1차원 반도체 구조인 양자 줄(Quantum Wire)은 새로운 물리 현상의 가능성을 보여줄 것으로 기대된다.$^{(1)(2)}$ 이 구조에서 운반자는 2차원 퍼텐셜에 가두어지므로 1차원 퍼텐셜인 양자 우물에 갇힌 운반자 보다 더 많이 양자화가 이루어져 이 운반자의 상태 에너지는 더 쪼개지며, 양자 줄의 상태 밀도는 에너지 준위에 대해 계단 함수가 아닌 변형된 Dirac $\delta$ 함수꼴을 가진다.$^{(3)}$ 그러나, 1차원 반도체 구조인 양자 줄이 나노(nano) 크기 내에서 만들어져야 하므로, 잘 정의된 양자 줄을 만드는 일은 기술상 매우 어려운 일이다. 양자 우물 구조에서 운반자는 결정을 키우는 방향을 따라 나노 크기의 활성 영역 안에 가두어지게 된다. 양자 줄 구조에서의 운반자는 결정 성장 방향뿐만 아니라 수직인 한 방향에서 각각 나노 크기를 갖는 활성 영역에 가두어져야 한다. 여기에서, 결정 성장 방향과 수직으로 활성 영역을 정의하는 것은, 결정 성장 방향과 평행하게 활성 영역을 정의하는 것보다 어려운 일이다.

Viscosities of toluene were experimentally determined by the falling-ball method at several temperatures and pressures to investigate the pressure and temperature dependence of the viscosity of toluene. With the shear stress of the viscous flow of toluene, the shear free energy, the shear entropy, and the shear enthalpy were defined to discuss the variations of the shear thermodynamic properties with pressure. The effect of temperature and pressure on the shear thermodynamic properties obtained experimentally can be explained by means of the molecular thermal agitation due to temperature incleasing and the steric effect of the closed molecules of to Iuene due to pressure elevation.

Low cycle fatigue tests are performed on the Incollel 617 that be used fur a hot gas casing. The relation between strain energy density and numbers of cycles to failure is examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of Inconel 617. The life predicted by the strain energy method is found to coincide with experimental data and results obtained from the Coffin-Mansun method. Also the cyclic behavior of Inconel 617 is characterized by cyclic hardening with increasing number of cycle at room temperature.

Design sensitivity analysis and topology design optimization for a piezoelectric crystal resonator are developed. The piezoelectric crystal resonator is deformed mechanically when subjected to electric charge on the electrodes, or vice versa. The Mindlin plate theory with higher-order interpolations along thickness direction is employed for analyzing the thickness-shear vibrations of the crystal resonator. Thin electrode plates are masked on the top and bottom layers of the crystal plate in order to enforce to vibrate it or detect electric signals. Although the electrode is very thin, its weight and shape could change the performance of the resonators. Thus, the design variables are the bulk material densities corresponding to the mass of masking electrode plates. An optimization problem is formulated to find the optimal topology of electrodes, maximizing the thickness-shear contribution of strain energy at the desired motion and restricting the allowable volume and area of masking plates. The necessary design gradients for the thickness-shear frequency(eigenvalue) and the corresponding mode shape(eigenvector) are computed very efficiently and accurately using the analytical design sensitivity analysis method using the eigenvector expansion concept. Through some demonstrative numerical examples, the design sensitivity analysis method is verified to be very efficient and accurate by comparing with the finite difference method. It is also observed that the optimal electrode design yields an improved mode shape and thickness-shear energy.

In order to predict the thermoelastic behavior of porous composites, poroelastic parameters are measured by using micromechanics-based finite element models. The expanding deformation caused by pore pressure, and the degradation of homogenized elastic moduli with pores are calculated for the assessment of the poroelastic parameters. Various representative volume elements considering the shape, size, and array pattern of pores are modeled and analyzed by a finite element method. The effects of porosity and material anisotropy, and the distribution of stain energy density are investigated carefully. In addition, the measured poroelastic parameters are verified by predicting the thermo-pore-elastic behavior of carbon/phenolic composites.

