Pile foundations constructed by the fiber reinforced polymer plastic piles have been used in coastal and oceanic regions in many countries. Generally, fiber reinforced polymer plastic piles are consisted of filament winding FRP which is used to wrap the outside of concrete pile to increase the axial load carrying capacity or pultruded FRP which is located in the core concrete to resist the bending moment arising due to eccentric loading. In this paper, the analytical procedures of hybrid concrete filled FRP tube flexural members are suggested based on the CFT design method. Moreover, the analytical results are compared with the experimental results to obtained by the previous researches. The results of comparison analyses are performed to estimate the accuracy of the analytical procedure for hybrid FRP-concrete composite compression test, members under eccentrical loading.

In order to estimate space charging process in the corona charging apparatus which has been used to make polymer electret cell, the electrical properties of 30[${\mu}m$] thick polypropylene film were obtained from TSC measurement after corona charging between copper knife electrode and aluminum cylinder electrode with the voltage of -8, -7, -6, -5 (kV). And, the electrostatic contour and the electric field vector were calculated using Finite Element Method with the electrical properties obtained from TSC spectra analysis. The edge effect around the edge of knife electrode affects electrostatic contour on the surface of specimen and the electric field concentration inside the polymer. As a result the uneven charging state in the electret cell due to the mistake of design was calculated, and the optimal design of corona charging apparatus opprobriate to various specimen was come to be practicable.

This paper describes a novel processing technique for fabrication of polymer-derived SiCN (silicone carbonitride) microstructures for super-temperature MEMS applications. PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) mold is fabricated on SU-8 photoresist using standard UV photolithographic process. Liquid precursor is injected into the PDMS mold. Finally, solid polymer structure is cross-linked using HIP (hot isostatic pressure) at $400^{\circ}C$, 205 bar. Optimum pyrolysis and annealing conditions are determined to form a ceramic microstructure capable of withstanding over $1400^{\circ}C$. The fabricated SiCN ceramic microstructure has excellent characteristics, such as shear strength (15.2 N), insulation resistance ($2.163{\times}10^{14}{\Omega}$) and BDV (min. 1.2 kV) under optimum process condition. These fabricated SiCN ceramic microstructures have greater electric and physical characteristics than bulk Si wafer. The fabricated SiCN microstructures would be applied for supertemperature MEMS applications such as heat exchanger and combustion chamber.

고분자 전해질 연료전지(PEMFC, polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell)는 수소이온특성을 갖는 고분자막을 전해질로 사용하는 연료전지로서 무공해 차량의 동력원, 가정용 발전, 우주선용 전원, 군사용 전원 등 매우 다양한 부분에서 사용되어질 것으로 사료된다. 하지만 현재 높은 가격과 짧은 수명 등의 문제로 상용화에 이르지 못하고 있다. 고분자전해질 연료전지의 스택 가격을 부품별로 조사하여 보면 분리판이 전체 스택가격의 60% 정도가 가장 높은 비중을 차지하며 기체 확산층으로 사용되는 탄소재료가 12%,전해질이 10%, 촉매가 8% 정도를 차지한다. 촉매 또한 저가의 비귀금속 촉매를 개발하거나 백금 촉매의 성능을 향상시켜 촉매 사용량을 낮춤으로써 가격을 낮추기 위한 연구가 진행되어지고 있으며 전해질로 사용하는 고분자막도 가격이 매우 높은 Nafion 대신 저가 고분자를 개발하거나, 또는 가능한 얇은 전해질을 사용하기 위한 노력이 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 아직까지는 뚜렷한 진척성과가 없는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 고분자 전해질 연료전지의 고분자 Membrane의 특성을 향상시키고 또한 박막의 배양성과 특성에 대해서 고찰해 보고자한다.

본 연구에서는 ITO/PEDOT:PSS//PFO:MEH-PPV/LiF/Al 구조를 갖는 고분자 유기발광다이오드를 제작하여 발광 도펀트인 MEH-PPV의 농도에 따른 황색 PLED 소자의 전기 광학적 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. MEH-PPV의 농도를 각각 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 wt% 로 변화시켜 소자를 평가한 결과 9 wt%의 농도에서 가장 우수한 전기 및 광학적 특성을 보였으며, 16 V의 인가전압에서 약 630 cd/$m^2$의 휘도 특성과 256 mA/$cm^2$의 전류밀도 특성이 관찰되었다. 또한 10 wt%의 소자에서는 오히려 낮은 광학적 특성이 관찰되어 9 wt%에서 도펀트의 농도가 포화됨이 관찰되었고, 제작된 소자의 색좌표 (CIE coordiante)는 모든 소자에서 (x, y = 0,49, 0.49)로 거의 동일하게 나타났다.

