In the present work, FEM analyses are carried out to investigate the fractures occurred within the structural part in the course of combustion experiment. The loss of structural integrity stems from the localized deformation and the damage induced due to a severe change in the thermal load. Moreover, the two-back stress evolution model is proposed using the Armstrong-Frederick and the Phillips' rules to depict the plastic deformation, and the continuum damage mechanics is also incorporated into the present model. It is noted that the present model is able to formulate a wide range of constitutive description with ease. The numerical results depicts that a severe strain localization and damage evolution can be obtained depending on the dominant back stress.

n-type 실리콘은 p-type과 비교하여 더 높은 소수캐리어 lifetime 으로 금속 불순물에 대하여 더 좋은 내성을 갖는다. 고효율 실리콘 태양전지를 위하여 p-type 웨이퍼를 n-type으로 교체하여 빛을 조사했을 때, 광전자들이 형성되어 p-type과 비교하여 더 좋은 lifetime 안정성을 갖는다. n-type 태양전지의 전면 전극은 AgAl paste로 형성하였다. AgAl 페이스트는 소성 온도와 밀접하게 관련되어 전극의 접합 깊이에 영향을 미친다. p+ emitter 층에 파고드는 금속 접촉의 최적화된 깊이는 접촉 저항에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 소성 조건을 변화시킴으로써, 금속 깊이의 효과적인 형성을 위한 소성 조건을 최적화하였다. $670^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도에서 소성을 진행 하였을 때, 충분한 접촉 깊이를 형성하지 못하여 높은 접촉저항을 갖는다. 소성 온도가 증가함에 따라, 접촉 저항은 감소하였다. 최적 소성 온도 $865^{\circ}C$에서 측정된 접촉저항은 $5.99mWcm^2$이다. $900^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 contact junction은 emitter를 통과하여 실리콘과 결합하였다. 그 결과로 접촉저항 shunt가 발생한다.

In this paper, the nonlinear parameter estimation method using the estimated hysteresis of each structural members was studied for the purpose of efficient seismic damage prediction and estimation of MDOF nonlinear structural model in the shaking table test. The hysteresis of each structural members can be obtained by the conversion of measured response histories into relative motions of each structural members and member forces. These hysteresis can be used to evaluate various kinds of damage indices of each structural members. The MDOF nonlinear structural model for further analysis(re-analysis) can be easily reconstructed using estimated nonlinear structural parameters of each structural members. To demonstrate the proposed techniques, several numerical and experimental example analyses are carried out. The results indicate that the proposed method can be very useful to assess local seismic damages of structures.

최근 전자 장비의 금속 전도성 패턴 제작에 있어서 직접적인 프린트가 가능한 프린팅 기술이 기존의 복잡한 photolithography 를 대체할 기술로 주목 받고 있다. 이와 함께 금속 전도성 패턴 제작에 사용되는 고가의 전도성 물질인 Ag ink 및 paste 를 저가의 Cu ink 및 paste 로 대체하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 일반적으로 copper 는 대기 중 에서 쉽게 산화되어 높은 저항을 야기시킨다. 따라서 Cu ink 또는 paste 를 제작할 때 copper nanoparticles 을 유기 용매에 분산하여 inert atmosphere에서 합성하거나 [1] copper ink 또는 paste 를 substrate 에 프린트하여 reduction atmosphere 에서 소성시킨다 [2]. 이번 연구에서 Cu paste 를 유리 기판에 screen printing 하여 혼합가스(질소 95%, 수소 5%)와 질소 가스 분위기에서 소성하여 Cu 전극의 소성 거동과 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 4-point probe를 통해 소성된 Cu 전극의 저항을 측정하여 전도도를 조사하였으며 Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Fourier Transform Infrared(FTIR)를 통해 소성된 Cu 전극의 유기물 분해가 전도도에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM)과 High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM)을 통해 Cu nanoparticles 의 grain growth가 전도도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

Concrete has two different failure mechanisms : compressive crushing and tensile cracking. Concrete models should use the two different failure criteria to analyze the inelastic behavior of concrete including multiaxial crushing and tensile cracking. Concrete models used in this study are based on plasticity with multiple failure criteria of compressive crushing and tensile cracking. For tensile cracking behavior, two different plasticity models are investigated. The* ,e are rotating-crack and fixed-crack plasticity models, classified according to idealization of crack 0rientat:ions. The material models simplify inelastic behavior of concrete for plane stress problenls. The material models are used for the finite element anlaysis. Analytical results are compared with several experiments of reinforced concrete member. The advantages and disadva.ntages of rotating-crack and fixed -crack plasticity models are discussed.

