현재 국내 용기포장재 안전성 평가를 위한 용출시험에서 액체 시뮬란트를 사용하는 경우 실제와 다른 이행량 결과를 나타내는 상황과 고온가열 및 건조식품용 포장재, 그리고 종이·판지의 경우 액체 시뮬란트를 사용할 수 없는 문제점들을 감안한다면 유럽연합과 같이 고체건조 시뮬란트의 도입이 필수불가결해 보인다. Tenax®를 건조식품용 시뮬란트로 사용하여 얻어진 실험 결과치가 실제 식품에서보다 높을 경우 Tenax®에 대한 기준치를 설정하여 안전성 평가 여부를 판단할 수 있을 것이라는 전제가 성립한다. 지금까지 많은 연구결과들이 이러한 전제를 입증하고 있다. 그러나, 아직까지도 Tenax®를 이용한 실험 방법이 완전하게 틀을 잡고 있지 못하다고 판단된다. 이는 Tenax®로 포집되어 측정되는 물질의 물리화학적 특성들이 매우 다양할 수 있는데, 이를 포장재로부터 또는 이행된 식품으로부터 추출분석하기 위한 용매, 추출방법, 추출시간, 오염표준물질들의 종류에 따른 추출 및 분석 방법, Tenax®의 상태에 따른 분석 재현성 등에 대한 자료들이 부족한 것이 사실이다. 국내에서 유통되는 다양한 식품종류를 감안한다면 Tenax®를 국내 식품포장재의 안전성 평가를 위한 고체건조 시뮬란트로 공식적으로 도입하기 위해서는 추가 연구들이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Recently composite materials have dominated most engineering fields, owing to their better performance, increased durability and flexibility to be customized and designed for a specific required property. This has given them unprecedented superiority over conventional materials. With the help of the ever increasing computational capabilities of computers, researchers have been trying to develop accurate material models for the complex and integrated properties of these composites. This has led to advances in virtual testing of composite materials as a supplement or a possible replacement of laboratory experiments to predict the properties and responses of composite materials and structures. This paper presents a review on the complex multi-scale modelling framework of the virtual testing machines, which involve computational mechanics at various length-scales starting with nano-mechanics and ending in structure level computational mechanics, with a homogenization technique used to link the different length scales. In addition, the paper presents the features of some of the biggest integrated virtual testing machines developed for study of concrete, including a multiscale modeling scheme for the simulation of the constitutive properties of nanocomposites. Finally, the current challenges and future development potentials for virtual test machines are discussed.

A simple, but effective means of tailoring the physical and chemical properties of carbon materials should be secured. In this sense, chemical doping by incorporating boron or nitrogen into carbon materials has been examined as a powerful tool which provides distinctive advantages over exohedral doping. In this paper, we review recent results pertaining methods by which to introduce boron atoms into the sp2 carbon lattice by means of high-temperature thermal diffusion, the properties induced by boron doping, and promising applications of this type of doping. We envisage that intrinsic boron doping will accelerate both scientific and industrial developments in the area of carbon science and technology in the future.

The stereotype of flexible MOFs(Amino-MIL-53) and carbonized porous carbon prepared from renewable resources is successfully synthesized for CO2 reduction application. The textural properties of these microporous materials are investigated, and their CO2 storage capacity and separation performance are evaluated. Owing to the combined effects of CO2-Amino interaction and its flexibility, a CO2 uptake of 2.5 mmol g−1 is observed in Amino-MIL-53 at 20 bar 298 K. In contrast, CH4 uptake in Amino-MIL-53 is very low up to 20 bar, implying potential sorbent for CO2/CH4 separation. Carbonized samples contain a small quantity of metal residues(K, Ca, Mg, S), resulting in naturally doped porous carbon. Due to the trace metal, even higher CO2 uptake of 4.7 mmol g−1 is also observed at 20 bar 298 K. Furthermore, the CH4 storage capacity is 2.9 mmol g−1 at 298 K and 20 bar. To evaluate the CO2 separation performance, the selectivity based on ideal adsorption solution theory for CO2/CH4 binary mixtures on the presented porous materials is investigated.

