This paper presented a actual conditions on a false-tripping of ELB(Earth Leakage Breakers) and an assessment of the harmonics due to non-linear electronic equipment such as personal computers, rectifier, electric furnace and test equipments in factory electrical installation. Actual conditions on a failure of ELB were surveyed and analyzed by making up a question to safety managers of factory electrical installation. Also, power quality measurements such as harmonic currents, voltage and current waveform and current imbalance were made at various factory electrical installation where nuisance tripping of ELB is often occurred. The results of this study can be used in making decisions regarding cause of ELB trip and operating and tripping characteristics test of ELB when subjected to distorted current waveform.

10cm-diameter Si(100)∥$1.3\mu\textrm{m}$-X$1.3_2$X$1.3\mu\textrm{m}$-$SiO_2$∥Si(100) afers were prepared using a fast linear annealing (FLA) equipment. 1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$-thick $SiO_2$ films were grown by dry oxidation process. After cleaning and premating the wafers in a class 100 clean room, they were heat treated using with the FLA and conventional electric furnace. Bonded area and bond strength of wafer pairs were measured using a infrared (IR) camera and razor blade crack opening method, respectively. It was confinmed that the bonded area by FLA was around 99% and the bond strength value reached 2172mJ/$\m^2$, which is equivalent to theoritical bond strength. Our result implies that thick $SiO_2$ SOI may be prepared more easily by using $SiO_2$$SiO_2$ bonding interfaces then those of Si/$SiO_2$'s.

For large scaled solar cells and photosensors CdS thin films of $2{\mu}m$ thickness have deposited on ITO glass substrate by chemical bath deposition methode in $300^{\circ}C$ electric furnace. The surface roughness and resistance of cadmium sulphide(CdS) thin films with different microstructures and morphologies was investigated by using a x-ray diffraction (XRD), a scanning electron microscope (SEM), an atomic force microscope (AFM), and a near-field scanning microwave microscope (NFMM). As the different substrate heat temperatures, the microwave reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ and intensity of the (002) diffraction peak was changed, and the surface morphology also has shown differently.

CdSe single crystal was grown by sublimation method in the two-step vertical electric furnace. This CdSe single crustal had hexagonal structure whose lattice constants of $a_0$ and $c_0$ were measured $4.299\;{\AA}$ and $7.009\;{\AA}$ by extrapolation method, respectively. CdSe single crystal was n-type semiconductor values were measured from Hall data by Van der Pauw method in the room temperature. Mobility tends to increase in proportion to $T^{3/2}$ from 33K to 130K due to impurity scattering. but mobility tends to decrease in proprtion to $T^{-3/2}$ from 130K to 293K due to lattice scattering. CdSe thin film was made by electron beam evaporation technique had also hexagonal structure. The grain size of this thin film was grown to $1{\mu}m$ as a result of annealing in the vapor of Ar or Cd. Annealde CdSe thin film was n-type semiconductor whose carrier density had about $7{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$ and its mobility had about $1.6{\times}10^3cm^2/V$ sec at room temperature.

Coating brittle intermetallic compounds on metal can enlarge the range of their use. It is found that intermetallic compound coating layers made by only combustion synthesis in an electric furnace have porous multi-phase structures containing several intermediate phases, even though the coating layers show good wear resistance. In this study, dense $Ni_{3}Al$ single phase layer corresponding to the initial composition of the mixed powder is coated on two different ferrous materials by the diffusing treatment after combustion synthesis. After- ward, sliding wear behaviors of the coating layer are evaluated in comparison with that of the coating layer with porous multi-phase structure made by only combustion synthesis. As a result, the wear properties of the coating layer composed of dense $Ni_{3}Al$ single phase are considerably improved at the range of low sliding speed com- pared with that of the coating layer with porous multi-phase structure, particularly in the running-in wear region. This is attributed to the fact that wear of the coating layer is progressed by shearing as a sequence of adhesion, not by occurring of pitting on the worn surface due to having dense structure without pores.

