The unique thermomechanical properties of shape memory alloys (SMAs) make it a versatile material for strengthening and repairing structures. In particular, several research studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of using the heat activated shape memory effect of nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) based SMAs to actively confine concrete members. Despite the proven effectiveness and wide commercial availability of Ni-Ti SMAs, however, their high cost remains a major obstacle for applications in real structural engineering projects. In this study, the shape memory effect of a new, much more economical iron-based SMA (Fe-SMA) is characterized and the compressive behavior of concrete confined with Fe-SMA strips is investigated. Tests showed the Fe-SMA strips used in this study are capable of developing high levels of recovery stress and can be easily formed into hoops to provide effective active and passive confining pressure to concrete members. Compared to concrete cylinders confined with conventional carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites, Fe-SMA confinement yielded significantly higher compressive deformation capacity and residual strength. Overall, the compressive behavior of Fe-SMA confined concrete was comparable to that of Ni-Ti SMA confined concrete. This study clearly shows the potential for Fe-SMA as a robust and cost-effective strengthening solution for concrete structures and opens possibilities for more practical applications.

Culture as a source of identity, as Edward Said says, can be a battleground on which various political and ideological causes engage one another. It is not mere individual cultivation or private possession, but a program for social cohesion. Sensitively aware that a national culture should be independent from Europe, Walt Whitman enacts a new form of literature by placing different cultural values against Old World tradition. His interest in autochthonous culture originates from his deep concern about national consciousness. He believes that literary taste directed toward highly-ornamented elite culture is an obstacle to cultural unification of a nation. In order to represent American culture of the common people, Whitman incorporates a lot of cultural material into his poetry. Since he believes that America has many respectable writers at home, he urges people to adjust to their own taste instead of running after foreign authors. Whitman differentiated his poetry from previous literary models by disrupting the established literary norms and reconfiguring cultural values on the basis of American ways of life. In his comment on other poets, he concentrates on the originality and nativity of poetry. By claiming that words have characteristics of nativity, independence, and individuality, he envisions American literature to be distinguished from British literature in literary materials as well as in language. Whitman s language is composed of a vast number of words that can fully portray the nation. He works over language materials in two ways: reterritorialization and deterritorialization. Not only does his literary language become subversive of the established literary language, but also makes it possible to express strength and intensity in feeling.

무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)에서 센서 노드의 위치 추정 기술 중 거리 기반의 위치 추정 기술은 거리 측정에 따라 센서 노드의 위치 추정의 정확성이 달라진다. 거리 기반의 위치 추정 기술에서 거리를 측정하는 많은 기술 중에 추가적인 장비 없이 쉽게 구현이 가능한 기술 중 하나는 수신 신호 세기이다. 그러나 수신신호세기 기반의 위치 추정 기법은 몇 가지 문제점을 고려해야 한다. 하나는 수신된 신호는 채널 환경에서 페이딩, 쉐도잉 그리고 장애물 등으로 인해서 거리 추정의 오차가 생긴다. 이로 인해서 센서 노드의 위치 추정의 정확성은 낮게 된다. 또 다른 하나는 거리 기반의 위치 추정 기술은 대부분 센서 노드에 의해서 자신의 위치를 추정한다는 것이다. 하지만 센서 노드의 한정된 배터리 용량 때문에 무선 센서 네트워크의 동작 시간이 감소하게 된다. 반면에 비콘 노드는 센서 노드보다 처리 능력과 배터리 용량이 더 높기 때문에 비콘 노드 기반 위치 추정 기법은 무선 센서 네트워크의 동작 시간을 연장 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비콘 노드에서 수신 신호 세기와 전력손실지수 추정을 활용하여 센서 노드의 위치를 추정하는 알고리즘을 제안함으로써 위의 문제점을 극복한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해서 제안한 기법을 검증한다.

