In this study, the effects on the soil compaction were investigated through the various testing method by changing the number of layers, the number of blows per layer and drop height. The results obtained in this study were summarized as follows. 1. Soil compaction was largely influenced by maximum grain size of soil in case of small testing mold diameter. 2. The compaction effect showed best in the well graded soil. In this test, compaction effect showed the best value in the soil which contained about 30~40% of particles finer than No. 200 sieves although it would vary according to the content of coarse grained soil. 3. Though the compaction method was changed at the level of compaction energy fixed, the effect of soil compaction showed little. 4. The increment of compaction energy increased the effect of soil compaction, but over a certain limit the soil compaction showed little on the effect. 5. In the method to increase the compaction energy for the purpose of the most reasonable effect, the soil compaction effect was differently shown according to the grain size distribution of the soil.

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is useful technique because of its low cost and high throughput capability for the fabrication of sub-micrometer patterns which has potential applications in micro-optics, magnetic memory devices, bio sensors, and photonic crystals. Usually, a chemical surface treatment of the stamp is needed to ensure a clean release after imprinting and to protect the expensive original master against contamination. Meanwhile, adhesion promoter between resin and substrate is also important in the nanoscale pattern. In this work, we have investigated the effect of surface treatment using silane coupling agent as release layer and adhesion promoter for UV-Nanoimprint lithography. Uniform SAM (self-assembled monolayer) could be fabricated by vapor deposition method. Vapor phase process eliminates the use of organic solvents and greatly simplifies the handling of the sample. It was also proven that 3-acryloxypropyl methyl dichlorosilane (APMDS) could strongly improve the adhesion force between resin and substrate compared with common planarization layer such as DUV-30J or oxygen plasma treatment.

In the present study is focused on the evaluation of the shrinkage characteristics of mix proportion using viscosity agent for printing. Also, another purpose is to compare the shrinkage properties of the mold cast specimen with the additive manufactured specimen using 3D printing techniques. Viscosity agent makes the shrinkage was reduced by an average of 25% (as of 56 days) compared to the reference mix. The effects of reduced shrinkage were also founded, with a reduction of about 15% (as of 28 days).As a result of evaluating the shrinkage using the additive manufactured specimen and the mold cast specimen prepared by the printing mix, the shrinkage of the additive manufactured specimen was reduced by about 25% (based on 28 days). Based on the results of this study, it is possible to predict the shrinkage rate and the occurrence of cracks due to shrinkage on the printing of cement-based composite materials using 3D printing.

The display that provides information to us through the visual sense is a very important information transmission means by intuitively transmitting information, and the liquid crystal display (LCD) is the most widely used information transmission display. In this paper, we studied solvent assisted micromolding as an alternative for the rubbing that is essential to align the liquid crystals in LCD and successfully aligned the liquid crystal molecules by constructing the nanostructures on conventional polyimide alignment layer. When generating the nanostructures on the polyimide film, there was a competitive correlation between the dissolution effect of the polymer by the solvent and the capillary effect of the polyimide molecules into the nanostructures of the mold depending on the process temperature. It was possible to form nanostructures with high step by deriving the optimum temperature. These nanostructures were able to align the liquid crystal molecules uniformly and demonstrated that they could form a desirable pretilt angle.

Most studies have conducted cryogenic triaxial compression tests with frozen specimens prepared in a separate mold by one-directional freezing. This method has the potential to generate residual stress in a frozen specimen and cannot be adopted to simulate the application of the artificial ground freezing method in the field. Therefore, in this study, novel equipment and procedure for the cryogenic triaxial compression test were proposed to overcome the limitations of existing test methods. Therefore, the mechanical characteristics of frozen sand, considering the effect of temperature and confining pressure, were evaluated. As the freezing temperature decreased, the brittleness of frozen sand increased, and the strength increased due to a decrease in the unfrozen water content and an increase in the ice strength. A higher confining pressure resulted in an increase in interparticle friction and the pressure melting phenomenon, which caused strength reduction. Thus, it was found that the mechanical behaviors of frozen sand were simultaneously affected by both temperature and confining pressure.

Platinum nanoparticles were added to a mixture of HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), NVP (N-vinyl pyrrolidone) and MMA (methyl methacrylate) in a mould at various concentrations. The resulting mixture was copolymerized by heating at $70^{\circ}C$ for 40 min, $80^{\circ}C$ for 40 min, and $100^{\circ}C$ for 40 min, respectively. The physical properties of contact lens were then measured. The oxygen transmissibility of $9{\sim}15{\times}10^{-9}$ cm/s mL $O_2$/mL ${\times}$ mmHg, water content of 34.22~35.52%, refractive index of 1.432~1.435, visible transmittance of 88.3~91.2% and tensile strength of 0.141~0.152 kgf were obtained. The addition of platinum nanoparticles to the polymer allowed the contact lens to have various colors without artificial coloring agents. The polymer materials satisfied the physical properties required to produce contact lenses, making the material suitable to be applied as a functional material for ophthalmological purposes.

Interest in the exterior design of buildings has increased in recent years. Demand for various architectural structures is increasing. However, domestic form liner and design are still limited. Thus, this research uses 3D printers to omit the existing mold production process. Use digital data to produce products economically using various materials. It can be hoped that extending the lifespan of the concrete structure will reduce the cost of saving costs. The purpose of this study is to utilize the 3D printers to develop the design of a suitable formative shape for the purposes of the concrete. In this study, 3D printed form enables the possibility that the actual application is practical. Consideration for the artistic design of the art line was proposed for the purpose of considering the use of concrete structures for concrete structures.

Reducing optical reflection in the visible light range, in order to increase the share of transmitted light and avoid the formation of ghost images in imaging, is important for polymer lens applications. In this study, polymer lenses with refractive indices of n=1.56, 1.60, and 1.67 were fabricated by the injection-molding method with a polymer lens monomer, dibutyltin dichloride as the catalyst and an alkyl phosphoric ester as the release agent. To investigate their anti-reflection (AR) effects, various AR coating structures, viz. a multi-layer AR coating structure, tri-layer AR coating structure with a discrete approximation Gaussian gradient-index profile, and tri-layer AR coating structure with a quarter-wavelength approximation, were designed and coated on the polymer lens by an E-beam evaporation system. The optical properties of the polymer lenses were characterized by UV-visible spectrometry. The material properties of the thin films, refractive index and surface roughness, were analyzed by ellipsometry and AFM, respectively. The most effective AR coating structure of the polymer lens with low refractive index, n=1.56, was the both side coating of multi-layer AR coating structure. However, both side coating of the tri-layered discrete approximation Gaussian gradient-index profile AR coating structure gave comparable results to the both side coating of the multi-layer AR coating structure for the polymer lens with a high refractive index of n=1.67.

The hydration process of Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM) used for backfill is the primary factor to determine the construction period. The objective of this study is to monitor the hydration process of CLSM using the Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) and to establish the relationship between dielectric constant and compressive strength. The CLSM specimen is composed of cement, flyash, silt, sand, accelerator, and water. The material characteristics of the CLSM including flow, unit weight, compressive strength are investigated. To measure the dielectric constant of the CLSM during the curing time, TDR probe incorporated with a mold and a reflectometer are used. Experimental results show that the dielectric constant remains constant at early stage, and then decreases as the curing time increases. In addition, the dielectric constant is related to the compressive strength in inverse power function. This paper suggests that the TDR technique may be used as a non-destructive testing method in order to estimate the compressive strength of the CLSM mixture under construction.
