The electrical stress has a major effect on the long-term reliability of the thyristor. Therefore, it is needed to analyze the relationship between reliability and stress. In this paper, we investigate the device failure mechanism which induced by the stress. And also investigate the effect of the thermal stress on the device failure and relationship between electrical and thermal stress. Two-dimensional process simulator ATHENA and device simulator ATLAS are used to analyze the failure mechanism of the device.

본 연구에서는 half-life가 긴 DHEAS를 스트레스 관련 호르몬으로 보고 다음과 같은 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 1) 매일 30분씩 3주간 장기 고온스트레스 부과 후 4일간의 휴식을 준 생쥐에서의 DHEAS 변화를 관찰하여 이를 cortisol과 비교하였다. 그 결과 cortisol의 경우 장기 고온스트레스 부과 후 즉시 혈액을 채취한 그룹(LW)과 4일간의 휴식 후 혈액을 채취한 그룹(LR) 모두 대조군(C)에 비해 유의적 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 이에 반해 DHEAS는 장기 고온스트레스 부과 후 즉시 혈액을 채취한 그룹(LW)에서 대조군에 비해 유의적인 감소(p<0.05)를 보였으며, 4일간의 휴식(LR)을 준 후에도 여전히 유의적인 차이를 유지하였다(p<0.05). 실험 2) 고온스트레스를 매일 30분씩 1주간, 2주간, 3주간 부과한 그룹에서의 휴식 기간별 혈청 DHEAS농도 차이를 측정하였다. 그 결과 스트레스 기간이 길어질수록 혈청 DHEAS농도가 감소되는 경향을 나타내었으며, 10일간의 휴식을 주었음에도 2주간, 3주간 부과한 그룹에서 여전히 대조군에 비해 낮은 농도를 유지하였다(p<0.05). 이러한 결과로 보아 cortisol을 이용한 기존방식은 스트레스가 사라진 후의 상태를 파악하는데 어려움이 있었던데 반해, DHEAS는 변화된 상태를 지속적으로 유지함으로써 스트레스가 사라진 후의 상태를 파악하는데 적합한 호르몬으로 판단된다.

In case of aged porcelain, the failure in basic performance tests happened in cool-heat tests. Based on this characteristic, we studied the method predicting failure phenomena through more severe accelerated cool-heat ageing and accelerating thermal mechanical performance tests. Test results indicated that the thermal stress by temperature gradient was more severe parameter than thermal stress by quenching cycles within a category of standard or accelerating methods. And there is no the deterioration of statistic strength, but the deterioration of strength according to accelerating tests is serious.

To investigate the effect of long-term thermal aging on the microstructural and mechanical characteristics of weldment made of nickel base alloy and its weld metal, an accelerated heat treatment was applied to simulate the process of long-term thermal aging in the operating condition of nuclear power plant. A representative nickel-based weldment with Alloy 600 and Alloy 182 was fabricated and heat-treated at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1,713 h and 3,427 h to simulate the thermal aging for the period equivalent to 15 and 30 years in operating pressurized water reactors, respectively. The microstructural and mechanical characteristics were analyzed by using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and Vickers microhardness measurement. Changes were observed in precipitation behavior and microhardness of each specimen, and these changes were mainly attributed to the change in precipitated morphology and residual stress across the weld during the thermal aging process.

Pd alloy hydrogen membranes for hydrogen purification and separation need thermal stability at high temperature for commercial applications. Intermetallic diffusion between the Pd alloy film and the porous metal support gives rise to serious problems in long-term stability of Pd alloy membranes. Ceramic barriers are widely used to prevent the intermetallic diffusion from the porous metal support. However, these layers result in poor adhesion at the interface between film and barrier because of the fundamentally poor chemical affinity and a large thermal stress. In this study, we developed Pd alloy membranes having a dense microstructure and saturated composition on modified metal supports by advanced DC magnetron sputtering and heat treatment for enhanced thermal stability. Experimental results showed that Pd-Cu and Pd-Ag alloy membranes had considerably enhanced long-term stability owing to stable, dense alloy film microstructure and saturated composition, effective diffusion barrier, and good adhesive interface layer.

