고분자연료전지에 사용되는 다공성 매체인 기체확산층은 그 특성에 따라 원활한 기체의 확산과 물 배출을 결정지으며 그 결과 연료전지 성능과 내구성에까지 영향을 미친다. 최적의 물관리와 기체확산층 내에서의 이상(two phase) 유동이해를 위해서는 실제 체결 조건에서의 기체확산층의 성질을 아는 것이 중요하다. 이에 대해 물리적, 전기화학적, 기계적 성질을 알기 위한 실험 등이 수행되어져 왔다. 하지만 실제 스택의 체결 조건에서 기체확산층의 표면 화학적 변화에 대한 실험은 그다지 알려져 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 단순한 체결 과정만으로도 기체확산층에 대한 물리화학적인 변화를 야기할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 기체확산층을 구성하는 탄소 섬유 및 PTFE의 손상과 변형을 전자주사현미경으로 직접 관찰할 수 있었다. 관찰된 물리적 손상이 표면의 소수성 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 표면 원소성분 분석과 농도가 다른 에탄올 수용액 흡수량 측정을 수행하였다. 그 결과 체결압에 의해서 분리판의 rib 전단 및 아래에서 심한 파손이 일어나며, 탄소 섬유의 끊어짐 및 섬유 사이에 존재하는 탄소 파우더 역시 심하게 눌린 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 체결과정을 경험한 기체확산층에 대한 liquid uptake양을 확인한 결과, 표면 PTFE 함량의 상대적 감소가 기체확산층의 표면을 소수성에서 친수성으로 변화시켰음을 직접적으로 확인하였다.

연구 목적: 본 연구의 목적은 색소체인 크롬염화물을 지르코니아에 첨가함으로써 지르코니아의 색상 및 물리적 성질, 그리고 미세구조가 어떻게 변화하는지 알아보고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 크롬염화물의 함량이 지르코니아 분말에 각각 0.06, 0.12, 0.25 wt%가 되도록 측량하고 알코올에 녹여 액상상태의 크롬염화물을 준비하였다. 지르코니아 분말과 각각의 액상상태의 크롬염화물을 혼합하고 혼합된 분말을 이용하여 디스크형태의 지르코니아 시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 시편은 $1450^{\circ}C$에서 완전소결 후 색상 및 물리적 성질, 그리고 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 색상은 분광측색장치를 이용하여 국제조명위원회 (CIE) ISO 기준인 D65 광원, SCE 방식으로 측정하여 $L^*$, $C^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ 값으로 분석하였다. 밀도는 아르키메데스 법으로 측정하였고, 주사전자현미경과 X선 회절 분석기를 이용하여 시편의 미세구조 및 결정상을 관찰하였다. 파괴인성은 압흔 형성법(Vickers indentation법)을 이용하여 시편에 압흔 형성 후, 광학현미경으로 압흔의 크기를 측정하고 이를 이용하여 파괴인성을 구하였다. 결과는 일원배치분산분석 (one-way ANOVA)으로 통계처리 하였고, Tukey test로 사후 검정하였다. 결과: 1. 크롬염화물을 첨가하여 지르코니아의 색상을 조절할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 크롬염화물 첨가 함량이 증가함에 따라 지르코니아 색상은 백색계통의 갈색에서 짙은 색의 갈색으로 변하였다. 2. 크롬염화물의 첨가는 시편의 밀도를 점점 감소시켰으며, 크롬염화물이 첨가되지 않은 시편과 비교 시, 크롬염화물의 첨가량이 증가할수록 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다 (P<.05). 3. 크롬염화물이 첨가된 시편은 첨가되지 않는 시편에 비해 결정립 크기가 증가하였다. 4. X-선 회절 분석결과, 크롬염화물의 첨가 여부와 첨가 함량에 상관없이 지르코니아 결정상의 차이점은 관찰되지 않았다. 5. 지르코니아에 크롬염화물을 첨가 시 크롬염화물의 첨가 함량에 따라 파괴인성값은 감소하였고, 특히 0.25 wt%의 크롬염화물을 첨가 시 가장 낮은 파괴인성 값을 보였다 (P<.05). 결론: 이상의 결과로 크롬염화물을 액체상태로 첨가하여 지르코니아의 색상을 조절할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 제작한 유색 지르코니아의 색상은 자연치아 색상과 다소 차이가 있지만, 본 소재는 임상에서 사용되는 완전도재관 코어 (Core) 재료로써 사용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

