To determine the effect of chain length and chemical structure of linear amine curing agents on thermal and mechanical properties, a standard bifunctional linear DGEBF epoxy resin was cured with EDA and HMDA having amine group at the both ends of main chain in a stoichiometrically equivalent ratio in condition of preliminary and post cure. From this work, the effect of linear amine curing agents on the thermal and mechanical properties is significantly influenced by numbers of carbon atoms of main chain. In contrast, the results show that the DCEBF/EDA system having two carbons had higher values in the thermal stability, density, shrinkage (%), grass transition temperature, tensile modulus and strength, flexural modulus and strength than the DGEBF/HMDA system having six carbons, whereas the DGEBF/EDA cure system had relatively low values in maximum ekothermic temperature, maximum conversion of epoxide, thermal expansion coefficient than the DGEBF/HDMA cure system. These findings indicate that the packing capability (rigid property) in the EDA structure affects the thermal and mechanical properties predominantly. It shows that flexural fracture properties have a close relation to flexural modulus and strength.

In this study, korean wheat composite flour and dough were prepared with 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6% Nelumbo nucifera G. tea powder(NNTP). The samples and a control were then compared qualitatively in terms of moisture, protein, ash, and wet gluten content. The farinogram, amylogram, and extensogram characteristics of the dough were also examined, in order to determine the optimal ratio of NNTP for the formulation. According to our results, the moisture content of the flour decreased with increasing NSPP content, whereas its protein and ash content, resistance, and R/E ratio at 135 min of extensogram increased. The NNTP samples had a significantly higher water absorption and weakness of farinogram and maximum resistance at 45, 90, and 135 min. Additionally, samples had an R/E ratio at 45 min of extensogram, 90 min less than the control group. However, stability of the farinogram, temperature of maximum and maximum viscosity of the amylogram, and extensibility of the extensogram showed the reverse effect. The control and NNTP samples showed significant differences in gelatinization beginning temperature of the amylogram, while development time of the farinogram was not significantly different. With regard to the extensogram characteristics of the dough, the area of the control and 1.5% NNTP increased with increasing testing time, whereas at 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0% NNTP, extensibility, and resistance, maximum resistance, and R/E ratio of control and NNTP samples decreased. An area of 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0% NNTP and extensibility of 1.5% NNTP were not significantly different among the testing times. In conclusion, these results show that 1.5% NNTP may prove very useful as a substitute for korean wheat flour where the production of korean wheat white bread is concerned. It may also provide good nutritional and functional properties.

With the aim of using a filler material in a conductive paste, fine Cu nanoparticles were synthesized through the high-speed chemical reaction between cuprous oxide ($Cu_2O$) powder and sulfuric acid in distilled water. Under external temperature of $7^{\circ}C$, sulfuric acid concentration of 48%, and $Cu_2O$ amount of 30 g, the $Cu_2O$ particles were eliminated and slightly aggregated Cu nanoparticles were synthesized. Futhermore, Cu nanoparticles of 224 nm, in which the aggregation between particles was obviousiy much suppressed, were synthesized with the choice of an additive. In the particle sample, occasionally there are coarse particles formed by the aggregation of fine nanoparticles and weak linkages between the nanoparticles. However, the coarse particles were destroyed and the linkages were broken after mixing with a resin formulation, indicating the behavior of untangling the aggregation between nanoparticles.

Microwave dielectric properties of $(1-x)CaWO_4-xYNbO_4$ ceramics have been investigated as a function of $YNbO_4$ content($0.05{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$). A single phase with tetragonal scheelite structure was obtained up to x=0.10 and then the secondary phase with fergusonite structure was increased. With the increase of $YNbO_4$ content, apparent densities of the specimens were decreased. This results were due to the lower theoretical density of $YNbO_4(5.581g/cm^3)$ than that of $CaWO_4(6.117g/cm^3)$. Dielectric constant(K) and quality factor(Qf) were decreased with $YNbO_4$ content which could be attribute to the decrease of density and the increase of secondary phase. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) of the specimens with the $YNbO_4$ content was depended on dielectric mixing rule.

Hydroxyapatite(HA)/TiO$_2$ composite powders were prepared by mixing of spherical TiO$_2$ (10-15 nm, 500 nm) and needle-shaped HA (50-70 nm, 120-250 nm) powders which had been synthesized through precipitation, sol-gel and hydrothermal methods. From the three types of starting composite powders (HA/TiO$_2$ wt% of 75/25, 50/50, and 25/75), dense $\beta$-TCP/TiO$_2$ composites were prepared by hot-pressing at 800-100$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min under the pressure of 30 ㎫ in Af atmosphere. The $\beta$-TCP/TiO$_2$ composites showed different microstructures and sintering densities depending on their powder morphology, composition and sintering temperature. With increasing the sintering temperature and the content of TiO$_2$, sintered density was increased and microstructure became more homogeneous.

