Surface and mechanical properties of thin films with submicron thickness was characterized by nanoindentation with Berkovich and Vickers tips, and scanning probe microscopy. Nanoindention was made in a depth range of 15 to 200 nm from the surface by applying tiny force in a range from 150 to $9,000 \mu$N. Stiffness, contact area, hardness, and elastic modulus were determined from the force-displacement curve obtained. Reliability was first tested by using fused quartz, a standard sample. Elastic modulus and hardness values of fused quartz measured were the same as those reported in the literature within two percent of error. Mechanical properties of ITO thin film were characterized in a depth range of 15∼200nm. As indentation depth increased, elastic modulus and hardness decreased by substrate effect. Ion beam deposited DLC thin films were indented in a depth range of 40∼50 nm. The results showed that the DLC thin film using benzene and bias voltage 0∼-50 V has elastic modulus and hardness value of 132 and 18 GPa respectively. Pure DLC thin films showed roughnesses lower than 0.25 nm, but silicon-added DLC thin films showed much higher roughness values, and the wavy surface morphology.

Recently, it has been studied for the application of nano-materials in the concrete. Applied a small amount of nano-materials can achieve the goal of high strength, high performance and high durability. The small addition of nano clay improves strength, thermal stability, and durability of concrete because of the excellent dispersion. The present study has investigated the effectiveness, when varying with the contents of nano clay, influencing the pull-out behavior of macro synthetic fibers in nano materials cement mortar. Pullout tests conducted in accordance with the Japan Concrete Institute (JCI) SF-8 standard for fiber-reinforced concrete test methods were used to evaluate the pullout performance of the different nano clay. Nano clay was added to the 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 % of cement weight. The experimental results demonstrated that the addition of nano clay led to improve the pull-out properties as of the load-displacement curve in the precracked and debonded zone. Also, the compressive strength, flexural strength and pullout performance and of Mix No. 1 and No. 2 increased up to the point when nano clay used increased by 2 and 3 % contents, respectively, but decreased when the exceeded 3 and 4 %, respectively. It was proved by verifying increase of the scratching phenomenon in macro synthetic fiber surface through the microstructure analysis on the surface of macro synthetic fiber.

In this paper the characteristics of submicron gate GaAs MESFET's have been studied using a particle model which takes into account the hot-electron transport phenomena, i.e., the velocity overshoot. \ulcornervalley(<000> direction), L valley (<111>direction), X valley (<100>direction) as the GaAs conduction energy band and optical phonon, acoustic phonon, equivalent intervalley, nonequivalent intervalley scattering as the scattering models, have been considered in this simulation. And the GaAs material and the device simulation have been done by determination of the free flight time, scattering mechanism and scattering angle according to Monte-Carlo algorithm which makes use of a particle model. As a result of the particle simulation, firstly the electron distribution, the potential energy distribution and the situation of electron displacement in 0.6 \ulcorner gate length device have been obtained. Secondly, the cutoff frequency, obtained by this method, is k47GHz which is in good agreement with the calculated result of theory. And the current-voltage characteristics curve which takes account of the buffer layer effect has been obtained. Lastly it has been verified that parasitic current at the buffer layer can be analyzed using channel depth modulation.

Based on the test on a 1/2.5-scaled model of a two-bay and three-story inner frame composed of reinforced concrete beams and lattice steel reinforced concrete (SRC) irregular section columns under low cyclic reversed loading, the failure process and the features of the frame were observed. The subsequence of plastic hinges of the structure, the load-displacement hysteresis loops and the skeleton curve, load bearing capacity, inter-story drift ratio, ductility, energy dissipation and stiffness degradation were analyzed. The results show that the lattice SRC inner frame is a typical strong column-weak beam structure. The hysteresis loops are spindle-shaped, and the stiffness degradation is insignificant. The elastic-plastic inter-story deformation capacity is high. Compared with the reinforced concrete frame with irregular section columns, the ductility and energy dissipation of the structure are better. The conclusions can be referred to for seismic design of this new kind of structure.

In recent years steel-concrete composite shear walls have been widely used in enormous high-rise buildings. Due to high strength and ductility, enhanced stiffness, stable cycle characteristics and large energy absorption, such walls can be adopted in the auxiliary building; surrounding the reactor containment structure of nuclear power plants to resist lateral forces induced by heavy winds and severe earthquakes. This paper demonstrates a set of nonlinear numerical studies on I-shaped composite steel-concrete shear walls of the nuclear power plants subjected to reverse cyclic loading. A three-dimensional finite element model is developed using ABAQUS by emphasizing on constitutive material modeling and element type to represent the real physical behavior of complex shear wall structures. The analysis escalates with parametric variation in steel thickness sandwiching the stipulated amount of concrete panels. Modeling details of structural components, contact conditions between steel and concrete, associated boundary conditions and constitutive relationships for the cyclic loading are explained. Later, the load versus displacement curves, peak load and ultimate strength values, hysteretic characteristics and deflection profiles are verified with experimental data. The convergence of the numerical outcomes has been discussed to conclude the remarks.

This study investigates the behavior of group of tapered and cylindrical piles. The bearing capacities of groups of tapered and cylindrical piles are computed and compared. Modeling of group of piles in this study is conducted in sand using three-dimensional finite element software. For this purpose, total bearing capacity of each group is firstly calculated using the load-displacement curve under specific load and common techniques. Then, the model of group of piles is reloaded under this calculated capacity to find group settlements, stress states on the lateral surfaces of group block, efficiency of group and etc. In order to calculate the efficiency of each group, single tapered and cylindrical piles are modeled separately. Comparison for both tapered and cylindrical group of piles with same volume is conducted and a relation to predict tapered pile group efficiency is developed. A parametric study is also performed by changing parameters such as tapered angle, angle of internal friction of sand, dilatancy angle of soil and coefficient of lateral earth pressure to find their influences on single pile and pile group behavior.

In the present study, a CPT-based p-y analysis method was proposed for offshore mono-piles embedded in sands. Static and cyclic loading conditions were both taken into account for the proposed method. The continuous soil profiling capability of CPT was an important consideration for the proposed method, where detailed soil profile condition with depth can be readily incorporated into the analysis. The hyperbolic function was adopted to describe the non-linear p-y curves. For the proposed hyperbolic p-y relationship, the ultimate lateral soil resistance $p_u$ was given as a function of the cone resistance, which is directly introduced into the analysis as an input data. For cyclic loading condition, two different cyclic modification factors were considered and compared. Case examples were selected to check the validity of the proposed CPT-based method. Calculated lateral displacements and bending moments from the proposed method were in good agreement with measured results for lateral displacement and bending moment profiles. It was observed the accuracy of calculated results for the conventional approach was largely dependent on the selection of friction angle that is to be adopted into the analysis.
