This paper deals with Poisson's ratio and volumetric strain behavior on loading-reloading terms under uniaxial condition targeting 404 individual rocks, which include sedimentary rocks as sandstone, shale, mudstone, conglomerate and tuff on Kyungsang basin. Poisson' ratio demonstrates increase, convergence and decrease behavior according to the increase in load, which results in preponderance of increase behavior. Volumetric strain demonstrates normal, positive and negative behavior according to the increase in load, which results in preponderance of normal behavior. On practice, Poisson's ratio can be indicative of high or low values with low values of design load. Consequently, a careful selection of results in in-situ sample experiment should be made and varying design conditions should be considered.

최근의 세라믹 공정기술은 고집적화 추세에 따라 그린시트의 두께가 얇아지면서 다층화되고 있으므로 fine patterning, Via Hole 크기의 최소화, Via Hole 간의 층간 연결을 위한 그린시트 층간 정밀도가 더욱 중요해지고 있다. 따라서 세라믹의 소성후 수축율 제어는 고집적 세라믹 기판 모듈 제작을 위한 핵심공정기술로 기술 개발에 대한 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 온 연구에서는 일축가압 이용한 PAS법 (Pressure Assisted Constrained Sintering)과 Al2O3를 희생층으로 이용한 Constrained법을 혼합하여 저온 동시소성 세라믹 기판의 x-y축 방향의 수축율을 zero로 제어하고자하였다. Al2O3/LTCC/Al2O3인 샌드위치 구조로 세라믹 시트를 적층하여 Load에 따른 소성수축율 및 LTCC 두께에 따른 Edge Curvature의 Radius를 측정하였다. 그 결과 소성온도 $900^{\circ}C$에서 Constrian Layer $500{\mu}m$, Load 0.92kg/cm3일때 LTCC의 두께가 $400{\mu}m$에서 $2500{\mu}m$로 증가함에 따라 Edge Curvature Radius가 $430{\mu}m$에서 $2200{\mu}m$로 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 이때 소결 밀도는 2.95g/$cm^3$로 우수한 특성을 나타내었다.

기존의 Free Sintering 방법을 사용하는 LTCC(Low Temperature Cofiring Ceramics)는 수축률이 일정하지 않아서 설계 치수와 동일하게 제작하기 어려운 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 따라서 정밀한 전자부품을 제작하기 위한 방안으로 X-Y면 방향에서의 변형을 거의 zero로 제어하는 Constrained Sintering(CS) 기술이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 LTCC 기판이 소성되는 동안에 변형을 억제하기 위하여 소성온도가 LTCC 기판 보다 높은 $Al_2O_3$ 분말과 유기물을 혼합하여 페이스트를 제작한 후에 스크린 프린팅 방법을 이용하여 도포 후에 Z축 방향으로 일축가압을 하면서 소성하여 수축률을 제어 하였다. 또한 바인더와 $Al_2O_3$ 분말의 함량에 대한 최적 조성의 $Al_2O_3$ 페이스트를 제작하여 0.5%로 수축률을 가지는 균일한 LTCC 기판을 구현 할 수 있었다.

In this study, a graphite block is fabricated using artificial graphite processing byproduct and phenolic resin as raw materials. Mechanical and electrical property changes are confirmed due to the preforming method. After fabricating preforms at 50, 100, and 150 MPa, CIP molding at 150 MPa is followed by heat treatment to prepare a graphite block. 150UP-CIP shows a 12.9% reduction in porosity compared with the 150 MPa preform. As the porosity is decreased, the bulk density, flexural strength, and shore hardness are increased by 14.9%, 102.4%, and 13.7%, respectively; and the deviation of density and electrical resistivity are decreased by 51.9% and 34.1%, respectively. Therefore, as the preforming pressure increases, the porosity decreases, and the electrical and mechanical properties improve.

