This study was carried out for evaluating correlation of aging level and deformation resistance of asphalt mixtures conditioned by artificial aging treatment. The specimens were made of the short-term aged loose asphalt mixture which was kept in a convection oven at $154^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, and then were artificially aged at $110^{\circ}C$ for 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours for long-term aging. Deformation strength ($S_D$) and large molecular size ratio (LMS(%)) were measured after short-term and each long-term aging treatment to evaluate aging extents of each mixture with aging time using GPC(Gel-permeation chromatograph) test. It is shown that the $S_D$ and LMS(%) were increased with aging time increment, and that LMS(%) quantity and $S_D$ have relatively good correlation each other. This study found that the aged asphalt mixture had better resistance against rutting and it was possible to estimate rutting characteristics of asphalt mixtures by using LMS(%) without a binder recovery.

추진제의 노화 못지 않게 점화제의 노화도 추진 기관 성능에 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 예측된다. 따라서 10년 이상 경과된 활성 모터에서 점화기를 분해하여 노화에 의한 점화제의 성능 변화를 알아보았다. 분석에 사용한 점화제는 II-D Bi-Convex형상의 B-KNO$_3$ 펠렛으로 열량, 자동 점화온도, 기계적 물성의 변화를 관찰하였고, 밀폐 용기(Closed bomb)에서 연소시험을 통하여 노화에 따른 점화알약의 압력변화를 측정하고 이론 값과 비교하였다. 또한 비활성 모타를 이용한 연소시험으로 점화기의 점화지연시간, 최대 압력, 최대 압력 도달시간 등을 측정하고 이론식과 비교하여 노화에 의한 변화를 관찰하였다.

Near infrared reflectance(NIR) spectroscopy was used to determine the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. Cooked rice samples were stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 120 hours, and the degree of retrogradation was measured at every 6 hour during the storage time. Stored cooked rices were freeze-dried, milled and passed through a 100 mesh sieve. Enzymatic method using glucoamylase was used as reference method for the determination of the degree of retrogradation. Spectral differences due to retrogradation of cooked rice were observed at 1434, 1700, 1928, 2100, 2284 and 2320 nm. 32 samples of which moisture content were below 5% were used for calibration set, and 16 samples were used for validation set. High correlations were achieved between degree of retrogradation determined by conventional enzymatic method and by NIR with multiple correlation coefficient of 0.9753, and a standard error of calibration(SEC) of 3.64%. Comparable results were obtained with 3.91% of standard error of prediction(SEP), when the calibration equation was applied to independent group of samples of which moisture contents were in the range of calibration set. But when the calibration equation was applied to samples of which moisture contents were outer range of calibration set, SEP and bias were increased and correlation coefficient was decreased. The determination of degree of retrogradation was affected by sample moisture content. To determine degree of retrogradation of cooked rice by NIR using this calibration equation, it was suggested that sample moisture content should be controlled to below 5%.

In this study, for a radiator hose made of carbon black filled EPDM(ethylene-propylene diene monomer) rubber, a measuring method of crosslink density was established to analyze the aging behaviors under thermo-oxidative stresses. At $125^{\circ}C$, the crosslink density of the rubber specimens decreased slightly in the initial stage, but increased with increasing the aging time. Such variation in crosslink density was similar to that of tensile strength. This might be due to the formation of sulphoxide crosslinks as well as to additional crosslinks made by the reaction of unvalcunized sulfurs. A high temperature aging of rubber specimens at $180^{\circ}C$ caused a slight increase in crosslink density while it did a large decrease in tensile strength and elongation. With aging at high temperature, the formation of carbonyl groups in EPDM molecule chain and formation of sulphoxide crosslink, rather than the crosslink density variation itself, had a large influence on such changes in mechanical property.

This study aims to validate the Attitudes to Aging Questionnaire(AAQ), which was recently developed in foreign countries, for Korean elderly. Using a sample of 320 older individuals living in Seoul, Gyeonggi, Chungcheong areas, statistical analyses including item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, convergent validity analysis were attempted to AAQ which composed of three factors with 24 items. In result, the three factor model of AAQ(including psychosocial loss, physical change, and psychological growth) were reconstructed in which new three factors(psychological loss, social loss, and change and growth in body and mind) were confirmed and three items were deleted. Reliability and convergent validity of AAQ-21 were confirmed. AAQ-21 would be useful to researchers and practitioners working with older adults for systematically assessing the attitudes to aging of older individuals and thus contribute to development of social policies and welfare programs for the elderly.

