Particle packing properties are important to develop high technology products in the field of cement and concrete. Two types of particle packing models for aggregates with sand and cement were introduced: the loose and the dense aggregate packing. Aggregate packing models with randomly generated sand and cement particles in the interstices of aggregates fit the Furnas model very well. Different aggregate models show different packing properties with the experimental results. Main reason for the difference with the experimental results is due to sand rearrangement in the loose aggregate packing model and to aggregate relaxation in the dense aggregate packing model. In the experimental situation, aggregates seem to be more disordered and have a relaxed packing structure in the dense packing, and sands seem to have a more rearranged packing structure in the loose packing model.

The effects of additional P-doping on the magnetic properties, thermal stability and cation distribution of Co-doped ${\gamma}-{Fe_2} {O_3}$have been investigated by means of magnetic annealing and measurements with vibration sample magnetometer and torque magnetometer. It is found that the P-doping promotes the coercivity and its magnetic-thermal stability, which may be attributed to increase of the cubic magneto-crystalline anisotropy constant, $K_1$ and the activation energy, E, for cation rearrangement, respectively. The cation distribution of P and Co-substituted iron oxide was calculated from the variation of the saturation magnetization with P-doping on the basis of the Neel model. It was found that the most of P ions in the iron oxides occupied the B-site of spinel lattice.

Alumina tapes, having various ratios of alumina to alumina＋binder＋plasticizer (a/(a＋o)) and binder to binder＋plasticizer(b/(b＋p)), were prepared by the tape casting method. The tapes were thermocompressed varying the thermocompression parameters such as temperature, pressure, and duration time. Among the parameters, the pressure was the most influential to the tape packing density. The packing density varied in two different ways depending on the a/(a＋o) ratio. For the tapes having low a/(a＋o) ratio, a saturation density was reached by applying very a low pressure of 1 MPa. For tapes with high a/(a＋o), on the contrary, the saturation density was obtained at a relatively high pressure. These different responses to the pressure are attributed to the fact that the rearrangement of alumina particles by the pressure becomes easy as an organic content in the tapes is high.

In this study, a transient liquid phase sintering (TLPS) process of Ag pastes mixed with a fusible metal alloy of Bi58Sn42 with the melting temperature of $138^{\circ}C$, was examined. After screen printing of the Ag pastes with and without Bi58Sn42 powders on polyimide (PI) substrates, the electrodes were heat-treated at different temperatures in the range between 150 and $300^{\circ}C$ for 60 min in air. Comparing the electrical conductivity of the Ag pastes with and without Bi58Sn42 alloy powder after the heat treatment, it was manifested that the low melting temperature alloy definitely played a major role in an increased conductivity when it is added into the Ag pastes by providing more electrical conduction paths between Ag particles. This can be explained by the fact that capillary force of the melts of Bi58Sn42 can contribute to the rearrangement of the Ag particles during the heat-treatment inducing better connectivity between the Ag particles.

Apolipoprotein (apo) C-III is a marker protein of triacylglycerol (TG)-rich lipoproteins and high-density lipoproteins (HDL), and has been proposed as a risk factor of coronary heart disease. To compare the physiologic role of reconstituted HDL (rHDL) with or without apoC-III, we synthesized rHDL with molar ratios of apoA-I:apoC-III of 1:0, 1:0.5, 1:1, and 1:2. Increasing the apoC-III content in rHDL produced smaller rHDL particles with a lower number of apoA-I molecules. Furthermore, increasing the molar ratio of apoC-III in rHDL enhanced the surfactant-like properties and the ability to lyse dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine. Furthermore, rHDL containing apoC-III was found to be more resistant to particle rearrangement in the presence of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) than rHDL that contained apoA-I alone. In addition, the lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activation ability was reduced as the apoC-III content of the rHDL increased; however, the CE transfer ability was not decreased by the increase of apoC-III. Finally, rHDL containing apoC-III aggravated the production of MDA in cell culture media, which led to increased cellular uptake of LDL. Thus, the addition of apoC-III to rHDL induced changes in the structural and functional properties of the rHDL, especially in particle size and rearrangement and LCAT activation. These alterations may lead to beneficial functions of HDL, which is involved in anti-atherogenic properties in the circulation.

