  • The objective of this study is to propose a reliable mixing design procedure of concrete using artificial lightweight aggregate produced from expanded bottom ash and dredged soil. Based on test results obtained from 25 mixes, empirical equations to determine water-to-cement ratio, unit cement content, and replacement level of lightweight fine aggregates were formulated with regard to the targeted performance (compressive strength, dry density, initial slump, and air content) of lightweight aggregate concrete. From the proposed equations and absolute volume mixing concept, unit weight of each ingredient was calculated. The proposed mix design procedure limits the fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratio by considering the replacement level of lightweight fine aggregates, different to previous approach for expanded fly ash and clay-based lightweight aggregate concrete. Thus, it is expected that the proposed procedure is effectively applied for determining the first trial mixing proportions for the designed requirements of concrete.

  • As the IoT communication environment has been established, communications that utilize not only high-spec machines but also low-spec machines are increasing, but security threats are increasing, too. In recent times, a lot of papers have attempted to reduce the weight of IP layer security techniques such as IPsec and IKEv2 for low-spec machines. Typically, Smyslov proposed Lightweight IKEv2 protocol which is used in IoT environment. However, This proposed protocol had compatibility problem with IKEv2 protocol, So, It is hard to be expected to be used in IoT communication environment. Unlike the Smyslov's protocol, this paper proposed Lightweight IKEv2 protocol which can be compatible of IKEv2 protocol and applied lossless compression algorithm to payload. To suggest lightweight IKEv2 protocol, this paper analyzed IKEv2 protocol and existed lightweight IKEv2 protocol. Furthermore, This paper proved that proposed protocol is more efficient than existed lightweight IKEv2 protocol through performance evaluation as a method.

Mixing ratios were three types, the first type was mixed cement and synthetic lightweight fine aggregate (Type CP), the second type was mixed cement, synthetic lightweight fine aggregate and synthetic lightweight coarse aggregate (Type CPE), the third type was mixed cement, synthetic lightweight fine aggregate and natural coarse aggregate (Type CPN). The results of this study are summarized as follows ; 1. The W/C of each mixing ratio was increased with increase of the amount of cement used, and it was shown higher in order of Type CP, CPN, CPE. 2. The unit weight of Type CP, CPE and CPN was 1.473~1.647g/cm$^3$, 1.467~1.622g/cm$^3$ and 1.658~1 .838g/cm$^3$, respectively. And the absorption ratio was approximately 20%, which was higher than that of the normal cement concrete. 3. The compressive strength of Type CP was shown 178 ~249kg/cm2, Type CPE was shown 149~241kg/cm$^2$ and Type CPN was shown 196~297kg/cm$^2$, respectively. Each strength ratio was smaller than that of the normal cement concrete. 4.

  • This was done by analyzing the sandwich panels that are now widely used in construction work. Sandwich panels are used for diverse purposes in construction work worldwide. In Korea, polystyrene panels that have organic materials as their core material are used. These panels are thus very vulnerable to fire, with risks of core melting, sheet deformation, and hazardous gases. Accordingly, sandwich panels' fire-resistant or non-flammable properties must be secured. To solve these problems, the optimal mixing proportion of lightweight foamed concrete for the sandwich panel core was determined. A new method of doing this was introduced that is completely different from the existing method, wherein a foaming agent is added to realize lightweight concrete. For lightweight concrete, the foaming mechanisms via diverse chemical reactions were identified, H$_2$O$_2$ was added for heating in the reaction, and the concrete foaming was maximized. Through diverse experiments to determine the optimal mixing proportion of lightweight foamed concrete and to examine the filling characteristic of lightweight foamed concrete for sandwich panel cores using waste materials, the physical and mechanical properties of lightweight foamed concrete were examined.

