Torsional behavior of concrete pavement slabs due to temperature and moisture effects is constrained by self weight and friction etc, and causes stress as the result. The stress due to humidity variation in the slab is difficult to calculate while that due to temperature variation can easily be calculated by a commercial structural analysis program. Thus, the slab behavior can be predicted more accurately if the humidity effect is converted to equivalent temperature and is used as an input of structural analysis. In this study, a concrete pavement slab was constructed and strains of the slab due to environmental loadings were measured for long-term period. Thermal strains were subtracted from the measured strains by using thermal expansion coefficient of the concrete measured in a laboratory. Shrinkage strains, the remained strains, was supposed as additional thermal strains to calculate imaginary temperature with equivalent effect of the shrinkage by dividing the shrinkage with the thermal expansion coefficient. An existing shrinkage model was modified by considering the self weight and friction to be used in another model which can convert differential shrinkage between top and bottom of the slab to equivalent temperature difference. Addition research efforts on tensile stress reduction according to steady increase in the compressive strains are warranted for more accurate stress calculation.

Recently, the number of components of smartphones increases rapidly, while the PCB size continuously decreases. Therefore, 3D technology with a stacked PCB has been developed to improve component density in smartphone. For the s tacked PCB, it i s very important to obtain solder bonding quality between PCBs. We investigated the effects of the properties, thickness, and number of layers of interposer PCB and sub PCB on warpage of PCB through experimental and numerical analysis to improve the reliability of the stacked PCB. The warpage of the interposer PCB decreased as the thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) of the prepreg decreased, and decreased as the glass transition temperature (Tg) increased. However, if temperature is 240℃ or higher, the reduction of warpage is not large. As FR-5 was applied, the warpage decreased more compared to FR-4, and the higher the number and thickness of the prepreg, the lower the warpage. For sub PCB, the CTE was more important for warpage than Tg of the prepreg, and increase in prepreg thickness was more effective in reducing the warpage. The shear tests indicated that the dummy pad design increased bonding strength. The tumble tests indicated that crack occurrence rate was greatly reduced with the dummy pad.

Since 1980, the number of universities have increased dramatically. However, compared to the quantitative growth, the lack of qualitative growth has often been criticized. Students entering university are estimated to decrease by half in 2025 compared to 2014. In swift response to challenges with decreasing student enrollment, the first University Reform Evaluation (URE) for innovating universities, was conducted and resulted in controversy. Opposition is based on distrust of the overall system, questioning the reliability of the evaluation process utilized for the URE evaluation index. Meta-evaluation is required to improve the quality of evaluation, and standards developed prior to conducting the URE. Therefore, an interdisciplinary approach is necessary for the evaluation of human resource development. This research uses the interdisciplinary approach from the human resources development point of view in attempting to develop meta-evaluation criteria which will enable effective evaluation and analysis of URE. The meta-evaluation standard features the creation of the ERPOU model, by conducting literature review, and considers data from expert symposiums, and surveys. The ERPOU model consists of 5 evaluation fields, 21 evaluation categories, and 42 evaluation standards.

