Increase of the requirements on quality of welded structures necessitates the improvement of known inspection methods and the introduction of progressive new techniques. Non-destructive methods are the most advanced, but there are considerable difficulties in using the methods of radiography with electromagnetic rays and ultrasonic testing in the inspection of dissimilar metal friction welds, because their physical and mechanical properties are changed very rapidly at the interface. The values of simple mechanical test for dissimilar metal friction welds have always been dubious, as the strength of the bond is often greater than that of the softer materials being jointed. Thus, in this paper some conventional mechanical testing methods are examined in an attempt to determine a technique for dissimilar metal friction welds, which will give a reliable quantitative indication of the weld quality. From the considered static and dynamic testing methods the impact bending test on unnotched and notched specimens are the most sensitive to find out the small joining defects in the interface.

The rate of coating consolidation influences the operation of several coating methods and the final quality of the coating layer. The rate of coating consolidation is characterized with a dynamic gloss meter at short times for a thin coating layer applied to the base sheet of interest. During the coating consolidation process, the laser gloss meter response curve exhibits two critical turning points that indicate the two coating immobilization points defined by the traditional methods. Five base sheets with several different coating suspensions are characterized. A model is proposed to estimate the rate of consolidation based on physical properties of the coating suspension, the base paper, and the liquid phase of the coating. The paper properties, especially the contact angle, are found to be an important factor in determining rate of consolidation. The model predicts the correct trends for the different coating suspensions and base sheets. The test method, along the model, can be used to determine the filtercake resistance of the coating layer for a thin and rapidly formed filtercake.

Rheological Properties of polypropylenes having different molecular structures (linear polypropylene (PPL) and branched one (PPB)) were studied. Both the extensional flow and oscillatory shear flow properties were checked. Especially, the melt strength of polypropylenes having various shear history were investigated by using in-house-made Rheometer (called SMER). Compared to linear polypropylene, the branched polypropylene shows enhanced melt strength during extensional flow due to the retarded relaxation of molecules. When the slope of melt tension was plotted against take up speed of melt strand, the characteristic peak was observed in case of branched polypropylene, while the linear polypropylene shows only monotonously decreasing pattern. This entanglement was partially disrupted by physical forces such as shear during melt extrusion. However, the melt strength of PPB after multiple extrusion is still higher than PPL, implying the loss of elasticity during multiple extrusion is not so comprehensive. On dynamic experiments, PPB shows typical shear thinning behavior and the tangent delta of PPB is lower than PPL, reflecting high elasticity of PPB.

Recycl ing of PP/EPR based bumper coated with polyester urethane paint has been per formed by chemical decoating method. Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESP11 has been applied to characterize the deformation of polyolef in based bumper. In additon, physical properties and processability of recycled materials have been investigated by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, impact test and melt flower index measurement. The results show that the deformation ratio of recycled material is higher than that of virgin one. The morphological change of EPR, degree of distribution and dispersion during the recycling process seem to be the most important factor for the deformation and the mechanical properties of recycled materials. The experimental results obtained show that ESPI is very powerful technique to study the thermal mechanical property of polyolefin bumper system.

Polymeric composite structures used in ground transportation applications such as the carbody of tilting train may be exposed to a ground environmental conditions during long-term missions. In this study, the degradation of mechanical and physical properties of graphite/epoxy composite and glass fabric/phenol composite under ground environmental conditions was investigated. Accelerated environmental conditions of ultraviolet radiation, temperature, and moisture were considered. Several types of specimens were used to investigate the effects of environmental conditions on mechanical properties of the composites. Also, storage shear modulus, loss shear modulus, and tan 8 were measured as a function of exposure times through a dynamic mechanical analyzer. Finally, composite surfaces exposed to environmental conditions were examined using a scanning electron microscope.

