In this study, the fluidity and compressive strength of lightweight mortar using recycling water for pre-wetting of artificial lightweight aggregate were compared and analyzed to maximize the utilization of the recycling water, which is a by-product of the Ready-Mixed Concrete industry. For this purpose, the pre-wetting water was replaced with recycling water at the ratio of 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10%.

Two-dimensional poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) films with wavy patterns were studied in order to investigate reversible and irreversible wetting effects. Pre-strained, surface oxidized layers of PDMS were used to form relieved wavy geometries, on which hydrophobic functionalization was carried out in order to produce irreversible wetting effects. Wavy-patterned PDMS films showed time-dependent reversible wetting effects. The degree of surface wettability could be tuned by the choice of wavy groove geometries. And the groove geometries were controlled via $O_2$ plasma treatment and mechanical pre-straining. The pre-strained, buckled PDMS films were applied to the fabrication of hydrophobic polystyrene nano-patterns using colloidal self-assembly, where the colloids were arrayed in two-dimensional way. The wavy polystyrene films were found to be more hydrophobic relative to flat polystyrene films. The grooving methodology used in this study could be applied to enhancing the hydrophobicity of other types of polymeric thin films, eliminating the need for chemical treatment.

This study is on the evaluation of performance of polymer cement mortar which is used for pre-wetting spray method. Pre-wetting spray method is an epoch-making method to repair concrete structures damaged, which is added a small quantity water preciously to dry mortar to reduce dust and rebound and spray mortar mixed with fixed quantity water at nozzle before spray. The result showed that physical performance such like compressive, flexural and adhesive strength of polymer cement mortar, TS 100 used for pre-wetting spray method was superior to other repair mortar. Also durable performance such as resistance on permeability of chloride ion, carbonation, chemical and freezing-thawing was excellent.

The object of this study was invest, igat, ing the failure phenomenon in the contact zone of rcpnired concrete structures due to the external climate change(hygral transient condition). This study was carrie out by calculating the non-stationary moisture and stress distribution in the repaired concrete structures with the cement mortar. In this analysis, main variables were the overlay thickness (Do=0.5-2.5cm). and the pre-wetting time(tc= l-5days). and the cxtcrnal 1.~1ative humidity(Ho=50-80%). The results show that the minimum overlay thickness and the minimum pre-wetting time are necessary to k e ~ p compressive stresses in the contact zone for a relative humidity.

This paper investigated optimum drying time of PCB and the relationship between humidity in PCB and solderability. As experimental results, soldering was improved with increasing drying time. The wetting time of a dry specimen was shorter about 0.2 seconds than that of a wet specimen. The wetting force was Increased by 2~4mN after drying the wet specimen. When PCB was dried over 30 minute, solder defects and tensile strength of soldered joints was optimized. Effects of drying tome of PCB on the soldering, wetting curve, soldered shape, solder ball, and tensile strength, were investigated.

The present research investigated the interaction among loading level, corrosion rate and flexural deflection of reinforced concrete beams. 10cm$\times$15cm$\times$110cm reinforced concrete beams were prepared and subjected to different levels of flexural loading, including 0%, 45% and 75% of the ultimate load. The beams with either a pre-load or a sustained load were also exposed to a laboratory environment with ponding and wetting/drying cycling at room temperature. Half cell potential and galvanized current measurements were taken to monitor corrosion process of reinforcing steel. After corrosion initiation, external current was applied to some of the beams to accelerate corrosion propagation. The beam deflections were recorded during the entire tests. The results indicate that loading level has significant effect on corrosion rate. The beams under a sustained load had much higher corrosion rate than the pre-loaded and then unloaded beams. Significant corrosion may result in an increase in beam deflection and affect serviceability of the structure. The present research may provide an insight into structural condition evaluation and service life predictions of reinforced concrete.

UBM (Under Bump Metallurgy) of flip chip assemblies consists of several layers such as the solder wetting, the diffusion barrier, and the adhesion layers. In addition, IMC layers are formed between the solder wetting layers (e.g. Cu, Ni) and the solder. The primary failure mechanism of the solder joints in flip chips is widely known as the fatigue failure caused by thermal fatigues or electromigration damages. Sometimes, the premature brittle failure occurs in the IMC layers. However, these phenomena have thus far been viewed from only experimental investigations. In this sense, this paper presents a method for solid modeling of IMC layers in flip chip assemblies, thus providing a pre-processing tool for finite element analysis to simulate the IMC failure mechanism. The proposed modeling method is CSG-based and can also be applied to the modeling of UBM structure in flip chip assemblies. This is done by performing Boolean operations according to the actual sequences of fabrication processes

The wetting behavior and the characteristic of spontaneous infiltration of pure Al and Al-(Si)-Mg alloys on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 } }} in vacuum argon and nitrogen atmosphere were investigated to find out the spontaneous in-filtration mechanism. The wetting of molten Al and Al alloys on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 } }} was only possible in cacuum at-mosphere but the sponataneous infiltration of molten Al-(Si)-Mg alloys was successfully made on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 } }} pre-form in nitrogen atmoshpere. The difference of wettability and spontaneous infiltration of molten Al and Al alloys on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 } }} were found to be related to formation of the Mg-N compound coated layer on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 } }} particles which was believd to increase wettability of molten Al alloys on {{{{ { {Al }_{ 2} O}_{3 }.

Lightweight aggregate which is composed of sintered polycrystalline materials usually has a certain portion of pores inside of it. Because of such a structural characteristics, it tends to that movement of water in aggregate shows an abnormal behavior against the change of outside environment. In general, water movement behavior is controlled by porosity, distribution of pore size; however, dense surface layer will also affect water movement behavior in case of artificially sintered aggregates. Factors affecting water movement behavior in the aggregate are pore distribution, pore shape, pre-wetting method, etc. In this study, absorption characteristics of aggregate under the pressure and absorption rate according to water dipping time are analyzed for the basis of pressure pumping of lightweight concrete. Two kinds of aggregates were used for the test: one is made by 'L' company in Germany and the other is of our own made at the pilot plant in Kyonggi University. Absorption rate of aggregate is measured according to water dipping time, vacuum pressure, and quenching condition. Absorption rate of aggregate with $300^{\circ}C$ quenching is higher than that of aggregate with 24 hr water dipping. Generally the more vacuum the higher water absorption rate. Water absorption rate of 'L' aggregate under -300 mmHg is 54 % higher than that of aggregate with 24 hr water dipping; however, only 2 % increase in water absorption was measured for the K622 and K73 which were of our own.
