알파비적밀도의 이론계산방법을 개발하기 위하여 정전기방법을 이용한 분광계를 특별히 설계 제작하였다. 이 정전기분광계를 사용하여 라돈의 첫째딸핵종인 Po-218의 이온에 대해 $0.07{\sim}5.0cm^2/V\;sec$ 범위의 이동도스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 이 측정은 실리카겔, 활성탄, 분자구조의 시브필터를 통과한 탈입자가스를 사용하는 라돈쳄버내에서 수행되었다. 제작된 정전기분광계를 사용하여 쳄버내에서 새로 생성된 Po-218이온의 이동도는 $1.92cm^2/V\;s$인 것으로 측정되었다. 알파비적밀도의 이론적계산방법에 의해 얻어진 결과를 측정에 의해 얻어진 결과와 비교하였으며 측정된 스펙트럼에 관계된 불확실도를 분석하였다. 이론계산방법에 의해 얻어진 알파비적밀도와 측정된 값과의 차이에 대한 이유는 이론계산방법에서 이온의 라돈 쳄버에서의 벽제거효과를 고려하지 않았기 때문인 것으로 밝혀졌다.

저온 냉각상태 및 냉각 후 상온 해빙 상태에서 암석의 모드 I 파괴인성을 BDT와 CCNBD시험편을 사용하여 구하였다. 실험 온도 범위는 상온($25^{\circ}C$)에서 -16$0^{\circ}C$로 설정하였으며 건조 및 포화된 화강암과 사암을 사용하여 파괴인성에 대한 공극수와 공극률의 영향 정도를 조사하고자 하였다. 또한 냉각 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 열균열을 조사하기 위해서 SEM 이미지 분석도 실시하였다. 냉각된 암석의 파괴인성은 온도가 하강함에 따라 증가하였다. 이러한 증가경향은 포화시료에서 더 크게 나타났으며, 포화 시료의 경우 화강암의 증가율이 사암에 비해 크게 나타났다. 냉각 후 상온 해빙 상태에서 구한 파괴인성의 경우, 냉각을 거 치지 않은 상온 상태의 파괴인성 값의 15% 이내에서 결정되었다. 냉각-해빙을 거친 시료에 대한 SEM 분석결과 화강암의 경우 조암광물간의 열팽창 차이에 의한 열균열을 확인할 수 있었으며 냉각온도가 낮을수록 균열밀도가 증가하였다.

Sound absorbing materials are being developed in various materials and shapes and they are being applied in many fields such as construction, transportation, civil engineering, and sound. Among many sound-absorbing materials, polyester fiber has no environmental problems and harmfulness, and is a material with good sound absorption properties while being inexpensive. So it is manufactured as a nonwoven sound-absorbing material and used in various fields. In this study, polyester dry-laid nonwoven with different basis weight were manufactured using three types of polyester staple fibers: regular solid, single-hole hollow, and low linear density. We focused on the effects of the properties of the fibers, which constitute nonwovens, on the sound absorption properties, and we considered the basis weight. As the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric increased, the pore size became smaller and the air permeability was lowered, but the sound absorption coefficient was higher. However, the single-hole hollow polyester fiber did not contribute to the increase of the sound absorption coefficient of the nonwoven. It was established that, lower fiber fineness caused the sound absorption coefficient of the nonwoven to be increased. It was also found that the increase in the sound absorption coefficient due to the application of low fineness appeared from a certain basis weight or more.

As high-level radioactive waste (HLW) generated from nuclear power plants is harmful to the human body, it must be safely disposed of by an engineered barrier system consisting of disposal canisters and buffer and backfill materials. A gap exists between the canister and buffer material in a HLW repository and between the buffer material and natural rock-this gap may reduce the water-blocking ability and heat transfer efficiency of the engineered barrier materials. Herein, the basic characteristics and thermal properties of granular bentonite, a candidate gap-filling material, were investigated, and their effects on the temperature change of the buffer material were analyzed numerically. Heat transfer by air conduction and convection in the gap were considered simultaneously. Moreover, by applying the Korean reference disposal system, changes in the properties of the buffer material were derived, and the basic design of the engineered barrier system was presented according to the gap filling material (GFM). The findings showed that a GFM with high initial thermal conductivity must be filled in the space between the buffer material and rock. Moreover, the target dry density of the buffer material varied according to the initial wet density, specific gravity, and water content values of the GFM.

In magnetic hard disk drives, higher areal recording density requires reduction of head-disk spacing. To overcome the increase of stiction associated with reduction of head-disk spacing, a padder slider, which adds pads to slider's air bearing surface, can be one of the practical solution for sub 20 nm flying height, and even for near contact recording. This study investigated the tribological characteristics of a padder slider. A padder slider took off slowly but showed less friction force than a normal slider. The hot/dry CSS test and drag test indicated that pad wear of a padder slider was negligible. The tribological performance of disk is an important factor to be considered. In particular, less carbon overcoat layer of the disk will result in higher stiction and wear in slider/disk interface. In conclusion, a padder slider shows encouraging tribological performances for practical use in HDD.