본 논문에서는 알루미늄 분말의 치밀화 거동을 분석하기 위하여 다입자유한요소모델을 이용한 분말압축 해석방법을 제시하였다. 다입자유한요소모델을 이용하여 압축공정 동안 압축속도와 입자크기가 입자의 변형거동과 분말의 치밀화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 유한요소해석결과는 평균입도 20, $3{\mu}m$의 알루미늄 분말에 대한 일축압축시험을 통해 검증되었다. 압축시험은 만능재료시험기(MTS)를 이용하였으며 해석과 동일하게 5와 15, 30, 60mm/min 압축속도에 대해 수행되었다. 입자직경이 감소할수록 입자간 마찰이 증가하기 때문에 압출하중은 증가하였다. 압축속도가 감소할수록 증가된 입자의 회전모멘트는 입자간의 이동과 분말의 치밀화에 기여하여 최종 분말의 상대밀도를 증가시킨다.

Porous Cu with a dispersion of nanoscale $Al_2O_3$ particles is fabricated by freeze-drying $CuO-Al_2O_3$/camphene slurry and sintering. Camphene slurries with $CuO-Al_2O_3$ contents of 5 and 10 vol% are unidirectionally frozen at $-30^{\circ}C$, and pores are generated in the frozen specimens by camphene sublimation during air drying. The green bodies are sintered for 1 h at $700^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$ atmosphere. The sintered samples show large pores of $100{\mu}m$ in average size aligned parallel to the camphene growth direction. The internal walls of the large pores feature relatively small pores of ${\sim}10{\mu}m$ in size. The size of the large pores decreases with increasing $CuO-Al_2O_3$ content by the changing degree of powder rearrangement in the slurry. The size of the small pores decreases with increasing sintering temperature. Microstructural analysis reveals that 100-nm $Al_2O_3$ particles are homogeneously dispersed in the Cu matrix. These results suggest that a porous composite body with aligned large pores could be fabricated by a freeze-drying and $H_2$ reducing process.

SiC휘스커를 첨가한 알루미나 분말 기지 복합체의 치밀화에 미치는 상온 반복 압축의 영향을 조사하였다. 반복 압축 응력과 반복 횟수가 증가할수록, 또한 바이어스 압력이 낮을수록 복합체의 초기 성형 밀도가 증가하였으며 가압 및 제하 속도, 반복 속도는 분말의 미끄러짐과 재배열에 큰 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 상온 반복 압축으로 인한 SiC 휘스커의 파단은 거의 없었으며 휘스커의 배열 방향은 반복 압축 방향에 관계없이 고른 분포를 나타냄으로써 상온 반복 압축 성형이 SiC 휘스커를 첨가한 알루미나 분말 기지 복합체의 초기 성형 밀도를 높일 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

In order to increase the toughness of ZTA(zirconia toughened alumina) ceramics, the present study focused on rearrangement and densification of particles according to the particle size of the parent material. When rough alumina was used for production of ZTA, densification behavior was observed in the specimen sintered at a temperature over $1550^{\circ}C$. However, it was found that the densification behavior was occurred in the specimen sintered at $1450^{\circ}C$ when fine alumina powder was used. High relative density exceeding 98% was obtained when fine alumina powder was mixed with 15 wt% of 3Y-TZP and sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$. Also, a hardness of 1820.2 Hv was obtained when a specimen containing 10 wt% of 3Y-TZP was sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$. In the case of 3Y-TZP containing rough alumina powder that had been sintered the hardness value was around 1720.3 Hv. It was predicted that an improved toughening effect in ZTA could be achieved by using finer alumina powder as the parent material.

This study was conducted to propose the model that is able to predict long-term settlement of sands containing carbonates. We can observe that in addition to the initial elastic compression, a considerable additional compression occurs with long-term period in some sands. The compressibility of sands is significantly dependent on particle characteristics. Some sands have many pores and particularly has an angular shape. To predict of long-term settlement of these sands which contain carbonates, first of all a variety of tests which are to assess chemical, physical and compression characteristics of these sands were conducted. Second, in order to know settlement with time, the time parameter was determined by analyzing the measured data obtained from $\bigcirc\bigcirc$ area. The measured settlement of this area shows that in addition to the initial elastic compression, a considerable additional compression occurring with time. It was caused by the crushing, shattering, and rearrangement of particles, which were real phenomena in sandy soils under loading condition. Based on this case study, we proposed that a simple method is able to predict settlement with time of sandy soil containing carbonates.
