Low-temperature in-bin drying with high-moisture paddy were demonstrated and studied under local autumn weather condition. Paddy with the initial moisture content of about 24.5 percent in the steel storage bin(diameter: 3 m, height: 3.17 m) was uniformly dried to about 15 percent by continuous blowing of ambient air (average temperature: $10.5^{\circ}C$, RH: 58 percent) in the middle part of October. The amount of grain and grain height were 4.19 M/T and 90 cm, respectively. Total fan operation time was 288 hours and airflow rate was $4.81\;m^3/min/m^3$ of paddy. Mean drying rate was 0.03 percent per hour and enery requirement for fan operation was 0.38 KWh per kg water removed.

The absorption characteristics and their physical properties of hot air, vacuum and freeze dried soybean curd powder were investigated. Absorption conditions were at 5, 15, and 25 t with $0.11\~0.93$ water activities. Equilibrium moisture content and the monolayer moisture content determined by prediction models showed highest value in the freeze dried soybean curd powder due to porous structure. Absorption energy decreased with increasing water activity was not affected by drying method. In the comparisons of the isothermal absorption models, Oswin model generally was the best fit model for isothermal adsorption of soybean curd powder.

Volume of concrete slab changes by variations of temperature and moisture after its placement. Shrinkage due to evaporation causes tensile stress in the slab when contraction of the slab is restrained by its self weight, friction with subbase, and etc. Actual tensile stress caused by the shrinkage was less than theoretically predicted stress according to previous studies. It was the stress reduction due to visco-elastic property of the early-age concrete slab partially restrained. In this study, strains of restrained circumferential, unrestrained circumferential, and unrestrained square pillar concrete specimens were measured to investigate stress reduction of the specimens with age of concrete. Elastic modulus of the concrete was measured at the age of 1, 3, 7, 14, 28 days and penetration test was performed. The stress reduction was calculated by input the test results into theoretical equations suggested by previous researchers. The stress reduction of the restrained concrete specimens will be applied to design of concrete pavements based on results of the study.

열화학 기상합성법을 이용한 탄소나노튜브의 성장에서 촉매 금속 층의 형성 공정은 탄소나노튜브의 직경 및 길이를 제어해주는 가장 중요한 요소이다. 탄소나노튜브의 대량합성을 위해 자성유체를 이용한 촉매 금속 층의 손쉬운 형성공정을 개발하였다. 수용성 폴리비닐알코올과 마그네타이트 나노 입자들이 혼합된 자성유체를 다양한 기판에 스핀 코팅하여 촉매 금속 층을 간편하게 형성할 수 있었다. 자성유체 제조 시 혼합된 수용성 폴리비닐알코올은 자성유체용액의 점성을 증가 시켜 주었으며, 이러한 점성의 증가는 스핀 코팅 시 용액과 기판간의 접착력을 증대시켜 주었다. 또한 건조 과정 이후에도 잔류되어 탄소나노튜브 합성 공정 중에 촉매금속이 응집되는 현상을 방지 차여 균일한 입자 크기를 유지하도록 하였다. 이는 고밀도의 수직 배열된 탄소나노튜브의 성장의 직접적인 원인으로 생각된다. 또한 탄소나노 튜브의 대량 합성을 위해서 Si 기판 치에 알루미나와 금속 기판에서도 탄소나노튜브의 성장을 시도하였다.

본 연구에서는 PbZr(sub)0.53Ti(sub)0.47O$_3$(PZT) 박막을 복수 도포함에 따른 박막내의 응력을 온도의 함수로 실시간(in situ) 측정하였으며, 응력발생의 원인에 박막의 건조, 열분해(pyrolysis), 치밀화 및 결정화 현상과 연관시켜 설명하였다. 도포직후 단층박막에 생성된 55MPa의 인장응력은 가열됨에 따라$ 300^{\circ}C$-$350^{\circ}C$에서 최대 145MPa로 증가하였으며, 박막내의 응력은 모든 온도구간에서 항상 인장응력을 나타내었더. 다층도포시 $650^{\circ}C$까지 열처리 주기를 완료한 층이 두꺼워질수록 새로 도포한 층의 영향은 점차 감소하였으며, 9층박막에 이르러서는 가열과 냉각에 따라 응력이 동일하게 변화하였다. 응력측정 결과 다층박막의 치밀화는 $350^{\circ}C$에서 시작되어 $520^{\circ}C$-$550^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 완료되는 것으로 나타났으며 치밀화가 시작하는 온도는 미세경도 측정결과와 일치하였다. $PbTiO_3$(PT)와 달리 PZT 다층박막은 Si 기판 위에서 perovskite로의 결정화가 일어나지 않았다.

