We have concentrated on the performance improvement of each part for durability, safety and cost of high pressure storage system for fuel cell vehicle so far. But for the mass production of fuel cell vehicle, it is necessary to evaluate durability and safety in system module. We built the standard to evaluate and collision safety of high pressure storage system for fuel cell vehicle, and could verify reliability of high pressure storage system.

This study explored physical properties of a hardened cement and a concrete specimen using a high performance cement type solidification consisting of a weathered granite soil and a yellow soil mainly. Also the development of high performance cement type solidification was purposed for an intensity improvement and a long-term durability. As the experimental results, a mortar used by the weathered granite soil shows positive result, however using the yellow soil as a mortar Shows less positive result at the compressive strength. Also the dynamic modulus of elasticity measurement result, the concrete specimens used by the weathered granite and the yellow soil reached above 90%, so it seems to have the durability of freezing and thawing.

This study analyzed automobile lower arm assembly structure and fatigue to identify configuration changes to enhance structural safety. Parts connected to the car body were fixed and 500 N load was applied at the lower arm head. Maximum equivalent stress and maximum total deformation were minimized for model 1 ( MPa and 0.10315 mm, respectively). Fatigue analysis using extreme SAE bracket history fatigue loads showed model 1 also improved fatigue life ($3.3693{\times}10^5cycles$). This study provides important inputs to improve lower arm durability by modifying the arm configuration.

The durability and water - resisting capability of nuclear concrete structures can be greatly improved as the density of concrete surface increases. Applying the surface penetration sealer to the concrete surface can increase the surface density. Therefore, the objective of this study is to identify the most suitable surface penetration sealer based on lab test. The considered parameters rate and water resistance and absorbance rate of the concrete specimen after the penetration sealer are applied. The experimental study resulted in the identification of the two most suitable surface penetration sealer based on their performance.

It is the aim of this study to introduce the performance and application of new repair system for the exterior wall by durability failure caused seasand especially. The elementary performance of this repair system is as follows (1)All the layer in the repair are cement based, same with the mother conrete (2)this repair system use SBR admixture (3)This cement and mortar powder for this repair system are premixed and ready to use just adding admixture at the job site.

The restorative materials for deteriorated concrete are estimated by various kinds of strength, carbonation, and at same time, by various deteriorate factors and others. So, it's properties must have maintained many functional properties. In this study, to improvement of durability of restorative materials, we take restorative materials with insulation performance, for deterioration by temperature exchange as deterioration factor.

Utilization of demolished-concrete as recycled aggregate has been researched for the purpose of substituting for insufficient natural aggregate, saving resources and protecting environment. There, however, are some Problems not only the large difference of dualities in recycled aggregates but also a little deterioration of mechanical properties in recycled aggregate concrete in comparison with that of natural aggregate concrete. In this study, the test results of freez and thaw durability of concrete with demolished-concrete recycled aggregate(DRA) arc as follows. Improvement of crushing process is an important assignment because that adhered mortar on source-concrete recycled aggregate(SRA) and DRA highly affects thc qualifies of recycled aggregate. The compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete was not highly different in comparison with that of control concrete. But the resistance to penetration of Cl in recycled aggregate concrete was shown smaller than that of control concrete because of adhered mortar on recycled aggregate. The resistance to frcezing and thawing of recycled aggregate concrete was highly different due to adhered mortar on recycled aggregate, and durability factor of concrete with NA-SRA and DRA was more decreased than that of control concrete. On the other hand, durability factor of concrete with AA-SRA was larger than that of control concrete. It, therefore, is necessarily required that recycled aggregate including adequate entrained air should be used for satisfying the freez and thaw durability of recycled aggregate concrete.

Porous asphalt pavement is used widely in advanced countries to reduce traffic accidents and noise. On the other hand, it is not applied widely in Korea due to concerns about its durability. This study aims to find a statistical method to improve the durability of porous asphalt pavement. A Cantabro test was selected to test the durability. The Cantabro test was performed on an asphalt mixture made of a binder and aggregate. This test was repeated three times for each of the four groups to obtain the Cantabro loss rate. The average values of each of the four groups satisfied all the reference values. In addition, through an analysis of variance (ANOVA), it was possible to quantitatively classify test groups with differences in durability, thereby finding problems and improving the durability. Furthermore, the Pay Factor method can lead to voluntary improvements in quality, and the Pay factor can be calculated through statistical analysis of limited data. Through the Pay factor, it is possible to induce definite quality improvement of the contractor and continuously improve the durability of the porous asphalt mixture by evaluating the adequacy of the quality standard.

Recently, many efforts have been made to construct the first unlined tunnel, without in-situ concrete lining, in Korea. However, the lack of reliability in the performance of shotcrete as permanent tunnel support prevented from its realization. Shotcrete has been regarded to have significant problems in field application and long term performance because of unsatisfactory strength level and durability compared to those of European countries. In this study, the high strength shotcrete satisfying compressive strength over 40 MPa and flexural strength over 4.5 MPa was developed from optimized mix design. The type of accelerators and the amount of silica fume were selected as the main factors in mixing process and the analyses were carried out up to the elapsed time of 2 years. In order to evaluate the short term durability of shotcrete, an array of laboratory test consisting of freeze-thaw, carbonation chloride penetration and permeability test was performed. For long-term durability tests, specimens have been put in an operated highway tunnel to expose them to the similar environment when they are actually used as an unlined tunnel support. From the strength and durability tests, it was found that only alkali-free based accelerator satisfied the target strength of this study and also, the developed shotcrete showed very high performance in its durability.

Microbiological calcium carbonate precipitation (MCCP) has been investigated for its ability to improve the durability of cement mortar. However, very few strains have been applied to crack remediation and strengthening of cementitious materials. In this study, we report the biodeposition of Bacillus subtilis 168 and its ability to enhance the durability of cement material. B. subtilis 168 was applied to the surface of cement specimens. The results showed a new layer of deposited organic-inorganic composites on the surface of the cement paste. In addition, the water permeability of the cement paste treated with B. subtilis 168 was lower than that of non-treated specimens. Furthermore, artificial cracks in the cement paste were completely remediated by the biodeposition of B. subtilis 168. The compressive strength of cement mortar treated with B. subtilis 168 increased by about 19.5% when compared with samples completed with only B4 medium. Taken together, these findings suggest that the biodeposition of B. subtilis 168 could be used as a sealing and coating agent to improve the strength and water resistance of concrete. This is the first paper to report the application of Bacillus subtilis 168 for its ability to improve the durability of cement mortar through calcium carbonate precipitation.
