Graphene is a perfectly two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystal which consists of sp2 bonded carbon atoms like a honeycomb lattice. With its unique structure, graphene provides outstanding electrical, mechanical, and optical properties, thus enabling wide variety of applications including a strong potential to extend the technology beyond the conventional Si based electronic materials. Currently, the widespread application for electrostatically switchable devices is limited by its characteristic of zero-energy gap and complex process in its synthesis. Several groups have investigated nanoribbon, strained, or nanomeshed graphenes to induce a band gap. Among various techniques to synthesize graphene, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is suited to make relatively large scale growth of graphene layers. Direct growth of graphene on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using CVD has gained much attention as the atomically smooth surface, relatively small lattice mismatch (~1.7％) of h-BN provides good quality graphene with high mobility. In addition, induced band gap of graphene on h-BN has been demonstrated to a meaningful value about ~0.5 eV.[1] In this paper, we report the synthesis of grpahene / h-BN bilayer in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process by controlling the gas flux ratio and deposition rate with temperature. The h-BN (99.99％) substrate, pure Ar as carrier gas, and $CH_4$ are used to grow graphene. The number of graphene layer grown on the h-BN tends to be proportional to growth time and $CH_4$ gas flow rate. Epitaxially grown graphene on h-BN are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy.

This paper, presents the dynamic and stability analysis of the simply supported single walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNT) reinforced concrete beam on elastic-foundation using an integral first-order shear deformation beam theory. The condition of the zero shear-stress on the free surfaces of the beam is ensured by the introduction of the shear correction factors. The SWCNT reinforcement is considered to be uniform and variable according to the X, O and V forms through the thickness of the concrete beam. The effective properties of the reinforced concrete beam are calculated by employing the rule of mixture. The analytical solutions of the buckling and free vibrational behaviors are derived via Hamilton's principle and Navier method. The analytical results of the critical buckling loads and frequency parameters of the SWCNT-RC beam are presented in the form of explicit tables and graphs. Also the diverse parameters influencing the dynamic and stability behaviors of the reinforced concrete beam are discussed in detail.

In the construction of an extension field, there is a connection between the polynomial multiplication method and the degree of polynomial. The existing methods, KO and MSK methods, efficiently reduce the complexity of coefficient-multiplication. However, when we construct the multiplication of an extension field using KO and MSK methods, the polynomials are padded with necessary number of zero coefficients in general. In this paper, we propose basic properties of KO and MSK methods and algorithm that can reduce coefficient-multiplications. The proposed algorithm is more reducible than the original KO and MSK methods. This characteristic makes the employment of this multiplier particularly suitable for applications characterized by specific space constrains, such as those based on smart cards, token hardware, mobile phone or other devices.

Changes in pH, EC and water soluble cation and anion of the bed material in the rearing box of earthworms were investigated while sewage sludges or night soil sludge were cumulatively supplied to the 15 grams of initial earthworm population in the rearing box. Initial biochemical properties of sludges such as pH, EC, V.S. and water content were at the edible levels for earthworm. However, as the cumulative amount of sludges supplied to the earthworms were increased, pH of bed material in the rearing box was lowered and EC was increased, which meant that salt contents of bed material in the rearing box had been accumulated. Water soluble cations and anions were also accumulated in the bed material of the rearing box. Accumulation rates of ${NO_3}^-$ were especially prominent. Consequently, feeding rates of earthworm populations were reduced to nearly zero and earthworm populations finally died.

이동통신 시스템의 소형화 경량화 다기능화 추세에 따라 세라믹 모듈의 정밀도 및 집적도가 중요한 요소로 부각되고 있다. 이러한 모듈의 고집적화 추세에 대응하기 위하여 세라믹 소성시 수축율 제어가 필수적인 요소로 부각되고 있으며, 이에 따라 X, Y축의 소성 수축율을 0에 근접하게 제어하는 무수축 소성 기술이 요구되고 있다. 선행연구를 통하여 $Al_2O_3$/Glass/$Al_2O_3$ 구조의 glass infiltration법에 의한 무수축 소성 기술 구현 가능성을 확인하였으나, 아직 해결해야 할 문제점들이 있다. glass가 $Al_2O_3$층으로 infiltration되는 과정에서 glass층이 de-lamination 되는 결함이 발견되었으며 이는 유전체 기판의 Q값을 낮추고 기판의 신뢰성에 악영향을 줄 수 있어 이에 대한 개선이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 $Al_2O_3$/Glass/$Al_2O_3$ 구조의 glass infiltration법에 의한 선행 실험에서 관찰된 기판 내부의 de-lamination 현상에 대한 원인을 규명하고 해결책을 제시하고자 하였다. glass 유동과 바인더 burn-out이 동시에 진행됨에 따라 기공이 생성되며 glass가 점성유동함에 따라 이 기공이 glass층으로 모이게 되어 de-lamination 현상이 발생하는 것으로 사료된다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 de-lamination층에 $Al_2O_3$의 tamping을 시도하여 glass층의 기공이 빠져 나갈 수 있는 channel 을 형성하고, 남아있는 기공을 $Al_2O_3$로 채우는 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이에 따라 기판의 밀도와 Quality factor 값이 향상되었으며 미세구조가 치밀한 무수축 기판을 제작할 수 있었다.

