An experimental investigation on the behavior of reinforced concrete coupling beams is presented. The test variables are the span-to-depth ratio, the ratio of flexural reinforcements and the ratio of shear rebars. The distribution of arch action and truss action which compose the mechanism of shear resistance is discussed. The increase of plastic deformation after yielding transforms the shear transfer by arch action into by truss action. This study proposes the deformation model for reinforced concrete coupling beams considering the bond slip of flexural reinforcement. The strain distribution model of shear reinforcements and flexural reinforcements based on test results is presented. The yielding of flexural reinforcements determines yielding states and the ultimate states of reinforced concrete coupling beam are defined as the ultimate compressive strain of struts and the degradation of compressive strength due to principal tensile strain of struts. The flexural-shear failure mechanism determines the ultimate state of RC coupling beams. It is expected that this model can be applied to displacement-based design methods.

The vertical distribution of pore water pressure in the highly saturated sand layer under the oscillating water pressure (water wave) us studied theoretically and experimentally. By the experiments it is shown that the water pressure acting on the sand surface propagates into the sand layer with the damping in amplitude and the lag in phase, and that the liquefaction, the state that the effective stress become zero, occurs under certain conditions. These experimental results are explained fairly well by the same theoretical tearment as for ground water problems in the elastic aquifer. The main characteristics of liquefaction clarified by the analysis are as follows: 1) The depth of the liquified layer increases with the increase of the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillating water pressure. 2) The increase of the volume of the air in the layer increases the liquified depth. Especially the very small amount of the air affects the liquefaction significantly. 3) The liquefied depth decrese rapidly with the increase of the compressibility coefficient of the sand. 4) In the range beyond a certain value of the permeability coefficient the liquified depth decrease with the increase of the coefficient.

다이아몬드는 지구상에서 가장 단단한 물질로 잘 알려져 있을 뿐만 아니라 공업적 측면에서 볼 때, 여러 가지 특출한 성질들을 동시에 지니고 있다. 인장강도, 압축강도, 탄성계수 등 기계적 특성이 우수하고 넓은 광투과성과 내열, 내화학, 내방사성을 지니고 있으며, 열전도율이 높고 전기적으로 절연체이다. 또한 hole이동도가 높고 도핑에 의해서 반도체적 특성을 나타낸다. 이와 같이 매우 뛰어난 성질을 공업적으로 응용하기 위하여 이전부터 많은 연구가 행해져 왔으며, 1980년대에 들어와 박막이나 코팅 형태로의 합성이 가능한 기상합성법이 큰 발전을 보임으로써 다이아몬드의 우수한 특성을 여러 분야에서 폭넓게 응용할 수 있게 되었다. 특히 마찰 응용분야에 최적의 재료로 추천되고 있다. 지금도 Epitaxial 다이이몬드를 기지 위에 성장시키고 다결정질박막을 여러 가지 비다이아몬드(Si, W, Mo 등) 기지 위에 성장시키는 연구가 계속되고 있으며 공구강 위엥 경질코팅으로써 한층 개선된 다이아몬드박막 제조를 위한 수많은 연구노력들이 집중되고 있다. 그러나 일반탄소강에 다이아몬드박막을 성장시키기 위한 많은 노력들은 크게 바람직하지 않은 non-diamond carbon(black carbon or graphitic soot)의 형성 때문에 방해를 받고 있다. 계면에서 이들의 형성은 증착된 다이아몬드박막과 금속기지의 저조한 밀착력을 나타내게 된다. 이외 같이 다이아몬드박막의 응용을 위하여 다이아몬드피막에 요구되는 중요한 조건은 기지에 대해서 강한 밀착력을 나타내는 것이며, 동시에 상대물에 대하여 낮은 마찰계수를 가져야 한다. 그러나 다이아몬드와 금속기지는 서로 다른 열챙창계수(각각 0.87$\times$10-6K-1, 12$\times$10-6K-1)의 차이로 인하여 밀착력이 현저히 떨어진다는 단점으로 인해 산업화에 많은 제약을 받아왔다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 다이아몬드박막과 금속기지 사이에 중간층을 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이러한 시도는 일반적으로 중간층 형성 금속인 Ti 또는 TiN 등이 적용되었으나 원하는 결과를 얻지 못하였다. 즉 carbon과 Fe의 상호확산, non-diamond carbon상의 형성 그리고 열잔류응력을 완화시키고 일반탄소강 위에 다이아몬드박막을 형성시켜 우수한 밀착력을 얻기 위한 목적에 미흡하였던 것이다. 이에 중간층으로 Cr 또는 Cr계 화합물 박막을 이용하였는 바, 이 중간층을 이용한 결과 우수한 밀착력을 나타내는 다이아몬드박막을 얻었으며 열적, 구조저으로 모재와 다이아몬드에 적합한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구에 의해 얻어진 결과들은 재료 가공을 위하여 높은 경도와 내마모성등이 요구되는 절삭공구나 금형의 수명 향항에 크게 기여할 것이며 산업적으로 큰 응용이 기대된다.

