In the previous paper (Hyun et al.,2002), we have investigated the shape of storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G") of complex fluids under large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) flow. As the strain amplitude increases, owever, the stress curve becomes distorted and some important information may be smothered during data processing. Thus we need to investigate the stress data more precisely and systematically. In this work, we have obtained the stress data using high performance ADC (analog digital converting) card, and investigated the nonlinear response of complex fluids, 4wt% xanthan gum (XG), 2 wt% PVA/ 1 wt% Borax, and 1 wt% hyaluronic acid (HA) solutions, using Fourier transformation (FT) rheology. Comparing the strain signals in time domain with FT parameters in frequency domain, we could illustrate the sensitivity and importance of FT rheology. Diverse and unique stress patterns were observed depending on the material system as well as flow environment. It was found that they are not the outcome of experimental deficiency like wall slip but characteristics of the material system. When nonlinear response of complex fluids is analyzed, the intensity and phase angle of higher harmonic contributions should be considered together, and the shape of the stress signal was found to be strongly dependent upon phase angle.ngle.

The effect of five commercial gums (carboxylmethylcellulose, CMC; guar gum, GG; hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, HPMC; locust bean gum, LBG; and xanthan gum) at a concentration of 0.25% on the rheological properties of rice flour (RF) dispersions was investigated in steady and dynamic shear. The steady shear rheological properties showed that RF gum mixture dispersions (5%, w/w) at $25^{\circ}C$ had high shear-thinning flow behavior (n=0.20-0.31) exhibiting a yield stress. Magnitudes of consistency index (K), apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,100}$), and Casson yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$) of RF-gum mixtures were much higher than those of RF dispersion with no added gum (control). Activation energy values (6.67-10.8 kJ/mole) of RF-gum mixtures within the temperature range of $25-70^{\circ}C$ were lower than that (11.9 kJ/mole) of the control. Dynamic rheological data of log (G', G") versus log frequency (${\omega}$) of RF-gum mixtures had positive slopes (0.15-0.37) with G' greater than G" over most of the frequency range (0.63-63 rad/sec), demonstrating a frequency dependency. Tan ${\delta}$ (G"/G') values of RF-gum mixtures, except for xanthan gum, were much higher than that of the control.

In order to obtain crosslinked poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) foams with a closed-cell structure, a commercial-grade PBS was first modified in the melt using two different branching agents to increase the melt viscosity. The rheological properties of the branched and crosslinked PBS were examined by varying the amount of the branching agents. The complex viscosity of the crosslinked PBS increased with increasing amount of the branching agent. However, it decreased with increasing frequency. When 2 phr of the branching agent was added to PBS, the storage modulus (G') was higher than the loss modulus (G") throughout the entire frequency range, showing that the addition of a branching agent increases the melt viscosity and elasticity of PBS effectively. Closed-cell PBS foams were prepared by mixing the chemical blowing agent with the crosslinked PBS. The effect of the foaming conditions such as temperature and time, and the amount of the crosslinking agent on the structure of the expanded PBS foams were also investigated.

To evaluate the performance of concrete load bearing walls in a structure under horizontal loads after being exposed to real fire, two steps were followed. In the first step, an experimental study was performed on the thermo-mechanical properties of concrete after heating to temperatures of 200-1000℃ with the purpose of determining the residual mechanical properties after cooling. The temperature was increased in line with natural fire curve in an electric furnace. The peak temperature was maintained for a period of 1.5 hour and then allowed to cool gradually in air at room temperature. All specimens were made from calcareous aggregate to be used for determining the residual properties: compressive strength, static and dynamic elasticity modulus by means of UPV test, including the mass loss. The concrete residual compressive strength and elastic modulus values were compared with those calculated from Eurocode and other analytical models from other studies, and were found to be satisfactory. In the second step, experimental analysis results were then implemented into structural numerical analysis to predict the post-fire load-bearing capacity response of the walls under vertical and horizontal loads. The parameters considered in this analysis were the effective height, the thickness of the wall, various support conditions and the residual strength of concrete. The results indicate that fire damage does not significantly affect the lateral capacity and stiffness of reinforced walls for temperature fires up to 400℃.

Dental Ni-Ti files must ensure stability and resistance to fatigue fracture. DLC and ta-C were coated to remove defects on the surface and ensure stability, and the surface characteristics were investigated. When coated with DLC, it was black, and in case of ta-C coating, it was blue-black. Scratches, which are defects caused by mechanical processing, were formed on the surface of the un-coated Ni-Ti file from the end of the file along the direction of processing, with the Pro-file appearing in the vertical direction and the K-file appearing in the file direction. Scratches were reduced on the coated surface, and the surface roughness was greatly reduced after coating compared to before coating. The un-coated Ni-Ti file had the lowest hardness, the DLC-coated file had the highest hardness, and ta-C showed relatively high hardness. The elastic modulus of the DLC coating film was high, and the ta-C elastic modulus was low. The adhesion of the DLC coating film tended to be higher than that of ta-C, and the wear loss amount of DLC coating of taC was lower. The corrosion potential of the ta-C coating increased significantly, and the corrosion current density decreased.

