This study aims to investigate the residual strength of sandwich composites with Al honeycomb core and carbon fiber face sheets after the quasi-static indentation damage by the experimental investigation. The 3-point bending test and the edge-wise compressive strength test were used to find the mechanical properties, and the quasi-static point load was applied to introduce the simulated damage on the specimen. The damaged specimens were finally assessed by the 3-point bending test and the compressive strength test. The investigation results revealed the residual strength of the damaged specimens due to the quasi-static indentation. The both test results showed that the residual strength of the damaged specimen was decreased according to increases of the damaged depth.

This study reports the origin of the electrochemical improvement of $LiFePO_4$ when synthesized by wet milling using acetone without conventional carbon coating. The wet milled $LiFePO_4$ delivers 149 $mAhg^{-1}$ at 0.1 C, which is comparable to carbon coated $LiFePO_4$ and approximately 74% higher than that of dry milled $LiFePO_4$, suggesting that the wet milling process can increase the capacity in addition to conventional carbon coating methods. UV spectroscopy, elemental microanalysis, and evolved gas analysis are used to find the root cause of the capacity improvement during the mechanochemical reaction in acetone. The analytical results show that the improvement is attributed to the conductive residual carbon on the surface of the wet milled $LiFePO_4$ particles, which is produced by the reaction of $FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ with acetone during wet milling through oxygen deficiency in the precursor.

The most important and largest commercial outlet of fly ash in Korea is a replacement material of Portland cement in concrete industry. The high level of unburned carbon in ash brings about some malfunctions in concrete. Therefore, fly ash is refined to improve the quality as a concrete additive. In this process, a lot of the residual carbon is produced, and discarded now. In the present study, to find out a valuable outlet of the enriched carbon samples, the basic morphology of residual carbon in fly ash from Boryung power plant was investigated. The unburned carbon characterization included shape, size measurement, and chemical analysis was examined using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX).

Residual stresses play important role for design of steel structural members. Cold formed sections usually have residual stresses caused by roll forming. When compared to stresses caused by the working load, especially for compressed members, the effects of residual stresses can be favorable or unfavorable depending on magnitude, orientation and distribution of these stresses. The research presented in this paper includes experimental investigations of residual stresses, initial imperfections and material properties on cold formed carbon steel open cross sections. Experimental results have been compared to results obtained in similar tests with stainless and high strength steel cross sections. Theoretical and experimental research, conducted for cold formed open cross sections, are important for design of axially compressed members. This paper presents two methods of residual stresses investigation: magnetic method and method of pre-drilled holes and obtained results have been compared with results of residual stresses from other authors.

This paper introduces a new method to estimate and decompose sources of carbon dioxide emissions using an input-output model with decomposition method free of residual usually associated with this kind of analysis. This method is different from others, using what we call 'mean rate-of-change index (MRCI)' for weights of the decomposed terms. Ang et al.(1998) asserted that logarithmic mean divisia index(LMDI) is superior to Laspeyres index(LI) or simple average divisia index(SADI) since it reduces residual to zero. We claim that our method is an improvement over the other methods because it enables residual free decomposition even when data contain negative values, the case which LMDI cannot handle. We demonstrate by way of showing some examples that our method is superior to LI, SADI(Proops, 1993 and Chung, 1998) or LMDI(Ang et al., 1998).

After imposing a large pre-strain, anisotropy increases with increasing residual extension ratio. Gums have very low residual extension ratio and exhibit little anisotropy, while black filled SBR and especially sulfur-cured carbon black filled NR have large set and anisotropy. For carbon black filled rubber, samples subjected to tensile loading in perpendicular to the pre-strain direction have the same stress-strain curves shape as the sample without pre-strain (=isotropic samples), but slightly lower modulus. However, compared to isotropic or perpendicular directional samples to pre-strain direction, samples subjected to tensile loading in parallel to the pre-strain direction show low stress at low deformation, but have high stiffness at high deformation. Normalized anisotropy changes with strain. The normalized anisotropy for various deformations is a linear function of residual extension ratio.

A continuum analysis has been performed for the application to the thermo-elasto-plastic behavior in a discontinuous metal matrix composite. an FEM (Finite Element Method) analysis was implemented to obtain the internal field quantities of composite as well as overall composite behavior and an experiment was demonstrated to compare with the numerical simulation . As the procedure, a reasonably optimized FE mesh generation, the appropriate imposition of boundary condition , and the relevant post processing such as elastoplastic thermomchanical analysis were taken into account. For the numerical illustration, an aligned axisymmetric single fiber model with temperature dependent material properties and precipitation hardening effect has been employed to assess field quantities. It was found that the residual stresses are induced substantially by the temperature drop during the thermal treatment and that the FEM results of the vertically and horizontally constrained model give a good agreement with experimental data.with non-woven carbon mat is about 24% higher than that of composite materials without non-woven carbon mat. Transverse tensile strength and torughness also increase by inserting non-woven carbon mat between layers.

The injection concentration of corrosion inhibitor increases under the pH 7, temperature of 2$0^{\circ}C$, and alkalinity of 35 mg/l (as CaCO$_3$), the corrosion rate gradually decreased. When the corrosion inhibitor of 10 mg/l is injected, the corrosion rate for carbon steel pipe, galvanized steel pipe, and copper pipe reduces for 37, 66 and 61 % respectively that it is more efficient on galvanized steel pipe and copper pipe. As a result of examination of corrosion rate at pH 6, 7, and 8 when injecting 10 mg/l of corrosion inhibitor under the conditions of 2$0^{\circ}C$ in water temperature and 35 mg/l (as CaCO$_3$) in alkalinity, the efficiency of the corrosion inhibitor increases as the pH increases. For carbon steel pipe, it does not show much a difference with the change of the pH condition, but galvanized steel pipe and copper pipe clearly show the corrosion rate depending on the change of the pH condition. The efficiency of corrosion inhibitor is low as the concentration of residual chlorine is high, but it does not show a great influence at 0.4 mg/l or less. For each pipe type, in the case of carbon steel pipe, the range of increase of corrosion speed following the residual chloride is higher than the other pipe types. In the meantime, the effect following the residual chlorine in copper pipe is low.

We have fabricated twisted nematic (TN) liquid crystal cells doped by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with different CNT wt. %. With a minute amount doping, multi-walled CNTs did not perturb the liquid crystal orientations at the off- and on-state. The hysteresis studies of voltage-dependent capacitance (V-C) under the influence of electric field generated by ac and dc voltage show that the residual do, which is tightly related to image sticking problem in liquid crystal displays, is greatly reduced due to ion trapping by CNTs. Also, the V-C hysteresis shows dependency of capacitance on concentration of multi-walled CNTs.

In this study, it is intended to investigate the effect of the grinding conditions such as table feed, down feed, cross feed of residual stress distribution. And this distribution is investigated upon the grinding direction and the its orthogonal direction at ground layers. The material is used carbon steel (SM20C) which usually used to motor axis. And in order to be considered as Bernoulli-Euler beam, the dimension of the specimen is appropriately designed. According as corroiding the ground surface, the residual stress layers are removed and strain which occured on account of unbalance of internal stress is detected by rosette-gate. Through A/D converter and computer, these values are saved and evaluated residual stress by stress-strain relation formula. Finally, these results are diagrammatized with Auto Cad. The results obtained are as follows. As the depth from the ground surface increases in grinding direction and its orthogonal direction, tensile residual stress exists in the surface, and subsequently it becomes compressive residual stress as it goes downward. As the table feed, the cross feed and the down feed increase, maximum residual stress is transformed form the tensile to the compressive.
