Antifungal cement mortar or microbiological calcium carbonate precipitation on cement surface has been investigated as functional concrete research. However, these research concepts have never been fused with each other. In this study, we introduced the antifungal calcite-forming bacteria (CFB) Bacillus aryabhattai KNUC205, isolated from an urban tunnel (Daegu, South Korea). The major fungal deteriogens in urban tunnel, Cladosporium sphaerospermum KNUC253, was used as a sensitive fungal strain. B. aryabhattai KNUC205 showed $CaCO_3$ precipitation on B4 medium. Cracked cement mortar pastes were made and neutralized by modified methods. Subsequently, the mixture of B. aryabhattai KNUC205, conidiospore of C. sphaerospermum KNUC253, and B4 agar was applied to cement cracks and incubated at $18^{\circ}C$ for 16 days. B. aryabhattai KNUC205 showed fungal growth inhibition against C. sphaerospermum. Furthermore, B. aryabhattai KNUC205 showed crack remediation ability and water permeability reduction of cement mortar pastes. Taken together, these results suggest that the $CaCO_3$ precipitation and antifungal properties of B. aryabhattai KNUC205 could be used as an effective sealing or coating material that can also prevent deteriorative fungal growth. This study is the first application and evaluation research that incorporates calcite formation with antifungal capabilities of microorganisms for an environment-friendly and more effective protection of cement materials. In this research, the conception of microbial construction materials was expanded.

콘크리트 표면에 존재하는 균열은 염소이온의 침투에 대한 빠른 침투 통로가 되어 내구성능을 저하시킬 수 있다. 균열을 제어하기 위하여 설계적 측면에서 높은 철근비로 균열폭을 감소시킬 수는 있으나, 이러한 균열이 실질적으로 내구성을 저하시키는데에 따른 검토 및 내구성 향상을 유도할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 표면도막공법은 균열폭이 작은 경우에 균열을 실링하여 염소이온 침투를 차단하는데 가장 간단한 방법중의 하나이며, 경제성 대비 성능도 만족할 만 하다. 그래서 표면도막공법이 콘크리트와 균열을 함침하여 유해물질의 침투로 인한 철근의 부식을 제어하기 위한 유효성을 검토하는 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 표면도막공법으로 압축응력 인가로 인한 미세균열을 통한 염소이온 침투의 제어 가능성을 검토하고자 하였다. 실험결과는 염소이온은 압축응력 인가율 50~70%, 탄산화는 70~80%의 범위에서 임계응력이 존재하는 것으로 나타났는데, 이 임계치 이상을 초과하게 되면 상대적으로 심각한 열화가 진전되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 표면도막공법은 균열치료효과를 얻는데 유효한 것으로 판단되었다.

The effect of oxidation and hot corrosion on the solid particle erosion was investigated for hot-pressed silicon nitride using as-polished, pre-oxidized and pre-corroded specimens by molten sodium sulfates. Erosion tests were performed at 22, 500 and $900^{\circ}C$ using angular silicon carbide particles of mean diameter $100{\mu}m$. Experimental results show that solid particle erosion rate of silicon nitride increases with increasing temperature for as-polished or pre-oxidized specimens in consistent with the prediction of a theoretical model. Erosion rate of pre-oxidized specimens is lower than that of as-polished specimens at $22^{\circ}C$, but it is higher at $900^{\circ}C$. Lower erosion rate at $22^{\circ}C$ in the pre-oxidized specimens is attributed due to the blunting of surface flaws, and the higher erosion rate at $900^{\circ}C$ is due to brittle lateral cracking. Erosion rate of pre-corroded specimens decreases with increasing temperature. Less erosion at $900^{\circ}C$ than at $22^{\circ}C$ is associated with the liquid corrosion products sealing off pores at $900^{\circ}C$ and the absence of inter-granular crack propagation observed at $22^{\circ}C$.

One of the biggest problems affecting bridges is the transverse cracking and deterioration of concrete bridge decks. The causes of early age cracking are primarily attributed to plastic shrinkage, temperature effects, autogenous shrinkage, and drying shrinkage. The cracks can be influenced by material characteristics, casting sequence, formwork, climate conditions, geometry, and time dependent factors. The cracking of bridge decks not only creates unsightly aesthetic condition but also greatly reduces durability. It leads to a loss of functionality, loss of stiffness, and ultimately loss of structural safety. This investigation consists of field, laboratory, and analytical phases. The experimental and field testing investigate the early age transverse cracking of bridge decks and evaluate the use of sealant materials. The research identifies suitable materials, for crack sealing, with an ability to span cracks of various widths and to achieve performance criteria such as penetration depth, bond strength, and elongation. This paper also analytically examines the effect of a wide range of parameters on the development of cracking such as the number of spans, the span length, girder spacing, deck thickness, concrete compressive strength, dead load, hydration, temperature, shrinkage, and creep. The importance of each parameter is identified and then evaluated. Also, the AASHTO Standard Specification limits liveload deflections to L/800 for ordinary bridges and L/1000 for bridges in urban areas that are subject to pedestrian use. The deflection is found to be an important parameter to affect cracking. A set of recommendations to limit the transverse deck cracks in bridge decks is also presented.

