This paper shows an experimental study for fundamental characteristics of alkali activated fly ash-slag cement paste exposed to seawater of 5℃. Fly ash and slag were blended in three different ratios; 6:4, 7:3, and 8:2. Activators (NaOH and Na2SiO3) used 5% of the binder weight. It was shown that as the fly ash substitution rate in creased, compressive strength and density decreased, and water absorption rate increased. The results of X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetry showed that hydration reactants formed in samples did not differ significantly, however, C-S-H gel increased as the slag substitution rate increased. It showed that mechanical properties of fly ash-slag cement pastes under 5℃ seawater condition were affected by the slag substitution rate rather than fly ash.

Organosilicate films are promising porous low-dielectric materials, which can replace the silicon dioxide films. It was researched that organosilicate films have two different chemical shifts according to the increase of the flow rate ratio. There are the red shift due to the electron deficient substitution group, and the blue shift of the electron rich substitution group. Among these chemical shifts, the blue shift from $1000 cm^{-1}$ to $1250 cm^{-1}$ was related with the formation of pores. The methyl radicals of the electron-rich substitution group terminate easily the Si-O-Si cross-link, and the Si-O-C cage-link near $1057 cm^{-1}$ is originated from the cross-link breakdown due to much methyl radicals.

This study was intended to examine the possibility of reducing hydration heat by FA substitution and combination of slag (CGS) from coal gasification power generation (IGCC) with mixed aggregate for concrete. The analysis results showed good results if liquidity increases as the ratio of CGS increases, air volume decreases, and compressive strength is mixed up to 25% in the residual aggregate. The results showed that the heat of hydration was reduced compared to plain due to the boron content of CGS as the CGS substitution rate increased, but it was larger due to the combination with FA substitution. It was found that the heat of hydration was reduced.

Cardiac arrhythmias are common heart diseases and generally cause sudden cardiac death. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is an effective tool that can reveal the electrical activity of the heart and diagnose cardiac arrhythmias. We propose detection of P waves based on QRST cancellation zero-one substitution. After preprocessing, the QRST segment is determined by detecting the Q wave start point and T wave end point separately. The Q wave start point is detected by digital analyses of the QRS complex width, and the T wave end point is detected by computation of an indicator related to the area covered by the T wave curve. Then, we determine whether the sampled value of the signal is in the interval of the QRST segment and substitute zero or one for the value to cancel the QRST segment. Finally, the maximum amplitude is selected as the peak of the P wave in each RR interval of the residual signal. The average detection rate for the QT database was 97.67%.

Recently, interest in utilization plan of recycling paper have been enhanced. Therefore, this research aimed to develop the manufacture process of cellulose acetate using old newsprint by acetosolv pulping process. And the manufactured cellulose acetate was also analyzed, especially based on chemical properties. The summarized results in this research were as follows; Reaction time, kind and amount of catalyst, and ratio of liquor to material were varied during acetosolv pulping process of old newsprint. Ratio of liquor to material did not give the significant difference in reaction product. Delignification rate was increased with increasing reaction time during acetosolv pulping, but yield and degree of substitution decreased with increasing reaction time. Sulfuric acid are better catalyst than hydrochloric acid in acetosolv pulping process for old newsprint, and optimal addition amount of catalyst was 1% based on reaction material. Delignification, yield, and degree of substitution were influenced by the catalyst and reaction time. Under pulping condition of $120^{\circ}C$ in 1/12 liquor to material ratio and 60min, degree of substitution was about 0.7. The acetylation reaction was not completely caused by these reaction condition. The examination of the FT-IR spectra revealed that absorption band(1200$\textrm{cm}^{-2}$, 1,750$\textrm{cm}^{-1}$) caused by carbonyl group were confirmed.

All production and consumption activities produce wastes, which often cause damage to our environment and multiple risks to the human health. The valorization of these wastes in concrete technology is a future solution that will allow finding other construction materials sources, optimizing energy consumption and protecting the environment. Among these wastes, there is the marble waste. Every year, huge amount of marble waste is discarded as dust or aggregates form, in open-air storage areas causing serious problems for the environment and public health. In this context, the incorporation of marble waste as a replacement of ordinary aggregates or cement in concrete composition is actively investigated by researchers. This paper presents a comprehensive review of published studies over the last 20 years, dealing the effect of marble waste on fresh and hardened properties of concrete. Most of the studies carried out have used marble waste as dust with substitution rates between 5 and 20%. Besides the economic and ecological benefits, this review showed that marble waste can improve the physical, mechanical and durability properties of concrete. This improvement depends on the form (dust, fine aggregate or coarse aggregate), substitution method (as cement or aggregates replacement) and substitution rate of marble waste. Additionally, the review results showed that the use of 10-15% of marble waste dust as cement substitution can lead to increase the compressive strength.

In this study, the time-dependent chloride ingress behavior in GGBFS concrete was evaluated considering marine exposure conditions and the properties of concrete mixtures. The concrete mixture for this study had 3 levels of water to binder ratio and the substitution rate of GGBFS, and outdoor exposure tests were performed considering submerged area, tidal area, and splash area. According to the evaluation results of diffusion coefficient considering properties of concrete mixtures, as the substitution rate of GGBFS increased, the decreasing rate of the diffusion coefficient decreased based on exposure periods of 730 days(2 years). As the evaluation result of the diffusion behavior according to the marine exposure conditions, the diffusion coefficient was evaluated in the order of submerged area, tidal area, and splash area. In tidal area, a relatively high diffusion coefficient was evaluated due to the repetition of wet and dry seawater. In this study, the effects of GGBFS substitution rate on the decreasing behavior of apparent chloride diffusion coefficient was analyzed in consideration of exposure conditions and periods. Linear regression analysis was performed with apparent chloride diffusion coefficient as output value and GGBFS substitution rate as input value. After 730 days of exposure, the effect of GGBFS on diffusion coefficient was significantly reduced. Even for OPC concrete, after 730 days, the diffusion coefficient was as low as that of GGBFS concrete, so the gradient of the regression equation decreased significantly. It is thought that improved durability performance for chloride ingress can be secured before 730 days through the use of GGBFS.

HPFRCCs(High performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites) is a class of FRCCs(Fiber reinforced cementitious composites) exhibit multiple crack. Multiple crack lead to improvement in ductility, toughness, and deformation capacity under compressive and tensile stress. These properties of HPFRCCs are affected by type of fiber, water cement ratio, type of admixture and rate of substitution. Furthermore these influence dispersion of fiber, mixing performance and fluidity of mixture. In this paper, HPFRCCs made of steel cord and carbon fiber were tested with water cement ratio, type of admixture and rate of substitution to evaluate characteristics of mixing and flexural strength.

In these days, there are out of natural sands in the construction field. It is required that development of substitute material for natural material. The blast-furnace slag could be a good alternative material in this situation. It can help resource recycling and the protection of environment. This study presents that the strength properties of mortar using air-cooled blast-furnace slag sand and water-cooled blast-furnace slag sand. The mixing design of this study have a few factors, three type of unit water, four types of W/C, five types of substitution rate. When air-cooled furnace slag sand used in mortar, as substitution rate is higher, 3, 7-days compression strength and flexural strength are going up. But, in case of water-cooled furnace slag sand mortar, strengths are going down.
