최근 차세대 디스플레이, 터치스크린, 전자파 차폐 및 흡수 등의 다양한 응용분야에 적합한 소재를 개발하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현재 주로 사용되는 ITO박막은 희소원소인 인듐의 매장량 한계와 높은 비용이 문제시 되고 있기 때문에, 대체 재료의 개발이 시급하게 요구되고 있다. 탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 금속을 능가하는 이론적인 전기전도도를 갖고 있으며 높은 탄성등의 우수한 기계적 성질을 갖고 있어 다양한 차세대 응용에 있어서 최적의 재료로 주목을 받고 있다. 특히, CNT 기반의 투명전도막은 기존의 ITO 박막 보다 우수한 유연성이 기대되어 더욱 기대를 모으고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 최종 고순도 재료를 얻기까지 합성 및 정제에 많은 공정과 시간이 요구되는 고가의 단층벽 나노튜브(SWNT)를 이용하지 않고, 웨이퍼 기판 위에 수직배향 합성한 상태의 다층벽 나노튜브(MWNT)를 별도의 정제과정 없이 초음파 분산한 뒤, 스프레이 코팅법을 이용하여 고분자 기판 위에 투명전도막을 제작하였고, 이때 각기 다른 길이의 수직배향 MWNT를 이용하여 유연성 투명전도막의 전기적 특성에 미치는 MWNT 길이의 영향에 대해 알아보았다. MWNT는 아세틸렌가스를 이용하여 열CVD법으로 합성하였고, 합성시간을 제어함으로써 길이가 다른 MWNT를 얻을 수 있었다. 투명전도막 제조공정의 단순화를 위하여 이용한 MWNT의 초음파 분산 결과, $500{\mu}m$ 이하 길이의 MWNT에서 분산성이 현저히 빨라지는 것을 확인하였다. 한편, 제작한 MWNT 기반의 유연성 투명전도막은 원자간힘현미경 및 면저항 측정기를 이용하여 막 두께에 따른 면저항 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 응용 가능한 면저항을 갖는 MWNT 투명전도막의 두께는 최소 50 nm 이상이어야 함을 알았고, 특히 MWNT등의 접촉점(node) 수에 따른 접촉저항 및 전기전도경로(electric conductivity path)를 고려했을 때 최적의 MWNT 길이가 존재하는 것을 확인하였다.

The equations are derived for the evaluation of the axial contact force. The contact forces for rubber seals are analyzed as a function of the ratio of real contact length, the thickness of seal lip, the inclined angle of seal lip, and the interference between the edge of seal lip and the rotating inner ring. The design data for rubber seals are presented in terms of the ratio of real contact length, initial inclined lip angle, lip thickness and the interference. The calculated results show that the deflected interference and the circumferential stress cause considerable change of contcat forces for the low sealed pressure.

A numerical study, using the molecular dynamics simulation method, was carried out to investigate the wetting characteristics of water droplets on a solid square pillar surface with variable periodic edge length patterns at the nanoscale. In this study, the pillar plane was supposed to be rectangular or square shaped. In addition, the surface area was increased while the shape of the pillar plane was kept fixed. In the case of the square pillar, the edge length increased from $4.24{\AA}$ to $12.72{\AA}$. Also, the rectangular pillar had two types of length edges. In this case, one edge length was fixed at $8.48{\AA}$ and the other edge length was increased from $4.24{\AA}$ to $12.72{\AA}$. Through these length changes, the hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity of a water droplet on the variable pillar surfaces were analyzed.

In this study, new moment-resisting precast concrete beam-column joint is proposed for moderate seismic regions. It has the connection reinforcing bars, penetrated the joint and lap-spliced with the bottom bars of precast U-shaped PC beam. To evaluate the performance for noncontact lapped splice, experimental and analytical works were conducted. Major variables for tests are the length of lap, the diameter of connection reinforcing bars, and the distance between lapped bars. Analytic research was performed nonlinear finite element method. Analytic research focused on crack pattern, load-deflection curve, comparison of internal force, evaluation of ductility strains of reinforcement bar. Results of experimental and analytical works show that the these variables has much influence on flexural strength and ductility, and joint behavior.