2,5-dimethoxy-2,5-dihydrofurfuryl alcohol was electrosynthesized from furfuryl alcohol in methanol solution by using three kinds of metal oxide anode. The electrods were prepared by the following process : Thin layer of semiconducting material such as tin(IV)oxide and antimony(III)oxide was made on the titanium base metal in an electric furnace. The titanium metal block with the layer was coated with ${\alpha}-PbO_2$, ${\beta}-PbO_2$, and $MnO_2$ in each electrolytes by anodic deposition, respectively. The lead dioxide electrodes showed better anti-corrosive property than the manganase dioxide electrode. The yield of the product was 92% which is almost the same as the one with conventional platinum electrodes.

Steel and concrete composite structures are commonly applied in multi-story buildings as they maximise the material strength through composite action. Despite the popularity of employing a trapezoidal deck slab, limited experimental data are available under elevated temperatures. The behaviour of the headed shear stud embedded in a transverse trapezoidal deck and solid slab was investigated at both ambient and fire conditions. Twelve push-out tests were conducted according to the ISO 834 standard fire utilising a customised electric furnace. A stud shearing failure was observed in the solid slab specimen, whereas the failure mode was changed from a concrete-dominated failure to the stud shearing in the transverse deck specimen with an increase in temperature. Comparisons between the experimental observations and design requirements are presented. The Eurocode design guidance on the transverse deck slab gives a highly conservative estimate for shear resistance. A new design formula was proposed to determine the capacity of the shear connection regardless of the slab type when the stud shearing occurs at high temperatures.

In this study, strain-controlled low cycle fatigue test for hot rolled STS304 steel was carried out at $400^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$, respectively. High temperature fatigue test was done using an electric furnace attached on the hydraulic fatigue test machine. The results of this study show that STS304 hot rolled steel has excellent static strength and fatigue characteristics. The hysteresis loop at half life was obtained in order to calculate the elastic and plastic strain. Also, Relationship between strain amplitude and fatigue life was examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of STS304 steel by Coffin-Manson equation.

Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) were dissolved in distilled water and stirred for 30 min. The resulting solution was sonicated by an ultrasonic wave for 45 min. This solution was washed with distilled water and ethanol after centrifugation; next, it was placed in an electric furnace at 200℃ for 1 h under the flow of Ar gas to obtain zinc oxide nanoparticle. A zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite was synthesized using the zinc oxide nanoparticle solution, C60-saturated toluene, and isopropyl alcohol via the liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation method. The zinc oxide nanoparticle and zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy, and they were used for the catalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) under ultraviolet (at 254 and 365 nm) and ultrasonic irradiation. In addition, the catalytic degradation of MO over the zinc oxide nanoparticle and zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite was evaluated using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy.

To evaluate the performance of concrete load bearing walls in a structure under horizontal loads after being exposed to real fire, two steps were followed. In the first step, an experimental study was performed on the thermo-mechanical properties of concrete after heating to temperatures of 200-1000℃ with the purpose of determining the residual mechanical properties after cooling. The temperature was increased in line with natural fire curve in an electric furnace. The peak temperature was maintained for a period of 1.5 hour and then allowed to cool gradually in air at room temperature. All specimens were made from calcareous aggregate to be used for determining the residual properties: compressive strength, static and dynamic elasticity modulus by means of UPV test, including the mass loss. The concrete residual compressive strength and elastic modulus values were compared with those calculated from Eurocode and other analytical models from other studies, and were found to be satisfactory. In the second step, experimental analysis results were then implemented into structural numerical analysis to predict the post-fire load-bearing capacity response of the walls under vertical and horizontal loads. The parameters considered in this analysis were the effective height, the thickness of the wall, various support conditions and the residual strength of concrete. The results indicate that fire damage does not significantly affect the lateral capacity and stiffness of reinforced walls for temperature fires up to 400℃.