In the past, scholars and policy makers have tried to educate as well as incentivize practices like recycling to avoid reduce landfill stocks and create new objects from past used materials. Such products have been commercialized more and more by big brands (i.e. Adidas and Levi’s) and by famous fashion designers (i.e. Stella McCartney). While more academic literature has focused on drivers for consumers’ motivations to engage in recycling activities, there has been little research investigating consumers’ underlying psychological factors to favour recycled products over standard ones. In this study we address this issue by experimentally testing consumer evaluation and intention to adopt recycled products through an implicit theory – or mind-sets-framework on. In a set of three studies we demonstrate how consumers holding and incremental mind-set – who believe that trait like intelligence, morality or personality are malleable and transformable over time – are more keen top adopt products made of recycled materials. In contrasts, individuals with an entity mind-set – who instead believe human traits are fixed and non-mutable- are more sceptical to embrace such products. In Experiment 1 we demonstrated that the chronic incremental mind set of individuals influences their intention to acquire a recycled – over a non-recycled – coffee mug. In Experiment 2, we demonstrate through a laboratory experiment that this preference for products made out of recycled materials is stable in individual with an incremental min-set – over their entity min-set counterpart – even below the liminal attention threshold. Finally, in Experiment 3 we demonstrate that by attributing the merit of the transformation in a different object to qualities that are embedded in the materials used (rather than to the process to transform them) can make recycled products more appealing also to individuals with an entity mind-set. The results of these studies contribute to the literature on implicit theory by investigating another area in consumer psychology (intention to adopt recycled products) so far unexplored. On a managerial point of view, this study suggests how highlighting the effort spent by a company in creating the product can attract consumer (especially incremental theorists) to intend to buy the product, while highlighting the qualities of the material used can attract more entity theorists.

We report the feasibility of TaC production via self-propagating high temperature synthesis, and the influence of the initial green compact density on the final composite particle size. Experiments are carried out from a minimum pressure of 0.3 MPa, the pressure at which the initial green body becomes self-standing, up to 3 MPa, the point at which no further combustion occurs. The green density of the pellets varies from 29.99% to 42.97%, as compared with the theoretical density. The increase in green density decreases the powder size of TaC, and the smallest particle size is observed with 1.5 MPa, at 10.36 μm. Phase analysis results confirm the presence of the TaC phase only. In the range of 0.3-0.5 MPa, traces of unreacted Ta and C residues are detected. However, results also show the presence of only C residue in the matrix within the pressure range of 0.6-3.0 MPa.

전라남도 해남군 문내면 일대에 축성된 전라우수영 성곽의 부재를 대상으로 암석학적 연구를 수행하고 산지를 추정하여 보수정비를 위한 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구대상인 전라우수영은 2016년에 사적 제535호로 지정되었으며 성곽의 잔존구간은 약 15% 정도로 보존관리가 필요한 실정이다. 이번 연구에서는 성곽 부재에 대한 암석기재적 특징을 바탕으로 축성에 사용된 암석을 분류하고 사용비율을 산출하였으며 동시에 전암대자율을 측정하였다. 채취한 성곽 시료의 현미경관찰로 광물 구성 및 조직 등을 파악하였으며 주변지역에 대한 지질조사를 통해 축성 재료의 가능성이 있는 주변암과 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 성곽 부재는 크게 응회암류와 기타 암석으로 구분할 수 있으나 대부분이 응회암류이며 세부적으로는 응회암, 화산력 응회암, 화산력암이다. 부재로 사용된 비율을 살펴보면 화산력 응회암이 60.3%로 가장 많이 사용되었으며 이어서 응회암(34.7%), 화산력암(2.5%) 순이다. 전암대자율 측정 결과 응회암류는 1×10−3 SI unit 이하의 낮은 값과 1-14×10−3 SI unit의 높은 값을 보이는 유형으로 구분할 수 있다. 주변암은 응회암이 우세하나 위치마다 기재면에서 차이를 보이며 그 외의 응회암류는 화원면 신덕리 일대에 분포한다. 암석기재적인 특징과 전암대자율값, 채석산지의 가능성을 고려하면 부재의 응회암은 문내면 동외리, 화산력 응회암은 화원면 신덕리 일대가 산지로 추정된다. 추가로 축성 재료의 기준 설정을 위해 성곽의 주요 부재를 대상으로 물성시험을 수행하였으며, 압축강도 면에서 응회암이 약 156 MPa의 양호한 값을 보였다. 물성시험 결과와 부재의 암종 별 사용량을 종합하면 성곽의 보수정비 시 대체석으로는 응회암이 적절할 것으로 판단된다.

