Agarose hydrogel, a solid electrolyte, was investigated voltammetrically in terms of transport properties and natural convection effects using a ferrocenyl compound as a redox probe. To confirm the diffusion properties of solute on the agarose interface, the diffusion coefficients (D) of ferrocenemethanol in agarose hydrogel were determined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) according to the concentration of agarose hydrogel. While the value of D on the agarose interface is smaller than that in the bulk solution, the square root of the scan rate-dependent peak current reveals that the mass transport behavior of the solute on the agarose surface shows negligible convection or migration effects. In order to confirm the reduced natural convection on the gel interface, scan rate-dependent CV was performed in the solution phase and on the agarose surface, respectively. Slow scan voltammetry at the gel interface can determine a conventional and reproducible diffusion-controlled current down to a scan rate of 0.3 mV/s without any complicated equipment.

Under longitudinal loading continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composite(MMC) have interpreted an outstanding performance. However, the applicability of continuous fiber reinforced MMCs is somewhat limited due to their relatively poor transverse properties. Therefore, the transverse properties of MMCs are significantly influenced by the properties of the fiber/matrix interface. In this study, elastic-plastic behavior of transversely loaded unidirectional fiber reinforced metal matrix composites investigated by using elastic-plastic finite element analysis. Different fiber placement(square and hexagon) and fiber volume fractions were studied numerically. The interface was treated as three thin layer (with different properties) with a finite thickness between the fiber and the matrix. The analyses were based on a two-dimensional generalized plane strain model of a cross-section of an unidirectional composite by the ANSYS finite element analysis code.

The strong continuous fiber reinforced metal matrix composites (MMCs) are recently used in aerospace and transportation applications as an advanced material due to its high strength and light weight. Unidirectional fiber-metal matrix composites have superior mechanical properties along the longitudinal direction. However, the applicability of continuous fiber reinforced MMCs is somewhat limited due to their relatively poor transverse properties. Therefore, the transverse properties of MMCs are significantly influenced by the properties of the fiber/matrix interface. In order to be able to utilize these MMCs effectively and with safety, it must be determined their elastic plastic behaviors at the interface. In this study, the interfacial stress states of transversely loaded unidirectional fiber reinforced metal matrix composites investigated by using elastic-plastic finite element analysis. Different fiber volume fractions $(5-60\%)$ were studied numerically. The interlace was treated as three thin layer (with different properties) with a finite thickness between the fiber and the matrix. The fiber is modeled as transversely isotropic linear-elastic, and the matrix as isotropic elastic-plastic material. Using proposed model, the effects of the interface region and fiber arrangement in MMCs on the distributions of stress and strain are evaluated. The stress distributions of a thin multi layer interface have much less changes compared with conventional perfect interface. The analyses were based on a two-dimensional generalized plane strain model of a cross-section of an unidirectional composite by the ANSYS finite element analysis code.

In this paper, we have evaluated temperature, electric field, Pressure dependency and dielectric properties of EPDM XLPE and EPDM/XLPE\`s interface. Temperature dependency of EPDM had great influence with dielectric properties, but pressure and applied voltage of EPDM had no effect on dielectric properties. Dielectric properties of XLPE were influenced by not only temperature but also pressure and applied voltage. We knowed that dielectric properties of EPDM/XLPE were trended toward tendency of those of EPDM

In this paper, the skewness properties of partial discharge at interface layer in mica-epoxy composite material were investigated and studied on interface specimens which has internal electrodes. As a result, it has been confirmed that the interface exists as abnormal resin layer and the contact condition at the interface is depended upon the density of si lane aqueous solution. The Pulse frequency of discharge at abnormal interface has been shown a linear increasing with enlargement of discharge quantity according to rising of the applied voltage. Whereas, in case of normal interface, pulse frequency represented exponential increasing at the saturating point of discharge quantity. The aging model can be represented from the variable characteristics of skewness.

This paper suggests a data modeling scheme of human interface elements and their properties for consumer electronic products. The human interface elements were classified into three categories: individual, interaction and integration interface. The representative properties of each interface element were identified, and modeled by using the object-oriented technique. The results of this study are expected to be used for expressing the user interface of consumer electronic products. They are also expected to help understand the relationship between the usability and the user interface elements of a product.

In this research, n-based 4H-MOS Capacitor was fabricated with PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) process for improving SiC/$SiO_2$ interface properties known as main problem of 4H-SiC MOSFET. To overcome the problems of dry oxidation process such as lower growth rate, high interface trap density and low critical electric field of $SiO_2$, PECVD and NO annealing processes are used to MOS Capacitor fabrication. After fabrication, MOS Capacitor's interface properties were measured and evaluated by hi-lo C-V measure, I-V measure and SIMS. As a result of comparing the interface properties with the dry oxidation case, improved interface and oxide properties such as 20% reduced flatband voltage shift, 25% reduced effective oxide charge density, increased oxide breakdown field of 8MV/cm and best effective barrier height of 1.57eV, 69.05% reduced interface trap density in the range of 0.375~0.495eV under the conduction band are observed.

Mechanical properties of steel-concrete interface were evaluated on the basis of experimental observations. The properties included bond strength, unbounded and bonded friction angles, residual level of friction angle, mode I fracture energy, mode II bonded fracture energy and unbonded slip-friction energy under different levels of normal stress, and shape parameters to define geometrical shape of failure envelope. For this purpose, a typical type of constitutive model of describing steel-concrete interface behavior was presented based on a hyperbolic three-parameter Mohr-Coulomb type failure criterion. The constitutive model depicts the strong dependency of interface behavior on bonding condition of interface, bonded or unbounded. Values of the interface parameters were determined through interpretation of experimental results, geometry of failure envelope and sensitivity analysis. Nonlinear finite element analysis that incorporates steel-concrete interface as well as material nonlinearities of concrete and steel were performed to predict the experimental results.

The interfacial zone in concrete materials is extensive, geometrically complex, and constitutes inherently weak zones that limit the concrete performance. Motar-aggregate interfaces play a major role in the fracture processing in concrete composites. Also, the interfacial bond considerably influence mechanical properties of concrete such as modulus of elasticity, strength, and fracture energy, Characterization of the interfacial properties is, therefore, essential to overcome the limitations associated with the interfaces. an objective of this paper is to investigate the corelationship between the fracture toughness of mortar-aggregate interface and the concrete properties such as strengths and elastic moduli. It is observed from the test results that interface fracture toughness is closely related with the compressive strength rather than other properties. At early ages, the development of both tensile strength and elastic modulus are much greater thatn that of both interface fracture toughness and compressive strength.
