The integrity of the turbine rotors can be assessed by measuring reversible permeability and Vickers hardness of the aged rotors at service temperature. The measurement system of reversible permeability, which measured by applied alternating perturbing magnetic field, was constructed in order to evaluate material degradation, nondestructively. The test specimen was 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel used widely for turbine rotor material, and the specimens were prepared by the isothermal heat treatment at $630\;^{\circ}C$. The reversible permeability of the test materials were measured at room temperature. The peak interval of reversible permeability and Vickers hardness decreased with the increase of degradation. The degradation of test material may be determined nondestructively by the lineality of Vickers hardness and the peak interval of reversible permeability.

반도체와 금속배선의 확산을 방지하기 위한 확산방지막의 필요성이 대두되고 있으며, 이에 대한 연구는 많은 연구 그룹에서 진행중에 있다. 하지만 이러한 연구의 대부분은 전기적, 결정학적 특성에 대하여 안전성 및 재료학적 연구에 국한되어 진행되어졌다. 본 연구그룹은 텅스텐(W)을 질화시킨 W-N 확산방지막에 대하여 연구를 진행하였고, 역시 결정학적 특성에 대한 열적인 안전성을 주로 연구하였으나, 본 연구에서는 W-N 박막의 나노영역에 대한 기계적 특성 평가에 주안점을 두어 W-N 박막의 stress를 nano-indenter 기법을 이용하여 측정하고자하였다. 특히 공정시간의 단축 효과 등의 이유로 박막의 두께를 감소시키는 현재 추세에 맞춰 더 얇은 W-N 확산방지막을 제작하였으며, 이에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. W-N 확산방지막은 Ar(Argonne), $N_2$ (nitrogen) 총유량을 40 sccm으로 고정하여, 질소 유입 조건을 0, 0.5, 1 sccm 으로 변화시켜 Si (silicon) (100) 기판 위에 rf (radio-frequency) magnetron sputter를 이용하여 증착하였다. 이때 W-N 박막의 두께를 30, 100 nm로 달리하여 증착하였으며, 증착된 박막은 질소 분위기 $600^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 열처리하였다. 증착된 시료는 nano-indent를 통하여 표면으로부터 10 nm 부근의 극 표면 물성을 측정하였다. 측정 결과, $N_2$ 가스의 유량을 0.5 sccm 흘려주면서 증착한 W-N 박막이 $N_2$가스를 흘려주지 않은 W 박막과 비교하여 압축응력을 덜 받아 비교적 열에 대하여 안정적임을 확인하였다. 또 30 nm 두께의 W-N 박막이 100 nm 두께의 W-N 박막보다 더 기계적으로 안정적인 상태임을 확인하였다.

A number of attempts has been made to reinforce ballasted track substructure to meet the requirement of high-speed operation and effective rehabilitation of existing railroads. For the purpose of this, the use of geogrid has been applied, and the benefit of its use has been recognized via previous studies. In this study, an experimental pullout test was carried out to investigate the influence of normal stress on pullout strength of geogrid using different types of soil and geogrid. The results revealed that the pullout resistance generally tends to increase proportional to normal stress while the pullout coefficient interaction decreases, which is a function of material interface properties, such as the friction angle of soil, and interlocking condition between soil and geogrid. In addition, a methodology based on work-energy concept was proposed to evaluate effectiveness of geogrid and limitedly verified using test results.

Ferromagnetic material's residual magnetization is remained because of the interaction between domains from external apply field, so the electrical and electronic industry and area of defense development request deperm protocol which makes the residual magnetization to 0. But the deperm protocols which are used theses days are developed by using only experience and experiment, so we have to develop deperm protocol considering hysteresis curve. In this paper, Anhysteretic Deperm, Deperm-ME, Flash-Deperm were analyzed using two dimensional finite element method and Preisach model that was formulated by property of magnetic materials. From that analysis, the relations between hysteresis curve and deperm variable are compared by analyzing the trace of Preisach plane. Also, an efficient current ratio of deperm protocol, is proposed.

