The U metal chips generated in developing nuclear fuel and a gamma radioisotope shield have been stored under immersion of water in KAERI. When the water of the storing vessels vaporizes or drains due to unexpected leaking, the U metal chips are able to open to air. A new oxidation treatment process was raised for a long time safe storage with concepts of drying under vacuum, evaporating the containing water and organic material with elevating temperature, and oxidizing the uranium metal chips at an appropriate high temperature under conditions of controlling the feeding rate of oxygen gas. In order to optimize the oxidation process the uranium metal chips were completely dried at higher temperature than $300^{\circ}C$ and tested for oxidation at various temperatures, which are $300^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, and $500^{\circ}C$. When the oxidation temperature was $400^{\circ}C$, the oxidized sample for 7 hours showed a temperature rise of $60^{\circ}C$ in the self-ignition test. But the oxidized sample for 14 hours revealed a slight temperature rise of $7^{\circ}C$ representing a stable behavior in the self-ignition test. When the temperature was $500^{\circ}C$, the shorter oxidation for 7 hours appeared to be enough because the self-ignition test represented no temperature rise. By using several chemical analyses such as carbon content determination, X-ray deflection (XRD), Infrared spectra (IR) and Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) on the oxidation treated samples, the results of self-ignition test of new oxidation treatment process for U metal chip were interpreted and supported.

Hexadecane and exfoliated graphite nanoplate (xGnP)composite was prepared as a shape-stabilized phase change material (SSPCM) in a vacuum to develope thermal energy storage. The Hexadecane as an organic phase change material (PCM) is very stable against phase separation of PCM and has a melting point at $18^{\circ}C$ that is under the thermally comfortable temperature range in buildings. The xGnP is a porous carbon nanotube material with high thermal conductivity. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transformation infrared spectrophotometer (FT-IR)were used to confirm the chemical and physical stability of Hexadecane/xGnP SSPCM. In addition, thermal properties were determined by Deferential scanning calorimeter(DSC) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The specific heat of Hexadecane/xGnPSSPCM was $10.0J/g{\cdot}K$ at $21.8^{\circ}C$. The melting temperature range of melting and freezing were found to be $16-25^{\circ}C$ and $17-12^{\circ}C$. At this time, the laten heats of melting and freezing were 96.4J/g and 94.8J/g. The Hexadecane was impregnated into xGnP as much about 48.8% of Hexadecane/xGnP SSPCM's mass fraction.

The automatic welding systems, have received much attention in recent years, because they are highly suitable not only to increase the quality and productivity, but also to decrease manufacturing time and cost for a given product. Automatic welding work in semiconductor or space industry to be carried out in pipe line and butt joint mostly and plasma arc welding(PAW) is actively applied. To get the desired quality welds in automated welding system is challenging, a mathematical model is needed that has complete control over the relevant process parameters in order to obtain the required mechanical properties. However, In various industries the welding process mathematical model is not fully formulated for the process parameter and on the welding conditions, therefore only partial variables can be predicted. Therefore, this paper investigates the interaction between the welding parameters and mechanical properties for predicting the weld bead geometry by analyzing the S/N ratio.

The interaction of plasma with liquid generates nitrogen species including nitrite (NO⁻₂). Therefore, the color developing capacity of plasma-treated water (PTW) as a nitrite source for meat curing was investigated in this study. PTW, which is generated by surface dielectric barrier discharge in air, and the increase of plasma treatment time resulted in increase of nitrite concentration in PTW. The PTW used in this study contains 46 ppm nitrite after plasma treatment for 30 min. To evaluate the effect of PTW on the cured meat color, meat batters were prepared under three different conditions (control, non-cured meat batter; PTW, meat batter cured with PTW; Sodium nitrite, meat batter cured with sodium nitrite). The meat batters were vacuum-packaged and cooked in a water-bath at 80℃ for 30 min. The typical color of cured meat developed in cooked meat batter treated with sodium nitrite or PTW. The lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) values were similar in all conditions, whereas, the redness (a*) values of cooked meat batter with PTW and sodium nitrite (p<0.05) were significantly higher than the control. These data indicate that PTW can be used as a nitrite source in the curing process of meat without addition of other nitrite sources.

Dispersion-strengthened copper with $TiB_2$ was produced by ball-milling and spark plasma sintering (SPS).Ball-milling was performed at a rotation speed of 300rpm for 30 and 60min in Ar atmosphere by using a planetary ball mill (AGO-2). Spark-plasma sintering was carried out at $650^{\circ}C$ for 5min under vacuum after mechanical alloying. The hardness of the specimens sintered using powder ball milled for 60min at 300rpm increased from 16.0 to 61.8 HRB than that of specimen using powder mixed with a turbular mixer, while the electrical conductivity varied from 93.40% to 83.34%IACS. In the case of milled powder, hardness increased as milling time increased, while the electrical conductivity decreased. On the other hand, hardness decreased with increasing sintering temperature, but the electrical conductiviey increased slightly