Analysing the incompatible deformation and damage evolution around the tunnels in mixed strata is significant for evaluating the tunnel stability, as well as the interaction between the support system and the surrounding rock mass. To investigate this issue, confined compression tests were conducted on upper-soft and lower-hard strata specimens containing a circular hole using a rock testing system, the physical mechanical properties were then investigated. Then, the incompatible deformation and failure modes of the specimens were analysed based on the digital speckle correlation method (DSCM) and Acoustic Emission (AE) data. Finally, numerical simulations were conducted to explore the damage evolution of the mixed strata. The results indicate that at low inclination angles, the deformation and v-shaped notches inside the hole are controlled by the structure plane. Progressive spalling failure occurs at the sidewalls along the structure plane in soft rock. But the transmission of the loading force between the soft rock and hard rock are different in local. At high inclination angles, v-shaped notches are approximately perpendicular to the structure plane, and the soft and hard rock bear common loads. Incompatible deformation between the soft rock and hard rock controls the failure process. At inclination angles of 0°, 30° and 90°, incompatible deformations are closely related to rock damage. At 60°, incompatible deformations and rock damage are discordant due that the soft rock and hard rock alternately bears the major loads during the failure process. The failure trend and modes of the numerical results agree very well with those observed in the experimental results. As the inclination angles increase, the proportion of the shear or tensile damage exhibits a nonlinear increase or decrease, suggesting that the inclination angle of mixed strata may promote shear damage and restrain tensile damage.

Taking top-coal caving mining face (TCCMF) as research object, this paper considers the combination of top-coal and immediate roof as cushion layer to build the solution model of support resistance based on the theory of elastic foundation beam. Meanwhile, the physical and mechanical properties of coal-rock combination influencing on strata behaviors is explored. The results illustrate that the subsidence of main roof in coal wall increases and the first weighting interval decreases with the increase of top-coal and immediate roof thicknesses as well as the decrease of top-coal and immediate roof elastic modulus. Moreover, the overlying strata reflecting on support has negative and positive relationship with top-coal thickness and immediate roof thickness, respectively. However, elastic modulus has limit influence on the dead weight of top-coal and immediate roof. As a result, it has similar roles on the increase of total support resistance and overlying strata reflecting on support in the limit range of roof control distance. In view of sensitive analysis causing the change of total support resistance, it can be regards as the rank of three components as immediate roof weight > overlying strata reflecting on support > top coal weight. Finally, combined with the monitoring data of support resistance in Qingdong 828, the validity of support resistance determined based on elastic foundation beam is demonstrated, and this method can be recommended to adopt for support type selecting in TCCMF.

In this study, a study and interpretation of the spinning process in copolymerized aramid spinning was conducted. In order to proceed with the spinning process modeling and analysis, the spinning process was modeled through the physical property modeling of the spinning solution and the structural modeling of the spinneret, and structural stability and flow of the spinneret for this spinning were analyzed. After modeling the spinning solution and the spinneret in a virtual space, the pack pressure and flow rate when the spinning solution was discharged were simulated. Macroscopically, the structural stability of the spinneret was confirmed at the standard pack pressure (100 kg·f/cm²), and microscopically, the flow rate and pressure drop data of the spinning solution according to the L/D(Length (L)/Diameter (D)) value were analyzed. Based on the research and development of virtual engineering modeling and analysis, we present the possibility of changing the shape and mechanical properties of copolymer aramid fibers according to the spinning process.

A microstructure-dependent dynamic model for silicon nanobeams with axial motion is developed by considering the effects of nonlocal elasticity and surface energy. The nanobeam is considered to subject to both transverse and longitudinal loads arising from nanostructural surface effect and all positive directions of physical quantities are defined clearly prior to modeling so as to clarify the confusions of sign in governing equations of previous work. The nonlocal and surface effects are taken into consideration in the dynamic behaviors of silicon nanobeams with axial motion including circular natural frequency, vibration mode, transverse displacement and critical speed. Various supporting conditions are presented to investigate the circular frequencies by a numerical method and the effects of many variables such as nonlocal nanoscale, axial velocity and external loads on non-dimensional circular frequencies are addressed. It is found that both nonlocal and surface effects play remarkable roles on the dynamics of nanobeams with axial motion and cause the frequencies and critical speed to decrease compared with the classical continuum results. The comparisons of the non-dimensional calculation values by present and previous studies validate the correctness of the present work. Additionally, numerical examples for silicon nanobeams with axial motion are addressed to show the nonlocal and surface effects on circular frequencies intuitively. Results obtained in this paper are helpful for the design and optimization of nanobeam-like microstructures based sensors and oscillators at nanoscale with desired dynamic mechanical properties.

