As a subsequent study, this paper presents a comparative evaluation of structural responses in asphalt pavements with stabilized foundations. The approach based on a finite element analysis which incorporates non-linear behaviors of pavement geomaterials is used to estimate each performance indicator under standard single axle loading condition. In addition, results from laboratory tests are used to provide physical and mechanical properties of stabilized geomaterials for analyzing various pavement structures. Changes in pavement responses with varying layer thickness and stabilizer contents were investigated. It is found that the effect of layer thickness and stabilizer content is a critical factor in structural response of stabilized pavements. Moreover, a design criterion is proposed for selecting minimum contents of stabilizer of coarse-grained geomaterials based on a result of unconfined compressive strength and proper layer thickness of foundations.

While critical properties of BSCCO wires rely considerably on grid direction upon BSCCO and have very complicated mechanism of generating a superconducting phase, making it difficult to improve properties of wires, YBCO thin-film wires which can be formed in a superconducting phase upon metal board through vapor deposition processing can get excellent direction and reduce manufacturing costs with more flexibility in improving critical properties; thus, they will be suitable for instrument application in the future. Contrary to BSCCO wires for which thick silver alloy covering materials should inevitably be used, moreover, YBCO thin-film wires have an advantage of making thickness and quality of covering materials different by usage. Such a property can be an important element to widen application of wires by presenting possibility of using thin-film wires as superconducting material for fault current limiter as well as for high power current application. In this study we intend to prepare YBCO thin-film wires with different stabilizer layers to analyze current application and current restriction properties by stabilizer layers on the basis of detailed researches on changes in current classification properties below critical value.

The mechanical properties of REBCO coated conductor (CC) tapes under uniaxial tension are mainly determined by the thick layer Components like the substrate and the stabilizer. Depending on the applications of the CC tapes, it is also needed to externally reinforce thin metallic foils to one side or both sides of the CC tapes. This study investigated the effect of additional stabilizer layers or lamination on the electrical resistivity and electromechanical properties in RCE-DR processed GdBCO CC tapes with different structures. The strain/stress tolerance of I_c in differently processed 12 mm-wide REBCO CC tapes under uniaxial tension at 77 K and self-field could be determined by the loading-unloading scheme. As a result, Sn-Cu stabilized CC tape showed a significant decrease in mechanical properties due to its soft but thick stabilizing layer. However, similar electromechanical properties have been observed on both Sn-Cu and Sn-stabilized CC tapes, the I_c degradation behavior was independent of whether the CC tape has an external reinforcement or different stabilizing layers.

The promising characteristics of 2G high-temperature superconductor (HTS) coated conductor (CC) tapes have made it possible to apply to various electrical device applications. In this study, the mechanical and electromechanical properties of Sn-Cu double layer stabilized GdBCO CC tapes have been characterized. The stress and strain tolerances of $I_c$ in GdBCO CC tapes adopting stainless steel substrate were evaluated using $I_c$-strain measurement at 77 K under both uniaxial tension and monotonic bending conditions. The results were compared to the conventional single Cu layer stabilized CC tape. As a result, the Sn-Cu double layer stabilized GdBCO CC tapes showed somehow lower or comparable electromechanical properties as compared to the Cu stabilized CC tape ones.

In this paper, the stability criteria of cosmeceuticals emulsion containing Broussonetia kazinoki extracts was established using the central composite design model. As optimization conditions of the emulsification using the central composite design model, concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer were used as a quantitative factor while emulsion stability index (ESI) and polydispersity index (PDI) were used as a reaction value. The targeted values of ESI and PDI were estimated as over 60% and the minimum number, respectively. Optimized concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer were 3.73 and 3.07 wt%, respectively, from the emulsification optimization based on ESI and PDI values. The estimated reaction values of ESI and PDI were 60% and 0.585, respectively. As concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer increased, the stability of the emulsion prepared tended to increase. The emulsifier was one of the most influential factors for ESI than the emulsion stabilizer. On the other hand, the PDI value was similarly affected by both the emulsion and emulsion stabilizer. The ESI of the cosmeceuticals emulsion prepared under experimental conditions deduced from the central synthesis planning model showed at least about 45% of the stability. However, all of the emulsions were separated after 4 weeks from the initial preparation. When the concentration of the emulsifier was more than 3.72 wt%, the ESI value was over 60%. Also the layer separation rate decreased with increasing the emulsion stabilizer concentration.

In this research, environmental friendly organic acid containing microetching system to improve adhesion strength between photoresist resin and Copper Clad Laminate(CCL) was developed without using strong oxidant $H_2O_2$. Etching rate and surface contamination on CCL were examined with various etching conditions with different etchants, organic acids and additives. to develope an optimum microetching condition. Etching solution with 0.04 M acetic acid showed the highest etching rate $0.4{\mu}m/min$. Etching solution with the higher concentration of APS showed the higher etching rate but surface contamination on CCL is very serious. In addition, stabilizer solution also played an important role to control the surface contamination. As a result of research, the etching solution containing 0.04 M of acetic acid, 0.1 M of APS with 4 g/L of stabilizer solution(ST-1) was best to improve adhesion between CCL and photoresist resin as well as showed the most clean and rough surface with the etching rate of $0.37{\mu}m/min$.

As a material for SFCL(Superconducting Fault Current Limiter), BSCCO tube with metal stabilizer is a promising candidate, assuring the stability and large power capacity, For the application, the proper soldering technique, which overcome the difficulties of the joining between BSCCO and metal stabilizer, is required. In this study, after soldering In-Bi solder and In-Sn solder with BSCCO superconductor, welding properties between BSCCO and solders were investigated. Because ceramic materials is difficult to weld, Ag electro-plating on BSCCO 2212 is used for intermetallic layer. To find out the best welding condition for superconductor, soldering is tested in the maximum temperature from $155^{\circ}C\;to\;165^{\circ}C$ in the reflow oven. By investigating the composition and thickness of IMC (lntermetallic Compound) created in the reaction of Ag with solder, we analyzed the welding properties of High-Tc superconductor from a micro point of view.

In order to develop a high temperature superconducting(HTS) coil for the fault current limiter(FCL), the over-current characteristics in YBCO coated conductor(CC) with Ni-W alloy substrate are analyzed. The HTS wire is wound by bifilar winding method for resistive current limitation and it is operated in 65K sub-cooled nitrogen. In order to analyze the resistance and the temperature characteristics of the CC wire, an analysis program is developed considering all the composition materials except the buffer layer. Using this program, the temperature rise, the resistance development and the current limitation of CC are calculated depending on the applied voltage and the stabilizer materials. According to the analysis results, under the temperature restriction of 300K, the maximum voltage per meter is determined as 40V/m if the stabilizer is $25{\mu}m$ thick stainless steel at each side. Finally, the wire length needed for the distribution level HTS FCL is estimated.

The resistance and recovery properties of the YBCO thin-film wire according to the existence and thickness of an insulting layer, and the kinds of stabilization layers, were analyzed at 90 K, 180 K and 250 K. In this study, YBCO thin-film wires with different stabilizing layers and with insulating layers were examined in terms of their various characteristics, such as quenching occurrence, spread, and distribution, based on their resistance increase trends and their recovery from quenching, and the results were qualitatively explained. The results of this study on the characteristics of YBCO thin-film wires' superconducting and normal-conducting phase changes are expected to be useful in designing superconducting power machines and in improving their performance.