본 연구는 고전점성학(Classic Astrology)의 네이티비티(Nativity) 출생차트에서 그 차트를 구성하고 있는 행성들의 기능과 구조를 살펴 네이티비티의 직업적성을 분석하는 연구이다. 즉 출생차트에서 나타나는 직업을 개인의 타고난 직업으로 본다면 사인(Sign, 별자리)과 플래닛(Planets, 행성)의 강약, 애스펙트(행성과의 관계) 등을 통하여 분석한다. 고전점성학(Classic Astrology)의 네이티비티(nativity) 출생차트에서는 직업을 판단할 때 크게 세 개의 플래닛인 금성(♀. Venus). 화성(♂. Mars). 수성(☿. Mercury)에 의하여 결정된다고 보았다. 그러나 현대에 와서 고도로 발전된 지식정보화 사회에서 요 구되는 직업의 다양성에 부합하기 위해서는 조금 미흡한 점이 있어 토성(♄. Saturn), 목성(♃. Jupiter), 태양(☉. Sol), 달(☽. Luna)을 더하여 직업의 적성을 적용하였다. 그 결과로 네이티브의 ASC의 직업적성을 플래닛과 그들의 애스펙트 관계를 토대로 더욱 다양하고 폭넓은 적용이 가능하였다. 그 결과 금성(♀. Venus)은 사람들이 아름답다고 생각하는 예술성이 있는 일을 즐기며 그것을 삶의 낙으로 삼을 수 있는 일을 의미하였으며, 화성(♂. Mars)은 노동일과 같이 체력과 힘을 쓰는 일을 의미한 것을 알 수 있었다. 또 수성(☿. Mercury)은 지식과 두뇌를 활용하는 일을 의미하고 있으며, 태양(☉. Sol)은 직업과 재능에 권위를 부여해주는 역할을 하고 있고, 달(☽. Luna)은 네이티브의 직업과 재능에 사람들의 신뢰를 얻도록 해주었으며 목성(♃. Jupiter)은 믿음과 성실함, 공정함, 너그러움 등이 네이티브의 직업과 재능을 살리는데 도움을 주었으며, 토성(♄. Saturn)은 탐욕, 슬픔, 궁핍함 등으로 직업과 재능을 가로막는 장애로 나타날 수 있었고. 결과적으로 플래닛의 강약과 그 플래닛들의 애스펙트 관계에 따라 네이티브의 직업이 다양하게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

Single-well carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have been proposed as a promising candidate for various applications owing to their excellent properties. In particular, their fascinating electrical and mechanical properties could provide a new area for the development of advanced engineering materials. A transparent conductive thin film (TCF) has increased for applications such as liquid crystal displays, touch panels, and flexible displays. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. But, a bundle of CNTs has different electrical properties than their individual counterparts. In this work, the fabrication by the spraying process of transparent SWNT films and reduction of its sheet resistance on PET substrates is researched. Arc-discharge SWNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodum dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate at $100^{\circ}C$. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then treated with ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. Results, we show that 97 ${\Omega}$/> sheet resistance can be achieved with 81% transmittance at the wavelength of 550 nm. The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after ionic doping treatments were discussed.

Recently, in order to satisfy the consumer's demand the life cycle and the lead-time of a product is to be shortened. It is thus important to reduce the time and cost in manufacturing trial products. Several techniques have been developed and successfully commercialized in the market RPM(Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing). However, most commercial systems currently use resins or waxes as the raw materials. So, the limited mechanical strength for functional testing is regarded as an obstacle towards broader application of rapid prototyping techniques. To overcome this problems, high-speed machining technology is being investigated worldwide for rapid manufacturing and even for direct rapid tooling application. In this paper, some fundamental experiments and analyses are carried out to obtain the filling time, materials, method, and process parameters for HisRP process. HisRP is a combination process using high-speed machining technology with automatic filling. In filling process, Bi58-Sn alloy is chosen because of the properties of los-melting point, low coefficient of thermal expansion and enviromental friendship. Also the use of filling wire is of advantage in term of simple and flexible mechanism. Then the rapid manufacturing product, for example a skull, is machined for aluminum material by HisRP process with an automatic set-up device of 4-faces machining.

Oxide dispersed strengthened (ODS) steel is an important candidate for Gen-IV reactors. Oxide embedded in Fe can help to trap irradiation defects and enhances the strength of steel. It was observed in this study that the size of oxide has a profound impact on the depinning mechanism. For smaller sizes, the oxide acts as a void; thus, letting the dislocation bypass without any shear. On the other hand, oxides larger than 2 nm generate new dislocation segments around themselves. The depinning is similar to that of Orowan mechanism and the strengthening effect is likely to be greater for larger oxides. It was found that higher shear deformation rates produce more fine-tuned stress-strain curve. Both molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and BKS (Bacon-Knocks-Scattergood) model display similar characteristics whereby establishing an inverse relation between the depinning stress and the obstacle distance. It was found that (110)_oxide || (111)_Fe (oriented oxide) also had similar characteristics as that of (100)_oxide || (111)_Fe but resulted in an increased depinning stress thereby providing greater resistance to dislocation bypass. Our simulation results concluded that critical depinning stress depends significantly on the size and orientation of the oxide.

Interest in flexible transparent conducting films (TCFs) has been growing recently mainly due to the demand for electrodes incorporated in flexible or wearable displays in the future. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity.

The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then was doped with Au-ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. This was confirmed and discussed on the XPS and UPS studies. We show that 87 ${\Omega}/{\Box}$ sheet resistances with 81% transmittance at the wavelength of 550nm. The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after Au-ionic doping treatments were discussed. The effect of Au-ion treatment on the electronic structure change of SWNT films was investigated by Raman and XPS.
