Among the parts assembled in the gas receiver of a marine engine, the titanium alloy stainless steel (STS 316Ti) wire mesh serving as a filter was broken, and the related part, the turbine fan of the turbocharger, was damaged. In this study, a sample of the grid wire mesh was collected and the cause of breakage was analyzed, and a method of minimizing the dent mark caused by the mold during wire forming, which is one of the most direct causes, was studied. In addition, the optimum mold shape was realized through FEM simulation, and the wire wave molding machine capable of controlling the speed was improved by supplementing the problems of the existing wire wave molding machine, thereby improving durability with minimal dent marks.

The purpose of this study was to develop an efficient process in the design and construction of a 1:5 scale 10-story R.C. apartment building model for an earthquake simulation test. The reduction ratio of the specimen was determined by the size ($5m{\times}5m$) and pay load (600kN) of the available shaking table and the availability of model reinforcements. For efficiency and quality control of the reinforcement work, prefabrication was used. Construction was conducted in two steps, the wall in one step, and another step for the slab, because it was impossible to remove the formwork of a wall if the walls and slabs in a story were constructed in one step. The slip form construction method was used repetitively for walls. The formwork of a wall was made with veneer and acryl plate on each side, so it was possible to check the quality of the concrete placing. To construct this model, it took roughly six months with five full-time research assistants, for a total of 602 man days of labor in construction.
