Alumina glazed with a bioactive glass reacted in Simulated Body Fluids(SBF) to investigate the behavior of hydroxyapatite formation on the glass coat layer. Various crystalline phases were found depending on the firing temperatures when the bioactive glass coat was heat-treated. The glass coat was crystallized into ${\beta}$-wollastonite and apatite when fired at 1100$^{\circ}C$, and ${\alpha}$-wollastonite and apatite when fired at 1200$^{\circ}C$. Those samples reacted in SBF, and it is observed that hydroxyapatite developed on the surface of the crystallized glaze. Its formation was much easier in the sample with ${\alpha}$-wollastonite than with ${\beta}$-wollastonite. This is because that the ${\alpha}$-wollastonite dissolves more easily than ${\beta}$-wollastonite does in SBF.

The purpose of this study were to develop and validate a prototype slipmeter used on-site floor. The developed slipmeter was dreg sled type. It measured static coefficient of friction(SCOF). The developed slipmeter was evaluated with ASTM 2508-11 which use four different standard surfaces(polished granite, glazed porcelain, vinyl composite tile, and ceramic tile). The SCOF was then measured with developed slipmeter under the three different contaminants and seven different floors. The test results of slipmeter were also compared with those of BOT-3000, floor surface roughness, and human perception. The test results revealed that developed slipmeter successfully ranked all four standard surfaces and differentiated among standard surfaces with varying degrees of slipperiness. The developed slipmeter couldn't properly measure slipperiness under the two kind of floors(polished tile, ground steel plate) and one kind of contaminant(glycerol). The test results of developed slipmeter had stronger correlation with those of BOT-3000 and floor roughness under the water and detergent solution than under the glycerol. The test results of developed slipmeter also showed stronger correlation with those of BOT-3000 and surface roughness than those of human perception. The newly developed slipmeter had been found to give consistent results under the test conditions except for two kind of floors(polished tile, ground steel plate) and one kind of contaminant(glycerol).

This paper presents the design and construction details of a soundproof enclosure for housing 20 KVA diesel generator-set. As the generator had to be installed close to the hospital building, it was desirable to reduce the transmission of noise by housing the generator in such an enclosure. The diesel engine being an air cooled one, it was essential to supply fresh air into the enclosure for its cooling. Forced inflow of air is provided through an inlet duct located in such a way that the incoming fresh air is thrown close to the inlet of cooling fan of the engine. The high velocity air stream, which heats up while passing over the engine head, escapes to the atmosphere through a rectangular outlet duct with enlarges inlet that receives hot air from the engine. The air ducts were designed specially and have been provided with acoustic lining for sound absorption. The masonary enclosure has been provided with double glazed fixed windows and double doors. The exhaust pipe of the engine fitted with a muffler has been taken out through the enclosure wall facing away from the hospital. Acoustic performance studies conducted in terms of attenuation provided by the enclosure at different frequencies have also been presented and discussed. The noise control measures adopted for building the sound-proof enclosure have been found to be quite effective as the noise levels inside the hospital building are now within the acceptable limits.

In a tunnel, interior noise of a high speed train increases by 5dB~7dB. The reason is that the sound intensity of the acoustic field in the tunnel significantly increases by the reflected waves occurred in the closed space. Especially, the incident acoustic power largely increases on the outside of the compartment side panel and large transmission of noise is available through the side panel and the glass window. In this paper, the sound insulation strategy in the tunnel is proposed for the next generation high speed train under development. Specimens of the aluminum extruded panels, layered panels and double glazed window are manufactured and intensity transmission loss is measured according to ASTM E2249-02. Based on the measured data, problems in the sound insulation performance are diagnosed and the sound insulation strategy is reviewed on each panel and layered structures.

The properties of black ceramic pigments including thermal and glaze stability were systematically investigated so that these pigments could be used to decorate porcelain products. Various compositions of $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ and $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ powders were synthesised using a solid state reaction method. The obtained $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ powders showed single phases of spinel structure after calcination processes at $1000^{\circ}C$ and $1200^{\circ}C$, respectively. CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ colourimetric parameters of glazed $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ pigments were analyzed according to the different amounts of Cr substitution. In addition, the amount of $Cr^{+6}$ remaining in the $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ pigments was also measured.

In this work, we experimentally investigated the solar absorption performance of Cu-based scalable nanostructured surfaces and compared their performance with the conventional TiNOX. We fabricated Cu-based nanostructured surfaces with a controlled chemical oxidation process applicable to a large area or complex geometry. We optimized the process parameters including the chemical compounds, dipping time and process temperature. We conducted both lab-scale and outdoor experiments to characterize the conversion efficiency of each absorber surfaces with single and double glazing setup. Lab-scale experiment was conducted with $50mm{\times}50mm$ absorber sample with 1-sun condition (1kW/m2) using a solar simulator (PEC-L01) with measuring the temperature at the absorber plate, cover glass, air gap and ambient. From the lab-scale experiment, we obtained ${\sim}91^{\circ}C$ and $94^{\circ}C$ for CuO and TiNOX surfaces after 1 hr of solar illumination at single glazing, respectively. To measure the absorber performance at actual operating condition, outdoor experiment was also conducted using $110mm{\times}110mm$ absorber sample. We measured the solar flux with thermopile detector (919P-040-50). From outdoor experiment, we observed ${\sim}123^{\circ}C$ and $131^{\circ}C$ for CuO and TiNOX with 0.6 kW/m2 insolation at double glazing, respectively. We showed that the suggested nanostructured CuO solar absorber has near-equivalent collection efficiency compared with the state-of-the-art TiNOX surfaces even with much simpler manufacturing process that does not require an expensive equipment.

