The rheological characteristics of highly concentrated polymer bonded explosive simulant were studied. Hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and polyethylene plastomer (Exact) were used as binders. Sugar and Dechlorane particles whose physical properties are similar to research department explosive (RDX) were used as fillers. When HTPB was used, diethyl hexyl adipate (DEHA or DOA) was used as a plasticizer together for some cases. Highly concentrated suspensions were mixed in a batch melt mixer (Rheomixer 600, Haake) and rheological properties were measured by plate-plate and capillary rheometers. Wall slip phenomena, thixotropy with shear hysteresis, and flow instability were investigated as shear rate and amount of fillers changed.

Recently, eVTOL, the next-generation of eco-friendly transportation, has been in the spotlight due to global warming along with traffic jams in large cities of many countries. This study benchmark the external features of Hyundai Motors S-A1, a compound eVTOL combined fixed and tilt rotors among many types of eVTOLs, to create the basic configuration using reverse design techniques. Basic configurations were created using CATIA and aerodynamic analyses were performed using the aircraft design and aerodynamic analysis programs, OpenVSP, XFLR5, and the aircraft wetted area, drag, and lift were calculated after selecting the airfoil, incidence angle, and dihedral and anhedral angles through trade study. Also, required powers were estimated for completing the given mission profile and components weight and the total weight were predicted using the estimation formula and data survey.

Biological process is used worldwide to treat domestic and industrial wastewater. The process generally uses a mixed microbial culture of sludge. The growth of microorganisms in the sludge produces excess sludge from the wastewater treatment process. Some of the excess sludge is recycled as inoculum for wastewater treatment, but the rest is removed as waste from the process. As wastewater production is increasing worldwide every year, the number of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is also in- creasing, resulting in the generation of large amount of waste sludge. The increasing amount of waste sludge from WWTPs has led to concerns about its management. Sludge disposal has been reported to account for 50~60% of the total operating costs of a WWTP. Sludge disintegration is a new technology that can minimize volume of waste sludge and recover useful components (e.g., P, N, and soluble organic compounds) from it. Various methods of sludge disintegration have been developed based on physical, chemical, and biological treatments or combinations of these. In this review, we focus on sludge disintegration by acid hydrolysis, which is less studied among sludge disintegration methods. Such information can be useful in the development and implementation of a new technology for better sludge treatment.

비자성이며 비전도성의 물리적 성질을 갖는 자연산 퀄쯔(quartz)와 용암석 스코리아를 대상으로 마그네타이징 처리를 하여 분석하였다. 마그네타이징 처리를 위하여 강력한 기계화학적 분쇄 반응을 시켰으며, 분쇄 반응시 알코올계의 솔벤트를 반응 용매로 사용하였다. 퀄쯔와 스코리아의 마그네타이징 처리에서 비교적 비중이 큰 퀄쯔의 경우와 비중이 작은 스코리아의 경우에도 분쇄된 분말이 물에 뜨는 것을 확인할 수 있으며, 친유성으로 기름에 대한 흡착 성질이 우수함을 확인하였다. 자연산 퀄쯔와 함께 스코리아를 바탕물질로 하여 기계-화학적 반응 기술로 고 분산성 흡착반응에 의한 고분자 물잘 생성을 유도하여 나노복합체를 제조하였다. 반응의 처리조건과 적용과정에 따라서 기계-화학적 반응을 통하여 얻어진 물질은 자기적 성질과 유전체 및 전기적 성질을 동시에 나타낸다. 부착성 융합 복합물질의 특징을 고려하여 시그니토마그네틱스(Segneto-magnetics)로 분류되는 합성분말은 특히 유류성분에 대하여 높은 흡착성을 가지며, 강한 자기적 성질을 띄는 10-50 nm 두께의 하나 또는 그 이상의 이질적 융합 화합물 층이 석영이나 수정체의 표면에 합성되어 특유의 자기, 전기적 성질을 나타낸다.

다층 구조를 갖는 고무/아크릴 충격보강제가 poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/ 충격보강제 블렌드의 몰폴로지와 유변학적 성질에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. TEM으로 측 정한 블렌드 내의 충격보강제 몰폴로지는 그 함량에 관계없이 균일한 크기의 구형을 이루는 것으로 나타났으며 파괴 단면의 SEM 측정으로부터 충격보강제와 매트릭스 수지와의 강한 결합력을 확인할수있었다. 블렌드의 유변물성 측정 실험에서는 충격보강제 함량이 복합 점 도에 크게 영향을 준 반면, capillary rheometer로부터 얻은 정상상태 점도에는 별 영향을 주지않음이 확인되었다. 특히 동적응력 실험의 고진동 주파수 영역에서는 일정 충격보강제 함량이상 일 때 충격보강제 자체의 점도와 근사해졌으며 이와같은 현상을 충격보강제의 shell 분자 상호간 또는 매트릭스 분자와의 엉킴에서 비롯되는 물리적인 상호 작용측면에서 설명해보았다. 또한 실험 결과를 Palierne[16]의 비상용성 블렌드계의 이멀젼 모델과 비교한 결과 상당한 차이를 확인할수 있었으며 이러한 차이는 위에서 언급한 shell 분자 상호간 또 는 매트릭스 분자와의 엉킴에 기인한다고 추정된다.