In this study, the electrical characteristics of Ni/CNT/$SiO_2$ structures were investigated in order to analyze the mechanism of carbon nanotubes in 4H-SiC MIS device structures. We fabricated 4H-SiC MIS capacitors with or without carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes were dispersed by isopropyl alcohol. The capacitance-voltage (C-V) is characterized at 300 to 500K. The experimental flat-band voltage ($V_{FB}$) shift was positive. Near-interface trapped charge density and oxide trapped charge density values of Ni/CNT/$SiO_2$ structure were less than values of reference samples. With increasing temperature, the flat-band voltage was negative. It has been found that its oxide quality is related to charge carriers or defect states in the interface of 4H-SiC MIS capacitors. Gate characteristics of 4H-SiC MIS capacitors can be controlled by carbon nanotubes between Ni and $SiO_2$.

In this paper, a wideband ultra-high speed & high purity discrete frequency synthesizer having minimum 2.5 MHz step size was proposed. To achieve fast and wideband operation, discrete frequencies were synthesized by mixing of 3 different pre-synthesized 16 frequencies made from fixed PLL and frequency dividers. Frequencies with discrete 2.5 MHz step were produced in 710~1,610 MHz. The measured hopping response time was 350 nsec average, output level was 21.5 dBm average with 2.65 dB flatness, spurious and harmonics level were suppressed below -60 dBc, and phase noise was -94 dBc/Hz@100 Hz. Also, a new measurement method for synthesizer response time was described.

The Taechong Dam completed in 1980 is a composite dam at which a junction was formed partly by butting the core against the end face of the concrete gravity section and partly by the core overlapping the upstream face of the concrete. In order to evaluate the performance of the junction, the interfaces between the concrete dam and core of the embankment dam were well instrumented with total pressure cells and piezometers. A nonlinear incremental finite element analysis simulating its construction behaviour was carried out under plane strain conditions. Material parameters for the core are determined from triaxial tests on the specimens, sampled in the quarry site and compacted to the field dry density at the field moisture content. Material parameters for the filter, transition materials and the rockfill are estimated from literature. When compared with the earth pressures measured at the interfaces, the analytical results show good agreement in the core, however, there are some discrepancy in the shell. A nonlinear model for pore pressure response is used successfully to predict the pore pressures at the interface in the core.

In order to increase the electrical conductivity and the mechanical properties of carbon fabric composites, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were deposited on carbon fabrics by anodic and cathodic electrophoretic deposition (EPD) processes. In the cathodic EPD, carbon nano-particles and nano-sized Cu particles were simultaneously deposited on the carbon fabric, which gave a synergetic effect on the enhancement of properties as well as the degree of deposition. The hybridization of carbon nano-particles and micron-sized carbon fiber significantly improved the through-the-thickness electrical conductivity. In addition, both MWCNTs and CNFs were deposited onto the carbon fabric for multi-scale hybrid composites. Multi-scale deposition improved the through-the-thickness electrical conductivity, compared to the deposition of either MWCNTs or CNFs.

본 연구에서는 3차원 수리해석과 함께 유사의 이송, 침식, 퇴적 현상을 연동하여 모의할 수 있는 유한차분 수치모형인 EFDC(Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code)를 이용하여 주운하천 구간으로 유입되는 다입경 혼합유사의 입경별 시 공간적 퇴적분포 특성을 고찰하고, 하상변동 예측에 있어서 유사의 밀도와 모델의 유한차분 격자 구조에 의한 불확실성 해석을 수행하였다. 유입 유사의 입경별 공간적 퇴적특성은 하천 하류부와 단면 확대부에서 발생하는 3차원적 수리현상과 매우 밀접한 상관성을 보였으며, 굴포천과 합류하는 주운수로 유입부에서는 대부분 입경이 큰 비점착성 유사($63{\mu}m$ 이상)인 사질(sand)입자들이 주로 퇴적되는 것으로 나타났으며, 주운하천 합류부로부터 하류구간까지는 $4\sim63{\mu}m$ 입자의 실트질(silt) 유사가 대부분 이송되어 퇴적되는 것으로 분석되었다. 점착성 유사인 $4{\mu}m$ 이하의 점토(clay)는 단면이 확대되어 유속이 매우 느린 구간이나 사수역을 중심으로 퇴적되는 것으로 나타났다. 단면 횡방향 분포특성은 굴포천과 주운하천이 합류하는 합류부 구간의 주흐름 방향 남쪽에서 흐름의 정체구간이 발생되어 퇴적이 발생하고, 단면 급확대부 양안에서 사수역이 형성되므로 퇴적이 지배적으로 발생되었다. 하상변동 예측의 불확실성 해석을 위해 유사 밀도값에 대한 민감도 분석결과, 하상변동량은 유사밀도($1.3ton/m^3\sim2.65ton/m^3$)가 감소됨에 따라 약 2배까지 증가하는 것으로 분석되어 민감도가 매우 크게 나타났다. 또한 수치격자 구조의 민감도 분석결과, 수층을 3개 층으로 분석한 결과가 단일층 분석결과보다 최대 6배의 하상변동량이 많게 산정되었다. 이는 수심방향의 유속과 부유사 농도의 불균등 분포특성이 실제 자연현상에 더 가깝게 모의되기 때문으로 판단되었다.