In order to investigate the mechanism of adaptation to long-term heat stress, six female buffalo calves of about 7 to 8 months age, were exposed to the cool-comfort environment (THI 65) for 21 days to obtain normal values of blood acid-base. An adaptive response of acid-base regulation was determined to long term (21 days) exposure of buffalo calves to hot-dry (THI 80) and hot-humid (THI 84) conditions. Higher rectal temperature and respiratory rate was recorded under hot-humid exposure compared to hot-dry. Significant reduction in the rectal temperature and respiratory rate on day 21 of hot-dry exposure indicated early thermal adaptation compared to hot-humid. Decreasing rectal temperature and respiratory rate from day 1 to 21 was associated with concurrent decrease in blood pH and pCO2. Increased plasma chloride concentration with low base excess in blood and in extracellular fluid suggested compensatory response to respiratory alkalosis. Reduced fractional excretion of sodium with increased fractional excretion of potassium and urine flow rate indicated renal adaptive response to heat stress.

In this paper, the thermal stress analysis of spent nuclear fuel disposal canister in a deep repository at 500m underground is done for the underground pressure variation. Since the nuclear fuel disposal usually emits much heat and radiation, its careful treatment is required. And so a long term safe repository at a deep bedrock is used. Under this situation, the canister experiences some mechanical external loads such as hydrostatic pressure of underground water, swelling pressure of bentonite buffer, and the thermal load due to the heat generation of spent nuclear fuel in the basket etc.. Hence, the canister should be designed to designed to withstand these loads. In this paper, the thermal stress analysis is done using the finite element analysis code, NISA.

The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have achieved so far the highest validated efficiency over 11%. However, the cells with the best performance utilize volatile solvent as a electrolyte, which can cause some practical limitations for the long-term operation. This is one of the most substantial problems to be resolved for the commercialization of DSSCs. In order to improve the long-term stability, many research groups have reported new electrolyte system, to replace the liquid type electrolyte by non-volatile ones. In this work, we studied long-term stability of the DSSCs with various types of electrolytes such as (PVDF HFP) based polymer, eutectic melts of ionic liquids, and liquid based solvent. The cells with various electrolytes have been exposed to the condition under thermal stress and illumination over 1000 hours. We will report the change of photovoltaic properties with time and investigate the degradation mechanism with the impedance spectroscopic analysis.

As silica based optical fibers and preforms are processed at a high temperature, residual stresses are bulit in the strucure when cooled down to the room temperature. The magnitude of the residual stress depends on the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients between core and cladding glass as well as on the temperature difference. Residual stress distribution determines the intrinsic strength and could affect the long term reliability of optical fibers. And furthermore, stress can introduces anisotropy into optical fibers by photoelastic effects. The analysis of thermal stress has been intensively studied for multimode fibers$^{(1)}$ and the authors and co-wokers recently reported the stress distribution in a depressed inner cladding structure$^{(2)}$ . The compositions of the glass in the previous studies, however, have been restricted to conventional glass formers, such as GeO2, B2O3, P2O5, Fluorine. (omitted)

본 연구에서는 MgO를 첨가하여 자기팽창을 유도하는 화학적 프리스트레싱 기법(chemically prestressing method)으로 균열을 제어하는 방법을 다루고자 한다. 수화열에 의한 온도변형 및 수축과 같은 콘크리트의 필연적인 체적변화는 시공 중 균열을 발생시키고, 이는 장기적인 콘크리트의 내구성 및 사용성을 저하시키는 주요 요인으로 작용한다. 시공 중 발생하는 균열을 제어하기 위하여 본 연구는 MgO 콘크리트의 팽창 특성을 모델링하고 콘크리트의 단면 내 온도분포로부터 온도응력 및 자기팽창 응력을 평가하는 3차원 유한요소해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 해석프로그램은 온도의존적 자기팽창량과 팽창응력을 검증하였고, 예제 해석을 통하여 MgO 팽창 여부에 따른 잔류응력(residual stress)의 변화 양상을 비교, 분석하였다. 저온에서 소성한 MgO를 혼입하여 제조한 장기팽창성 콘크리트는 온도의존적 특성을 보이고 수년에 걸쳐 발생하는 경향을 보이므로, 장기적으로 높은 온도가 유지되는 매스콘크리트 구조물의 온도균열을 제어하는데 가장 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
