This paper presents an approximate analytical solution to a two-region one-dimensional model for the charging process of stratified thermal storage tanks with variable inlet temperature in the presence of momentum-induced mixing. Based on the superposition principle, an arbitrary-varying inlet temperature is decomposed into inherent discontinuous steps and continuous intervals approximated as a finite number of piecewise linear functions. This approximation allows the temperature of the upper perfectly-mixed layer to be expressed in terms of constant, linear and exponential functions with respect to time. Applying the Laplace transform technique to the model equation for the lower thermocline layer subject to each of three representative interfacial conditions yields compact-form solutions, a linear combination of which constitutes the final temperature profile. A systematic method for deriving solutions to the plug-flow problem having polynomial-type boundary conditions is also established. The effect of adiabatic exit boundary on solution behaviors proves to be negligible under the actual working conditions, which justifies the assumption of semi-infinite domain introduced in the solution procedure. Finally, the approximate solution is validated by comparing it with an exact solution obtained for a specific variation of inlet temperature. Excellent agreements between them suffice to show the necessity and utility of this work.

Polystyrenes(PS) were grafted onto polypropylene(PP) in the PP solution by ultrasonic irradiation-initiated polymerization of styrene. The resulting products consisted of mixtures of homopolymers and PP-PS copolymer because of the homopolymerization of styrene itself and copolymerization with PP. The dependency of the designated polymerization on sonication times was investigated to monitor the evolution lion of the copolymerization. Formation of the PP-PS copolymer was confirmed by FTIR analysis of the reaction products after a proper separation procedure of free PS and PP-PS copolymer. It was found that the tendency for the formation of PP-PS copolymer was closely related with the phase behavior of the PP/styrene mixture which was also influenced by sonication time. In order to verify the effectiveness of the PP-PS copolymer as a compatibilizer for PP/PS blend, melt mixing of PP/PS/PP-PS was performed in a batch mixer. During the mixing, the average torque was higher for the blend containing PP-PS copolymer influencing compatibilization. In accordance with the results from FRIR analysis and torque measurement, the PS domain size remarkably decreased in the PP/PS/PP-PS blend.

The use of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) as a substitute for natural aggregates in new concrete produces both economic and environmental advantages. Most of the RCA applications for pavements have been primarily applied to support layers for roads and airfields. This paper summarizes a work completed at the University of Illinois in partnership with the O'Hare Modernization Program to examine the effect of coarse and fine RCA on the concrete's fresh and hardened properties for airfield rigid pavement applications. Ten different RCA concrete mixtures were prepared with the incorporation of different percentages of RCA fines as well as replacement of cement with high volume percentages of supplementary cementitious materials such as Class C fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag to improve the workability and long-term properties of RCA concrete. All the mixes on this stage included 100% recycled coarse aggregates and the Two-Stage Mixing Approach was used as a mixing procedure. Based on the results obtained in the research, mixes with high percentages of recycled fine and coarse aggregates could be used for construction of airfield concrete pavements in conjunction with supplementary cementitious materials

The Radial Point Interpolation Method (RPIM) has been proposed to overcome the difficulties associated with the use of the Radial Basis Functions (RBFs). The RPIM has the following properties: Simple implementation in terms of boundary conditions as in the Finite Element Method (FEM). A less expensive CPU time compared to other collocation meshless methods such as the Moving Least Square (MLS) collocation method. In this work, we propose an adaptive high-order numerical algorithm based on RPIM to simulate the thermoviscoplastic behavior of a material mixing observed in the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process. The proposed adaptive meshfree RPIM algorithm adapts well to the geometric and physical data by choosing a good shape parameter with a good precision. Our numerical approach combines the RPIM and the Asymptotic Numerical Method (ANM). A numerical procedure is also proposed in this work to automatically determine an improved shape parameter for the RBFs. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is analyzed in comparison with an iterative algorithm.

