Generally, laser machines with high generated power can be developed by means of enhancing their mean power, since the enhancement of mean power exerts an influence on peripheral parameters and machining performance. In this research, we evaluate the various machining properties by the use of two machines which bear different mean power each other, so that we may study various effects of the enhancement of mean power. As a result, when the mean power comes to be enhanced to 75%, we obtain the increase of output energy up to 69% and of peak power more than 95%, and also obtain almost twice of the cutting speed. Moreover we find the fact that if the test pieces have enough thickness in contrast with output energy, the pulse frequency moves toward the frequency bandwidth which takes proportion to the cutting speed mas well as to the amount of material removal per unit time. In addition it is finally obtained that the laser machine with high output power yields small taper degrees at kerf parts, while it has large cutting widiths and dross lengths.

굴을 까는 작업은 굴의 껍질 에 붙어있는 근육질과 굴 껍질에 붙어있는 hinge를 절단하는 작업을 필요로 한다. 본 논문은 굴을 까는 자동화기계를 개발하기 위한 하나의 단계로서 굴의 hinge 의 위치를 판단하는 computer vision system 의 image processing software (영상처리)개발에 대하여 중점을 두었다. 본 실험에 사용한 굴들은 computer vision system이 굴의 바깥쪽 hinge 표면을 감지할 수 있도록 굴을 물로 씻은 후 굴 껍질의 hinge 부분을 약간 절단하였다. computer vision system은 color video camera를 이용하여 굴의 절단된 hinge표면의 영상을 잡은 후 image processing software를 이용하여 굴의 hinge 위치를 감지하였다. 본 논문에 사용한 computer vision software 는 일반 상용화된 software 와 굴의 hinge 위치를 알아내기 위해 저자가 연구 개발한 software 로 구성하였다. Image 내의 굴의 hinge와 그 밖의 다른 물질을 구별하기 위하여 본 논문의 software 는 4개의 변수 (circularity , Rectangularity, Aspect-ratio , Euclidian Distance)를 이용하였다. 또한 image 내의 굴의 hinge 위치를 쉽고 효과적으로 파악하기 위하여 몇 가지 영상처리, 즉, shrink-expand, thresholding 외의 다른 방법들을 이용하였다.

Underwater cutting has a different mechanism than dry cutting, and there are more restrictions than benefits. Due to these constraints, research and development of underwater cutting has been very limited. At present, reactor dismantling is emerging as an important task worldwide, and reactor pressure containers, a key part of the reactor, are decommissioned based on underwater cutting. Reactor pressure containers are high-level radioactive waste, which is one of the main goals of today, such as to bridge the gap between environmental, safety, and cutting performance; hence, a process suitable for cutting should be applied. Therefore, many studies are being conducted on underwater cutting in connection with the dismantling of nuclear reactors in various areas in order to find appropriate processes. This paper first introduces the core technology of underwater cutting processes and discusses various processes. The emphasis is then placed on the adequacy of the reactor dismantling application. More specifically, we examine the suitability for the mechanical and thermal cutting processes, respectively, to find a solution suitable for dismantling a reactor. We discuss how each solution can sufficiently perform the specified functions at each stage of reactor dismantling and suggest that these processes can perform all of the work of underwater cutting.

This paper introduces a innovative diamond wire saw cutting technology and its experimental verification that can be utilized for cutting heavy structures. While conventional diamond wire saw cutting technologies such as water cooled cutting method and dry cutting method cause severe environmental problems due to generating massive concrete sludge or dust scattering, the proposed method can eliminate those problems considerably. Through extensive experiments using heavy structure test bed and real bridge pier structure, comprehensive analysis and comparative evaluation about various cutting methods were performed. As a result, the innovative diamond wire saw cutting method could achieve a similar cutting and cooling performance to the water cooled cutting method without generating concrete sludge and it showed an improved cutting and cooling performance to the dry cutting method without dust scattering. Consequently it is confirmed that the suggested cutting technology can be a promising environment-friendly alternative in the field of heavy structure dismantling.

한국에 지중배전케이블이 설치된 지 30년이 넘고 현재 지중화율은 12% 가량 되고 있다. 지중화율이 점차 높아지는 추세에서 기존의 매설된 케이블이나 사고 케이블에 대한 교체로 철거케이블이 발생하는 빈도가 높아져 이를 쉽게 철거할 수 있는 방안이 필요하여 철거용 지중케이블 자동절단기 개발을 하기에 이르렀다. 케이블철거 작업이 현재까지는 대부분 수동유압절단기를 통하여 이루어지다보니 작업의 경제성이 상당히 낮고 안전상의 문제가 대두되어 관로내 케이블을 차량의 유압을 이용하여 자동 인출, 자동 절단할 수 있는 기기를 개발하기에 이르렀다. 자동절단기를 사용함으로써 기존 $4{\sim}5$명이 소요되는 작업이 $1{\sim}2$명의 인력으로도 작업할 수 있고 작업시간도 대폭 단축되어 경제성이 크게 향상되었다. 아울러 사람이 절단작업을 수행하다보니 안전성의 문제가 염려시 되었는 데 철단작업을 기계가 대행함으로써 작업의 안전이 보장되었다. 이와 같이 케이블 자동절단기는 경제성은 물론 안전성을 확보함으로써 케이블 철거작업의 품질개선에 큰 역할을 담당할 것이다.

In this paper we propose a mixed effects least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) for the censored data which are observed from different groups. We use weights by which the randomly right censoring is taken into account in the nonlinear regression. The weights are formed with Kaplan-Meier estimates of censoring distribution. In the proposed model a random effects term representing inter-group variation is included. Furthermore generalized cross validation function is proposed for the selection of the optimal values of hyper-parameters. Experimental results are then presented which indicate the performance of the proposed LS-SVM by comparing with a standard LS-SVM for the censored data.

The cutting tests of high tensile steel plate(AH36) were carried out using CNC plasma arc cutting machine. Both top and bottom width of kerf and the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface are measured under various cutting conditions such as cutting speed, steel plate thickness, etc. In the CNC plasma arc cutting, the surface roughness decreases as cutting speed increases. The hardness is high up to 4mm depth from the cutting surface. In the cutting speed 1300~2100mm/min, the ratio of proper kerf width(Wt/Wb) is around 2.6. Through the series the series of experiments, the satisfactory cutting conditions of high tensile steel plate were found.

유압동력사용 전제하에, 기계식탈피복을 고려하지 않을 때는 전단방식이 가장 유리함을 알 수 있다. 절단방식은 전단방식에 비해서 낮은 생산성이 단점이나, 높은 원형도의 연료봉 절단면이 요구되거나, 비산에 의한 칩 분리, 쿨링(cooling) 장치를 보완하면 절단방식이 유리하다. 또한 수평식 슬릿장치는 커팅 블레이드의 낮은 내구성으로 생산성이 낮은 것이 단점이나 내구성이 강한 공구를 사용하여 처리 속도를 향상한다는 전제에서 실험적 검증의 확보, 그리고 별도의 복잡한 펠릿/헐 분리장치를 보완하면 수평식 슬릿 방식이 유리하다.
