Recently, it is very necessary the development of the manufacturing techniques for high strength concrete(HSC) for the large-scale size and good quality of civil structure. But, the manufacture and quality control of HSC of which shrinkage, heat of hydration and workability at construction filed are considered, is very difficult due to its low water-cement ratio and high quantity of unit cement content. In the present study, we tried to know and assess the influences of chemical and physical properties of cement on the material properties of HSC. We analyzed basic properties of 4 kinds of cement whose chemical and physical properties are different each other through various tests such as chemical analysis and mortal test. Also, we performed the assessment of the material properties of HSC for each dement by the test for the conditions of same mix design and similar compressive strength. From the results in the study, the assessment of the important quality factors of cement influencing the properties of HSC may be utilized to quality control of applied cement to manufacture the HSC of high quality.

The properties of porous silicon, such as substrate properties, porosity, thickness, refractive index, surface area, and optical properties of porous silicon were reviewed. Some properties, such as porosity, refractive index, thickness, pore diameter, multi-structures, and optical properties, are strongly dependent on the anodization process parameters. These parameters include HF concentration, current density, anodization time, and silicon wafer type and resistivity.

Effects of additives on physical properties of dover sole skin gelatin prepared by fractional precipitation with ethanol were investigated to obtain basic data for utilizing as food protein source. Physical properties such as gel strength, melting point, gelling point and viscosity of both ethanol- and non-treated gelatins were improved as ferric ion, sugar and ethanol were added to gelatin sol, but were deteriorated as sodium hydroxide and acids were added. Insignificant difference in effects of physical properties on additives such as ferric ion, sodium chloride, sugar, acids and ethanol between ethanol- and non-treated gelatins were not observed.

In the repair and repair works, epoxy resins are widely used as repair materials. The successful concrete repairs and retrofit works depends on the quality of the repair and retrofit materials. Although many materials for the repairs and retrofit have been developed in many contries, information on the repair methods are somewhat limited. Futhermore, the repairs and retrofit methods are also largely dependent on those froms in other developed contries, it is necessary to initiate rather fundamental repair-related research. The purpose of this study is to investigate th physical and mechanical properties of epoxy resin which is commonly used in repairing concrte crack in RC structures. The basic physical properties such as specific gravity, gel point and shrinkage ratio as well as the mechanical properties such ad the tensile and compressive strength, elastic modulus were acquired by the standard test method (KS code). For the test results, the great deviations of physical and mechanical properties among the test materials were discovered and is, therefore, recommended that careful attentions should be give in selecting the epoxy resin by considering the characteristics of the repair materials and repair works.

The physical and antibacterial properties of ophthalmic lenses fabricated by copolymerization with hydrogel monomers using two types of graphene were measured, and their usability as contact lens materials was analyzed. For polymerization, silicone monomers, including SID-OH, 3-(methacryloxy)propyl tris(trimethylsiloxy)silane, and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, were used, and N,N-dimethylacetamide, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a crosslinking agent, and azobisisobutyronitrile as an initiator were added. Also, graphene oxide nanoparticle (GON) and graphene nanoplate (GNP) were used as an additive, and the physical properties of the lenses fabricated after copolymerization were evaluated. The fabricated lenses satisfied the basic physical properties of general hydrogel contact lenses and showed the characteristics of lenses with high water content, and the disadvantage of very weak durability, due to low tensile strength. However, it was confirmed that the tensile strength and antibacterial properties were greatly improved by adding GON and GNP. With GON, the oxygen permeability and refractive index of the fabricated lenses were slightly improved. Therefore, it was determined that the graphene materials used in this study can be used in various ways as a contact lens material.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antifungal effect of several kinds of denture lining materials containing nystatin and silver-zeolite on Candida albicans. Three commercially available tissue conditioners (Soft-Liner, Coe-Comfort, Coe-Soft) and two direct denture relining materials (Tokuso Rebase, Durabase) were selected. In terms of the zone of inhibition and some basic physical properties, I could find the following results ; 1. Nystatin or silver-zeolite included in those relining materials had definite antifungal activities against the Candida albicans. 2. As times went on, both of the antifungal agents's activities decreased gradually. 3. Antifungal agents did not affect the relining materials' basic physical properties. 4 Direct chairside relining materials showed unfavorable dark discoloration with response to silver-zeolite.

This study used cerium iron hydroxide nanoparticle with HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), the cross-linker EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate), NVP (N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) and the initiator AIBN (azobisisobutyronitrile) for copolymerization. Also, the physical properties of the prepared lenses were compared, and their applicability as polymers for ophthalmic materials was experimented. The results of the measurement showed that the UV blocking rate and the wettability increased with the cerium iron hydroxide nanoparticles addition ratio, and the refractive index and water content were not affected. Thus, the produced copolymer is expected to be useful as a functional contact lens material while satisfying the basic physical properties of the hydrogel contact lens.

The aggregates with the different mineralogical features are studied how to affect the basic physical properties of concretes according to the changes of the chemical composition, mineralogical composition, crystal size, the standard qualities in the aggregates in using chemical analysis, X.R.D. DT-TGA, polarized light microscope, streoscopic microscope, standard test method of aggregates & concretes. At this studies, we found that aggregates without the seathered mineral such as muscovite & kaolin mineral etc, is superior to the others with the weathered mineral, even if it's standard qualities are inferiored to the other's. For examples, in manufacturing high strength concretes. The strength of concretes used aggregates without weathered mineral are improved about 15% than the other's and also. For general mixture to manufacture remicon, more about 10-20% than the other's strength and workability.

About 70% of domestic land is mountainous and the construction of many geotechnical structures is inevitable for building transportation networks across region. Many geotechnical surveys, including rock physical and mechanical tests, are performed during construction. Thus study is a basic research for establishing database of physical and mechanical properties in domestic rocks, and analyzing the rock mechanical relationships between 2,000 rock properties obtained from laboratory tests in KOLAS. For the construction of useful database, systematic management, based on the standard information as well as reliable data accumulation, is required.

The physical properties of a seafloor sediment have been used as a basic data for the ocean survey. Conventional methods such as a coring, a drilling, and a grabbing have been used to explore the physical properties but these methods have a number of shortcomings as it is time consuming, expensive and spatially limited. To overcome these limitations, seafloor sediment classification using acoustic signals has been studied actively. In this paper, we obtained the backscattered signal from the seafloor sediment using an echo sounder which is one kind of seafloor topography equipment. Nakagami probability density function of the backscattered signals from the seafloor sediment was computed and a Nakagami parameter was compared with the physical properties of the seafloor sediment. We have confirmed that Nakagami parameter, m is correlated with the physical properties of a seafloor sediment. This study will be utilized as a basic data of the seafloor sediment research.