This study attempted to measure molecular weight (MW) of melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) resins prepared by two different synthesis methods: the one-step MUF resins were synthesized in one batch procedure, while the two-step MUF resins were prepared by a physical mixing of urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin with melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resin that had been synthesized in a separate procedure. The properties of medium density fiberboard (MDF) panels bonded with two types of MUF resins were also investigated. MWs of these MUF resins were measured using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). In addition, this study measured the MWs of one-step MUF resin during its synthesis procedure. The performance of two types of MUF resins was evaluated by determining properties of MDF panels prepared in laboratory. As the synthesis procedure progressed, both number average MW ($M_n$) and weight average MW ($M_w$) of one-step MUF resin gradually increased, while the polydispersity index (PDI) decreased. And low Mw species of the resin predominantly decreased as the synthesis step progressed. The one-step MUF resin showed greater $M_n$ and $M_w$ than those of the two-step ones even though the PDI values of both resins were very similar each other. As expected, the one-step MUF resin resulted in better properties of MDF panels than those of two-step resins. In particular, the one-step MUF resin provided better internal bond (IB) strength and thickness swelling (TS) with MDF panels than those of two-step ones, indicating better water resistance of the one-step resin. These results suggest that the preparation method of MUF resins have a great impact on the MW and final panel properties.

유해한 중금속을 다량 함유하는 EAF(electric arc furnace) 더스트를 세라믹 원료로 재활용하기 위해서 EAF 더스트, EAF 더스트-점토에 대해서 pH와 혼합비에 따른 중금속 용출농도의 변화를 분석하였다. 소성과정 중에서 발생하는 중금속의 휘발량을 소지 내의 중금속 이온의 총량을 측정하여 평가하였으며 TCLP(toxicity characteristic leaching procedure)분석을 통해 중금속 이온의 안정화 정도를 평가하였다. EAF 더스트-점토 슬러리의 pH를 10으로 조절하였을 경우에 습식혼합 여액중의 중금속 이온의 농도가 가장 낮은 값을 가졌다. pH 10의 슬러리에 대해서 혼합비와 소성온도에 따른 소지내 중금속 이온의 총량을 측정한 결과 소성온도와 EAF 더스트의 함량이 증가할수록 중금속의 휘발이 증가하였으며, 점토의 혼합비가 증가할수록 중금속 이온의 휘발이 억제되었다. TCLP 분석결과 점토의 혼합비와 소성온도가 증가할수록 중금속의 용출은 감소하였으며 중금속의 용출농도는 기준치 이하로 안정화되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 사행수로에서 유속구조가 추적물질의 혼합에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 2개의 만곡부를 갖는 S자형 실험수로를 제작하여 순간 주입된 추적자물질에 대한 분산실험을 수행하였다. 실험자료를 분석한 결과, 주 흐름은 사행수로의 최단경로를 따라 이동하며 만곡부에서 불균일한 분포를 갖는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이차류의 경우, 만곡부에서 강력한 셀이 발달하나 직선부에서는 소멸하다가 다시 다음 만곡부에 반대 방향의 셀로 재생성됨이 확인되었다. 오염운의 거동은 주흐름의 불균일한 분포와 이차류셀에 의해 매우 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 주흐름의 불균일한 분포는 오염운을 종방향으로 분리시키고, 이차류 셀은 만곡부 외측의 처진 오염운을 횡방향으로 더욱 분리시키는 역할을 하게 되어, 결과적으로 만곡부의 복잡한 유속구조가 오염운을 종 횡방향으로 모두 분리시키고 나아가서 많이 퍼지게 하는 작용을 하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 2차원 추적법의 적용을 통해서 각 케이스별 종 횡분산계수 실측치를 산정한 결과, 사행수로 전체구간에 대한 무차원 횡분산계수는 0.012~0.875의 범위를 갖는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 횡분산계수는 하폭 대 수심비에 대체적으로 비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 횡분산계수 이론식에 의한 추정치와 비교한 결과, 이론치가 실측치와 비교하여 다소 과대 산정하는 경향을 보여주고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
