Optical characteristics and structural changes depending on CuO content in phosphate glasses that are used in near-infrared (near-IR) filters were investigated. With phosphate glasses that contain 1-9 mol% CuO, changes in optical transmittance, optical absorption, and color coordinate were measured with a UV-VIS spectrophotometer. An XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis was performed to determine valence of copper ion that influences optical characteristics in near-IR filter glasses. Structural changes in glasses depending on CuO content were also analyzed by FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared) and Raman spectrophotometers. From the UV-VIS spectrophotometer results, strong absorption peaks at 220 & 900 nm were found and transmittance was decreased. The color coordinates of the glasses were shifted to the green color direction with CuO addition for increasing absorption of long wavelength range spectra, in spite of the amount of Cu2+, which gives a blue color to glasses, and which was increased in XPS results. Also, structural de-polymerization of glasses with CuO addition were found by FT-IR and Raman results.

This study was aimed at analyzing the structural relationship among such factors as industrial environment, technological cooperation, technological innovation performance and management performance that are essential to technological innovation of small and medium-sized companies. For this aim, an analysis was conducted to determine which of the factors in industrial environment has impact on technological cooperation of small and medium-sized companies. An empirical analysis was also performance to find what kind of effects the technological cooperation may have on technological innovation and management performance. From the analyses, it became known that: first, changes in industrial environment have influence on technical cooperation factors including production technology, technical information, technical manpower and fund for technology that are assorted by means of factorial analysis; second, the technological cooperation of small and medium-sized companies has impact on their technological innovation performance; and third, the technological cooperation of small and medium-sized companies has impact on management performance.

This study investigated the dependence of the various sputtering conditions (Ar pressure: 2~10 mTorr, Power: 50~150 W) and thickness (50~1200 nm) of Si thin film on the electrochemical properties, microstructural properties and the capacity fading of a Si thin film anode. A Si layer and a Ti buffer layer were deposited on Copper foil by RF-magnetron sputtering. At 10 mTorr, the 50 W sample showed the best capacity of 3323 mAh/g, while the 100 W sample showed the best capacity retention of 91.7%, also at 10 mTorr. The initial capacities and capacity retention in the samples apart from the 50W sample at 10 mTorr were enhanced as the Ar pressure and power increased. This was considered to be related to the change of the microstructure and the surface morphology by various sputtering conditions. In addition, thinner Si film anodes showed better cycling performance. This phenomenon is caused by the structural stress and peeling off of the Si layer by the high volume change of Si during the charge/discharge process.

The structural and physicochemical properties of dried aloe vera gel by DIS (dewatering impregnation soaking) process under optimum conditions were investigated. FT-IR spectra for dried samples of DIS aloes showed the typical patterns of standard aloe polysaccharide, and surface structures by SEM (scanning electron microscopy) were similar to a gel-like structure. In case of physicochemical properties of dried aloe samples by DIS process, solubilities and swelling powers of control (not osmotic treated aloe), DIS (S) and DIS (G), samples treated by osmotic solution of 60% sucrose/0.25% NaCl and 50% glucose/0.5% NaCl, were 48.3-57.3% and 8.3-11.7%, respectively, showing no significant differences among samples, but swelling power of DIS (PEG), sample treated by using 50% polyethylene glycol as an osmotic agent was about 5 times higher that of control. Also, water holding capacities of control, DIS (S) and DIS (G) were similar to each other, but that of DIS (PEG) was about 5 times higher that of control. Oil holding capacities of control and DIS aloes maintained the 50.9-86.4% levels of water holding capacities showing no significant differences among samples. Rehydration ratio of DIS (PEG) aloes were significantly dependent on the temperature of rehydrated solvent (water), and rehydration ratio of not-fileted aloe was about two folds higher than that of fileted aloe.

국내 LTPP(Long Term Pavement Performance) 연구에서 섬유보강 아스팔트 포장의 성능을 평가하기 위해, 국도 1호선 구간에 일반 아스팔트 포장과 섬유보강 아스팔트 포장을 각각 시공하였으며, 각각의 단면에 포장체 구조적 거동을 측정할 수 있는 계측센서를 매설하였다. 본 연구에서는 국내 LTPP구간에서 수행된 차량재하시험과 FWD시험의 결과를 바탕으로 섬유보강 아스팔트 포장의 구조적 성능을 평가하였다. 본 연구결과, 차량재하시험에서 섬유보강재를 사용할 경우 표층하단부의 변형률이 크게 저감되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 일반 아스팔트 포장보다 응력중립축이 상승하여 일반 아스팔트포장은 중간층 하단에서 압축변형이 발생하는 반면에, 섬유보강 아스팔트포장은 중간층 하단에서 인장변형이 발생하였다. 반면 기층 하단부에서의 인장변형률은 두 포장형식 모두 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. FWD 시험에서도 섬유보강재를 사용할 경우 약 24% 정도 표면 처짐 량이 저감되는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합하여 볼 때, 섬유보강 아스팔트 포장이 소성변형에 대한 저항성을 증진시킬 수 있다고 판단되며, 향후에 포장상태조사를 통해 장기포장공용성에 대한 연구가 수반되어야 할 것이다.

