The design theory for nanoporous filtration membranes needs to be established. The present study shows that the performance and technical advancement of nanoporous filtration membranes are determined by the fundamental parameter I (in the unit Watt^1/2) which is formulated as a function of the shear strength of the liquid-pore wall interface, the radius of the filtration pore, the membrane thickness, and the bulk dynamic viscosity of the flowing liquid. This parameter determines the critical power loss on a single filtration pore for initiating the wall slippage, which is important for the flux of the membrane. It also relates the membrane permeability to the power cost by the filtration pore. It is shown that for biological cellular membranes its values are on the scale 1.0E-8Watt^1/2, for mono-layer graphene membranes its values are on the scale 1.0E-9Watt^1/2, and for nanoporous membranes made of silica, silicon nitride or silicon carbonized its values are on the scale 1.0E-5Watt^1/2. The scale of the value of this parameter directly measures the level of the performance of a nanoporous filtration membrane. The carbon nanotube membrane has the similar performance with biological cellular membranes, as it also has the value of I on the scale 1.0E-8Watt^1/2.

The objective of this study is to develop a novel method for evaluating forward osmosis (FO) membrane performances using a non-pressurized FO system. Basic membrane performance parameters including water (A) and solute (B) permeability coefficients and unique parameter for FO membrane such as the support layer structural parameter (S) were determined in two FO modes (i.e., active layer faces feed solution (AL-FS) and active layer faces draw solution (AL-DS)). Futhermore, these parameters were compared with those determined in a pressurized reverse osmosis (RO) system. Theoretical water flux was calculated by employing these parameters to a model that accounts for the effects of both internal and external concentration polarization. Water flux from FO experiment was compared to theoretical water fluxes for assessing the reliability of those parameters determined in three different operation modes (i.e., AL-FS FO, AL-DS FO, and RO modes). It is demonstrated that FO membrane performance parameters can be accurately measured in non-pressurized FO mode. Specifically, membrane performance parameters determined in AL-DS FO mode most accurately predict FO water flux. This implies that the evaluation of FO membrane performances should be performed in non-pressurized FO mode, which can prevent membrane compaction and/or defect and more precisely reflect FO operation conditions.

The density of soil is one of the most important of its engineering properties, and many soil-engineering operations directed toward improving the density characteristics of matecal. This report is a study on relationship between density, permiabilty and other physical properties of compacted soil in various desity grades. The results of the study can be summariged as follow: 1. The optimum moisture content of soil increses with increasing of fine particles and a relationship between both parameter is $w_0=0.1765.n$ Where, n is passing percentage from #200 sieve. 2. The porosity of soil increases with increasing of optimum water content as $e=aw_0+b$ without having relation to compaction ratio. 3. The increment of permeability of soil is high when the compaction ratio is increased and the phenomenon is conspicuous in case of course soil and non-plastic soil. 4. The permeability of soil decreases with increasing of optrimum water content and the phenomenon is conspicuous when compaction ratio decreases. And the permeability is almost constant when optimum water content is more than 25 percent, even though compaction ratio changes. 5. The permeablity of soil increanses when the amount of fine particles is very few, the permeability is almost constant as being impervious condition without having relation to compaction ratio when there in more than 90 percent of fine particles(less than #200 sieve).

투과도는 다공질 암석 내에서 유체의 유동 특성을 나타내는 중요한 매개변수로서 일반적으로 코어 시료의 유체 유동실험을 통해 산출된다. 하지만, 유체 유동실험을 위해서는 별도의 실험장치가 필요하며, 투과도가 낮을 경우 많은 시간이 소요될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 일련의 투과도 측정 실험 없이 시료의 건조과정만으로 투과도를 도출하기 위해 유체투과도, 공극률, 건조율간의 상관관게를 분석하였다. 공극률은 표면건조 포화시료를 건조시키면서 무게 변화를 연속적으로 측정하는 건조 모니터링 방법을 이용하여 산출하였으며, 건조율은 물 포화율에 따른 시료의 무게 변화율로부터 구했다. 70 ~ 670 mD의 투과도를 보이는 6개의 베레아 사암을 이용해 회귀분석한 결과 공극률 및 건조율로부터 다공성 사암의 투과도를 예측할 수 있는 새로운 경험식을 도출하였다.

