In this study, the correlation between the properties of concrete in the fresh state and the compressive strength of hardened concrete was analyzed. It was found that the compressive strength increased as the values of T500 and plastic viscosity increased. However, there is a relationship between T500, which is a qualitative method, and compressive strength, but it seems difficult to predict through this. However, the correlation between plastic viscosity and compressive strength appears to be high, and it is believed that compressive strength can be predicted, but more data will be collected in the future for additional analysis. I think this will be necessary.

The objective of this study is to determine the best material model that represents the deformation behavior of the Sn37Pb solder alloy accurately. First, a specimen is fabricated and subjected to a thermal cycle with temperatures ranging from the room temperature to $125^{\circ}C$. An experiment is conducted to examine deformation by Moire interferometry. Three different constitutive equation models are used in the finite element analysis (FEA) of the thermal cycle. In order to minimize the difference between the FEA results and the experimental results, the material parameters of the solder alloy are considered to be unknown and are determined by conducting optimization. As a result of the study, the Anand model is found to represent the deformation behavior of the solder most accurately.

The point of discovering a new technique using colored glass and clay is to improve the existing inconveniences, which is compatible with the mutual physical property of ceramics clay and glass. It is easy to express the decoration of colored glass in vertical ceramics, but the aesthetic expression is limited due to the rust flowing down on horizontal ceramics. So the point is the discovery of a new expressive method that do not melt down in vertical objects. A new technique is to crush finely and dilute the colored glass using clay, and brushing it to the wall. Additionally, inlaid technique and paste brush technique were applied to further enhance aesthetic end. The plastic method is oxidation and reduction, and the coloration was different due to the plasticity method. Particularly, partial cutting of engraved color glass leads to forming gray-line soft gradation. This effect will be good to apply to production of work and industrial ceramics.

To fabricate green sheet of transparent dielectric for PDP front panel, dispersion of transparent dielectric slurry, density, and mechanical properties of green sheets have been investigated as a function of amount and composition of organic additives. Measurements of sedimentation and viscosity were employed to determine a proper dispersant and its amount for a well dispersed transparent dielectric powders in non-aqueous system. Green sheets, having various ratios of transparent dielectric powders to transparent dielectric powders＋ binder＋plasticizer and binder to binder＋plasticizer, were fabricated. All the tape casting slurries showed shear thinning effect, that is, the apparent viscosity decreased with the increase of shear rate. It was found that the amount and composition of organic additives were main variables to affect densities and mechanical properties of transparent dielectric green sheets for PDP.

Service conditions for structures at elevated temperatures in nuclear power plant involve transient thermal and mechanical load levels that are severe enough to caeuse inelastic deformations due to creep and plasticity. Therefore, a systematic mehtod of inelastic analysis is needed for the design of structural components in nuclear poser plants subjected to such loading conditions. In the present investigation, the Chabodhe model, one of the unified viscoplastic constitutive equations, was selected for systematic inelastic analysis. The material response was integrated based on GMR ( generallized mid-point rule) time integral scheme and provided to ABAQUS as a material subroutine, UMAT program. By comparing results obtaned from uniaxial analysis using the developed UMAT program with those from Runge-Kutta solutions and experimentaiton, the validity of the adopted Chaboche model and the numerical stability and accuracy of the developed UMAT program were verified. In addition, the developed material subroutine was applied for uniaxial creep and tension analyses for the plate with a hole in the center. The application further demonstrates usefulness of the developed program.

Recently, polyurethane foam has been used in various industry fields to preserve temperature environment of structures, and a wide range of loads from the static to the dynamic are imposed on the material during a life period. The biggest characteristic of polyurethane foam is porosity as being polymeric material, and it is generally known that insulation performance of the material strongly depends on internal void size. In addition, polyurethane foam's mechanical behavior has high dependence on strain rate and temperature as well as being highly non-linear ductile for compression. In the non-linear compressive behavior, volume fraction of voids and elastic modulus decrease as strain increases. Therefore, in this study, temperature-dependent viscoplastic-damage constitutive model was developed to describe the non-linear compressive behavior with the aforementioned features of polyurethane foam.

On the basis of several experiments peformed, Bahia et al. (1998) concluded that the current Superpave PG-grading system failed to characterize grading specification of fill modified binders. This conclusion motivates us to investigate the correct grating system suited for modified asphalt binders. The main concept of this development is originated from the relationship between rut depth and binder properties at high temperatures. A new grading system for modified asphalt binders suggested here somewhat resembles to the unmodified binder grading one developed by Huh et al. (2000). Thus, this investigation will provide a unified single theoretical equation of high temperature grading that can apply both to modified and unmodified binders, and will check its effectiveness with the laboratory and the field rut data reported by independent studies. Successful results observed may allow to construction of a correct grading system in the near future.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the seismic performance of Staggered Truss Frame(STF) system while changing a shape of truss. The model of this project is a office building of ten floors with Pratt, Howe, Warren, K and Vierendeel truss system applied on each model. Next step is to select the section of elements which satisfy the highest demand capacity ratio by structure design considering gravity load, earthquake load and wind load and then calculate natural period, base shear and story drifts. On the basis of these values, Capacity Spectrum Method(CSM) shows the plastic behavior of STF system such as performance point of Design Earthquake(DE) and Maximum Considered Earthquake(MCE), yield state, plastic hinge etc. to be compared with other truss systems. As a result, Vierendeel STF system especially was found to have the highest strength and stiffness to the corresponding earthquake and all the models for each truss shape fulfilled the target performance level.

A highly viscous biopolymer from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. was purified and its rheological properties were studied. 1% (w/v) solution of purified biopolymer showed pseudoplastic fluid behavior with the yield stress similar to those of xanthan and guar gum, and its consistency index was exponentially dependent on concentration and temperature. The concentration dependency of consistency index exhibited two rectilinear plots with different slopes at 1% concentration and pseudoplastic property increased with the increase of biopolymer concentration. The biopolymer solution exhibited a low temperature dependency and the activation energy of flow was 1.16 kacl/g mol. The apparent viscosity was very dependent on the change of pH and the addition of salt. However, no organic solvent effects were observed effects of viscosity synergism with the addition of viscosifier were not observed.

The prediction of the inelastic behavior of the structure is an essential part of reliability assessment procedure, because most of the failures are induced by the inelastic deformation, such as creep and plastic deformation. During decades, there has been much progress in understanding of the inelastic behavior of the materials and a lot of inelastic constitutive equations have been developed. The complexity of these constitutive equations generally requires a stable and accurate numerical method. The radial return mapping is one of the most robust integration scheme currently used. Nonlinear kinematic hardening model of Armstrong-Fredrick type has recovery term and the direction of kinematic hardening increment is not parallel to that of plastic strain increment. In this case, The conventional radial return mapping method cannot be applied directly. In this investigation, we expanded the radial return mapping method to consider the nonlinear kinematic hardening model and implemented this integration scheme into ABAQUS by means of UMAT subroutine. The solution of the non-linear system of algebraic equations arising from time discretization with the generalized midpoint rule is determined using Newton method and bisection method. Using dynamic yield condition derived from linearization of flow rule, the integration scheme for elastoplastic and viscoplastic constitutive model was unified. Several numerical examples are considered to demonstrate the efficiency and applicability of the present method.