The kidney is a rare site of ectopic adrenal adenoma. To the best of our knowledge, some cases of ectopic adrenal adenoma have been found in the kidney, but few of these cases explain the CT and MRI findings of the lesion. We reported a case of ectopic adrenal adenoma in the left renal sinus. A 47-year-old male patient underwent abdominal CT for routine health check-ups, which revealed a 1.2 cm enhancing mass in the left renal sinus. The MRI showed a signal drop of the mass in T1 weighted in- and opposed-phase, which indicates fat components. The mass was confirmed as an ectopic adrenal adenoma after surgery.

Microstructure and the electrical porperties of a ZnO-based multilayered chip-type varistor(abbreviated as MLV) with Ag/Pd(7:3) inner electrode have been studied as a function of firing of temperature. At 1100$^{\circ}$C, inner electrode layers began to show nonuniform thickness and small voids, which resulted in significant disappearance of the electrode pattern and delamination at 1100$^{\circ}$C. MLVs fired at 950$^{\circ}$C showed large degradation in leakage current, probably due to incomplete redistribution of liquid and transition metal elements in pyrochlore phase decomposition. Those fired at 1100$^{\circ}$C and above, on the other hand, revealed poor varistor characteristics and their reproductibility, which are though to stem from the deformation of inner electrode pattern, the reaction between electrode materials and ZnO-based ceramics, and the volatilization of $Bi_2O_3$. Throughout the firing temperature range of 950∼1100$^{\circ}$C, capacitance and leakage current increased while breakdown voltage and peak current decreased with the increase of firing temperature, but nonlinear coefficient and clamping ratio kept almost constant at ∼30 and 1.4, respectively. In particular, those fired between 1000$^{\circ}$C and 1050$^{\circ}$C showed stable varistor characteristics with high reproducibility. It seems that Ag/Pd(7:3) alloy is one of the electrode materials applicable to most ZnO-based MLVs incorporating with $Bi_2O_3$ when cofired up to 1050$^{\circ}$C.

Purpose: Heterotopic ossification is a well-known postoperative and post-traumatic complication of the elbow. We reviewed the treatment outcome for the use of low-dose radiation after surgical intervention of the elbow to prevent recurrence of heterotopic ossification (HO). Materials and Methods: Forty-five patients with HO underwent surgical intervention and postoperative radiotherapy of the elbow. The median age of the patients was 29 years ($16{\sim}75$ years), and 27 of the patients were men and 18 were women. The occurrence of HO was mainly due to surgery after fracture (24/45) and traumatic injury (21/45). Limitation of the range of motion (ROM) was the most common symptom of the patients. Thirty-four patients received postoperative radiotherapy with a dose of 8 Gy in 2 fractions; 5 patients received a dose of 10 Gy in 5 fractions and 6 patients received a dose of 7 Gy in 1 fraction. Postoperative radiotherapy was given on the first two postoperative days for most of the patients. Sixteen patients were not given anti-inflammatory medication and 29 patients were given NSAIDs for $1{\sim}8$ months. Results: After a median follow-up period of 18 months (range $6{\sim}72$ months), 41 patients showed clinical improvement and two patients did not show improvement. Assessment of the ROM showed a mean improvement from $0{\sim}135^{\circ}$ to $60{\sim}145^{\circ}$ (p=0.028), and assessment of the functional outcome according to MEPI was from ($15{\sim}95$) to ($80{\sim}100$) (p<0.0001). Two of the 34 patients that were followed-up with radiography had mild radiological recurrence of heterotopic ossification. No complications were observed after the radiotherapy. Conclusion: These results suggested that low-dose radiation administered after surgical intervention is safe and effective to prevent the recurrence of HO in the elbow.

DeNOx catalysts composed of Mn, Cu and $TiO_2$ were prepared and tested for $NH_3$-SCR. The performance of each catalyst was studied for the NOx removal efficiency while changing the calcination temperature, reaction time, and oxygen concentration. The hydrogen conversion efficiency of a calcined catalyst was measured at the $H_2$-TPR system. The change in the specific surface area of catalyst according to the calcination temperature was analyzed. As a result, the proper calcination temperature was approximately $300^{\circ}C$. If the calcination temperature is increased to $500^{\circ}C$, the NOx removal efficiency of Mn and Cu constituents is largely decreased at the low temperature range. Oxygen in flue gas is an important parameter in the SCR reaction and optimal oxygen concentration is approximately 8 vol.%.
