The electric contact resistance between ball and disk was measured to estimate the real area of contact under dry and lubrication conditions. The results from the measured constriction resistance using the hypothesis of a single circular contact was compared with those of Hertzian contact theory and hardness. The resistance correlated well with the asperity contact area and friction when the ball slides on the flat disk spreaded with lubricant film. Therefore, the constriction resistance method was useful to identify the lubrication regimes with respect to various loads and speeds. The results of this work will aid in better prediction of lubrication regimes with respect to the operating conditions.

미계측 유역에서의 수문 예측은 유역의 다차원 시공간에서 일어나고 있는 수문학적 기능에 대한 깊은 이해와 성찰을 요구한다. 유역면적의 2/3가 미계측 지역인 임진강 유역은 북한지역과 중첩하고 있어 관측자료가 불충분 하고 소량의 관측자료가 존재하더라도 기후변화로 인해 환경이 변화하기 때문에 미계측 지역 연구에 적당하다. 이에 따라 수문학적 반응을 예측할 수 있도록 비접촉 비파괴적인 도구를 이용하여 수집된 자료를 통해 미계측 유역에 대한 정확한 신뢰성 구축을 마련할 필요가 있다고 판단된다. 신뢰성 구축을 위한 방법으로는 현장답사 및 항공사진에 비하여 넓은 지역을 한번에 관측할 수 있는 Landsat TM 영상을 이용하여 북한의 지형과 토지피복특성 등을 구축하고, 준분포형 모형인 SLURP를 이용하여 소유역으로 구분 된 ASA의 하도 추적을 통해 전체유역의 출구지점 유출량을 산정하였다. 또한 예측 불확실성을 감소시키기 위해 wamis에서 제공하는 GIS Data와 위성영상의 Data를 비교하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 미계측 지역의 불확실성을 최소화 시킬 수 있는 비교 분석이 가능하였다.

Roughness of rock joint has generally been characterized based upon geometrical aspects of a two-dimensional surface profile. The appropriate description of joint roughness, however, should consider the features of roughness mobilization at contact areas under normal and shear loads. In this study, direct shear tests were conducted on the replicas of tensile fractured gneiss joints and the influence of the shear direction on the shear behavior and effective roughness was examined. In this procedure, a joint surface was represented as a group of triangular planes, and the steepness of each plane was characterized using the concepts of the active and inactive micro-slope angles. The contact areas at peak strength which were estimated by a numerical method showed that the locations of the contact areas were mainly dependent on the distribution of the micro-slope angle and the shear behavior of joint was dominated by only the fractions with active micro-slope angles. Therefore, a three-dimensional coefficient for the quantification of rock joint roughness is proposed based on the distribution of active micro-slope angle: active roughness coefficient, $C_r$. Comparison of the active roughness coefficient and the peak shear strength obtained from the experiment suggests that the active roughness coefficient is the effective parameter to quantify the surface roughness and estimate the shear behavior of rock joint.

Molinate, a thiolcarbamate herbicide widely used for control weeds in paddy soil, has been suspected for a possibile transportation into surface water due to its relatively high solubility in water. This study was performed to know that how much molinate could be removed during treatment processes for drinking water. The removal effciency of molinate in water was negligible in treatment process of polyaluminium chloride for coagulation. Molinate was gradually decreased up to 60.2% during contact time of 4 hours when chloride, an disinfectant used in water treatment system was treated. And in an hour treatment of ozone, molinate removal ranged $28.9%{\sim}58%$ However by treatment system of granular activated carbon, molinate was removed 93.9 to 100% at all concentrations used with a range of concentrations of granular activated carbon treated. The removal effciency of whole system simulated with removal efficiencies of molinate in each step of treatment processes was 99.5%. Therefore, if molinate happen to come into water treatment facilities, it could be removed effectively through the treatment processes.

Stainless steel was applied as bipolar plate (BP) of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) due to high mechanical strength, electrical conductivity, and good machinability. However, stainless steel was corroded and increased contact resistance resulting PEMFC performance decrease. Although the corrosion resistance could be improved by surface treatment such as noble metal coating, there is a disadvantage of cost increase. The stainless steel corrosion behavior and passive layer influence on PEMFC performance should be studied to improve durability and economics of metal bipolar plate. In this study, SUS316L bipolar plate of 25 cm² active area was manufactured, and experiments were conducted for corrosion behavior at an anode and cathode. The influence of SUS316L BP corrosion on fuel cell performance was measured using the polarization curve, impedance, and contact resistance. The metal ion concentration in drained water was analyzed during fuel cell operation with SUS316L BP. It was confirmed that the corrosion occurs more severely at the anode than at the cathode for SUS316L BP. The contact resistance was increased due to the passivation of SUS316L during fuel cell operation, and metal ions continuously dissolved even after the passive layer formation.

