We have investigated the unexpected phenomena on the surface of molded GFRP composites. The major cause of the unevenness, as a result of which the surface becomes rough, is a shrinking of the matrix in the process of holding pressure and cooling temperature. The higher holding pressure load in a molding process and the lower demolding temperature in an annealing experiment, the better GFRP composites moldings improved its appearance. In addition, by taking the holding pressure and demolding temperature into consideration, we evaluate the process that causes the surface unevenness and the variation in the fiber projection height.

In this study, we studied characteristics on human tactile perception according to the depth and the pitch of surface roughness. Three experiments were performed for this study. The first experiment was to arrange samples in the order of their roughness. The second experiment was to group samples according to their roughness. And, the third experiment was to subjectively evaluate the level of roughness for each sample using adjective scales. Through these experimental studies, we could verify that the depth and the pitch of surface roughness give a significant effect on tactile perception and the depth gives more significant effect than the pitch. So, the depth of surface roughness must be more importantly considered than the pitch in the tactile user interface design of product.

최근 이상홍수 및 하천정비 등으로 인해 갈수시 또는 홍수시 하천 모니터링을 위한 기초자료로 유량측정의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 기존 유량측정 방법은 고비용과 다수의 측정인력이 필요하기 때문에 이를 개선하기 위하여 최근 전자장비를 이용한 비접촉식 유량측정에 대한 연구가 다수 진행 중에 있다. 이 중 간편하고 측정 정확도를 유지할 수 있는 표면영상유속계(SIV, Surface Image Velocimetry)에 대한 연구가 국내외에서 다양하게 이루어지고 있다. 표면영상유속계는 일정 시간 간격을 갖는 두 영상을 분석하여 유속을 계산하기 때문에 수표면이 움직이는 시간보다 두 영상 사이의 시간 간격을 길게 할 경우 잘못된 상관영역을 찾게 되어 유속 측정의 정확도를 떨어뜨릴 수 있다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해서 영상간의 시간간격 변화에 따른 표면영상유속계의 정확도 분석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서는 영상간의 시간간격에 따른 표면영상유속계의 정확도 분석을 위해 현장에서 수면 요철이 발생하는 근경 영상을 이용하여 영상내의 수면 움직임의 최소 지속시간을 측정하였다. 측정 결과 대부분의 수면 요철은 0.1 ~ 0.2 초 내에서 발생하였다. 측정 결과 일반 캠코더를 이용하여 초당 최대 30장의 영상을 이용하여 하천 표면유속을 측정한다면 문제가 없을 것으로 판단된다.

Rail corrugation is continuously increasing due to the lack of maintenance regulations for the amount of rail irregularities. Rail corrugation is causing various problems, such as a decrease in ride comfort and an increase in the amount of track maintenance. In this paper, the effect of rail corrugation on the track force was analyzed by measuring the rail irregularities before and after rail grinding and the track measurements (dynamic wheel load, displacement, and acceleration) for the section where the rail corrugation occurred. In addition, it was experimentally proven that the rail grinding performed to reduce the corrugation of the rail was very effective in reducing the additional forces on the track.

Acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive(PSA) was prepared by UV radiation curing and the peel energy and physical properties of PSA were investigated. The increase of amount of acrylic acid leads to improve the peel energy, associated with the substrate having smooth surface and high layer thickness. The high peel energy is obtained when the direction of irregularity in substrate is horizontal with the peeling direction. This is attributed to the increase of resistance to peeling in spite of decrease of wetting and the result corresponds to our supposition.

The rail surface defects can cause the high impact load on the track and lead to the progress of the rail fatigue damage and the rail break. In case of the rail break, there is a great deal of risk for derailment, and thus the maintenance criteria for the rail surface defects are of great importance. In this study, using the dynamic train-track interaction analysis program, the impact wheel loads and rail bending stresses according to the depths of the surface defects have been calculated with the input data of the rail surface irregularities measured at 43 spots with surface defects in the ballasted track of high-speed railway. Considering the irregularity of track geometry, the allowable limits of wheel load and rail bending stress have been set, and the maintenance criteria for the rail surface defects was suggested by analyzing the relationship of the maximum values of wheel load and rail bending stress versus depth and width of rail surface defect. The analysis results suggest that the allowable depth of the surface defect is determined approximately 0.2mm from the limit of the impact wheel load.

