The superplastic forming/diffusion bonding process has been developed to fabricate a core frame structure with joint nodes out of tubes, for the development of a titanium high performance bicycle. The hydroforming process has been applied for bulging of a tube in the superplastic condition before, and during the diffusion bonding process. In this experiment, a commercial Ti-3Al-2.5V tube was selected as raw material for the study. The forming experiment has been performed using a servo-hydraulic press with a capacity of 200 ton. Next, nitrogen gas was used to acquire necessary pressure for the bulging and bonding of the tubes to fabricate the joint nodes. The pertinent processing temperature was $870^{\circ}C$ for the superplastic hydroforming/diffusion bonding (SHF/DB) process, using the Ti-3Al-2.5V tube. The bonding quality and the progress of bulging and diffusion bonding have been observed by the investigation of the joining interfaces at the cross section of the joint structure. The control of the nitrogen pressure throughout the SHF/DB process, was an important factor to avoid any significant defects in the joint structure. The whole progress stage of the diffusion bonding could be observed at a joint interface. A core structure with 5 joint nodes to manufacture a titanium bicycle could be obtained in a SHF/DB process.

Recently, the demand on the Hanok have been increased with social change. However, Hanok has a major problem of a rising costs caused by hand-made process. So, performance comparison between hand-made process and pre-cut process was conducted to modularize the joints in Hanok. Douglas-fir was used to manufacture the structural size dovetail joints by hand-made and pre-cut precess. The bending strengths on joints with two process were evaluated. The average ultimate load of pre-cut joints was 1.5 times higher than that of hand-made joints. F-test results in both process showed a great relationships between ultimate load and tenon's size variation. The length and thickness of tenon showed a proportional relationship with the ultimate load, but the tenon width showed inverse proportion with the ultimate load. This results may be used as basic data for the joint modularization of Hanok.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics of semi-igid behavior of the steel tubular column to H-beam connection reinforced with exterior square-plate diaphragms and to check the main parameters that affect this behavior. Steel tube connections without interior diaphragm and/or complicated exterior diaphragm show the considerable flexibility due to out of-plane deformation of tube flange. For the exact analysis well-reflected the effect of this flexibility on the overall frame performance. it need to find out the moment-rotation curve function that well trace the result of experiment in the whole region and the function should be simply transformed into an adequate form for the nonlinear analysis program. After collecting several test data same to the connection type considered. we carried out FEM analysis using ANSYS for the assumed beam-to-column connection developed from the simple tension test and the results are compared with experimental values. Based on the parametric study. we proposed the moment-relation curve function and performed the multiple-regression analysis procedure for three parameters consisting of this function with the main geometric parameter of this connection type.

Recently, it is gradually raised necessity that thickness of thin film is measured accuracy and managed in industrial circles and medical world. Ultrasonic signal processing method is likely to become a very powerful method for NDE method of detection of microdefects and thickness measurement of thin film below the limit of ultrasonic distance resolution in the opaque materials, provides useful information that cannot be obtained by a conventional measuring system. In the present research. considering a thin film below the limit of ultrasonic distance resolution sandwiched between three substances as acoustical analysis model, demonstrated the usefulness of ultrasonic signal processing technique using information of ultrasonic frequency for NDE of measurements of thin film thickness. Accordingly, for the detection of delamination between the junction condition of boundary microdefect of thin film sandwiched between three substances the results from digital image processing.

We study complicated nonlinear interactions of two orthogonally polarized pulses with pulse-width of less than 100fsec in the all-optical phase-shift switches, which use soliton pulse-train and fiber-splicing for control pulse to obtain multi-collisional $\pi$-phase-shift and consider Raman response function. We investigate switching performance in various input parameters such as input pulse-width and birefringence of fiber, and find optimum initial conditions for good switching performance in such all-optical switches.

The PU-g-MWNTs/PU film was synthesized by simple blending method to fabricate composites which have excellent mechanical and electrical properties. PU-g-MWNTs based composite revealed much enhanced dispersity than pristine MWNTs composite because of interfacial interaction related with interfacial compatibility between polymer matrix and PU on the MWNTs surface. The electro-conductivity of composite was measured as a function of PU-g-MWNTs concentration. The results were correlated with percolation threshold theory. As a result, the critical concentration and exponent of electro-conductivity behavior was equal to 0.78 wt% and 0.945.

ZnO 나노선 구조는 나노선 구조를 통해 입사한 빛을 산란시켜 광흡수를 촉진시키고, 바닥 전극으로 바로 이어진 수직의 1차원 구조를 통해 전자가 빠르게 이동할 수 있으며, 넓은 표면적을 가지고 있는 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 오래전부터 광전소자에 이용되었다. 하지만 ZnO 물질 자체의 밴드갭 에너지가 3.2 eV로 비교적 큰 편이라 가시광 영역의 빛을 흡수, 이용하기 위해서는 작은 밴드갭을 가지는 광감응 물질이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 저온의 수열합성법을 통해 합성한 ZnO 나노선 구조 상에 Cd 계열의 무기물 양자점을 증착하여 이종구조를 형성하는 방법을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 양자점인 CdS와 CdSe는 벌크 밴드갭 에너지가 각각 2.3 eV, 1.7 eV로 가시광 영역의 빛을 흡수할 수 있으며, ZnO 나노선과 type-II 밴드구조를 가지기 때문에 전자-정공 분리 및 포집에 유리하다. 합성된 구조를 이용하여 photoelectrochemical 특성을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 양자점의 증착으로 광전류 생성이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 특히 ZnO 나노선 상에 CdS 양자점 증착 후 추가적으로 CdSe 양자점을 증착하여 다중접합 나노선 구조를 형성한 경우 광전류 생성이 가장 크게 향상된 결과를 확인하였다.

A thin-film multijunction thermal converter was fabricated through the process using 6 inch silicon wafer semiconductor process and bulk micromachining. Evanohm R alloy and chromel-constantan were used as a heater and thermocouple materials, respectively. The temperature coefficient of resistance of Evanohm R heater was about 75.12 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and the voltage sensitivity of the thermal converter indicated about 5.75 mV/mW in air. The transfer differences, measured by FRDC-DC method in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 10 kHz, showed the value under about 1.36 ppm, 0.83 ppm for the film thickness of 500, 200 nm, respectively. And in case of a 200 nm-thick thermal converter, the AC-DC transfer differences seems to be stabilized below the value of 1 ppm in the frequency range from 1 kHz to 500 kHz.
