A study has been made to investigate the effects of hot isostatic pressing(HIPing) on the microstructure and high temperature fatigue lives of the IN738LC, Ni-base superalloy used in turbine blades, with emphasis on the elimination of casting microporosity and fatigue damage through HIP treatments. Microstructure was observed using OM, SEM and the fatigue life was investigated with rotate bending fatigue tester. The results show that the fatigue lives of properly HIP-processed specimens could be extended be extended by a factor of about sixty. In contrast, no comparable life improvement was achieved with heat treatment only. The repetitive HIP treatment was shown to be very effective as a means of rejuvenating the fatigue life of intentionally fatigue-damaged IN738LC by restoration of the initial alloy microstructure and additional removal of fine casting defects which remained in the HIP-processed material.

Development of flexible electronic devices has primarily focused on printing technology using organic materials. However, organic-based flexible electronics have several disadvantages, including low electrical performance and long-term reliability. Therefore, we fabricated nano- and micro-thick silicon film attached to the polymer substrate using transfer printing technology to investigate the feasibility of silicon-based flexible electronic devices with high performance and high flexibility. Flexibility of the fabricated samples was investigated using bending and stretching tests. The failure bending radius of the 200 nm-thick silicon film attached on a PI substrate was 4.5 mm, and the failure stretching strain was 1.8%. The failure bending radius of the micro-thick silicon film attached on a FPCB was 2 mm, and the failure strain was 3.5%, which showed superior flexibility compared with conventional silicon material. Improved flexibility was attributed to a buffering effect of the adhesive between the silicon film and the substrate. The superior flexibility of the thin silicon film demonstrates the possibility for flexible electronic devices with high performance.

In this work, a smart skin of multi-layer structure is designed and manufactured. Through the compression test, the characteristic of smart skin behavior was examined. We have predicted stress of each layer and the first failed layer of the smart skin structure by using MSC/NASTRAN. The finite element model was verified by comparing measured data from the compression test and result from the geometrically linear/non-linear analysis. The finite element model was used for obtaining design data from the parametric study. It was confirmed that shear moduli of honeycomb core affect the buckling load of smart skin where shear deformation was considerable.

A fuel specific detonation wave in a pipe propagates with a predictable wave velocity. This internal detonation wave speed determines the level of flexural wave excitation of pipes and the possibility of resonant response leading to a large displacement. In this paper, we present particular solutions of displacements and the resonance conditions for internally loaded pipe structures. These analytical results are compared to numerical simulations obtained using a hydrocode(multi-material blast wave analysis tool). We expect to identify potential explosion hazards in the general power industries.

DQM(differential quadrature method) is applied to computation of eigenvalues of the equations of motion governing the free in-plane vibration fur circular curved beams including both rotatory inertia and shear deformation. Fundamental frequencies are calculated for the members with clamped-clamped end conditions and various opening angles. The results are compared with numerical solutions by other methods for cases in which they are available. The differential quadrature method gives good accuracy even when only a limited number of grid points is used.

A semi-monocoque truncated cone structure, which is a main structure for the payload adapter of KSLV-I, was designed. Static test was performed to confirm the reliability of the cone structure under the design loads. Strains and displacements are measured during four load cases; the compressive axial, pure bending, pure shear, and combined loading conditions. The results showed that the cone structure satisfies the design requirements. An equivalent axial load was applied to the cone structure so that the global buckling of the cone structure occurred. The measured buckling load was compared with the predicted one by finite element method. The results show a good agreement.

자동차용 타이어는 고무와 고무의 보강 및 치수 안정용으로 사용되는 다량의 타이어코드로 이루어져 있다. 고무는 신축성이 크고 공기압 등에 의해 물성이 현저하게 저하하므로 신축을 적게 하고 물성의 저하를 막기 위해 보강용으로 사용되는 타이어코드는 타이어의 성능과 수명을 좌우하는 중요 요소가 된다[1]. 타이어코드용 PET섬유는 타이어 내에서 계속적인 신장, 굽힘 및 압축변형 등의 물리적 피로를 받고 있기 때문에 이들로 인하여 내피로성이 아주 중요한 의미를 가진다. 이러한 타이어코드용 섬유의 내피로성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 섬유의 미세구조인데 주로 결정영역보다는 비결정영역의 구조이고, 피로를 가했을 때 크랙의 성장으로 인해 내피로성이 감소하며 파단이 일어난다.

Cable-in-Conduit Conductors (CICC) have been used for fabrication of nuclear fusion magnets. Bending process is included in fabrication of superconducting magnet such as termination of conductors. Because of plastic deformation by bending process, there can be a large residual stress and change of shape in bent conductors. Void volume fraction in conductors is also changed by bending process. In this study, Commercial code was used to analyze the bending process at various bending curvature radius. The calculated residual stress of conductors bent at less than about 40cm curvature radius exceeded the allowable stress.

This paper describes effect of the bending strain of FRP tube for composite bushing with winding tension. The composite bushing can be formed, by adding silicone rubber sheds to a tube of composite materials. The FRP tube is internal insulating part of a composite bushing and is designed to ensure the mechanical characteristics. Generally the properties of FRP tube can be influenced by the winding angle, wall thickness and winding tension. As winding tension is increased glass contents was increased in the range of 70.4~76.6%. In the bending test, winding tension is increased residual displacement was decreased in the range of 14.0~12.2 mm.

In order to manufacture a doubly curved sheet metal effectively, a flexible incremental roll forming process has been developed by adopting the advantages of the incremental forming process and the roll forming process by combining inherent flexibility of the incremental forming process and continuous deformation of the roll forming process. The forming method has been further enhanced to form general quadrilateral blanks (including a square, a rectangle, a symmetrical trapezoid and an asymmetrical trapezoid, etc.) into doubly curved shapes by controlling the forming paths developed by various experiments.