RMDF기법에 의한 미세구조들은 가우스 함수들의 개수가 일정할지라도 랜덤하게 생성된다. 이렇게 랜덤 하게 생성되는 미세구조들을 2차원 보(beam) 모델에 적용하여 미세구조의 스케일에 따른 수직응력과 전단응력의 계층적 변 동을 수치 해석적으로 고찰하였다. 또한, 균열해석을 통해 RMDF의 랜덤성과 가우스 함수들의 개수가 균열선단에서의 응력 값에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

FRP is a new material that has light, high strength and high durability characteristics and is emerging as a third construction material in and out of countries. However, very few studies have been done on curved FRP construction materials that can be used for tunnels or arched bridges. In particular, many joints are required for the application of curved panels to the open cut tunnel. Experimental data on the performance of the joint is required due to insufficient design criteria. The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural performance of real size, composite materials curved panels. To achieve this goal, curved panels were constructed and bending performance was tested. A numerical analysis was also performed and compared with the results of the test. The results of the test showed that the average load was 757.6 kN and the average displacement of bottom was measured at 53.12 mm. Compression stress on the upper flange and tensile stress on the lower flange were within acceptable limits of 50% of the allowable stress.

In the 1930s, The Architectural Association of Joseon run the ‘Architectural Material Display’ on the 2nd floor of the Japan Life Insurance Building in Hwanggumjeong(currently Euljiro street).

The purpose of this research is to investigate the type and characteristics of architectural materials distributed in Northeast Asia around the 1930s, the region of sale, affiliated companies by closely analyzing the 『建築資料型錄』.

Lithium-ion batteries have been considered the most important devices to power mobile or small-sized devices due to their high energy density. LixCoO2 has been studied as a cathode material for the Li-ion battery. However, the limitation of its capacity impedes the development of high capacity cathode materials with Ni, Mn, etc. in them. The substitution of Mn and Ni for Co leads to the formation of solid solution phase LiNixMnyCo1-x-yO2 (NMC, both x and y < 1), which shows better battery performance than unsubstituted LiCoO2. However, despite a high discharge capacity in the Ni-rich compound (Ni > 0.8 in the metal site), poor cycle retention capability still remains to be overcome. In this study, aiming to improve the stability of the physical and chemical bonding, we investigate the stabilization effect of Ca in the Ni-rich layered compound Li(Ni0.83Co0.12Mn0.05)O2, and then Ca is added to the modified secondary particles to lower the degree of cationic mixing of the final particles. For the optimization of the final grains added with Ca, the Ca content (x = 0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 at.%) versus Li is analyzed.

The objective of this study was to estimate physical properties and fishing performances of net twine with improved PBS copolymer resin (Bio-new), the existing PBS/PBAT blending resin (Bio-old) and commercial Nylon (Nylon). The tensile strength of Bio-new monofilament was equal to Bio-old and the elongation of Bio-new was about 6 % higher than that of Bio-old in wet condition. The physical properties tests were carried out to estimate breaking load and stiffness in dry and wet conditions, respectively. In the results, the breaking load of Nylon netting was the highest whereas the elongation of Bio-new was 1.4 times higher than that of Nylon netting in wet condition. The breaking load of Bio-old netting was about 9.2 % higher than that of Bio-new netting. However, the elongation of the Bio-new netting was about 3% higher than that of Bio-old. The stiffness of the Bio-new compared to Bio-old was improved about 34 % in dry condition and about 32 % in wet condition. The filed experiments of the fishing performance were conducted with three kinds of drift nets with different netting materials in the coastal sea of Jeju. The each experimental drift net made of different materials showed the similar fishing performance. Bio-old drift net yielded less catches of small sized yellow croaker than other drift nets. The netting materials affected the fishing performance and length distribution of catches in the drift nets.