As the supply of hydrogen charging stations for hydrogen supply accelerates due to the hydrogen economy revitalization policy, the risk of accidents is also increasing. Since most hydrogen explosion accidents lead to major accidents, it is very important to secure safety when using hydrogen energy. In order to utilize hydrogen energy, it is essential to secure the safety of hydrogen storage containers used for production, storage, and transportation of liquid hydrogen. In this paper, in order to evaluate the structural safety of a hydrogen-filled pressure vessel, the behavioral characteristics of gas pressure were analyzed by finite element analysis. SA-372 Grade J / Class 70 was used for the material of the pressure vessel, and a hexahedral mesh was applied in the analysis model considering only the 1/4 shape because the pressure vessel is axisymmetric. A finite element analysis was performed at the maximum pressure using a hydrogen gas pressure vessel, and the von Mises stress, deformation, and strain energy density of the vessel were observed.

현재 상용화되어 있는 리튬 이차전지용 양극재료로는 비교적 작동전압이 높은 층상 암염구조(LiCoO$_2$, LiNiO$_2$) 및 Spinet계(LiMn$_2$O$_4$) 전이금속 산화물이 대부분 이용되고 있다 하지만 LiCoO$_2$나 LiNiO$_2$ 같은 상용화 물질은 비교적 높은 비용과, 강한 독성 때문에 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. 또 Spinel(LiMn$_2$O$_4$)는 낮은 비용과 환경친화적인 장점에도 불구하고 Jahn-Teller 변형과 관련된 구조적 변형이 심각하기 때문에 사이클시 비가역적인 용량의 감소가 심각하다. 이러한 관점에서 전이금속보다 그 양이 풍부하고 저렴할 뿐만 아니라 독성이 없는 Olivine 구조 (LiFePO$_4$)를 갖는 phosphate계 화합물에 관심을 가지게 되었다. LiFePO$_4$는 리튬 음극과 3.4V의 방전전압을 나타내며, 170mAh/g의 이론용량을 가지고 있어, Fe-base의 장점은 물론 안정적인 결정구조 및 현재 상용화된 재료들과 비슷한 에너지 밀도를 가진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 양극물질의 기존 두 제조법인 고상반응법과 sol-gel법으로 대표되는 제조법의 단점을 상호 보완될 수 있다고 판단되는 기계적 합금화법(Mechanical Alloying, MA)공정을 도입하여 초미세립 분말 제조에 초점을 맞추어 Olivine phosphate계 양극물질의 제조 및 전기화학적 특성을 연구하였다.

Poroelastic analyses of fiber-reinforced composites were performed using image-based computational models. The section image of a porous matrix was analyzed in order to investigate the porosity, number of pores, and distribution of pores. The resolution, location, and size of the section image were considered to quantify the effective elastic modulus, poroelastic parameter, and strain energy density using the image-based computational models. The poroelastic parameter was calculated from the effective elastic modulus and pore pressure-induced strain. In addition, the results of the poroelastic analyses were verified through representative volume elements by simplifying various pore configurations and arrangements.

The Low cycle fatigue behavior of 11.7Cr-1.1Mo heat-resisting steel has been investigated under strain-controlled conditions with mean stresses at room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$. For the tensile mean stress test, the initial high tensile mean stress generally relaxed to zero at room temperature, however, at $300^{\circ}C$ initial tensile mean stress relaxed to compressive mean stress. Low cycle fatigue lives under mean stress conditions are usually correlated using modifications to the strain-life approach. Based on the fatigue test results from different stain ratio of -1, 0, 0.5, and 0.75 at room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$, the fatigue damage of the steel was represented by using cyclic strain energy density. Total strain energy density considering mean stress indicated well better than not considering mean stress at $300^{\circ}C$. Predicted fatigue life using Smith-Watson-Topper's parameter correlated fairly well with the experimental life at $300^{\circ}C$.