1. Since long time ago, it has been talked about that soaking wood into water for a long time would be profitable for the decreasing of defects such as checking, cupping and bow due to the undue-shrinking and swelling. There are, however, no any actual data providing this fact definitly, although there are some guesses that water soluble extractives might effect on this problem. On the other hand, this is a few work which has been done about the effect of water soluble extractives upon the some physical properties of wood and that it might be related to the above mentioned problem. If man does account for that whether soaking wood into water for a long time would be profitable for the decreasing of defects due to the undue-shrinking and swelling in comparison with unsoaking wood or not, it may bring a great contribution on the reasonable uses of wood. To account for the effect of water soluble extractives upon physical properties of wood, this study has been made at the wood technology laboratory, School of Forestry, Yale university, under competent guidance of Dr. F. F. Wangaard, with the following three different species which had been provided at the same laboratory. 1. Pinus strobus 2. Quercus borealis 3. Hymenaea courbaril 2. The physical properties investigated in this study are as follows. a. Equilibrium moisture content at different relative humidity conditions. b. Shrinkage value from gre condition to different relative humidity conditions and oven dry condition. c. Swelling value from oven dry condition to different relative humidity conditions. d. Specific gravity 3. In order to investigate the effect of water soluble extractives upon physical properties of wood, the experiment has been carried out with two differently treated specimens, that is, one has been treated into water and the other into sugar solution, and with controlled specimens. 4. The quantity of water soluble extractives of each species and the group of chemical compounds in the extracted liquid from each species have shown in Table 36. Between species, there is some difference in quantity of extractives and group of chemical compounds. 5. In the case of equilibrium moisture contents at different relative humidity condition, (a) Except the desorption case at 80% R. H. C. (Relative Humidity Condition), there is a definite line between untreated specimens and treated specimens that is, untreated specimens hold water more than treated specimens at the same R.H.C. (b) The specimens treated into sugar solution have shown almost the same tendency in results compared with the untreated specimens. (c) Between species, there is no any definite relation in equilibrium moisture content each other, however E. M. C. in heartwood of pine is lesser than in sapwood. This might cause from the difference of wood anatomical structure. 6. In the case of shrinkage, (a) The shrinkage value of the treated specimen into water is more than that of the untreated specimens, except anyone case of heartwood of pine at 80% R. H. C. (b) The shrinkage value of treated specimens in the sugar solution is less than that of the others and has almost the same tendency to the untreated specimens. It would mean that the penetration of some sugar into the wood can decrease the shrinkage value of wood. (c) Between species, the shrinkage value of heartwood of pine is less than sapwood of the same, shrinkage value of oak is the largest, Hymenaea is lesser than oak and more than pine. (d) Directional difference of shrinkage value through all species can also see as other all kind of species previously tested. (e) There is a definite relation in between the difference of shrinkage value of treated and untreated specimens and amount of extractives, that is, increasing extractives gives increasing the difference of shrinkage value between treated and untreated specimens. 7. In the case of swelling, (a) The swelling value of treated specimens is greater than that of the untreated specimens through all cases. (b) In comparison with the tangential direction and radial direction, the swelling value of tangential direction is larger than that of radial direction in the same species. (c) Between species, the largest one in swelling values is oak and the smallest pine heartwood, there are also a tendency that species which shrink more swell also more and, on the contrary, species which shrink lesser swell also lesser than the others. 8. In the case of specific gravity, (a) The specific gravity of the treated specimens is larger than that of untreated specimens. This reversed value between treated and untreated specimens has been resulted from the volume of specimen of oven dry condition. (b) Between species, there are differences, that is, the specific gravity of Hymenaea is the largest one and the sapwood of pine is the smallest. 9. Through this investigation, it has been concluded that soaking wood into plain water before use without any special consideration may bring more hastful results than unsoaking for use of wood. However soaking wood into the some specially provided solutions such as salt water or inorganic matter may be dissolved in it, can be profitable for the decreasing shrinkage and swelling, checking, shaking and bow etc. if soaking wood into plain water might bring the decreasing defects, it might come from even shrinking and swelling through all dimension.

In this paper, a method for evaluating optical-system performance and an athermal structure through thermal analysis of the Korsch telescope was studied. In the case of an optical system having a complex asymmetrical structure, there is a limit to implementing the satellite structure by applying the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) in the optical-design software, so it is difficult to evaluate the performance of the optical system against temperature changes. To solve this problem, using mechanical design software all length changes were implemented in all structures that affect the optical system according to temperature, and the value of the change in distance between optical components due to temperature change was organized. Also, the values of changes in shape and thickness of the optical components against temperature changes are organized in the optical-design software. All changes derived from both software packages were applied in the optical software to evaluate the performance of the optical system. As a result, it was found that the MTF for a spatial resolution of 71.4 cycles/mm was maintained at more than 25% in the range from 9 ℃ to 33 ℃. In addition, the performance of the optical system applying the improved structure was evaluated, by finding the structure that had the most influence on the optical system's performance change, and deriving an athermal structure to reduce the effect. As a result, it was found that the MTF for a resolution of 71.4 cycles/mm was maintained at over 67% in the range from 9 ℃ to 33 ℃.

Concrete is vulnerable to cracks due to volume changes caused by temperature changes, shrinkage during curing, external forces, or poor construction. In particular, concrete placed in electric power tunnel structures can generate cracks by a variety of factors. As a result, these tunnel structures require continuous maintenance. In this study, we investigated the mechanical properties of electric power tunnel concrete using alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate, which is an industrial byproduct that has excellent expansion performance. To compensate for the decrease in compressive strength when substituting alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate, based on previous research, we added 9% alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate and adjusted the amount of admixture while using the same amount of cement. We then evaluated the mechanical properties of the concrete. The results showed that the compressive strength of the concrete was higher than that of ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and the shrinkage of concrete was reduced by more than 30% compared to that of OPC. Therefore, adding 9% of alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate is expected to have a significant effect in reducing concrete cracks.

