The NO$_2$gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films of Copper-tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine(CuTBP). The optimum conditions for a film deposition were obtained through a study of $\pi$-A isotherms, and the deposited film status was confirmed by the ellipsometry measurements. It was found that at room temperature there are increments of electrical conductivities by 40 times, 25 seconds of response time and 40 seconds of response time when the films were exposed to the 200ppm NO$_2$gases. We hale observed an increase of the electrical conductivities as the density of NO2 gas increases.

Thin films of $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3$)PZT) were grown on $Pt/SiO_2/Si(100)$ at various temperatures by RF magnetron sputtering method. Surface morphology of these films were studied by using Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). These films were also analyzed by using Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). These films were also analyzed by using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy(XPS) for determining their chemical composition and their depth profile. It was found that the films grown at the substrated temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ have much more smooth surface characteristics in comparison to those films grown at room temperature, which may be explained in terms of surface mobility of ad-atoms such as Pb. It was also found that Pb enrichment in the near surface region enhanced for the films grown at higher substate temperature.

This study describes tensile test results under room and elevated temperatures for AISI 304 stainless steel which is widely used for a airframe structural material. Tensile tests were conducted according to ASTM standards. Reliability analysis was conducted by using normal probability paper to evaluate A and B basis tensile strengths applicable to airframe structural design.

To evaluate transport-induced cladding embrittlement after interim-dry storage, ring compression tests were carried out at room temperature(RT) and 135 ℃. The ring compression test specimens were prepared by simulating the interim-dry storage conditions that include four peak cladding temperatures of 250, 300, 350 and 400 ℃, two tensile hoop stresses of 80 and 100 MPa, two hydrogen contents of 250 and 500 wt.ppm-H and a cooling rate of 0.3 ℃/min. Radial hydride fractions of the ring specimens vary depending on those interim-dry storage conditions. The RT compression tests generated lower offset strains than the 135 ℃ ones. In addition, the RT and 135 ℃ compression tests indicate that a higher peak cladding temperature, a higher tensile hoop stress and the lower hydrogen content generated a lower offset strain. Based on the embrittlement criterion of 2.0% offset strain, an allowable peak temperature during the interim-dry storage may be proposed to be less than 350 ℃ under the tensile hoop stress of 80 MPa at the terminal cool-down temperature of 135 ℃.

The effect of temperature on the forming limit diagram was investigated for AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet through the limit dome height test in the range from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$. The formability of AZ31B sheet was improved significantly according to the increasing temperature. Also we studied the springback characteristics through the 2D draw bending test with different blank holding forces at elevated temperatures. Springback quantity was considerably reduced as temperature went up. The blank holding force in the range used, however, had little influence on springback. Experimental results obtained in this study may provide a material database for AZ31B sheet.

Magnesium sheet alloys possess limited plastic formability at room temperature but their formability is substantially improved at elevated temperatures and optimum strain rates. In the present paper, three different types of failure criteria, namely, strain-based, stress-based, and work-based criteria, are compared for their applicability to warm press forming of magnesium sheet alloys. Warm deep-drawing experiments were conducted on AZ31 alloy sheet, and the results were used to assess the strength and weakness of the failure criteria.

As polymer concrete become more widely used by design engineers, it is important that the viscoelastic mechanical behavior of these materials is properly taken into account. Also, an important consideration in the design of polymer concrete is the behavior of creep according to ages of polymer concrete. In this study, flexural creep test was performed on recycled-PET polymer concrete. An method of accelerating the flexural creep tests, called the two-point method, was developed. The two-point method uses the results of three 24-hours creep tests performed at elevated temperatures to develop a Prony series equation that predicts the long-term creep strains at room temperature. The test results demonstrated that two-point method can predict long-term creep strain with sufficient accuracy. The difference between the predicted creep compliance values from those obtained experimentally was less than 5 percent.

Using two kinds of ZrO2 powder stabilized by 8 mol% and 3 mol% of Y2O3 several microstructures were designed; two single composition specimens of 8 mol% Y2O3-ZrO3 and 3 mol% Y2O3-ZrO2 and five mixture specimens with multi-layered structure and particulate mixture structure at a mixing ratio of 1:1 by weight. Electrical conductivities were measured from 250 to 75$0^{\circ}C$ in air using an impedance analyser, and fracture toughness at room temperature using the indentation method. Making the mixture structures was more effective in enhancing fracture toughness than electrical conductivity. At low temperatures 3 mol% Y2O3-ZrO2 showed the highest values in both electrical conductivity and fracture toughness, while at high temperature the specimens of alternately stacked planar and coarse granulated structure were most favorable.

Although several kinds of conduction mechanism of PTC thermistor have been reported, there were few satisfying results. In this paper, the reported conduction mechanism theories were scrutinized and analyzed by using the experimental results. PTC thermistors for this study were manufactured by adding Sb$\_$2/O$\_$3/, AI$\_$2/O$\_$3/, TiO$\_$2/, and SiO$\_$2/ to BaTiO$\_$3/, and by sintering it at different temperatures. In order to analyze the conduction mechanism, R-T characteristics and its frequency dependence of specimens were measured. And also, the structures of specimens were studied. Especially this paper emphasized the explanation of the resistivity characteristics as the grain growth state of PTC thermistor specimens with respect to soaking temperature. According to the results, the resistivity of PTC thermistor whose grain was formed by semiconducting, was independent to the grain size at room temperature. For small and uniform grain size, the slope of the resistivity near the Curie temperature and the resistivity above the Curie temperature became greater and PTCR effect was improved.

In this study, polyurethane acrylate macromer was synthesized and it was used in a gel polymer electrolyte, and then its electrochemical performances were evaluated. LiCoO$_2$/GPE/MCF cells were also prepared and their performances depending on discharge currents and temperatures were evaluated. ionic conductivity of the gel polymer electrolyte with PUA at room temperature and -20$^{\circ}C$ was ca. 4.5 x 10$\^$-3/ S/cm and 1.7${\times}$10$\^$-3/ S/cm, respectively. GPE was stable electrochemically up to 4.5 V vs. Li/Li$\^$+/. LiCoO$_2$/GPE/MCF cell showed a good high-rate and a low-temperature performance.