종이는 제조 후 시간의 경과에 따라 노화가 야기되기 시작하며 이에 수반되는 현상으로서 종이의 기계적 강도 손실 및 종이의 색 변화를 들 수 있다. 종이의 노화 현상은 주로 빛, 열, 대기 오염물질, 미생물, 곤충 및 화학약품 등의 외부 인자들에 의해 종이 내에서의 가수 분해 또는 산화작용을 발생시키며 이는 종이의 폭넓은 이용올 제한하는 중요한 원인이 되고 있다. 종이의 노화기작은 주로 산 가수분해 및 산화작용 그리고 가교결합 둥으로 해석되고 있다. 이는 종이의 주 구성요소인 셀룰로오스의 수산기가 반웅하여 카르보닐기를 형성하면 서 저분자화 되거나 산소에 의해 산화되면서 저분자화 되어 종이의 강도적 손실이 일어난다 고 보고되고 있으며 종이의 황색화(Yellowing) 현상은 주원인이 종이에 잔존하고 있는 리그 년이 빛과 열에 의해 반응하여 산화됨으로써 야기된다고 설명되고 있다. 즉, 열이나 자외선 및 가시광션의 조사로 인한 셀룰로오스 및 기타 종이 구성물의 산화에 의해 종이가 퇴색되 거나 강도가 저하되는 현상이 일어나게 된다. 특히 이러한 노화 거동은 상온의 경우에서는 펄프와 종이의 황색화가 천천히 일어나지만 옹도가 점차 올라갈수록 그 속도는 빨라진다. 종이가 노화되면서 일어나는 산화반용은 주로 대기 중의 산소와 접촉하기 쉬운 표변에서부 터 발생하기 쉽다. 열처리를 통해 표면에서의 산화 작용은 촉진되고 종이의 구성원소의 결 합에 화학적 변화가 야기된다. 이를 분석하기 위해서 모든 원소가 독특한 결합에너지를 가 지고 있다는 것에 착안 시료 표면에 특정 x-선 및 전자빔을 입사하여 방출하는 광전자의 에너지를 측정함으로써 시료 표면의 조성 및 화학적인 결합상태를 알 수 있는 ESCA ( (Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis)를 이용하였다 .. ESCA는 주로 표면 원소의 규 명 및 정량분석과 화학결합 상태의 정성, 정량 분석, 깊이에 따른 원소의 농도 분포 분석, 고분자화합물의 특성 조사, 표면 원소의 화학결합에 따른 전자상태 연구 둥에 활용되 고 있 다. 즉, 종이가 노화되면서 원소들 사이에 변화되는 결합을 이러한 에너지 분석에 의해 원소 정성분석 또는 정량분석을 하고자 하였으며, 이를 분석하여 열처리 시 종이 표면에서 일어 나는 변화를 구명하고자 하였다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 종이의 노화를 가속화시키는 빛, 대기오염물질, 및 기타 다른 인 자들은 배제하고 열 만을 가해 노화의 진행속도를 높인 후, 노화 진행 시 종이 표변에 일어 나는 산화작용 및 가수분해를 표면 분석 장치인 ESCA를 이용하여 종이의 주 구성원소인 탄소와 산소가 열처리 시 변하는 에너지를 측정하였다. 또한 카르복실기 정량과 종이의 pH 측정 및 X -ray Diffractometer를 이용하여 결정화도를 측정하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 시간의 경과에 따라서 탄소의 결합에너지는 분포가 C-H에서 COO-, 또는 C=O로 달라짐으로써 종 이가 산화되고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이 결합에너지 분포의 변화가 펄프의 종류 에 따라서 다르게 이동함으로써 제조된 시트의 표면 산화반응이 서로 다르게 일어나고 있음 을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 사용한 펄프의 화학 조성분의 차이에 기인한 것이라 사료된다.

Wear-leveling techniques and Error Correction Codes (ECCs) are essential for the improvement of the reliability and durability of flash memories. Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes have higher error correction capabilities than conventional ECCs and have been applied to various flash memory-based storage devices. Conventional wear-leveling schemes using only the number of Program/Erase (P/E) cycles are not enough to reflect the actual aging differences of flash memory components. This paper introduces an actual aging measurement scheme for flash memory wear-leveling using LDPC decoding information. Our analysis, using error-rates obtained from an flash memory module, shows that LDPC decoding information can represent the aging degree of each block. We also show the effectiveness of the wear-leveling based on the proposed scheme through wear-leveling simulation experiments.

Recovery behaviors of unfilled NR, BR, and SBR vulcanizates after aging with a circular deformation were compared to prevent the influence of reinforcing agent. Samples were aged at room temperature, 50, 70, and $90^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Recovery increased by increasing the measurement time. Instantaneous recoveries less than 1.0 sec were obtained using the recovery variations with the measurement time. For aging at room temperature, difference in the recoveries of the rubber samples was not significant because the aging time was too short. However, for accelerated thermal aging at 50, 70, and $90^{\circ}C$, difference in the recoveries of the rubber samples was significant. Degree of recovery of BR specimen was higher than those of the others, while that of SBR was lowest. However, for accelerated thermal aging at $90^{\circ}C$, recovery of the NR sample was higher than that of the BR one. The initial recovery decreased by increasing the aging temperature and the decrement of SBR was larger than the others. The experimental results were explained with the resilience properties of rubbers and the crosslink density changes by thermal aging.

Post curing effects are estimated by specimen tests. Propellant specimen accelerated aging tests are performed when post curing is estimated to be complete and the coefficients of Arrhenius aging equations are acquired. Simulated motors with cylindrical grain are designed and fabricated to confirm the application. Accelerated aging tests are conducted, and aged properties are measured and estimated for the inner bore, center and bond parts of the grain. The measured aging ratios of the modulus are compared with the ones predicted by the equations. As the results, the accelerated aging equations predict well the propellant aging trends; however, some differences are observed at the bond part. Therefore, the specimen extraction part must be carefully chosen to suit the test purpose when a rocket motor grain is used for the aging test.
