그래핀은 탄소원자로 구성된 2차원의 나노재료로서 우수한 기계적, 전기적, 광학적 특성을 지닌다. 이러한 특성들을 기반으로 그래핀은 디스플레이, 터치스크린, 전 자기 차폐재 등의 다양한 분야로의 응용이 가능하다고 예측되고 있다. 한편 이러한 특성은 그래핀의 구조 및 결함, 불순물 등에 의하여 변화한다고 알려져 있으며, 이러한 특성의 변화를 통해 전자소자로의 응용도 가능 하다고 예측되고 있다. 따라서 그래핀의 구조를 제어하고 적절한 결함 및 불순물을 부여하는 것은 그래핀의 기초물성 연구 뿐 아니라 응용연구 에 있어서도 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 공기 플라즈마를 이용하여 그래핀의 구조변형을 도모하였다. 그래핀은 열화학 기상증착법 (thermal chemical vapor deposition; TCVD)을 이용하여 300 nm 두께의 니켈박막이 증착된 기판위에 합성하였다. 합성된 그래핀은 산화처리 시 기판의 영향을 배제하고자 트렌치(trench) 구조의 산화막 실리콘 기판위로 전사함으로서 공중에 떠 있는 (air suspended) 구조를 구현하였다. 산화처리를 위한 장치는 직류 플라즈마 장치를 이용하였으며 0.1 Torr의 압력에서 0.4W의 파워로 공기 플라즈마를 방전하여 5분간의 산화처리와 특성평가를 매회 반복함으로서 처리시간에 따른 산화처리의 영향을 관찰하였다. 그 결과 공기 플라즈마 산화처리를 통해 그래핀에 결함을 부여하고 그래핀의 구조변형이 가능함을 확인하였다. 그래핀의 특성분석을 위해서는 광학현미경, 라만 분광기, 원자간힘현미경 등을 이용하였다.

In this paper, finite element analysis is applied for simulation of cracks due to restraining autogenous and drying shrinkage at early-age concrete. A micro-level heat hydration model and a shrinkage prediction model along with a moisture diffusion model are adopted for the finite element analysis. Then, an axial restraint test is carried out for concrete specimens containing different amounts of chloride ions to evaluate stress development and cracking due to the restraining shrinkages at early ages. Test results show that the increase of contents of chloride ions increases restrained stress, but does not increase strength. By this increase of shrinkage strain at early-age, time to occur the crack is accelerated. Finally, stress development and cracking of concrete specimens containing different amount of chloride ions we simulated using the finite element analysis. Results of the analysis using the Proposed model are verified by comparison with test results.

Instrumented sharp indentation test is a well-directed method to measure hardness and elastic modulus. The sharp indenter such as Berkovich and conical indenters have a geometrical self-similarity in theory, but the self-similarity ceases to work in practice due to inevitable indenter tip-blunting. In this study we analyzed the load-depth curves of conical indenter with finite tip-radius via finite element method. Using the numerical regression data obtained from Kick's law, we first confirmed that loading curvature is significantly affected by tip radius as well as material properties. We then established a new method to evaluate Young's modulus, which successfully provides the value of elastic modulus with an average error of less than 2%, regardless of tip-radius and material properties of both indenter and specimen.

The risk of transverse cracking in concrete decks of composite bridges is affected by many factors related to the bridge design, materials, and construction. Among others, the thermal and shrinkage stresses are the most important factors that affect the transverse cracking in early-age concrete decks. The thermal stress at the concrete deck is mainly affected by both ambient temperature and solar radiation. The shrinkage stress at the general strength concrete deck is mainly affected by drying shrinkage and the high strength concrete deck is mainly affected by autogeneous shrinkage. Three-dimensional finite element models of composite bridges were made to investigate the stress due to thermal and shrinkage stress.

The indentation test, which is one of the testing methods for evaluating the mechanical properties of materials, can be applied to the evaluation of creep properties. Many studies related to the indentation creep test, however, have just focused on the characteristics of the steady-state creep, so there are wide discrepancies between the uniaxial test and the indentation test. To obtain accurate creep properties, it is therefore important to consider the effects of transient creep. In the present work, the Ogbonna et al.'s work on the spherical indentation test including the transient creep was expanded and applied to the conical indentation creep test. The characteristics of the transient creep were analyzed via finite element simulations and compared with those obtained through spherical indentation. Other effects, such as elastic strain, indenter shape, contact area, and representative strain, which have not been considered properly in prior studies on the creep test, are also discussed.