Effect of drying methods, such as natural solar drying, hot air drying$(at\;60^{\circ}C\;and\;105^{\circ}C)$, vacuum drying and freeze drying methods, on the quality of laver were investigated to develop optimum processing conditions for preparation of laver powder. Appreciable amount of laver pigments such as chlorophyll, carotenoid and phycobilin were lost during washing and drying process. Their loss was affected significantly by the method of drying. Among the methods tested, high temperature air drying was the worst in retaining laver pigment, while freeze drying was the best. Loss of vitamin C which was in the range of 75-99% was also affected by the method of drying. Isotherms for laver powder shelved sigmoidal shape and monomolecular layer moisture content of both laver powder(Porphyra dentata and Porphyra tenera) determined by the BET equation was 6.30%(dry basis). Laver powders prepared with Porphyra dentata and classified with 50-, 80- and 100- mesh sieves showed monomodal size distribution with the high frequency at 110-120, 100-110 and $80\;{\mu}m$, respectively, which indicated that size or laver powder was homogeneous.

To investigate geomorphic development of alluvial plains and climatic environment change during the late Holocene carbon dating, soil organic carbon analysis and humus analysis of sediments from alluvial plain of Hampyeongcheon basin were performed. The lowest peat layer was formed under warm and humid climates, which is considered to correspond to the Atlantic period in the Holocene. Yellowish brown sandy clay layer was deposited in the natural levee, which we think were deposited in the generally warm and dry climates. The carbon dating age is 1,879-1,532 BC, and this period correspond to the Sub-boreal period in the Holocene. Light brown clay layer is assumed to have been deposited in transitional environment from the natural levee to the back marsh. The climatic environment was warm and humid, which is considered as transitional period from the Sub-boreal to the Sub-Atlantic in the Holocene. Light yellowish brown and light brown clay layer of the upper part are regarded as sediments of the back marsh. Light yellowish brown clay layer was deposited in the cold and dry climates, which is considered to correspond to the Sub-Atlantic period in the Holocene. Light brown clay layer was deposited in the warm and dry climates. The carbon dating age is 211-427 AD, this period corresponds to the Post Roman Warm Period in the Holocene.

Conventional designs of landfill covers use geosynthetics such as geomembrane and GCL, and clay liners to lower the permeability of final covers of landfill sites. However, differential settlement and the variation of temperature or humidity in landfill sites cause the development of cracks or structural damage inside the final cover. This study examined the application of a Self Recovering Sustainable Liner (SRSL) as an alternative landfill final cover material. SRSL consists of double layers, which have chemicals, can generate precipitates filling the pores of the layers by chemical reaction. The interface material forms an impermeable layer and in case of internal cracks, the reactants of the two layers migrate towards the crack and heal it by forming another liner. In this study the applicability of SRSL material for landfill final cover was examined by performing flexible wall permeameter tests to prove that the hydraulic conductivity is lower than the regulations and unconfined compression tests to judge whether the strength satisfies the restriction for the landfill final cover. Furthermore, the environmental impacts on the permeability and strength were evaluated. The experimental results show that the SRSL has lower hydraulic conductivity and higher strength than the regulations and is little influenced by climatic changes such as wet/dry or freeze/thaw process.

This study was conducted for evaluation the geological, physical, and chemical properties of domestic sand by analyzing about 4,800 quality data of natural sand from river and land area surveyed until 2023 through the aggregate resource survey conducted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. The average depth of the Quaternary unconsolidated sedimentary layer in Korea, which includes a sand layer, is about 10m (maximum depth 66m). The thickness of the sand layer within the sedimentary layer is most dominant in the range of 0.5m to 4.0m. This accounts for about 70% of the entire sand layer. In the sand layer, the ratio of sand, gravel, and clay is 60:20:10. Regardless of the provenance or geology, the sand is mainly composed of quartz, plagioclase, and K-feldspar, and the minor minerals are muscovite, biotite, chlorite, magnetite, epidote. The sand includes in 45~75% of quartz, 5~20% of plagioclase and K-feldspar, each other. And other minor minerals are included in 10%. The average grain size of sand is 0.5mm to 1.0mm, which accounts for 44% of sand samples. The water absorption rate and soundness are estimated to be suitable for aggregate quality standard in almost all sand, and the absolute dry density is suitable for 66%.
