  • Idea of using piezoelectric materials with flexible structures made of rubber-like materials is quite novel. In this study a non-linear finite element model based on updated Lagrangian (UL) approach has been developed for dynamic response and its control of rubber-elastic material with surface-bonded PVDF patches/layers. A compressible stain energy density function has been used for the modeling of the rubber component. The results obtained are compared with available analytical solutions and other published results in some cases. Some results are reported as new results which will be useful for future references since the number of published results is not sufficient.

  • A various structural materials are used in construction projects such as a stone, concrete, steel materials. Between of them, concrete are used widely. The compressive strength of concrete is high, and its maintenance and management is comparatively easy. The R.C Building will be superannuated as time passes. This program is generated by propagation of cracks. In order to manage such cracks, time and efforts, expense, etc. are required. In this study, glass sensors were embedding in a model beam and column and leakage of fluorescence and adhesive material was investigated. Further, currents in glass pipe were observed to find the leakage of liquid in glass pipes. Progressive cracks generated by cause the fracture of glass pipes. Therefore, the liquid become to flow and electric current stops, and the cracked part of the member can be found easily. Moreover, the adhesive delays progressive cracking system that responds in air, and the life of a structure can be made to extend. The purpose of this research is to develop of low price sensors that can perform of self-diagnosis in addition to ability of concrete repair concrete to damage.

  • A Shadow mask in C. R. T. (Cathod Ray Tube) undergoes a temperature increase due to impinging electron beams emitted from guns, and thermal deformation from such temperature rise may cause the electron beams to island on the panel, and thus give rise to depolarization. Hence the analysis of temperature distribution for a shadow mask is an important procedure for designing the shadow mask. In this paper, we are concerned with nonlinear finite element analysis of the temperature distribution on a shadow mask. First of all, we replace shadow mask, containing numerous apertures of a slit type, by an orthotropic shell without apertures, and calculate the apparent thermal conductivities. Because of thermal radiation, which is one of the major heat transfer mechanism for shadow masks, the resulting finite element equation is nonlinear and solved by the Newton method. Finally numerical examples are illustrated for a 21" FST(Full Square Tube) shadow mask, and followed by discussion.sion.

  • This paper presents a deformable strut-and-tie model of determining the shear strengths and ultimate deformations of the shear-dominant reinforced concrete members. The proposed model originates from the strut-and-tie model concept and satisfies equilibrium, compatibility, constitutive laws, and the geometric conditions of shear deformation. This study attempts to apply deformation patterns to strut-and-tie models. The yielding of flexural reinforcements determines yielding states and the ultimate states of reinforced concrete coupling beam are defined as the ultimate compressive strain of struts and the degradation of compressive strength due to principal tensile strain of struts. The validity and accuracy of the proposed model is then tested against available experimental data. The parameters reviewed include the ratios of truss action and arch action, the reinforcement ratios, and the shear span-depth ratio. It is expected that this model can be applied to displacement-based design methods.

  • By using electron beam evaporation under appropriate conditions, we obtained graphene intercalated sheets on Si(111) with an average crystallite size less than 11nm. The formation of such nanocrystalline graphene was found as a time-dependent function of carbon deposition at a substrate temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$. The structural and electronic properties as well as the surface morphology of such produced materials have been confirmed by reflection high energy electron diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy.

  • Ductility of open piled wharves under reversed cyclic loads has been investigated. Experimental testing of five wharf models having a scale of about 1:4 was conducted under the application of horizontal reversed cyclic loading. The experiments were designed to focus on the horizontal ultimate load, ductility and failure mode of the considered wharf models. Nonlinear numerical analyses using the finite element method were also performed on numerical models representing the experimentally tested wharves. The results of the experimental tests showed that open piled wharves possessed favourable ductile behaviour and that their load bearing capacity did not depreciate until a ductility factor of 3 to 4 was reached. The numerical analysis showed that the relative rotation that took place at the joints between the steel piles and the R.C. beam was responsible for a considerable portion of the total horizontal deformation of the wharves. Therefore, it was concluded that introducing the joint stiffness in calculating the deformations of open piled wharves was important to achieve reasonable accuracy.

  • This paper presents the behavior and strengthening effect of reinforced concrete rectangular beams strengthened using CFRP sheets with different strengthening level. In general, normally strengthened beams are failed by interfacial shear failure (delamination) within concrete, instead of by tensile failure of the CFRP sheets. The delamination occurred suddenly and the concrete cover cracked vertically by flexure was spalled off due to the release energy. The strengthened beams were stiffer than the control beam before and after reinforcement yielding. The ultimate load considerably increased with an increase of strengthening level, while the ultimate deflection significantly decreased. The tensile force of CFRP sheets and average shear stress of concrete at delamination failure were curvilinearly proportional to the strengthening level. Therefore, the increment of ultimate load obtained by strengthening was curvilinearly proportional to the strengthening level. The averaged horizontal shear stress of concrete at the interface ranges between (equation omitted) and (equation omitted) (in kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$) depending on strengthening level.

  • In this investigation, fracture mechanism of the pre-cracked beams strengthened with FRP-Rod and GSP(Glass Fiber-Steel Plate) were experimentally studied by the repeating load test according to the three different loading speeds. In the experiments, it was identified that pre-crack in the damaged beams led the significant fracture type of the strengthened beams and loading speed did not influence the behaviors of the fractures. On the other hand, strengthened beams by GSP have more large increasing effects of the strength comparing to beams strengthened with FRP-Rod, but they have a brittle behaviors in fracture.

  • The fabrication of mold fur nano imprint lithography (NIL) is experimentally reported using the scanning probe lithography (SPL) technique, instead of the conventional I-beam lithography technique. The nanometer scale patterning structure is fabricated by the localized generation of oxide patterning on the silicon (100) wafer surface with a thin oxide layer, The fabrication method is based on the contact mode of scanning probe microscope (SPM) in air, The precision cleaning process is also performed to reach the low roughness value of $R_{rms}=0.084 nm$, which is important to increase the reproducibility of patterning. The height and width of the oxide dot are generated to be 15.667 nm and 209.5 nm, respectively, by applying 17 V during 350 ms.

  • 본 연구에서는 fiexible 기판에 e-beam으로 sio2를 증착 한 후 R.F 스퍼터링으로 ito 박막을 증착한 경우와 polyimide를 스핀 코팅한 후 ito를 증착한 경우로 나누어서 실험 하였다. SIO2 박막은 ITO증착을 위해 증착온도 $100^{\circ}C$에서 증착 하였으며 ITO 박막은 투과율을 향상 시키기 위해서 Ar/O2 혼합가스를 이용하였다. SIO2 와 ITO 박막의 두께는 각각 500nm, 200nm로 증착하였다. Stress 분포는 bending test를 통해 발생하는 island의 crackt 수로 측정 하였다. 그 결과 crack 분포는 buffer layer의 young's modulus 크기와 island density 영향이 지배적임을 확인 하였다.
