The doping effect of thulium on electrical properties and degradation behavior in barium titanate ceramics ($BaTiO_3$) was investigated in terms of generations of core-shell structure and micro-chemical changes through highly accelerated degradation test. The dielectric specimens of pellet type and multi-layered sheets were prepared by using $BaTiO_3$ with undoped and doped with 1 mol% $Tm_2O_3$. The $BaTiO_3$ ceramics doped with 1 mol% $Tm_2O_3$ had 40% higher dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}$ = 2700) than that of the undoped $BaTiO_3$ specimen at curie temperature and met X7R specification. According to the result of highly accelerated degradation test conducted at $150^{\circ}C$, 70 V, and 24 hr, the oxygen diffusion was declined in dielectrics doped with 1 mol% $Tm_2O_3$. The $Tm^{3+}$ ion substituted selectively Ba site and Ti site and contributed to the generation of the core-shell structure. Oxygen vacancies occurred by substitution for Ti site could reduce excess oxygen that reacted to the Ni electrode.

A large number of seismic isolation systems have been developed since the early 1970s. They are basically a combination of elastomeric bearing and energy dissipators. The investigation described in this paper analyzes shear property and the frequency dependence of Lead Rubber Damper(LRD). Lead Rubber Damper is similar in shape and performance property to Lead Rubber Bearing. Experimental condition ranges from 20 to 200% in share strain and from 0.1 to 1.0Hz in frequency. When the shear strain is increased, effective stiffness and damping ratio are decreased. When the frequency is increased, change of the behavior characteristic is subtle.

음의 비선형 전파가 일어나기 쉬운 정도를 나타내는 파라메타로서 기본파 진폭과 제2고조파 진폭의 비로써 매질의 물리적 성질에만 관계하는 파라메타 B/A가 있다(1)(2). 종래 B/A파라메타 측정은 대부분 광대역의 초음파 트랜스듀서 혹은 공진 주파수가 다른 복수의 트랜스듀서를 이용하여 왔다(3). 본 연구에서는 협대역의 단일 트랜스듀서를 이용하여 B/A파라메타를 효율적으로 측정 할 수 있는 전용 초음파 트랜스듀서를 제안하였다. 그 방법으로 특성이 동일한 두 장의 압전체를 적층시키고, 그 중 한 장의 압전체에 전기적인 용량을 접속하여 기본 공진 모드 및 기본 공진 모드의 두 배의 주파수에 해당되는 조화파 모드를 발생시킬 수 있도록 하였다 이것을 시험 제작하여 그 특성을 이론 및 실험적으로 해석한 결과 음향 매질의 비선형 파라메타인 B/A의 측정에 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.

Whole composite structure small class (150kg) satellite, STSAT-3, was initially developed in Korea. The structure does have aluminum frames that support the structure, and it is composed of only composite sandwich panels. A number of electronic boxes and mechanical apparatus will be shielded within the compartments built up by the composite panels. This study focused on the random vibration responses of the satellite. For this objective, vibration tests and analyses have been successfully performed with respect to STM (structure and thermal model) of the satellite. Additionally, through the experiment and theoretical analyses, the both results' accuracy was verified by comparison each other.

The increased vibration level of the railway bridge could make significant noise and, also, cause structural damages such as fatigue cracks. Related to these subjects, a spherical elastomeric bridge bearing, which is layered by hemispherical rubber and steel plates, was investigated in terms of its vibration performance. Several different shape factors could be considered by changing the curvature of hemispherical surface and size in rubber and steel plate thicknesses in the manufacturing stage. The performance of the spherical elastomeric bearing for the reduction in vibration was compared with that of the conventional bearing by performing vibration experiments on a scale-downed model. The rubber material characteristics and spherical shape are found to be important parameters in reducing the bridge vibration.

KAISTAT-4 is the fourth experimental microsatellite of KITSAT series which has been developed by Satellite Technology Research Center of KAIST for the last two years. The launch of KAISTSAT-4 is scheduled in 2003. The primary experimental payloads consist of Far-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph and Space Physis Package. In a similar way to KITSAT series, the interior of KAISTSAT-4 comprises mainly a set of stacked aluminium-alloy module boxes, each being capable of acting as the primary load path in the mechanical structure. The KAISTSAT-4 qualification model is now designed, fabricated, integrated, and tested to verify if the electrical and mechanical components work and can withstand the launch environments. All the required structural tests have been performed to a sufficient degree to satisfy the intent of the test requirements. This paper presents the structural system and launch environmental test results of KAISTSAT-4 qualification model.

Stress-balanced flat 150 nm-$Si_{3}N_{4}$/300 nm-$SiO_{2}$/150 nm-$Si_{3}N_{4}$ dielectric membrane on silicon substrate has been fabricated. Analyses of stress-deflection and stress-temperature, and visual inspection for the strain diagnostic test patterns were performed in order to characterize stress properties of the membrane. The $SiO_{2}$ layers sandwiched between two $Si_{3}N_{4}$ layers were deposited by three different techniques(PECVD, LPCVD, and APCVD) for the purpose of investigating the dependence of stress on the deposition methods. Some extent of tensile stress in the membrane was always observed regardless of the deposition methods, however it could be balanced against silicon substrate by post-wet oxidation in $1,150^{\circ}C$. Stress-temperature characteristics of the membranes showed that APCVD-LTO was better as mid-$SiO_{2}$ layer than PECVD - or LPCVD - $SiO_{2}$ when there was no oxidation process.

A linerless composite propellant tank was designed and manufactured by using the carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials which have superior strength-to-weight ratio in order to reduce weight of the tank. In this research, we designed a sub-scale composite propellant tank with a diameter of 800 mm to withstand an MEOP of 1.7 MPa. We manufactured the boss of the tank by using the same composite materials to reduce the thermal expansion difference between the boss and the secondary-bonded composite layers of the barrel in the cryogenic environment. We used the collapsible mandrel to manufacture the tank without any liner. The mandrel was made from epoxy-based composite tooling prepregs to reduce weight of the mandrel. We manufactured the test tanks by laying up the carbon fiber fabric prepregs manually on the mandrel and then applying the autoclave cure process. We performed a proof test, a helium tightness test, a repeated pressurization test, and a burst test in room temperature. The test results demonstrate that the proposed design and manufacture process satisfies all strength requirements as well as an anti-leakage requirement.

In this research, nondestructive test using a radioisotope, $^{241}Am$ gamma-ray, was accomplished in order to evaluate the fiber volume fraction of the accumulated composite layers such as glass fiber/epoxy and carbon fiber/epoxy. Attenuation coefficients of the fiber and resin were measured respectively by NaI(T1) detector The fibers volume fraction was measured for various thickness of composite layers between 2 and 20mm. Fiber volume fraction of the composite layers were also measured for various amount of fibers. The experimental errors from nondestructive test using gamma-ray were in the range of ${\pm}1{\sim}2.5%$ in comparison with those from observation by optical microscopy. By selecting the optimum energy and activity of radioisotope, this method can provide a new means for the evaluation of the fiber volume fraction.
