Plasma treatment time was optimized to maximize the bonding strength between silicon and quartz. Bonding strength between the silicon and quartz is related to a surface energy which can be calculated by contact angle measurement. It was found that optimized time to get maximized surface energy was 15 sec. Silicon and quartz wafers were treated with $O_2$ plasma under different time splits and then bonded together. Bonding strength of the bonded wafers was measured by shear test. It was verified that the highest bonding strength was obtained when the silicon and quartz wafers were treated for 15 seconds. The maximum bonding strength exceeded the fracture strength of silicon.

The use of advanced composite materials in many engineering structures has steadily increased during the last decade. Advanced composite materials allow the design engineer to tailor the directional stiffness and the strength of materials as required for the structures. Design variables to the design engineer include multiple material systems. ply orientation, ply thickness, stacking sequence and boundary conditions, in addition to overall structural design parameters. Since the vibration and impact strength of composite cylindrical shell is an important consideration for composite structures design, the reliable prediction method and design methodology should be required. In this study, the optimum design of composite cylindrical shell for maximum natural frequency, buckling strength and impact strength are developed by analytic and numerical method. The effect of parameters such as the various composite material orthotropic properties (CFRP, GFRP, KFRP, Al-CFRP hybrid), the stacking sequences, the shell thickness, and the boundary conditions on structural characteristics are studied extensively.

An experimental study has been carried out on square plain concrete (PC) and reinforced concrete (RC) columns strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. A total of 78 specimens were loaded to failure in axial compression and investigated in both axial and transverse directions. Slenderness of the columns, number of wrap layers and concrete strength were the test parameters. Compressive stress, axial and hoop strains were recorded to evaluate the stress-strain relationship, ultimate strength and ductility of the specimens. Results clearly demonstrate that composite wrapping can enhance the structural performance of square columns in terms of both maximum strength and ductility. On the basis of the effective lateral confining pressure of composite jacket and the effective FRP strain coefficient, new peak stress equations were proposed to predict the axial strength and corresponding strain of FRP-confined square concrete columns. This model incorporates the effect of the effective circumferential FRP failure strain and the effect of the effective lateral confining pressure. The results show that the predictions of the model agree well with the test data.

This paper summarizes the study on effect of ceramic waste powder as partial substitute to cement in binary blend and along with silica fume in ternary blend high strength concrete in normal and aggressive environments. Strength parameters such as compression & tension and durability indices such as corrosion measurement, deterioration, water absorption and porosity were studied. Ceramic waste powder was used in three different percentages namely 5, 10 and 15 with constant percentage of silica fume (1%) as substitutes to cement in ternary blend high strength concrete was investigated. After a detailed investigation, it was understood that concrete with 15% ceramic waste powder registered maximum performance. Increase of ceramic waste powder offered better resistance to deterioration of concrete.

It was one of the most important studies in materials to obtain high strength in cant iron. Therefore, malleable cast iron and spheroidal graphite cast iron were developed. However, due to the large demand of gray cast iron, a study on the development for high strength in is very important. The author published a paper on the study on the effect of Al addition. In this study, the effect of Cu addition will be assessed on strength improvement in cast iron. Copper is known as the element of graphitization and pearlitization, so it is expected to obtain valuable results. The results obtained from this study are as follows ; 1. When copper was added to cast iron, tensile strength increased by 30%, and hardness increased by 13%. 2. The tensile strength showed a maximum when copper was added 1.0%.

Reinforced concrete (RC) interior beam-column joints with high-strength materials: concrete compressive strength of 100 MPa and the yield strength of longitudinal bars of 685 MPa, were analyzed using three-dimensional (3-D) nonlinear finite element method (FEM). Specimen OKJ3 of joint shear failure type was a plane interior joint, and Specimen 12 of beam flexural failure type was a 3-D interior joint with transverse beams. Though the analytical initial stiffness was higher than experimental one, the analytical results gave a good agreement with the test results on the maximum story shear forces, the failure mode.

The reactions between an active metal brazing alloy and interlayers together with the effects of interlayer type on the interfacial microstructure change were investiaged for silicon nitride/stainless steel joint. The bending strengths were measured for joints with Mo, Cu, Ni interlayer type of different thicknesses. It was found that the interlayer with a low yield strength value is effective to improve the bending strength of the Si3N4/stainless steel joint. The maximum joint strength obtained at room temperature for a laminated Cu/Mo interlayer was about 460 MPa. The combined use of Mo and thin Cu layer was found to be effective in enhancing the bending strength for the Si3N4/S.S.316 joint.

A large Pc structure building is system that consisted of bearing wall and slab joint. It has general structure stability from unity thar each members tied at joint. The strength of mortar that packing in joint among panels is important to internal force in entire building system. Do, if we could get early strength estimation with microwave. It would bring good construction planning, reduce construction time, and judge building stability and so on. The purpose of this study is to develop early estimation method for making better quality control and constructing good PC panel structure. The results of this study were as follows :1) With sealed molds, reduced moisture volatilization to more than 60% and enlarged 30% accelerated compressive strength than before one. 2) To get more accelerated strength, we should control maximum temperature difference to $30^{\circ}C$ downward 3)Interrelation with 7-day and 28-day strength were 0.831,0.902, and it is above than before one

It was fond that the compressive and flexural strength of recycled concrete was decreased with increasing the content of recycled aggregate and the early compressive strength was also decreased with increasing Fly Ash level. In comparison with recycled concretes producing various sources, the trend were similar to those shown above, but the differences were minor. the development of Flexural strength in both concretes was similar, but the recycled concrete is lower in the ratio of flexural strength and compressive strength. The drying shrinkage of recycled concrete is increased with increasing the amount of recycled aggregate, particularly the maximum differences were reached between at 2 and 3 weeks.

The small punch test have been developed to evaluate the material strength of the power plant components. This small punch test specimen is very small than the conventional strength test specimens. Korea Electric Power Research Institute (KEPRI) have been applying this test to assess accurately the life of thermal power plant and enhancing the reliability. The small punch test for gas turbine blades is under development. It's possible to compare the relative strength among the same materials having different operation histories. In this paper, the strength reductions of gas turbine materials are investigated by the small punch tests. All materials shows the almost same strength and deformation with the allowable deviation. At the same test temperature, the damaged material has the maximum load value. The strength reduction is not shown in this small punch test results.
