This study developed Fiber/Particle Hybrid MMCs and analyzed their mechanical properties. Using $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3f$ and $\textrm{Al}_2\textrm{O}_3p$ with the fiber to particle ratio of 1:1, 1:3, 1:5 hybrid preform and MMCs are fabricated. For the analysis of the mechanical properties, three point bending tests were preformed for the preform and tensile test for the MMCs. The experimental results show that the hybrid MMCs can be successfully fabricated using the equipment of fiber preform fabrication system and squeeze casting method. And as the amount of particle in hybrid MMCs increases, the tensile strength, elastic modulus and the volume fraction of reinforcement increases.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of breads manufactured with xylito1. Four different concentrations(0, 5, 7, and 10%) of xylitol were added to the bread-making flour. Volume, color, the visco-elastic properties of the dough, and bread texture were analyzed. The dough volumes of the xylitol treatments during fermentation, as well as the final volumes of the xylitol breads were lower than those of the control dough and bread. Onset temperature slightly increased with the xylitol concentration, but entalphy changed minimally. Finally, the hardness of the bread positively increased with the xylitol concentration.

Micro-tensile testing system, consisting of a micro tensile loading system and micro-ESPI(Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) system, has been developed for measurement of micro-tensile properties of thin micro-materials. Micro-tensile loading system had a load cell with the maximum capacity of 50N and micro actuator with resolution of 4.5nm in stroke. The system was used to apply a tensile load to the micro-sized specimen. During tensile loading, the micro-ESPI system acquired interferornetric speckle patterns in the deformed specimen and measured the in-plane tensile strain. The ESPI system consisted of a CCD-camera with a lens and the window-based program developed for this experiment. Using this system, stress-strain curves for 4 kinds of electrolytic copper foil 18$\square$m thick were obtained. From these curves, tensile properties, including the elastic modulus. yielding strength and tensile strength, were determined and also values of the plastic exponent and coefficient based on Ramberg-Osgood relationship were evaluated.

In this paper, fabrication techniques for nanoscale metallic nanobeam specimens have been proposed, and mechanical properties of the fabricated gold nanobeams have been evaluated by nanoindentation techniques and nanobeam bending test. Elastic modulus and hardness of gold nanobeams were measured to be $109.6\;{\pm}\;10\;GPa\;and\;1.73\;{\pm}\;0.3\;GPa$, respectively, from the nanoindentation test, while elastic modulus was $241\;{\pm}\;7\;GPa$ from the nanobeam bending test.

The main objective of this article is the exploitation of a stochastic hybrid mesh-free method based on stochastic generalized finite difference (SGFD), Newmark finite difference (NFD) methods and Monte Carlo simulation for thermoelastic wave propagation and coupled thermoelasticity analysis based on GN theory (without energy dissipation). A thick hollow cylinder with Gaussian uncertainty in mechanical properties is considered as an analyzed domain for the problem. The effects of uncertainty in mechanical properties with various coefficients of variations on thermo-elastic wave propagation are studied in details. Also, the time histories and distribution on thickness of cylinder of maximum, mean and variance values of temperature and radial displacement are studied for various coefficients of variations (COVs).

A numerical model for masonry is proposed by following an internal variable approach originally developed in the field of elastic-plastic analysis. The general features of the theoretical framework are discussed by focussing on finite element models applicable to incremental elastic-plastic problems. An extremum property is derived and its implications in terms of convergence for convenient algorithms are briefly discussed, by including the case of softening materials and damage effects. Next, a numerical model is presented, which is suitable for masonry, can be developed according to the same internal variable formulation and enjoys similar properties. Some numerical results are presented and compared with the response of a masonry shear wall subjected to pseudodynamic tests.

Nickel thin film is one of the most important materials used in micromachined structure. To measure the mechanical properties of electroplated nickel thin film, two techniques are adopted and compared quantitatively with. One is nano-indentation test to measure the elastic modulus. The other is tensile test to measure not only elastic modulus but also yield strength and plastic deformation, ultimate strength. To perform the tensile test, the test apparatus was constructed with linear guided servo motor for actuation, load cell for force measurement and dual microscope for strain measurement.

Computer-aided high frequency ultrasonic is applied to aluminum oxide(85w%, 94w%, 96w%, and 99w%) MOR(modulus of rupture) samples to evaluate mechanical properties such as density variation, pore content, elastic modulus, shear modulus, and poisson's ratio. Ultrasonic wave velocity and attenuation measurement techniques were used as an evaluator of such properties. Pulse-echo C-Scan images with different fate setting method using 50MHz center frequency 1 inch focal length transducer allows evaluation of density variation and pore content. Elastic modulus calculated with the relation of density and ultrasonic velocity. It shows good reliability as compared with resonance method. Sintered density variation of $0.025g/cm^{3}$, that is 0.6% of theoretical density in $Al_{2}O_{3}$ samples can be observed by ultrasonic velocity measurement. Attenuation measurement method qualitatively agree with 4-point fracture testing result concerning of porosity content.

A finite element formulation to predict the flexural behavior of composite girder is presented in which the early-age properties of concrete are specified including maturing of elastic modulus, creep and shrinkage. The time dependent constitutive relation accounting for the early-age concrete properties is derived in an incremental format by expanding the total form of stress-strain relation by the first order Taylor series with respect to the reference time. The total potential energy of the flexural composite member is minimized to derive the time dependent finite element equilibrium equation. Numerical applications are made for the 3-span double composite steel box girders which is a composite bridge girder filled with concrete at the bottom of the steel box in the negative moment region. The numerical analysis with considering the variation of concrete elastic modulus are performed to investigate the effect of it on the early-age behavior of composite structures. The one dimensional finite element analysis results are compared with the analytical method based on the sectional analysis. Close agreement is observed among the two methods.

We have measured viscoelastic properties of fabrics in thickness direction. We assume that Maxwell model is very useful in stress relaxation of viscoelastic theories and appropriate formulas for fabric are calculated. Measurement system constitute of high precession load cell, translator and laser displacement sensor for viscoelastic properties was designed and elastic coefficients and damping coefficients were measured for 10 fabric samples. Elastic coefficients measured were 19~25 kN/㎡ and Damping coefficients measured were 4.8~8.7 MN$.$s/㎡. We concluded that these coefficients are good related with FUKURAMI collected from KESF system