Shenzhen Innovation Light source Facility (SILF) is a 3.0 GeV fourth generation diffraction limited synchrotron light source currently under construction in Shenzhen. The SILF storage ring is proposed to use two 500 MHz single cell superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities to provide 2.4 MV RF voltage. In this study, we examined the geometric structure of mature CESR superconducting cavities and adopted a beam-pipe-type extraction scheme for high-order modes (HOM). One of the objectives of SRF cavity design and optimization in this study is to reduce E_p/E_acc and B_p/E_acc as much as possible to reduce power loss and ensure stable operation of the cavity. To reduce the risk of beam instability and thermal breakdown, the HOM and Multipacting (MP) are simulated. Moreover, the mechanical properties of the cavity are analyzed, including frequency sensitivity from pressure of liquid helium (LHe), stress, tuning, Lorentz force detuning (LFD), the microphone effect, and buckling. By comprehensive design and optimization of 500 MHz single-cell SRF cavities, a superconducting cavity for SILF storage ring was developed. This paper will detailed present the design and simulation.

Nanosheets of graphene and related 2D materials have attracted much attention due to excellent physical, chemical and mechanical properties. Single-layer graphene (SLG) was first synthesized by Blakely et al in 1974 [1]. Following his achievements, we initiated the growth and characterization of graphene and h-BN on metal substrates using surface segregation and precipitation in 1980s [2,3]. There are three important steps for nanosheet growth; surface segregation of dopants, surface reaction for monolayer phase, and subsequent 3-D growth (surface precipitation). Surface phase transition was clearly demonstrated on C-doped Ni(111) by in situ XPS at elevated temperatures [4]. The growth mode was clarified by inelastic background analysis [5]. The surface segregation approach has been applied to C-doped Pt(111) and Pd(111), and controllable growth of SLG has been demonstrated successfully [6]. Recently we proposed a promising method for producing SLG fully covering an entire substrate using Ni films deposited on graphite substrates [7]. A universal method for layer counting has been proposed [8]. In this paper, we will focus on the effect of competitive surface-site occupation between carbon and other surface-active impurities on the graphene growth. It is known that S is a typical impurity of metals and the most surface-active element. The surface sites shall be occupied by S through surface segregation. In the case of Ni(110), it is confirmed by AES and STM that the available surface sites is nearly occupied by S with a centered $2{\times}2$ arrangement. When Ni(110) is doped with C, surface segregation of C may be interfered by surface active elements like S. In this case, nanoscopic characterization has discovered a preferred directional growth of SLG, exhibiting a square-like shape (Fig. 1). Also the detailed characterization methodologies for graphene and h-BN nanosheets, including AFM, STM, KPFM, AES, HIM and XPS shall be discussed.

Biodegradable nanofibrous poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) scaffold was prepared by an electrospinning process for use in tissue regeneration. The nanofiber scaffold was treated with oxygen plasma and then simultaneously in situ grafted with hydrophilic acrylic acid (AA) to obtain PLLA-g-PAA. The fiber diameter, pore size, and porosity of the electrospun nanofibrous PLLA scaffold were estimated as $250\sim750nm,\;\sim30{\mu}m$, and 95%, respectively. The ultimate tensile strength was 1.7 MPa and the percent elongation at break was 120%. Although the physical and mechanical properties of the PLLA-g-PAA scaffold were comparable to those of the PLLA control, a significantly lower contact angle and significantly higher ratio of oxygen to carbon were notable on the PLLA-g-PAA surface. After the fibroblasts were cultured for up to 6 days, cell adhesion and proliferation were much improved on the nanofibrous PLLA-g-PAA scaffold than on either PLLA film or unmodified nanofibrous PLLA scaffold. The present work demonstrated that the applications of plasma treatment and hydrophilic AA grafting were effective to modify the surface of electrospun nanofibrous polymer scaffolds and that the altered surface characteristics significantly improved cell adhesion and proliferation.
