This study aims to increase students' understanding of equilibrium, one of the many concepts in chemistry that students find difficult. Dynamic equilibrium must be dealt with at the sub-microscopic level where the real and the representation overlap in order to microscopically understand the constant motion and interaction of particles and to understand the macroscopic characteristics expressed through this. However, as a result of analyzing 9 Chemistry I textbooks, the expression approach for equilibrium had some limitations. As a strategy to understand equilibrium at a sub-microscopic approach, the classes using scratch were consisted of a total of 4 hours, and it was implemented with 56 students. The classes were composed of 6 steps, and it was designed to understand equilibrium step by step. As a result of comparing the pretest and post- test, the number of students who got both the microscopic and macroscopic explanations of chemical equilibrium correct increased largely. Through this, it was possible to get a glimpse of the applicability of classes using scratch as the approach strategy of the sub-microscopic representation.

To figure out the weldability and welded joint performance on the FCAW of SM490TMC 120mm, several specimens were manufactured and 10 kinds of experiments were implemented. The result of the weld zone chemical composition test, weld metal tensile test, weld zone tensile test, and weld zone impact test has satisfied the KS. Especially, the weld zone tensile test result shows the base metal fracture, which means the weld zone performs enough required performance. In addition, the results of the weld zone bending test, hardness test, macroscopic test, microscopic test, and the maximum hardness in HAZ were showing that the FCAW weld zone has fine quality.

Various material characteristics of HSA800 steel were examined and a quantitative criteria about the homogeneity of the strength was proposed. Whether HSA800 steel is satisfied the criteria for homogeneity of the strength or not was also examined. From the test results, the material characteristics of 1/4 point from the extreme fiber in the Z-direction satisfied the KS requirements. The excellent directional properties and impact resistance at low temperatures were also showed from the test results. HSA800 steel satisfied the criteria of homogeneity for the strength of the steel. However, it showed that some structures were banded together at 2/4 point from extreme fiber in the Z-direction from the microscopic tests and attention is needed to be paid in that point.

Seven types of tests were conducted to experimentally evaluate the material properties of ultral-thick (or 120mm-thick) SM490TMC plate. The investigation of through-thickness properties was among the most significant considerations. All chemical and mechanical test results showed the through-thickness homogeneity as required and conformed to the KS(Korean industrial Standards), although the thickness was 1.5 times thicker than the thickness limit (80mm) imposed by Steel Structure Design Code. No reduction in the yield strength of 120mm-thick SM490TMC plate is recommended for design.

The single dose toxicity of Hwangiaegongjinbo, an invigorator developed by Korea Medical Science Institute was evaluated in ICR mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. The aqueous solution of freeze-dried powder of Hwangiaegongjinbo or its original solution was once administrated orally to both sexes of mice and rats at dose of 2000 mg/kg, the recommended upper limit dose for acute toxicity. Water was administered to another group as control. after single adminstration, sign of toxicity were observed every hour for the first 6 hours and every day for 14 days. Neither sign그cant toxic sign nor death was observed during the observation period. In addition, no pathological changes were noticed in macroscopic examination at necropsy in those treated group. These results indicated that $LD_{50}$ of Hwangiaegongjinbo is greater than 2000 mg/kg in ICR mice and Sprague-Dawley rats.

It is important to evaluate strength of dissimilar weld zone to use dissimilar materials safely. This study examines mechanical characteristics of dissimilar weld zone between low alloy steel and austenitic stainless steel that satisfies welding related requirements of ASME Code, experimentally reviews metallurgical and mechanical properties at and adjacent to weld interface. It is confirmed that hardness singularity occurs at the weld interface, and that optimum buttering thickness is more than 5㎜ from view points of tensile & yield strength. From a macroscopic view, brittle fracture characteristics is observed in buttering weld zone by tensile test.

Granitic rock, by its nature, contains numerous micro-discontinuities including grain boundary, microcracks, microcavities and mineral cleavages. The brittle fracture of rock is a progressive procedure in which the failure occurs with prior microcracking. In this paper, initiation, propagation and interaction of microcracks are considered to be the dominant, controlling micromechanisms of macroscopic failure. The authors show a few patterns of microcrack initiation and propagation by using sequential photographs of water-saturated granite taken under triaxial compressive state. The failure process was observed directly and continuously by a newly developed triaxial compressive test system.

A PHE (Process Heat Exchanger) is a key component required to transfer heat energy of $950^{\circ}C$ generated in a VHTR (Very High Temperature Reactor) to the chemical reaction that yields a large quantity of hydrogen. A small-scale PHE prototype made of Hastelloy-X is being tested in a small-scale gas loop at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. In this study, as a part of the evaluation on the high-temperature structural integrity of the small-scale PHE prototype, we carried out macroscopic high-temperature structural analysis of the small-scale PHE prototype under the gas loop test conditions considering the pipeline stiffness.

This study was conducted in order to examine the effect of burn damage and the resultant anti-corrosion performance. The breakdown and defect of the paint film caused by burn damage are considered to affect not only the macroscopic appearance but also the adhesive force and the anti-corrosion performance of the paint film. The material of the paint film was epoxy paint that is used most widely for heavy-duty coating, and in order to induce burn damage, heat treatment with a torch was applied to the other side of the paint film. Surface and chemical structure changes according to aging were analyzed using FE-SEM and infrared absorption spectroscopy, and variation in the anti-corrosion performance was analyzed through the AC impedance test.

An anisotropic beam model is proposed by employing an asymptotic expansion method for thermo-mechanical multiphysics environment. An asymptotic method based on virtual work is introduced first, and then the variables of mechanical displacement and temperature rise are asymptotically expanded by taking advantage of geometrical slenderness of elastic bodies. Subsequently substituting these expansions into the virtual work principle allows us to asymptotically expand the virtual work. This will yield a set of recursive virtual works from which two-dimensional microscopic and one-dimensional macroscopic equations are systematically derived at each order. In this way, homogenized stiffnesses and thermomechanical coupling coefficients are derived. To demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed approach, composite beams are taken as a test-bed example. The results obtained herein are compared to those of three-dimensional finite element analysis.
