Roll-to-roll forming process is one of important metal processing technology because the process is simple and economical. These days, with these merits, roll-to-roll forming process is tried to be employed in manufacturing the circuit board, barrier ribs and solar cell plate. The solar cell plate may have millions of patterns, and the analysis of forming considering all the patterns is impossible due to the computational costs. In this study, analyses are carried out for various numbers of patterns and the results are compared. It is shown that the analyses results with four row patterns and twelve row patterns are same. So, it is considered that the analysis can be carried out for only four rows of pattern for the design of incremental roll-to-roll forming process. Also formability is analysed for various number of mesh, protrusion shapes and forming temperature.

심폐바이패스시 발생할 수 있는 튜브 마모 및 파쇄는 롤러펌프의 반복되는 압박에 의해 롤러펌프에 장착된 튜브 내벽에 균열이 생기고 이로 인해 미세한 비생물적 조각들이 혈액중으로 떨어져 나가는 현상을 말하는데, 임상적으로 치명적인 색전증을 초래할 수 있다. 그러나 아직 롤러펌프 튜브로 사용되는 PVC 및 실리콘 튜브 중 어느 쪽이 마모 및 파쇄 관점에서 더 우수한지는 체계적으로 밝혀지지 않고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 두 종류의 튜브를각각 일정 기간 롤러펌프에 장착하여 작동시킨 뒤 튜브내외면을 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 즉 PVC 및 실리콘 튜브 (내경 1/2 인치의)들을 미리 정해진 폐쇄도 조절에 의해 폐쇄 회로 심폐비이패스 롤러펌프 헤드에 장착시키고 4.500ml/min에서 각각 4차례씩 1,2,4,6 시간 작동시켰다. 파쇄에 의한 색전 관찰 실험에서는 회로 중간에 동맥여과기를 설치하고 각각 6,9시간 씩 롤러펌프를 작동시켰다. 실험 후 튜브 및 여과기들을 수거한 후 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경 분석을 시행하였다. 실험후 튜브 및 여과기들을 수거한 후 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경을 분석을 시행하였다. 튜브 외부의 육안 관찰 결과 일반적으로 실라스틱 튜브에서의 외부 마모가 PVC 튜브에 비해 현저하였다. 주사형 전자현미경 관찰에서 PVC 튜브에서의 홈은 좁으면서 경계선이 뚜렷한 특징을 보였고 3시간 이상 롤러와 접촉한 튜브들에게서는 깊은 균열이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 반면, 실라스틱에서의 홈은 좁으면서도 경계선이 뚜렷한 특징을 보였고 3시간 이상 롤러와 접촉한 튜브들에게서는 깊은 균열이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다.반면 실라스틱에서의 튜브들에서는 홈이 상대적으로 넓고 경계가 덜 명확했으며, 특징적으로 V 자 모양의 융기부들이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 실라스틱 및 PVC 튜브 모두에서 50u 전후의 Craters 가 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 여과기의 여과망에 대한 주사형 전자현미경 분석 결과 실라스틱과 PVC 튜브 실험군 모두에서 색전입자로 의심되는조각들이 발견되었으나 두군간 정량적 비교는 어려웠다. 결론적으로 롤러펌프에 의한 튜브 마모 및 파쇄현상은 실리콘 및 PVC 튜브의 재질에 따라 그 양상에는 차이가 있으나 임상적인 측면에서는 어느 쪽도 상대적인 우수성이 입증되지 못하였다.

Ultra high temperature treated (UHT) skim milk and colloidal calcium phosphate-free skim milk were treated with microbial transglutaminase (TGase), ultracentrifuged at various rates, lyophilized, and observed for morphological properties with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). UHT skim milk showed small holes of associated micelles at lower centrifugal rates, and became thick and irregular, and fine particles were associated regularly at higher centrifugal rates. When UHT skim milk with TGase was incubated for 1 hour, casein micelles aggregated and broadened as centrifugation rate increased. When UHT skim milk with TGase was incubated for 8 hours, casein micelles were associated irregularly to large aggregates and widened. Colloidal calcium phosphate-free skim milk with TGase incubated for 1 hour and separated by two-step centrifugation showed aggregated lump, while the milk incubated for 8 hours with TGase was associated with broadened, compact, and regular layers as the centrifugation rate increased. Such phenomena were caused by heat treatment, protein crosslinking reaction catalyzed by TGase and conformational changes of casein molecules, and could be dependent on reaction time, temperature and ultracentrifugation rate.