Nitrogen releasing characteristics of polymer-coated urea(PCU) that made acrylic synthetic resins were studied in incubated soil, water and paddy soil. Also, their correlations and degradation patterns of coating material were tested. Releasing rate of nitrogen from PCU decreased with increasing coating rate. N001(coating rate 8.5%) and N003(coasting rater 6.3%) were low releasing amount at the early stage, whereas N005(coating rate 4.8%) was released over 80% within 20 days. Relationship of the releasing rate between incubated soil($25^{\circ}C$) and paddy soil could be described as follows : $Y=-0.0011X^2+2.2931X-50.264(R^2=0.9884)$ for N001, $Y=-0.0016X^2+1.1587X+5.5064(R^2=0.9805)$ for N003 and $Y=-0.03X^2+6.499X-243.22(R^2=0.9422)$ for N005, respectively (Y: release rate at field condition, X: experiment period). Relationship of the releasing rate between incubated water($30^{\circ}C$) and paddy soil can be described as follows : $Y=0.0011X^2+2.2601X-25.329(R^2=0.9884)$ for N001, $Y=-0.0306X^2+4.4994X-76.307(R^2=0.955)$ for N003 and $Y=-0.0164X^2+3.7764X-108.22(R^2=0.9422)$ for N005. After 150 days, coating materials of N001, N003, and N005 in incubated soil were degraded approximately 23%, 22% and 15%, respectively. Also The scanning electron microscope examination of coating material revealed that particle surface became gradually shattered with the time after the soil treatment.

In order to evaluate NMR spectrometer as the analytical tool for identification of individual adjuvant in crop protection products, the standard sample of individual adjuvant was analyzed by NMR spectrometer and then the formulation of crop protection products was also analyzed. Almost polymer system of surfactant was a co-polymer and there was an excess of ethylene. The most intense signal comes from long polyethylene blocks, 70.5 ppm. The carbonyl groups of ester group resonate at 173.5 ppm. Analytical sample was prepared in NMR tube without extraction, cleanup, concentration, or chromatographic separation. Identification of individual adjuvant in crop protection products was conducted by comparison of sample and reference spectra. NMR spectrometer was useful to analyze adjuvant in crop protection products without preparation process.

In this study, the effects of the intake of Prunus sargentii R. seed oil on the lipid levels of mouse blood were compared to the effects of commercially available corn oils. Mice from the same purchase lot were separated into 3 groups [control (n=5), corn oil-treated group (n=5), and Prunus sargentii R. seed's oil-treated group (n=5)] of equal size. The oil-treated groups of mice were fed their respective supplemented diets for a total of 8 weeks. Prunus sargentii R. seed oil is high in palmitic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid. The kidney weights of mice fed Prunus sargentii R. seed oil were higher than those fed corn oil (p<0.05). The HDL-cholesterol (high density lipoprotein cholesterol) levels in mice fed Prunus sargentii R. seed oil ($124.40{\pm}20.19$mg/dl) were higher than those of mice fed corn oil (p<0.05). The total cholesterol level was highest in mice fed Prunus sargentii R. seed oil, but the LDL-cholesterol (low density lipoprotein cholesterol) level was lowest in mice fed Prunus sargentii R. seed oil. Therefore, Prunus sargentii R. seed oil may be a good resource as a natural oil material.

Micro lens array (MLA) is widely used in information technology (IT) industry fields, for examples such as a projection display, an optical power regulator, a micro mass spectrometer and for medical appliances. Recently, MLA have been fabricated and developed by using a reflow method, micro etching, electroplating, micromachining and laser local heating. Laser local thermal-expansion (LLTE) technology demonstrates the formation of microdots on the surface of polymer substrate, in this paper. We have also investigated the new direct fabrication method of placing the MLA on the surface of a SU-8 photoresist layer. We have obtained the 3D shape of the micro lens processed by UV laser irradiation and have experimentally verified the optimal process conditions.

Numerical visualization is conducted to confirm the variation of flow characteristics and pressure drop by the shape of channels on the cathode flow path in hydrogen fuel cells for unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs). Generally, a light-weight fan is commonly used rather than a heavy air compressor at UAVS. However, in case of blower fan, a large pressure drop in the flow path causes the blocking of the oxygen supply to the fuel cell. Therefore, the uniformity of flow inside the cathode has to be achieved by changing the shape of the cathode. The flow channel, the duct shape, and the diameter of the fan are changed to optimize the flow path. As a result, it is confirmed that the optimal flow path can decrease the velocity difference between the center and outer flow by 1.8%. However, It should be noted that the channel size can increase the pressure drop.