To enhance the performance of anode-supported SOFC, single cell fabrication procedure was changed for better and resulting power generating characteristics of single cell were investigated. Liquid condensation process was employed for the granulation of NiO/YSZ powder mixture and the produced powder granules were compacted into anode green substrate by uni-axial pressing. YSZ electrolyte was printed on green substrate via screen-printing method and co-fired at 1400$^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. LSM/YSZ composite cathode of which the composition and heat treatment condition was adjusted to minimize the polarization#resistance with AC-impedance spectroscopy, was screen printed. The final single cell size from this multi-step procedure was 5${\times}$5 $\textrm{cm}^2$ and 10${\times}$10 $\textrm{cm}^2$. The maximum power densities of 5${\times}$5 and 10${\times}$10 single cells were about 0.45 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.22 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 800$^{\circ}C$, which are two times superior than those from single cells fabricated by the conventional process in previous our work.

As a basic study for investigating the development of the stress-induced crack in Hoek-Brown rock, a homogenization technique of elastic cracks is proposed. The onset of crack is monitored by Hoek-Brown empirical criterion, while the orientation of the crack is determined by the critical plane approach. The concept of volume averaging in stress and strain component was invoked to homogenize the representative rock volume which consists of intact rock and cracks. The formulation results in the constitutive relations for the homogenized equivalent anisotropic material. The homogenization model was implemented in the standard FEM code COSMOSM. The numerical uniaxial tests were performed under plane strain condition to check the validity of the propose numerical model. The effect of friction between the loading plate and the rock sample on the mode of deformation and fracturing was examined by assuming two different contact conditions. The numerical simulation revealed that the homogenized model is able to capture the salient features of deformation and fracturing which are observed commonly in the uniaxial compression test.

Defects in the conventional casting process of silver jewelry can result in famished products of mediocre hardness. To overcome the shortcomings of conventional methods, we proposed new press forming process, which involves applying uniaxial pressure on casting 92.5%Ag-6.5%Cu-1%Zn ring elements and shaping with a lath. We investigated Vickers hardness, density, and microstructure evolution by changing the applied uniaxial pressure. We report that our newly proposed process can increase the hardness up to 2.3 times and decrease average grain size by 50%. Our method leads to drastic mechanical property enhancements, and is thus suitable for casting tension-style jewelry.

In this study, materials for spectacle lens cutting were fabricated by hot-pressing and annealing SiC powders with $Al_2O_3$ and $Y_2O_3$. A microstructure that consisted of uniformly distributed, large SiC grains and elongated SiC grains was developed by using ${\alpha}$-SiC powders. The microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). By hot-pressing and subsequent annealing, elongated ${\beta}$-SiC grains were grown via ${\beta}{\rightarrow}{\alpha}$ phase. This is caused the crack deflection as toughening mechanism. Typical hardness and fracture toughness of materials for spectacle lens cutting were 13.3 GPa and $4.8MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively.

Porous alumina ceramics with aligned plate-shaped pores were fabricated by using thermoplastic microsphere in order to show the anisotropy in thermal conductivity. The mixed powder of alumina and microsphere was pressed under 15 MPa till 20$0^{\circ}C$ to deform polymer into platelet-shape and sintered at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The sintered specimen with 10 wt% microsphere has 45.3% porosity and the bending strength of 44 MPa. The microstructural investigation confirmed the pore structure of platelet-shape, the thermal conductivities for vertical and parallel directions are 3.803 W/mK and 7.818 W/mK, respectively, the ratio between two directions exceeds 2.

Six different SiC ceramics with SiO2-Re2O3 (Re=Yb, Er, Y, Dy, Gd, Sm) as sintering additives have been fabricated by hot-pressing the SiC-Re2Si2O7 compositions at 1850$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr under a pressure of 25 MPa. The room temperature strneth and the fracture toughness of the hot-pressed ceramics were characterized and compared with those of the ceramics sintered with YAG (Y3Al5O12). Five SiC ceramics (Re=Yb, Er, Y, Dy, Gd) investigated herein showed sintered densities higher than 94% of theoretical. Tthe SiC-Re2Si2O7 compositions showed lower strength and comparable toughness to those from SiC-YAG composition, owing to the chemical reaction between SiO2 and SiC during sintering. SiC ceramics fabricated from a SiC-Y2Si2O7 composition showed the best mechanical properties of 490 MPa and 4.8 MPa$.$m1/2 among the compositions investigated herein.
