We injection molded a wedge type of plate with micro prizm patterns on its surface and investigated the fidelity of replication of the micro pattern depending on the process parameter such as mold temperature, melt temperature, injection rate or packing pressure. The size of the size of the $90^{\circ}$ prizm pattern is $50{\mu}m$ and the size of the plate is about 300㎜${\times}$200㎜. The thicknesses are 2.6㎜. and 0.7mm at each edge of the wedge type of plate. The fidelity of the replication turned out quite different according to the process parameters and location of the patterns on the plate. We measured the cavity pressure and temperature in real-time during the molding to analyze the effect of the local melt pressure and temperature on the micro pattern replication.

Sandwich elements have high flexural rigidity and high strength per density. They also have excellent anti-vibration and anti-noise characteristics. Therefore, they are used for structures of airplanes and high speed ships that must be light, as well as strong. In this paper, the Reissner-Mindlin's plate theory is studied from a Hamilton's principle point of view. This theory is modified to include the influence of shear deformation and rotary inertia, and the equation of motion is derived using energy relationships. The theory is applied to a rectangular sandwich model which has isotropic, asymmetrical faces and an isotropic core. Investigations are conducted for five different plate thicknesses. These plates are identical to the sandwich plates currently used in various structural elements of surface effect ships (SES). The boundary conditions are set to simple supports and fixed supports. The elastic and shear moduli are obtained from the four-point bending tests on the sandwich beams.

The confined concrete subjected multi-axial stresses have been known as the strength of concrete increases significantly. Many researchers have studied in confining effects of concrete, and now are studying in many fields. However, there are few passive confinements by steel tube. Although Mander et al. studied the concrete confined by transverse reinforcements, the confinement by steel tube differs from confining of reinforcements. To investigate the influence of concrete strength increased by confining conditions in steel, 51 specimens confined by different shapes and thicknesses of steel tube were tested and compared.

The reactions between an active metal brazing alloy and interlayers together with the effects of interlayer type on the interfacial microstructure change were investiaged for silicon nitride/stainless steel joint. The bending strengths were measured for joints with Mo, Cu, Ni interlayer type of different thicknesses. It was found that the interlayer with a low yield strength value is effective to improve the bending strength of the Si3N4/stainless steel joint. The maximum joint strength obtained at room temperature for a laminated Cu/Mo interlayer was about 460 MPa. The combined use of Mo and thin Cu layer was found to be effective in enhancing the bending strength for the Si3N4/S.S.316 joint.

Different active layer thicknesses for zinc oxide (ZnO) bottom-contact thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated with a poly-4-vinyphenol polymeric dielectric using injector type atomic layer deposition. The properties of the ZnO TFTs were influenced by the active thickness and width-to-length (W/L) ratio of the device. The threshold voltage of ZnO TFTs shifted positively as the active layer thickness decreased, while the subthreshold slope decreased. The W/L ratio of ZnO TFTs also affected the mobility and subthreshold slope. An optimized TFT structure exhibited an on-tooff current ratio of above 106 with solid saturation.

Recently there has been a remarkable increase in the number of high speed and large ships and the high power involved for propulsion of above ships has brought high pitch ratio and highly skewed propeller. The recent tendency toward highly skewed propeller has increased the load on propeller blades, and the fatigue strength of propeller blades has become the critical point in design of propellers for ships. In this paper the effect of stress ratio and skew angle on the fatigue strength of highly skewed propeller, the statistical inference on the total revolutions of highly skewed propeller for 20 years under normal sea going state. and so on have been discussed. On the basis of above discussions, the highly skewed propeller blade thicknesses by the rules of classification society and the standards of manufacturer in country were compared and reviewed.

Thickness effects of coupling agent on residual bending stress were investigated in $Polyimide/SiO_2$ joints during thermal cycling. Thickness and peel strength of $\gamma$-APS coupling agent were measured and correlated with solution concentration and residual bending stress. The variation of residual bending stress with temperature was also measured for various thicknesses of the coupling agent. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for residual bending stress in $Polyimide/SiO_2$ joints.

We investigated that the metallurgical, mechanical and electrical properties of the Sn-3.SAg/Cu ball grid array (BGA) solder joints at a reflow temperature of $255^{\circ}C$ for different reflow times of 10, 60, 300 and 1800 s. Two different intermetallic compound (IMC) layers, consisting of scallop-shaped $Cu_6Sn_5$ and very thin $Cu_3Sn$, formed at the solder/substrate interface, and their thicknesses increased with increasing reflow time. The shear force peaked after reflow for 60 s, and then significantly decreased with increasing reflow time. The fracture occurred along the solder ball in the initial reflow, but the fraction of the brittle fracture increased with increasing reflow time. The IMC growth and the volume of Cu dissolved in the solder balls affected the electrical property.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the wedge slamming impact problem, including the fluid-structure interaction. A free drop test was performed to estimate the hydroelasticity. Three wedges were fabricated of 5 mm thick steel plate. The deadrise angles were $15^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, and $25^{\circ}$. Plate thicknesses of 2 mm and 3 mm were used to determine the effect of the structural rigidity. The drop heights were 25 cm, 50 cm, 75 cm, and 100 cm. The pressure on a rigid part of the wedge and strain of the elastic plate were measured at four different locations. The pressure was compared using the Wagner theory and generalized Wagner theory.

This paper is concerned with thermo-mechanical vibration behavior of flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams under uniform and linear temperature distributions. Flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams have higher natural frequencies compared to conventional piezoelectric ones, especially at lower thicknesses. Both nonlocal and surface effects are considered in the analysis of flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams for the first time. Hamilton's principle is employed to derive the governing equations and the related boundary conditions which are solved applying a Galerkin-based solution. Comparison study is also performed to verify the present formulation with those of previous data. Numerical results are presented to investigate the influences of the flexoelectricity, nonlocal parameter, surface elasticity, temperature rise, beam thickness and various boundary conditions on the vibration frequencies of thermally affected flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeam.
