This paper presents an optimum mixture design method for proportioning a concrete. In the proposed method, the search space is constrained as the domain defined by the minimal convex region of a database, instead of the available range of each component and the ratio composed of several components. The model for defining the search space which is expressed by the effective region is proposed. The effective region model evaluates whether a mix-proportion is effective on processing for optimization, yielding highly reliable results. Three concepts are adopted to realize the proposed methodology: A genetic algorithm for the optimization; an artificial neural network for predicting material properties; and a convex hull for evaluating the effective region. And then, it was applied to an optimization problem wherein the minimum cost should be obtained under a given strength requirement. Experimental test results show that the mix-proportion obtained from the proposed methodology using convex hulls is found to be more accurate and feasible than that obtained from a general optimum technique that does not consider this aspect.

The optimal formula for non-frozen pound cake was sought using a central composite design with a quadratic model, by response surface methodology (RSM). Behavior on supercooling, freezing time, theological properties, and sensory attributes of pound cake were studied by using various concentrations of sugar, sorbitol, and glycerol. The freezing temperature of standard pound cake was $-16.16^{\circ}C$. The hardness, freezing point temperature, and sensory properties were shown as a quadratic relationship whereas moisture content was analyzed by a linear model. Optimized formula for non-frozen cake were suggested to include (sugar:sorbitol:glycerol) 77.6:0.0:20.4, 60.0:32.8:16.4, and 70.8:11.2:19.6 (all % of total sugar) by RSM. The freezing tines of optimized non-frozen pound cake were reduced by $27{\sim}45%$. The freezing Points of optimized pound cake were depressed below $-20^{\circ}C$. Sorbitol and glycerol may be used as cryoprotectants and preserve the desired sensory attributes of pound cake at low temperatures.

This study exploited the design of mixture proportion for the high strength concrete to establish the method of the quality control and high strength ready-mixed concrete for the application to the construction filed systematically how to output the estimated formula which could forecast mixture proportion for the high strength concrete classed 40${\sim}$60MPa through a experiment. It might contribute for systematic establishment of the method of the quality control and high strength ready-mixed concrete because it was possessed of the function of common data though a server, preservation and output of data, and estimation for the design of mixture proportion for the high strength concrete due to the experimental result, and Visual Basic, MS-SQL were used. Simply, it was produced corresponding to the condition of a laboratory, so it could be fundamental data for the design of mixture proportion for the high strength concrete. If upgrade is enforced with mixture proportion data of the each factory after then, it may contribute to the stability on quality and manufacture of high strength ready-mixed concrete to agree with the properties of each factory.

This study was performed to establish the process mean which is statistically satisfying the critical limit of deformation strength $(S_D)$, which is found to reflect rutting characteristics of asphalt mixture relatively well. The process means were determined using the critical $S_D$ values (3MPa for local highway and 4MPa for arterial highways), which were obtained from correlation analysis of APA and $S_D$ test data of actual highway projects, and coefficient of variation of 32 combinations of domestic mixtures. The process means of 3.2 MPa for local highway and 4.25 MPa for arterial highways were suggested when using 3 specimens (diameter of 100mm). However, since these values are based on the loading speed of 30mm/min, the higher values, 3.5 MPa for local highway and 4.5 MPa for arterial highways, were suggested, respectively, if the loading speed of 50mm/min is applied using the old Marshall machine, which should give higher test values.

Bonded film을 형성시키기 위한 대표적인 고체윤활제들로는 이황화-몰리브데늄, 이황화-텅스텐(WS$_{2}$), 보론-나이트라이드(BN), 흑연(Graphite) 등을 들 수 있으며, 이들 고체윤활제를 표면에 효과적으로 부착시키기 위하여 사용되는 수지류는 페놀 및 에폭시계수지 등이 사용되고 있아. Bonded film의 마찰마모특성은 이와 간이 피막 내에 첨가된 고체윤활제 및 수지의 종류, 고체윤활 입자들의 크기 및 순도,그리고 이들 상호간의 배합비율 등에 의하여 크게 좌우되며, 아울러 피막 내에 소량으로 첨가될 수 있는 여러 가지 보조첨가제들에 의해서도 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 알려져 있다. 고체윤활제 성분들의 조성과 더불어, 재료표면의 물리화학적인 전처리 조건도 매우 중요한 요인이 될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 윤활피막내 고체윤활제들의 배합, 고체윤활피막의 표면전처리 방법들을 변화하고 이들에 따른 상기 고체윤활피막들의 마찰 및 마모 특성에 관하여 시험을 행하였다.

It is obvious that chloride penetration through cracks can threaten the durability of concrete substantially, according to the previous studies of author. It was proposed that crack depth corrseponded with critical crack width from the surface is a crucial factor in view of durability design of concrete structures. It is now necessary to deal with chloride penetration through microcracks characterized with the mixing features of concrete. The purpose of this study is examining the effect of mix proportional features of concrete such as coarse aggregate, high strengtherize of concrete and reinforcement of steel fiber on chloride penetration through cracks. Although small size of coarse aggregate can lead to many microcracks in concrete, the cracks should not impact on chloride penetration directly. On the contrary, chloride should penetrate through cracks easily in concrete with a large size of coarse aggregate because mixrocracks are connected to each other. Second, high strength concrete has an excellent performance to resist with chloride penetration. However, for cracked high strength concrete, its performance is reduced upto the level of ordinary concrete. Finally, steel fiber reinforcement is effective to reduce chloride penetration through cracks because steel fiber reinforcement can lead to reduce crack depth significantly.