본 연구는 동적 전단진동(dynamic shear oscillation) 측정방법을 이용하여 농도가 젤라틴의 동적 레올로지 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 관찰하였다. $5^{\circ}C$에서의 젤라틴의 저장 탄성률(storage modulus, G#)과 손실 탄성률(loss modulus, G@)은 농도가 증가함에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 0.9%를 제외한 모든 농도(2.0-4.9%)에서 젤라틴의 G#은 G@보다 매우 높은 값을 나타냈으며, G#과 G@이 ${\omega}$ 의존성이 없는 true 겔과 같은 거동을 나타냈다. 젤라틴의 농도와 K#(G#에 대한 절편)와의 관계에서는 높은 결정계수$(R^2=0.99)$를 보여주면서 좋은 상관관계를 나타냈다. 여러 온도범위$(-5,\;0,\;5,\;10^{\circ}C)$에서 각 온도별로 측정된 K#값은 $-5^{\circ}C(59.5Pa)\;>\;0^{\circ}C(4.09Pa)\;>\;5^{\circ}C(1.41Pa)\;>\;10^{\circ}C(0.35Pa)$의 순으로 가장 낮은 온도에서 K#값이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 냉각과정에서 최종냉각온도인 $5^{\circ}C$에서 측정된 젤라틴의 최대 G#수치는 4.9%(2399Pa)>4.1%(1744Pa)>3.0%(1159Pa)>2.0%(519.3Pa)>0.9%(3.15Pa)의 순으로 높은 농도에서 높게 나타났다. Aging 10시간 동안 젤라틴 겔의 구조형성은 겉보기 first-order kinetics로부터 겉보기 구조형성 속도상수(K)를 결정함으로써 파악될 수 있다. 젤라틴의 농도가 증가함에 따라 K값은 증가하였으며, 농도와 K값과의 관계는 높은 결정계수$(R^2)$를 나타내면서 좋은 상관관계를 보여주었다(Fig. 7). 10시간 aging 후 G#은주파수$({\omega})$ 의존성이 없이 독립적인 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이들 젤라틴 겔은 aging하는 동안에 탄성이 점점 강해지고 10시간 후에는 가교결합의 밀도가 증가하여 강한 탄성을 가진 고무질 망상구조(rubber network)를 형성했음을 알 수 있다.

방진고무의 내한성을 향상시키기 위하여 NR 컴파운드에 유리전이온도가 상대적으로 낮은 BR을 섞거나 오일 함량을 늘리는 방법을 이용하여 새로운 컴파운드를 제작하였다. 저온환경에서 기계적물성 실험을 수행하여 NR/BR 조성비 및 오일 함량에 따른 영향을 조사하였다. BR 함량이 증가할수록 경도 및 모듈러스가 증가한 반면 인장강도 및 신율은 감소하였고, 오일 함량이 많을수록 경도, 모듈러스 및 인장강도는 감소하였으나 신율은 거의 변화가 없었다. NR/BR 블렌드 고무컴파운드는 NR과 BR의 유리 전이 온도인 $-50^{\circ}C$와 $-90^{\circ}C$에서 저장탄성계수의 급격한 전이와 손실계수인 tan ${\delta}$가 최대값을 보여 두 컴파운드간의 비상용성을 나타내었다.

This study investigated the influence of the viscoelastic property of slag when producing glass fiber, MFS631 with 60% of manganese slag, 30% of steel slag, and 10% of silica stone. To fabricate the MFS631 glass bulk, slag materials were placed in an alumina crucible, melted at $1,550^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, and then annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. It was found that glass is non-crystalline through X-ray diffraction analysis. MFS631 fiber was produced at speed in the range of 100~300 rpm at $1,150^{\circ}C$. The loss modulus (G") and storage modulus (G') of the produced glass fiber were evaluated at high temperatures. G' and G" of MFS631 were greater than $893^{\circ}C$, and the modulus value was 136,860 pa. This is similar to the results of a general E-glass fiber graph. Therefore, it was concluded that its spinnability is similar to that of E-glass fiber; therefore, it can be commercialized.

A lead-free bulk ceramic having a chemical formula $Ba_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}(Ti_{0.8}Zr_{0.1}Ce_{0.1})O_3$ (further termed as BCTZCO) is synthesized using mixed oxide route. The structural, dielectric, impedance, and conductivity properties, as well as the modulus of the synthesized sample are discussed in the present work. Analysis of X-ray diffraction data obtained at room temperature reveals the existence of some impurity phases. The natural surface morphology shows close packing of grains with few voids. Attempts have been made to study the (a) effect of microstructures containing grains, grain boundaries, and electrodes on impedance and capacitive characteristics, (b) relationship between properties and crystal structure, and (c) nature of the relaxation mechanism of the prepared samples. The relationship between the structure and physical properties is established. The frequency and temperature dependence of the dielectric properties reveal that this complex system has a high dielectric constant and low tangent loss. An analysis of impedance and related parameters illuminates the contributions of grains. The activation energy is determined for only the high temperature region in the temperature dependent AC conductivity graph. Deviation from the Debye behavior is seen in the Nyquist plot at different temperatures. The relaxation mechanism and the electrical transport properties in the sample are investigated with the help of various spectroscopic (i.e., dielectric, modulus, and impedance) techniques. This lead free sample will serve as a base for device engineering.