사용후핵연료 심지층처분에 있어서 처분용기의 건전성 확보는 내부에 적재되어 있는 사용후 핵연료로부터 방사성물질이 누출되는 것을 방지하고 격리하여 처분장의 안전성을 보증하기 위한 필수적인 인자이다. 이러한 처분용기는 심지층 처분의 목적인 방사성 독성이 인간 및 자연환경에 영향을 미치지 않도록 장기간 동안 격리하고 누출을 지연시키기 위한 공학적 방벽의 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. 심지층 처분장 설계시 주요한 요건은 처분시스템의 안전성을 유지를 위하여 처분용기에 적재되어 있는 폐기물로부터 발생된 붕괴열로 인하여 완충재의 온도가 100를 넘지 않도록 하는 것이다. 또한, 처분용기는 지하 심부 500 m 깊이에서의 수압과 완충재의 팽윤압 등 하중에 구조적 건전성을 유지하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 직접 처분대상으로 고려하고 있는 중수로(CANDU) 사용후핵연료에 대한 처분용기의 개선된 개념을 설정하고, 심지층 처분환경에서의 열적 및 구조적 안정성을 분석하였다. 열적 안정성 해석결과 처분터널 및 처분공 간격이 40 m, 3 m 인 경우 처분 후 37년이 경과한 후에 처분용기 표면온도가 최고 온도에 도달하며, 이때 온도는 88.9 로서 처분장 온도제한 요건(100 )에 만족하였다. 또한, 정상적인 경우와 극한 상황에 따른 하중에 대한 처분용기 구조해석 결과 안전율은 각각 2.9와 1.33 으로 나타나 심지층 처분환경에서 처분용기는 구조적 건정성을 유지하는 것으로 판단되었다.

The Location Based Services (LBS) comprise spatial information and mobile technology allow users to receive various services based on Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Although, spatial information based services are very useful, it has lots of possibility to damage privacy protection. But the contents of the legislation by government have problems conflicted between protection of a person's location information and invigoration LBS. Therefore, in this study suggest a causal model to deal with user satisfaction and factors affecting spatial information based services to customer perspective. The proposed research model is tested empirically with one hundred and forty one usable questionnaires and partial least square (PLS) method. Experimental results showed that the usefulness, playfulness, and service quality play a prominent role in influencing the spatial information services satisfaction compared to other factors. But, easy of use and perceived risk are not significant.

In this study, BaTiO3 thin films were grown by RF-magnetron sputtering, and the effects of a post-annealing process on the structural characteristics of the BaTiO3 thin films were investigated. For the crystallization of the grown thin films, post-annealing was carried out in air at an annealing temperature that varied from 500-1000˚C. XRD results showed that the highest crystal quality was obtained from the samples annealed at 600-700˚C. From the SEM analysis, no crystal grains were observed after annealing at temperatures ranging from 500 to 600˚C; and 80 nm grains were obtained at 700˚C. The surface roughness of the BaTiO3 thin films from AFM measurements and the crystal quality from Raman analysis also showed that the optimum annealing temperature was 700˚C. XPS results demonstrated that the binding energy of each element of the thin-film-type BaTiO3 in this study shifted with the annealing temperature. Additionally, a Ti-rich phenomenon was observed for samples annealed at 1000˚C. Depth-profiling analysis through a GDS (glow discharge spectrometer) showed that a stoichiometric composition could be obtained when the annealing temperature was in the range of 500 to 700˚C. All of the results obtained in this study clearly demonstrate that an annealing temperature of 700˚C results in optimal structural properties of BaTiO3 thin films in terms of their crystal quality, surface roughness, and composition.

가압경수로(PWR)에서 배출되는 고준위폐기물을 지하 500m의 화강암 암반의 처분장에 장기간(약 10,000년 동안) 처분하기 위하여 여러 구조적 안전성 평가 수행을 통하여 처분용기모델이 개발되었다. 기존에 설계된 가압경수로용 처분용기 모델은 구조적 안전성은 문제가 없으나 너무 무거운 단점이 지적되었다. 따라서 구조적 안전성을 유지하면서 좀 더 경량화 된 처분용기모델을 개발하는 것이 요구된다. 기존의 처분용기모델이 무거워진 한가지 이유는 처분용기 개발 시 적용된 외력조건 및 안전계수 등에 대한 조건들을 너무 엄격하게 적용했기 때문이라고 사료되기 때문에 이런 조건들을 완화하여 처분용기의 재원들을 조정하여 구조해석을 다시 수행하는 것이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 설계 완성된 기존의 처분용기에 대하여 외력 조건 및 용기의 재원(두께 등) 들을 변화시키면서 구조해석을 재 수행하여 구조적 안전성 평가를 보완하였다. 이를 바탕으로 외력 조건에 따른 처분용기의 재원 등을 재 산출한다. 보완 해석 결과 기존의 122cm의 처분용기의 직경을 102cm까지 줄여 경량화 시킬 수 있음이 확인되었다.
