To determine if Antarctic krill employ body shrinkage as one of its overwintering mechanisms in the field, Euphauia superba and Euphausia crystallorophias were collected during fall and winter in and around Marguerite Bay through US Southern Ocean GLOBEC field programs during fall and winter 2001 and 2002. The relationships between the body length and weight of both krill species were exponentially correlated with no significant differences between the two species (p>0.05). The ratio between eye diameter and body length of individual krill was examined in an expectation that it could be used as an indicator of the body shrinkage as previously suggested by Shin and Nicol (2002). These ratios were significantly different between the two krill species. Especially, E . crystallorophias had bigger eyes than E. superba. In both krill species, eye diameters were highly correlated with body lengths (regression coefficients ${\geq}0.70$). For E. crystallorophias, no significant differences of the ratio of eye diameter/body length were detected between fall and winter. Even though the ratios for E. superba were seasonally varied, it was not clear whether body shrinkage was an actual and critical overwintering mechanism for the krill population found in this study area. These results suggest that some individuals of E. superba might experience the body shrinkage during a part of their liff, but this morphological index alone (eye diameter/body length) may be insufficient to unambiguously separate the shrunk krill from the non-shrunk ones in the field-collected animals.

In this study, we examined the effect of hydroxyl radical generated by $\gamma$-ray and UV irradiation on shrinkage of vitreous body. Change in gel ratio of vitreous body and change in the properties of its components (collagen, sodium hyaluronate) were analyzed. By comparing these results, the amount of hydroxyl radical, which induces the considerable shrinkage of vitreous body, was evaluated from theoretical calculation based on experimental condition and some reported kinetic parameters. It was concluded that the integrated amount of hydroxyl radical required to liquefy half of the vitreous body (Vitreous body gel ratio = 50%) was estimated as $140\;{\mu}molg^{-1}$ from $\gamma$-ray irradiation experiment. Also, from UV irradiation experiment result, it was confirmed that the effect of hydroxyl radical is larger than that of other reactive species. The causes of shrinkage of vitreous body are supposed as follows, 1) decrease in viscosity by cleavage of glycoside bond in sodium hyaluronate, 2) leaching of collagen from vitreous body and 3) leaching of crosslinked products and scission products of collagen.

Purpose: This study compares how accurately the specimen produced by the machining method and the rapid prototyping method is produced and how much dimensional error occurs with the finished casting body, and presents the results as experimental comparative data. Methods: Specimens produced using a digital processing method were cast by a conventional dental casting process, and dimensional changes of the finished casting body were measured to compare shrinkage and expansion. Results: In the control group that did not artificially induce large swelling, the dimensional error was the smallest, and the shrinkage and expansion reactions cannot be elimainated in all processes. Conclusion: The shrinkage and expansion depend on the given conditions, so if there is a change in the traditional dental casting process, it is necessary to adjust all the parameters to obtain an accurate casting body.

An anorthite-based traditional ceramic was developed by adding secondary flux materials to a mixture of kaolin and $CaCO_3$ in order to minimize the deformation during the sintering process. Three flux materials, feldspar, talc, and frit, were evaluated by comparison with two commercial chinaware bodies. Anorthite body with glass frit exhibited poor firing shrinkage. Poor mechanical properties (modulus of rupture, MOR < 30 MPa) was observed for the bodies with feldspar. Another anorthite body was formulated with wollastonite as a Ca source. The fired body showed a MOR of 81 MPa and a shrinkage rate of 6% when wollastonite was added up to 50%. In the XRD analysis, the phase ratio between anorthite and quartz was the highest in the specimen with 50% wollastonite addition. Homogeneous and relatively small closed pores were observed in the microstructural analysis. These results suggest that a ceramic body formulated with 50% kaolin and 50% wollastonite can be fired at $1200^{\circ}C$ with a 6% firing shrinkage rate, giving rise to minimal sintering deformation.

시멘트계 기질을 사용하는 복합재료는 재료 양생 과정에서 발생하는 건조수축 균열에 취약하다. 본 연구에서는 파이버 보강 콘크리트의 건조수축에 의한 파괴 거동을 시뮬레이션 하고, 파이버의 조건이 균열 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석한다. 수치 해석 모델은 무작위 격자 형태의 기하학적 구조를 공유하는 관로 요소와 rigid-body-spring 요소로 구성되는데, 각 요소가 담당하는 비역학적-역학적 거동의 커플링에 의해 건조수축이 표현된다. 파이버 보강을 모델링하기 위해 rigid-bodyspring network 내부의 semi-discrete 파이버 요소를 적용하였다. KS F 2424 자유 건조수축 실험을 해석하고 시간에 따른 건조수축 변형률 변화를 비교함으로써 재료의 건조수축 관련 계수들을 산정한다. 다음으로 여러 파이버 혼입률에 대해 KS F 2595 구속 건조수축 실험을 시뮬레이션 하고 균열 발생 일자를 선행 실험 결과와 비교하여 해석 모델의 타당성을 검증한다. 또한, 파이버의 길이와 표면 형태를 변화시켜 건조수축 균열 해석을 수행하고 최대 균열 폭을 측정하여 시뮬레이션에서 나타나는 균열 제어 효과를 판단한다.

