Cellulose is an abundant biodegradable material in nature with excellent properties, but due to its poor processability, it has been widely studied for processing through modification. Cellulose acetate propionate (CAP) is a cellulose derivative in which the hydroxyl group of cellulose is replaced by acetyl and propionyl groups. CAP has several advantages, such as excellent solubility, structural stability, light and weather resistance, and good transparency. Porous nanofibers with excellent specific surface area, which can be applied in various fields, can be easily formed by the phase separation method using highly volatile solvents. High speed centrifugal spinning is a nano/micro fiber preparation method with advantages such as fast spinning and easy alignment control. In this study, a CAP/polybutylene succinate (PBS) spinning solution with chloroform as solvent was prepared to prepare porous microfibers and the fiber morphology was examined as a function of the disk rotation speed in an high speed centrifugal spinning device.

This study was intended to evaluate the shielding rate of radiation shields manufactured using 3D printers that have recently been used in various fields by comparing them with existing shields made of lead, and to find out their applicability through experiments. A 3D printer shield made of tungsten filament 1 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm shield, RNS-TX (nanotungsten) 1.1 mm, lead 0.2 mmPb, and 1mmPb were exposed to ^99mTc, ¹⁸F, and ²⁰¹TI for 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 60 minutes after measuring cumulative dose three times. Based on this, the shielding rate of each shield was calculated based on the dose in the absence of the shield. In addition, ^99mTc, ¹⁸F, and ²⁰¹TI were located 100 cm away from the phantom in which the OSLD nano Dot device was inserted, and if there was no shield for 60 minutes, the dose of thyroid was measured using 1.0 mm of lead shield, 1.1 mm of RNS-TX shield, and 2 mm of tungsten shield made by 3D printer. The use of shields during radiation shielding emitted from open radiation sources all resulted in a reduction in dose. The radiation dose emitted from the radionuclides under the experiment was all reduced when the shield was used. This study has been confirmed that tungsten is a material that can replace lead due to its excellent performance and efficiency as shield, and that it even shows the possibility of manufacturing a customized shield using 3D printer.

The current study employs the nonlocal Timoshenko beam (NTB) theory and von-Kármán's geometric nonlinearity to develop a non-classic beam model for evaluating the nonlinear free vibration of bi-directional functionally-graded (BFG) nanobeams. In order to avoid the stretching-bending coupling in the equations of motion, the problem is formulated based on the physical middle surface. The governing equations of motion and the relevant boundary conditions have been determined using Hamilton's principle, followed by discretization using the differential quadrature method (DQM). To determine the frequencies of nonlinear vibrations in the BFG nanobeams, a direct iterative algorithm is used for solving the discretized underlying equations. The model verification is conducted by making a comparison between the obtained results and benchmark results reported in prior studies. In the present work, the effects of amplitude ratio, nanobeam length, material distribution, nonlocality, and boundary conditions are examined on the nonlinear frequency of BFG nanobeams through a parametric study. As a main result, it is observed that the nonlinear vibration frequencies are greater than the linear vibration frequencies for the same amplitude of the nonlinear oscillator. The study finds that the difference between the dimensionless linear frequency and the nonlinear frequency is smaller for CC nanobeams compared to SS nanobeams, particularly within the α range of 0 to 1.5, where the impact of geometric nonlinearity on CC nanobeams can be disregarded. Furthermore, the nonlinear frequency ratio exhibits an increasing trend as the parameter µ is incremented, with a diminishing dependency on nanobeam length (L). Additionally, it is established that as the nanobeam length increases, a critical point is reached at which a sharp rise in the nonlinear frequency ratio occurs, particularly within the nanobeam length range of 10 nm to 30 nm. These findings collectively contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the nonlinear vibration behavior of BFG nanobeams in relation to various parameters.

