We apply the Rayleigh Ritz method to analyze multi-layered plates with residual stresses. The method is very simple, straight forward, and easily programmable, but it should be applied to structure s only in simple shapes. We derive coupled variational equations based on the principle of virtual displacement, and investigate what kind of basis functions is desirable for the analysis of rectangular plates with various boundary conditions. We demonstrate the effectiveness and usefulness of the method through several examples. The analysis results obtained with the method are in good agreement with those available in literature. A multi-layered MEMS plate example shows that the coupling effect should not be ignored and that residual stresses do influence the stiffness of the structure very much.

The oxidation behavior of commercial pure titanium is investigated in the temperature range of $727^{\circ}C{\sim}950^{\circ}C$ in mixed gases. The weight change is measured by TGA during oxidation in mixed gases. The oxidation behavior indicated by weight gain or the growth of oxide layer is based on the linear rate law at high temperatures. The structure of the oxide scale formed during oxidation is analysed by optical microscopy, electron probe microanalyzer, scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffraction. Oxide scales have a $TiO_2$ structure, and are constituted with multi-layered or two layered porous external one and a dense internal one. Ti-O solid solution region is formed at the interface of metal and scale layer. The formation of oxide scale is influenced by the oxidation temperature, time, crystal structure and the condition of atmosphere.

Layered $Li_{1.2}(Fe_{0.16}Mn_{0.32}Ni_{0.32})O_2$ was prepared by the mixed hydroxide method at various temperatures. Xray diffraction (XRD) pattern shows that this material has a ${\alpha}-NaFeO_2$ layered structure with $R{\bar{3}}m$ space group and that cation mixing is reduced with increasing synthesis temperature. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals that nano-sized $Li_{1.2}(Fe_{0.16}Mn_{0.32}Ni_{0.32})O_2$ powder has uniform particle size distribution. X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) analysis is used to study the local electronic structure changes around the Mn, Fe, and Ni atoms in this material. The sample prepared at $700^{\circ}C$ delivers the highest discharge capacity of 207 $mAhg^{-1}$ between 2-4.5 V at 0.1 $mAcm^{-2}$ with good capacity retention of 80% after 20 cycles.

In S. Korea, recently, building fire accidents of residential accommodations or recreational facilities have taken place more frequently than before. Among various building constructions, Multi-layered structure, such as office-residential complex, are mostly made in S. korea. $O_2$, $CO_2$, CO, $NO_x$, $SO_x$, and HCl, these gases has toxic hazard and harmful for human body. And it is predicted that different concentration of released gases from diesel pool fire with upper and lower layer. Therefore, this study reports the fire characteristics of Multi-layered structure by analyzing the fire behavior and concentration of combustion gases of a experimental compartment via real scale fire experiment, in order to predict risks and secure safety for similar fire accidents.

We followed and extended the algorithm originally made by Das (1995) to calculate the electric potential and field induced by electric current in arbitrary anisotropic layered structure. We confirmed all the theoretical contents and coded the corresponding program to acquire the electric potential and field. Further we extended to forward estimation of apparent resistivity to be attained by electrical resistivity survey on anisotropic layered structure with differing the electrode spacing and azimuth of anisotropy. The effects of anisotropy were reviewed by considering some examples.

In this study, the layered structures of immiscible Fe and Cu metals were employed to investigate the interface evolution through solid-state mixing. The pure Fe and Cu powders were cold-consolidated by high-pressure torsion (HPT) to fabricate a layered Cu-Fe-Cu structure. The microstructural evolutions and flow of immiscible Fe and Cu metals were investigated following different iterations of HPT processing. The results indicate that the HPT-processed sample following four iterations showed a sharp chemical boundary between the Fe and Cu layers. In addition, the Cu powders exhibited perfect consolidation through HPT processing. However, the Fe layer contained many microcracks. After 20 iterations of HPT, the shear strain generated by HPT produced interface instability, which caused the initial layered structure to disappear.

This study analyzed the influence of the environmental factor of each vegetation type in an urban, mountainous park (Tangeumdae Park in Chungju) on air ion. The measuring points were divided according to the tree species, diameter at breast height, crown density, and layered structure, and the meteorological factors and the air ion were measured. The results of the measurement showed the average generation of positive ions of $610.90{\pm}50.27ea/cm^3$, the average generation of negative ions of $723.58{\pm}64.25ea/cm^3$, and the air ion index of $1.19{\pm}0.10$. The results of the analysis, according to the vegetation type, are as follows. Firstly, the air ion varied according to the species, the chest diameter at breast height, and the layered structure, and was analyzed to be statistically significant. Secondly, the air ion and the vegetation type showed a positive correlation with the species, diameter at breast height, crown density, and layered structure. The cation showed a negative correlation with the species, diameter at breast height, and the crown density, and the anion showed a positive correlation with the species, the diameter at breast height, crown density, and layered structure. Thirdly, the ion index in ridges had a higher correlation with the vegetation type than the meteorological factors. In detail, the correlation was higher in the species > layered structure > crown density > diameter at breast height. This study had the limitation of evaluating air ions in the ridge. Therefore, future studies on air ion should consider both terrain structure and vegetation type and analyze the seasonal changes and comparison.

This paper presents 3D infinite elements for the elastodynamic problem with multi-layered half-space. Five different types of infinite elements are formulated by using approximate expressions of multiple wave components for the wave function in multi-layered soil media. They are horizontal, horizontal-corner, vortical, vertical-corner and vertical-horizontal-comer infinite elements. The elements can effectively be used for simulating wane radiation problems with multiple wave components. Numerical example analyses are presented for rigid disk, square footings and embedded footing on homogeneous and layered half-space. The numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed infinite elements.

This paper presents results for impedance (and compliance) functions and input motions of foundations in a layered half-space computed on the basis of a procedure that combines a consistent transmitting boundary with continued-fraction absorbing boundary conditions which are accurate and effective in modeling wave propagation in various unbounded domains. The effects of obliquely incident seismic waves in a layered half-space are taken into account in the formulation of the transmitting boundary. Using the numerical model, impedance (and compliance) functions and input motions of rigid circular foundations on the surface of or embedded in a homogeneous half-space are computed and compared with available published results for verification of the procedure. Extrapolation methods are proposed to improve the performance in the very-low-frequency range and for the static condition. It is concluded from the applications that accurate analysis of foundation dynamics and soil-structure interaction in a layered half-space can be carried out using the enhanced consistent transmitting boundary and the proposed extrapolations.

In the fabrication of magnetic adsorbent by incorporating iron species on base materials with layered structure, there can be a potential loss of adsorption capacity from the penetration of dissolved iron species into the structure. This work newly synthesized a magnetic adsorbent by incorporating nano magnetite and glucose into layered metal sulfide via hydrothermal treatment, and tested the removal efficiencies of cesium ions (Cs⁺) by the adsorbents fabricated under different conditions (final temperature and glucose mass ratio). As a result, the optimal fabrication condition was found to be mass ratio of 1 (layered metal sulfide): 0.1 (nano magnetite): 0.4 (glucose) and final temperature of 160℃. As-prepared adsorbent possessed good adsorption ability of Cs⁺ (54.8 mg/g) without a significant loss of adsorption capacity from attaching glucose and nano magnetite onto the surface.