We have been using Moisture Barrier Bags for dry packing of semiconductor packages to prevent moisture from absorbing during shipping. Moisture barrier bag material is required to be waterproof, vapor proof and offer superior ESD (Electro-static discharge) and EMI shielding. Also, the bag should be formed easily to the shape of products for vacuum packing while providing excellent puncture resistance and offer very low gas ＆ moisture permeation. There are some problems like pinholes and punctured bags after sealing and before the surface mount process. This failure may easily result in package pop corn crack during board mounting. The bags should be developed to meet the requirements of excellent electrical and physical properties by means of optimization of their raw material composition and their thickness. This study investigates the performance of moisture barrier bags by characterization of their mechanical endurance, tensile strength and through thermal analysis. By this study, we arrived at a robust material composition (polyester/Aluminate) for better packing.

Magnesium alloy is limited in the industrial field because its standard electrode potential is -2.363 V vs. NHE (Normal Hydrogen Electrode) at 25 ℃. This high electrochemical activity causes magnesium to quickly corrode with oxygen in air; chemical conversion coating prevents corrosion but causes surface defects like cracks and pores. We have examined the anti-corrosion effect of sol-gel coating sealed on the defected conversion coating layer. Sol-gel coatings produced higher voltage current and smaller pore than the chemical conversion coating layer. The conversion coating on magnesium alloy AZ31 was prepared using phosphate-permanganate solution. The sol-gel coating was designed using trimethoxymethylsilane (MTMS) and (3-Glycidyloxypropyl) trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as precursors, and aluminum acetylacetonate as a ring-opening agent. The thermal shock resistance was tested by exposing specimens at 140 ℃ in a convection oven; the results showed changes in the magnesium alloy AZ31 surface, such as oxidization and cracking. Scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) analysis confirmed a sealed sol-gel coating layer on magnesium alloy AZ31. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measured the differences in corrosion protection properties by sol-gel and conversion coatings in 0.35 wt% NaCl solution, and the potentiodynamic polarization test and confirmed conversion coating with the sol-gel coating show significantly improved resistance by crack sealing.

미캐니컬 씰은 회전축에 장착되는 밀봉장치의 하나로써 많은 산업 현장에서 사용되고 있다. 산업발전과 더불어 미캐니컬 씰의 고장 즉, 밀봉장치에서의 누설, 크랙, 파손, 과대마멸 등과 같은 이상 상태는 대규모 공장의 생산라인을 정지시키거나 심각한 환경오염을 유발시키는 등 경제, 사회적 문제를 야기시키고 있다. 미캐니컬 씰 밀봉면의 미끄럼 운동상태를 인지하고, 미캐니컬 씰의 고장에 대한 감시인자를 도출하기 위하여 미끄럼 마멸실험을 수행하였다. 미캐니컬 씰의 회전속도를 1750 rpm 으로 하여, 매 10 분 마다 미캐니컬 씰 밀봉면의 마멸상태를 광학현미경으로 관찰하였고, 실험동안에 미캐니컬 씰의 미끄럼 운동면에서의 음향방출(AE : Acoustic Emission), 토크, 온도, 등을 측정하였으며, 실시간으로 토크 신호의 주파수 분석을 실시하였다. 각 실험의 초기를 제외하고는 전 구간에서 음향방출 신호의 크기와 토크 값의 변화 경향이 대체로 유사한 경향을 보였다. 정상상태에서는 음향방출, 토크 및 온도가 안정된 상태를 유지하였으나, 이상상태에서는 음향방출의 크기와 토크값이 안정된 상태를 유지하지 못하였으며, 온도는 이상상태 때 급상승하는 경향을 보였다. 토크 값과 온도의 변화가 미캐니컬 씰의 고장에 대한 장기적 감시인자로 적절하다고 생각되며, 미캐니컬 씰의 순간적인 이상상태를 확인하거나 미캐니컬 씰의 운동상태를 인지하는 데는 실효치 전압 상태의 음향방출 신호가 적당하다고 생각된다. 온도는 이상상태 감시 시스템에서 시스템의 신뢰도를 증진시키는 병렬요소로써 활용될 수 있을 것이다.장 큰 결합활성도(binding activity)를 나타내며, 또한 Hyphantria cunea와 같은 나비목의 다른 종의 lipophorin도 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 리포포린에 결합하는 수용체의 구조적 또는 기능적 요소는 같은 목내의 종간에 보존되는 것으로 생각된다.과 성충의 생존율은 온도에 따른 계통간 차이는 없었다. 내적자연증가율( $r_{m}$ )은 S계통이 $R_{L}$, $R_{F}$계통보다 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 낮았지만 2$0^{\circ}C$와 3$0^{\circ}C$에서는 높았다. 특히 3$0^{\circ}C$에서는 S계통이 현저히 높았다. 결론적으로 dicofol 저항성계통( $R_{L}$, $R_{F}$)은 저온(2$0^{\circ}C$)과 고온(3$0^{\circ}C$)에서 감수성계통에 비해 생물학적 적응력이 떨어질 것으로 생각된다.력이 떨어질 것으로 생각된다.력이 떨어질 것으로 생각된다.해도 될 것이다. 쐐기 투과율을 정하는 위치가 d$_{max}$ 나 공기중이라면 민조사변에 대한 출력계수를 적용할 수 있지만 다른 깊이에서는 쐐기필터 각각에 대한 출력계수를 또는 조사면크기에 따른 쐐기투과율을 적용해야 할 것이다. 39.2%가 이유 설명 후 사주지 않는 것으로 나타났으며 23.2%가 다음으로 미룬다, 무조건
