This study is to specify the properties of solidification/stabilization of heavy metals in connection with looking over the hydration features of non-sintering cement using industrial by-products. In this study, we added Cr and Pb to non-sintering cement(NSC), ordinary portland cement (OPC), and Blast-furnace slag cement(BSC) to specify the solidification process. Heavy metal leaching test was carried out to evaluate solidification degree of various cement. Follow result, marking no higher than 0.7% of un-solidified ratio of BSC was the most predominant result when we mixed the materials with Cr. 5.8% for NSCI and 6.2% for NSC2. On the contrary, in case of adding Pb, NSCl and NSC2 made better solidification results than those of OPC(below 0.2%) and BSC(below 0.05%), marking nearly 0%.

Recently, many experiments using industrial by-products have been going on in Korea and abroad. Most of the studies on blast furnace slag and fly ash have been conducted, and the blast furnace slag based two and three component experiments have been conducted in many places. Therefore, this study is an additional study of research using polysilicon sludge and paper ash, which is a study using existing industrial by-products based on blast furnace slag, as strength properties of alkali activator according to kind and mixing ratio and to obtain basic data do.

Permeable polymer concrete can be applied to roads, sidewalks, river embankment, drain pipes, conduits, retaining walls, yards, parking lots, plazas, interlocking blocks, etc. This study is to explore a possibility of utilizing industrial by-products, a blast furnace slag and a fly ash, as fillers for permeable polymer concrete. Different mixing proportions are tried to find an optimum mixing proportion of permeable polymer concrete. The tests are carried out at 20$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$ and 60$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$ relative humidity. At 7 days of curing, compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strengths and water permeability ranged between 239~285kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 107~133kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 37~46kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 4.612~5.913$\ell$/$\textrm{cm}^2$/h, respectively. It is concluded that the blast furnace slag and fly ash can be used in permeable polymer concrete.

Recently, as the interest in environmental issues increases, the construction industry needs to recycle blast furnace slag, circulating fluidized bed Combustion fly ash, etc. to solve industrial by-products, and to develop artificial stone. In this study, the strength characteristics based on blast furnace slag according to the addition rate of alkali stimulant NaOH are investigated. The experimental results showed that the flexural and compressive strengths increased with the addition of alkali stimulants. Based on these results, it will be presented as a basic research data for the manufacture of artificial stone and will be tested later.

Recently, research is being conducted on geopolymers using industrial by-products as a cement substitute to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from the construction industry. Since geopolymers use industrial by-products, their performance varies depending on the type of alkali activator used, curing temperature, etc. Therefore, as part of a study to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from the construction industry, this study mixed blast furnace slag powder and ferronickel slag powder as cement substitutes, and compared and analyzed the fluidity and compressive strength of no-cement composites according to curing temperature.

This paper is concerned with the question of servicing warranties for repairable items. During the warranty period, each time an item fails the manufacturer has the obligation to restore the item to operational condition either by repairing the item or by replacing it with a new item. In this paper, we consider repair-replacement strategies based on the condition of the failed item. For products with phase-type lifetime distributions where the phases represent the condition of the item, we develop algorithms to determine the expected cost of servicing a warranty and use it in making the repair-replacement decision. Illustrative numerical examples are presented. We also propose a dynamic strategy by taking the expected remaining warranty cost into consideration.

Trade remedy is the system that additional duty or import quantity restriction would be imposed on the import products, in case that unfair imports damage domestic industry or even proper import products damage significantly domestic industry. The system is secured by the act of unfair trade practice investigation & industrial damage remedy, tariff act, WTO agreement. Anti-dumping duty act is the system that duties are assessed with the equal or less amount of the difference between normal transaction price and dumping price, in case that the product imported under dumping price causes or may cause damages in domestic industry, or the development of domestic industry should be delayed practically. Recently, the problems related with anti-dumping duty imposed as the part of the trade remedy occur frequently. It is necessary to discuss whether the anti-dumping duty act is practically trade remedy which does comply with GATT regulations and WTO agreements as the criteria of international law and is in line with the intent of domestic act in the suffered country, or it does return to protective trade or reduce the protection of consumer. On the basis of this discussion, it would be difficult to impose the antidumping duty on industrial products in order to protect domestic industry, when considering the expected free trade agreements of Korea-US, Korea-China and Korea-Japan. In order to survive under the current severe competition of world trade market, companies should raise the competitiveness by themselves without relying on the current trade acts to provide with a certain protection. This thesis should bring those attentions.

Purpose: In this paper, we developed a reliability index (RI) to efficiently compare reliability of products based on the design, development and production information such as reliability tests, quality, product life-cycle management. RI also can be applied to reliability prediction of a novel product as well as comparison evaluation among existing products. Methods: For evaluating RI, we proposed evaluation process which is composed of five steps. Target modules are selected based on warranty data and correlation analysis. Scores of selected target modules are calculated by scoring function. Finally, weights of RI model are determined by optimization method. Results: This paper presented an empirical analysis based on failure data of mobile devices. In this case study, we demonstrated that there is a direct correlation between evaluated RI and field failure probability of each product. Conclusion: We proposed the index for comprehensive and effective assessment of product reliability level. From the procedure of this study, we expected to be applied for reliability estimation of novel products and deduction of field failure-related factors.

For the precision measurement of industrial products, the location of holes inside the products, if they exist, are often selected as feature points. The measurement of hole location would be performed by vision and laser-vision sensor. However, the usage of those sensors is limited in case of big change of light intensity and reflective shiny surface of the products. In order to overcome the difficulties, we have developed a hole displacement measuring device using contact-type displacement sensors (LVDTs). The developed measurement device attached to a robot measures small displacement of a hole by allowing its X-Y movement due to the contact forces between the hole and its own circular cone. The developed device consists of three plates which are connected in series for its own function. The first plate is used for the attachment to an industrial robot with ball-bush joints and springs. The second and third plates allow X-Y direction as LM guides. The bottom of the third plate is designed that various circular cones can be easily attached according to the shape of the hole. The developed system was implemented for its effectiveness that its measurement accuracy is less than 0.05mm.

Activation products generated by photoneutrons in concrete shielding wall around electron linac were estimated for a high energy X-ray container cargo inspection system. Monte carlo code, MCNPX2.5.0 was used for reference system of 9MeV fixed type dual-direction container cargo inspection system installed at major harbors in Korea. Activation products inventory generated by photoneutron (n,$\gamma$) reaction are estimated, and then radiation dose rate is calculated from the results.
