This paper presents the results of an investigation on the ways of utilizing bed sediment as levee materials by laboratory tests. A series of laboratory tests were performed to asses the improved engineering characteristics of bed sediment using admixture cement and weathered granite soils. In this study, several tests such as the grain size analysis test, direct shear test, permeability test, unconfined compression test were peformed. The results of the analyses indicated that the treated bed sediment with cement and weathered granite soils can have the adaptability to the fill material for levee.

This paper presents a mathematical model for optimizing earthwork allocation plan that minimizes earthwork cost. The model takes into account operational constraints in the real-world earthwork such as material-type (i.e., quality level of material) and quantities excavated from cut-sections, required quality of material and quantities for each embankment layer, top-down cutting and bottom-up filling constraints, and allocation orders. These constraints are successfully handled by assuming the rock-earth material as the three dimensional (3D) blocks. The study is of value to project scheduler because the model identifies the optimal earth allocation plan (i.e., haul direction (cut and fill pairs), quantities of soil, type of material, and order of allocations) expeditiously and is developed as an automated system for usability. It is also relevant to estimator in that it computes more realistic earthworks costs estimation. The economic impact and validity of the mathematical model was confirmed by performing test cases.

This paper aims to fill the technical gap on the elastic buckling behavior of functionally graded material (FGM) grid systems under inplane loads on which few research has been done. Material properties of an FG beam are assumed to vary smoothly in the thickness direction according to power and exponential laws. Based on a hybrid-stress finite element formulation, buckling solutions for FGM grid systems consisting of various aspect ratios and material gradation are provided. The numerical results demonstrate that the aspect ratio and material gradation play an important role in the buckling behavior of FGM grid systems. We believe that the new results obtained from this study, will be very useful to designers and researchers in this field.

This paper presents results of research performed to identify optimum mix proportions for production of flowable fill with high volume fly ash content. The fly ash used in this study met the requirements of KS L 5405 and ASTM C 618 for Class F material. Tests were carried out on concrete designed to have 10 ~ 15kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compressive strength at the 28-day age with fly ash contents of approximately 280kg/㎥. Slump was held at 25$\pm$1cm for all mixtures produced compressive strengths at 28 days were found to range from 5.03 to 13.69kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

This study is on the injection molding analysis for the LED outdoor lighting top cover of one heat sink body type structure. Thermoplastic and thermosetting resins were applied to compare the thermal properties during the injection molding process. The thermoplastic resin is used in this study due to special characteristics that it is light, good strength and dose long not transmute quality even if pass long time. The thermosetting resin is applied to this study due to good in strength, lightweight and excellent etc, thermal conductivity. This study presented a preliminary analysis of fill time, weld line, air trap etc. for the injection molding process of LED lamp cover and body through simulation using Moldflow. As a result of the study, it was selected HTM-102 material because the thermosetting resin has excellent strength and heat conductivity.

This study investigates two-phase cooling system of close-loop by using FC-72 and PCM(Phase change material). The cooling system consists of evaporator, cold plate, micro pump, and condenser. The heat input on the performance of evaporator is appreciated by visualizing the boiling on the evaporator. The heat performance of cooling system is investigated to determine the effects of volume fill ratio change at working fluid, pump flow rate change, and volume fill ratio change at PCM in cold plate. Experimental results show the ideal condition when the volume ratio of working fluid, the pump flowing, and the volume ratio of PCM are 60%, 6ml/min, and 60% respectively.

Use of soils with crushed expanded polystyrene(EPS) satisfied both recycling of industrial waste and development of new light-weight fill materials. Objectives of the study were to make the mixed the mixed soils with the crushed EPS and to suggest the most rational mixing ration as a fill material. A series of laboratory tests was performed to investigate the relationship between miximum dry density and optimum moisture contenr and to find the variation of CBR for mixtures with 3 soils and 2 sizes of the crushed EPS. Results of the test showed that the sizes fo the curshed EPS had a little effect on the properties of mixed soils. But gradatiion of soils and mixing ration with the crushed EPS were important factors to characterize compaction properties of the mixed soils.

CFRD (Concrete Faced Rockfill Dam) has been world-widely constructed due to a lot of advantages compared with rockfill dam and recently, sand/gravel materials, instead of crushed rock materials, are also utilized as a main rockfill material to overcome geological and environmental problems. In this paper, the process of water infiltration into the originally unsaturated sand/gravel-fill dam is studied using two-dimensional saturated-unsaturated seepage theory. According to the results of seepage analysis, if the effective drainage zone is installed in the dam, the reservoir water infiltrate into the dam along a downward flow path towards the lower drainage area. The main body constructed with sand/gravel materials, therefore, remains unsaturated.

The electro-optical characteristics of the Liquid Crystal on Silicon (hereinafter "LCOS") micro-display on vertically alignment (VA) mode were studied with 3-dimensional LC code. 5 different cell gaps, such as 1.4 ${\mu}m$, 1.8 ${\mu}m$, 2.1 ${\mu}m$, 2.4 ${\mu}m$ and 2.8 ${\mu}m$, were selected. The reflectance-voltage (R-V) characteristics, distribution of reflected light, reflectance, optical fill factor and contrast ratio were calculated and investigated depending on various cell gaps. Due to the surface anchoring effect, higher cell gap showed higher reflectance. However, considering the optical fill factor and contrast ratio, middle-height 2.1 ${\mu}m$ showed the best electro-optical characteristic. 0.7 inch Full-HD LCOS panels having same geometry and material property were fabricated. The reflected light intensity and contrast ratio were measured and the measured results were well-matched to the calculated results.
