The characteristic length method used to determine a laminate's strength generally requires the test for un-notched and notched laminates and finite element analysis together. In this paper, the methods used to predict the stress distribution and tensile characteristic length of open-hole laminates using the stress concentration factor and equivalent material properties are proposed. These methods do not require data on the failure load of open-hole laminates or finite element analysis. Once the stress and characteristic length have been determined, the failure load of the open-hole laminate can be calculated. The proposed method considers the effect of the material properties as a parameter and therefore can be applied to a variety of materials. The stress distribution is verified by comparing with a finite element analysis and test results. The predicted failure load shows a maximum deviation of 8% from the test results.

This paper was discussed about in-site application of heavyweight(or high density) concrete. Heavyweight concrete was placed with the method of conventional. Placement of conventionally mixed heavyweight concrete is subject to the same considerations of quality control as normal density concrete, except that it is far more susceptible to variations in quality due to improper handling. It is particularly subject to segregation during placement. Segregation of heavyweight concrete results not only in variation of strength but, far more importantly, in variation in density that are intolerable for work this type, since this adversely affects shielding properties. Heavyweight concrete materials and heavyweight concrete should be sampled and tested prior to and during construction to insure conformance with applicable standards and specifications.

In this research, the algorithm for simulating specific grain size distribution(GSD) with large diameter granular material was developed using the distinct element analysis program $PFC^{3D}$(Particle Flow Code). This modeling approach can generate the initial distinct elements without clump logic or cluster logic and prevent distinct element from escaping through the confining walls during the process. Finally the proposed distinct element model is used to simulate large triaxial compression test of the rockfill material and we compared the simulation output with lab test results. Simulation results of Assembly showed very well agreement with the GSD of the test sample and numerical modeling of granular material would be possible for various stress conditions using this application through the calibration.

The method of using organic acid is more environment-friendly for it improves the strength of the ground. The method of proliferating microbes makes soil particle bonded, finally improves the strength of the ground and decreasing permeability. Although there has been the research on the effect of strength increasing, there has never been a research on the evaluation of field application. In this paper, through the light drop weight test, the dynamic cone penetration test, the field density test, the variation of strength was investigated in the mixed ground with organic acid for 56 days. As the results of the field test, it was found that the strength and stiffness of the ground increased with organic acid, and that through SEM-EDS, the precipitation of calcium carbonate made by specified microbe obviously increased with organic acid material and so the ground was improved. Therefore, the sustainable development of this method needs to be analysed more in the future.

In composite materials, the adhesion and interfacial properties were the most important factors to obtain high performance of mechanical properties. This review paper had been focused on the micromechanical evaluation methods for the interfacial property historically. The interfacial property of fiber-reinforced composites (FRC) could be evaluated using only a single fiber and matrix via various micromechanical testing methods. Self-sensing due to the fracture behavior of FRC could be determined and discussed more critically and clearly using electro-micromechanical evaluation. In this paper, the research trends for micro-mechanical evaluation of composites was summarized, and their practical applications would be suggested in the future.

In this study, CFRP and metal or nonmetal were bonded with adhesive and the fracture study on this material was carried out. CFRP at the upper side of specimen and metal or nonmetal were assigned at the lower side of specimen by using DCB specimen as the analysis condition. And it was desribed that the structural adhesive were bonded between both upper and lower sides. As this analysis result, the least equivalent stress was shown at the specimen bonded with aluminium. The maximum shear stress was shown to become lowest at the de-bonded CFRP specimen when titanium was used. In conclusion, it was shown that the deformation of specimen became lowest when titanium was used. On the basis of this study result, the esthetic sense can be shown as the fracture data of bonded interface using adhesive are grafted onto the real life.

Type-3 cylinder liner has a limitation of machining the standard specimen for fracture toughness test because it has approximately 5 mm in thickness as well as a curvature. Hence, it needs to be employed a miniature specimen test technique to evaluate fracture toughness of the cylinder liner. In this study, small punch (SP) test method was employed to evaluate fracture toughness of the cylinder liner. Load-displacement curve result measured from the SP test showed that the liner material was failed during membrane stretching in the general SP load-displacement curve. Additionally, it was shown that liner material was isotropic although the amount of plastic deformation was different depending on the direction due to manufacturing process characteristics. Fracture toughness, $J_{Ic}$, was evaluated using the SP test data. The value of fracture toughness obtained was $13.0kJ/m^2$. This value was similar to that of the same kind of materials. Therefore, the fracture toughness evaluated using the SP test data was reasonable.

Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ (CIGS) 화합물은 직접천이형 반도체로 열적으로 매우 안정하고 에너지밴드갭이 1.04 eV로 이상적인 값에 가깝고, 특히 높은 광흡수계수를 가지기 때문에 박막 태양전지로서 커다란 응용 잠재력을 갖고 있는 광흡수층 재료이다. CIGS 화합물 박막 태양전지의 효율은 연구실에서는 ~20%를 높은 효율을 보고하고 있으며, 모듈급에서도 ~13%의 효율을 보이고 있다. 그러나 CIGS 박막 태양전지를 대면적 또는 양산화에 적용하기 위해서는 20년 이상의 장기적인 수명을 보장할 수 있는 내구성을 갖추어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 CIGS 모듈의 장기적인 신뢰성을 평가하기 위해 CIGS PV 모듈을 대상으로 대표적인 고온 고습 조건인 IEC-61646 규격을 이용하여 $85^{\circ}C$/85% RH에서 1000시간 동안 가속시험이 수행되었고, 고온 환경하에서 모듈의 성능 저하에 미치는 영향을 고찰하기 위해 모듈을 $85^{\circ}C$에서 1000시간 노출시켰다. 두 종류의 가속 스트레스시험 후에 모듈들의 외형적인 노화현상 및 전기적 열화 성능을 분석하였다. 또한 모듈의 효율저하의 원인을 규명하기 위해 모듈 구성 재료 중 충진재료로 사용하는 EVA sheet와 투명전극 AZO를 대상으로 고장분석을 수행하였다. AZO의 미세구조 관찰, 결정상 분석, XPS 분석 및 전기적 분석과 EVA sheet의 FT-IR 분석과 TG-DSC 분석들을 종합하여 CIGS PV 모듈의 성능저하의 원인을 규명하였다.

A.T.S.의 스위칭 구조와 접점 환경은 주로 아크 전류, 접촉 저항, 아크 시간 등의 불리적 요인이 주로 마모와 특성에 영향을 미치게 된다. 사용되는 접점 재료는 W 또는 WC-Cu 계로 형상과 크기는 전형적인 반구형 구조의 접촉으로 구동이 이루어진다. 따라서 A.T.S.용 접점의 아크 마모 특성 시험을 위한 고려 요인은 이러한 점을 고려하여 시험과 분석이 이루어 졌다. 접점의 마모 특성 실험식으로부터 실제적인 관점에서 보면 제한된 수명을 나타내는 $n_L$을 보장하기 때문에 b<1의 경우가 가장 바람직한 결과로 ATS 접점 시편의 경우 $b{\fallingdotseq}0.99$로 안정된 접점 아크 마모 특성을 갖는 것으로 판단된다. 아크 전압에 대한 모델링과 실험에서 접점 간극 거리 1<0.1mm, 아크전류 i<100A의 시험 조건에 대해 검토한 결과 ATS 접점 시편의 아크전압은 $u_a=10.2V$로 계산되었다. 이 값은 설험적인 값과 상당히 접근하는 특성을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 아크에 의한 마모를 억제하기 위해 첨가하는 WC 또는 W의 복합 소결로 인해 아크 에너지가 감소되는 것을 보여준다. 한편 접점의 아크 동작이 분리되는 순간의 동작 시험에서 기존 W(50%wt)-Cu(50%wt) 접점의 값과 비교하면 분리시 아크 전압은 상대적으로 낮아지는 현상은 W강화 첨가량의 증가로 인한 아크 에너지 감소의 제한성을 나타내는 것으로 사료된다.

The Properties of material, C18200 which is used for development of high performance liquid rocket engine combustor chamber were obtained by tension tests. The specimen for regenerative combustor was designed by structural analysis using that Properties. After the designed specimen was manufactured by the same manufacturing process of regenerative combustor. the yielding stress and yielding strain were obtained by strength tests. The properties of C18200 was degraded very much after brazing. The estimation of yielding pressure by structural analysis was almost same as that of strength test. The collector Part was yielded and failed previously than that of cooling channel part during strength test.
