This study is to develop nonlinear analysis algorithm for transfer matrix method, which can be applied to continuous beam analysis. Gauss-Lobatto integral rule is adopted and the transfer matrix is derived from stiffness matrix. In the transfer matrix method, the system equation has a constant number of unknowns regardless of number of D.O.F. Therefore, the transfer matrix method has computational efficiencies not only in linear elastic analysis but also in nonlinear analysis. To verify the developed method, the analysis results of several examples are compared with commercial code in moment-curvature, moment-displacement and load-displacement relation.

A mixed powder of electrolyte and matrix support materials with a proper proportion was used for the fabrication of an electrolyte matrix sheet. The purpose of this study is to reduce the large change in MCFC cell thickness occurring in the initial start-up period when separate sheets of electrolyte and support are used. A focus was put on how small the carbonate particles could be made. The particle size of the carbonate powder was controlled by ball milling and the distribution was measured using a particle size analyser. The thickness change was reduced to 20% by this approach, which could be compared to 27% observed in a conventional cell. The thickness changes of electrolyte matrix have linear relation sizes of carbonate powders.

The present study was focused on the synthesis of a $TiB_2$ dispersed copper matrix composite material by the combination of the mechanical milling and plasma activated sintering processes. The $Cu/TiB_2$ mixed powder was prepared by the combination of the mechanical milling and reduction processes using the copper oxide and titanium diboride powder as the raw material. The synthesized $Cu/TiB_2$ mixed powder was sintered by the plasma activated sintering process. The hardness and electric conductivity of the sintered bodies were measured using micro vickers hardness and four probe method, respectively. The relative density of $Cu/TiB_2$ composite material sintered at $800^{\circ}C$ showed about 98% of theoretical density. The $Cu-1vol%TiB_2$ composite material has a hardness of about 130Hv and an electric conductivity of about 85% IACS. The hardness and electric conductivity of $Cu-3vol%TiB_2$ composite material were about 140 Hv and about 45% IACS, respectively.

Conductive metal matrix composite(MMC) material of 30% silicon carbide particulated based on aluminum matrix was machined by die sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) process according to different current and duty factor for reverse polarity of electrode. Material removal rate(MRR) was examined by process under various operation conditions. The surface morphology was evaluated by surface roughness parameter and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) research. The MRR was suddenly increased over 11 ampere of current, and it was slightly changed over 0.3 of duty factor. The maximum surface roughness of EDMed surface was affected by the duty factor. The SEM photograghs of EDMed surface showed wide recast distribution region of melting materials as increased of current and duty factor.

This study was designed to investigate the marginal accuracy of resin temporary crown with different matrix in indirect technique. Matrices were made from irreversible hydrocolloid impression material, putty type of vinyl polysiloxane silicone rubber and vacuum formed plastic sheet. The marginal discrepancies of the temporary crowns were measured using a measuring microscope. The obtained results were as follows 1. The marginal accuracy temporary crown using vinyl polysiloxane silicone rubber or vacuum formed plastic form was better than that of the temporary crown using irreversible hydrocolloid impression material. 2. The marginal accuracies of the temporary crown using the irreversible hydrocolloid impression material and putty type of the vinyl polysiloxane silicone rubber obtained the best results at the distal measuring point. 3. The vacuum formed plastic form was recorded a more acceptable marginal accuracy at the distal and mesial measuring points.

The effects of Ni contents in Cu base sintered friction material were studied. The contents of Ni were increased up to 9 wt% in the Cu-Sn matrix. The microstincture and tribological behavior of the friction material were examined. Pin on disk type of constant speed friction test rig were used to measure the friction and the wear rates. The results show that Ni addition increased the friction coefficients and decreased the wear rates of the materials. Relations between microhardness of the matrix and friction properties have been discussed. In addition optimum Ni content is recommended through the analysis of wear debris.

복합재는 높은 비강도와 비강성을 가지고 있어 자동차, 항공기 등 전반적인 산업분야에서 널리 사용되는 재료이다. 우주선의 노즐 부분과 같이 높은 온도뿐만 아니라 높은 압력이 작용하는 환경에서 사용하기 위한 재료로 복합재가 필요하다. 복합재의 물성치를 아는 것은 매우 중요한데 모재(matrix)와 강화섬유(fiber) 각각의 물성치를 수치적으로 대입해 얻는 결과는 실험값과의 오차가 커 예측하는데 있어 더 정확한 방법이 필요할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 이용한 EDISON용 CASADsolver 프로그램을 활용해 분석하였다. Matrix와 fiber의 물성치를 대입해 복합재의 물성치를 구해 실험으로 측정된 물성치, 경험식으로 계산된 물성치와 비교를 하였다.

A finite element program using degenerated shell element was developed to solve the geometric, material and combined nonlinear behaviors of composite laminated plates. The total Lagrangian method was implemented for geometric nonlinear analysis. The material nonlinear behavior was analyzed by considering the matrix degradation due to the progressive failure in the matrix and matrix-fiber interface after initial failure. The results of the geometric nonlinear analyses showed good agreements with the other exact and numerical solutions. The results of the combined nonlinear analyses considered both geometric and material nonlinear behaviors were compared to the experiments in which a concentrated force was applied to the center of the square laminated plate with clamped four edges.

Fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC) is a composite material where small fibers made from steel or polypropylene or similar material are embedded into concrete matrix. In a material model each constituent should be adequately described, especially the interface between the matrix and fibers that is determined with the 'bond-slip' law. 'Bond-slip' law describes relation between the force in a fiber and its displacement. Bond-slip relation is usually obtained from tension laboratory experiments where a fiber is pulled out from a matrix (concrete) block. However, theoretically bond-slip relation could be determined from bending experiments since in bending the fibers in FRC get pulled-out from the concrete matrix. We have performed specially designed laboratory experiments of three-point beam bending with an intention of using experimental data for determination of material parameters. In addition, we have formulated simple layered model for description of the behavior of beams in the three-point bending test. It is not possible to use this 'forward' beam model for extraction of material parameters so an inverse model has been devised. This model is a basis for formulation of an inverse model that could be used for parameter extraction from laboratory tests. The key assumption in the developed inverse solution procedure is that some values in the formulation are known and comprised in the experimental data. The procedure includes measured data and its derivative, the formulation is nonlinear and solution is obtained from an iterative procedure. The proposed method is numerically validated in the example at the end of the paper and it is demonstrated that material parameters could be successfully recovered from measured data.

The biologic principle of guided bone regeneration(GBR) has been studied extensively in hopes of regenerating alveolar bone. Various materials have been utilized as regenerative membranes and grafting materials in implant surgery. To improve the ability of membranes, several types of membrane have been developed. Various materials have been utilized as regenerative membranes; however, all materials have disadvantages, and the ideal membrane material is yet to be identified. In these cases, a homologous gelatinized bone matrix(GBM) were used as a regenerative material in conjunction with the placement of endosseous root implants. 22 patients participated in this study, and 42 implants were inserted. The result of 1st operative surgery was uneventful, inflammatory reaction and dehiscences were not observed except for only one case. After the final protheses, all implants were functioning successfully. The major advantages in the use of GBMs for guided bone regeneration are of very wide application such as membrane and graft material, and that a second procedure to remove the material is not necessary, and the GBMs are accepted by the surrounding tissues without complications. The purpose of this study was to observe the usefulness of GBMs in dental implant surgery.