Cu/PET film composites were prepared by electroless copper plating method. In order to improve adhesion between electroless Cu plated layer and polyester (PET) film, the effect of pretreatment conditions such as etching method and mixed catalyst composition, and accelerator was investigated. Compared to NaOH etching medium, PET film was more finely etched by HCl solution, resulting in an improvement in adhesion between Cu layer and PET film. However, there were no significant differences in electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness as a function of etching medium. The surface morphology of Cu plated PET film revealed that Pd/Sn colloidal particles became more evenly distributed in the smaller size by increasing the molar ratio of PdCl$_2$ : SnCl$_2$ from 1 : 4 to 1 : 16. With increasing the molar ratio of mixed catalyst, the adhesion and the shielding effectiveness of Cu plated PET film were increased. Furthermore, HCl was turned out to be a better accelerator than NaOH in order to enhance the activity of the mixed PdCl$_2$/SnCl$_2$ catalyst, which facilitated the formation of more uniform copper deposit on the PET film.

In order to maximize the performance of polymer nano-composites, it is essential to understand an effect of a dispersion state on material properties as well as to achieve highly dispersed composites. In this work, a simple quantitative approach to evaluate the degree of dispersion was suggested for carbon nanotube (CNT) embedded polymer nano-composites. Through UV-visible spectroscopy analysis, the transmittance of nano-composites was measured at various dispersion states and it was found that the transmittance reduced as the dispersion state of CNT improved. Based on the results, an effective concentration factor for quantitative evaluation of dispersion state was introduced into the Beer-Lambert transmittance law. The proposed method and parameter to evaluate the degree of dispersion were verified by analyzing the transmittances at different dispersion states of CNT, concentrations of CNT and sample thicknesses.

This paper presents the fabrication and 3-point flexion testing of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite face/aluminum honeycomb core sandwich panels. Specimen sandwich panels were fabricated with three honeycomb types (3.18 mm, 4.76 mm, and 6.35 mm cell size) and three panel radii (flat, r = 1.6 m, r = 1.3 m). The curved sandwiches were fabricated normally with the core in the W-direction. The tensile mechanical properties of the CFRP $2{\times}2$ twill fabric face laminate were evaluated (modulus, strength, Poisson's ratio). The measured values are comparable to other CFRP fabric laminates. The flat sandwich 3-point flexion test core shear strength results were 11-30% lower than the manufacturer published data; the test set-up used may be the cause. With a limited sample size, the 1.3 meter panel curvature appeared to cause a 0.8-3.8% reduction in ultimate core shear strength compared to a flat panel.

The effects of parameters related to the finite element simulation of the laser shock peening(LSP) process on the residual stresses of Inconel alloy 600 steel are discussed. In particular, we focus on the maximum pressure, pressure pulse duration, laser spot size, and number of shots. It is found that certain ranges of the maximum pressure and pulse duration can produce the maximum compressive residual stresses near the surface, and thus proper choices of these parameters are important. The residual stresses are not affected by the laser spot size, provided it is larger than a certain size. The magnitudes of the compressive residual stresses and the plastically affected depths are found to increase with an increasing number of shots, but this effect is less pronounced for more shots.

This work is about the development or asphalt sealant using the waste edible oil. Asphalt sealant has been used for crack filler and bridge deck joint sealer Several plasticizers such as aromatic or paraffin process oils, DOP, Bunker C fuel oil, and waste edible oil were compounded with the basic components such as asphalt(AP-5), a thermoplastic elastomer(SBS triblock copolymer), a tackifying agent(petroleum resin), and stabilizers. Penetration, softening point, ductility, and elongation by tensile adhesion of those asphalt sealant compounds were measured. Their properties were changed largely depending on both the type and content of plasticizers. Waste edible oil and DOP were the best plasticizers for the low temperature tensile adhesion characteristics. Penetration and elongation by tensile adhesion of asphalt sealant compounds increased with the increase of waste edible oil content and decreased with the increase of talc content. The manufacture of asphalt sealant with low penetration and excellent low temperature tensile adhesion was possible by the recipe optimization.

This paper represents the physical and engineering characteristics of admixed liners obtained from several laboratory tests. Fly ash and weathered granitic soil are selected as primary materials, and bentonite and cement are used as additives. The results show that the maximum dry density reaches peak values at 5% and 25% of bentonite for Seochon and Samchonpo fly ash respectively, and for the weathered granitic soil, the maximum dry density increases continuously as the amount of bentonite increases. The strength of the admixed materials is not sensitive to the bentonite content, although it increases when the additives is cement. The required amount of bentonite to reach the hydraulic conductivity less than 10-7cm/sec are 18, 30, 10% of the sample weights for Seochon and Samchonpo fly ashes and the weathered granitic soil. The amount of additives show significant differences and depend on the grain size and their distributions and the amount of fine content in the primary materials