Hydrophilic and hydrophobic polyethersulfone (PES)-zinc oxide (ZnO) sublayers were prepared by loading of ZnO nanoparticles into PES matrix. Both porosity and hydrophilicity of the hydrophilic sublayer were increased upon addition of hydrophilic ZnO, while these were decreased for the hydrophobic sublayer. In addition, the results demonstrated that the hydrophilic membrane exhibited smaller structural parameter (S value or S parameter or S), which is beneficial for improving pure water permeability and decreasing mass transfer resistance. In contrast, a higher S parameter was obtained for the hydrophobic membrane. With a 2 M NaCl as DS and DI water as FS, the pure water flux of hydrophilic TFN0.5 membrane was increased from $21.02L/m^2h$ to $30.06L/m^2h$ and decreased for hydrophobic TFN0.5 membrane to $14.98L/m^2h$, while the salt flux of hydrophilic membrane increased from $10.12g/m^2h$ to $17.31g/m^2h$ and decreased for hydrophobic TFN0.5 membrane to $3.12g/m^2h$. The increment in pure water permeability can be ascribed to reduction in S parameter, which resulted in reduced internal concentration polarization (ICP). The current study provides a feasible and low cost procedure to decrease the ICP in FO processes.

In this work, the hydromagnetic and thermal characteristics of natural convection flow in a vertical parallel plate micro-porous-channel with suction/injection is analytically studied in the presence of Hall current by taking the temperature jump and the velocity slip at the wall into account. The governing equations, exhibiting the physics of the flow formation are displayed and the exact analytical solutions have been obtained for momentum and energy equations under relevant boundary conditions. The impact of distinct admissible parameters such as Hartmann number, Hall current parameter, permeability parameter, suction/injection parameter, fluid wall interaction parameter, Knudsen number and wall-ambient temperature ratio on the flow formation is discussed with the aid of line graphs. In particular, as rarefaction parameter on the micro-porous-channel surfaces increases, the fluid velocity increases and the volume flow rate decreases for injection/suction.

가역투자율을 이용하여 차세대 에너지 설비 재료로 사용되는 첨단 페라이트강의 잔여수명을 비파괴적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 가역투자율 측정법은 가역투자율 값이 자기 히스테리시스 루프의 미분과 동일하다는 이론을 기반으로 하게 된다. 측정 원리는 한 가진진동수로 가변된 락-인 증폭기를 사용하여 탐지코일에 유도된 조화성분들의 진폭 값을 기본으로 한다. 가역투자율의 피크 간격, 비이커스 경도 그리고 인장강도는 시효된 샘플들에서 시효시간이 증가함에 따라서 감소하였다. 가역투자율의 피크 간격과 라손-밀러 파라미터의 관계를 통해 첨단 페라이트강의 잔여수명을 비파괴적으로 예측하는 것이 가능해진다.

소프트 콘택트렌즈의 산소투과성은 눈의 생리적 반응을 고려할 때 각막의 건강 상태를 결정하는 주요 파라미터이다. 이 연구의 목적은 폴라로그래피 방법을 이용하여 두께 기준에 따른 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 산소투과성을 평가하는데 있다. 렌즈의 두께는 접촉식과 비접촉식 방법으로 측정하였고, 정확도와 신뢰도를 평가하기 위하여 Bland-Altman 분석을 하였다. 정확도는 비접촉식 방법으로 측정한 중심 두께 기준의 산소투과성에서 높은 반면, 신뢰도는 접촉식 방법으로 측정한 중심 두께 기준의 산소투과성에서 높았다. 이 결과는 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 두께 측정방법과 기준에 따라 산소투과성이 다르며, 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 두께 측정은 비접촉식 방법이 보다 더 합리적임을 보여준다. 따라서 콘택트렌즈 임상 실무자들은 산소 공급 능력에 대한 데이터를 해석하거나 인용할 경우, 방법론 사이의 기본적 차이를 고려하여야 한다.

적층형 chip inductor 소재인 NiCuZn ferrite의 제조 공정 조건 및 조성을 선정하였다. NiCuZn ferrite의 NiO 함량이 증가할 수록 저온 소결에 필요한 Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$ 결핍량은 점차 증가하였고, NiO 함량과 Co$_{3}$O$_{4}$ 첨가량을 변화하여 투자율을 12 ~ 562 범위에서 제어할 수 있었다. NiCuZn ferrite의 투자율이 562에서 60으로 변화함에 따라서 Q$_{max}$ 주파수는 3 MHz에서 50 MHz 범위로 제어할 수 있었다. 이때 Q$_{max}$ 주파수(Y)와 투자율(X)은 log Y = 4.2-1.4 log X의 상관관계를 나타내었다.
