A technology of hardening porous materials of titan powders has been elaborated. The technology is based on passing alternating current with duration of ${\sim}10^{-1}{\ldots}10^1$ s through porous ($35{\ldots}40%$) blanks made by method of Sintering by Electric Discharge (SED) by passing a pulse of current with duration of ${\sim}10^{-5}{\ldots}10^{-3}$ s. The influence of technological regimes of porous blanks treatment on their structure and properties is investigated. Geometry and dimension of contact necks between powder particles of obtained samples are evaluated. Variations of porosity and strengths as well as microstructure of porous samples materials before and after treatment are investigated. Optimum range of treatment technological regimes is determined within which porosity of $30{\ldots}35%$ with maximum strength values.

MgO thin films were deposited bye-beam evaporation on $SiO_2$/Si wafers for the application of a protective layer in alternating current plasma display panels (AC-PDPs). Three different MgO sources, single crystal, melted polycrystal and sintered polycrystal, were used to find out the change of the properties of MgO protective layer depending on the source type. The properties of MgO thin films such as density, orientation and surface morphology were influenced by the source type. MgO thin films deposited with the melted polycrystal source had the highest density with the highest (100) preferred orientation, whereas the films deposited with the sintered polycrystal source had the lowest density with less preferred orientation. Such a result seems to be originated from the different mobility of adatoms on the surface of the deposited MgO thin films. Different microstructures of MgO thin films deposited even in the same deposition condition were observed depending on the MgO source type, resulting in different discharge characteristics.

we have investigated the field emission characteristics of the CNT/TEOS hybrid thin films fabricated by a spray method. It is found that the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters show high current density, low turn on field, and long-term emission stability compared to the CNT emitters. These efficient field emission characteristics of the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters are attributed to the TEOS sol, acting as a protection layer of nanotube emitter by surrounding the nanotube tip as well as a binder material to enhance the adhesion of nanotube emitters to the substrate. Therefore, the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters could be utilized as an alternative for the efficient and reliable field emitters.

Despite advancements in the development of synthetic fibers and materials that provide better insulation, fire burn injuries remain a significant issue. To ensure adequate protection, clothing and equipment must be selected on the basis of performance. There are different standards like ISO standards applicable to each of the various types of clothing used by fire fighters. But, in most cases, the tests are performed in the conditions of high heat flux exposure, the clothing material can be destroyed easily. Thus the effective way to investigate the protective performance for the low (radiant) heat flux conditions should be needed. Therefore improved RPP (Radiant Protective Performance) test method based on the onset of pain burn injury was suggested. Experiments were performed to verify the proposed method with current protective clothing for fire fighters and the transient heat transfer characteristics were identified, also. Moreover, several protective performance indices were acquired from experimental results to analyze their relations.

M $g_{1-x}$ Z $n_{x}$O thin films with various composition x of ZnO were fabricated by a RF magnetron sputtering method, which is expected to improve the electro-optical properties of the conventional MgO protective layer for AC-PDP. Test panels with the $Mg_{1-x}$Z $n_{x}$O protective layer have been fabricated in order to investigate the effects of ZnO doping on the electrical characteristics of devices such as the discharge voltages and the memory gain. Experimental results revealed that test panels with the $Mg_{1-x}$Z $n_{x}$O(x=0.5at%) protective layer show lower firing and sustain voltages than those seen in panels with MgO protective layer by 20V. resulting in an increasement of the memory coefficient. In addition, it was found that test panels with the $Mg_{1-x}$Z $n_{x}$O protective layer show higher discharge intensity, i. e., higher plasma density, compared with panels with MgO protective layer.ve layer.layer.

In terms of protective engineering, there are no noticeable researches regarding covered-positions for smaller units in South Korea. So, standards to maintain and build protective facilities for larger units have been applied in ones for smaller units without any adjustment. The previous study was to calculate penetration depth of the concrete walls because the experiment performed indoor. In this outdoor experiment, velocity of projectile impact as one of the other important factors was considered to prove the validity of 30cm concrete wall thickness as effective protective level of the covered-position. Random effects and extraneous variables which could be occurred in outdoors experiment were controlled with statistical techniques. As a result, velocity of projectile impact was significant variable and the given standard, 30cm thickness of concrete walls was as valid as ever.

The purpose of this study is to research the actual condition of working environment, working clothes and personal protective equipments on workers at a construction site in winter. The one to one interview by questionnaire was performed with 33 males and 2 females workers of a construction site in Daegu at $1.3^{\circ}C$ air temperature, 28% R.H., 4.7m/sec air velocity. The questionnaire consisted of 21 questions including 4 personal characteristics questions, 12 working environment/performance questions and 5 working clothes/personal protective equipments questions. It was modified from the original questionnaire developed by Finnish Institute Occupational Health. We found that physical stress of workers increased and the ability of performance decreased. The workers felt the coldest at hands/fingers, feet/toes and the face part of cheek, nose and ears. They rarely wore thermal clothing for winter and answered that the thermal gloves for winter did not provided enough warmth. Even if the workers recognized the necessity of personal protective equipments for their safety, they did not wear them for efficiency of working performance. These results will be useful elementary materials for development of working clothes and personal protective equipments from the viewpoint of improving both working performance and comfort.

The goal of this study is to investigate a metal cladding that contains SiC composites as a protective layer and analysis the characteristics of the specimens on high temperature oxidation To make SiC composites, the current process needs a high temperature (about $1100^{\circ}C$) for the infiltration of fixing materials such as SiC. To improve this situation, we need a low temperature process. In this study, we developed a low temperature process for making SiC composites on the metal layer, and we have made two kinds: cladding with protective SiC composites made by polycarbosilane(PCS), and a PCS filling method using supercritical carbon dioxide. A corrosion test at $1200^{\circ}C$ in a mixed steam and Ar atmosphere was performed on these specimens. The result show that the cladding with protective SiC composites have excellent oxidation suprression rates. This study can be said to have developed new metal cladding with enhanced durability by using SiC composite as protective films of metal cladding instead of simple coating film.

Background: Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) operates several nuclear research facilities licensed by Nuclear Safety and Security Commission (NSSC). The emergency preparedness requirements, GSR Part 7, by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) request protection strategy based on the hazard assessment that is not applied in Korea. Materials and Methods: In developing the protection strategy, it is important to consider an accident scenario and its consequence. KAERI has tried the hazard assessment based on a hypothesis accident scenario for the major nuclear facilities. During the assessment, the safety analysis report of the related facilities was reviewed, the simulation using MELCOR, MACCS2 code was implemented based on a considered accident scenario of each facility, and the international guidance was considered. Results and Discussion: The results of the optimized protective actions were 300 m evacuation and 800 m sheltering for the High-Flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor (HANARO), the evacuation to radius 50 m, the sheltering 400 m for post-irradiation examination facility (PIEF), 100 m evacuation or sheltering for HANARO fuel fabrication plant (HFFP) facility. Conclusion: The results of the optimized protective actions and its distances for the KAERI facilities for the maximum postulated accidents were considered in establishing the emergency plan and procedures and implementing an emergency exercise for the KAERI facilities.