In this study, we suggest a method for material property evaluation by dual-triangular pyramidal indenters using the reverse analysis. First, we demonstrated that load-displacement curves of conical and triangular pyramidal indenters are different for the same material. For this reason, an independent research on the triangular pyramidal indenter is needed. From FE indentation analyses on various materials, we then investigated the relationships among material properties, indentation parameters and load-displacement curves. From this, we established property evaluation formula using dual-triangular pyramidal indenters having two different half-included-angles. The approach provides the values of elastic modulus, yield strength and strain-hardening exponent within an average error of 3% for various materials.

고유동 콘크리트는 높은 변형성과 분리 저항성에 의해 자기충전성을 갖는 콘크리트로서 외부에서 힘을 전혀 가하지 않거나 또는 아주 작은 힘만으로 재료분리 없이 거푸집 구석구석까지 충전되는 특징을 가진다. 이러한 고유동 콘크리트는 일본 동경대학의 강촌 보 교수에 의해 제창되었는데 콘크리트의 다짐을 하지 않아도 된다면 시공방법의 영향을 받지 않고 신뢰성이 높은 구조물을 만들 수 있을 뿐 아니라 1회치기 높이의 제한, 다짐작업을 위한 발판, 박스단면에서 밑면과 벽체 부분의 분할치기 등의 제약을 받지 않게 되고, 강 콘크리트 샌드위치 합성구조 등의 새로운 구조형식도 용이하게 시공할 수 있어 많은 이점을 가질 수 있다.(중략)

In this study, the properties of super flowing concrete containing fly ash were experimentally investigated and compared with those of ordinary concrete. Tests were carried out on five types of super flowing concrete mixes containing fly ash and three types of ordinary concrete mixes without fly ash. Flow test, 0-funnel test, box test, L type test and slump test were carried out to obtain the properties for flowability and workability of fresh concrete. The mechanical properties of hardened concrete were also investigated in terms of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, creep and drying shrinkage. In fresh concrete, it was found that super flowing concrete had excellent workability and flowability compared with ordinary concrete, and had self-compactable performance. Super flowing concrete *also had good mechanical properties at both early and late ages with compressive strength reaching as high as 40 MPa at 28 days. The creep deformation of super flowing concrete investigated was relatively lower than that of ordinary concrete, but drying shrinkage was much higher.

The causes of concrete shrinkage are very diverse, in particular, aggregates impact the characteristics of shrinkage in concrete by constraining the shrinkage of cement paste. Meanwhile, owing to the lack of natural aggregate, various alternative aggregates are being developed, and their application in concrete also becomes more diverse. This study aimed to experimentally evaluate the drying and autogenous shrinkage in concrete that was composed of electric arc furnace slag as coarse aggregates. And, the results were compared with prediction models. From the results, the application of electric arc furnace slag can reduce the drying and autogenous shrinkage. In particular, autogenous shrinkage is greatly decreased. The predictions using GL2000 for drying shrinkage and Tazawa model for autogenous shrinkage were similar to the experimental results. However, the most prediction models do not consider the impact of aggregates, hence, the new prediction model should be developed or improved.

High-performance concrete (HPC), which is particularly sensitive to self-desiccation, is required to be durable even in severe environmental conditions, i.e. costal area, cold district, etc. However, in recent years, some attention was particularly given to cracking sensitivity of high performance concrete at early age. It has been argued and demonstrated experimentally that such concrete undergoes autogenous shrinkage due to self-desiccation at early age under restrained condition, nd, as a result, internal tensile stress may develop, leading to micro cracking and macro cracking. This shrinkage-introduced crack produces a major serviceability problem for concrete structures. One possible method to reduce cracking due to autogenous shrinkage is the addition of expansive additive. Tests conducted by many researches have shown the beneficial effects of addition of expansive additive for reducing the risk of autogenous shrinkage-introduced cracking. However, the research on hydration model of expansion additive has been hardly researched up to now. This paper presents a study of the hydration model of Ettringite-Gypsum type expansive additive. As a result of comparing forecast values with experiment value, proposed model is shown to expressible of hydration of expansive additive.
