Composite thin-walled members for civil engineering application are mainly produced by pultrusion technique, and they are generally made of a polymeric resin system reinforced by E-glass fibers due to economical reason. This material combination results in low elastic moduli of the composite materials and makes the design of composite members to be governed by stability limit state. Therefore the buckling behavior of composite thin-walled members was experimentally investigated in the present study. Axial compression was applied on each specimens by a hydraulic ram and knife edge fixtures were placed at both ends to simulate simple boundary condition. Axial compression, lateral displacements and twisting at the mid-height of each specimen were measured by a set of transducers during buckling test. The experimental buckling loads were compared with analytical results obtained through isotropic formulas. In the calculation of analytical results, elastic properties such as Young's modulus(E) and shear modulus(G) were replaced with EL and GLT obtained from coupon tests, respectively.

Low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology offers significant benefits over the other established packaging technologies for high density, high microwave frequency, and fast signal application. Most conventional electroceraramics do not meet the basic requirements in respect of sinterability for LTCC technology. Attention is, therefore, focused on the role of glasses because of the capability they supply with lower sintering temperatures. In this study, commercial ceramic (MBRT-90) in the system BaO-N $d_2$ $O_3$-Ti $O_2$ (BNT: 40 ~ 80 wt%) and L $a_2$ $O_3$- $B_2$ $O_3$-Ti $O_2$ glass (LBT;60 ~ 20 wt%) were prepared. These glass/ceramic composites were evaluated for sintering behavior, phase evaluation, densities, interface reaction, crystallinity, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties. It was found that the addition LBT glass frits significantly lowered the sintering temperature to below 90$0^{\circ}C$ and as temperature increased (750~90$0^{\circ}C$) densification developed dynamically which was meant to be as over 95% of relative density. It is supposed that in the microstructure, the grain size was increased accompanying with the formation of different phases such as LaB $O_3$ and Ti $O_2$ under the condition of increasing sintering temperature. The sintered bodies represented applicable dielectric properties, namely 20 ~ 40 for $\varepsilon_{{\gamma}}$, ~ 10000 GHz for Q* $f_{0}$ and 10~80 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ for $\tau$$_{f}$. The results suggest that the composite is one of feasible candidates for the microwave use in LTCC technology.y.e use in LTCC technology.y.

Transparent conducting ZnO films were deposited to apply DSSC Substrate on glass substrates at $500^{\circ}C$ by ionbeam-assisted deposition. Crystallinity, microstructure, surface roughness, chemical composition, electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated as a function of deposition parameters such as ion energy, and substrate temperature. The microstructure of the polycrystalline ZnO films on the glass substrate were closely related to the oxygen ion energy, arrival ratio of oxygen to Zinc Ion bombarded on the growing surface. The main effect of energetic ion bombardment on the growing surface of the film may be divided into two categories; 1) the enhancement of adatom mobility at low energetic ion bombardment and 2) the surface damage by radiation damage at high energetic ion bombardment. The domain structure was obtained in the films deposited at 300 eV. With increasing the ion energy to 600 eV, the domain structure was changed into the grain structure. In case of the low energy ion bombardment of 300 eV, the microstructure of the film was changed from the grain structure to the domain structure with increasing arrival ratio. At the high energy ion bombardment of 600 eV, however, the only grain structure was observed. The electrical properties of the deposited films were significantly related to the change of microstructure. The films with the domain structure had larger carrier concentration and mobility than those with the grain structure, because the grain boundary scattering was reduced in the large size domains compared with the small size grains. The optical transmittance of ZnO films was dependent on a surface roughness. The ZnO films with small surface roughness, represented high transmittance in the visible range because of a decreased light surface scattering. By varying the ion energy and arrival ratio, the resistivity and optical transmittance of the films were varied from $1.1{\times}10^{-4}$ to $2.3{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}cm$ and from 80 to 87%, respectively. The ZnO film deposited at 300 eV, and substrate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ had the resistivity of $1.1{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ and optical transmittance of 85% in visible range. As a result of experiments, we provides a suggestition that ZnO thin Films can be effectively used as the DSSC substrate Materials.

The purpose of this investigation is to estimate the strength with the variations of the notch shape and the adgesive condition at the fiber/matrix micro interface of E-glass/PP laminates. To promote the degradation of the adhesive condition at the fiber/matrix micro interface without matrix dissolution loss, low-, hot-wet and spiking tests were carried out. The absorpotion properties and the tensile properties were compared accrding to the fiber orientation and the content. The results show that, firstly, saturated moisture absorption was reached at 5cycles and their absorptions of RD-40, UD-42 and UD-50 are 0.68%, 0.63%, 0.60%, respectively. Secondly, all the specimens investigated were mostly degraded at 5cycle, whereas UD-50 having ellipse shaped notch the least decrement of strength.

This study proposes a interim development result for the l-㎾ class small wind turbine system, which is applicable to relatively low wind speed regions like Korea and has the variable pitch control mechanism. In the aerodynamic design of the wind turbine blade, parametric studies were carried out to determine an optimum aerodynamic configuration which is not only more efficient at low wind speed but whose diameter is not much larger than similar class other blades. A light composite structure, which can endure effectively various loads, was newly designed. In order to evaluate the structural design of the composite blade, the structural analysis was performed by the finite element method. Moreover both structural safety and stability were verified through the full-scale structural test.