Composite electrodes for rechargeable batteries generally consist of active material, electric conductor, and polymeric binder. And their composition and distribution within the composite electrode determine the electrochemical activity in the electrochemical systems. However, it is not easy to quantify the physical properties of composite electrodes themselves using conventional experimental analysis tools. So, 3D structural modeling and simulation can be an efficient design tool by looking into the contact areas between particles and electric conductivity within the composite electrode. In this study, while maintaining the composition (LiCoO₂ : Super P Li^® : Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVdF) = 93 : 3 : 4 by wt%) and loading level (13 mg cm^-2) of the composite electrode, the effects of LiCoO₂ size (10 ㎛ and 20 ㎛) and electrode density (2.8 g cm^-3, 3.0 g cm^-3, 3.2 g cm^-3, 3.5 g cm^-3, 4.0 g cm^-3) on the physical properties are investigated using a GeoDict software. With this tool, the composite electrode can be efficiently designed to optimize the contact area and electric conductivity.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate biomechanical characteristics of trekking shoes using 3D Bootie method as mimics barefoot form of F Co. that provides the best comfort and plantar pressure dispersion. The control group is normal trekking shoes of M Co. and K Co.. 13 healthy males measured the foot pressure, EMG and GRF. Collected data was analyzed using One-way ANOVA in order to investigate the effects of each trekking shoes. The results are as follows: Trekking shoe of F Co. was significantly wider in contact area than others at MF and significantly lower in maximum force, peak pressure than others at RF. In the case of muscle activity, acted in the same way as the effect of barefoot walking. In the case of GRF, effectively absorbed the impact force, so it is possible to efficient walking. As a result of the analysis, trekking shoe using of 3D Bootie method of F Co. can be efficient walking by reducing the load of foot during walking.

The purpose of this study was to compare plantar pressure and COP parameters in three types of arch support insole during stair descent in elderly with flatfoot. A total of 14 women elderly were recruited for this study. Pedar-X was used to obtain plantar pressure(peak pressure, mean pressure, and contact area) and COP(distance, displacement, excursion) parameters. One-way ANOVAs were used to compare peak pressure, mean pressure, and contact area, distance of COP, displacement of COP, and excursion of COP. Among the plantar pressure parameters, significant(p<0.05) differences were observed in M3 for the peak pressure, M2, M3, and M4 for the mean pressure, and M2, M3, and M6 for the contact area. Among the COP parameters, distances of COP both in the mediolateral and anteroposterior axes revealed significant(p<0.05) differences. The larger peak pressure values of type A and B insoles were observed as compared to normal insole. The larger peak pressure and shorter COP distance values of type A and B insoles were observed as compared to normal insole.

일반적으로 TiO2는 광촉매 작용으로 표면 살균성을 가지며, 친수특성으로 인한 자가세정 능력도 가지고 있다. 또한 지구상에 많이 존재하는 광물로 원료의 가격이 저렴하다는 장점이 있어 산업 전반에 사용되고 있다. 하지만 외부의 환경적 오염으로 인한 광촉매 반응 면적의 감소에 따라 반응효율이 저하되는 단점이 있으며, SiO2는 투명한 유리와 같이 비정질상태가 안정하고 높은 굴절률을 가지며 내구성이 외부환경에 강해 무반사 코팅이나 금속박막의 보호층으로 주로 사용된다. WO3는 높은 굴절률과 가시광선 영역에서의 우수한 투과율을 가지고 있으나 conduction band에서 생성된 광캐리어들이 빠르게 재결합 하여 광분해 효율이 좋지 않기 때문에 흔히 쓰이지 않고 있다. 이러한 박막들의 단점을 보완하기 위해 물리적 구조를 변화시켜 반응 면적을 극대화하기 위해 버퍼층이나 다층박막을 사용하는 등 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 Slide glass에 Plasma etching 하였을때 친수성이 나타나는 특성을 이용하여 대면적 코팅과 표면 경도를 우수하게 만들 수 있는 RF Magnetron sputtering법으로 Slide glass에 Ar Gas 분위기에서 각 파워별 Plasma etching한 후 TiO2, SiO2, WO3 박막을 증착하여 광학적, 구조적 특성을 분석하였다. 광투과율 측정장치(UV-VIS Spectrophotometer)를 사용하여 투과율을 측정한 결과 모든 박막이 가시광 영역에서 80% 이상의 높은 투과율을 나타내었으며, 접촉각 측정결과 100w로 etching한 glass에 TiO2를 증착한 박막에서 가장 낮은 $3^{\circ}$ 이하의 접촉각을 나타내었다. SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) 분석을 통해 표면구조를 관찰한 결과 100w로 etching한 후 TiO2를 증착한 박막이 가장 조밀한 구조를 보였으며, AFM (Atomic Force MicroScope) 분석 결과 100w로 etching한 후 TiO2를 증착한 박막의 표면이 가장 거칠어지는 것을 볼 수 있었는데, 이는 물과 닿는 박막의 유효 표면적의 증가로 인하여 광촉매 효과가 증가하였기 때문에 친수성이 향상된 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 박막은 건물 유리벽과 자동차의 내 외장재 전자기기용 광학 필름에 자가세정, 내반사 코팅소재, 디스플레이 표시장치로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구는 중소기업청에서 지원하는 2011년도 산학연 공동기술개발 지원사업의 연구수행으로 인한 결과물임을 밝힙니다.