실리콘 (Si) 기판 위에 고품질의 갈륨질화물 (GaN) 박막을 성장시키기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있다. 실리콘 기판은 사파이어 기판 보다 경제적인 측면에서 유리하고, 실리콘 직접화 공정에 GaN 소자를 쉽게 접목 가능하다는 장점이 있다. GaN 박막은 2차원 전자 가스형성을 통한 고속소자, 직접 천이형 밴드갭을 이용한 발광소자 및 고전압 소자로써 활용 가능한 물질이다. 종래에는 Si(100) 및 Si(111) 기판 위에 GaN 박막 성장에 대한 연구가 주로 진행되었다. 하지만 대칭성과 격자 불일치도 등 결정학적 특성을 고려할 때 Si(100) 기판 위에 고품질의 GaN 박막을 성장시키는 것은 쉽지 않다. Si(111) 기판은 실리콘 소자 직접화 공정에 적합하지 못한 단점을 가지고 있다. 반면, 최근 Si(110) 기판 위에서 비등방적 변형 제어를 통한 고품질 GaN 박막 성장이 보고 되어 실리콘 집적 소자와 결합한 고전압 소자 및 고속소자 구현에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 투과전자현미경 연구를 바탕으로 Si(110) 기판 위에 성장된 GaN의 미세구조에 관한 연구를 소개한다. 열팽창계수의 차이에 의한 GaN 박막 내 결함 생성을 줄이기 위하여 AlN 완충층이 사용되었다. GaN 박막을 암모니아 ($NH_3$) 유량이 다른 조건에서 성장시킴으로써 GaN 박막 미세구조의 암모니아 유량 의존성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. GaN 박막에서 투과전자현미경 연구와 X-ray 회절 연구를 통하여 결함 거동 및 결정성을 확인하였다. $NH_3$ 유랑이 증가함에 따라 GaN의 성장 거동이 3차원에서 2차원으로 변화됨을 관찰하였다. 또한, 전위밀도의 증가도 확인되었다. $NH_3$ 유량이 낮은 경우 GaN 전위는 AlN와 GaN 경계에 주로 위치하고 GaN 표면 근처에는 전위밀도가 감소하였으나, $NH_3$ 유량이 높을 경우 GaN 박막 표면까지 전위가 관통됨을 확인하였다.

This paper estimates the structural performance of spirally confined concrete having electric arc furnace (EAF) oxidizing slag aggregates. The EAF oxidizing slag is a by-product generated from iron and steel industry. The EAF oxidizing slag have been largely put to low-value-added uses due to its expansive properties of the free-CaO and free-MgO. Recently, this problem has been solved by the advances in steelmaking technology and thereby stabilizing EAF oxidizing slag aggregate. To verify the application of the EAF oxidizing slag aggregate to the structural concrete usage, a total of 27 cylindrical specimens with a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 300 mm were cast and tested. The test parameters were aggregate type and spiral reinforcement yield strength. Experimental results showed that the structural performance of specimens with EAF oxidizing slag aggregates was equivalent to that of confined concrete with natural aggregates.

A coupled thermomechanical analysis of composite structures in pyrolysis and ablation environments is performed. The pyrolysis and ablation models include the effects of mass loss, pore gas diffusion, endothermic reaction energy, surface recession, etc. The thermal and structural analysis interface is based upon a staggered coupling algorithm by using a commercial finite element code. The characteristics of the proposed method are investigated through numerical experiments with carbon/phenolic composites. The numerical studies are carried out to examine the surface recession rate by chemical and mechanical ablation. In addition, the effects of shrinkage or intumescence during the pyrolysis process are shown.

The structure which is located in special surroundings like ocean-environment is physically and chemically eroded by seawater or salt damage, and then concrete-structure becomes deteriorated by iron corrosion and swelling pressure which leads to remarkably decline durability due to cracks and exploitation. As a measure against salt damage, it is actively being examined to use the blended cement that controls salt damage and fix chloride in the process of hydration. In this study, therefore, to examine the property of marine concrete added admixture, marine concrete is manufactured by adding high-strength admixture(omega2000) by 0, 5, 10, and 15% to low heat-blended cement. Then it shows that the compressive strength of manufactured marine cement tends to increase and chloride penetration resistance improves.
