The marine pipelines laid in deep waters were evaluated to verify the resistance on the plastic collapse to heavy ambient external pressure due to hydrostatic pressure. In this study, the plastic collapse behavior of the marine pipe subjected to hydrostatic pressure was evaluated with the ovality and ratio of diameter to thickness in FE analyses. A parametric study was shown that the internal pressure increased the plastic collapse depth by increasing of the resistance to the plastic collapse. It was also shown that the collapse depth of the pipeline having a local ovality was deeper than that of the pipeline having a global ovality. Finally, the plastic collapse depth decreased when either the ratio of diameter to thickness or the ovality increased.

In this paper, we fabricated TCO (transparent conductive oxide) electrode on flexible substrate in order to study effects of electrical and optical properties according to Al-doped ZnO(AZO) film thickness. The thickness of film was from 100 nm to 500 nm and was controlled by changing deposition time. We used High Resolution X-ray Diffractometer (HR-XRD) to analyze crystal structure and UV-visible spectrophotometer to measure property of optical transmittance, respectively. The surface images are obtained by using ESEM (Environment Scanning Electron Microscopy). In this experiment, all the AZO films deposited on flexible substrate show high transmittance over 90% and especially in the films with 400 nm and 500 nm thickness, the resistivity ($4.5{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}-cm$) and optical bandgap energy (3.61 eV) are superior to the other films.

Amorphous FeBSiNb alloy ribbons having bulk glass forming ability and high saturation magnetic flux density were produced by single-roller melt spinning apparatus in the thickness range of 22∼102㎛. With the increase of thickness, the coercive force and squareness ratio decreased, while maximum permeability and AC permeability increased. However electrical resistivity was almost constant. Furthermore refined and complex magnetic domain structure was observed in thicker ribbons owing to the change in internal magnetic anisotropy. For the alloy with the thickness of 81㎛, small coercive force of 24 mOe and high effective permeability of 12,000 at 1㎑ were obtained, those are considered to be better comparing to the conventional soft magnetic amorphous alloys (∼20 ㎛). The good soft magnetic properties of the thick FeBSiNb amorphous alloys were attributed to the decrease in surface pinning effect during wall motion, appearance of perpendicular anisotropy and resulted domain refinement.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze affecting ratios of strength safety in carbon fiber layer thickness of a composite fuel tank for FEV vehicles. To investigate affecting ratios by FEM modeling, the equivalent von Mises stress has been computed on the aluminum liner and carbon fiber layers of composite fuel tanks in hoop and helical directions respectively. According to the FEM results, the affecting ratios of an aluminum liner on the equivalent stress are 77.5% in hoop direction, 18.11% in $70^{\circ}C$ winded helical direction and 4.39% in $12^{\circ}C$ winded helical direction. These trends on the strength safety of carbon fiber layers have been shown as those of an aluminum liner even though the layer thickness ratio of $12^{\circ}C$ inclined carbon fiber is very high of 42% compared with that of hoop layer thickness. Thus, the computed results show that the strength safety of a carbon fiber fuel tank is more influenced by the winding angle rather than the fiber thickness of carbon fiber layers.

In the current study, the relationships between abdominal adipose tissue depots and skinfold thickness, body circumference and composition, and blood lipids and pressure were investigated in adolescent obese man. Total abdominal adipose tissue (TAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) were correlated with skinfold thickness. Especially subscapular skinfold was highly correlated with TAT and SAT, and it was found that chest skinfold was the only predictor for estimating visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Body circumference and body composition were associated with TAT and SAT, not VAT, and correlation coefficient of waist circumference was highest. On the other hand, body fat mass was highly correlated with TAT and SAT than %body fat and fat free mass. It was also shown that blood triglyceride concentration and systolic blood pressure were the only predictor for estimating VAT and SAT respectively.

This work proposes an alternative pipe wall-thinning inspection method based on change of eigenfrequencies of shell vibration modes in wall-thinned pipes. It takes much time to detect wall-thinning of pipes using ultrasonic thickness gauge and only a limited number of pipes are under regular inspection. In a pipe with locally decreased thickness, stiffness varies along circumferential direction and natural frequencies of shell vibration modes of the pipe change or frequencies of same modes bifurcate into two different values. Therefore, one can monitor pipe wall-thinning by measuring change of natural frequencies or estimate wall-thinning shape qualitatively. The feasibility of the proposed method was studied by FE vibration analysis for wall-thinned pipes. Modal testing was also carried out for the pipes with artificial wall-thinned section to verify the working performance of the suggested technique.

