A technology of hardening porous materials of titan powders has been elaborated. The technology is based on passing alternating current with duration of ${\sim}10^{-1}{\ldots}10^1$ s through porous ($35{\ldots}40%$) blanks made by method of Sintering by Electric Discharge (SED) by passing a pulse of current with duration of ${\sim}10^{-5}{\ldots}10^{-3}$ s. The influence of technological regimes of porous blanks treatment on their structure and properties is investigated. Geometry and dimension of contact necks between powder particles of obtained samples are evaluated. Variations of porosity and strengths as well as microstructure of porous samples materials before and after treatment are investigated. Optimum range of treatment technological regimes is determined within which porosity of $30{\ldots}35%$ with maximum strength values.

Recently, number of studies for porous silicon have been investigated by many researchers. Multistructured porous silicon (PSi), distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) PSi, has been a topic of interest, because of its unique optical properties. DBR PSi were prepared by an electrochemical etch of $P^{{+}{+}}$-type silicon wafer of resistivity between 0.1 $m{\Omega}cm$ with square wave current density, resulting two different refractive indices. In this work, We have fabricated a simple and portable organic vapor-sensing device based on DBR porous silicon and investigated the optical characteristics of DBR porous silicon. DBR porous silicon have been characterized by FT-IR, Ocean optics 2000 spectrometer. The device used DBR PSi chip has been demonstrated as an excellent gas sensor, showing a great senstivity to a toxic vapor (TEP, DMMP, DEEP) at room temperature.

The purpose of this study is to ascertain the void ratio, permeability coefficient and compressive strength of porous polymer concretes with unsaturated polyester. The porous polymer concretes using unsaturated polyester with polymer binder contents of 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 and 5.5% are prepared, and tested for void ratio, permeability coefficient and compressive strength. As a result, void ratio and permeability coefficient of porous polymer concrete decrease with increasing polymer binder content. However, the compressive strength of porous polymer concrete increase with increasing polymer binder content. The compressive strength of porous polymer concrete decrease with increasing permeability coefficient.

In this paper, the pressure drops were investigated according to the sintered porous wick structure in loop heat pipe(LHP) by theoretical analysis. LHP has the wick only in evaporator for the circulation of working fluid, so utilizes porous wick structure which pore diameter is very small for large capillary force. This paper investigates the effects of different parameters on the pressure drops of the LHP such as particle diameter of sintered porous wick, wick porosity, vapor line diameter, thickness of wick and heating capacity. Working fluid is water and the material of sintered porous wick is copper. According to the these different parameters, capillary pressure, pressure drop in wick were analized by theoretical design method of LHP.

Porous zirconia ceramics are widely considered to be important due to their unique properties and potential applications. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to produce porous zirconia ceramics. The linear shrinkage of the prepared porous zirconia ceramics could be controlled to 4% by incorporating pre-sintered zirconia granules and hollow polymeric spheres. We also investigated the effect of pre-sintered zirconia granules on the microstructure and the properties, such as the porosity, pore distribution, and bending strength of the porous zirconia ceramics.

A novel production method for porous metal components has been developed by applying powder space holder (PSH) method to metal powder injection molding (MIM) process. The PSH-MIM method has an industrial competitive advantage that is capable of net-shape manufacturing the micro-sized porous metal products with complicated shapes and controlled porosity and pore size. In this study, the small impeller with homogeneous micro-porous structure was manufactured by the PSH-MIM method. The effects of combinations in size and fraction of PMMA particle on dimensional tolerance and variation of sintered porous specimens were investigated. It was concluded that the PSH-MIM method could manufacture commercially microporous metal components with high dimensional accuracy.

There are many studies about submerged structures or porous wave absorbers to decrease damage of coast and structures. Submerged structures and porous wave absorber are decreasing energy of incoming wave by reflecting or dissipation with changing depth or with porous rubble mound. This study addresses the reflection and transmission of long wave from a trapezoidal breakwater and a vertical porous wave absorber at the same time. A systematic shape transfer is derived to determine wave reflection and transmission. And periodic solutions are matched at the slope and the front face of the absorber by assuming continuity of pressure and mass. The transmission coefficient is determined as a function of parameters describing the incoming waves, transmitting waves through the trapezoidal breakwater and the absorber characteristics.

This study is performed to examine pH reduction by neutralization treatment and curing condition of porous concrete using rice straw ash for planting. Test results show that pH of porous concrete without neutralization treatment in the dry and water curing is 10.34 ∼ 10.57 and 9.42 ∼ 9.72, respectively. pH of porous concrete by neutralization treatment in the dry and water curing is 9.72 ∼ 10.03 and 9.00 ∼ 9.37, respectively. Accordingly, the best method for pH reduction of porous concrete for planting is to use water curing and neutralization treatment.

Recently, number of studies for porous silicon (PSi) have been investigated by many researchers. Multistructured porous silicon such as a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) PSi, has been a topic of interest, because of its unique optical properties. DBR PSi were prepared by using an electrochemical etch of $P{^+}{^+}$-type silicon wafer with resistivity between 0.1 and $10m{\Omega}cm$. The electrochemical etch with square wave current density results in two different refractive indices in the porous layer. In this work, DBR porous silicon chips for a simple and portable organic vapor-sensing device have fabricated. The optical characteristics of DBR PSi have been investigated. DBR porous silicon have been characterized by FT-IR and Ocean optics 2000 spectrometer. The device used DBR PSi chip has been demonstrated as an excellent gas sensor, showing a great senstivity to organic vapor at room temperature.

Second harmonic generation was measured in porous silicon superlattices surface which were made by changing and anodization current density and the anodization time periodically in the process of obtaining porous silicon. The technique of second harmonic generation is used as a probe to the surface of porous silicon superlattice by using Nd:YAG laser. We have investigated the surface structure and nonlinear-optics properties of porous silicon superlattice.
