이 연구에서는 강섬유로 보강된 철근콘크리트에서의 부식 특성에 관한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저 강섬유의 보강콘크리트의 수송특성, 즉 공극률, 흡수성, 투과성 및 염소이온 확산성에 관한 실험을 수행하여 철근부식과 의 관계를 비교 평가 하였다. 강섬유의 보강으로 인해 약간의 압축강도 증가와 함께, 흡수성, 투과성 및 확산성에 관한 실험 결과에서도 콘크리트 내부로의 유해물질의 침투저항성이 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 철근부식과의 관계에서는 예상된 결과와는 다르게 강섬유의 혼입이 철근부식을 가속화 시키는 경향이 나타났다. 염화나트륨 용액이 침투하는 노출면에서는 강섬유의 부식팽창으로 인한 표면박리현상이 관찰되었으며, 철근부위 절단면에서는 철근 주변에 강섬유의 부식이 국부적으로 관찰 되었다. 고온 및 고농도의 염화물 환경에서의 건습 싸이클링이 노출표면에 가까운 공극에서 지속적으로 염분결정체의 증가와 더불어 내부공극에서의 강섬유의 부식으로 증가된 압력이 표면 박리를 일으킨 것으로 보인다. 결과적으로는 노출면 부근에서의 미세균열을 증가가 물, 염화이온 및 산소의 침투를 보강근으로의 가속화를 진행 시킨 것으로 판단이 된다. 이 연구에서는 강섬유로 보강된 철근콘크리트에서 철근부식에 영향을 주는 명확한 메커니즘은 충분히 규명이 되지 않았으며, 보다 명확한 관계를 이해하기 위해서는 부식과정에서 강섬유의 잠재적인 부식팽창에 관한 보다 상세한 실험적 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되어 진다.

Vapor Axial Deposition (VAD), one of optical fiber preform fabrication processes, is performed by deposition of submicron-size silica particles that are synthesized by combustion of raw chemical materials. In this study, flow field is assumed to be a forced uniform flow perpendicularly impinging on a rotating disk. Similarity solutions obtained in our previous study are utilized to solve the particle transport equation. The particles are approximated to be in a polydisperse state that satisfies a lognormal size distribution. A moment model is used in order to predict distributions of particle number density and size simultaneously. Deposition of the particles on the disk is examined considering convection, Brownian diffusion, thermophoresis, and coagulation with variations of the forced flow velocity and the disk rotating velocity. The deposition rate and the efficiency directly increase as the flow velocity increases, resulting from that the increase of the forced flow velocity causes thinner thermal and diffusion boundary layer thicknesses and thus causes the increase of thermophoretic drift and Brownian diffusion of the particles toward the disk. However, the increase of the disk rotating speed does not result in the direct increase of the deposition rate and the deposition efficiency. Slower flow velocity causes extension of the time scale for coagulation and thus yields larger mean particle size and its geometric standard deviation at the deposition surface. In the case of coagulation starting farther from the deposition surface, coagulation effects increases, resulting in the increase of the particle size and the decrease of the deposition rate at the surface.

This study analysed the transport properties of bladder mucosa known as the typical system of 'tight epithelia' by using TEM observation with both rapid freeze-fracture electron microscopy and thin-section method and mainly analysed the cellular characteristics of turtle bladder epithelial cells. The bladder epithelium, like other tight epithelia, consists of a heterogenous population of cells. The majority of the mucosal cells are the granular cells and may function primarily in the process of active $Na^+$ reabsorption in turtle bladder. The remaining two types of cells are rich in mitochondria and is believed to be res-ponsible for a single major transport system, namely, $H^+$ transport by A-type of cell and urinary $HCO_{3}^-$ secretion by B-type of cell. As viewed in freeze-fracture electron micrograph, the tight junctions form a continuous tight seal around the epithelial cells, thus restricting diffusion in tight epithelia. In addition, the apical surface membranes have a population of rod-shaped intramembranous particles (IMPs). It is believed that these IMPs probably represent the components of the proton pump. However, it is likely that these characteristics of the apical transporter remain to be clarified in tight epithelial cells.

This paper describes a new simulation technique for advection-diffusion phenomena over the sea surface using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), capable of predicting oil dispersion from tankers. The LBM is used to solve the pollutant transport problem within the framework of the ocean environment. The sea space is represented by the lattices, where each lattice has the information on oil transportation. Since dispersed oils (i.e., oil droplets) at sea are transported by convection due to waves, buoyancy, and turbulent diffusion, the conservation of mass and many physical oil transport rules were used in the prediction model. Since the LBM is modeled using the uniform lattices and simple rules, it can be easily accelerated by the parallel mechanism, for example, GPU-accelerated method. The proposed model using the LBM is used to simulate a simple pollution event with the oil pollutants of 10,000 kL. The simulation results indicate that the LBM method accelerated with the GPU is 6 times faster than that without the GPU.

