Multi-layered primary linings have been proved to be highly effective for tunneling in severe squeezing grounds. But there still has not existed well-established design method for it. Basically, there are two main critical problems in this method, including determinations of allowable deformation and distribution of support stiffness. In order to address such problems, an attempt to investigate the mechanical response of a circular tunnel with double primary linings is performed in this paper. Analytical solutions in closed form for stresses and displacements around tunnels are derived. In addition, the effectiveness and reliability of theoretical formulas provided are well validated by using the numerical method. Finally, based on the analytical solutions, a parametric investigation on the effects of allowable deformation and distribution of support stiffness on tunnel performance is conducted. Results show that the rock pressure and displacement are significantly affected by these two design parameters. It can be found that rock pressure decreases as either allowable deformation increases or stiffness of the first primary lining decreases, but rock displacement shows an opposite trend. This paper can provide a useful guidance for the design of multi-layered primary linings.

GZO/ITO double layered films were deposited on unheated non-alkali glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering using an ITO ($SnO_2$: 10 wt%) and GZO($Ga_2O_3$: 5.57 wt%) ceramic targets, respectively. The electrical resistivity of GZO/ITO films depends on the thickness ratio between the GZO film and ITO film. With increasing ITO film thickness, the resistivity of GZO/ITO films decreased which due to large increase in the Hall mobility. Also, the crystallinity of GZO/ITO film was improved with an increase in ITO thickness which was evaluated by X-ray diffraction. The average transmittance of the films was more than 85% in the visible region, which is slightly higher than ITO single layer films.

In this study, we would like to describe peel strength and dynamic shear property on various substrates of multi-layered structural double-sided adhesive tape with or without adhesive (AD) prepared by UV curing for an automobile, construction, and display junction. According to adapt the adhesive, the peel and dynamic shear strength of adhesion tape prepared with acrylic foam or various plastic substrates increased with increasing molecular weight, however, decreased over 650000 molecular weight. The adhesion property shows high value at the thin AD layer with decreasing temperature. The interface property shows highest at MW 615000 (AD-4), and the interface junction below MW 615000 resulted to divide from acrylic foam and adhesive layer. From this study, the multi-layered structural double-sided adhesive tapes seem to be a useful for industrial area such as a low surface energy plastic material and curved substrate.

Double-layered polymeric carrier was designed for release control of hydrophilic drug in oral administration. Biopolymeric chitosan and alginate were examined as polar absorbents, poly(D,L-lactide) as a hydrophobic shell, and theophylline and diclofenac sodium as loading drugs. The fabrication of the carriers was prepared in the form of double-layered microsphere for delayed and successively extended release, which consisted of outer shell of poly(D,L-lactide) and inner core of alginate or chitosan with drugs. Morphologies and drug-release behaviors of the carriers were investigated, which were influenced by a combination of polarity between carrier and drug. It was confirmed that the relative polarities of the carriers, the drugs, and the environmental pH affected significantly the drug-release property.

The objective of this study was to investigate microbial removal using layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and iron (hydr)oxides (IHs) immobilized onto granular media. Column experiments were performed using calcium alginate beads (CA beads), LDHs entrapped in CA beads (LDH beads), quartz sand (QS), iron hydroxide-coated sand (IHCS) and hematite-coated sand (HCS). Microbial breakthrough curves were obtained by monitoring the effluent, with the percentage of microbial removal and collector efficiency then quantified from these curves. The results showed that the LDH beads were ineffective for the removal of the negatively-charged microbes (27.7% at 1 mM solution), even though the positively-charged LDHs were contained on the beads. The above could be related to the immobilization method, where LDH powders were immobilized inside CA beads with nano-sized pores (about 10 nm); therefore, micro-sized microbes (E. coli = 1.21 ${\mu}m$) could not diffuse through the pores to come into contact with the LDHs in the beads, but adhere only to the exterior surface of the beads via polymeric interaction. IHCS was the most effective in the microbial removal (86.0% at 1 mM solution), which could be attributed to the iron hydroxide coated onto the exterior surface of QS had a positive surface charge and, therefore, effectively attracted the negatively-charged microbes via electrostatic interactions. Meanwhile, HCS was far less effective (35.6% at 1 mM solution) than IHCS because the hematite coated onto the external surface of QS is a crystallized iron oxide with a negative surface charge. This study has helped to improve our knowledge on the potential application of functional granular media for microbial removal.