  • Ecological lightweight aggregates were made in order to recycle the dredged soils from the seaside construction area and the bottom ashes from the power plant. Various physical and chemical analysis were performed on them to identify their possibility for applying lightweight concrete fields. Lightweight aggregates were made of bottom ashes and dredged soils from Yongheung Island which is located 20km west away from Seoul, and all the raw materials were milled before mixing. The physical and chemical properties such as density, absorption rate, stability, alkali latency reaction, heavy metal leaching of the lightweight aggregates were tested and analysed by following the KS standard procedures. From the size analysis, the coarse aggregates showed a suitable fit on standard particle ranges; however, the fine aggregates showed a large deviation from the standard. The absorption rates were increased with decreasing weight of the aggregates. All the aggregates were turned out to be safe by the stability and heavy metal leaching test; however, some of the aggregates were confirmed on the border of harmless and possibly harmful region through the alkali latency reactivity test.

  • The measurement of physicochemical properties and chemical composition of SSA(sewage sludge ash) has been carried out and the preparation of lightweight material has also been performed using SSA for reuse as building or construction materials. For this aim, lightweight material has been prepared by forming the mixture of SSA, lightweight filler and inorganic binder followed by calcination at elevated temperature and characterized in terms of density and compressive strength. The pH of fly ash was found to be slightly alkaline, pH 8.69, due to the addition of caustic soda in order to neutralize the acidic gas while the pH of bottom ash was 6.48 Heavy metal leachability based on the standard leach test was also found to be below the detection limit for Cd, Cu, Pb, As and Cr of SSA. As far as the compressive strength of lightweight material was concerned, the compressive strength of lightweight material using fly ash was higher than that of lightweight material using bottom ash.

  • This study examined the reliability and revision necessity of concrete standard specifications based on the comparisons with test data obtained by using domestic artificial lightweight aggregates and the contents specified in different foreign specifications including ACI 211.2, ACI 213, ACI 301, JASS 5 and CEB-FIP. To achieve the continuous particle distribution of domestic fine lightweight aggregates, the partial addition of natural sand with the maximum size of 2.5mm was required. To control the segregation and excessive bleeding in the fresh lightweight concrete, the current limitations on the water-to-binder ratio and unit water content need to be modified using lower values. In particular, a rational mixture proportion approach of lightweight concrete needs to be established for the targeted requirements of initial slump, 28-day compressive strength, air content and dry unit weight. Ultimately, significant revision of the concrete standard specifications is required considering the characteristics of domestic artificial lightweight aggregates.

  • A lightweight artificial intelligence hardware has made great strides in many application areas. In general, a lightweight artificial intelligence system consist of lightweight artificial intelligence engine and preprocessor including feature selection, generation, extraction, and normalization. In order to achieve optimal performance in broad range of applications, lightweight artificial intelligence system needs to choose a good preprocessing function and set their respective hyper-parameters. This paper proposes a unified framework for a lightweight artificial intelligence system and utilization method for finding models with optimal performance to use on a given dataset. The proposed unified framework can easily generate a model combined with preprocessing functions and lightweight artificial intelligence engine. In performance evaluation using handwritten image dataset and fall detection dataset measured with inertial sensor, the proposed unified framework showed building optimal artificial intelligence models with over 90% test accuracy.

  • The interfacial transition zone(ITZ) which is the boundary layer between cement composites and aggregates is considered to be the region of gradual transition, heterogeneous, and the weakest part of concrete. For the development of lightweight high strength concrete, it is essential to evaluate the mechanical properties of ITZ between high strength concrete with low water-binder ratio and lightweight aggregates. However, the mechanical properties of ITZ are not well established due to its high porosity and complex structure. Furthermore, the properties of ITZ in concrete using lightweight aggregates are dominated by more various variations (e.g. water-binder ratio, water absorption capacity of aggregate, curing conditions) than normal-weight aggregate concrete. This study aims to elucidate the mechanical properties of ITZ in lightweight high-strength cement composites according to the types of aggregates and the aggregate sizes. Nanoindentation analysis was used to evaluate the elastic modulus of ITZ between high strength cement composites with the water-binder ratio of 0.2 and normal sand, lightweight aggregate with different aggregate siz es of 2mm and 5mm in this study.
