Autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete is affected high temperature history. So to evaluate autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete accurately, thermal expansion in it should be removed. In this study, compensated autogenous shrinkage was calculated after gathering thermal expansion coefficient at early age experimentally. As a result of the study. Autogenous shrinkage of mass specimen (300 ${\times}$ 300 ${\times}$ 300mm) was remarkably higher than it of standard specimen (100 ${\times}$ 100 ${\times}$ 400mm). So it was found that compensation on thermal expansion should in evaluating autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete. And this study shows results on opc and similar own contraction, if used retarder.

Recently, there are quite a lot of attention is drown on the researches related to of Miller method applied high expansion cycle. For this study, high expansion cycles are formed and analyzed with the base view point of thermodynamics, and the features of each factors are also investigated. As a result of analysis, the expansion-compression ratio is expected with a decrease of effective compression ratio as intake valve closing time retarded, however, the decrease of mean effective pressure and its output is accompanied with the counterflow of intake air. Accordingly, as the consequence of such failure, it is expected that an alternative is needed for the realization of high expansion cycles, and the improvement over thermal efficiency. To materialize such cycle, the control system to delay the closing time of intake valve was designed and VVT, the 3 S/B low speed diesel engine, is applied to evaluate the efficiency. The result of the trial shows that there was no significant errors.

Background: While there are many studies estimating the effects of private health insurance on various types of health care utilization, few have examined how such effects change in conjunction with important policy reforms in national health insurance (NHI). This study examined how the effect of private health insurance (supplemental and fixed cash benefit) on high-cost outpatient imaging test utilization changed following the expansion of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) coverage in 2018, which is a key example of the NHI benefit expansion policy in recent years. Methods: Data from the 2017 and 2019 Korea Health Panel Survey, which contained information about healthcare utilization before and after the expansion of MRI coverage in 2018, were used. The incremental effect of private health insurance on high-cost outpatient imaging test utilization for each period were quantified and compared, with special attention given to the type of private health insurance. Results: While people with supplemental private health insurance were more likely to use high-cost outpatient imaging tests than those without, both before and after the expansion of MRI coverage, the incremental effect increased from 1.6% points in 2017 to 2.5% points in 2019. Conclusion: Benefit expansion in NHI does not necessarily reduce disparities in the use of health care between private health insurance subscribers and non-subscribers. The results of our study also suggest that the path through which private health insurance affects healthcare utilization may not be limited to the price mechanism alone but can be more complex.

To understand the high expansion effects by adopting intake closing time in the cases of compensating intake air-mass and effective compression ratio simultaneously, fundamental study was carried out by using RICEM realizing Atkinson cycle. Intake air-mass and effective compression ratio were compensated by increasing supercharged pressure and geometric compression ratio. The results showed that the increasing rates of expansion ratio and expansion-compression ratio were increased by compensating both a intake air-mass and effective compression ratio the same tendencies were obtained with the increases of compression ratio and cut off ratio It was also found that LIVC has more advantages in expansion ratio and effective work than those of EIVC under above conditions.

A safety valve is used for protecting the pressure vessel and facilities by discharging the operating fluid into the valve from the accident when the pressure is over the designated value. The fluid is sulfurous acid and nitric acid. etc. in the semi-conductor assembly line. Thus the valve elements material must be acid resistance. Teflon, which is used generally as inner parts of a valve, tends to easily sticks to sliding surface by thermal expansion under high temperature. Some studies are performed to change teflon to another material and shape to have a better fluidity under the condition. The analysis of the thermal expansion is conducted by commercial FEM software to improve the problems. Boundary conditions were temperature and load in this study. From the analysis, the thermal expansion of stainless steel is verified to be lower than that of teflon under high temperature. Thus coupled teflon/stainless steel-made valve is applied to assembly line without danger due to thermal expansion.

