研究室紹介
Professor Jae Hong Kim's research lab specializes in advanced materials for sustainable energy and construction technologies. The lab focuses on bioinspired nanomaterials for artificial photosynthesis, particularly using peptide-based nanostructures and functional polymers like polydopamine to enhance light harvesting and charge transfer. In parallel, the lab investigates innovative concrete technologies, especially self-consolidating concrete, to optimize workability, reduce formwork pressure, and improve construction efficiency through strategic use of mineral admixtures and rheological control. The integration of materials science with energy conversion and civil engineering applications defines the lab’s interdisciplinary approach.

15Owing to enhanced filling ability, self-consolidating concrete offers accelerated casting and superior quality control during construction. However, its high fluidity and high placement rate increase the lateral pressure on the formwork, necessitating an extensive supporting system to retain fresh mixtures in a desired shape. Current recommendations of formwork design for self-consolidating concrete adopt the concept of hydrostatic pressure, even though the measured pressure could be less than t
Large scale constructions needs to estimate a possibility for pumping concrete. In this paper, the state of the art on prediction of concrete pumping including analytical and experimental works is presented. The existing methods to measure the rheological properties of slip layer (or called lubricating layer) are first introduced. Second, based on the rheological properties of slip layer and parent concrete, models to predict concrete pumping (flow rate, pumping pressure, and pumpable distance)
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a recently developed, innovative construction material. With use of SCC no additional compacting is necessary due to its high filling ability; as a result, the labor cost of compacting is economical. However, SCC may require stronger formwork that can resist the higher lateral pressure induced as compared to that for ordinary concrete. This study shows the effects of limestone filler or fly ash replacement on the formwork pressure and workability retention of
Curing by CO2 is a way to utilize CO2 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Placing early-age cement paste in a CO2 chamber or pressure vessel accelerates its strength development. Cement carbonation is attributed to the quickened strength development, and CO2 uptake can be quantitatively evaluated by measuring CO2 gas pressure loss in the pressure vessel. A decrease in CO2 gas pressure is observed with all cement pastes and mortar samples regardless of the mix proportion and the casting method; o
Various factors influence the rheology of cementitious pastes, with the most important being the mixing protocol, mixture proportions, and mixture composition. This study investigated the influence of ground-granulated blast-furnace slag, on the rheological behavior of cementitious pastes. In tandem with the rheological measurements, fresh state microstructural measurements were conducted using three different techniques: A coupled stroboscope-rheometer, a coupled laser backscattering-rheometer,
