벤토나이트 완충재의 열수거동 실험에서는 고준위폐기물처분장 완충재로 유력하게 고려되고 있는 국산 벤토나이트를 대상으로 열수특성을 규명하고, 또 그 결과를 바탕으로 KRS 처분환경에서 벤토나이트 완충재의 장기건전성을 평가하였다. 실험결과, 벤토나이트 완충재의 열수반응은 주 구성광물인 스멕타이트의 일라이트화를 통해 진행되었으며, 온도, 농도, pH는 이러한 일라이트화에 중요한 열수반응인자 역할을 하였다. KRS 처분환경에 대한 국산벤토나이트 완충재의 장기건전성을 분석한 결과, 정상상태에서는 벤토나이트 완충재가 오랜 기간 동안 방벽재기능을 유지하였지만, 보수적인 조건에서는 약 년이 경과했을 때 벤토나이트 완충재를 구성하는 스멕타이트의 50%이상이 일라이트로 전환되어 방벽재로서의 팽윤능력을 상실할 수 있음을 예상할 수 있었다.

This study was undertaken to assess tear volume and stability in contaet lens wearers. Thirty-four young subjects(mean age 23. 79±3.1 years, 8 men and 26 women) without overt oeular disease were reeruited and eategorized into two groups based on eontact lens wear(soft lens, RGP lens). Measures from both eyes were made using a Sehirmer test, phenol red thread(PRT) and tear break time(tBUT) before eontaet lens wear, and at the time of 1 week, 1month and 3 month after lens wear. For the eomplete group of subjeets, the average Sehirmer wetting length was 13.76±8.34 mm, the average PRT wetting length was 17.42±6.26 mm and the tBUT averaged 4.77±2.69 see. The intereye differenees averaged 2.62±3.54 mm for Sehirmer test, 3.91±4.12 mm for PRT and 0.80±0.62 see for tBUT. Compared with the eontrol group the Sehirmer data showed a trend to be inereased at the first week but it reeovered after 1 month of RGP lens wear. After 3 months of RGP lens wear, the PRT and tBUT data showed a trend to be deereased to 27% and 21% respeetively. In the soft lens group, all the tear measures did not show any differenees at the first week eompared with the eontrol group. But after 3 months of soft lens wear, the Sehirmer and PRT data showed a trend to be deereased to 13% and 17% respeetively. As a result, wearing eontaet lenses seems to ehange the tear volume and stability. RGP lens seems to stimulate the reflex tearing but deerease the lower meniseus tear volume and tear stability, and soft lens seems not to influenee the tear film but to deerease the reflex tearing and lower meniseus tear volume.

본 연구에서는 설계민감도 해석기법을 사용하여 구조물의 안정성, 즉 좌굴을 고려한 형상 최적설계를 수행하였다. 형상 변수를 고려한 설계민감도 해석을 수행하기 위해 전미분 개념을 도입하고, 이를 이용하여 연속체기반의 변분방정식을 미분하여 민감도공식을 유도하였다. 기존의 유한차분법과 비교할 때 설계민감도 해석법의 장점은 설계변수의 갯수에 상관없이 매우 적은 해석횟수를 가지고도 민감도를 더 정확하게 계산할 수 있으며, 해석결과만을 이용하여 민감도계산을 수행하므로 상용 해석 소프트웨어를 활용할 수 있다는 것이다. 한편 좌굴문제를 다룰 때는 일반적으로 보나 쉘 같은 구조요소를 이용하지만 본 연구에서는 솔리드 요소를 이용한 연속체 모델로 고려하였는데 그 이유는 연속체 모델을 이용하면 뚱뚱한 형상뿐만 아니라 보나 쉘 같은 슬림(slim) 한 모델을 모두 해석할 수 있기 때문이다 설계민감도를 활용하여 여러 가지 좌굴문제에 대해 형상 설계민감도 계산 및 최적설계를 수행하였다. 그 결과 실행함수가 매우 빠르게 수렴하는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 설계변수가 많아지고 해석시간이 길어질수록 더 효율적인 것을 알 수 있었다.

대형 구조물에 작용하는 큰 외력은 능동 제어 장치의 제어입력에 포화를 종종 유발한다. 그리고 구조물이 대형화될수록 질량, 강성 등의 파라미터들에 대한 정확한 값을 알기가 어려워지므로, 수학적인 모델과 실제 구조물과의 모델링 오차는 파라미터들에 대한 불확실성으로 제어기의 설계 시에 고려되어야 한다. 그러므로 건축 및 토목 구조물에 대한 능동 진동 제어 방법을 다룰 때 제어기의 안정성을 보장하기 위하여 제어입력의 포화와 계의 파라미터 불확실성을 동시에 고려한 강인 포화 제어기의 설계가 필요하다. 여기에서는 건물의 능동 진동 제어에 연구 및 적용되어진 여러 제어기들 중에서 선형 최적 제어기 LQR, 수정된 뱅뱅 제어기, 포화 슬라이딩 모드 제어기, 강인 포화 제어기의 안정성을 살펴본다. 특히 제안된 강인 포화 제어기의 필요성을 보이기 위하여 LQR, 수정된 뱅뱅 제어기, 포화 슬라이딩 모드 제어기들이 제어입력의 포화나 파라미터 불확실성이 존재하는 경우에 불안정해지는 현상들을 보인다. 2자유도 진동계에 대한 수치 예제와 능동 질량 감쇠기(AMD)를 이용한 2층 구조물에 대한 실험을 통하여 강인 포화 제어기의 강인 안정성을 보인다.