One of the methods to increase the efficiency of an engine is to expand pressures obtained from combustions equal to the pressure of atmosphere as much as possible and then convert thermal energy into mechanical energy also as much as possible. In this research, the Diesel cycle was thermodynamically interpreted to evaluate the possibility of high efficiency by converting Diesel engines to the Atkinson cycle, and general cycle features were analyzed after comparing these two cycles. In the case of fuel air the Diesel-Atkinson cycle considering intake and exhaust similar to real cycles, the value of thermal efficiency and average effective pressure increased, though their values were smaller than those of standard air amount cycle, when expansion compression ratio increased. When normal Diesel engines of which compression stroke and expansion stroke are all the same, was converted to the Atkinson cycle by changing the time of intake value close, combustion pressure reduced due to reduced expansion compression ratio and intake air amount due to decreased effective cycle volume.

This study established the standard recommended values and expansion fracture threshold values for the content of steel slag in controlled low-strength materials (CLSM) to ensure the appropriate use of steel slag aggregates and the prevention of abnormal expansion. The steel slags used in this study included basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag and desulfurization slag (DS), which replaced 5-50% of natural river sand by weight in cement mixtures. The steel slag mortars were tested by high-temperature ($100^{\circ}C$) curing for 96 h and autoclave expansion. The results showed that the effects of the steel slag content varied based on the free lime (f-CaO) content. No more than 30% of the natural river sand should be replaced with steel slag to avoid fracture failure. The expansion fracture threshold value was 0.10%, above which there was a risk of potential failure. Based on the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis, the high-temperature catalysis resulted in the immediate extrusion of peripheral hydration products from the calcium hydroxide crystals, leading to a local stress concentration and, eventually, deformation and cracking.

Recently CRT is getting large-sized, Flatness and High Fine Pitched in the meantime the raw material for shadow mask is in rapid progress of thinness, Low Thermal Expansion and high strength.Until now we have used AK(Aluminum Killed) & Invar(Fe-Ni alloy) materials for main raw material of shadow mask component. However recently Nb and Co addition and Nb+Co addition, which has advantage of Low Thermal Expansion and High Strength. has been developed as well as applying in mass production as CRT's trend has become more flat and fine pitch. Among of them, Co addition has been mass production as forming type (Flat CRT) with the beneficial effect of low thermal expansion & high strength for the first time. Since then Nb+Co addition has been used in mass production by the request of much higher strength of shadow mask component. In case of Nb addition, It's thermal expansion coefficient is a little lower than normal Invar and a little higher than Co addition, meanwhile Its Mechanical property is almost similar to Co Addition. The used samples of this experiment are 36%Ni + Fe, 32%Ni + 5%Co + Fe, 32%Ni + 5%Co + 0.3%Nb + Fe, 32%Ni + 0.3%Nb + Fe with heat treatment temperature of 600$^{\circ}C$, 650$^{\circ}C$, 700$^{\circ}C$, 750$^{\circ}C$, 800$^{\circ}C$, 850$^{\circ}C$, 900$^{\circ}C$ respectively under the condition of 15min holding time. After heat treatment, we have observed the change of mechanical property with addition of small elements through mechanical property investigation and metal structure observation as well as transition of thermal expansion coefficient by measuring of thermal expansion coefficient at 850$^{\circ}C$. In conclusion, 5%Co addition indicates that its thermal expansion coefficient is very similar under the condition of at 850$^{\circ}C$ for 15min 's heat treatment. From the experimental result it is suggested that Co addition is mostly suitable for Doming property and Nb addition is mostly suitable for Drop property.

In ultra-high-strength concrete, chemical shrinkage is larger than drying shrinkage due to using a large amount of cement and admixtures, and this is a factor deteriorating the quality of structures. Thus, we need a new technology for minimizing the shrinkage strain of ultra-high-strength concrete. So, this study have prepared super-high-strength concrete with specified mixing design strength of over 100MPa and have evaluated a method of reducing chemical shrinkage by using expander and shrinkage-reducing agent. According to the results of this study, with regard to the change in length by chemical shrinkage, an expansion effect was observed until the age of seven days. The expansion effect was higher than previous research that used only expander or shrinkage reducing agent. In addition, ultra-high-strength concrete showed a shrinkage rate that slowed down with time, and the effect of the addition of expander material on compressive strength was insignificant. That is shown that required more database to be accumulated through experimental research for the shrinkage strain of members.