A cutting device capable of generating various shapes of the cyclic elliptical trajectory of a cutting tool was proposed and micro v-grooving experiments were performed to investigate the characteristics of elliptical vibration cutting (EVC). The proposed cutting device is comprised of a pair of parallel piezoelectric actuators with which harmonic voltages of varying phase difference and magnitude are supplied, creating various shapes of the elliptical tool path. The attributes of the elliptical locus involving the direction of the axis of an ellipse, the rotational direction and amplitudes of a trajectory were fine-tuned for stable operation of the EVC. The EVC characteristics performed with brass and copper revealed reduction in the cutting resistance and suppression of burr formation, resulting in the enhancement of form accuracy of machined micro-features. While the effect of the EVC increases with the increase of excitation frequency and the amplitude, it is found that a change in the cutting force decreases as the amplitude of an elliptical locus increases.

With increasing the needs for micro and precision parts, micro machining technology has been studied to fabricate a small part with high density such as electronics, optics, communications, and medicine industry more than before. But there are many problems to be solved requiring a high-level technology. So this research presents the new method to fabricate a small part through applying chemical mechanical micro machining (C3M) for the Al wafer. Al(thickness I ,u m) was sputtered on the Si substrate. Al is widely used as a lightweight material. However form defect such as burr has a bad effect on products. To improve machinability of ductile material, oxide layer was formed on the surface of AI wafcr before grooving by chemical reaction with HN03(10wt%). And then workpieces were machined to compare conventional micro-machining process with newly suggested method at different machining condition such as load and feed rate. To evaluate whether or not the machinability was improved by the effect of chemical condition, such as the size, the width of grooves 'and burr generation were measured. Finally, it is confirmed that C3M is one of the feasible tools for micro machining with the aid of effect of the chemical reaction.

This study examined the effect of adhesive tape supplemented with sodium fluoride on the prevention of dental erosion in vitro. Sound bovine tooth samples were selected and divided randomly into the following 4 groups according to the material treatments: group 1, APF gel; group 2, fluoride varnish; and groups 3 and 4, fluoride tape supplemented with 5% NaF in either a methyl cellulose or poly vinyl acetate carrier, respectively. All specimens were submitted to alternate cycles of acid exposure in a cola beverage (pH 4.3) and artificial saliva for $6\;{\times}\;5\;min/day$ over a 5 day period. The micro-hardness was recorded each day and the lesion depth was measured after 5 days. The micro-hardness of the experimental sides of groups 2, 3 and 4 were significantly higher than that of their control sides and the experimental side of group 1 during the experimental period (p<0.05) except on the 5th day. The enamel surfaces of treatment groups 2, 3 and 4 showed significantly higher resistance to mineral loss in terms of the erosion depth (p<0.05) than group 1 and their control sides. There was no statistically significant difference among group 2, 3 and 4, indicating that the fluoride varnish and tapes produce similar results. Fluoride adhesive tapes are effective in reducing the progression of erosion and can be recommended for young patients who are more susceptible to dental erosion.

Mechanical micro-engineering is an easy and cheap way to fabricate micro-structures. If the application of the conventional machining method using flat-end mill becomes available for the micro-manufacturing process, it will be advanced as an extension of the conventional machining process. In this study, micro-grooves cutting using flat-end mill(($\phi$8) was performed. The characteristics on flat-end milling was investigated to improve machinability of micro-grooves. The experiments were performed according to variations of spindle revolution, depth of cut, and feed rate. Machinability through various cutting conditions was evaluated by surface geometry, tool wear, and cutting force. The results show that micro V-grooves of width(pitch) 29${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were acquired by flat-end milling. The maximum and minimum roughness of the wall of grooves was 438 and 67nm, respectively

The old technique of sandblasting which has been used for decoration of glass surface has recently been developed into a powder blasting technique for various materials, capable of producing micro structures larger than 100 m. This paper describes the performance of powder blasting technique in micro-line grooving of glass and the effect of the number of nozzle scanning on the depth and width of line groove. Experimental results showed that increasing the no. of nozzle scanning resulted in the increase of depth and width in grooves. Increase of width which may cause several problems in the precision machining results from wear of mask film.
