This paper presents a novel structure for a diesel particulate filter (DPF) with inclined gas paths, which was designed so that the gas paths offered a fluent flow of exhaust gases, and particulate matter (PM) was collected at pores formed in the body. The alumina porous filter was prepared by a conventional sintering process at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Straight gas paths with $30^{\circ}$ of inclination from the gas flow direction were formed in the filter body. It is shown that this filter structure worked as a PM filter, in which 90.2% of soot filtration efficiency and 59.6 mbar of pressure drop were achieved.

For the process control of silicon nitride gelcasting, the effect of MeOH on the apparent gel induction time of slip, drying rate, and mechanical property of gelcast body were investigated. The apparent gel induction time showed maximum at 10~20 vol% MeOH and the drying rate of gelcast body increased in the ranged of 25~40%. The gelcast body was still machinable in the 40% of MeOH, though the mechanical property and relative density slightly decreased with increasing the amount of MeOH.

This paper describes with the stator analysis and design of a ring type ultrasonic motor. The design for piezoelectric ceramic and elastic body of stator were calculated by using the finite element method (FEM) that consider the resonance frequency, vibration mode and coupling efficiency. Namely, such results were acquired the calculation result of the piezoelectric ceramic thickness 0.5[mm], elastic body thickness 2.0[mm], resonance frequency 51.8[kHz], vibration mode 7 order and coupling efficient 12.5[%], the outer and inner diameter of vibrator 50[mm], 38[m]. On the basis of such result, the ring type ultrasonic motor was manufactured. Also for driving characteristics of ring type ultrasonic motor, 2-phase inverter was constructed. Then the propriety of this paper was established from comparision of the simulation and an experiment results of the ring type ultrasonic motor.

When forming the ceramic body with plastic mass, it is needed that a quantitative testing method for plasticity, not only to evaluate the plasticity of a body, but also to control it within limits. Although many testing instruments were introduced, but no handy testing instrument for the plasticity quantitatively has been developed. In this study, modified vicat needle was designed to handily evaluate the plasicity of extruding bodies for honeycomb. The plasticity of three plastic masses was tested with this equipment. Columned needle with 2 mm diameter was adopted to measure the resistance for deformation and spherical needle with 9.5 mm diameter was adopted to measure the amount of deformation before cracking. The plasticity of three tested bodies were clearly distinguished quantitatively each other and the testing results were helpful to evaluated the workability of theses bodies. Probably, it is possible to evaluate the plasticity of various ceramic bodies with this apparatus, if suitable diameters of columns and spheres are selected.

This paper aims to examine ceramic shade prescriptions for work authorizations in all its aspectclincal information, recording information, technical considerations, extended application, practical applications. The results are as follows : 1. The basic application provides essential data for ceramic veneer fabrication. 2.Three-dimensional information divides the space for body and enamel components. 3. The second body shade selection improves shade matching in the middle one-third of the tooth and enhences the appearance of the enamel component. 4. Ceramists are encouraged to recognize the influence each component has upon the total shade composition. 5. A format is established for recording clinical information. 6. The use of available ceramic systems is seemingly unlimited. The method presented provides flexisility for recording the most detailed shade information in simple graphic and verbal terms. 7. Technical simplification is a by-product of complete, precise work information.

In this paper, we fabricated ceramic body and sapphire wafer in order to develop a hydraulic pressure sensor with high sensitivity and high temperature stability. The sapphire wafer was adopted with a membrane of capacitance ceramic pressure sensor. The capacitance value of the sensor for the finite element analysis(FEM) showed a linear pressure characteristics. Membrane was processed with a diameter of 32.4 mm and a thickness of 1 mm by using alumina powders. Ceramic body was processed with a diameter 32.4 mm and a thickness 5 mm. The capacitance pressure sensor was made with high heat treatment of the ceramic body and the sapphire wafer. Initially capacitance of the pressure sensor was 50 pF and a capacitance of 110 pF was measured from 5 bar pressure. Output voltage of 5 V was appeared at 5 bar pressure.

High strength cement hardened body was prepared by ordinary portland cement, silica-fume, super-plasticizer and the industrial by-product powder such as tailing, paper sludge ash and granulated slag. These raw materials were mixed and formed with w/c=0.18. The cement hardened body is cured in the autoclave at 18$0^{\circ}C$, 10atm. These admixtures made the compressive strength of all specimens develope by 170~230%. The highest compressive strength could be obtained by 236 MPa when mix composition was 14 wt% of silica-fume and 26 wt% of granulated slag. The compressive strength increased with decreasing the average pore size and the amount of the poe over the size of 50 nm by which the appearance of high compressive strength of the cement hardened body were mainly influenced. In the result, the hydration products were C-S-H, tobermorite and ettringite and it was realized that the reason why the cement hardened body became dense and revealed the higher strength was that those hydrates were formed inside of the pore and filled in it and the unhydrated materials played the role of an inner-filler.

Abalone shell is a high strength and light weighted ceramic composite material, which is composed of $CaCO_3$ platelet and protein. Microstructure of abalone shell has a matrix structure that is similar to the bricks and mortar. The technology inspired from nature which consumes low energy at low temperature is called bioinspired technology. In this study, to make high strength and light weighted ceramic composite materials using bioinspired technology, porous green body was prepared with $Al_2O_3$ platelet. PMMA was infiltrated into the porous green body, then warm pressed to eliminate pores present in the composite. The microstructure of the composite was observed with FESEM, and the mechanical/thermal properties were measured.

The investigation includes the application of $ZrSiO_4-Cd(SxSe_{1-x})$stain to ceramic body. The currently developed stain was compared to the commercially available stain in applying to ceremic glaze. Two stains (currently developed and commecially available) were mixed with frits and applied to ceramic tiles. The tiles were fired at 850 to 120$0^{\circ}C$ and tested by colorimeter in X.Y.Z. axis of the wavelength ranging from 580nm to 650nm. Applicability 18 stains to ceramic body was investigated by ISCC-NBS of Munsell color nomenclature. $ZrSiO_4-Cd(SxSe_{1-x})$stain is as good as V and Pr series stain in mixing composition of frits 9 to 1. It maintains red color at 100$0^{\circ}C$ in the mixture of frits, and shows as the strong acid resistance stain.

Onggi, described as a 'breathing' type of pottery' has significantly influenced the traditional food culture of Korea. It is known that Onggi is an optimal type of storage for fermented foods such as soy sauce, salted seafood, and Kimchi, as air or liquid can penetrate through the body of this material. These foods gain flavor due to the breeding of aerobic bacteria at the beginning of the fermentation process. In this study, Onggi materials from five regions, Gangjin, Yeoju, Ulsan, Yesan, and Jeju, were collected and analyzed to determine their chemical and physical properties before and after sintering. The differences in the raw materials of other mining regions are examined in terms of their chemical and mineralogical compositions, specific surface area, particle size, and particle distribution. Among them, the Gangjin raw material has the greatest mean particle size of $92.29{\mu}m$, as well as the widest particle size distribution. Differences in the levels of $SiO_2$ and $Fe_2O_3$ are shown among Onggi raw materials. However, the crystalline phases formed after sintering are identical, except for the Jeju samples. At all sintering temperatures tested here, Gangjin Onggi showed the greatest porosity, leading to complete air permeation through the body within 90 minutes. These results taken together indicate that air permeation is strongly related to the pore structures in the Onggi body. This is assumed to affect the fermentation behavior.
