$C_f/SiC$ composites were prepared via a process combining chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) and precursor infiltration pyrolysis (PIP), wherein silicon carbide matrices were infiltrated into 2.5D carbon preforms. The obtained composites exhibited porosities of 20 vol % and achieved strengths of 244 MPa in air at room temperature and 423 MPa at $1300^{\circ}C$ under an Ar atmosphere. Carbon fiber pull-out was rarely observed in the fractured surfaces, although intermediate layers of pyrolytic carbon of 150 nm thickness were deposited between the fiber and matrix. Fatigue fracture was observed after 1380 cycles under 45 MPa stress at $1000^{\circ}C$. The fractured samples were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy to observe the distributed phases.

The waterhammer has recently become more important because the pumping stations were big and the systems conveying the fluid through the large and long transmission pipelines were complex. When the pumps are started or stopped for the operation or tripped due to the power failure, the hydraulic transients occur as a result of the sudden change in velocity As the pressure waves are propagating between the pumping station and the distributing reservoir, the pressure inside the pipe drops to the liquid vapor pressure with the pipeline profile, at which time a vapor cavity forms, and finally the column separation occurs. If the pressure in the pipe is less than the atmospheric pressure, the pipe can be collapsed and destroyed after the water columns separated by the vapor cavity rejoin. During the reverse flow, the pressure is so abnormally increased at the pumping station that the accident of flooding may happen due to the failure of system. In this paper, the field tests on the waterhammer by the startup, stoppage, and power failure of a centrifugal pump were carried out for Yongma transmission pumping station in Seoul. The experimental results were compared with that of the numerical calculations, in which results the procedure of controlled pump normal shut-down and the two-step closing mode of controlling the ball valve for pump emergency stop are proposed to reduce the pressure surge.

In this study, we investigated the WVTRs Properties of inorganic thin composite films(ITCFs) to be newly adopted as the passivation layer of the OLED to replace the inorganic compound material Because we thought that inorganic compound materials were limited to enhance the barrier property of thin film. So, ITCFs were fabricated by mixing the cooperated material with the base material. And then, ITCFs were deposited onto the plastic substrate using the electron beam evaporation system and the water vapor transmission rates(WVTRs) were measured using the Mocon equipment. As a result of the WVTR measurement, we could analyze the WVTR values for various ITCFs. ITCFs had a remarkably lower value than the inorganic compound film. Through the analysis of thin film, we can understand the crystal structure and mixed amount. Therefore, ITCFs can be used as the inorganic passivation layers of OLED with the inorganic compound film.

High-quality one-dimensional GaN nanorods and nanowires were synthesized on Ni-coated c-plan sapphire substrate using halide vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE). Their structure and optical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence techniques. Full substrate coverage of densely packed, uniform, straight and aligned one-dimensional GaN nanowires with a diameter of 80nm were grown at $700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. The X-ray diffraction patterns, transmission electron microscopic image, and selective area electron diffraction patterns indicate that the one-dimensional GaN nanostructures are a pure single crystalline and preferentially oriented in the [001] direction. We observed high optical quality of GaN nanowires by photoluminescence analysis.

Carbon nanotubes on metal(SUS304) substrates were synthesized by using micro-wave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition at $650^{\circ}C$ with gas mixture CH$_4$(11%) and H$_2$(89%). Their structure was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Raman spectroscopy was also used to justify the structure and crystallinity of graphite sheets. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy images clearly showed carbon nanotubes to be multwalled. The measured turn-on field and current density obtained from I-V measurement were 4.4 V/$\mu \textrm{m}$ and $8.4\times10^1\mu\textrm{A}/\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

In order to evaluate the water ingress to URD power cables with the jacketing materials and the cable structures, water vapor transmission (WVT) tests were carried out by the ASTM and the TEPCO's specification. All polyolefin compounds showed the superior water suppression to conventional PVC. Especially, linear polyethylenes have very low WVT. In case of cable structures, Allaminate cables showed the significant water suppression due to the watertight structure. Accordingly, it can be concluded that jacketing material and cable structure play an important role in the water suppression of URD power cables.

In order to replace the jacket material for URD power cables, the 6 kinds of polyethylene compounds were manufactured and evaluated. The characteristics of the compounds were investigated by water vapor transmission (WVT) test, thermal and mechanical test. In WVT test, all the polyethylene compounds showed the superior water resistance to conventional PVC. The molecular structure and density of polyethylene play an important role in WVT. Also, the polyethylene compounds showed the suitable characteristics in thermal and mechanical test. Especially, the linear polyethylene compounds showed the superior characteristics to LDPE ones. Due to the fillers in compounds, the abrasion resistance was decreased and the cut-through resistance was increased. From this study, it can be considered that the polyethylene compounds may be suitable to jacket material for URD power cables.

Moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) is an important item for many applications of polymer breathable thin film. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film strength of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance (ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film MVTR influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that extruder speed and stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film strength, respectively. The best results of film MVTR were obtained at higher extruder speed and stretching ratio.

This study evaluates the changes of the subjective hand, preference, comfort and mechanical properties of tricot based artificial suede made from sea-island type micro fibers according to raising condition. The subjective hand and the preference of raised suede for jacket were rated by the 20's and 30's women experts according to raising cycles. Comfort properties were evaluated by air permeability, water vapor transmission, and thermal transmission. Mechanical properties were measured by the KES-FB system. The subjective hand of artificial suede was categorized into three hand factors: smoothness, warmness and thickness. Smoothness, warmness and thickness perception increased with raising cycles which affected hand preference and luxuriousness perception. The thickness and wale density of suede increased with the number of raising. Suede became more compact and less pliable and less stretchable due to increased fabric thickness; in addition, the surface of suede became smoother and compressive since the surface evenness of suede improved with smaller fiber fineness and an increased amount of naps covered the base fabric. Furthermore, water vapor transmission decreased and thermal insulation increased. The best raising conditions for artificial suede was four cycles in which artificial suede was preferred without changes in physical properties.
