Cold in-place recycling (CIR) using emulsified asphalt or foamed asphalt has become a more common practice in rehabilitating the existing asphalt pavement due to its cost effectiveness and the conservation of paving materials. As CIR continues to evolve, the engineered emulsified asphalt was developed to improve the field performances such as coating, raveling, retained stability value and curing time. The main objective of this research is to compare the laboratory responses of the engineered emulsified asphalt (CIR-EE) mixtures against the foamed asphalt (CIR-foam) mixtures using the reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP)materials collected from the CIR project on U.S. 20 Highway in Iowa. Based on the visual observation of laboratory specimens, the engineered emulsified asphalt coated the RAP materials better than the foamed asphalt because the foamed asphalt is to create a mastic mixture structure rather than coating RAP materials. Given the same compaction effort, CIR-EE specimens exhibited lesser density than CIR-foam specimens. Both Marshall stability and indirect tensile strength of CIR-EE specimens were about same as those of CIR-foam specimens. However, Marshall stability and indirect tensile strength of the vacuum-saturated wet specimens of CIR-EE mixtures were higher than those of CIR-foam mixtures. After four hours of curing in the room temperature, the CIR-EE specimens showed less raveling than the CIR-foam specimens. On the basis of test results, it can be concluded that the CIR-EE mixtures is less susceptible to moisture and more raveling resistant than CIR-foam mixtures.

Although Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion has limitations in that it is a linear criterion and the effect of the intermediate principal stress on failure is ignored, this criterion has been widely accepted in rock mechanics design. In order to overcome these shortcomings, the Hoek-Brown failure criterion was introduced and recently a number of 3-D failure criteria incorporating the effect of the intermediate principal stress on failure have been proposed. However, in many rock mechanics designs, the possible failure of rock mass is still evaluated based on Mohr-Coulomb criterion and most of practitioners are accustomed to understanding the strength of rock mass in terms of the internal friction angle and cohesion. Therefore, if the equivalent Mohr-Coulomb strength parameters of the advanced failure criteria are calculated, it is possible to take advantage of the advanced failure criteria in the framework of the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. In this study, a method expressing the tangential Mohr-Coulomb strength parameters in terms of the stress invariant is proposed and it is applied to the generalized Hoek-Brown criterion and the HB-WW criterion. In addition, a new approach describing the geometric meaning of the ${\sigma}_2$-dependency of failure criteria in 3-D principal stress space is proposed. Implementation examples of the proposed method show that the influence of the intermediate principal stress on the tangential friction angle and cohesion of the HB-WW criterion is considerable, which is not the case for the 2-D failure criterion.

The generalized Hoek-Brown (GHB) failure criterion developed by Hoek et al. (2002) is a nonlinear function which defines a stress condition at failure of rock mass. The relevant strength parameter values are systematically determined using the GSI value. Since GSI index is a value quantifying the condition of in-situ rock mass, the GHB criterion is a practical failure condition which can take into the consideration of in-situ rock mass quality. Considering that most rock mechanics engineers are familiar with the linear Mohr-Coulomb criterion and that many rock engineering softwares incorporate Mohr-Coulomb criterion, the equations for the equivalent friction angle and cohesion were also proposed along with the release of the GHB criterion. The proposed equations, however, fix the lower limit of the minor principal stress range, where the linear best-fitting is performed, with the tensile strength of the rock mass. Therefore, if the tensile stress is not expected in the domain of analysis, the calculated equivalent friction angle and cohesion based on the equations in Hoek et al. (2002) could be less accurate. In order to overcome this disadvantage of the existing equations for equivalent friction angle and cohesion, this study proposes the analytical formula which can calculate optimal equivalent friction angle and cohesion in any minor principal stress interval, and verified the accuracy of the derived formula.

In this study, an adhesive tape with water and impact resistance for mobile devices was developed using a UV-curable urethane acrylate based polymer as a substrate. The substrate fabricated by UV-curable materials shows hydrophobicity and poor wettability, which significantly deteriorates the interface-adhesions between the substrate and acrylic adhesive. In order to improve the interface adhesion, 3-glycidoxy-propyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS), a silane coupling agent having epoxy functional groups, was selected and incorporated into UV-curable urethane acrylate based polymer resins in various contents. The changes of the chemical composition according to the contents of GPTMS was studied with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to know the surface bonding properties. Also mechanical properties of the substrate were characterized by tensile strength, gel fraction and water contact angle measurements. The peel strengths at 180° and 90° were measured to compare the adhesion between the substrate and adhesive according to the silane coupling agent contents. The mechanical strength of the urethane acrylate adhesive tape decreased as the silane coupling agent increased, but the adhesion between the substrate and adhesives increased remarkably at an appropriate content of 0.5~1 wt%.

In this work, adhesive tapes were prepared for the dicing process in semiconductor manufacturing. Compounds with different numbers of photoreactive groups (f = 1 to 3) were synthesized and incorporated into acrylic copolymers to formulate UV-curable acrylic adhesives. Structural confirmation of the synthesized photoreactive compounds (f = 2 or 3) was performed using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The introduction of the photoreactive compounds into the acrylic adhesive was accomplished by urethane reactions, and the successful synthesis of the UV-curable acrylic adhesive was verified by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) measurements. To evaluate the performance of the adhesive, the peel strength was evaluated before and after UV irradiation using a silicon wafer as a substrate. The adhesive exhibited high peel strength (~2000 gf/25 mm) before UV exposure, which was significantly reduced (~5 gf/25 mm) after UV exposure. Interestingly, the adhesive containing multifunctional photoreactive compounds showed the most significant reduction in peel strength. In addition, surface residue measurements by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed minimal surface residue (~0.2%) after UV exposure. Overall, these results contribute to the understanding of the behavior of UV-curable acrylic adhesives and pave the way for potential applications in semiconductor manufacturing processes.

