This Paper deals with the weight-lowering and the traits of NVH(Noise, Vibration and Harshness) by the development of tubular shaft replacing the existing solid Drive Shaft for the lighter and less-noisy automobiles. By the review of Swaging Process this study reveals the various forming traits of Swaging, one of the forming methods for tubular shafts. Furthermore, it showed the possibility of Drive Shaft manufacturing through designing & manufacturing of Swaging machine for tubular shaft, and the production ar analysis of the tubular shaft with the relevant process and tools. This study also shows that the forming by swaging not only makes the mass production of tubular Drive Shaft possible but also may be widely applied to other products with many advantages in review of dimensional precision, thickness change, hardness increase and surface roughness of the swaged products.

In this study, the vibration analysis and modal tests of cylindrical composite shells which are manufactured with various stacking sequences in present laboratory were conducted under the free-free and clamped-clamped boundary conditions. Natural frequencies and mode shapes of these specimens were experimentally obtained and their results are compared with theoretical and FEM results. Both results are in good agreement, which confirm the usefulness of proposed manufacturing method for cylindrical composite shells.

생산재와 소비재의 반제품을 이루고 있는 플라스틱 부품들이 다른 소재의 제품들을 대체하면서 급속히 증가하고 있다. 이는 사출성형의 공정으로 생산되는 제품들이며 플라스틱의 기능과 특성이 우수하다는 장점과 더불어 제품구현이 빠르고 대량생산이 가능하기 때문이기도 하다. 본 연구에서는 제조설비시스템(MES)를 임베디드 장치를 장착하여 플라스틱 사출금형으로 반제품을 생산하는 과정에서 공정상에 발생하는 이상 증후에 대한 진단과 장시간 생산이 진행되는 과정에서 사출성형조건의 지속성 유지의 문제점을 실시간으로 모니터링하여 예방과 대책 방법을 제시한다. 품질이상을 감지하기 위해 온도, 압력, 시간을 측정하기 위한 센서와 인터페이스 설계를 통해 작업자의 판단상황을 객관적으로 설치전과 후의 경제성 분석을 하였다.

New form of base isolators made of steel spring coated with both natural and artficial rubber were manufactured and tested for material properties. Shaking table experiments were performed using a model structure attached with the bearings. The model structure used in the test is a 1/4 scaled steel structure, and earthquake records were used to check the lateral and vertical stability and effectiveness of the isolators. According to the results all three types of isolators turned out to be effective in reducing the acceleration induced by the earthquake vibration.

Thermoformed appliance, which has been recently introduced for dental usage, is an appliance made of thermoformed sheets and formed with positive or negative pressure under heat. Thermoplastic material is a kind of plastics and can be repeatedly softened by heat. It is classified into hard elastic foil, hard/soft compound foil and soft elastic foil, including BIOPLAST, BIOCRYL, IMPRELON, etc. It has been developed in 1969 and is available in various thickness, shape and color. There are two types of Vacuum former for thermoplastic materials; the pressure type and suction type. The former is much better than the latter for fabrication of various appliances due to its higher pressure. The authors have applied these appliances to some cases - chin cap, active retainer, individual Fluoride tray, mouth protector, bracket transfer mask, bruxism splint(night guard), Essix appliance - by pressure type Vacuum former($Biostar^{(R)}$). The thermoplastic appliances have numerous advantages such as simple procedure, short working time, clean and transparent product, less objectionable taste. But its outstanding advantage would be its excellent biocompatibility bacause it has no monomer and hence no tissue irritation. Although there is some limitations in its usage, it can be used widely for various purposes especaily for pediatric dentistry.

This paper describes the forming conditions of smart-phone curved glass using the glass molding system with force applying system. The force applying system is composed of a body, a motor and gear, a rectilinear movement structure, a force sensor, a LVDT sensor (Linear Variable Differential Transformer), a up and down moving block, and so on. The glass molding system for characteristic test to find the forming conditions consists of the force applying system and a chamber, a metallic mold, a upper heater, a lower heater and so on. The characteristic test for forming conditions of smart-phone curved glass was carried out at forming temperature $620^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$ using the glass molding system. As a result of the characteristic test, the forming conditions of curved glass could be found, and it is thought that the conditions can be used to apply to the system for producing in large quantities.

Filling the microchannels is very important in designing micro-injection molding, microdevices, etc. In this paper, flow dynamics was studied in injection molding with microchannels. A transparent PMMA mold was designed and the flow dynamics was observed. The experiment was performed using poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and polyacrylamide (PA) aqueous solutions. The transignt dynamic flow and flow competition between the base plate and the microchannels were observed. The flow observation was used to explain previous filling length results in microchannels during micro-injection molding.

This study consists of two parts. The first discusses the development of a single production forming machine which was reported in earlier papers. The second outlines the development of a multi-production forming machine, which consists primarily of a film feeding unit, an unwinding unit, and a heating block unit. The heating block unit of the multi-production forming machine has 30 members per die. An analysis of the stress deformation and temperature deviation of this machine is carried out using ANSYS Workbench and CFX-11 under the design conditions. According to this analysis, the maximum deflection in the Z-direction is $0.05104{\mu}m$ and the maximum temperature deviation is $0.7^{\circ}C$ when the temperature of the heating block unit is $175^{\circ}C$. It was also found that these values are structurally safe. The advantage of the developed multi-production forming machine is demonstrated to be in its offering of a proper voice test.

Stereolithography is a process used to rapidly produce polymer components directly form a computer representation of the part. There are several considerations to be made for the efficient use of the process. Especially, the build-up orientation of part critically affects the part accuracy, total build time and the volume of support structures. The purpose of tis study is to determine the optimal build-up part orientation for the SLA process with improving part accuracy, and minimizing total build time and the volume of support structures. The forst factor is related to the area of surfaces whioch have staircase protrusions after solidification, the second factor is related to the total number of layers, and the third factor is related to the area of the surfaces which need to be supported with support structures. An algorithm is developed to calculate the staircase area, quantifying the process errors by the volume of materials supposed to be removed or added to the part, and the optimal layer thickness for the SLA system which can handle the variable layer thickness. So the optima l part orientation is determined based on the user's selections of primary criter- ion and the optimal thickness of layers is calculated at any part orientations.

Generally, an Linear Shaped Charge(LSC) is used for cutting a mechanical structure of various weapon systems. The penetration performance of an LSC is subjected to the type of explosive, the amount of explosive charge per unit length, the type of sheath material, stand-off distance from the target etc. In addition, the non-uniform cross-sectional shape originated from the manufacturing process may affect penetration performance. In this study, in order to analyze the penetration performance of an LSC, Computed Tomography(CT) images of its internal shape were taken and penetration experiments of the LSC were performed on a square metal bar. The experimental results showed that the penetration depths varied depending on the longitudinal position of the LSC, and at some locations, did not meet the required cutting performance. The LSC used in the experiment was manufactured to be able to cut a 4 mm plate, but in the results of the penetration performance experiment, there were many locations where the penetration depth was less than 4 mm. To find this reason, the penetration performance that did not meet the required cutting performance was simulated through AUTODYN based numerical analysis to confirm whether the LSC is cut in the plate. Through numerical analysis, it was confirmed that the penetration performance of an LSC varies depending on the thickness of the incision target due to the distribution of stress.