Ga doped ZnO (GZO)/Al bi-layered films were deposited on the glass substrate by RF and DC magnetron sputtering and then vacuum annealed at different temperatures of 100, 200 and $300^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes to consider the effects of annealing temperature on the structural, electrical and optical properties of the films. For all depositions, the thicknesses of the GZO and Al films were kept constant at 95 and 5 nm, respectively, by controlling the deposition time. As-deposited GZO/Al bi-layered films showed a relatively low optical transmittance of 62%, while the films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ showed a higher transmittance of 81%, compared to the other films. In addition, the electrical resistivity of the films was influenced by annealing temperature and the lowest resistivity of $9.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ was observed in the films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$. Due to the increased carrier mobility, 2.35 $cm^2V^{-1}S^{-1}$ of the films. From the experimental results, it can be concluded that increasing the annealing temperature enhanced the optical and electrical properties of the GZO/Al films.

The Sungnyemun roofing tiles were twice disassembled for maintenance work, in 1963 and 1997, and modern tiles were applied in 1997. However, besides differing in visual appearance, the modern tiles had distinctly different physical properties. A study has been carried out on 22 different tiles, including original Sungnyemun tiles, modern tiles applied during maintenance, traditional tiles made by tile-makers, and others, to examine their physical properties, such as bending strength, frost resistance, absorption, whole-rock magnetic susceptibility, chromaticity, differential thermal analysis, and other characteristics. Since the method of making modern tiles involves compressing clay in a vacuum, modern tiles showed relatively greater bending strength and specific gravity, while Sungnyemun tiles and those made by tile-makers, in comparison, demonstrated less bending strength and specific gravity owing to their production method of 'treading,' in which clay is mixed by having someone tread upon it repeatedly. Over time, the absorption rate of the original tile used for Sungyemun gradually decreased from 21% to 14.7%; traditional tiles from tile-makers showed absorption rates of 17%, while the absorption rate of modern tiles was just 1%, which is significantly low. As for frost resistance, Sungnyemun tiles and traditional tiles from tile-makers showed cracking and exfoliation after being subjected to testing 4 or 5 times, while slight cracking was seen on the surface for modern tiles after 1ngy, or 3 times. In other words, no significant difference from influence by frost was found. According to the results of differential thermal analysis, the plastic temperature was shown to have been no less than 1, $on^{\circ}C$ for all types of tile, and cristobalite was measuredthrough XRD analysis from a Sungnyemun female tile applied during maintenance in 1963, which appeared to have been plasticized at between $1,200^{\circ}C{\sim}1,300^{\circ}C$. Based on these research results on the physical properties of tiles from the Sungnyemun roof, a fundamental production method for tiles to be applied in the restoration of Sungnyemun has been identified.

VARTM 공정에서 고분자 수지가 함침 될 때 시간에 따라 섬유보강재가 팽창하여 섬유체적율이 감소하는 현상이 발생한다. 풍력 블레이드와 같은 대형 복합재료 구조물의 경우 섬유체적율의 변동 폭이 커져 제품의 치수가 변하고 기계적 물성이 저하될 뿐 아니라 예측하지 못한 고분자 수지의 사용량이 증가하는 등의 문제점과 경제적인 손실이 발생할 여지가 증가할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 VARTM 공정에서 수지 함침에 따른 섬유 보강재의 팽창 현상에 관한 분석을 통하여 복합재료 액상 성형 공정에서의 섬유 체적율을 조절하는 방안을 모색하였다. 그 결과 유동 선단의 진행에 따라 섬유의 팽창 현상이 크게 두 단계로 구분되어 나타나는 것을 확인하였고 각각의 단계에서 작용하는 힘을 분석함으로써 섬유의 체적율 변화에 관한 현상학적 모델을 제시하였고 1차원 편미분 수치 해석과 연계하여 VARTM공정에서 수지 함침에 따른 섬유 체적율의 변화를 예측하였다.

높은 수율로 CHMI를 제조하는 공정을 개발하기 위한 연구의 일환으로, 공정 중간체 CHMAIE를 합성하는 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. CHMAIE 제조 공정의 중간체인 CHMA 생성반응은 무수 말레인산 용액에 사이크로헥실아민을 점적 투입한 후 반응액을 2시간 동안 숙성시키는 방법으로 완료하였으며, 생성된 CHMA를 $10^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 2.5시간 동안 석출시키면 98.2%의 수율을 얻을 수 있었다. CHMA로부터 CHMAIE를 제조하는 에스테르화 반응의 최적 온도는 $68^{\circ}C$ 이었으며, 이 최적 온도에서의 평형 전화율은 98.5%였다. 에스테르화 반응이 평형에 도달하는 시간은 온도에 따라 감소하며, 최적 온도에서의 평형도달 시간은 약 3시간 정도였다. 최종 생성물 중의 톨루엔은 진공 증류를 통하여 회수할 수 있었다. 톨루엔의 회수율은 증류 온도가 증가함에 따라 증가하였고, 증류 온도 $55^{\circ}C$에서의 톨루엔 회수율은 98%였다.
