencies with 1st, 2nd and 3rd modes, and blade passing frequencies with 1P, 2P and 3P were clearly showed from power spectral densities of acceleration reponses. Furthermore, 1st model frequencies were almost constant with increase in standard deviations of acceleration responses. Another notable observation was that when standard deviations of acceleration responses were small, damping ratios showed to diverge. However, when standard deviations of acceleration responses had large values, damping ratios were converged to about 0.5%.

목 적：임상에서 많이 사용되고 있는 A(ionic contrast) 조영제와 B(Non-ionic contrast) 조영제를 사용 후 Breast 병변 환자의 dynamic검사 시 병변확인에 중요한 요소인 Time-signal intensity curve의 곡선변화를 분석하여 병변을 wash-out 으로 판단하는데 좀 더 효과적인 조영제가 어떤 조영제인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법：연구 대상은 본원에 Breast MRI를 위해 내원한 환자 중 종양으로 진단 된 환자 32명을 대상으로 하였고, 검사 기간은 2015년 6월부터 2015년 12월 까지 이었으며, 평균연령은 54.1세(35~67세)이었다. 장비는 3Tesla 자기공명영상장치(Magnetom Verio, Siemens, Germany)와 Breast코일을 사용하였으며, 영상의 획득은 T1 FLASH 3D 방법을 이용하여 검사하였고, Auto shimming 시행 후 조영제 자동주입기를 통해 ionic 조영제인 A(2ml/sec)조영제와 생리식염수(30ml, 2ml/sec)를 주입하였고 non-ionic조영제인 B(1ml/sec)조영제와 생리식염수(30ml, 1ml/sec)를 주입하여 영상을 얻었다. Time-signal intensity curve에 대한 분석은 Syngo MR MEAN CURVE Card(Siemens)를 통하여 평균 ROI의 직경을 5mm로 하고 Time-signal intensity curve의 peak time으로부터 기울기를 구해 비교 분석하였다. ionic 과 non-ionic 조영제의 Time-signal intensity curve 값에 대한 비교 분석은 Independent two – sample (T- Test)를 이용하여 통계학적으로 검정하였다. 결 과：Breast cancer 로 확진된 환자 32명의 ionic 과 non-ionic 조영제의 Time-signal intensity curve를 분석한 결과 ionic 평균 기울기는 -7.70(sd=4.78) 이며, non-ionic 조영제 평균 기울기는–12.45(sd=4.84)이였으며 ionic 과 non-ionic 조영제의 Time-signal intensity curve에 대한 T- Test 검정결과 P Valu 값이 0.01으로 두 그룹 간에 유의한 차이가 있음을 보여주고 있다. 결 론：병변판단에 중요한 기준이 되는 Time-signal intensity curve는 검사 시간에 따라 기울기에 변화를 나타낸다. 이러한 제한적인 시간내의 곡선변화는 병변을 판단하는데 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 임상에서 많이 사용되는 ionic contrast와 non-ionic contrast를 개별적으로 사용한 결과 non-ionic 조영제를 사용한 검사의 Time-signal intensity curve 기울기가 ionic 조영제를 사용한 검사의 기울기보다 좀 더 큰 변화를 나타냈다. 결론적으로 breast dynamic 검사 시 ionic 조영제 보다 non-ionic 조영제를 사용하는 것이 좀 더 유용하리라고 보여진다.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of the dynamic immersion test (DIT) through digital image analysis (DIA). METHODS : The asphalt binder retained post DIT was inspected visually by more than three investigators. However, because visual observations can be subjective, depending on the inspector’s skills and knowledge, DIA was also performed. The threshold value for the DIA was determined by a mesh analysis, in which the digital image to be analyzed is divided into very small meshes. In addition, the bitumen bond strength (BBS) test was also performed to the compare the visual results with the mechanical values. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : Depending on the materials used, various methods can be used to predict the behavior of retained asphalt. However, the increasing ratio in the trend of retained asphalt shows different behaviors among the evaluation methods. In this study, the results of the visual observations were significantly different from those of the DIA, the mesh analysis, and the BBS tests. Thus, DIA is an appropriate method for evaluating the results of the DIT. However, in order to use this technique in the field, it is necessary to determine a more reasonable threshold value by performing DIA on various materials.

Piloti-type building is one of typical vertical atypical buildings. These buildings can fail by weak-story or flexible-story mechanism on the first story. They should be designed by taking into account the special seismic load, but those less than six stories are not required to confirm the seismic performance from structural engineers in Korea. For this reason, small-size pilloti-type RC buildings need to be checked for seismic performance. Based on this background, this study performed nonlinear dynamic analysis using the PERFORM-3D for small-size pilloti-type RC buildings and assessed their seismic performance. Examples are two through four story buildings with and without walls in the first story. The walls and columns in the first story satisfied the target performance in the basic of flexural behavior due to quite a large size and reinforcement. However, wall shear demands exceed shear strength in some buildings. When designed for KBC2009, wall shear strength exceed shear demand in some buildings, but still does not in others. Consequently, wall shear must be carefully checked in both existing and new small-size pilloti-type RC buildings.