The bond property is mightily important in asphalt construction site as overlay, post-cutting overlay and new establishment of asphalt pavement. If the bonding between the lower and upper pavements isn't approriately applied, the slipping phenomenon can happen due to the tensile stress and shear stress. It can resultantly take the forms of the rutting, failure and other damages. Moreover, the greater damage phenomenon from the intense reflection cracking can be generated when the appropriate methods regarding the cracks or failures on the lower pavement aren't conducted and the bonding with its pavements isn't properly applied. In this regard, the researched content on the existing research is shown below. The types of asphalt emulsion applied to the pavement construction site are classified as Tack-Coat and Prime-Coat in South Korea. The application purpose of Tack-Coat is to bond the pavements comprised of the rigid material. And the application objective of Prime-Coat is to attach the layers consisting the disturbed materials. The best performance related to the optimum application rates depends on the type or property of the emulsified asphalt materials. To solve these phenomenons, the various researches have been globally done. The test methods to obtain the optimum application rates of the asphalt emulsion vary in different organizations or countries. The objective of this research is to develop the tester for Tack-Coat bonding property in accordance with the standards and circumstances of the pavement construction in South Korea. In the nation, the application rate of Tack-Coat is presented as 0.3 l/m2 ~ 0.6 l/m2 in the construction specification and pavement design guideline published in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT), but there aren't the specific suggestions. And, it depends on the superintendents or the ordering bodies in the construction sites. In that regard, the objectives of this paper are listed below. First, Suggestion of the test methods regarding the Interlayer Shear Strength in accordance with the domestic construction conditions and standards. Second, Development of the tester for conducting various tests using a tester. Last, Development of the predictive model for the optimum application rates of the emulsified asphalt.

It has been recognized that the performance of pavements is closely related to the properties of the underlying unbound layers and subgrade. It has also been recognized that unbound pavement materials possess a complex nature and often exhibit nonlinear behaviors [1, 2]. The Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) is founded on the use of resilient modulus as the primary input parameter when characterizing unbound pavement materials [3, 4]. The resilient moduli of unbound materials are typically determined by performing repeated load triaxial (RLT) tests in the laboratory. Due to that laboratory resilient modulus tests require sophisticated equipment and trained operators following complicated test procedures, many transportation agencies may not have access to the laboratory facility and opt to correlate resilient modulus with field tests [5]. The long-term pavement performance (LTPP) program offers a large and diverse database that includes a range of laboratory-derived and field-derived properties for unbound materials of many in-service pavement sections. This study is aimed to utilize LTPP data to develop a correlation between the laboratory-derived resilient modulus and a field-derived parameter, dynamic cone penetration index (DCPI) for unbound aggregate materials. Data extracted from the LTPP database were subjected to a thorough quality check to ensure that the data are of good quality and without errors. One-on-one univariate regression was first performed to examine the significance of different variables, including DCPI and some physical properties such as dry unit weight, water content, plasticity index, percent passing No.200 sieve. The physical properties that show strong correlation were selected to be combined with field test parameter (DCPI) to conduct a multivariate regression analysis. A statistical model was developed for the prediction of resilient modulus of unbound aggregates from the DCP test parameters and physical properties. The model predicted a separate data set that did not participate in the correlation analysis, suggesting the success of applying the DCP test in evaluating the resilient modulus of pavement unbound aggregate materials.

Recently in Construction field, It has been the big issues to produce an Eco-friendly Construction material and to solve problems about the First grade–Aggregates’ supply&demand. While the Eco-friendly Construction materials which are refurbished and reproduced from construction wastes and industrial by-products have a great deal of effectiveness such as cost or CO2 emission reduction, there is an additional logistical cost due to go through with some processes for recycle such as Intermediary treatments or management and collection of materials. Furthermore, Demand of the First grade-Aggregates is rising and spreading all over the nation for the improvement of Road driving performance, But there is also an additional logistical cost for supply&demand due to the cost of transport growth by sites of construction. In this study, the process and methodology of the new material supply and demand route routings using the Arc Gis Program and the calculation of the available distance through economic analysis are presented. After examining the cost status of construction materials and logistics costs by examining the literature review and related industry, economic feasibility was obtained by comparing the price of general construction materials with the total cost of comparable materials and logistics costs. After an economic analysis, ArcGis3.0 was used to visualize the materials’ supply&demand route and As a result, We can observe the economically secured route from the construction materials’ production plant to where the domestic transportable route and nodes mapped. Throughout the study, the pre-groundwork for an efficient use of the construction materials is able to be prepared and It will be helpful to invigorate supply&demand. In addition to the economic analysis in the future, If the real-time traffic information (traffic volume, speed, environment, etc.) and the performance (structure, functionality, etc.) of each construction materials are reflected, It will be possible to build a decision system for selecting construction materials which meet consumers’ various needs.

Road network in the Mekong Delta is mostly coastal and river routes, then they are often flooded when the floods come in. As a result, the foundation and pavement are destroyed, reduced life expectancy, resulting in unsafety in traffic, cost of maintenance and repairs…. This paper establishes the technical conditions for the calculation on the flexible pavement working in the wet conditions (so flooded) based on the maximum usage of available materials in the provinces in the Mekong Delta. Simultaneously, we propose the flooded flexible pavement under the current climate change conditions.
