Steel fiber is a effective composite for crack resistance and improve structural performance under tensile loading. This study presents an evaluation of crack resistance and structural performance in cement mortar with steel fiber and expansion agent through internal chemical prestressing. For this work, cement mortar samples with 10% replacement of cement binder with CSA (Calcium-Sulfo-Aluminate) expansion agent and 1% volume ratio of steel fiber are prepared. Including basic mechanical properties, initial cracking load and fracture energy are evaluated in cement mortar beam with notch. Initial cracking load and fracture energy in cement mortar with CSA and steel fiber increase by 1.75 and 1.41~1.53 times compared with those in cement mortar with steel fiber. With optimum mix design for steel fiber and CSA expansive agent, the composite with chemical prestressing can be applied to various members and effectively improve crack resistance to external loading.

Flow field is an important parameter for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance to have an effect on the reactant supply, heat and water diffusion, and contact resistance. In this study, PEMFC performance was investigated using Cu foam flow field at the cathode of 25 cm² unit cell. Polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were performed at different pressure and relative humidity conditions. The Cu foam showed lower cell performance than that of serpentine type due to its high ohmic resistance, but lower activation and concentration loss due to the even reactant distribution of porous structure. Cu foam has the advantage of effective water transport because of its hydrophobicity. However, it showed low membrane hydration at low humidity condition. The metal foam flow field could improve fuel cell performance with a uniform pressure distribution and effective water management, so future research on the properties of metal foam should be conducted to reduce electrical resistance of bipolar plate.

In this paper, the utilization of waste foundry sand produced in the molding process is studied as a backfill material for underground electric utility systems such as concrete box structures and pipe lines for power supply. The physical, chemical and thermal properties for waste foundry sand are investigated far mechanical stability, environmental hazard and power transmission capacity Also its properties are compared with those of the natural river sand. The test results show that waste foundry sand can be utilized for underground concrete box structures as a backfill material; however, it can not be applied to underground pipe lines due to high thermal resistivity or low power transmission capacity.

태양전지, 터치센서와 같이 투명한 전극(TCO: Transparent conducting oxide)이 필요로 하는 곳에는 금속 산화물 형태의 ITO, ZnO, FTO와 같은 투명 전극이 사용된다. 그중에서 FTO는 저렴한 가격과 높은 투과율, 낮은 저항으로 주목을 받고 있다. 뿐만아니라 FTO 박막은 다른 산화물 전도체에 비해 구부림에 강한 저항성을 보여 주고 있다. FTO 박막의 캐리어 전하 생성 원리는 F 원자가 O 원자의 자리를 치환하게 되면서 잉여 전자의 발생으로 전기가 흐를 수 있다. 아직까지는 화학적 조성비에 유리한 CVD를 이용한 증착 방법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 스퍼터 장비 역시 공정 가스에 따라 화학적 조성비 변화가 가능하고 CVD와 비교하여 공정이 간단하며 연속 공정이 쉽고 대면적 적용이 가능하다. 본 실험은 본사에서 R&D용으로 제작한 Daon-1000 S 장비를 사용하였으며 DaON-1000 S는 3개의 2" sputter gun이 장착 되어 있어 co-sputtering이 가능한 장비이다.

Ferronickel slag, which is an industrial byproduct, is activated by mechanochemical reaction as a nonferrous metal and can be used as an admixture. Therefore, ferronickel slag is used as a substitute resource of admixture. In this study, to evaluate the effect of mixed of ferronickel slag powder and admixture, a mortar using a mixture of ferronickel slag powder, quicklime, gypsum and calcium chloride was fabricated by vibrated and rolled manufacturing method. Strength were evaluated by flexural and compressive strength tests, and durability was evaluated by performing chlorine ion penetration resistance and chemical resistance test. When the substitution ratio of ferronickel slag powder is constant, it is considered that the mixed use of quicklime, gypsum and calcium chloride as admixtures increases the performance.

The study was initiated to investigate the nature of varietal resistance to the rice stem borer (Chilo suppressalis WALKER), specially the rotation of the resistance to the silica and nitrogen content of the host Plants. 1. The body freight of the larvae, reared on the stem of the various varieties of rice plants, when weighed at the age of 25 days old, showed great variation, and ranged from 21.24 mgrs. to 45.77 mgrs. depending on the used varieties of tile rice plants. And generally the varieties of Indica types were showed greater body weight than that of Japonica types in this experiments. 2. The positive correlation coefficients of percent survivals to body weight, developement, oviposition preference and rate of damage to host plants were significant, and consequently the percent survival could be used as a criteria of resistance. 3. The content of silica in the host plants was significantly correlated with both the degree of boring on the leaf and attractovemess of larvae, and the total nitrogen content of plants showed significant positive correlation coefficient with larval attractivenes, but not significant with the degree of boring on the leaf. 4. Since the attractiveness and boring manner were significantyly correlated to resistance criteria of rice plant to the pest, it could be considered that the resistance is the results of chain reaction of the factors mentioned above.

Sweet potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is an insect pest with sucking mouth part and globally attacks diverse crops and vegetables. Since first reported in 1998, it is now widely spread in many regions in Korea. Due to insecticide resistance, it is necessary for optimal control of the whiteflies to select effective insecticides with precise insecticide resistance monitoring. In this study, B. tabaci individuals were collected from 12 regions in 7 provinces of Korea from June to September in 2020. Using these field populations, insecticide resistance levels were monitored using a residual contact bioassay along with molecular markers. Bioassay results revealed that B. tabaci possessed high levels of resistance to five insecticides exhibiting different modes of action: dinotefuran, spinosad, emamectin benzoate, chlorfenapyr, and bifenthrin. In addition, quantitative sequencing in target sites of organophosphate and pyrethroid insecticides revealed that point mutations reached to saturated or near-saturated levels across the country. This suggests that insecticide resistance management is required for effective control of B. tabaci populations in Korea.

Chrysnathemum stunt viroid (CSVd), a small, single-stranded, infectious RNA, has caused a severe problem in chrysanthemum in the world. In Korea, since CSVd was firstly observed in 1997, the disease has been spread throughout the whole country rapidly. In spite of the seriousness, few methods for control of CSVd have been known without prevention. The use of resistant cultivars is one of the most efficient approaches for overcoming CSVd disease in chrysanthemum cultivation. This study was carried out to identify chrysanthemum genetic resources for the resistance to chrysanthemum stunt viroid (CSVd). A total of 192 commercial cultivars including 167 spray and 25 standard chrysanthemum were screened with CSVd through grafting inoculation method. In most of the inoculated cultivars, typical disease symptoms, stunting of plant height, reduced flower size, and flower color bleaching, were induced. Several cultivars, however, were symptomless or showed delay in symptom expression. Of 192 chrysanthemum cultivars, two cultivars with less than 5% of the average reduction rate of plant height, 'Chiwerel' and 'Jeongheungdaesin', were rated as resistant. And six cultivars less than 20% inculding 'Inga' were rated as moderate resistant. The remaining 184 cultivars with a high level of reduction were rated as susceptible. We expect that these genetic resources can be used in crossbreeding programs for developing CSVd resistant cultivars of chrysanthemum.
