Buildings form interior space when part of an external environment is limited by a physical surface. And, the interior space forms an appearance of building when space-defining elements, such as floor, wall, and roof. An appearance or a form of building has a lot of meanings depending on the physical and psychological conditions, as well as symbolism. Especially, the prevailing meaning of form in the modern age was, "Form follows function," was quite different from the meaning of form in the architectural era of Louis I. Kahn, who asserted "Form always supercedes function," when functional modernism was still existed even after some 50 years later. Existing studies on Louis I. Kahn usually analyzed his architectural terminology and philosophical concepts of Centrality, Light, Order, Form, and Design; or they were focused on an overall plane and the principle of composition. The purposes of this study are: (1) to investigate how the formal composition characteristics of building are expressed on skylights; and (2) to demonstrate that the formal composition characteristics of skylights plays an important role in constructing a whole structure of building in relation with other architectural elements.

Aluminum and zinc titanium silicate sol-gel films were fabricated for application of waveguide and the effect of additions of ZnO and $Al_2O_3$ to binary titanium silicate films was investigated. During firing, the films are densified as they shrunk and their refractive index increases in the range of 1.58-1.83 depending on the film composition. The attenuation of the waveguides is not sensitive to changes in composition except for zinc titanium silicate waveguides which have substantially higher attenuation. However, the increase in the attenuation with aging of the waveguides depend upon the composition of waveuides. The addition $Al_2O_3$ or the reduced $SiO_2$ content in the composition appears to slow the deterioration of the waveguides due to the formation of more stable bonds and increased acidity on the film surface. Also, the wavelength dependence of the attenuation of the waveguides varies with composition. The attenuation of the waveguides except for the $65SiO_2{\cdot}35TiO_2$ composition are not Rayleigh scatter limited, suggesting the absorption loss of the waveguides due to the effects of residual carbon and structural defects in the films.

In this study, the effects of powder size and composition on the reflectance of Al-Si based alloys are presented. First, the reflectance of Al-Si bulk and powder are analyzed to confirm the effect of powder size. Results show that the bulk has a higher reflectance than that of powder because the bulk has lower surface defects. In addition, the larger the particle size, the higher is the reflectance because the interparticle space decreases. Second, the effect of composition on the reflectance by the changing composition of Al-Si-Mg is confirmed. Consequently, the reflectance of the alloy decreases with the addition of Si and Mg because dendrite Si and $Mg_2Si$ are formed, and these have lower reflectance than pure Al. Finally, the reflectance of the alloy is due to the scattering of free electrons, which is closely related to electrical conductivity. Measurements of the electrical conductivity based on the composition of the Al-Si-Mg alloy confirm the same tendency as the reflectance.

If you compare recent works in small commercial places along with the terms such as Post-Modernism, Late-Modernism, and Dismantling, to those of 60's and 70's, you will discover for sure that recent works try to model individually with 'surface'. Expressing the responses to the multilateral cultural desires is available through the organization of surface, so are the re-presentationsof classic notions by adding decorations to the vertical walls, which are different from modern constructions that have persisted on only space itself as a main point. These trends are various organizing techniques with forms, decorations, materials, color etc. and made the surface modeling develop. What a 'surface element' means as a concrete notion in a design process in a commercial place is enormous. So, it implies lots of notions and logic, and can be a strong message-conveying means as well as an expressional language. At this point of view, the research was limited to Facade, which is treated as a creational object to a designer all the time in order to study what kind of system the surface organization has in a small commercial place. This is to find out what kind of system the designer uses to make the spatial images, orders and forms through surface, but ultimately it is to discover the designer's basic tecniques that he or she uses when planning. To sum up, we have studied the meanings of the composition and the changes of the organization of Facade to analyze the organizing techniques in Pasad in a small commercial construction which designers planned as material. We have also investigated the organizing techniques of surface by examining and analyzing the elements of Facade organizing techniques, i.e. its form, decoration, material, pattern and color.

The research on surface modification technology has been advanced to improve the properties of engineering materials. Ion implantation is a novel surface modification technology that enhances the mechanical, chemical and electrical properties of substrate's surface using accelerated ions. In this research, nitrogen ions were implanted into AC7A aluminum substrates which would be used as molds for rubber molding. The composition of nitrogenion implanted aluminum and distribution of nitrogen ions were analyzed by Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). To analyze the modified surface, properties such as hardness, friction coefficient, wear resistance, contact angle, and surface roughness were measured. Hardness of ion implanted specimen was higher than that of untreated specimen. Friction coefficient was reduced, and wear resistance was improved. From the experimental results, it can be expected that implantation of nitrogen ions enhances the mechanical properties of aluminum mold.

With the recent popularity of mobile devices, the demand for lithium-ion batteries is increasing. In this study, the surface treatment process for the development of the Al (aluminum) lead tab for positive electrode, a key component of the pouch-type lithium-ion battery, was investigated. Anodizing and sealing processes were tested as surface treatment techniques. It was found that only a sealing process is needed to obtain sufficient adhesive strength. In the present study, an adhesive strength of 17 N/12 mm was achieved by degreasing and etching pretreatment, followed by a sealing process of 10 min duration. This adhesive strength was greater than that achievable using Cr (chromium) surface treatment. Using various surface analysis techniques, the shape and composition of the surface before and after being subjected to the surface treatment were compared and analyzed. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of an eco-friendly lead tab.

The method of passivation for protecting the $Hg_{1-x}Cd_{x}$Te surface is important device fabrication process. Because the surface components are highly reactive leading to its chemical and electrical instability. Especially. the material of detecting for infrared radiation, of which composition is x=0.2 or 0.3, is narrow bandgap semi- conductor. The narrow bandgap semi conductors are largely governed by the properties of the semiconductor surface. The narrow bandgap semi-conductors are largely governed by the properties of the semiconductor surface. The electro-chemical processing of $Hg_{1-x}Cd_{x}$Te allows rigorous control of the surface chemistry and provides an in-suit monitor of surface reaction. So electro-chemical reduction at specific potential can be selectively eliminated the undesirable species on the surface and mainpulated to reproducibly attain the desired stoichiometry. This method shows to assess the quality of chemically treated good $Hg_{1-x}Cd_{x}$Te surface.

The crack in a J85 engine V.G. actuator arm shaft for a bell crank on the engine compressor was investigated. The crack was observed in twenty two shafts during the inspection of 238 shafts. The failure analysis of shaft cracks was performed by chemical composition analysis using ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma) and by fracture surface and microstructure analysis using FE-SEM and optical microscope. The crack initiated from the top and bottom and propagated to the center along the grain boundaries. From the chemical composition analysis, the fractography of the fracture surface and the microstructure, it was found that the failure mechanism of the shafts is the inclusion-related intergranular decohesion crack. The inclusion was found out from MnS particle by EDS(Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy). The crack initiated MnS inclusion in the grain boundary and propagated with the increase of applied shear stress during long operation. In order to prevent the fracture, NDI(Nondestructive inspection) is needed periodically as recommended.

The composition and the properred orientation of Co-Fe-Cr alloy electrodeposits were invesigated according to the electrolysis conditions using sulface bath. The current efficiency and the cathode overpotential decrased noticeably with the increase of Cr content in the bath. As the D.C. current density increased increased, the Cr content in the alloy increasd, while Co content decreased and Fe content remained constant, In the pulse current electrolysis, the Cr content of the alloy increased with the mean current density and off-time and then its content increased mord more noticeably with the peak current density than that of D.C. electrolysis. The preferred orientation of the alloy changed from (220)+(111) to (220) with decreasing cathode overpotential.
