Polystyrene was degraded by using a vibrating ball mill. The viscosities and molecular weights of the degraded products were measured, and the decrease of viscosity $[\eta}$ with ${\dot{s}}$ (rate of shear) observed for the degraded products were analyzed by applying the Ree-Eyring equation for viscous flow. The variation of the parameters $x_2$/{\alhpa}_2,{\beta}_2$ and $x_1{\beta}_1/{\alpha}_1$ in the equation were explained by the fracture of polymer molecules by mechanical force. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of the degraded sample was taken, and it was confirmed that free radicals were produced by the chain-scission of polystyrene.

A novel Permanent Magnet based Magneto Rheological (PM-MR) damper is proposed in this paper. The principle of proposed MR damper is achieved by designing a linearly varying magnetization area with-respect to the movable permanent magnetic based piston setup. Nowadays, commercially available MR damper uses electromagnetic coils for generating the variable magnetic fields corresponding to the variable damping force. The amount of magnetic field produced by the electromagnetic coils are depends on the biasing current of voltage source. The key enabling concept of the proposed MR damper is to replace the electromagnetic coils and the voltage sources by utilizing the variable area based permanent magnetic piston setup. The proposed unique design structure of PM-MR damper has an increasing shear mode damping force with the piston movement in both jounce and rebound motion. In this research, analytical model of the proposed structure is derived and the structural design of proposed concept is verified using numerical CAD tool. As a result, the damping force is increase when piston movement in both jounce and rebound motion.

The paper presents the identification of dynamic property of a rotor system with a squeeze film damper (SFD) using magnetic fluid. An electromagnet is installed in the inner damper of the SFD. The magnetic fluid is well known as a functional fluid. Its rheological property can be changed by controlling the applied current to the fluid and the fluid can be used as lubricant. Basically, the proposed SFD has the characteristics of a conventional SFD without an applied current, while the damping and stiffness properties change according to the variation of the applied electric current. Therefore, when the applied current is changed, the whirling vibration of the rotor system can be effectively reduced. The clustering-based hybrid evolutionary algorithm (CHEA) is used to identify linear stiffness and damping coefficients of the SFD based on measured unbalance responses.

MR Fluid, one of functional fluids, is developed for the application to automobile products. MR CDC damper using MR fluid has following principles. When ar electric current is applied to the solenoid, apparent viscosity of MR fluid passing through the annular gap which acts as magnetic circuits varies directly as the intensity of the current. These devices have a simple structure and excellent lime response characteristics, emerging as the alternatives of the conventional semi-active suspension systems. In this study, a design procedure of the magnetic circuit through the solenoid fore and the flux ring functioning as a magnetic path is investigated so as to optimize the design and performance of MR CDC dampers for the vehicles. In addition, an operating point on the B-H curve, the magnetization according to the variation in the annular gap, the pole piece width and the density of MR fluid are studied to design the optimal piston head within the restrained dimension range.

The fiber(NY, PP) known to the effective material on improvement of the fire-resistance of HSC(high strength concrete) has a difference for fluidity according to the variation of a length and contents of fiber. In this study, to analyze the effect of a length and contents of the fiber on the fluidity of HSC and fheological characteristics, we calculated a viscosity of mortar by mini slump-flow, simple V-lot and viscometer. With the test results, the fluidity characteristic showed a moderate difference by a length and contents of the fiber, but showed a significant difference by increase of the fiber contents. ${\ast}$ AFR Concrete (Advenced Fire Resistant Concrete)

The rheological behaviour of high strength self compacting concrete (HS-SCC) studied through an experimental investigation is presented in this paper. The effect of variation in supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ four different types of processed crushed sand as fine aggregates is studied. Apart from the ordinary Portland cement (OPC), the SCMs such as fly ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) ultrafine slag (UFS) and micro-silica (MS) are used in different percentages keeping the mix -paste volume and flow of concrete, constant. The combinations of rheology, strength and durability are equally important for selection of mixes in respect of high-rise building constructions. These combinations are referred to as the rheo-strength and rheo-durability which is scientifically linked to performance based rating. The findings show that the fineness of the sands and types of SCM affects the rheo-strength and rheo-durability performance of HS-SCC. The high amount of fines often seen in fine aggregates contributes to the higher yield stress. Further, the mixes with processed sand is found to offer better rheology as compared to that of mixes made using unwashed crushed sand, washed plaster sand, washed fine natural sand. The micro silica and ultra-fine slag conjunction with washed crushed sand can be a good solution for high rise construction in terms of rheo-strength and rheo-durability performance.

This paper focuses on the vibration control of long-span reticulated steel structures under multi-dimensional earthquake excitation. The control system and strategy are constructed based on Magneto-Rheological (MR) dampers. The LQR and Hrovat controlling algorithm is adopted to determine optimal MR damping force, while the modified Bingham model (MBM) and inverse neural network (INN) is proposed to solve the real-time controlling current. Three typical long-span reticulated structural systems are detailedly analyzed, including the double-layer cylindrical reticulated shell, single-layer spherical reticulated shell, and cable suspended arch-truss structure. Results show that the proposed control strategy can reduce the displacement and acceleration effectively for three typical structural systems. The displacement control effect under the earthquake excitation with different PGA is similar, while for the cable suspended arch-truss, the acceleration control effect increase distinctly with the earthquake excitation intensity. Moreover, for the cable suspended arch-truss, the strand stress variation can also be effectively reduced by the MR dampers, which is very important for this kind of structure to ensure that the cable would not be destroyed or relaxed.

In order to investigate flow characteristics of blood flow in a micro tube ($100{\mu}m$ in diameter) according to hematocrit, in-vitro experiments were carried out using a micro-PIV technique. The micro-PIV system consists of a microscope, a 2 head Nd:YAG laser, a 12 bit cooled CCD camera and a delay generator. Blood was supplied into the micro tube using a syringe pump. Hematocrit of blood was controlled to be 20%, 30% and 40%. The blood flow has a cell free layer near the tube wall and its thickness was changed with increasing the flow rate and hematocrit. The hemorheological characteristics such as shear rate and viscosity were evaluated using the velocity field data measured. As the flow rate increased, the blunt velocity profile in the tube center was sharpened. The viscosity of blood was rapidly increased with decreasing shear rate, especially in the region of low shear rate, changing RBC rheological properties. The variation of velocity profile and blood viscosity shows typical characteristics of Non-Newtonian fluids. On the basis of inflection points, the cell free layer and two-phase flow consisting of plasma and suspensions including RBCs were clearly discriminated.