Fafbric 4종, 수지2종과 상용화된 프리프레그 2종에 대한 내열특성에 관하여 비교 연구 하였다. Fabric의 특성은 알려진 바와 같이 PAN계 카본 fabric의 경우 내삭마성은 우수하나 단열성능이 떨어지고, Rayon계의 경우는 그 반대이다. 공정성면에서는 rayon spun yarn으로 제직한 경우가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Spun PAM으로 제직한 경우는 직조후 탄화공정을 채택함으로써. 노즐재료로서 PAN계 탄소섬유의 사용을 가능하게 하였지만 즉 공정성은 좋으나 단열성 및 내삭마성 모두가 떨어졌다. F940수지의 경우는 SC1008과 페놀수지의 화학적특성은 다소 차이가 있으나 물리적특성이나 열적특성은 거의 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 프리프레그의 제조는 각수지와 Fabric의 조건에 맞게 R/C, V/C를 조정하여 코팅하였다. 토오치 테스트등 결과들을 종합해보면 전체적인 노즐재료로서의 성능은 아직은 Rayon계 카본이 우수한것으로 판단할수 있으나, 보다 정확한 평가를 위해서는 실제 노즐 테스트가 필요하다.

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are considered as one of ideal nano-fillers in the field of composites with their excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Therefore CNT composites are increasingly used in fabricating conductive materials, structural materials with high strength and low weight, and multifunctional materials. The main problem of the CNT composites is difficulty in the dispersion of CNT in the polymer matrix. In this study multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) were pretreated by the physical process utilizing a wrapping method. After the pretreatment polymer/MWNT nanocomposites were prepared by melt processing. The effect of functionalization MWNT by wrapping with styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) on the mechanical and electrical properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin (ABS)/MWNT composites was studied by comparing the properties of ABS mixed with the neat MWNT. Electrical and mechanical properties of ABS/MWNT nanocomposites were studied as a function of the functionalization and content of MWNT. The tensile strength of the ABS/MWNT nanocomposites increased, but the impact strength decreased. The polymer wrapping in ABS system has little effect on the improvement of electrical properties.

This study investigated the colors and mechanical properties of layered dental composites. Four nanocomposite resins (Aelite LS, Grandio, Tetric EvoCeram, Filtek Z350XT) and a silorane-based composite resin (P90) were used for overlying and underlying materials, respectively, with different thickness combinations. Colors, translucency parameter (TP), flexural and compressive properties were evaluated. All tested specimens had different color coordinates, although all were of A3 shade. Color coordinates and TP values of layered specimens better matched those of the corresponding overlying product as the thickness of the overlying product was increased. High TP values were related with high $b^*$ value differences between specimens (p<0.05). Both flexural strength and modulus, compressive strength and modulus of layered specimens with different thickness combinations were mostly lower than those of the corresponding overlying products, respectively, in their non-layered state.

Among many geophysical prospecting methods, GPR(Ground Penetration Radar) and electrical resistivity method have been applied to a open waste dumping landfill for measuring of the site area and depth. The surveying was limited to a boarder of the site and inside area because of the field situation. The data of GPR were recorded by 50MHz antenna, and dipole array was used for electrical resistivity survey in the same survey line for the integrated interpretation. The result of GPR clearly indicated the horizontal boarder of site. However, the data of GPR did not have enough to measure the depth of site clearly. The electrical resistivity method may show the effective information by integrated interpreation. These results coincided with results of the boring test. Therefore, a combination of GPR and electrical resistivity is a good method for surveying of suspective open waste dumping landfill area and it's depth.

The relationship between balance and ankle muscle characteristics (strength and flexibility) may be important to identify those at an increased risk of falling and to develop fall-prevention training programs. The association between ankle muscle characteristics (strength and flexibility) and balance has not previously been studied. The purpose of this study assessed the relationship between ankle muscle characteristics and balance. Sixteen healthy participants volunteered to participate in the study. Dynamic balance measured using Y-balance kit. Ankle muscle characteristics (strength and flexibility) measured using hand-held dynamometer and goniometry. The results indicated a positive correlation between ankle invertor muscle strength and Y-balance test performance. Clinicians should consider ankle muscle strength during therapeutic interventions to improve dynamic balance.
