In the present work, hot workability of particulate-reinforced Al6061-20%SiC composite produced by direct hot extrusion technique was studied. Uniaxial hot compression test at various temperatures and strain rates was used and the workability behavior was evaluated from the flow curves and the attendant microstructures. It was shown that the presence of SiC particles in the soft Al6061 matrix deteriorates the hot workability. Bulging of the specimens and flow lines were observed, which indicate the plastic instability during hot working. Microstructure of the composites after hot deformation was found to be heterogeneous, i.e. the reinforcement clusters were observed at the flow lines. The mechanism of deformation was found to be controlled primarily by dynamic recrystallization.

A laboratory scale extended aeration system was installed to study the effects of DO control and intermittent aeration on energy saving and nitrogen removal. The sensors of pH, DO, ORP, MLSS, and WT were installed in the aerator to monitor them and automatically control DO concentration as 2 mg/$\ell$. In the conditions showing nitrate knee on the ORP curves, nitrogen removal rates were kept over 91%. A 72.4 % of energy saving was achieved by intermittent aeration comparing with continuous aeration.

Yielding is an important feature of the stress-strain behavior of clays. This study was performed to estabilish the yielding curves and properties for a marine caly from Jangheung. Chonnam Province . A series of tests was done by means of the various stress path tests. Results of the tests are as follows ; 1) The laboratory -determined Ko is very similar to that applied to the Jaky equation. 2) The shape of yielding curve is nealry symmetrical about the p' axis like other natural clays. 3) The critical state parameters, Mc and Me are the same for compression and extension tests which contrasts with the results of the isotropically consolidated soils. 4) The state boundary suface using the critical state paratmers can resresent the normalized yielding curve obtained by various stress path experiments.

The adsorption of quinine, atropine and methylrozaniline chloride from aqueous phase by different kaolins was studied to innovated utilization of Korean kaolins as pharmaceutical agents. The adsorption isotherms were determined at $27{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and the results were plotted according to the Langmuir equation. The Langmuir constants were calculated from adsorption isotherms of quinine and methylrozaniline chloride; a=1.46, 1.34 b=5.7, 9.3 and slope=0.175, 0.108, respectively. The kaolins gave the same type of curves with the two alkaloids and methylrozaniline chloride. The white colored premium grade kaolins were better adsorbent for the alkaloids and methylrozaniline chloride than the lower grade ones. The results indicate that the premium grade kaolins could be utilized as an ingredients in intestinal preparations. The condition of activation for the better adsorption was under the cases with the higher temperature and the lower pressure. The smaller particle size, the greater was adsorption power and the activated kaolins had superior adsorptive properties at higher pH value than at higher hydrogen-concentrations.

This study investigated the adsorption characteristics of nickel, zinc and cadmium ions from the aqueous solution onto the alginate bead. Adsorption equilibrium capacities of the heavy metal ions increased with increasing initial pH of the solution. The adsorption equilibrium isotherm of the heavy metal ions was well represented by Langmuir equation. The magnitude of adsorption capacity of the heavy metal ions onto alginate bead was the order of cadmium > zinc > nickel. Kinetic parameters were measured in a batch adsorber to analyze the adsorption rates of the heavy metal ions. The internal diffusion coefficient of the heavy metal ions in the intraparticle were determined by comparing the experimental concentration curves with those predicted from the surface diffusion model (SDM) and pore diffusion model (PDM). The internal diffusion of the heavy metal ions in the intraparticles was explained by PDM.

Piezoresistive pressure sensors have fabricated using electrochemical etch-stop technique. Si diaphragm having thickness of n-epi. layer was fabricated and used to detect pressure range from 0 to 1 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Piezoresistors were diffused 3${\times}$10$\^$18/ cm$\^$-3/ and placed at diaphragm edge for maximum pressure detection. The characteristics of electrochemical etch-stop in TMAH/lPA/pyrazine solution were also discussed. I-V curves of n and p-type Si in TMAH/lPA/pyrazine solution were obtained. Etching rate is highest at optimum etching condition, TMAH 25wt.%/IPA 17vo1.%/pyrazine 0.1/100m1, thus the elapsed time of etch-stop was reduced.

To place concrete overlays has become a standard application in the strengthening and rehabilitation of concrete structures such as bridges, tunnels, parking decks and industrial buildings. In general, connectors are used to ensure a monolithic behavior of the two concrete layers. Within the framework of the development of a new connector wedge splitting tests and shear tests were performed, in addition nonlinear finite element analyses were applied to investigate the load transfer behavior of the connectors for different prototypes. The numerical simulation results were compared to experimental data. The computed load-displacement curve demonstrates good correspondence with the curves obtained in the experiments, and the experimental crack patterns are reasonably simulated by the computed crack propagation. Both numerical and experimental investigations on the wedge splitting test and on the shear test served as basis for the development of new type of connectors.

Asymmetrical reinforcement for circular sections in wall piles is an efficient construction component with reduced embodied energy. It has been proven that asymmetrical reinforced wall piles may save more than 50% of the reinforcement than the traditional symmetrically reinforced circular sections. The use of this new type of structural member increases the number of variables in the design problem, which makes its use by engineers more complicated. In order to facilitate the use of the asymmetrically reinforced piles, this paper presents a criterion for the design of this type of structural member. The chosen criterion has been analyzed with the help of flexural capacity-cost curves. The new criterion is similar to the design procedure traditionally used for RC beams.

A model is presented to explain charging phenomena into the oxide layer when a metal-oxide-silicon(MOS) capacitor is driven by a large amplitude and high frequency ac signal sufficient to produce avalanche injection in the silicon. During avalanche, minority carriers are injected. It is assumed that some of these minority carriers attain sufficient energy to surmount the potential barrier at the interface, and then inter the oxide. Measurements of C-V curves are made for the MOS capacitor with p-type silicon substrates before and after avalanche injection. This paper studies how charging in the oxide and the interface depends on oxide properties. It is concluded that this charging effect is related to the presence of water in the oxide.

This paper presents the leakage current characteristics of ZnO varistors exposed to the $8/20{\mu}s$ lightning impulse currents as functions of the number of injection and amplitude of impulse currents. The surge simulator system ECAT that can generate $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents with a peak short-circuit of $5[kA_p]$ was used. Leakage currents flowing through ZnO varistors subjected to the $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents were measured under 60 Hz AC voltages. The trend curves of resistive leakage current of ZnO varistors were analytically calculated.
