Rapid Prototyping(RP) techniques have unique characteristics according to their working principle: the stair-stepped surface of a part due to layer-by-layer stacking, low building speed, and additional post-processing to improve surface roughness. A new RP process, Variable Lamination Manufacturing by using expandable polystyrene foam(VLM-S), has been developed to overcome the unfavorable characteristics. The objective of this study is to investigate the thermal characteristics and skeleton size effects as the hotwire cuts EPS foam sheet in order to improve dimensional accuracy of the parts, which is produced by VLM-S. Empirical and analytical approaches are performed to find the relationship between cutting speed and heat input, and the relationship between maximum available cutting speed and heat input. In addition, empirical approaches are carried out to find the relationship between cutting error and skeleton size, and cutting deviation and skeleton size. Based on these results, the optimal hotwire cutting condition and available minimum skeleton size are derived. The outcomes of this study are reflecting in the enhancement of VLM-S input data generation S/W.

Satae cheon, a tributary of the Suip cheon in Yanggu, Gangwon province, is an international river extended to North Korea. Most of drainage basin area of the river was the fierce battle field during the Korean War(1950-1953) and hard to access as it located between the MDL(Military Demarcation Line) and the CCZ(Civilian Control Zone: about 10km south from MDL). By the restriction of access to the sites, most of natural landscape have been well conserved except limited use for military activities. Even the landfoms in that area were not studied, except the government's heritage reports. Satae Cheon's channel follows the Imdang fault line(N-S) to Satae-ri and flow to west to the Dutayeon area. The river meanders along geological structure or weak line at the Dutayeon area. The meandering channel was shorten by the meander cut which linked the thalweg line of meander loop ant the meander neck. As a result of this cut, the river cliff formed by the Satae cheon became the part of newly formed channel bed and the S-forms are formed. After the channel route stabilized, channel incised the rock with large potholes and undulating walls were formed. The channel width changes from 1m to 10m with restriction of the undulating walls, so this part can be regarded as inner channel or inner gorge. From the point of planar forms it also can be slot-type canyon.

Locally damaged structures caused by earthquake or extraordinary external forces have been required to rapidly be dismantled because of its possibility of additional collapses. Particularly, steel frame structures were demolished by the shaped charge blasting method. Recently a research suggested a shape charge blasting technique which uses bent-shaped charge holder of copper plate and emulsion explosive charge to cut thick steel plates. This study simulated the cutting performance of the bent-shaped charge holder with considering types of explosives, thickness of copper liner and stand-off distances using LS-DYNA software. The shape charge blasting test of a 25mm thickness steel plate were used to calibrate the input parameters of the numerical models. The penetration depth and penetration width were analysed with different types of explosives, thickness of copper liner and stand-off distances.

Sub-arrays of arbitrary conformal array have different geometric shape through steering direction, thus the beam patterns of sub-arrays are always non-uniform. In this paper, we apply the beam pattern synthesis method using convex optimization into the conformal array, and shows the improvement of uniformity of beam performance. The simulation is performed with the conformal array of cut-sphere shape. As a result, the standard deviation of 3 dB beamwidth in elevation is greatly reduced but the directivity index is also reduced. To alleviate this trade-off, we propose a convex optimization using a shading function.

국내에 유통되는 제초날은 대부분 금속으로 제작되며, 금속 날의 대부분 탄소공구강(SK-3~5)으로 제작되고, 날 수 및 날 형태에 따라 2도 날, 3도 날, 4도 날, 8도 날, 톱날로 구분된다. 대부분 평지 제초작업에 사용되고, 고랑 제초 작업에 알맞은 제초날의 없어 고랑 제초 작업의 효율이 떨어진다. 본 연구는 굴곡이 있는 밭의 고랑 제초 작업에 효율적인 원형 제초날을 설계 하고자 한다. 밭작물의 제초작업은 굴곡이 있는 이랑과 고랑 사이의 잡초를 제거해야 하기 때문에 평지의 잡초를 제거하는 제초날로는 제초작업이 거의 불가능하다. 따라서 고랑 형상에 맞는 원형 제초날을 설계 하였으며, 회전 균형 및 무게의 균일성 설계가 쉬운 뼈대형 원형 제초날을 설계한 후 데이터를 이용하여 원형 제초날을 설계하였다. 또한 고랑의 잡초 뿌리부분을 제거하기 위해 원형 제초날에 돌출부를 추가하는 방법으로 설계하였다. 제초날은 밭작물 고랑폭을 기준으로 하여 높이는 85mm 직경은 300mm로 설계하였으며, 제초날 설계시 원형 제초날은 뼈대형 원형 제초날과 같이 고랑폭을 기준으로 하여 높이 및 직경을 뼈대형 원형 제초날과 동일한 치수로 설계하였다. 원형 제초날 설계에서 돌출부를 볼트 결착방식으로 설계하였으며, 회전중 돌출부의 파손 혹은 이탈을 방지하기 위하여 직경 5mm이상의 볼트 결착이 필요하였다. 볼트 결착방식은 제초날 조립후 제초날 회전시 고랑의 잡초를 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 작업공간 확보가 어려울 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 제초날 원형부에 돌출부를 절단 절곡하는 방식으로 돌출부를 재설계하였으며, 돌출부 길이는 안쪽 부분 15mm, 바깥 부분 20mm로 설계하고, 돌출부 회전반경은 안쪽 날 20mm, 바깥 날 10mm로 설계하였다. 일반적인 제초날 과 달리 원형 제초날을 개발하기 위해서 회전균형과 안전이 제초날 설계에 중요한 요인이 된다. 뼈대형 제초날을 통하여 제초날의 균형 데이터를 분석하였고 이를 바탕으로 원형 제초날을 설계하였다. 또한 발란싱 머신을 이용한 회전시험에서 unbalance 정도가 3,600rpm에서 4.51/47.1deg로 나타나 제초기에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.