The electro-mechanical characteristics were theoretically analyzed for the wideband ultrasonic transducer made of non-uniform thickness piezoelectric vibrator. This paper proposes a combination of exponential functions which describes the thickness variation along the length of the vibrator to derive the input admittance and power transfer function of the transducer. The bandwidth and the power transfer function of the transducer were investigated while the lateral shape of the vibrator changes. The results showed there is an optimum shape for the wideband characteristics of the transducer, and the bandwidth has increased up to over 100% as the ratio of minimum value of thickness to maximum value decreases. However, the power transfer function had a downward trend as the ratio of thickness decreases. Also we confirmed that even though the value of transfer function increases as the length of the piezoelectric vibrator increases, the shape providing wideband characteristics is very limited. It means that precision processing is required to manufacturing a wideband ultrasonic transducer with high efficiency.

금속 실리사이드 나노입자는 열적 및 화학적 안정성이 뛰어나고, 절연막내에 일함수 차이에 따라 깊은 양자 우물구조가 형성되어 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작할 수 있다. 그러나 단일 $SiO_2$ 절연막을 사용하였을 경우 저장된 전하의 정보 저장능력 및 쓰기/지우기 시간을 향상시키는 데 물리적 두께에 따른 제한이 따른다. 본 연구에서는 터널장벽 엔지니어링을 통하여 물리적인 두께는 단일 $SiO_2$ 보다는 두꺼우나 쓰기/지우기 동작을 위하여 인가되는 전기장에 의하여 상대적으로 전자가 느끼는 상대적인 터널 절연막 두께를 감소시키는 방법으로 동작속도를 향상 시킨 $SiO_2/Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ 및 $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ 터널 절연막을 사용한 금속 실리사이드 나노입자 비휘발성 메모리를 제조하였다. 제조방법은 우선 p-type 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 100 nm 두께로 증착된 Poly-Si 층을 형성 한 이후 소스와 드레인 영역을 리소그래피 방법으로 형성시켜 트랜지스터의 채널을 형성한 이후 그 상부에 $SiO_2/Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ (2 nm/ 2 nm/ 3 nm) 및 $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ (2 nm/ 3 nm/ 3 nm)를 화학적 증기 증착(chemical vapor deposition)방법으로 형성 시킨 이후, direct current magnetron sputtering 방법을 이용하여 2~5 nm 두께의 $WSi_2$ 및 $TiSi_2$ 박막을 증착하였으며, 나노입자 형성을 위하여 rapid thermal annealing(RTA) system을 이용하여 $800{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$에서 질소($N_2$) 분위기로 1~5분 동안 열처리를 하였다. 이후 radio frequency magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 $SiO_2$ control oxide layer를 30 nm로 증착한 후, RTA system을 이용하여 $900^{\circ}C$에서 30초 동안 $N_2$ 분위기에서 후 열처리를 하였다. 마지막으로 thermal evaporator system을 이용하여 Al 전극을 200 nm 증착한 이후 리소그래피와 식각 공정을 통하여 채널 폭/길이 $2{\sim}5{\mu}m$인 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 비휘발성 메모리 소자는 HP 4156A semiconductor parameter analyzer와 Agilent 81101A pulse generator를 이용하여 전기적 특성을 확인 하였으며, 측정 온도를 $25^{\circ}C$, $85^{\circ}C$, $125^{\circ}C$로 변화시켜가며 제작된 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 열적 안정성에 관하여 연구하였다.

DLC 박막을 RF 플라즈마 화학증착법(PECVD)을 이용하여 CH4와 CO2기체로부터 합성하였다. 증착압력, CH4와 CO2가스의 조성비, 바이어스 전압(-VB) 등의 증착조건 변화에 따른 증착속도는 증착층의 두께를 알파스텝으로 측정하여 결정하였으며, 박막의 구조 변화에 따른 증착속도는 증착층의 두께를 알파스텝으로 측정하여 결정하였으며, 박막의 구조 변화는 FTIR 분광분석을 이용하여 분석을 행하였다. 이 연구로부터 얻은 실험 결과는 다음과 같다: 1) 증착속도는 증착압력 및 바이어스 전압의 증가에 따라 증가한다. 2)바이어스 전압 300V이상에서, CO2량 증가는 순증착속도를 증가 시킨다. 3) 순수한 CH4가스를 사용할 경우에는 바이어스전압(-VB)이 증가함에 따라 박막내 수소의 함량과 sp3/sp2비는 감소하는 경향을 나타낸다. 4)증착압력이 증가함에 따라 박막내 수소함량은 증가하며, sp3/sp2비는 감소한다. 5)50mTorr의 증착압력에 증착시, CH4-+Co2 혼합가스에서 이산화탄소의 부피분율에 따라서는 박막내 수소함량은 감소하며, sp3/sp2비는 증가한다.