고효율 박막형 태양전지 제조를 위해 근접승화법에 의한 CdTe박막의 성장을 연구하였다. 내부압력의 변화, 기판과 소스 사이의 거리, 기판과 소스의 온도 등의 변수가 성장속도와 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 관찰했다. 내부압력의 변화에 따라 성장과정이 diffusion limited transport와 sublimation limited transport로 나뉘어지며, 이 두가지 성장방식의 분기점은 기체분자의 평균자유행정거리에 의해 결정되었다. 소스의 형태에 따라서 박막의 성장속도와 미세구조는 큰 차이를 보였으며, 실험을 통해 이러한 차이가 증발표면의 온도강하에 의한 현상임을 규명하였다. 기판과 소스사이의 간격에 따른 성장속도를 해석하기 위해 일방향열해석을 통해 기판과 소스표면의 온도를 계산하였다. X선 회절분석과 표면형상의 관찰을 통해 성장속도가 박막의 미세구조에 영향을 줌을 알았다. 기판의 온도가 증가하면서 박막성장시 (111)로의 우선성장방위가 관찰되었지만 고온이 되면서 다시 random orientation의 경향을 나타냈다.

A Plankton ecosystem model was developed to investigate effects of hydrodynamic processes including advection and diffusion on size-structured phytoplankton dynamics in the mesohaline zone of the York River estuarine system, Virginia, USA. The model included 12 state variables representing the distribution of carbon and nutrients in the surface mixed layer. Groupings of autotrophs and heterotrophs were based on cell site and ecological hierarchy Forcing functions included incident radiation, temperature, wind stress, mean How and tide which includes advective transport and turbulent mixing. The ecosystem model was developed in FORTRAN using differential equations that were solved using the 4th order Runge-Kutta technique. The model showed that microphytoplankton blooms during winter-spring resulted from a combination of vertical advection and diffusion of phytoplankton cells rather than in-situ production in the lower York River estuary.

The structure of pore network of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) in PEMFCs plays a critical role in determining the transport phenomena of reaction gas as well as generated water. In addition, the interactive characteristics between water and surface of pore are no less important than the structural characteristics of pore network. In this study, porometric investigation is conducted for two kinds of GDL using method of standard porosimetry which enable to distinguish hydrophobic pores from hydrophilic pores of GDLs. The porosity of TGPH-120 decreases by 6% by adding 30 wt.% of PTFE, but the porosity of hydrophilic pores decreases by 12%. The relation of $p_c-S_{nw}$ varies with the addition of PTFE, especially at low $p_c$.

Dye sensitized solar cells (DSC) are promising devices for inexpensive, nontoxic, transparent, and large-scale solar energy conversion. Generally thick $TiO_2$ nanoporous films act as efficient photoanodes with their large surface area for absorbing light. However, electron transport through nanoparticle networks causes the slowdown and the loss of electron transport because of a number of interparticle boundaries inside the conduction path. We have studied DSCs with precisely dimension-controlled $TiO_2$ nanotubes array as photoanode. $TiO_2$ nanotubes array is prepared by template-directed fabrication method with atomic layer deposition. Well-ordered nanotubes array provides not only large surface area for light absorbing but also direct pathway for electrons with minimalized grain boundaries. Large enlongated anatase grains in the nanotubes could enhance the conductivity of electrons, but also suppress the recombination with holes through defect sites during diffusion into the electrode. To study the effect of grain boundaries, we fabricated two kinds of nanotubes which have different grain sizes by controlling deposition conditions. And we studied electron conduction through two kinds of nanotubes with different grain structures. The solar cell performance was studied as a function of thickness and grain structures. And overall solar-to-electric energy conversion efficiencies of up to 7% were obtained.

Numerical analysis was conducted to characterize the gas flow field and particle deposition on a horizontal freestanding semiconductor wafer under the laminar flow field at vacuum environment. In order to calculate the properties of gas, the gas was assumed to obey the ideal gas law. The particle transport mechanisms considered were convection, Brownian diffusion and gravitational settling. The averaged particle deposition velocities and their radial distributions fnr the upper surface of the wafer were calculated from the particle concentration equation in an Eulerian frame of reference for system pressures of 1 mbar~1 atm and particle sizes of 2nm~10$^4$ nm(10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). It was observed that as the system pressure decreases, the boundary layer of gas flow becomes thicker and the deposition velocities are increased over the whole range of particle size. One thing to be noted here is that the deposition velocities are increased in the diffusion dominant particle size range with decreasing system pressure, whereas the thickness of the boundary layer is larger. This contradiction is attributed to the increase of particle mechanical mobility and the consequent increase of Brownian diffusion with decreasing the system pressure. The present numerical results showed good agreement with the results of the approximate model and the available experimental data.
