  • This study investigates thermal deformation due to fan shape of a hair dryer. In this study, thermal analysis showed that the shape of an electric fan results in lower temperature than that of a sieve frame. Among the shapes of electric fans, the temperature change decreases as the number of wings decreases. As a result of thermal deformation, model 4 (sieve frame shape) showed increased change of deformation compared to models 1, 2, and 3 (with electric fan shapes). Thus, the model 1 dryer with the sieve frame shape is shown to have the least durability among models 1, 2, 3, and 4. It is thought that the analysis results of this study can be applied to durability improvement and safer design of hair dryers.

  • Electrochromic tungsten oxide films were prepared by the electron beam deposition, and the dependence of the electrochemical stability and the optical properties on the titanium concentration, and on the annealing temperature, that was investigated. coloring and bleaching experiments were repeated by cyclic voltammetry in a propylene carbonate solution of LiClO4. Spectrometry was used to assess the stability of the transmittance in the degraded films. Tungsten oxide films with titanium contents of about 10~15 mol% were found to be most stable, undergoing the least degradation during the repeated for coloring and bleaching cycles. The reason for this small amount of degradation was the reduction of lithium ion trapping sites in the films, which results in an increased durability. Tungsten oxide films with titanium contents of about 20 mol% were annealed at 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, and this results showed that durability of films were increased.

  • During recent years the durability of concrete structures has attracted considerable interest in concrete practice, material research and long-term deformation. To preserve the brittleness of concrete as well as energy absorption and impact resistance, amount of fiber usage has greatly increased year to year in the field of public works. When fly ash, fine powder, mixed into concrete, it condensed the void of concrete structure. Expecially, there's a great effect for strength improvement of concrete by initial pozzolanic reactions. Pozzolan reaction, between cement particle and fly ash, can elaborate the micro structure of matrix. So it was able to improve the effect of fiber reinforced by increased adhesion between cement paste and steel fiber. And so, in this paper, we dealt SFRC for the purpose of efficiently using of industrial by-products and its economical manufacturing. Also we performed the test for durability such as chemical resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and accelerated carbonation of SFRC using fly ash.

  • In order to traffic safety during winter season, snowfall and cold area has been spread the deicing chemicals, and the spraying amount is increasing every year. Use of deicing chemicals has been and will continue to be a major part of highway snow and ice control methods. Chloride-containing chemicals such as calcium chloride or rock salt are main deicers for the road. Extensive use of chloride deicers is, however, the source of substantial cost penalties due to their corrosive action and acceleration to deterioration concrete structures. Deterioration due to de-icer salt occurs in practice in concrete pavement, dike, barrier and similar structure. This paper reports the results of effect of de-icer salt on durability of concrete structure in winter. To protect concrete structure from damage by de-icer salt in winter, the exposure test was performed using three methods such as increase in design strength upto 32MPa application of granulated blast furnace slag powder, and concrete sealer. Of these, the method of increase in design strength upto 32MPa showed better durability for deterioration by de-icer salt.

  • During recent years, the durability of concrete structures has been considered in concret practice and material research. To preserve the brittleness of concrete as well as energy absorption and impact resistance, amount of fiber usage has greatly increased in the field of public works. Ultra fine powder, silica fume, mixed into concrete, it reduce void of concrete structure. Especially, there's a great effect for strength improvement of concrete by initial pozzolanic reactions. For these reasons, if silica fume mixed into concrete, it decrease the total void by microfilter effect . Pozzolan reaction, between cement particle and silica powder, can elaborate the micro structure of matrix. And so, in this paper, we deal SFRC for the purpose of efficiently using of industrial by-products(silica fume). Also we performed the test for durability such as freeze-thaw resistance and accelerated carbonation of SFRC using silica fume.

  • The new suspension, called ISU(In-arm suspension system) was developed for Infantry Fighting Vehicle. During vehicle field test, early failure of ISU's sealing system was occurred after driving the paved road. From the failure analysis, ISU's displacement data was obtained. In analysis of PSD data, track induced vibration which has high frequency and small amplitude characteristics, was dominant. Such track vibration would result in early seal failure because of friction increase and lack of lubrication. To simulate track vibration environment in laboratory, seals were tested under the condition of 20Hz, ${\pm}1$, ${\pm}2mm$ amplitude. The same type of seal failure occurred in vehicle test, was reproduced in the lab test under ${\pm}1mm$ amplitude. From the test results, the durability of improved seal was increased by 2.5 times compared with the previous one.

  • In recent years, the development of fuel cell vehicles has further accelerated because of environmental problem and petroleum resources shortage. The fuel cell vehicles have the stack which converts fuel to electricity. The stack is usually mounted by bush to isolate the vibration of chassis and body. This paper analyzed the vibratory characteristics of stack and chassis, body system. The wheel forces of fuel cell vehicle are measured to estimate the road load data. And the paths of vibration from wheel to stack are analyzed by CAE. According to the test and CAE results, the improvement of stack vibration are evaluated.

  • The Durability of Concrete Structure is serverely degraded due to mainly carbonation, sulfate attack and chloride ion diffusion in concrete. The ultimate purpose of this study is to obtain how much the durability of Concrete Structure is improved according to the variation of physical properties in concrete or the frequency of surface coating on concrete. Where, variation of physical properties is a water-cement ratio or amount of air. The experiments are the chliride ion diffusion test, the lapid corrosion test, the lapid carbonation test, the test on resistance to freezing and thawing. Finally, this study shows that the effect by the surface coating method is better than the variation of physical properties in concrete.

  • In this paper, the optimum design of tire sidewall contour consisted of double plies for improving automobile maneuverability and tire durability is considered and a GUI program is developed for the purpose of the practical design. Each improvement of maneuverability and durability depends on the cord tension and strain energy distribution of tire sidewall. Satisfing trade-off method, which requires the judgment of aspiration levels, is used for the multi-objective optimization problem. Also, this paper presents the application to the practical sidewall contour design with the GUI program developed using visual Fortran.

  • Cotton fabric was treated with TiO$_2$-PEG600 mixed solution by pad-dry-cure and wet-fixation process to improve the performance properties as well as antibiosis effect and its laundering durability. In this paper, the effects of concentration of $TiO_2/PEG$ and fixation process were investigated on laundering durability and properties of cotton fabric treated with glyoxal. As the concentration of $TiO_2/PEG$ increased fixation, W.I., K/S of treated cotton fabric increased. Application of wet-fixation method provided a further improvement in fixation, laundering durability of treated cotton fabric.
