  • This study proposes a mix design method for geopolymer concrete (GPC) using low calcium fly ash and alccofine, with the focus on achieving the required compressive strength and workability at heat and ambient curing. Key factors identified and nine mixes with varied fly ash content (350, 375 and $400kg/m^3$) and different molarity (8, 12 and 16M) of NaOH solutions were prepared. The cubes prepared were cured at different temperatures ($27^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}C$) and tested for its compressive strength after 3, 7 and 28 days of curing. Fly ash content has been considered as the direct measure of workability and strength. The suggested mix design approach has been verified with the help of the example and targets well the requirements of fresh and hardened concrete.

  • The stable and safe operation of a boiler system is essential for ensuring stability of the chemical processes. A dynamic simulation of a boiler drum was performed to identify the dynamics of the boiler drum. The obtained results represented that the variation of process variables disturb boiler system. So, disturbance rejection with tracking and constraints handing was necessary for stable operation of boiler drum. Among many controller, GPC has been known to show good performance in set point tracking than disturbance. In order to improve disturbance rejection performance measurable disturbance term was Introduced in basic GPC model. The controller which had tracking and disturbance rejection was designed for Improving the stable operation of a boiler system.

  • This paper proposes an adaptive generalized predictive control with feedforward algorithm for steam generator level control in nuclear power plant. The proposed algorithm is shown that the parameters of N-step ahead predictors can be obtained using the parameters of one-step ahead predictor which is derived from plant model with feedforward. Using this property the proposed scheme is an adaptive algorithm which consists of GPC method and the recursive least squares algorithm for identifying the parameters of one-step ahead predictor. Also, computer simulations are performed to evaluate the performance of proposed algorithm using a mathematical model of PWR steam generator Simulation results show good performances for load variation. And the proposed algorithm shows better responses than PI controller does.

  • Cotton fabrics were treated with 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid(BTCA) to impart durable press performance, which is formaldehyde-free DP finishing reagent. The pore structures of BTCA treated cottons were compared using a reverse gel permeation chromatographic technique(reverse GPC). A series consisting 4 kinds of water soluble sugars was used to study the elution characteristics of columns prepared from cotton fibers. From these data, differences in pore size distribution in the control and BTCA treated cottons were distinguished. BTCA crosslinks cellulose molecules provided wrinkle resistance to the treated cotton fabrics through ester linkages. Although crosslinking of cotton with BTCA reduced accessible internal volume across the entire range of pore size, differences in line pores were larger than in small pores. BTCA treated cotton exhibited reductions over 40% in large pore sizes.

  • This paper proposes the generalized predictive control(GPC) method of chaotic systems using a self-recurrent wavelet neural network(SRWNN). The reposed SRWNN, a modified model of a wavelet neural network(WNN), has the attractive ability such as dynamic attractor, information storage for later use. Unlike a WNN, since the SRWNN has the mother wavelet layer which is composed of self-feedback neurons, mother wavelet nodes of the SRWNN can store the past information of the network. Thus the SRWNN can be used as a good tool for predicting the dynamic property of nonlinear dynamic systems. In our method, the gradient-descent(GD) method is used to train the SRWNN structure. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the SRWNN based GPC is demonstrated with applications to a chaotic system.

  • The present study deals with the development of metakaolin-based geopolymer concrete (GPC) and thereafter studying the effects of adding ultra-fine slag on its mechanical and permeability characteristics. The mechanical characteristics including compressive, split tensile, flexural strengths and elastic modulus were studied. In addition, permeability characteristics including water absorption, porosity, sorptivity and chloride permeability were studied up to 90 days. The results showed the effective utilization of metakaolin for the development of elevated temperature cured geopolymer concrete having high 3-day compressive strength of 42.6 MPa. The addition of ultra-fine slag up to 15%, as partial replacement of metakaolin resulted in an increase in strength characteristics. Similar improvement in durability properties was also observed with the inclusion of ultra-fine slag up to 15%. Beyond this optimum content of 15%, further increase in ultra-fine slag content affected the mechanical as well as permeability parameters in a negative way. In addition, the relationship between various properties of GPC was also derived.

  • Collagen, which accounts for one-third of human protein, is reduced due to human aging, and much attention is focused on making collagen into food to prevent such aging. Gel permeation chromatography with Reflective Index (RI) detection (GPC/RI) was chosen as the most suitable instrument to confirm molecular weight distribution, and we explored the use of this technique for analysis of collagen peptide molecular sizes and distributions. Data reliability was verified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization coupled to time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometric analysis. The data were considered meaningful for comparative analysis of molecular weight distribution patterns.

