Vacuum hot pressing has been used for the development of Ti-MMCs using foil-fiber-foil method, and subsequent micro-mechanical characteristics of the composites are evaluated by means of several experimental processes. As shown by the results, fiber strength degradation occurs during the consolidation, and particularly residual stresses results from the thermal expansion mismatch between fiber and matrix materials during cooling process are incorporated in the changes of mechanical properties of the composites. In industrial applications, the processing conditions avoiding micro-material failures are important together with the properties of finished products, and therefore should be included in the assesment of the material characterization.

Manufacturing bulk nanostructured materials with least grain growth from initial powders is challenging because of the bottle neck of bottom-up methods using the conventional powder metallurgy via compaction and sintering. In the study, densification behavior of nano Cu powders during pressureless sintering was investigated using an in-situ optical dilatometer technique. The initial heating and steady temperature stages during the sintering of nano Cu powder compacts were observed. At the initial heating stage, the powder compact has many porosities and full densification needs high temperature and/or high pressure sintering. In the experimental analysis, changes in geometry and density were measured and discussed for optimal consolidation and densification by the in-situ optical dilatometer.

In this study, bottom-up type powder processing and top-down type SPD (severe plastic deformation) approaches were combined in order to achieve both full density and grain refinement of metallic powders with least grain growth. ECAP (Equal channel angular pressing) was used for the powder consolidation. We investigated the consolidation, plastic deformation and microstructure evolution behavior of the metallic powders during ECAP using an experimental method. It was found that high mechanical strength could be achieved effectively as a result of the well bonded powder contact surface during ECAP process of gas atomized Al-Si powders.

An experimental investigation was carried out to study the feasibility of using the stabiliozed sludge, as a backfill and cutoff-water materials for embankment structures. For stabilizing of sludge, hydrated lime and quick lime were used as additive, and a series of tests were performed on the sludge and the stabilized sludge to examine their physical and mechanical properties , compaction, compressive strength, hydraulic conuctivity and consolidation characteristics. From the test results, physical and mechanical properties of the stabilized sludge were improved as compared with the sludge. Especially from the viewpoint of physcial property, consolidation or settlement and cutoff-water, quick lime is more effective than the hydrated lime as a stabilization addtive. But, viewpoint of compaction and shear strength, hydrated lime is more effective than the quick lime as a atabilization additive. As a result of this study, it was found that the stabilized sludge can be developed the backfill and cutoff-water materials, improved the stabilizing method of sludge.

This paper presents quality and measure controls of Plastic Board Drains(PBD) for improvement of soft ground. Laboratory and field tests has been carried out to evaluate the quality of PBD focussing on : discharge capacity of flow area; permeability of filter sleeve; migration of fine particles; deformed shape of PBD; consolidation of clay in the close vicinity of PBD; tensile strength of PBD; long-term consolidation behavior of clay-PBD. Test results show that the quality of PBD is sufficient to perform the improvement of soft silty and clayey ground. But, geotechnical engineer must make efforts minimizings of PBD damage and ground disturbance, continuity of drainage system during construction. Adequate monitoring system should apply at ground focussing on number, location, and accuracy of geotechnical instrumentation, measurement and evaluation of data for ground behaviour.

딜라토메터를 이용한 현장 수평압밀계수 추정법의 국내 점토지반 및 실트질 지반에의 적용성을 평가하기 위해 국내 점토지반과 실트지반에 대하여 각각 딜라토메터 관입시험 및 소산시험을 수행하였다. 소산시험 결과로부터 DMT-C법 [p$_2$-log t법과 C-√t법]과 DMT-A법을 이용하여 수평압밀계수를 추정하여 상호 비교하였으며 다른 실험방법에서 얻어진 결과들과도 함께 비교하고 평가하였다. 비교대상으로는 동일지반의 현장 피에조콘 소산시험으로 얻어진 수평압밀계수 및 불교란시료에 대하여 수행된 로셀압밀실험 및 일차원 실내압밀실험 결과가 함께 이용되었다. 연구결과 C-√t법을 제외한 p$_2$-log t법과 DMT-A법은 국내 점토지반에 대하여 상호일치하는 결과를 줄 뿐 아니라 피에조콘 결과와도 비교적 잘 일치하는 수평 압밀계수를 측정하였으며 다른 결과와 비교할 때 신뢰성 있는 결과를 주었다. 그러나 실트질 지반에 대하여는 p$_2$-log t법만이 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

정전안정화 및 입체안정화를 동시에 적용한 복합안정화기구에 의하여 25 부피%의 나노 $Al_2$O$_3$슬러리를 제조하고, 이로부터 얻은 주입성형체, 원심성형체, 진공성형체의 기공구조 분석을 통하여 입자충전거동을 살펴보았다. 나노 알루미나 분말의 습식 성형체의 충전구조는 성형방법에 의하여 가해지는 외력의 영향을 크게 받지만, 반발력을 제공하는 표면장벽층의 상호작용에 의해서도 현저한 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 예비소결실험을 통하여 나노분말에서도 기공크기가 작고, 크기분포가 좁으며, 높은 밀도를 가진 균일성형체의 미세구조가 소결미세구조를 균일하게 하는데 필수적인 조건임을 확인하였다.

Soft ground stabilization is needed to construct large civil facilities on the soft clay ground. Pre-loading method, which is accelerating consolidation method, is generally used to stabilize the soft ground. However, pre-loading method is required long construction period and quantities of fill material. Therefore, electro-osmosis method is used to replace pre-loading method for stabilizing the soft ground. Electro-osmosis method is disadvantageous in constructive and economic aspects because it is needed a metallic electrode. So, in order to solve the those disadvantages, plastic electrode was developed to replace metallic electrode. Plastic electrode, which is made by using nano-technology on existing Plastic Drain Board (PDB), was used to supply the electric power. In this study, therefore, the model test was conducted to confirm the effect of improvement and electrical characteristics of soft ground by spacing of plastic electrode. The result shows that the effect of improvement of soft ground was decreased up to 45% by increasing electrode spacing and electrical characteristics on the soft ground were influenced by consolidation settlement with electrode spacing.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce case studies on 2 projects for the construction of port facilities in Colombo, Sri lanka. In Queen Elizabeth quay development project in 2000, the damage at the bottom of steel tubular piles were occurred when piles were driven into subsoil for piled wharf structure in Stage 1. In order to prevent same incident in Stage 2 & 3, the pile driveability analysis were executed by dynamic formulas, analysis program, test driving and pile load tests. Through pile driveability analysis, prevention plans were proposed. In Colombo port expansion project in 2008, the mv method was applied to predict a primary consolidation settlement of a subsoil under a breakwater in the calculation stage. The $m_v$ was estimated from results of cone penetration tests and the final settlement by consolidation was calculated with it.