This paper describes the experiments for investigating the effects of thermal stability of several commercial carpet mate materials. The melting point and thermal decomposition temperature was measured by means of a differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) in air condition. The DSC data and burning test results of nylon bulked continuous filament(N-BCF) yarn 100%, nylon(NY), polypropylene(PP), and a new material named polytrimethyleneterephthalate(PTT) were analysed to obtain the effect on their thermal stability. Conclusively, we observed that PTT and PP were approximately 380℃ and 240℃ to start the thermal decomposition, respectively. In other words, PTT is thermally the most stable material for carpet manufacturing.

The phase stability of tetragonal phase in Y-TZP was investigated in terms of the distribution of grain sizes and heat-treating atmosphere. Y-TZP with various grain sizes were prepared using duration time at 1600℃ as experimental parameter. Accumulated grain size distributions were built from the SEM micrographs and the amount of tetragonal phase were measured using XRD. Both results were compared to determine the critical grain size before and after heat-treatment in vacuum. The critical grain size drastically decreased compared with the small increase of average grain size due to the autocatalytic effect which critically affects the tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation. After heat-treatment in reductive atmosphere critical grain size relatively increased due to the stabilization of tetragonal phase. The formation of oxygen vacancies during heat-treatment was ascribed to the increase of stability.

Cu- nanocomposite powders were synthesized by combining high-energy ball-milling of Cu-Ti-B mixtures and subsequent self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS). Cu-40wt.% powders were produced by SHS reaction and ball-milled. The milled SHS powder was mixed with Cu powders by ball milling to produce Cu-2.5wt.% composites. particles less than 250nm were formed in the copper matrix after SHS-reaction. The releative density, electrical conductivity and hardness of specimens sintered at were nearly 98%, 83%IACS and 71HRB, respectively. After heat treatment at 850 to for 2 hours under Ar atmosphere, hardness was descedned by 15%. Our Cu- composite showed good thermal stability at eleveated temperature.

The preparation of metallic glass composite powders was accomplished by the mechanical alloying of a pure Ti, Cu, Ni, Sn and carbon nanotube (CNT) powder mixture after 8 h milling. In the ball-milled composites, the initial CNT particles were dissolved in the Ti-based alloy glassy matrix. The bulk metallic glass composite was successfully prepared by vacuum hot pressing the as-milled CNT/ metallic glass composite powders. A significant hardness increase with the CNT additions was observed for the consolidated composite compacts.

Ti-Cu-Ni-Sn quaternary amorphous alloys of Ti50Cu32Ni15Sn3, Ti50Cu25Ni20Sn5, and Ti50Cu23Ni20Sn7 composition were prepared by mechanical alloying in a planetary high-energy ball-mill (AGO-2). The amorphization of all three alloys was found to set in after milling at 300rpm speed for 2h. A complete amorphization was observed for Ti50Cu32Ni15Sn3 and Ti50Cu25Ni20Sn5 after 30h and 20h of milling, respectively. Differential scanning calorimetry analyses revealed that the thermal stability increased in the order of Ti50Cu32Ni15Sn3, Ti50Cu25Ni20Sn5, and Ti50Cu23Ni20Sn7.

The fracture behavior and mechanical characteristics of sintered rare-earth magnets were investigated. It shows that the fracture behavior and bending strength of the magnets obviously exhibit anisotropy. Sm-Co magnets tend to cleavage fracture in the close-packed (0001) plane or in the (10 11 ) plane. The fracture mechanism of Nd2Fe14B magnet mainly appears to be intergranular fracture. The anisotropy of fracture behavior and mechanical strength of sintered rare-earth magnets is caused mainly by the strong crystal-structure anisotropy and the grain alignment texture. The effects of Nd content, and Pr, Dy substitution on the impact stability of Nd2Fe14B magnets were also reported.

In this study, the colloidal stability and sedimentation behavior of crystalline particles (300nm) in various organic solvents have been investigated by means of a backscattered light flux profile (Turbiscan). The backscattered light flux profiles revealed that the nanoparticles were readily sedimented in water, methyl alcohol, and ethyl alcohol due to a flocculation-induced particle growth, while a particle coalescence and a sedimentation of the nanoparticles were hardly observed in isopropyl alcohol. The migration velocities of the particle were measured as around 6.15/min, 12.53 m/min, 6.51m/min, and 0.18m/min for water, methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol, respectively, showing a remarkably slow migration of the particles in isopropyl alcohol

The accidents occurred by unstable material which is easily exploded or burnt up were caused by heat and collision under the condition of relatively low temperature without oxygen, have been reported frequently. However, the amount of the unstable material is getting higher by development of fine ceramic research area even though its dangerous characteristic is disregarded. This research studied a heat stability and measured boiling point of various carpet material. Carpet has been used in home as well as general indoor usage. Now a day, carpet material which is hardly burnt has been on commercial, but its detailed unstable conditions is not mentioned. This research reports the measurement of the initial temperature of generation heat and heat-radiation change on differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The DSC data of nylon bulked continuous filament (N-BCF) yam 100%, nylon (NY), poly propylene (PP), and a new material named polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) are studied and researched about the effect of them using TGA, furnace, and direct-burning experiment.