We report untwisting chromospheric surges of AR 10930. Hinode Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) observed AR 10930 on the west limb continuously from 11:21 UT December 18 to 09:58 UT December 19, using the Ca II H broadband filter. During the observation, rise and fall motion accompanying rotation appeared recursively. There occurred a total of 14 surges at AR 10930 over 17 hours. The average duration was 45 minutes, and the average width, and length were 8 Mm, and 39 Mm, respectively. The dynamic properties including number of turns from the rise to the fall, the axial speed and acceleration are also analyzed. We speculate that the surges occurred by recursive reconnections between the twisted prominence and large untwisted flux tube.

The purposes of the present study are to produce a high thermal efficient of oil-based nanofluids which can be used as ultra-high voltage transformer oil, and to investigate their thermal and physical properties under static and dynamic conditions. Three kinds of nanofluids are prepared by dispersing $Al_2O_3$ or AlN nanoparticles in transformer oil. The thermal conductivities of the nanoparticles-oil mixtures increase with temperature, particle volume concentration and thermal conductivity of solid particle itself. It was quite important to eliminate $H_2O$ as byproducts of esterification and excess oleic acid which did not form stable chemical bonds with powder surface to get high dispersion stability.

The reinforcement of Inorganic filler silica treated with LBR-MDI In SBR vulcanizates were Investigated. The inorganic filler silica treated with MDI on unmodified surface and that of silica treated by MDI was retreated with LBR. The charateristics of vulcanization, physical properties, surface properites and dynamic properties were investigated after mixing those silica with SBR and unmodified silica with SBR. Rheometric studies of the vulcanization showed that S-series has fast scorch $time(t_{10})$ and an optimum cure $time(t_{90})$ in the SBR compounds. And it was turned out that SBR vulcanizates compounded with LBR treated silica was better than any other componnds in hardness, tensile strenght, 100 300% modula and elongation. We could confirm that urea bonding is formed from IR spectrum. We concluded that L-series shows the best reinforcement effect in SBR vulcanizates.

This study was performed to determine the kinetic friction coefficient bulk density, dynamic and static angle of repose, and terminal velocity of the chopped rice straw in the moisture range of 8~23%, which could be used for better design and operation of the processing machinery and handling facilities. Friction coefficient was determined from the horizontal traction force measured by pulling the container holding the mass of rice straw on the various plate materials. Bulk density was measured with an apparatus consisting of a filling funnel and a receiving vessel. Dynamic angle of repose was calculated from the photos of bulk samples piled by gravity flow on a circular platform. Static angle of repose was determined by measuring the side angle of the bulk material which was left in the cylindrical container after natural discharge of the bulk sample through a circular hole in the bottom plate. Kinetic friction coefficients of rice straw on the PVC, mild steel, stainless steel, and galvanized steel were in the range of 0.303~0.434, 0.222~0.439, 0.204~0.448, and 0.206~0.407, respectively. and indicated linear increase with moisture content. The effects of moisture change on the friction coefficients were in the order of PVC, mild steel, galvanized steel, and stainless steel. Bulk density, dynamic and static angle of repose, and terminal velocity were in the range of 56.8~60.3 kg/m$^3$, 41.4~45.9$^{\circ}$, 94.4~100.8$^{\circ}$, and 1.07~4.48 m/s, respectively, and were increased linearly with the moisture content.

A series of the studies on the applied physical properties of domestic species have been conducted last three years. Liriodendron tulipifera, Betula costata, Paulownia coreana were examined on sorption property, thermal property, electric property, acoustic property. Because the same apparatus and experimental procedures were used for all species, their results can be easily comparable. The experiments for sorption property were conducted with 80 mesh wood powder and resulted in their EMC's and sorption isotherms. The thermal conductivity and diffusivity, and electric resistance and volumetric electric resistivity were measured with a thermal-wire device and a high electric resistance meter. The differences of the thermal and electric properties between quarter-and flat-sawn specimens were observed, which was partially attributed to their anatomical differences. An acoustic measurement system was used to evaluate dynamic MOE and internal friction. This paper provides the useful fundamental data for designing a wood structure, correcting a portable resistance-type moisture meter, and acoustic properties of wood.
