Massive broadcasting contents such as UHD(Ultra High Definition) TV which requires multi-channel capacity for transmission has been introduced in recent years. A transmission scheme with channel bonding has been considered for transmission of massive broadcasting contents. In HFC(Hybrid Fiber Coaxial) networks, DOCSIS 3.0(Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification 3.0) has already applied channel bonding schemes for up/downstream of data service. A method unlike DOCSIS 3.0 is required to introduce a channel bonding scheme in the broadcasting service having unidirectional transmission with a downstream. Since a massive broadcasting content requires several channels for transmission, VBR(Variable Bit Rate) transmission has been emerging for the bandwidth efficiency. In addition, research on channel allocation and resource scheduling is required to guarantee QoS(Quality of Service) for the broadcasting service based on VBR. In this paper, we propose a transmission method for mass broadcasting service in HFC network and show the UHD transmission simulator developed to evaluate the performance. In order to evaluate the performance, we define various scenarios. Using the simulator, we assess the possibility of channel bonding and VBR transmission for UHD broadcasting system to provide mass broadcasting service efficiently. The developed simulator is expected to contribute to the efficient transmission system development of mass broadcasting service.

In the existing research paper, we developed Mechanical Pressurizing Equipment(MPE) that can apply a certain amount of pressure and found out about improving the bonding strength of repair materials constructed in the repair section, and if pressurized, the bonding strength could be increased. In this study, the pressure of Mechanical Pressurizing Equipment(MPE) was changed to 0, 10, 30, 50, and 80 kPa, and the test was conducted to select effective pressure by measuring the flexural, compressive, and bonding strength of the specimens and deformation of the pressure plate at the age of 3 and 28th days. As a result of the test, 30 kPa was the most efficient pressure for the MPE. After producing the specimen with three types of repair materials with different main components, the bonding strength was measured according to dry and wet conditions, construction site (ceiling, wall and floor), and whether or not pressurized, on the 3rd, 7th, 14th, and 28th, indicating that the repair materials mixed with cellulose fiber was most effective for the MPE.

Aluminum alloy matrix composites reinforced with various amounts of $Al_2O_3$ short fibers have been produced by a combined technique of rheo-compocasting and hot extrusion. Distribution of fibers in the composites fabricated by rheo-compocasting was relatively uniform. A good degree of uniaxial fiber alignment has been achieved by hot extrusion, but a lot of fibers fractured during extrusion. The tendency of fiber fracturing increases as the aspect ratio and the amount of fibers increase. Relatively good bonding between fiber and matrix was obtained by the formation of $MgAl_2O_4$ and Mg(Al, Fe)$_2O_4$ at the interface between fiber and matrix. In extruded composites, fiber-strengthening effect was relatively small since a lot of fibers fractured during hot extrusion. On the other hand, dispersion strengthening effect may increase. In order to improve the fiber strengthening effect, it is important to optimize the extrusion condition with consideration of metal flow in extrusion die.

This paper describes 250-Mb/s fiber optic transmitter and receiver ICs for plastic optical fiber applications using a$ 0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. Simple signal and light detection schemes are introduced for power reduction in sleep mode. The transmitter converts non-return-to-zero digital data into 650-nm visible-red light signal and the receiver recovers the digital data from the incident light signal through up to 50-m plastic optical fiber. The transmitter and receiver ICs occupy only 0.62 $mm^2$ of area including electrostatic discharge protection diodes and bonding pads. The transmitter IC consumes 23 mA with 20 mA of LED driving currents, and the receiver IC consumes 16 mA with 4 mA of output driving currents at 250 Mb/s of data rate from a 3.3-V supply in active mode. In sleep mode, the transmitter and receiver ICs consume only 25 ${\mu}A$ and 40 ${\mu}A$, respectively.

