Implants for rhinoplasty should ideally be biocompatible and possess long-term stability after implantation. Silicone implants are most widely used for rhinoplasty. However, these implants suffer from problems related to high extrusion and infection rates. To minimize these complications, we propose a novel augmentation rhinoplasty technique using tissue engineering. To demonstrate its feasibility, a nasal-implant-shaped scaffold was designed using commercialized CAD software and fabricated using a Multi-head Deposition System, which is a solid freeform fabrication system that dispenses material. In vitro cell proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation tests were carried out using nasal septal chondrocytes.

Rotational-free-surface (RFS) is a special type of free surface whose two boundaries coincide. For NC machining of PFS, a rotational axis as well as three Cartesian axes are required. In this paper, we develop a four-axis CAM module consisting of: a) Geometric modeling of RFS, b) CL-data generation, and c) Graphic simulation of machining operation. To test the validity and effectiveness of the developed module, several test cuts are made with Bridgeport CNC milling machine and compared with the graphic simulation.

곡면의 폴리싱은 형상 및 공정 자체의 복잡성 때문에 아직까지 기계화 및 자동화가 잘 이루어지지 않고 있으나 정밀 기계부품 및 금형 관련 산업현장에서 매우 중요한 공정이기때문에 곡면 폴리싱 공정의 기계화 또는 자동화 연구가 최근에 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 능률적이면서 정밀한 곡면 폴리싱을 위하여 유연성 있는 두 가지 형태의 자력폴리싱 공구를 제작,해석하고 이를 이용한 곡면의 2단계 자력폴리싱 방법에 대하여 실험을 수행하고 고찰하였다.

Thickness profiled blank is designed using optimization techniques for maximizing the bulged heights during the free bulging of Inconel 718. The thickness of the blank was described by the Bezier curve and the locations of the control points were used as the design variables for optimization. The maximization of the bulged heights within the limited strain range served as the objective function and constraints for optimization. The equivalent static loads method for non-linear static response structural optimization (ESLSO) was used and the result of the optimization revealed 22 increased bulged heights. A free bulging test using a blank with an optimized profile was conducted to verify the optimization process. The results were compared with those of numerical analysis in terms of bulged height and deformed shape.

This paper deals with the study on the cutting characteristics in ball-end milling process. First of all, the effects of the geometric cutting conditions such as the cutting speed, feedrates and the path interval on the surface integrity were evaluat-ed by the analytical and the experimental approaches. Secondly, the cutting mechanism model was developed to predict the cutting force accurately. It is possible for the proposed model to predict the shape error, estimate system stability and build the reliable adaptive control system. A large amount of experimental set are performed to show the validities of the proposed theories and to investigate the effect of cutting geometry such as rubbing effects, burr effects and etc.

Aspherical mirrors have lighter weight and better performance than spherical mirrors, but it is difficult to process their shape and measure the processing precision. Especially, large aperture aspherical mirrors mounted on satellites need high processing precision and long processing time. The computerized numerically controlled machine of gantry type has been used in polishing process, but it has difficulties in processing the complex shapes due to the lack of degrees of freedom. In order to overcome this problem we developed a polishing system using an articulated industrial robot. The system consists of tool path generating program, real-time robot monitoring, and control program. We show the performance of the developed system through the computer simulation and actual robot operation.

A thick-layered RP process, transfer-type variable lamination manufacturing using expandable polystyrene foam (VLMST) has been developed to have the advantageous characteristics such as high building speed, low cost for introduction and maintenance of VLM-ST apparatus, and little staircase surface irregularities of parts. However, VLM-ST has difficulty fabricating an axisymmetric shape and a large-sized freeform shape because of the limited sloping angles and small build size. The objective of this paper is to develop a multi-functional hotwire cutting system using EPS-foam (MHC). MHC employs a four-axis synchronized hotwire cutter with the structure of two XY movable heads and a turntable. In order to examine the applicability of the developed MHC apparatus, an axisymmetric shape, a polyhedral shape and a large-sized freeform shape were fabricated on the apparatus.

Residual stress in the forged parts affects the resistance to mechanical failure, dimensional uniformity, and the service life of the parts. In order to elucidate the development of residual stress in open-die forging process, elasto-plastic finite element analysis was implemented to radial forging process. Super duplex stainless steel SAF 2507 was selected as workpiece material and a series of mechanical tests followed by numerical compensation to deformation heating was conducted to obtain necessary flow data. The residual stress distributions were calculated using commercial 3-D FEM code and the effects of process design were evaluated from selected results.

A crank throw, which is one of the part of crankshaft for a large diesel engine, is manufactured by both closed die forging and open die forging. For the improvement of productivity the open die forging method is usually adopted to manufacture it these days. In case of the open die forging for the crank throw, a preform shape is very important because it seriously affects final dimensions of the product. The purpose of this study is to investigate affective factors of the preform to obtain a good shape of final product through simulation and the results are compared to downsized lead experiments.
