Abstract: onic Polymer Metal Composites (IPMC) is a new kind of electro-active smart material that has many advantages including bending actuation, large displacement, low weight, low driven voltage, low power consumption, flexibility etc. The mechanical characteristic of IPMC is related to ionic polymer membrane, such as thickness, roughening, cation type and so on. In this paper, the actuation principle of IPMC and fabrication technique of Nafion^TM membrane is presented. The performance of IPMC with Nafion membrane pre-treatment, different cation type and thickness are investigated. Experiment results showed that the fabrication process of ionic polymer membrane Nafion change can improve the performance of IPMC effectively.

Abstract: Base on a practical project, the site-test Research on s Capacity of Bonding Interface Between New and Old Concrete was carried out with three different disposal ways, which is Roughening ,slotting and planting bar. The test process and phenomenon were described, The conclusion is that Planting bar is a more effective way to improve the bearing capacity between the new and old concrete surface.

Abstract: The kinetic and structural behavior of symmetrical <100> tilt grain boundaries with rotation angles 8.4°, 12.0°, 14.3° and 16.0° were investigated in-situ in a hot stage SEM in the temperature range between 380°C and 640°C. The results revealed that depending on the rotation angle the boundary either remained straight, became faceted or curved under the driving force provided by the boundary surface tension during high temperature annealing. The transition “facetedcurved boundary” was also found to depend on temperature. The observed behavior is attributed to the anisotropy of grain boundary energy with respect to boundary inclination.