The strength of glass/epoxy fabric joints under pin-loading is estimated based on the characteristics length method and experiment. To investigate the effect of finite element idealization for the contact between pin and laminate, three modeling cases are analyzed; assuming the cosine load distribution around the contact area, constraining the radial displacement at the hole boundary, and using the contact element. To study the effect of failure criteria, Tsai-Wu and Yamada-Sun methods are applied on the characteristic curve. The results of the nonlinear analysis using the contact element showed good agrements with experimental data in both laminates made of uni-directional prepreg tapes and fabrics. In terms of failure criteria, Tsai-Wu method showed better agreement with experimental results than the one by Yamada-Sun laminate.

The effects of solid surface roughness on the contact angle of a nanofluid droplet were experimentally investigated. The experiments were conducted using the solid surface of a 10 mm cubic copper block and the nanofluid of water mixed with CuO nanoparticles. The experimental results showed that the contact angles of nanofluid droplets were lower than those of water droplets and that the contact angle of the nanofluid droplet increased with the solid surface roughness. Furthermore, it was found that the contact angles of water droplets on the solid surface quenched by both water and the nanofluid were lower than those of water droplets on the pure solid surface. However, significant differences were not observed between the contact angles on the solid surfaces quenched by water and the nanofluid.

This paper focuses on the conformal contact problem. A typical example of conformal contact is the contact between a pin and hole. In particular, this paper focuses on the condition for assuming a contact stress field to be a Hertzian pressure profile by using well-known classical solutions associated with Hertzian contact. Persson first developed the conformal contact analysis method around half a century ago, but there have been no significant improvements since then. The present research also adopted this method, but developed new solutions from the viewpoint of application to structural design. The analysis began with a comparison between Persson°Øs conformal contact stress and the Hertzian stress fields. The next step was to check the differences in the normalized stress values of both. This study used the tolerance for the difference in the peak stresses of Persson°Øs solution and the Hertz solution to validate the Hertzian assumption. This gave the range for the difference in radii of the pin and hole when the contact force and mechanical properties of the material are specified. The results showed that, at a tolerance of 5%, the Hertzian assumption is valid if half of the contact angle is less than 35°ý. In addition, the Hertzian assumption holds even for a relatively long contact length, in contrast to the general incomplete contact problem. This paper discusses these results along with other aspects of the application to the design.

EMAT는 비접촉으로 초음파를 송수신 할 수 있는 탐촉자로서 시험체와 탐촉자간의 접촉을 위한 매개 물질이 필요치 않으므로, 움직이고 있는 물체에 초음파탐상법을 적용하고자 하는 분야와 초음파의 속도를 정밀하게 측정하고자 하는 분야에 주로 응용된다. 구체적으로는 길이가 긴 튜브류의 결함 탐상, 용접중인 재료의 용접상태 감시, 기차바퀴 및 레일의 결함 탐상, 고온상태인 재료의 결함 탐상 등이 비접촉 특성을 이용하여 적용될 수 있는 분야이며, 재료의 집합조직 및 소성이방성의 측정, 재료의 미세조직 및 기계적 강도의 예측, 그리고 잔류응력의 측정 등이 정밀한 초음파속도 및 감쇠의 측정으로부터 적용될 수 있는 분야이다. EMAT가 일반적인 접촉식초음파탐상법에 비하여 특별한 분야에의 응용에 큰 장점을 가지고 있지만, 낮은 에너지 전환효율, 넓은 불감영역, 그리고 사용주파수의 한계 등의 문제를 가지고 있기 때문에 기존의 접촉식 방법의 적용이 용이한 분야에의 적용은 필요하지 않다. 그러나 특별한 목적과 용도에의 적용 필요성이 생길 경우에는 적절한 연구를 통하여 알맞은 탐촉자를 제작하고 탐상 방법을 개발함으로서 본래의 목적에 알맞은 탐상이 수행될 수 있다.

In the present study, simple models were proposed to predict the capillary-driven flow length in a surfactant-added poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) rectangular microchannel. Owing to the hydrophobic nature of PDMS, it is difficult to transport water in a conventional PDMS microchannel by means of the capillary force alone. To overcome this problem, microchannels with a hydrophilic surface were fabricated using surfactant-added PDMS. By measuring the contact angle change on the surfactant-added PDMS surface, the behavior was investigated to establish a simple model. In order to predict the filling length induced by the capillary force, the Washburn equation was modified in the present study. From the investigation, it was found that the initial rate-of-change of the contact angle affected the filling length. Simple models were developed for three representative cases, and these can be useful tools in designing microfluidic manufacturing techniques including MIcroMolding In Capillaries (MIMIC).
