An experimental study was performed to discover the effect of adsorbed moisture on the rolling resistance behavior of pure silver-coated 52100 bearing steel. Plasma surface modifications were performed on the silver-coated specimen to change the wetting characteristics. Experiments using a thrust ball bearing-type rolling test-rig were performed under vacuum, dry air and various humidity conditions. Results showed that the changes in the wetting characteristics influenced remarkably on the silver particle agglomeration and resulted in the different behavior of rolling resistance with humidity.

It is pointed out that non-wetting behavior of liquid Zn alloy occurs on high-tensile strength steels, which usually contain Si and Mn. There have been a lot of investigations to improve the above wettability of liquid Zn alloy with steels containing Si and Mn. Although those studies evaluated the wettability qualitatively by observation of the surface of steels galvanized by Zn or exfoliation test of Zn with substrate steels and so on, it is required to evaluate the wettability of liquid Zn with steels by measuring contact angle, work of adhesion, spreading velocity etc. which are usually used to assessment of general wetting behavior. In the present work, we evaluated the wettability of liquid Zn with steels containing Si and Mn by applying a sessile drop method to measure the change in contact angle and diameter of liquid Zn droplet wetted on steels.

비정질 PEEK 필름의 self-bonding강도는 접합시의 공정변수(시간, 온도, 그리고 압력)와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 공정변수의 효과를 규명하기 위하여 각기 다른 접합조건하에서 개발된 시편들의 self-bonding강도를 single lap-shear test를 통하여 측정된 각각의 전단 응력(shear strength)으로 나타내었다. 개발된 self-bonding강도는 접합온도가 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며, 접합시간의 1/4승에 일차함수적으로 비례증가하였다. 접합공정 중의 압력의 효과는 단지 초기 접합단계인 wetting에 기여하였을 뿐 self-bonding강도 자체에는 거의 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 사려되었다. 결론적으로 비정질 PEEK 필름의 self-bonding현상은 현장에서의 실제 접합공정에서 어떠한 접착재료의 사용없이도 모재와 같은 강도를 개발하는데 무한한 가능성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다.

일반적으로 도로의 하부인 노상층은 불포화토 상태로 존재하기 때문에 함수비의 변동을 예측하기 위해서는 불포화 함수특성곡선(soil-water characteristic curve)의 추정은 필수적이다. 따라서, 국내 대표적인 노상토인 다짐된 화강풍화계열 노상토를 대상으로 함수특성을 정량화하기 위하여 pressure plate 장치를 활용하여 건조 및 습윤 이력과정의 실험을 각각 수행한 후 이를 토대로 불포화토 함수특성에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 실험결과, 화강 풍화 노상토의 함수비를 좌우하는 흡수력이 건조와 습윤 과정에 있어 서로 다른 수치를 나타내었고 흡수력에 따른 불포화 투수계수와 습윤용적 그리고 확산 등의 흐름특성을 통하여 이력(hysteresis)을 확인하였다. 이를 토대로 도로하부의 연중흡수력을 추정하였다.

불포화토를 연구하는데 있어 함수특성곡선과 투수계수방정식을 결정하는 것은 필수요소이나 이는 쉬운 일이 아니다. 본 연구에서는 함수특성곡선과 투수계수방정식을 얻기 위한 새로운 시험장치가 개발되었다. 개발된 시험장치를 사용하여 두 종류의 토사에 대해 포화투수계수시험과 함수특성곡선을 결정하기 위한 시험을 실시하였다. 시험진행순서는 먼저 포화투수계수시험을 실시한 후, 함수특성곡선의 건조과정에 대한 시험을 실시하고 다음으로 함수특성곡선의 습윤과정에 대한 시험순으로 진행하였다. 시험결과에 의하면 건조과정의 함수특성곡선과 습윤과정의 함수특성곡선 간에는 이력현상이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 투수계수방정식의 결정은 시험으로부터 얻어진 포화투수계수와 함수특성곡선 이용하여 구하는 이론적인 방법을 사용하였다.

국내 풍화토사면의 경우 순수 균질 사면보다는 대부분 점토 및 세립분이 섞인 비균질 상태로 존재하며 이러한 함유비율은 풍화도 및 지역에 따라 다르다. 따라서 세립분함량 변화에 따른 불포화사면에의 분석을 위해, 화강풍화토(SW)에 일정비율의 세립분(CH)을 섞어 성형한 시료를 통해 GCTS pressure plates을 이용한 함수특성곡선 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 및 침투해석결과 강우지속시간에 따른 포화깊이의 증가율은 세립분이 증가할수록 또한 상대밀도가 증가할수록 작아졌다. 또한 침투해석과 포화 및 불포화강도정수를 이용한 사면 안정성 해석결과(SLOPE/W), 전반적으로 세립분함량 $10\sim15%$의 범위까지는 침투깊이 증가에 따른 흡수력 변화가 안전율에 지대한 영향을 미치는 반면 이를 초과하는 경우(>15%)에는 오히려 세립분함량 증가에 따른 강도정수의 변화가 크게 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.

This study investigates the feasibility of adopting the results of the UC (unconfined compression) test to assess the total cohesion of the unsaturated soil. A series of laboratory tests were conducted on samples of unsaturated lateritic soils of northern Taiwan. Specifically, the unconfined compression test was combined with the pressure plate test to obtain the unconfined compression strength and its matric suction of the samples. Soil samples were first compacted at designated water content and then subjected to the wetting process for saturation and the subsequent drying process to its target suction using the apparatus developed by the authors. The correlations among the matric suction, the unconfined compression strength and the total cohesion were studied. As a result, a simplified method to estimate the total cohesion using the unconfined compressive strength is suggested. The calculated results compare reasonably with the unsaturated triaxial test results. Current results show good performance; however, further study is warranted.

Various types of optical materials and devices used in special environments must satisfy durability and optical properties. In order to improve the durability of zinc sulfide multispectral (MS ZnS) substrates with transmission wavelengths from visible to infrared, Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass was used as a sealing material to bond the MS ZnS substrates. Wetting tests of the Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass were conducted to analyze flowability as a function of temperature, by considering the glass transition temperature (T_g) and softening temperature (T_s). In the wetting test, the viscous flow of the chalcogenide glass sample was analyzed according to the temperature. After placing the chalcogenide glass disk between MS ZnS substrates (20 × 30 mm), the sealing test was performed at a temperature of 485 ℃ for 60 min. Notably, it was found that the Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass sealed the MS ZnS substrates well. After the MS ZnS substrates were sealed with chalcogenide glass, they showed a transmission of 55 % over 3~12 ㎛. The tensile strength of the sealed MS ZnS substrates with Ge-Sb-Se-based chalcogenide glass was analyzed by applying a maximum load of about 240 N, confirming its suitability as a sealing material in the far infrared range.

The corrosion protection methods of reinforcing steel in concrete are the various methods such as increasing thickness of cover concrete, using of reinforcing bars coated with epoxy, dosage of corrosion inhibitor as concrete admixture, cathodic protection method and etc. In this study, the performance of corrosion protection was investigated for the test specimens using corrosion inhibitors and cathodic protection, respectively. For this purpose, the accelerated corrosion tests for reinforcing steel were conducted according to the periodic cycles(140 days) of wetting($65^{\circ}C$, 90% R.H) and drying period($15^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H) for the test specimens. As a result, it can be concluded from the test that the effect of corrosion inhibitor was found to be variable with products, the cathodic protection method was found to be independent of salt concentration in concrete.
