Material properties of the lock plate, which covers the gas-turbine blade, are studied using ultrasonic guided waves. The lock plate is a crucial part of a gas-turbine power plant. The wave velocity and attenuation coefficient are measured to investigate the changes in the material properties under three heat-treatment conditions. Compared to the destructive mechanical tests, the material characterization of Inconel X-750 can be performed more efficiently and nondestructively by using ultrasonic guided waves; this characterization helps identify the changes occurring in its elastic moduli and Poisson's ratio under different heat-treatment conditions. The wave velocity and hardness of Inconel X-750 are proportional to each other. This nondestructive technique for the measurement of material properties can be widely used in various industries to avoid catastrophic failure. It is also expected that the guided-wave technique can be applied as a new cost- and time-saving inspection tool for longer and wider inspection ranges.

This study was pursued to measure skin feeling of cosmetics by mechanical methods. For this attempt, skin feeling of cosmetics such as spreading properties, tackiness, and residual greasy feeling after skin application was explored with the amount and kinds of cosmetic compositions-emulsifiers, waxes, thickeners, polyols, and oils. Furthermore, the relationship between these cosmetic compositions and viscometry of cosmetic products was studied. In case of emulsifiers, waxes, and thickeners, they showed strong correlation with both skin feeling and the value of phase angle, the property of viscometry, respectively, while polyols and oils were observed a special tendency neither skin feeling nor the property of viscometry. It leads to the conclusion that skin feeling may be corresponded to not values of a mechanical measure completely but a function of several properties. We expect that a better correlation can be discovered with additionally measured properties such as friction, volatility, etc.

This paper measures the mechanical properties of corrugated cardboard, an eco-friendly packaging material, and applies these measurements to the MAT_PAPER model in LS-DYNA for finite element analysis. Although MAT_PAPER is primarily designed for modeling the behavior of paper, this research demonstrates its applicability to corrugated cardboard as well. Tensile, compression, and shear behaviors of a corrugated cardboard were measured and analyzed, and based on these results, six yield surfaces were derived and integrated into the MAT_PAPER model. By comparing the finite element analysis of the material tests and the low velocity collapse analysis of the corrugated cardboard square boxes with each experimental results, it was shown that the behavior of corrugated cardboard could be equivalently considered well by the MAT_PAPER model. However, since the model is not rate-dependent, the high strain rate properties of liner materials were measured and used for strain rate correction. Consequently, this matches well with the results of the high-speed compression tests of the corrugated cardboard square boxes.

When rubber elastomer has contact with fuel, since the component and additive having low molecular weight can flow out, the physical properties of both elastomer and fuel could be hindered. In order to predict the life of the rubber elastomer, this study is to determine the change of weight, thickness, hardness, strain, and compression set as mechanical properties of the sealant rubber O-ring, which was dependent on volume, temperature, and storage time of the contacted fuel. We also determined purity of fuel via GC analysis and measured gross heat of combution. The results could be used as a reference to evaluate the life of the rubber elastomer.

Suite of log analysis techniques consisting of geophysical well log, geological core log, and physical core log have been made to understand the well log responses and to determine the lithology of a test borehole-PABH1 located in Pungam sedimentary basin, Sosok, Hongchon-gun, Kangwon Province. Geological core logging has been precisely made over the cores taken between 64 and 124 meters, and 11 groups of rock types were deduced. Using the core samples divided by 11 groups, geophysical property measurements consisting of resistivity, natural gamma and density were made. Each rock group in the area is shown to have its characteristic physical response from geophysical well log and geophysical core logs. The outstanding physical responses particularly shown from siltstone, coarse sandstone to conglomerate, and granitic gneiss in the area were effectively used as keybeds in correlating the geophysical well logs to the result of geological core logs.

We investigated the flame retardancy and the mechanical properties of Nylon6 by using melamine-based halogen-free flame retardants(melamine cyanurate:MC-100 and melamine phosphate:MP-100). We chose the UL-94 method for flame retardancy and measured the tensile strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus by using UTM and impact strength by using Izod impact tester. We also tested the effect of nano-clay on flammability and mechanical properties. We obtained the V0 grade when the concentration of flame retardant was over 5 wt%. The tensile strength and flexural strength decreased and flexural modulus increased with the concentration of both flame retardant systems. The results showed that MC-100 system was better than MPP-100 system. Because of poor dispersion, we did not obtain the synergistic effect of nano-clay.

For a purpose of recycling of waste tires, composites of 10-60wt% recycled tire crumb blended with high density polyethylene(HDPE) were prepared, and their mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break, tensile modulus and impact strength were investigated as a function of tire crumb content. Ethylene-acrylic acid(EAA) copolymer was introduced by 10phr as a compatibilizer and the mechanical properties of the composites were measured. For the blend composition of 40wt% tire crumb content showing improved impact strength, the mechanical properties were measured by varying the EAA content of 5-15phr. All blends, whether modified or unmodified, showed a gradual improvement in impact strength as the tire crumb content increased, but the other properties decreased compared with the pure HDPE. In particular, the addition of EAA copolymer to the tire crumb content over 30wt% showed substantial improvement in impact strength. There was no significant effect of tire crumb size on impact strength of the composites.

In this study, carbon fiber reinforced polymeric (CFRP) composites with different resin composition were manufactured and resin formulation in composite materials were presented through tensile tests for cryogenic use. Thermo-mechanical cyclic loading (up to 6 cycles) was applied to CFRP unidirectional laminate specimens from room temperature to $-150^{\circ}C$. Tensile tests were then performed at $-150^{\circ}C$ using an environmental test chamber. In addition, matrix-dominant properties such as the transverse and in-plane shear characteristics of each composite model were measured at $-150^{\circ}C$ to examine the effects of resin formulation on their interfacial properties. The tensile tests showed that the composite models with large amounts of bisphenol-A epoxy and CTBN modified rubber in their resin composition had good mechanical performance at cryogenic temperature (CT).