Purpose: Foam concrete is the concrete that contains large amount of air voids inside. In general, the density of foam concrete depends on parameters like water/binder ratio, foam volume, aggregate and pozzolan content, etc. Method: In this study, the effect of foam volume and fly ash content on dry density is investigated intensively in order to find the relationship between each parameter and their abilities to counteract with each other. According to the above information, though there are quite a number of studies on the effect micro fiber on foam concrete at low volume fractions, there is still lack of information especially on the high fiber content side. The objective of the second study is to investigate further on the use of micro fiber at higher volume fraction and fill in the lacking information. Beside from this study, the investigation of the effect of micro-fiber (polypropylene) to enhance the properties of foam concrete is also carried out. Result: Of the two variables that are investigated in this study, the foam volume and the fly ash content, show significant effect on the properties of foam concrete. The foam volume tends to decrease the density and strength of foam concrete. In the second part of our study, a large fibre volume fraction is proved to be able to evidently increase the flexural strength of foam concrete up to about 40% due to the effect of fibre bridging over the crack and a significant number of fibres that intercepts the crack surfaces. However, the compressive strength is found to decrease severely due to the occurrence of large pores as the result of fibre being added into concrete mixture.

This study was conducted to determine some physical and chemical properties of the soil and their relationship to spectroscopic-based (visible range) analytical methods while evaluating soil organic matter fractions and soil quality in degraded and non-degraded soils in a wide range of environments. Soil samples were collected from the different landscape positions of cultivated and noncultivated soils, and the latter from the same landscape positions but with different vegetation, at Songco, Lantapan, Bukidnon. The physical and chemical properties of the soils were determined at the SPAL, CMU, Musuan, Bukidnon while the metagenomic properties were determined at the Laboratory of the University of Missourri, Missourri, USA. Bulk density and air dry soil strength values of the soils from the cultivated areas were generally higher than those of the uncultivated areas. Also, soils at the summit generally had lower bulk density and soil strength values than the other landscape positions. Moreover, soils planted to camote (Ipomoea batatas) had higher bulk density and soil strength values compared to soils grown to pepper under the trees. Exchangeable calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K) and cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the soils were generally higher in uncultivated areas than those of the cultivated areas. A similar trend was observed for the potassium permanganate ($KMnO_4$)-oxidizable organic C contents determined by spectroscopic method and the total C contents determined by the Walkley-Black method. The $KMnO_4$-oxidizable organic C contents determined by spectroscopic method and the total C contents determined by the Walkley-Black method were closely related ($r=0.631^{**}$). Hence, the former method shows promise in assessing soil quality as it is a rapid test, relatively low cost and can be distributed as a field kit either with a portable spectrometer or with a color chart.

DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge) plasma in air is well established for the production of large quantities of ozone and is more recently being applied to aftertreatment processes for HAPs(Hazardous Air Pollutants). Although DBD high electron density and energy, its potential use as nano and sub-micron sized particle charging are not well known. Aim of this work is to determine design and operating parameters of a two-stage ESP with DBD. DBD and ESP are used as particle charger and precipitator, respectively. We measured particle precipitation efficiency of two-stage ESP and estimated ozone decomposition of both pelletized $MnO_2$ catalyst and pelletized activated carbon. To examine the particle precipitation efficiency, nano and sub-micron sized particles were generated by a tube furnace and an atomizer. AC voltage of $7{\sim}10$ kV(rms) and 60 Hz is used as DBD plasma source. DC -8 kV is applied to the ESP for particle precipitation. The overall particle collection efficiency for the two-stage ESP with DBD is over 85 % under 0.64 m/s face velocity. Ozone decomposition efficiency with pelletized $MnO_2$ catalyst or pelletized activated carbon packed bed is over 90 % when the face velocity is under 0.4 m/s in dry air.

The amounts of organic matter present in soil and the rate of soil organic matter (SOM) turnover are influenced by agricultural management practice, such as rotation, tillage, forage plow down direct seeding and manure application. The amount of nutrients released from SOM is highly dependent upon the state of the organic matter. If it contains a large proportion of light fractions (low-density) more nutrients will be available to the glowing crops. However, if it contains mostly heavy fractions (high-density) that are difficult to breakdown, then lesser amounts of nutrients will be available. The state of the SOM and subsequent release of nutrients into the soil can be predicted by NIRS as long as a robust regression equation is developed. The NIRS method is known for its rapidity, convenience, simplicity, accuracy and ability to analyze many constituents at the same time. Our hypothesis is that the NIRS technique allows researchers to investigate fully and in more detail each field for the status of SOM, available moisture and other soil properties in Alberta soils for precision farming in the near future. One hundred thirty one (131) Alberta soils with various levels (low 2-6%, medium 6-10%, and high >10%) of organic matter content and most of dry land soils, including some irrigated soils from Southern Alberta, under various management practices were collected throughout Northern, Central and Southern Alberta. Two depths (0- 15 cm and 15-30 cm) of soils from Northern Alberta were also collected. These air-dried soil samples were ground through 2 mm sieve and scanned using Foss NIR System 6500 with transport module and natural product cell. With particle size above 150 microns only, the “Ludox” method (Meijboom, Hassink and van Noorwijk, Soil Biol. Biochem.27: 1109-1111, 1995) which uses stable silica, was used to fractionate SOM into light, medium and heavy fractions with densities of <1.13, 1.13-1.37 and >1.37 respectively, The SOM fraction with the particle size below 150 microns was discarded because practically, this fraction with very fine particles can't be further separated by wet sieving based on density. Total organic matter content, mechanical texture, ash after 375$^{\circ}C$, and dry matter (DM) were also determined by “standard” soil analysis methods. The NIRS regression equations were developed using Infra-Soft-International (ISI) software, version 3.11.