  • Panel level packaging (PLP) 공정은 차세대 반도체 패키징 기술로써 wafer level packaging 대비 net die 면적이 넓어 생산 단가 절감에 유리하다. PLP 공정에 적용되는 구리 재배선 층 (RDL, redistribution layer)은 두께 불균일도에 의해 전기 저항의 유동이 민감하게 변화하기 때문에 RDL의 두께를 균일하게 형성하는 것은 신뢰성 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 구리 RDL은 주로 도금 공정을 통해 형성되며, 균일한 도금막 형성을 위해 도금조에 평탄제를 첨가하여 도금 속도를 균일하게 한다. 도금막에 대한 흡착은 주로 평탄제의 imine 작용기에 포함된 질소 원자가 관여하며, imine 작용기의 4차화에 의한 평탄제의 흡착 정도를 제어하여 평탄제 성능을 개선할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 도금 평탄제에 포함된 imine 작용기의 질소 원자를 4차화하여 구리 RDL의 도금 두께 불균일도를 제어하고자 하였다. 유기첨가제와 4차화 반응을 위해 알킬화제로써 dimethyl sulfate의 비율을 조절하여 각각 0, 50, 100 %로 4차화 반응을 진행하였다. 평탄제의 4차화 여부를 확인하기 위해 gel permeation chromatography (GPC) 분석을 실시하였다. 도금은 20 ~ 200 um의 다양한 배선 폭을 갖는 구리 RDL 미세패턴에서 진행하였으며, 4차화 평탄제를 첨가하여 광학 현미경과 공초점 레이저 현미경을 통해 도금막 표면과 두께에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. GPC 분석을 통해 4차화 반응 후 알킬화제에 의해 나타나는 GPC peak이 감소한 것을 확인하였다. 광학 현미경 및 공초점 레이저 현미경 분석 결과, 4차화된 질소 원자가 존재하지 않는 평탄제의 경우, 도금 시 도금막의 두께가 불균일하였으며 단면 분석 시 dome 형태가 관찰되었다. 또한 100 % 4차화를 실시한 평탄제를 첨가하여 도금 한 경우 마찬가지로 두께가 불균일한 dish 형태의 도금막이 형성되었다. 반면, 50 % 4차화를 적용한 평탄제를 첨가한 경우, 도금막 단면의 형태는 평평한 모습을 보였으며 매우 양호한 균일도를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이로 인해 imine 작용기를 포함한 평탄제의 4차화 반응을 통해 구리 RDL의 단면 형상 및 불균일도가 제어되는 것을 확인하였으며, 4차화된 imine 작용기의 비율을 조절하여 높은 균일도를 갖는 구리 RDL 도금이 가능한 것으로 판단되었다.

  • The isolation, purification and characterization of a carotenoprotein from the carapace of Pnaeus orientalis were investigated. The carotenoprotein was purple with broad λmax between 480, 409, 318 and 280 nm. Apparent structures were estimated by using X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscope, respectively. The molecular weight of the carotenoprotein complex had been determined by GPC and PAGE. The heavier complex, designated the $\alpha$-form (M.W = 170 KDa), was dissociated to a major subunit, $\beta$-form (M.W = 42 KDa). SDS-PAGE of $\alpha$-form showed apparently oligomeric pattern, and also $\beta$-form gave two polypeptides corresponding to 22 KDa and 19 KDa, respectively. The amino acid of the two proteins $({\alpha}-and\;{\beta})$-form, lipid and free fatty acid compositions were described. The prosthetic groups of the carotenoprotein were confirmed by TLC, IR, $^1H$-NMR, MS and various organic reactions as astaxanthin, astaxanthin monoester and astaxnathin diester.

  • Bis(phenylethynyl)dimethylsilane is branched by the hydrosilation of the phenylethynyl group with dichloromethylsilane, and then the resulting chlorosilane is reacted with lithium phenylacetylide to give the $1^{st}$ generation. The same hydrosilation and alkynylation are repeated to obtain the $7^{th}$ generation. In addition peripheral Si-Cl moiety of the seven kind generation dendrimers are reacted with alcoholic moiety of 9-hydroxymethylanthracene and 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole group in the presence of TMEDA. Then three kinds of carbosilane dendrimers are prepared from the $1^{st}$ to the $7^{th}$ generations, the $7^{th}$ generation of each dendrimer has 256 phenylethynyl, 256 9-anthracenylmethoxy, or 128 2-(2-phenoxy)benzoxazole groups. Each synthesized dendrimer is unequivocally characterized by $^1H\;and\;^{13}C\;NMR$, elemental analysis, MALDI-MS, GPC, and PL (photoluminescence). Characteristically PDI (Polydisperse Index) values of the dendrimers’ peak in GPC are in the range of $1.00{\sim}1.07$, which indicates that each generation of carbosilane is in unified distribution. PL spectra of phenylethynyl and 9- anthracenemethoxy group substituted dendrimers show no significant change with increasing the generation from the $1^{st}$ to the $7^{th}$. However, the PL spectra of 2-(2-phenoxy)benzoxazole group substituted dendrimers show a blue-shift trend with increasing the generation from the $1^{st}$ to the $7^{th}$.