For decades, the pursuit of volume commercialization of low-power reflective displays with a paper-like look has been an unfulfilled dream. While steady technical progress was made throughout the late 1990s, there were still no volume products incorporating electronic paper displays (EPD) on the market. Now, microencapsulated electrophoretic display technology, also called electronic ink, has moved into volume production with a frontplane laminate (FPL) display component called E Ink Imaging Film™. This film is coated roll to roll on a flexible plastic substrate and integrated into a display module. Today, all-plastic segmented displays are being shipped as well as displays with electronic ink FPL being driven by glass TFT backplanes. A roadmap to active matrix flexible electrophoretic displays is being enabled by rapid technical progress on flexible TFT backplanes by a variety companies. Each of the approaches to these backplanes and flexible active matrix displays has different advantages for the various market segments being pursued including large format flexible displays for e-news and other reader applications, rollable displays for compact readers, and high resolution small format displays up to 400 ppi that can have fully integrated drive electronics to reduce size and drive down costs. Backplane approaches include Si on plastic, organic transistors on plastic, and Si transistors on flexible stainless steel substrate. Progress is also being made on next generation inks, including more reflective inks with higher contrast ratios. A full color 6 inch, 170 pixel per inch (PPI) active matrix display using a newer generation ink has been developed and this will be described and demonstrated. Large format segmented flexible displays will also be described.

한국 전체 에너지 사용량 중약 24%의 에너지가 건축물 부분에 소비되고 있다. 건축물의 벽체나 유리창 등을 통해서 에너지 손실이 이루어지는데 유리창은 벽체에 비해 약 10배 이상 낮은 단열 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 유리창을 통한 열손실량은 더 크다. 이러한 유리창 부분의 열손실 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방안으로 좋은 단열 특성 및 낮은 방사율을 가지고 있는 Low-e coating 방법을 사용하였다. 본 실험에서는 XG glass 기판 위에 IGZO/Ag/IGZO OMO 구조의 다층 박막을 증착하였다. RF magnetron sputtering방법을 이용하여 OMO 구조의 상부와 하부의 Oxide layer로 IGZO 박막을 증착하였다. 사용된 IGZO 타겟은 $In_2O_3$ (99.99%), $Ga_2O_3$ (99.99%), ZnO (99.99%)의 분말을 각각 1:1:1 mol% 조성비로 혼합하여 소결하여 제작하였다. Thermal Evaporator 장비를 이용하여 OMO 구조의 Metal layer로 Ag (99.999%)를 증착하였다. 실험 기판은 크기 $30{\times}30mm$의 0.7T XG glass를 사용하였다. OMO 구조의 산화층 IGZO 박막은 상/하층 동일 조건으로 기판 온도는 실온으로 고정하였으며, 초기 압력 $3.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr, 증착 압력 $3.0{\times}10^{-2}$ Torr, RF 파워 50W, Ar 유량 50 sccm로 고정시키고 증착 시간이 변화하면서 박막을 증착하였다. OMO 구조의 Metal layer로 Ag 증착 조건은 초기 진공도가 약 $6.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr 이하로 유지하고 기판을 2 Rpm의 속도로 회전시켰다. 이후 0.3 V로 Ag를 10분간 가열하여 충분히 녹인 후 Film Thickness Monitor로 두께를 확인하였다. OMO 다층 박막의 산화물층 변화에 따라 로이다층 박막의 구조적, 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. XRD 분석결과에 의하여 Bragg's 법칙을 만족하는 피크가 나타나지 않는 비정질 구조임을 확인할 수 있으며, AFM 분석결과에 통해서 최소 1.3 nm의 Roughness를 나타내었다. UV-Visible-NIR 분광광도계를 이용하여 다층 박막은 가시광선 영역에서 평균 80%의 광 투과성을 보여 IR 영역에서 평균 30% 투과하고 좋은 차단 특성을 나왔다. Low-e 특성을 갖는 유리창을 통해서 에너지 절약을 이룰 수 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

A dual-channel glass coil sampling technique was used to measure hourly formaldehyde concentration in the ambient air. The dual-channel coil sampling assembly consists of three parts; an all-pyrex 28-turn coil made of 0.2-cm internal diameter glass tubing for gas-liquid contact and scrubbing of soluble gases, an inlet section upstream of the coil for introducing sample air and scrubbing solution, and a widened glass section downstream of the coil for gas-liquid separation. The scrubbing solution used was a dilute aqueous DNPH (dinitrophenylhydrazine) solution. Hourly concentration of formaldehyde was determined at a Gwangju semi-urban site during two intensive studies between September and October using the dual channel glass-coil/DNPH sampling technique and HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) analysis. The mean concentration was 1.7($0.4{\sim}4.7$) and 3.0($0.5{\sim}19.1$) ppbv for the September and October intensives, respectively, which are considerably low, compared to those measured in polluted urban areas around the world including several urban areas of Korea. The diurnal variation showed significant increase of formaldehyde in the daytime suggesting the dominance of formation of formaldehyde due to photochemical oxidation of methane and other hydrocarbons. An increase in the formaldehyde sometimes in the night might be due to an increase in primary source, i.e. traffic emissions. It was also found that rapid increase in formaldehyde levels from 3.0 to 19.1 ppbv in the afternoon on October 20 was due to plumes from burning of agricultural wastes such as rice straw and stubble. It is expected from the measurement data that the constructed dual-channel glass coil sampling system can be utilized for measuring atmospheric concentration of the formaldehyde with high time resolution.

As a II-IV compound semiconductor, ZnO has a wide band gap of 3.37 eV with transparent properties. Due to this transparent properties, ZnO materials can be also employed as the transparent conducting electrode materials. Recently, rapid progress has been made in the field of DSSC (dye sensitized solar cell)area. Therefore, strong demands have been required for the transparent electrodes with low temperature processing and cheap cost. In this paper, we will prepare ZnO thick films on the PET substrates for the electrode applications. We will investigate the structural and microstructure properties through the XRD, and SEM analysis, respectively. Also, we will study the electrical of specimens to apply the conducting electrode.