We investigated body shrinkage, defined as change in standard length and body weight of juvenile chub mackerel Scomber japonicus after preservation in 70% ethyl alcohol for 1, 8, or 12 days. Standard length (SL) was decreased by 3.6% and body weight (BW) was reduced by 27.5% after 8 day of preservation. There were no significant decreases in SL and BW after 8 or 12 days preservation. Linear regression equations for estimation of original body size from the size after preservation in 70% ethyl alcohol for 12 days were expressed as: $SL_{original}=0.96SL_{preserved}+5.17$ and $BW_{original}=1.16BW_{preserved}+0.37$. These equations will be useful for improving accuracy the estimation accuracy for various size-related biological parameters in juvenile chub mackerel juvenile.

Two dinnerware porcelain bodies involving partial replacement of feldspar and kaoline by about 35wt% domestic GYUNGJU-pottery stone were developed and their properties such as shrinkage, porosity, firing range, linear thermal expansion, pyroplastic deformation, degree of whiteness and mechanical strength were compared with those of a traditional clay-flint-feldspar body. The experimental results showed that one of the clay-flint-feldspar-pottery stone body with 1% ZnO addition had the firing range of 115$0^{\circ}C$~121$0^{\circ}C$, whereas the traditional body had the firing range of 12$25^{\circ}C$~129$0^{\circ}C$. The linear drying shrinkage and linear dry-to-fired shrinkage of all bodies were 2.5~4.5% and 15~18%, respectively. And the major crystalline phases of sintered bodies were $\alpha$-quartz and secondary mullite surrounded by glassy phases. The modulus of rutpture of sintered bodies was ranged from 860 to 870kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and the microhardness of sintered bodies was 680 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

After concrete casts, temperature decent and shrinkage bring volume changes of concrete pavement. Microcracking and cracking in concrete pavement are caused by these volume changes. As a result, durability of concrete pavement is deteriorated. Recently, Very-Early Strength Latex Modified concrete(below:VESLMC) from the beginning of High-Way is used as urgent repair material for bridge deck. The advantage of VESLMC is that compressive and flexural strength at 3 hours age are 4.5MPa and 21MPa respectively. It allows the traffic to open in 3 hours. But, this material has the problem which is early-age shrinkage cracking caused by water self-dissipation with rapid hydration reaction and water evaporation with body dry. Unfortunately, until now, the research about early-age shrinkage of VESLMC leaves something to be desired. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to present the early-age shrinkage of VESLMC respect to latex contents and shrinkage ratio to maximum length change that can help field engineers' skill. Latex contents of 0, 5, 10, 15, $20\%$ in standard of same workability in VESLMC are selected by experimental variables. After initial set, shrinkage value was measured with 10mm LVDT for 3 days. The results of maximum shrinkage ratio were 0.019, 0.017, 0.023, $0.027\%$ respectively.

Superabsorbent polymers(SAPs) are powdery material that absorb water several tens or hundreds of times its own mass. It has been reported that when SAPs are incorporated into a high strength cementitious material, the autogenous shrinkage of the material is reduced. Cross-linked sodium polyacrylate type SAPs are relatively safe for human body and low in production cost. In order to apply this type of SAPs to the admixture for total(plastic+autogenous+drying) shrinkage reduction of high strength mortar, the shrinkage behavior of mortar when an expansion agent(EA) and SAPs were mixed together was analyzed. As a result, it was found that the shrinkage was reduced when an EA 5% (mass % of cement) and SAPs 0.4% were mixed together than the mortar containing only an EA 10%. The shrinkage was further reduced when EA 10% and SAPs 0.4% were incorporated into mortar.

To fabricate a thick, porous yttria-stabilized zirconia without cracking and warping, a method for the simultaneous control of the porosity and shrinkage was designed. As a pore former, a potato starch was used. For the control of shrinkage the oxidation of Al metal particles was used. For the sintering of the above powder mixtures, a partial sintering technique was used at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 10 min in air. Upon adding the additives, high open porosity above 53% and a low shrinkage level were obtained. As a result cracking and warping of the sintered body were deterred. This outcome most likely resulted from the compensation of sintering shrinkage due to the volume expansion caused by oxidation of the Al metal particles during heat-treatment.