Polyvinyl alcohol/alginate hydrogel beads containing Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH-PVA/alginate beads) were synthesized for phosphate removal. Results showed that blending PVA with the LDH-alginate beads significantly improved their stability in a phosphate solution. The kinetic reaction in LDH-PVA/alginate beads reached equilibrium at 12 hr-post reaction with 99.2% removal. The amount of phosphate removed at equilibrium ($q_e$) was determined to be 0.389 mgP/g. The equilibrium data were described well by the Freundlich isotherm with the distribution coefficient ($K_F$, 0.638) and the constant (n, 0.396). Phosphate removal in LDH-PVA/alginate beads was not sensitive to solution pH. Also, the removal capacity of LDH-PVA/alginate beads ($q_e$, 1.543 mgP/g) was two orders of magnitude greater than that of PVA/alginate beads ($q_e$, 0.016 mgP/g) in column experiments. This study demonstrates that LDH-PVA/alginate beads with a higher chemical stability against phosphate compared to LDH-alginate beads have the potential for phosphate removal as adsorptive media.

Double layered film consisting of polyimide/polysiloxane and interface with nano domain structure was fabricated through stepwise layer formation and subsequent aging steps. During aging of film, nano phase separation occurred between the top layer polysiloxane and the upper layer of polyimide, which was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM). A stable and uniform polysiloxane layer was obtained, showing the reproducible pressure-sensitive adhesion (PSA) property with the peel strength of 8-13 g/inch at even $300^{\circ}C$. In addition, the resulting polymide/polysiloxane film was thermo-stable up to $435^{\circ}C$, providing the promising properties suitable for application in microelectronics processing.

Amorphous (Ba, Sr)$TiO_3$[BST] layer(30, 70 nm) was introduced between crystalline BST and $RuO_2$electrode to realize double-layered BST structure in order to improve the properties of BST film. The structure and surface morphology of double-layered BST film were modified by the application of amorphous BST layer; that is, surface became smoother and grain size increased abruptly. Amorphous layer thicker than 30 nm was effective to hinder the influence of $RuO_2$surface on the structure of as-grown BST films by in-situ process. Dielectric constant of double-layered BST film was improved dramatically from 152 to 340 and leakage current was lowered from $1.25{\times}10^{-5}A/{\textrm}{cm}^2);to;6.85{\times}10^{-7}A/{\textrm}{cm}^2$, respectively.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated EM wave absorbers using Sendust, $Al(OH)_3$ and CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene). We compared the absorption properties of samples containing 0 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 5 wt.%, 7 wt.% of $Al(OH)_3$. The optimized composition ratio of $Al(OH)_3$ is 5 wt.%, and the absorption property curve just has the tendency to improve at 5 wt.% of $Al(OH)_3$. And we used this characteristics to design the double-layered EM wave absorber. The double-layered EM wave absorber has thickness of 2 mm and has absorption ability more than 18.5 dB at a wireless LAN frequency band using 2.4 GHz.

The purpose of this study is to examine how to sew the hem of men's coat which were excavated from the Yeosan Song Clan's tombs that are thought to be formed between the late 15th and the late 16th centuries, findings of the study can be summarized as follows. 1. Andan, or inside facing was used to prevent the hem from being worn or swollen or to make the hem properly arranged. It was generally used for single-layered and cotton-quilted coat for men. Deotdan was used mainly for men's coat having oblique cutting lines and jemuldan for those having straight cutting lines. In single-layed coat for men, the width of andan was widened a little as the times moved from the late 15th to the late 16th century, but in cotton-quilted ones, the width was not significantly changed. 2. Fixing the lining and the upper was used as a method to prevent the lining of men's coat from being pushed out or the hem of the clothes from being swollen. The method was generally used for double-layered, cotton and cotton-quilted coat for men. The double back-stitching was usually used for double-layered and cotton coat for men and the broad-stitching for Cotton-quilted ones. 3. Among men's coat, those whose siding was partially opened were less spare in the lower end than those whose siding was wholly opened. For this reason, the former clothes were more likely to have the tip of the siding easily torn. To solve this problem, overhand knotting 1, overhand knotting 2 and lotus-flower knotting strings were used for men's coat whose siding was partially opened. Among the three types, lotus-flower knotting was most elaborate in form. For men's coat, overhand knotting became gradually replaced by lotus-flower knotting as the times moved from the late 15th to the late 16th century.