Recently, polypropylene fiber reinforced mortar and concrete as civil and architectural materials have been used in major countries in the world. Polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete has many advantages in terms of economical aspect, chemical stability and durability. It has been reported that polypropylene fiber can control restrained tensile stresses and cracks and increase toughness, resistance to impact, corrosion, fatigue and durability. The purpose of the present study is, therefore, to investigate the strength as well as many mechanical characteristics including toughness and shrinkage control properties. A specially devjsed shrinkage test has been applied to measure the crack control characteristics of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete. The present study indicates that the polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete curbs greatly the crack occurrence due to shrinkage and enhances toughness resistance. The present study provides a firm base for the efficient use of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete in actual construction such as pavements and slab structures.

One of ways to make high-strength concrete is for the mix contain particles graded down to the finest size : this is achieved by the use of fly ash, silica fume which fills the spaces between the cement particle and between the aggregate and the cement particles. And, the mix needs a sufficient workability. This is achieved by the use of a superplasticizer. This study is to investigate frost resistance of high-strength concrete at early age, with ratio of tensile strength and recovery of compressive strength, when high-strength concrete is placed in cold climates. According to this study, it is necessary to ensure 4 % of air content, 5 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of tensile strength, at least, for frost resistance of high-strength concrete at early age.

Ten Half precast concrete slabs reinforced with welded deformed wire fabric were tested under two concentrated loads to investigate the flexural moment and ductile capacity. The test variables were the compressive strength of topping concrete, quantitative roughness, and reinforcernent ratio. The effects of each test variables were studied separately. Test results were as followings. The ultimate strength design method is applicable to predict flexural strength for Half P.C. concrete slab with welded deformed wire fabric and quantitative roughness. It is proper to consider 0.0035 strain ;is yielding stress of the welded deformed wire fabric. The ductility index of Half precast concrete slab with welded deformed wire fabric showed lower value. Therefore to enhance the ductility capacity the normal defomed bar should be used with the welded deformed wire fabric for the longitudinal reinforcement.

Naphthalene sulfonated condensate has been widely used as a superplasticizer for cement and concrete, but the application was limited due to its large slump loss with elapsed time. To complement this demerit of NSF, polycarboxylic acid copolymer from nlaleic anhydride and acryl~c acid(MA) was synthesized to retain the mobility of cement and concrete, and then mixed with NSF. The physical properties, such as fluidity, fluidityretention and rheology, were measured by applying these admixtures to cement paste as a function of elapsed time. And also compressive strength of mortar was measured with curing time. NIv-l and NM-2 containing 10, 20 wt% of MA respectively had a excellent fluidity and a fluidity- retention. In rheological property, the increases of shear stress and viscosity with elapsed time were delayed with the increasing of shear rate in cornparision with NSF only. The marked slump loss of cement paste could be controlled by these admixture. Also the added ainount of admixture and the ratio of water to cement affected these properties.

In this study, the effects of shot peening (SP) on the Vickers hardness of $ZrO_2$ were studied. The size of the shot balls were ${\phi}180{\mu}m$ and ${\phi}300{\mu}m$. The Vickers hardness was measured using an indentation load of 98 N and 294 N. The Vickers hardness was evaluated using Weibull statistical analysis. The scale parameters were significantly evident from the indentation load of 98 N and the shot ball of ${\phi}180 {\mu}m$. Generally, the shape parameters were also evident from the small short ball (180sp). Thus, it is shown that the introduction of a compressive residual stress by SP is an effective technique for increasing the mechanical properties of $ZrO_2$.
