The handle of fabrics including tactility and sense of visuality are closely related to the factors governing the preferences of end-users. This study shows the change of mechanical properties, thermal properties and optical properties by comparing two fabrics which are woven with circular shaped filaments and with triangular ones. The fabric mechanical characteristics required for primary hand values were evaluated with the KES-FB system. The mechanical properties measured by KES-FB system shows that fabrics made of circular filaments are greater than those made of triangular ones. The thermal properties measured by KES-F7(Thermo Labo II) system shows that the values of the initial maximum value(qmax) and the thermal conductivity(λ) are higher in the fabric made of triangular shaped ones. When the light rays tall on a surface, the fabric made of triangular filaments shows more lustrous than circular ones.

Due to the advantageous mechanical properties of the fiber reinforced polymeric plastics(FRP), their application in the construction industries is ever increasing trend, as a substitute of structural steel which is highly vulnerable under hazardous environmental conditions (i.e., corrosion, humidity, etc.). In this study, hybrid FRP-concrete composite pile (HCFFT) connection is suggested. The HCFFT is consisted of pultruded FRP unit module, filament wound FRP which is in the outside of mandrel composed of circular shaped assembly of pultruded FRP unit modules, and concrete which is casted inside of the circular tube shaped hybrid FRP pile. Therefore, pultruded FRP can increase the flexural load carrying capacity, filament wound FRP and concrete filled inside can increase axial load carrying capacity. In the study, connection capacity of HCFFT(small and mid size) is investigated throughout experiments and finite element method. From the results of experiments, we suggested the connection methods about HCFFT pile connection.

In this paper, new type CFFT (Concrete Filled FRP Tube) was suggested in order to improve the flexural stiffness. Since the existing CFFT was produced by filament winding process, re-bar for concrete may be necessary in order to ensure structural safety under flexure re-bar. In comparison with existing type CFFT, new type CFFT was reinforced by circular shaped pultrusion FRP without re-bar. Filament winding FRP was attached to the outer layer of pultrusion FRP. Structural behavior of new type CFFT filled with concrete (HCFFT) was investigated by the mechanical property test for the component element and the FE analysis. Furthermore, compressive strength of the HCFFT member based on the equation suggested in previous studies.

Myxosporeans are widespread cnidarian endoparasites in marine and freshwater ecosystems and several species were reported to be a threat to cultured fish causing serious diseases with mass mortality. In the present study, we found a myxosporean species in the genus Thelohanellus from the gills of the cultured common carp (Cyprinus carpio) fingerling for the first time in Korea. The morphological observation showed 500 ㎛ ~ 1 mm size, oval to circular shaped plasmodia containing spores which are pyriform at the anterior end and round at the posterior end (average size 20.1 ㎛ × 9.1 ㎛), with 5 to 6 turns of a single polar filament located in the polar capsule with an average size of 10 ㎛ × 4.6 ㎛. The 18S rRNA sequence was closest to the sequence of T. wangi among Thelohanellus species infecting gills but was not completely identical. Based on the morphological characteristics and molecular analysis results, we classified the present myxosporean parasite as Thelohanellus sp., temporarily. The prevalence and infection intensity of Thelohanellus sp. in the common carp fingerling were very high, which was thought to be the main cause of high mortality.