Load transfer efficiency (LTE) reflects the structural performance of doweled and undoweled joints of Jointed Concrete Pavement (JCP). A 3-dimensional (3-D) model of JCP was built using ABAQUS software in this study. Three concrete slabs were placed on bonded sublayers composed of a base and subgrade. Spring elements were used to connect the adjacent slabs at joints. Different spring constants were input to the model to simulate different joint stiffness of the concrete pavement. The LTE of the joint increased with an increase of the spring constant. The effects of material properties and geometric shape on the behavior of JCP were analyzed using different elastic modulus and thickness of the slab and base in the modeling. The results showed the elastic modulus of the subgrade affected the behavior of the slab and LTE more than that of the base and the thickness of the slab and base. The effects of a negative temperature gradient on the behavior of the slab and LTE were more than that of positive and zero temperature gradients. Joints with low stiffness were more sensitive to the temperature gradient of the slab.

This study analyzed the effects of changes in mixing factors of zero-cement mortar that only used recycled fine aggregates and fly-ash on quality of mortar, and the results are as follows. To describe the property of fresh mortar, as mix proportion and flow of mortar increased, W/B was highly selected and air content decreased. To describe compressive strength according to age as the property of hardened mortar, it was revealed that the strength did not strength until the 14 day, but strength of about 1 ~ 2 MPa strength during the 14 day through 28 day, and almost similar strength after 28 day. Also, compressive strength according to changes in mix proportion, flow and B/W was generally similar. Summarizing the above experimental results, in case of mortar that used recycled fine aggregates and fly-ash, it secured the strength for the use of landfill even though not for structural use. Especially, poor mix proved to be more useful than rich mix.

Although the importance of good conservation of historic sites including ancient royal tombs is well aware, still not much attention has been paid for the facilities and systems to preserve those historic sites, which includes precious artifacts as wall paints and carved works, etc. Even the general understanding about the environment of the underground space or tombs is not satisfactory. In the present study, vibration levels due to the operation of an HVAC system to maintain the desired indoor temperature and humidity are investigated experimentally. According to the measured data, the level of vibration inside the present model tomb with the indoor unit inside, showed order of magnitude less values than the Swiss Standards, but still higher than the value suggested by German standards, which is, zero. Further study will be pursued for cases including different ways of installation, because the vibration level depends not only on the system design, but also on the installation methods.

In this study mathematical properties of variational solution and solution of the boundary integral equation of the linear elasticity problem are studied. It is first reviewed that a variational solution for the three-dimensional linear elasticity problem exists in the Sobolev space [ $H^{1}$(.OMEGA.)]$^{3}$ and, then, it is shown that a unique solution of the boundary integral equation is identical to the variational solution in [ $H^{1}$(.OMEGA.)]$^{3}$. To represent the boundary integral equation, the Green's formula in the Sobolev space is utilized on the solution domain excluding a ball, with small radius .rho., centered at the point where the point load is applied. By letting .rho. tend to zero, it is shown that, for the linear elasticity problem, boundary integral equation is valid for the variational solution. From this fact, one can obtain a numerical approximatiion of the variational solution by the boundary element method even when the classical solution does not exist.exist.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of Baiksulgis made of imported rice(Thai and Chinese rice, harvested in 1998) and domestic rice(Chuchung byeo, harvested in 1998 and 1997). Moisture content, color value, yields of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction, texture and sensory properties of Baiksulgis were measured. Moisture contents of rice flour and Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 were highest and those of Thai rice were lowest among the samples. This tends were also seen during storage. Lightness and redness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice were lowest and yellowness of Baiksulgis made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 and Chinese rice were higher than those made of other rices. Yield of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction was highest in Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1998 and lowest in Baiksulgi made of Thai rice. And the value decreased less than half of initial value after 24 hour storage. Adhesiveness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was zero and cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess of that were very low. This results showed that Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was lack of chewy texture and this trend was more apparent as the storage time increased. In sensory tests, Baiksulgi made of Chinese rice had most yellowish color and that made of imported rice such as Chinese and Thai rice had more coarse texture than that made of domestic rices. off odor was lowest in Baiksulgi made or Korean rice harvested in 1997 and sweet taste was lowest in that made or Thai rice. Hardness adhesiveness, moistness and chewiness of Baiksulgi made of domestic rices were much higher than those made of impoted rices, and these results showed that Baiksulgi made of domestic rices had acceptable texture. Baiksulgi made of Thai rice showed the lowest acceptability due to lack of above textural characteristics and it was needed to add the material to modify the texture of that.