The effect of stainless steel jagged-pin reinforcement on the pull-off strength of the composite hat-joint was studied by the test. The pins were physically and chemically surface-treated and inserted in the thickness direction over the interface where the skin and stiffener meet. The specimens including the jagged-pins were made by co-curing process. Diameters of the jagged-pins were 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 mm. The pin areal densities were set to 0.5 and 2.0% based on the interface area where the skin and stiffener meet. The specimens using 0.3 mm diameter normal (un-jagged) pins with 2.0% areal density were additionally fabricated and tested to investigate the pin shape effect on the pull-off strength. The pull-off strengths of specimens reinforced with 0.5% areal density by 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7 mm diameter pins were 45, 19 and 9% higher than those of un-reinforced specimens, respectively. In case with 2.0% pin areal density, the strengths were 127, 45, and 11% higher than those of un-reinforced specimens, respectively. The test results show that the higher pin areal density results in the higher strength when the pin diameter is the same. When the pin areal density is the same, the smaller pin diameter leads to higher strength. When the joints using jagged-pins and normal pins in 2.0% areal density with 0.3 mm diameter, the joints of jagged-pins showed the 64% higher strength. From the results of this study, it was confirmed that jagged-pin reinforcement can be an effective method for improving the pull-off strength of composite hat-joint.

The A-B-A type block copoly(ester-ether)s consisting of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA)(A) and poly(oxyethylene-co-oxypropylene)(B) were prepared to improve the mechanical properties and hydrolyzability of PLLA. The block copolymers showed an improved flexibility due to the incorporation of the soft segments. Then, the same copolymer has an improved anti-thrombogenicity probably due to the specific microphase separation structure in the surface. The AFM of the film of the block copolymer revealed that the surface was quite flat in comparison with that of PLLA. Therefore, the flatness of the surface may be related with the increased anti-thrombogenicity of the copolymer film.

Nd-(Fe, Co)-B합금에 Ni, Al, Ti등을 복합치환하여 그에 따른 산화거동과 자기적 성질의 변화를 조사하였다. 이들 리본의 산호거동은 parabolic한 거동을 나타내고 있으며, Ni 첨가시 매우 낮은 산화량을 나타내었다. 또한 산화된 리본은 Nd-rich상의 우선적 산화에 의해 표면에 요철이 관찰되었으며 Ni 첨가시 그러한 요철은 많이 줄어들었다. 표면의 산화층은 Nd산화물이었고, 이는 입계에 있는 Nd-rich상이 산화되고 이것이 확산 통로로 작용하였다고 생각된다. 산화가 진행됨에 따라 입계상에 의한 domain wall pinning이 약해져 자기특성이 저하하였다. 그러나 Ni 첨가시 이러한 산화거동이 크게 억제되었으며 Ni의 첨가는 Nd-rich상의 산화저항성을 증가시킴으로써 리본의 산화를 억제해 자기특성의 저하를 억제하였다.

It is well known that surface texturing improves the tribological properties of mechanical components for enhancing hydro-dynamic effect or serving as a micro reservoir. There are not, however, enough researches to reveal the effects of surface texturing on the tribological properties under grease lubrication which is used in lubricating many mechanical elements. In the present study, therefore, the effects of surface texturing on the tribological properties are investigated under grease lubrication based on an experimental approach. The results show that surface texturing decreases friction coefficient. It is found that the friction coefficient can be decreased by controlling the diameter and density of micro-dimple. The diameter of dimple is more effective under high load and low speed than otherwise. And, the density of dimple is effective under low load and high speed.
