Steel slag produced in steel making process is divided with electric arc furnace slag and converter slag. Compared with the blast furnace slag, converter slag has the expansibility due to the reaction with water and free CaO. Therefore it is specified in Standard Specification for Concrete in Korea that steel slag aggregate must not be used in concrete. In this study, we treat electric arc furnace slag aggregate(EAFSA) for concrete before and after several aging process to reduce expansibility. The fundamental properties are measured, which are specific gravity, unit weight, abrasion value and immersion expansion ratio, as concrete aggregate. To understand the suitability of EAFSA for concrete, we made the concrete with EAFSA and then determined the strength and the volume change in EAFSA concrete. From the results EAFSA treated with steam aging process has potentiality for concrete aggregate.

In this paper, we carried out fundamental experiments to use steel manufacturing slag as a concrete aggregate. Generally, there are two types of slag, the blast-furnace slag and the steel manufacturing slag. The latter is classified by the difference of manufacturing method of steel into the convertor slag and the electric-furnace slag. The steel manufacturing slag mainly contains $SiO_2$ and CaO as the chemical composition. The reaction with water and a little of free CaO in the steel manufacturing slag made the expansion of volume change, Therefore, we primarily investigated physical properties, expansion mechanism, pH value, aging effect and aging methods in the steel manufacturing slag, Then compressive strength of concrete with steel slag aggregate is measured.

The dielectric properties of natural rubbers for electric safety are very important to investigate the molecular structure. The electric safety characteristics of the dielectric absorption in aging vulcanized natural rubber were studied in the range of frequency from 1$\times$10$^3$［Hz］to 3.2$\times$10$^3$［Hz］l at the temperature of 23［$^{\circ}C$］. As the results, it has been confirmed that in the case of aging natural rubber of above 2 phr the specimens exhibit two kinds of dielectric losses due to the dipole polarization by impurities and sulfurs, and of raw rubber exhibit the kind of losses due to the dipole polarization. Rurthermore, dielectric loss maximum tansspectrum in high freguency region for electric safety, which removed to the low freguency according to increasing sulfur, depends greatly on sulfur.

The BI (Ball Indentation) method has the potential to assess the mechanical properties and to replace conventional fracture tests. In this study, the effect of aging on mechanical behavior of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steels procured by isothermal aging heat-treatment at four different aging times in the range of 0～1820 hours at 630$^{\circ}C$, were investigated using BI system.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal embrittlement and the mechanical properties of 2.25Cr-1Mo steel aged at high temperature and stress for 250 hours. Original, aged artificially material were tested to obtain the hardness and impact absorbed energy. Hardness and impact absorbed energy decreased with the increasing aging time. The carbide morphology with the thermal embrittlement was found to contribute to the mechanical property change by X-Ray diffraction method.

After Computer-based PD measurement was referred in the 1970's, the new technology and a number of digital system have been studied. And the selection of PD patterns, extraction of relevant information for PD recognition are discussed because the number of pulse as a function of discharge magnitude and discharge pulse as a function of the power frequency cycl4e offer the information of the aging insulation. This paper investigates the discharge phase($\phi$) and magnitude(q), as well as the number of discharge(n) with regard to discharge signals generated in power cable. Therefore, according to properties analysis on the distribution of $\phi$ , q and n, it is able to apply in the aging analysis of power cable which visual observation is impossible and distribution change of discharge signals offers much information for risk degree on aging progress of insulation materials.

The effect of postmortem aging on the quality of Semimembranosus muscle (SM) from Hanwoo was investigated. The quality of SM was compared with that of Longissimus dorsi muscle (LD). SM contained higher moisture, protein, and ash, and lower fat than LD (p<0.05). The $a^*$ and $b^*$ values of SM were significantly decreased after 21 days of aging. SM showed higher $a^*$ values than LD at 1 and 7 day of aging (p<0.05). The cooking loss of SM was not affect by aging. SM had higher cooking loss than that of LD throughout the aging period. Although the shear force of SM was significantly decreased by aging, SM showed high shear force compared to LD during aging period (p<0.05). Aging increased lipid oxidation in both muscles (p<0.05). However, TBARS value of SM was significantly lower than that of LD throughout the aging period (p<0.05). There was no effect of aging on the betaine and L-carnitine contents of SM. SM contained higher betaine and L-carnitine than LD in all aging days (p<0.05). Therefore, we concluded that consumer acceptability of SM could be increased by aging based on the increase of tenderness in addition to its high nutritional properties.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of aging method (dry or wet) and time (20 d or 40 d) on physical, chemical, and sensory properties of two different muscles (top round and shank) from steers (n=12) using an electronic tongue (ET). Moisture content was not affected by muscle types and aging method (p>0.05). Shear force of dry aged beef was significantly decreased compared to that of wet aged beef. Most fatty acids of dry aged beef were significantly lower than those of wet aged beef. Dry aged shank muscles had more abundant free amino acids than top round muscles. Dry-aging process enhanced tastes such as umami and saltiness compared to wet-aging process according to ET results. Dry-aging process could enhance the instrumental tenderness and umami taste of beef. In addition, the taste of shank muscle was more affected by dry-aging process than that of round muscle.

Changes in physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics of rice-doenjang prepared with two different methods with or without soak treatment were investigated during 60 days of aging at $32^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$. The pH of soak-treated rice-doenjang decreased slowly, but that of nonsoak-treated rice-doenjang decreased rapidly at the initial aging stage with the aging temperature of $32^{\circ}C$, resulting in pH 5.1 after the 60 days of aging time. Reducing sugar contents increased up to the $30{\sim}50$ days of aging time and decreased thereafter. The contents of soluble nitrogen, formol nitrogen, ammoniacal nitrogen and amino nitrogen were more affected by preparation methods than by aging temperatures. Color values depended not only on preparation methods but also on aging temperatures. There were no significant differences in the bacterial counts of rice-doenjang, while apparent differences in the yeast and mold counts by aging temperatures were observed. These results suggested that the properties of soak-treated rice-doenjang were less changed than those of nonsoak-treated rice-doenjang by aging time and temperature. And, with a view point of nitrogen compounds, aging time could be reduced by soak treatment.

The mechanical properties of the various heat treatment conditions on Ti-15Mo-3Nb-3Al-0.2Si alloy plates were examined. XRD patterns from the surface of Ti-15Mo-3Nb-3Al-0.2Si were analyzed as a solution-treated Ti alloy has the single-phase ${\beta}$ structure whereas the aged Ti alloys have the ${\beta}$ matrix embedded with ${\alpha}$ needles. High strength (~1500 MPa) with decent ductility (7%) was obtained by the Ti alloy double aged at $300^{\circ}C$ and $520^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours each. The double-aged alloy exhibits the finer structure than the single-aged alloy at $300^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours because of the higher nucleation rate of ${\alpha}$ needles at an initial low aging temperature ($320^{\circ}C$). TEM observation revealed that the fine nanostructure with ${\alpha}$ needles in the ${\beta}$ matrix ensured the excellent mechanical properties in the double aged Ti-15Mo-3Nb-3Al-0.2Si alloy. In the solution treated alloy, the yield drop, stress-serrations and the ductility minimum typically associated with dynamic strain aging can be attributed to the dynamic interaction between dislocations and oxygen atoms. The yield drop and the stress serration were not observed in aged samples because the geometrically introduced dislocations due to phase precipitates suppressed the dynamic strain aging.