Carbon fiber sheet has been used to rehabilitate many types of reinforced concrete members with its superior characteristics such as their lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and easy execution. But the failure behavior of reinforced concrete members show a high variation by the bond characteristics between carbon fiber sheet and concrete surface. In this study, a bond stress-slip model, which accounts for changes in bonding behavior between concrete and carbon fiber sheet with some link elements, is proposed. The link elements are used to represent the concrete-carbon fiber sheet interface. To investigate the efficiency of this method, the analytical solutions for the behavior of reinforced concrete beam strengthened with carbon fiber sheet are compared with experimental ones. Results from the proposed model comparatively well agree with the experimental results.

One of the principal problems encountered in the use of fiber reinforced composites is to establish an active fiber surface to achieve maximum adhesion between resin and fiber surface. In order to improve the interface bonding, the surface of glass fiber should be treated with silane coupling agent in ordinary composite manufacturing processes. However, the price of the coupling agent is very high and in the treating process voids are formed, which decreasees electrical and mechanical strength. We want to develope new process that will overcome the disadvantage of the coupling agent and achieve maximum adhesion at the interface between resin and fiber by active plasma treatment on the glass fiber surface. In this study, we investigate the improvement of contact angle on the glass plate surface as the first step in developing new GFRP.

In this study, we prepared glass fiber reinforced polypropylene composites using Brabender twin-screw extruder. Compatibilizer, polypropylene-based maleic anhydride (PP-g-MAH), was used to increase the molecular interaction between polypropylene matrix and glass fiber and to enhance melt processability. We also measured the shear and uniaxial elongational behaviors of glass-fiber reinforced composites in the absence or presence of compatibilizer. The effects of compatibilizer and fiber loading on the viscoelastic behaviors were examined. It was fuund that the PP-g-MAH compatibilizer improved the fluidity and increased the molecular bonding of composite melts in shear flow. Transient elongational viscosity was increased with fiber loadings in uniaxial elongational flow However, it was decreased with increasing elongational rates because of microscale shear flow between fibers.

Development of smart construction materials with both self-strain and self-damage sensing capacities is still difficult because of little information about the self-damage sensing source. Herein, we investigate the effects of the matrix strength, fiber geometry, and fiber content on the electrical resistivity of steel-fiber-reinforced cement composites by multi-fiber pullout testing combined with electrical resistivity measurements. The results reveal that the electrical resistivity of steel-fiber-reinforced cement composites clearly decreased during fiber-matrix debonding. A higher fiber-matrix interfacial bonding generally leads to a higher reduction in the electrical resistivity of the composite during fiber debonding due to the change in high electrical resistivity phase at the fiber-matrix interface. Higher matrix strengths, brass-coated steel fibers, and deformed steel fibers generally produced higher interfacial bond strengths and, consequently, a greater reduction in electrical resistivity during fiber debonding.

The use of advanced composite materials in strengthening and repair of existing structures is increasing rapidly. This paper describes an effectiveness of a bonding of carbon fiber reinforced sheets to corroded steel members for the repair. Three types of surface treatment, what we call cleaning, of corroded plate are chosen as parameters. They are "without cleaning","removal of painting by brushing" and "complete removal of painting". From the experimental study, the following findings are obtained. 1) When the steel plate is subjected to tensile force, carbon fiber sheets adhered to the painted steel gives a higher strength against peeling compared to that of the plate without painting, 2) The grade of surface treatment, or cleaning of the corroded steel plate affects the strengthening effect.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of temperature on the results of Charpy impact test for glass fiber reinforced polyurethane(GF/PUR) composites. The Charpy impact test were conducted in the temperature range from -50$^{\circ}$ to 50$^{\circ}$. The impact fracture toughness of GF/PUR composites was considerably affected by temperature and it was shown that the maximum value was appeared at room temperature. It is believed that sensitivity of notch on impact fracture energy were increased with decrease in temperature of specimen. As the GF/PUR composites exposed in low temperature, impact fracture toughness of composites decreased gradually owing to the decrease of interface bonding strength caused by difference of thermal expansion coefficient between the glass fiber/polyurethane resin. And decrease of interface bonding strength of composites with decrease in specimen temperature was ascertained by SEM photographs of Charpy impact fracture surface.
