고분자 전해질 연료전지 (PEMFC)의 핵심 부품 중의 하나인 Bipolar Plate (분리판)을 제조하기 위해서 고분자/그라파이트 복합재료를 사용하였다. 고분자 매트릭스로는 경화시 뛰어난 화학적, 기계적 특성을 갖는 에폭시를 채택하였고, 전기 전도성을 부여하기 위해 그라파이트를 도입하였으며, 에폭시 수지의 내충격성을 향상시키기 위해서 Carbon Fiber를 채택하였다. 에폭시 분말과 그라파이트 분말, 그리고 1cm 정도의 길이를 갖는 Carbon Fiber을 믹서에 넣고 균일하게 혼합하였다. 이 혼합물을 이형제 처리된 몰드에 주입하고, Hot Press를 사용하여 가열, 가압 ($150^{\circ}C$, 4 ton/$cm^2$, 2시간)하면서 경화시켰다. 일정 비율로 고정된 에폭시/그라파이트 계에 Carbon Filber의 혼합 비율을 변화시키면서 전기적, 물리적 성질의 변화를 연구하였다.

스냅핏은 일종의 결속장치로서 흔히 플라스틱 부품들을 서로 체결하는데 이용되는데, 다른 결속장치에 비해 간편하고 생산품의 조립단가를 줄일 수 있고, 또한 분리력은 큰 반면에 결합력은 작게 만들 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있어 널리 사용된다. 스냅핏의 설계는 재료에 따른 물성(property) 및 구조적 강성(stiffness)이 설계 초기단계에서 고려되어야 하고, 또한 사출성형공정에서 스냅핏의 성형성도 예측되어야 한다. 그러나 스냅핏의 형상, 치수, 위치 등을 적절히 설계합성(synthesis)하고 적절한 재료를 선택하는 작업은 공정에 관한 종합적인 지식을 지원해 주는 합리적인 설계도구가 제공되지 못했던 이유로 사출 전문가의 오랜 기간 축적된 경험과 지식에만 전적으로 의존하여 왔다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 전문가에 의존해온 스냅핏 설계방법을 개선하기 위해 사출성형에 의해 제한되어지는 지식을 규칙베이스화하고 재료의 물성과 스냅핏의 형상 및 치수에 파라 스냅핏이 갖는 결합력, 분리력, 변형하중 및 허용언더컷 등을 출력하는 지적 설계 프로그램을 제안하였다.

This paper presents a choosing method of turning devices for stable robotic assembly based on verification of a base assembly motion instability. In flexible assembly application, the base assembly needs to be maintained in its assembled state without being taken apart. Therefore, the instability of the base assembly motion should be considered when determining the guide line of choosing turning devices by evaluating a degree of the motion instability of the base assembly. To derive the instability, first we inference collision free assembly directions by extracting separable directions for the mating parts and calculate the separability which gives informations as to how the parts can be essily separated. Using these results, we determine the instability evaluated by summing all the modified separabilites of each component part within base assembly.

Most of the guided weapons have been kept and transferred at the launching tube and fired in case of necessity in these day. Launching tube is a kind of case to protect the guided weapons from external environments and conducted as a guide when they are fired. When we attached the guided weapons to launching tube we usually has used explosive bolt. Explosive bolts have been used explosives when they had to be separated. But when they are separated there are some bad effects; a flame, fragments and pyre-shock. Because of these bad effects there are many restriction to use bolt as joining devices to precision guided weapons. To solve these problems we invented ball type bolt. Unlike explosive bolt, ball type bolt is separated without a flame, fragments and pyre-shock. And it also has a good mechanical properties as much as those of explosive bolt.

A cylindrical secondary Li-ion cell is a device in which stored chemical energy is converted to electrical energy via an electrochemical reaction. These cells are widely used for applications that require high capacity and rate power, such as notebooks, power tools, and electric vehicles. The role of a center pin is to retain the channel for gas release, preventing blockage of the hollow of the jelly roll during a charge-discharge cycle, and to prevent an internal short circuit for tearing of separator under mechanical free fall. In this paper, two experiments are conducted with and without the center pin to experimentally verify the importance of the role of the center pin. The first experiment is a 50-cycle charge-discharge cycle test, and the second is a free fall test conducted according to the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standards. Based on these experiments, we demonstrate that the center pin in a cylindrical cell is a very important component in terms of safety.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) based membranes are promising candidates for separation membranes by showing high water transport rate and ion rejection rate according to their radii. The ion selectivity is an important factor to discover the full potential of CNT membranes, and it is affected by the functionalization of CNTs. With multivalent/size ion mixtures, the ion selectivity is affected by not only ion-functional groups interaction but also ion-ion interactions and ion size exclusion in a complex manner. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study the ion selectivity of functionalized carbon nanotubes when multivalent/size ions are contained. The permeation energy barriers are calculated by plotting potential of mean force profiles, and various factors, such as CNT size and partial charges, affecting ion selectivity are investigated. The results presented here will be useful for designing CNT membranes for ion separation, biomimetic ion channels, etc.

O-rings fill the gaps between mechanical parts. Until now, the sorting of defective products has been performed visually and manually, so classification errors often occur. Therefore, a camera-based defect classification system without human intervention is required. However, a binarization process is required to separate the required region from the background in the camera input image. In this paper, an adaptive binarization technique that considers the surrounding pixel values is applied to solve the problem that single-threshold binarization is difficult to apply due to factors such as changes in ambient lighting or reflections. In addition, the convex hull technique is also applied to compensate for the missing pixel part. And the learning model to be applied to the separated region applies the residual error-based deep learning neural network model, which is advantageous when the defective characteristic is non-linear. It is suggested that the proposed system through experiments can be applied to the automation of O-ring defect detection.

The separation of metallic and semiconducting single-wall carbon nanobubes (SWCNTs) by agarose gel method was carried out in this study. The effect of concentration of agarose, SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate), and pH in the solution on separation behavior was investigated. With increasing the concentration of agarose in the solution, it showed that the ratio of metallic SWCNTs, which was analyzed from UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy, was increased in the solution phase, while the overall concentration of SWCNTs was decreased. With increasing the concentration of SDS, we could observe that the ratio of metallic SWCNTs was increased due to more affinity between SDS molecules and metallic SWCNT. The highest metallic SWCNTs ratio was reached up to 58.4% when the pH of solution was 8.2.
