Micro polysilicon actuators, which are widely used in the field of MEMS (Microelectromechanical System) technology, were fabricated using polysilicon thin layers. Polysilicon deposition were carried out to have symmetrical layer structures with a LPCVD (Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition) system, and we have measured physical characteristics by micro test patterns, such as bridges and cantilevers to verify minimal mechanical stress and stress gradient in the polysilicon layers according to the methods of mutilayer deposition, doping, and thermal treatment, also, analyzed the properties of each specimen, which have a different process condition, by XRD, and SIMS etc.. Finally, the fabricated planar polysilicon resonator, symmetrically stacked to $6.5{\mu}m$ thickness, showed Q of 1270 and oscillation ampitude of $5{\mu}m$ under DC 15V, AC 0.05V, and 1000 mtorr pressure. The developed micro polysilicon resonator can be utilized to micro gyroscope and accelerometer sensor.

The characteristics and production mechanism of residual stress generated by multi-pass welding of the steel pipe were elucidated from the results of three-dimensional thermal elastic-plastic FEM analysis. When the steel pipe was jointed by multi-pass welding, the stress components of circumferential direction and radial direction near welded joints on the inner surface and the outer surface of the pope were tensile. The stress component of axial direction on the inner surface was tensile and on the outer surface was compressive. On the other hands, the production mechanism of residual stress generated by multi-pass welding of the steel pipe was investigated. Residual stress generated by welding of the steel pipe was investigated not only by the thermal history but also by geometrical shape. Then, the generality of the production mechanism of residual stress generated by multi-pass welding was confirmed.

Generally, joints are the weakest part in the composite structures. Composite joints can be classified into adhesive joints and mechanical joints, and mechanical joints are mainly used in areas less sensitive to environmental conditions. In this paper, the failure loads of composite mechanical joints with five different stacking angles are tested and predicted. Finite element analysis of mechanical joints were performed and failure loads were predicted by the FAI(Failure Area Index) method using Tsai-Wu and Yamada-Sun failure criteria, and the predicted failure loads were compared with experimental results. From the experiment and analysis, the failure loads of the mechanical joints were decreased as the ratio of 0 degree layer was low and they could be predicted within 13.03% using the FAI method and Yamada-Sun failure criteria.

Crystallinity and structual properties of the epitaxially grown Pt films on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate by rf magnetron sputtering at a substrate temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ were studied by using backscattering spectrometry (BS)/channeling and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements. $MeV^4$He ion BS/channeling results showed that the channeling minimum yield of Pt film with a thickness of 3500$\AA$ was 4%. This indicates an excellent crystallinity of Pt film. When the thickness of Pt film was less than 200 $\AA$, the channeling minimum yield of Pt film increased sharply with the decrease in film thickness. The Pt layer on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate grew epitaxially to the direction of (111) with six-fold symmetry. Cross-sectional TEM images also showed that Pt film on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate consist of twinned domains to release the strain induced by the lattice mismatch and the surface roughness of the film increased at the twin boundaries where the strain was contcentrated.

In this paper, a simple improved 8-node finite element for the finite element analysis of fibrous composite plates is presented by using the direct modification. We drive explicit expressions of shape functions for the 8-node element with bilinear element geometry, which is modified so that it can represent any quadratic fields in Cartesian coordinates. The refined first-order shear deformation theory is proposed, which results in parabolic through-thickness distribution of the transverse shear strains and stresses from the formulation based on the third-order shear deformation theory. It eliminates the need for shear correction factors in the first-order theory. This finite element is further improved by combined use of assumed strain, modified shape function, and refined first-order theory. To show the effectiveness of our simple modification on the 8-node finite elements, numerical studies are carried out the static, buckling and free vibration analysis of fibrous composite plates.

The main objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the effect of adhesive thickness and environmental conditions on the failure and strength of sandwich-to-laminate bonded joints. Three different adhesive thicknesses (t=0.2, 2 and 4 mm) and two different environmental conditions were considered. Environmental conditions include the RTD(room temperature and dry condition) and ETW(elevated temperature and wet condition). Test results show as the adhesive thickness increases from 0.2 mm to 2 and 4 mm, the joint strength decreases 16 and 30%, respectively. Regarding the effect of environmental conditions, except for one case, the joint strength in the ETW conditions turned out to be 12% higher than those in the RTD conditions. In the joints with adhesive thickness of 0.2 mm, remarkable difference from RTD condition was not found.

최근 센서, 전자기술의 발달은 소형 센서 기기의 구동에 필요한 파워를 줄여 주변의 진동이나 온도차등에서의 작은 에너지로도 센서 등의 소형 전자기기의 구동을 가능하게 했다. 이에 따라 전자기기의 구동에너지로써 에너지 하베스팅이 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 압전 효과를 이용하여 주변의 진동에너지를 전기에너지로 변화 시키는 압전에너지 하베스터는 온도차이나 태양광, 바람등과는 달리 날씨나 구동조건에 큰 영항을 받지 않는 장점과 그 크기가 비교적 소형이라는 장점이 있어 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 에너지 하베스터에서 생산된 에너지를 사용하기 위해서는 생산된 에너지를 저장장치에 저장해야 한다. 저장장치에 저장하기 위해서는 일정 이상의 전압과 많은 양의 전류가 있는 것이 효과적이다. 하지만 압전 세라믹의 출력 특성은 전압이 크고, 출력 전류가 작은 특성을 지지고 있어 충전 속도가 느리다는 문제점이 있다. 압전세라믹에서 발생되는 에너지는 세라믹의 두께와 세라믹의 전극면적에 비례하는데 각각 세라믹의 두께는 출력 전압에 영향을 주며, 세라믹의 전극면적은 발생하는 전하량에 영항을 준다. 이러한 압전체의 특징을 이용하여 본 연구에서는 압전체의 출력특성의 향상을 위하여 $10\times35mm^2$ 크기의 적층 세라믹을 제작하여 압전에너지 하베스터를 제작하였다. 적층 압전세라믹을 이용한 에너지 하베스터에서 3.5m/$s^2$ 24.6 ${\mu}m$의 진동에서 발생전압 2.14 V 에 발생전류 252 ${\mu}A$의 특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

Near infrared blocking function in energy saving window glass is required. The design, deposition and characteristics of optical thin films for reflection of near-infrared light were studied. The optical thin film is designed as laminated film structure with low refractive index film and high index film. Deposition experiments of $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ thin films with designed structure using the RF sputtering method were carried out. The characteristics of the thin film with deposition conditions were analyzed. High-refractive-index thin film of $TiO_2$/low refractive-index thin film of $SiO_2$ and high-refractive-index thin film of $TiO_2$ structure for reflection of near-infrared light was designed to be simulated. Results of simulation showed reflectance of 30% or more in the range from 930nm to 1682nm. Triple layer thin films fabricated with simulated results showed wavelength bands from 930nm to 1525nm for the reflectance of 33% or more.

Four swirl coaxial injectors with different recess lengths were manufactured using an additive manufacturing method. Single-injection and bi-injection cold-flow experiments were performed using water and air as simulated propellants in an atmospheric pressure environment. According to the recess length and propellant flow conditions, the injection pressure drop and discharge coefficient were investigated, and the breakup length and spray angle were measured using an image processing technique. In the bi-injection pressure drop and discharge coefficient results, the liquid-side injector was not affected by the recess. For the gas-side injector, however, the injection pressure drop increased and the discharge coefficient decreased as the recess length increased. The breakup length in the single-injection increased with the increase of the recess, but decreased in the bi-injection.