This paper presents results of visual analysis of cracks formation and propagation of concretes made of quaternary binders (QBC). A composition of the two most commonly used mineral additives, i.e. fly ash (FA) and silica fume (SF) in combination with nanosilica (nS), has been proposed as a partial replacement of the cement. The principal objective of the present study is to achieve information about the effect of simultaneous incorporation of three pozzolans as partial replacement to the OPC on the fracture processes in concretes made from quaternary binders (QBC). The modern and precise non-contact measurement method (NCMM) via digital image correlation (DIC) technique was used, during the studies. In the course of experiments it was established that the substitution of OPC with three pozzolans including the nanoadditive in FA+SF+nS FA+SF+nS combination causes a clear change of brittleness and behavior during fractures in QBCs. It was found that the shape of cracks in unmodified concrete was quasi-linear. Substitution of the binder by SCMs resulted in a slight heterogeneity of the structure of the QBC, including only SF and nS, and clear heterogeneity for concretes with the FA additive. In addition, as content of FA rises throughout each of QBC series, material becomes more ductile and shows less brittle failure. It means that an increase in the FA content in the concrete mix causes a significant change in fracture process in this composite in comparison to concrete with the addition of silica modifiers only.

Due to interfacial ageing, chemical action and interfacial damage, the interface debonding may appear in the interfaces of composite laminates. Particularly, the laminates display a side-dependent effect at small scale. In this work, a three-dimensional (3D) and anisotropic thick nanoplate model is proposed to investigate the effects of imperfect interface and nonlocal parameter on the bending deformation, vibrational response and buckling stability of one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal quasicrystal (QC) layered nanoplates. By combining the linear spring model with the transferring matrix method, exact solutions of phonon and phason displacements, phonon and phason stresses of bending deformation, the natural frequencies of vibration and the critical buckling loads of 1D hexagonal QC layered nanoplates are derived with imperfect interfaces and nonlocal effects. Numerical examples are illustrated to demonstrate the effects of the imperfect interface parameter, aspect ratio, thickness, nonlocal parameter, and stacking sequence on the bending deformation, the vibrational response and the critical buckling load of 1D hexagonal QC layered nanoplate. The results indicate that both the interface debonding and nonlocal effect can reduce the stiffness and stability of layered nanoplates. Increasing thickness of QC coatings can enhance the stability of sandwich nanoplates with the perfect interfaces, while it can reduce first and then enhance the stability of sandwich nanoplates with the imperfect interfaces. The biaxial compression easily results in an instability of the QC layered nanoplates compared to uniaxial compression. QC material is suitable for surface layers in layered structures. The mechanical behavior of QC layered nanoplates can be optimized by imposing imperfect interfaces and controlling the stacking sequence artificially. The present solutions are helpful for the various numerical methods, thin nanoplate theories and the optimal design of QC nano-composites in engineering practice with interfacial debonding.

Bismuth는 적절한 작동 전압(0.8 V)과 높은 체적 용량(3,765 mAh cm^-3) 때문에 Li-ion battery (LIBs)의 유망한 음극소재로 여겨진다. 그럼에도 불구하고 Bi의 Li과의 합금화 반응 중 필연적인 부피 팽창은 심각한 용량 손실과 셀 파괴를 초래한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 N이 도핑된 탄소에 내장된 비스무트 합금 나노 입자(Bi@NC)의 복합체를 간단한 열분해 방법을 통해 제조하였다. 나노 크기의 Bismuth 합금은 단축된 Li⁺ 이온 확산 경로를 통해 반응 동역학을 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한, N 도핑된 탄소 코팅은 Li⁺ 이온과의 확장된 합금/탈 합금 반응 동안 Bismuth의 부피 변화를 효과적으로 완충하고 효과적인 전도성 네트워크를 유지한다. 열 중량 분석한 결과 매우 높은 Bismuth 합금 로딩(80.9 wt%)을 보여줬음에도 불구하고 100 cycles까지 315 mAh g^-1 용량을 유지하였다.

Geopolymer, also known as alkali aluminum silicate, is used as a substitute for Portland cement, and it is also used as a binder because of its good adhesive properties and heat resistance. Since Davidovits developed Geopolymer matrix composites (GMCs) based on the binder properties of geopolymer, they have been utilized as flame exhaust ducts and aircraft fire protection materials. Geopolymer structures are formed through hydrolysis and dehydration reactions, and their physical properties can be influenced by reaction conditions such as concentration, reaction time, and temperature. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of silica size and aging time on the mechanical properties of composites. Commercial water glass and kaolin were used to synthesize geopolymers, and two types of silica powder were added to increase the silicon content. Using carbon fiber mats, a fiber-reinforced composite material was fabricated using the hand lay-up method. Spectroscopy was used to confirm polymerization, aging effects, and heat treatment, and composite materials were used to measure flexural strength. As a result, it was confirmed that the longer time aging and use of nano-sized silica particles were helpful in improving the mechanical properties of the geopolymer matrix composite.