아라미드 섬유는 열에 강한 튼튼한 방향족 폴리아마이드 섬유이다. 아마이드는 "85%이상의 아미드(CO-NH)기가 두 개의 방향족 고리에 직접 연결된 합성 폴리아미드로부터 제조된 섬유"로 정의된다. 아라미드 섬유는 크게 파라계와 메타계로 대별되는데 본 연구에서 사용한 파라계 아라미드는 인장강도, 강인성, 내열성이 뛰어나며 고강력 고탄성률을 지니고 있다. 일반적인 유기 섬유와는 다른 우수한 성질을 바탕으로 부직포, UD laminatig, staple 등의 형태로 크게 섬유보강 고무 복합재료 등의 각종 복합재료, 로프, 케이블, 방탄방호용과 같은 산업자재의 용도로 자동차, 우주항공, 정보통신, 국방, 등 다양한 관련 산업분야에서 사용이 확대되고 있는 고부가 소재이며 가격대비 성능비가 우수하기 때문에 세계적으로 산업용 섬유 및 초고성능 섬유시장에서 비중이 증가될 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Para-Aramid 필라멘트를 이용하여 ATY를 생산할 때 제조공정조건에 따른 ATY 물성을 알아보고 고강도를 요구하는 방화복, 고무 보강용 섬유 등의 소재에 맞는 ATY 사가공 최적공정조건을 도출하여 체계화된 data-base를 구축하여 생산성 향상 및 품질개선과 함께 산업자재용 직물개발에 응용하고자 한다. 아라미드를 ATY로 제조할 경우, 표면에 생기는 loop로 인하여 타소재와 접착시, 접착제 담지 성능이 향상되어 접착력이 상승되는 반면, 아라미드 ATY가 기존의 아라미드의 물성보다 저하되는 약점을 가지고 있으므로 이를 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 ATY 제조공정에서 중요 공정인자인 사속, heater 온도, over feed ratio를 변화시켜 시료를 제조하여 이들의 물성을 분석하여 최적의 물성을 갖는 ATY 사가공 공정을 도출함으로써 물성이 저하되는 문제를 보완 가능할 것으로 기대된다. 물성분석은 강신도, 초기탄성률을 각각 측정하여 인장특성을 확인하였으며, 습열수축률과 건열수축률을 측정하여 시료의 열수축률에 대해 측정을 하였다. 표면의 루프 발현 정도를 보기 위하여 Crimp Rigidity(CR%), 형태 불안정성(instability)등을 측정하였으며, 영상 현미경 시스템을 사용하여 ${\times}40$ 배율로 표면특성을 측정하였다.

아라미드는 일반적인 유기섬유와는 다른 우수한 역학적 성질을 바탕으로 보호의류 중에서 방탄방호 및 방검보호 의류에 사용되는 고부가 소재이다. 현재까지 ATY기계에서 사의 구조와 물성에 큰 영향을 미치는 Nozzle의 구조에 대한 연구결과는 많이 발표되어왔다. 그러나 최근 들어 소방방화방 검용 보호의류에 많이 사용되는 아라미드사에 ATY 공정 중에서 Nozzle의 직경이 ATY사의 물성에 어떤 영향을 미치는가에 대한 연구는 발표된 바가 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Para-aramid/Nylon hybrid사를 이용하여 ATY로 제조할 경우, 표면에 생기는 loop로 인하여 타 소재와 접착시, 접착제 담지 성능이 향상되어 접착력이 상승되는 반면 아라미드 Hybrid사의 역학물성은 ATY가 가공되기 전의 물성보다 저하되는 약점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 ATY 제조공정에서 Nozzle의 직경을 달리할 때 Aramid/Nylon Hybrid ATY사의 물성변화를 분석함으로서 방화복과 방검용 보호의류에 적합한 아라미드 ATY사를 개발하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 ATY 제조공정 중 다른 공정조건은 동일하게 하고 Nozzle의 직경을 0.6, 0.75, 1, 1.2mm로 변경하여 4가지 시료를 준비하고 물성분석을 위하여 제조된 시료의 강신도, 초기탄성률을 각각 측정하여 인장특성을 확인하였으며, 건열수축률과 습열수축률을 측정하여 시료의 열 수축률을 측정 분석하였다. 표면의 루프 발현 정도를 보기위하여 형태 불안정성을 측정 평가하였으며 영상현미경시스템을 사용하여 표면특성을 측정 평가하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. Nozzle의 직경이 증가함에 따라 절단강도는 30% 감소하였고 초기탄성률은 3배 가까이 감소하였다. 그리고 절단신도는 2배정도 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 Nozzle의 직경이 증가함에 따라 ATY hybrid사의 건 습열수축률이 증가하다가 직경이 1.2mm일 때 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고 직경 변화에 따라 4~6%의 열 수축률의 분포를 보였다. Para-aramid/Nylon hybrid사의 형태불안정성은 0.3~0.5%를 분포를 나타내었고 Nozzle의 직경이 0.6, 1mm일 때 상대적으로 낮은 ATY의 불안정성이 확인되었다. Nozzle의 직경이 감소할수록 loop의 엉킴이 적으며 flat하였으며 직경이 1.2mm일 때 가장 조밀하고 표면에 loop가 많이 형성된 것을 확인하였다.