The first grid-connected, building-integrated transparent amorphous silicon photovoltaic installation has been operated since October 2004 in Yongin, Korea. The 2.2kWp transparent PV system was applied to the facade of entrance hall in newly constructed KOLON E&C R&D building. The PV module is a nominal 0.98m ${\times}$ 0.95m, 10% transparent, laminated, amorphous(a-Si) thin-film device rated at 44 Wp per module. To demonstrate the architectural features of thin film PV technologies for daylighting application, transparent PV modules are attached to the building envelope with the form of single glazed window and special point glazing(SPG) frames. Besides power generation, the 10% transmittance of a-Si PV module provides very smooth natural daylight to the entrance hall without any special shading devices for whole year. The installation is fully instrumented and is continuously monitored in order to allow the performance assessment of amorphous silicon PV operating at the prevailing conditions. This paper presents measured power performance data from the first 12 months of operation. For the first year, annual average system specific yield was just 486.4kWh/kWp/year which is almost half of typical amorphous silicon PV output under the best angle and orientation. It should be caused by building orientation and self-shading of adjacent mass. Besides annual power output, various statistical analysis was performed to identify the characteristics of transparent thin film PV system.

To develop a value-added individually quick frozen (IQF) intermediate product from cultured sea mussel Mytilus edulis, we prepared IQF half-shelled roasted sea mussels (HRM) and IQF half-shelled boiled sea mussels (HBM). The processing conditions and quality metrics of the mussels were examined. The HRM and HBM were produced by washing and removing the byssus of raw sea mussels, followed by electric roasting or boiling. The roasted or boiled sea mussels were half-shelled, lightly washed with 3% saline water, rapidly frozen for 2 hours at -35℃, glazed, and packaged with a plastic film bag. The HRM and HBM had volatile basic nitrogen contents of 11.5 and 12.6 mg/100 g, and amino nitrogen contents of 607.9 and 534.2 mg/100 g, respectively. The HRM and HBM had hardness values of 4.31 and 2.99 kg/㎠, shearing force values of 992.2 and 507.7 g, free drip values of 8.9% and 10.2%, and expressible drip values of 7.0% and 8.1%, respectively. The free amino acid contents of the HRM and HBM were 763.1 and 560.7 mg/100 g, respectively. These results demonstrate that HRM have superior qualities compared to HBM and can serve as high-end shellfish when cooked.

The crystallization behavior of a luster glaze containing ceria has been investigated. When glazed specimens were sintered at 110$0^{\circ}C$, crystalline ceria particles were preferentially precipitated with (100) planes parallel to the specimen surface with the size of around 200 nm. The particle population in the surface region was much higher than inside glaze, covering over 60% of the specimen surface area. Crystallization of the particles with preferred orientation was promoted, after the removal of internal interface through complete melting of the fit particles. The luster effect seems to result from CeO$_2$ particles of high refractive index, their strong light scattering at visible rage due to fine crystalline size 200 nm and their planar arrangement in the surface region.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal firing condition and composition for $Al_2TiO_5$ crystal, which is suitable for stable coloration in glazes at high temperatures, using $Cr_2O_3$ as chromophore for the synthesis of $Al_2TiO_5$ system pigments. $Al_2TiO_5$ has a high refractive index and good solubility of chromophore in the $Al_2TiO_5$ lattice, making this structure a good candidate for the development of new ceramic pigments. Pigments were synthesized by using $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$ mainly. Various amounts of $Cr_2O_3$ such as 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 and 0.05 mole were also added. Each compound was synthesized at $1300^{\circ}C$, $1400^{\circ}C$, and $1500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours and cooled naturally. The crystal structure, solubility limit, and color of the synthesized pigments were analyzed by XRD, SEM, Raman spectroscopy, UV and UV-vis. The changes in color as the result of applying 6 wt% of the synthesized pigments to lime barium glaze were expressed as CIE-L*a*b* values. A $Cr_2O_3$ 0.03 mole doped $Al_2TiO_5$ brown pigment was successfully synthesize at $1400^{\circ}C$, and the values of CIE-L*a*b* parameters were L* = 44.62, a* = 3.10, and b* = 17.25. In the case of the pigment synthesized at $1500^{\circ}C$, the brown color was obtained at 0.01 mole and 0.02 mole $Cr_2O_3$, and the CIE-L*a*b* values were 55.34, 1.73, 28.64, and 49.39, 0.51, 21.33, respectively. At $1500^{\circ}C$, the maximum limit of solid solution was 0.03 mole $Cr_2O_3$. The glazed sample showed green color, and the values of the CIEL* a*b* parameters were L* = 45.69, a* = -0.98, and b* = 20.38.