전치부 영역에서의 복합 레진을 이용한 수복물의 표면은 착색과 치태 침착이 적어야 하며 치은 조직에 좋은 내성을 갖도록 평활해야 한다. 레진 수복 후 여러 마무리 방법중 blade를 이용한 방법은 치은과 접해있는 변연 부위의 불필요한 레진을 제거하고 마무리하는데 있어 치은 손상을 최소화하면서 간편하게 이용할 수 있는 방법이다. 본 연구의 목적은 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 nano-hybrid composite resin과 ormocer-based compostie resin 간의 여러 가지 마무리 방법에 있어 blade를 이용한 방법과 polishing을 시행한 경우의 표면 거칠기 및 nano계열과 ormocer 계열 복합 레진의 표면 특징을 비교하는 것으로 실험을 위해 가로 6mm, 세로 3mm, 높이 2mm의 금속 주형을 이용하여 레진 블록을 형성하고 대조군은 상면에 mylar strip을 위치시켜 광중합 하였으며, Ormocer - based composite resin ($Admira^{(R)}$)과 nanohybrid composite resin ($Grandio^{(R)}$)에서는 blade를 이용한 경우와 rubber polishing을 이용한 경우를 실험군으로 하였고, ormocer-based flowable composite resin ($Admira^{(R)}$ Flow)과 nanohybrid flowable composite resin ($Grandio^{(R)}$ Flow)에서는 blade를 이용한 경우, rubber polishing을 이용한 경우와 추가적으로 아무것도 시행하지 않은 경우를 실험군으로 하였다. 레진 블록의 표면은 profilometer 및 SEM을 이용하여 거칠기 및 조도를 비교하였으며 통계분석 하였다. 실험 결과 mylar stirp을 적용한 경우 Ra (${\mu}m$) 평균 값은 ormocer-base composite resin이 $0.25{\mu}m$, ormocer-based flowable resin $0.17{\mu}m$, nanohybrid composite resin $0.24{\mu}m$, nanohybrid flowable resin $0.18{\mu}m$ 였으며 blade를 적용한 경우 평균 값은 각각 $0.43{\mu}m$, $0.37{\mu}m$, $0.48{\mu}m$, $0.41{\mu}m$ 였다. 가장 낮은 Ra (${\mu}m$)은 mylar stirp을 적용한 시편에서 얻어졌으며, blade를 이용한 마무리 방법과 rubber polishing을 시행한 경우와 표면 거칠기 비교시 Ra (${\mu}m$)값에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (P>0.05). Nanohybrid composite resin이 blade로 마무리하거나 rubber polishing후 ormocer-based composite resin보다 표면 거칠기 증가율이 좀 더 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과는 blade를 이용한 마무리 방법이 다른 마무리 방법을 대체할 수 있을 것이라는 것을 보여주며, 이에 따라 본 실험 결과에 한정지어 볼 때 복합레진 수복후 마무리 방법으로 blade를 이용하여 시행하는 것이 적용가능 할 것이라 생각된다.

We have fabricated schottky barrier diode (SBDs) using polar (c-plane) and non polar (a-, m-plane) n-type 6H-SiC wafers. Ni/SiC ohmic contact was accomplished on the backside of the SiC wafers by thermal evaporation and annealed for 20minutes at $950^{\circ}C$ in mixture gas ($N_2$ 90% + $H_2$ balanced). The specific contact resistance was $3.6{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm^2$ after annealing at $950^{\circ}C$. The XRD results of the alloyed contact layer show that formation of $NiSi_2$ layer might be responsible for the ohmic contact. The active rectifying electrode was formed by the same thermal evaporation of Ni thin film on topside of the SiC wafers and annealed for 5 minutes at $500^{\circ}C$ in mixture gas ($N_2$ 90% + $H_2$ balanced). The electrical properties of SBDs have been characterized by means of I-V and C-V curves. The forward voltage drop is about 0.95 V, 0.8 V and 0.8 V for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs respectively. The ideality factor (${\eta}$) of all SBDs have been calculated from log(I)-V plot. The values of ideality factor were 1.46, 1.46 and 1.61 for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs, respectively. The schottky barrier height (SBH) of all SBDs have been calculated from C-V curve. The values of SBH were 1.37 eV, 1.09 eV and 1.02 eV for c-, a- and m-plane SiC SBDs, respectively.