하천에서 점착성 유사의 부유사는 입자 표면의 전자기적, 생화학적 점착력과 충돌에 의해 플럭(Floc)을 형성하고 응집된 플럭은 하천의 흐름 및 난류에 의해 파괴되기도 한다. 이 과정을 응집현상이라고 한다. 하천의 점착성 유사는 보통 플럭의 형태를 띠며 응집현상으로 인해 플럭의 밀도와 크기는 지속적으로 변화한다. 일반적으로 변화하는 플럭의 크기는 높은 질량 농도에서 증가한다고 알려져 있다(McAnally and Mehta, 2000; Maggi et al., 2007). 하지만 현장 연구에서 실측된 자료들은 종종 플럭의 크기와 농도가 반비례 관계를 가지는 경향을 보여준다(Gartner et al., 2001; Fettweis et al., 2006; Todd, 2014). 이에 따라 본 연구는 현장의 실측 자료가 일반적인 연구와 다르게 플럭의 크기와 농도가 반비례 관계를 가지는 현상을 규명하기 위해 점착성 유사의 이동을 모의하는 1차원 연직 수치 모형으로 수치 실험을 실시하고 그 결과를 분석한다. 수치 실험은 현장연구와 조건이 비슷한 이상적인 조류조건과 정류상태의 한 방향 흐름(Current Flow)을 함께 발생시키고 점착성 유사의 특징인 응집현상을 고려하였다. 모의 결과, 실측 자료와 같이 총 모의 수심 중 하상과 가까운 측정 수심에서는 플럭의 크기와 농도가 반비례 관계를 가지는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 측정 수심이 수표면 쪽으로 갈수록 플럭 크기와 농도가 비례하는 현상을 보였다. 이와 같이 서로 다른 두 가지 결과를 분석하기 위해 플럭의 크기를 결정하는 대표적인 매개변수인 농도와 난류의 강도를 나타내는 난류소산매개변수(Turbulent shear, G)를 가지고 새로운 매개변수를 만들었다. 플럭의 크기를 결정하는 방정식에서 농도는 응집의 과정에 G는 응집과 파괴의 과정에 관여한다고 알려져 있다. 새로운 매개변수로 총 모의 수심에 걸쳐 분석한 결과 하상에서 수표면 쪽으로 갈 때 난류와 농도 모두 줄어들지만 파괴와 응집의 우세를 나타내는 매개변수가 도치되는 현상을 보였다. 즉 하상부근의 강한 난류와 높은 농도가 응집현상을 만들지만 농도는 응집현상에, 난류는 응집과 파괴 모두 관여하므로 상대적으로 농도와 난류가 만들어내는 응집보다 난류가 만드는 파괴가 강할 때 플럭의 크기가 줄어드는 것으로 예측된다. 이에 따라 점착성 유사의 플럭 크기를 예측할 때에는 플럭의 크기가 농도와 선형의 관계를 가지는 것이 아닌 농도와 난류가 함께 작용하는 비선형 관계임을 고려해야 한다.

미세퇴적물 이동연구는 최근 실험실 실험 또는 현장 자료에 의해 많은 진전을 이루어 왔으나, 아직은 미세, 점착성 퇴적물의 복잡한 과정을 다 고려한 신뢰성 있는 이동예측 수치모델의 개발에 충분한 지식이 축적되어 있지 않다. 수치모델에 의한 예측 기술을 계발하는데 있어서 해결해야 할 중요한 문제는 해저면에서의 퇴적물의 수송량을 정량화하는 일로서 난류하에서 점착성 퇴적물의 복잡한 퇴적 관련 현상에 관한 실험적 연구에 의해 각종 파라미터의 정량화가 요구된다.(중략)

The mechanical behavior of frozen soils is different from that of unfrozen soils due to the phase change between water and ice. The strength characteristics of frozen soils are governed by the intrinsic material properties such as grain size, ice and water content, air bubbles, and by externally imposed testing conditions such as temperature, freezing time, and strain rate. Especially, the strength of the frozen soils is generally higher than that of unfrozen soils due to ice binding capacity with soil particles, and is strongly affected by a highly complex interaction between the solid soil skeleton and the pore matrix, composed of ice and unfrozen water. In this study, the direct shear test and unconfined compression test are carried out inside of a large-scaled freezing chamber, and the relationships between cohesion and unconfined compression strength under various freezing temperature conditions are discussed.

This study investigates the existing models for estimating the shear strength of rock joints, presents related problems, and introduces a newly proposed model to overcome the problems. The results of many experimental tests show that the shear strength of a rock joint depends on many complex factors, including asperity angle, compressive strength, applied normal stress, friction angle, asperity cohesive strength, and progressive damage of asperities. However, the existing models do not account for these factors enough. To overcome these problems, Son (2020) developed a new model to estimate the shear strength of rock joints and confirmed its reliability by comparing with experimental results and existing models. In this paper, the developed model was used to investigate the various factors that affect the joint shear strength, and the results were compared and analyzed. Through this study, the factors that affect the shear strength of the rock joint could be identified in more detail.
