As a first step to apply PVAm (polyvinylamine) on packaging paper by surface treatment, three types of linerboards were impregnated with PVAm solution. The effect of PVAm pick-up on strength properties of linerboard was investigated. The pick-up of PVAm was controlled by varying concentration of PVAm solution. It was found that dry tensile strength, tensile energy absorption, burst strength and compressive strength of linerboard were increased by applying PVAm. In addition, wet tensile strength was significantly improved with increasing PVAm pick-up. However, folding endurance was found to be decreased with increasing PVAm pick-up.

The stability and performance (peel strength) of the acrylic copolymer and various modified rosin systems were investigated. The peel strength was measured over a wide range of scaling rates, and the influence of the viscoelasticity of the PSA(pressure sensitive adhesive) was considered. In the case of miscible systems, the peak of peel strength (PSA performance) over wide peel rates was changed and modified systematically with increasing glass transition temperature of the blends. The peak of the peel strength for blended systems shifts toward the lower rate side as glass transition temperature ($T_g$) of the blend increased. The influence of esterification of the rosin on performance and stability against deterioration was greatly modified by blending with rosin of glycerol ester and rosin pentaerythritol ester. The failure mode of the blend varies with the combination with acrylic copolymer and modified rosin, and cohesive failure was found at a lower peel rate while interfacial failure was found at a high peel rate. A few systems where a single Tg could be measured, despite the fact that two phases were observed microscopically, were detected.

The base paper of corrugated board is mainly produced from Korean old corrugated container (KOCC), and thus the recycling rate of KOCC is very high. However, there is a problem that the pulp quality is very low while the recycling rate of OCC is high. The fines content in KOCC, the main source of the corrugated board, amounts to nearly the half of the total stock, and its formation increases as recycling process repeats due to the hornification of fiber. There have been attempts to improve the drainage property of OCC by increasing the headbox concentration of the paper machine or by applying drainage-promoting polymer additives. However, these conventional methods have problems of weakened paper strength and lowered converting fitness caused by paper formation hindrance. The strength of linerboard could not be increased in case KOCC is used, because hornified OCC pulp can-not be sufficiently refined due to the lowered drainage property caused by fines formation. We studied about a new technique consisting of froth-flotation for fractionating pulp stock into a long fiber portion and fines fraction. This study will be developed in order to enhance the drainage and strength properties of a recycled OCC pulp by selective treatment of flocculant on fractionated OCC Fines.

This paper presents a modular structure design of analog Hopfield neural network. Each multiplier consists of four MOS transistors which are connected to an op-amp at the front end of a neuron. A pair of MOS transistor is used in order to maintain linear operation of the synapse and can produce positive or negative synaptic weight. This architecture can be expandable to any size neural network by forming tree structure. By altering the connections, other nework paradigms can also be implemented using this basic modules. The stength of this approach is the expandability and the general applicability. The layout design of a four-neuron fully connected feedback neural network is presented and is simulated using SPICE. The network shows correct retrival of distorted patterns.

Recently many firms are introducing the cellular manufacturing system(CMS) as a means of achieving manufacturing efficiencies. However, most of the research on CMS was mainly for determining the cell formation problems. Since the goal of the CMS is not only a increase production efficiencies, but also to enhance the competitive stength of a firm, it would be reasonable to assume CMS as a business reengineering module rather than an independent technique. The purpose of this study is to align the CMS with reengineering, to present an integrated methodology for constructing the CMS, and to apply the CMS to a firm and verify it. The paper concludes with a brief description of the lessons learend by the CMS project and the limitations of the research are described.

This paper presents an accelerated-curing method by the war water method and discusses how these methods can be adapted for regular quality control and quality assurance of concret. Accelerated strength test data can be used for estimating the furture stength, e.g. the 28-day strength. An accelerated-curing method to predict the 28-day strength of concrete from 1-day warm water-cured test results was evaluated in the laboratory and the field. For these evaluations test are performed for 1845 standard specimens from 123 different batches of concrete. The results of this study the equation applicable universally with resonable accuracy are presented for estimating the potential strength of concrete by the warm water-curing method.

Recently the use of ceramic materals has been greatly increased in the industries. But machining of the ceramics is quite unproductive because of their high stength,high hardness,and brittleness. The efficiency of the grinding operation of ceramics depends on the preparation of diamond grinding wheel, i.e.,truning and dressing. This paper describes some experimental results on the dressing conditions of diamond grinding wheel. The dressing performance is evaluated by the magnitude of normal grinding force. The better dressed wheels result in the lower normal grinding forces. The dressing performances of copper plate and aluminum oxide dressing stick are compared. The optimum dressing conditions including the grit size of dressing sticks, the depth of the dressing operation, and the dressing speed qre determined.

In this paper, fatigue crack propagation behaviors were investigated experimentally for the materials, carbon steel forgings (SF45A, SF50A, SF60A) which are used in the marine propeller shaft. The results obtained are as follows: The number of cycles required to grow crack length 1.30mm from microcrack initiation was about 60% of the total fatigue life. Fatigue crack propagation rate was expressed by the equation d(2a)/dN_B 2a/$N_f$ and the result was agreed well with the experimented data. And the equation d(2a)/dN=$C{\sigma}_a^m(2a)^n$ was evaluated also. Obtained material property m and n are 3~5 and 1-1.5 respectably, and the result was reasonably agreed to the data obtained from experiments.

In this paper, we have investigated deformation of cup for EFI detonator in high velocity impact test. The experimental result shows that STS cup deformed 0.170 mm with the bulged shape. The numerical simulation result with static/dynamic material properties of SUS304 shows 0.166 mm of deformation. The main parameters to decrease the deformation of cup are stength, thickness and density of cup. The initial condition of SUS304 cup was strength of 215 MPa and thickness of 0.12 mm. As strength increases to 500 MPa, deformation of cup converges to 0 mm, and as thickness increases to 0.18 mm, deformation of cup converges to 0 mm. If the density of cup decreases from 8 to 2.7 g/cc, the deformation of cup decreases to 0.141 mm.

The design of tall buildings has recently provided many challenges to structural engineers. One such challenge is to minimise the cross-sectional dimensions of columns to ensure greater floor space in a building is attainable. This has both an economic and aesthetics benefit in buildings, which require structural engineering solutions. The use of high strength steel in tall buildings has the ability to achieve these benefits as the material provides a higher strength to cross-section ratio. However as the strength of the steel is increased the buckling characteristics become more dominant with slenderness limits for both local and global buckling becoming more significant. To arrest the problems associated with buckling of high strength steel, concrete filling and encasement can be utilised as it has the affect of changing the buckling mode, which increases the strength and stiffness of the member. This paper describes an experimental program undertaken for both encased and concrete filled composite columns, which were designed to be stocky in nature and thus fail by strength alone. The columns were designed to consider the strength in axial compression and were fabricated from high strength steel plate. In addition to the encased and concrete filled columns, unencased columns and hollow columns were also fabricated and tested to act as calibration specimens. A model for the axial strength was suggested and this is shown to compare well with the test results. Finally aspects of further research are addressed in this paper which include considering the effects of slender columns which may fail by global instabilities.
