A new process for deinking of colored offset newsprint, i.e. enzyme treatment in cooperation with ultrasonic wave was developed in the present study. The physical characteristics such as fiber length, coarseness, crystallinity index of the deinked pulps were investigated and the sugar residues released from the treatment were analyzed. It was found that colored offset newsprint could be deinked effectively by cellulase treatment when ultrasonic wave was applied. The brightness increased by 5% ISO over that of control experiment and the pigment content was reduced markedly. Though the ultrasonic wave had little effect on the strength and crystallinity of the pulp, the treatment of enzyme combined with ultrasonic wave reduced the coarseness and fiber length to some extent. It was also found that ultrasonic wave could accelerate the hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose during the cellulase treatment.

In the semiconductor and the optical industry a new transport system which can replace the common system is required. The common systems are driven by magnetic field and conveyer belt. The magnetic field damages semiconductor and contact force scratches the optical lens. The ultrasonic wave driven system solve these problem. In this paper the object transport system using the excitation of ultrasonic wave is proposed. The experiments for finding the optimal excitation frequency, finding phase-difference between two ultrasonic wave get orators are performed. The effect of transporting speed according to the change of weight and amplification voltage are verified. In addition, the system performance for actual use is evaluated.

Non-contact technique should be developed for receiving ultrasonic wave for on-line monitoring of processing defects of fiber reinforced composites, since couplant must be applied on composite materials when conventional ultrasonic testing technique was used. Restriction of conventional ultrasonic testing technique was proven by transmitting and receiving ultrasonic wave on CFRP in various direction of wave propagation with various incident angle of ultrasonic beam. Air-coupled transducer and laser interferometer were applied for non-contacting reception of ultrasonic wave in fiber reinforced composite materials. Air-coupled transducer has optimal sensitivity and frequency band of 300kHz has homogeneous characteristics on direction of wave propagation.

The distilled water is used for the ultrasonic wave propagating material in the measurements of broadband ultrasonic attenuation (BUA) that is applied in industrial and medical applications, The acoustic impedance of water is significantly changed with its temperature. Therefore, the quantitative evaluation of BUA with temperature and the ultrasonic wave propagating distance is highly needed. In this study, we evaluated the variation of attenuation with change in temperature. To measure the variation of BUA in the low frequency region at the temperatures, 27$^{\circ}C$, 29$^{\circ}C$, and 31$^{\circ}C$, we tested the Plyethylene, Teflon, MC-Nylon, Urethane specimens and analyzed the center frequency, frequency bandwidth, spectral peak amplitude. The results showed that BUA value appeared to be lower with increasing temperature. This may be due to the fact that the frequency feature of ultrasonic wave is affected by not only the specific gravity, acoustic impedence, but material crystalline, porosity, the distance of ultrasonic wave propagation in water.

This study has been achieved on the characteristics of ultrasonic wave in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel to evaluate the feasibility of ultrasonic nondestructive technique on the assessment of aging degradation. The measured values were used find a relationship between the ultrasonic propagation properties and degradation such as coarsening of carbides and precipitates. The ultrasonic attenuation coefficient was mainly affected by the grain size of prior austenitic phase as well as degradation. In this results, degradation and grain size in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel was able to cope with the changes in ultrasonic wave properties by applying the nondestructive evaluation method

In order to ship low & Intermediate level radioactive waste drums, which have been temporarily stored on site, to a disposal facility, their physical and chemical properties should be evaluated and proven to meet the acceptance guideline prior to their shipment. Ultrasonic velocity method, which has been used to estimate the strength of concrete, can be suggested to evaluate the compressive strength of solidified radioactive waste, which is one of the evaluated properties. The strength is estimated from acoustic velocity. However, a guided wave traveling along a drum is generated when applying ultrasonic method to the drum, and this makes it difficult to analyze the signal due to overlap between transmitted wave through the contents in drum and the guided wave. This paper reported feasibility of ultrasonic method to evaluate of the compressive strength of the solidified LLW. It is observed that the guide wave is greater than transmitted wave, and ultrasonic velocity could be estimated from transmitted wave signal arriving prior to the guided wave

As the necessity of the safety diagnosis of the concrete structure, more reliable ultrasonic technique to qualify the concrete is required. In this study, the artificial surface crack depth is measured using several types of the ultrasonic probes. As results, the horizontal shear wave probe is most useful to determine the crack depth compared to the other probes. For the surface wave probe, the ultrasonic wave path is changed with the surface crack depth.

In this paper, the superposition of ultrasonic signals which were generated by multi-source in a transformer was presented. For analysis of ultrasonic superposition, V$_{peak-peak}$ and pulse number of ultra-sonic signal were used. As a result, the wave form of ultrasonic superposition was classified into three types ; First type was the wave form whose V$_{peak-peak}$ was increased by the superposition of each signal's V$_{peak-peak}$. Second type was wave form whose V$_{peak-peak}$ was decreased by the superposition of each signal's V$_{peak-peak}$. And the other type was wave form whose peals were two or mere. And V$_{peak-peak}$ of superposed ultrasonic wave wads mostlv increased or decreased and pulse number of supe게osed u1trasonic wave was mostly increased.y increased.

There is extensive tubing pipe in the nuclear power plant under high temperature and pressure. Erosion and corrosion defects are expected on this tubing pipe due to environmental and mechanical factors. In this study, Guided Ultrasonic Wave technique was applied to detect defects. The technique explores the advantages of the Guided Ultrasonic Wave method that inspects along the wall of the pipe and can travel long distances, providing rapid collection of data. This paper presents a case study of the Guided Ultrasonic Wave testing of 3/8" tubing pipe. This study offers to understand detected signals through correlation between amplitude and depth of defects.
