During the cold wire-drawing process, the diameter of a wire is reduced and the length of the wire is increased as the wire passes through the die. The pressure and sliding motion at the interface between the wire and die cause elastic recovery of the workpiece and friction and wear on the die. In addition, wire deformation and frictional heating raise the temperature of the wire and die, resulting in difficulty in manufacturing the drawn products according to a designated inner diameter of the die, deviating from the designated dimension or the inner diameter of the die. In this study, considering the die temperature distribution, the effects of dimensional changes of the drawn products were analyzed quantitatively; these changes are caused by the elastic deformation of the die, the elastic recovery of the workpiece, and the thermal deformation of both the die and the workpiece. It was confirmed that the elastic recovery of the workpiece influenced these changes the most. The initial dies considering these factors could avoid deviation from the designated dimension, and the desired drawn products were obtained by using the designed initial drawing dies.

다결정 실리콘-게르마늄(poly-SiGe)은 태양전지 및 TFT-LCD와 같은 소자 응용에 있어서 중요하게 연구되고 있는 물질이다. 우리는 수소화된 비정질 실리콘-게르마늄 (a-Si1-xGex:H) 박막을 증착시키고 고상결정화시키며 XRD(x-ray diffraction) 및 ESR (electron spin resonance) 측정을 수행하였다. PECVD 증착가스는 SiH4과 GeH4가스를 사용하였고 Ge의 성분비는 x=0.0, 0.1, 0.5 정도로 조절되었다. 기판은 Corning 1737 glass를 사용하였고, 기판 온도는 20$0^{\circ}C$ 이었다. 증착압력과 r.f. 전력은 각각 0.6Torr와 3W이었다. 증착된 SiGe 박막은 고상결정화를 위해 $600^{\circ}C$ N2 분위기에서 가열되고, 그에 따른 XRD 및 ESR spectrum의 변화를 관찰하였다. ESR 측정은 X-band 그리고 상온에서 행해졌다. 먼저 XRD 측정으로부터 박막의 고상결정화 정도를 알 수 있었고, 고상결정화 과정이 초기 핵형성 단계와 결정화 단계, 그리고 더 이상 결정화가 일어나지 않는 완료 단계로 구분될 수 있음을 보여주었다. X값이 증가함에 따라 결정화 시간은 훨씬 단축되었다. ESR로 측정된 스핀 밀도는 a-Si1-xGex:H 박막이 처음 가열됨에 따라 전체적으로 크게 증가했다가, 결정화가 일어나면서 다시 감소하여 나중에는 거의 변화가 없었다. ESR 신호의 초기 증가는 수소 이탈에 의한 dangling bond의 증가에 기인하며, 다음 단계의 감소 및 안정 상태는 결정화에 따른 결정경계 영역의 감소와 결함들의 안정성에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 흥미로운 것은 Si1-xGex 합금의 경우 가열시간이 증가됨에 따라 Si-db(Si-dangling bond)와 Ge-db에 의한 신호가 서로 분리되어 나타났으며, 이 Si-db 스핀 밀도와 Ge-db 스핀밀도의 변화정도는 x값에 크게 의존함을 보여준 것이다. 즉 순수한 a-Si:H의 경우 Si-db 의 스핀밀도의 증가시간은 4시간 정도였고, 그리고 다시 감소하였으며, x=0.1 인 박막에서 Si-db와 Ge-db의 변화 시간은 순수 S-db 변화의 경우와 거의 유사하였다. 그러나 x=0.5 샘플에서는 Si-db의 변화가 빨라져서 0.1 시간 안에 증가되었고, Ge-db의 변화는 더 빠르게 수 분 동안에 증가 된후 다시 감소하였다. 이것은 수소의 Si에 대한 친화력 뿐 만아니라 Si-H과 Ge-H 결합에너지가 주위 원자들의 구성에 크게 영향받을 수 있는 가능성을 제시해준다.

A series of triaxial compression tests were performed on samples of compacted granite soil in a modified triaxial cell that allowed separate control of pore air pressure ($U_a$) and pore water pressure ($U_w$) in order to examine the characteristics of pore pressure, volume change and stress-strain behavior during undrained loading conditions. Triaxial samples of unsaturated and saturated compacted granite soil, 50mm in diameter and 100mm in height, were prepared by compaction in a mould. These samples were tested at 3 different suction values (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 kgf/cm$^2$) for unsaturated compacted granite soil and at 3 different confining stresses (1.0, 2.0, 4.0 kgf/cm$^2$). Results showed that only effective cohesion increased with little variation of friction angle, according to matric suction.

The reduction of the maximum acceleration which causes shock for a missile is very important to prevent abnormal operation of a missile and decrease size and cost of missile components. Because the maximum acceleration created by operation of an ejection gas generator occurs in the initial ejection stage, the design parameters which affect initial ejection stage were examined. The igniter and the nozzle closure were selected as design parameters of a gas generator. The maximum acceleration created by the gas generator was examined experimentally by changing of the design parameters. Finally the reduction effect of the maximum acceleration was compared quantitatively by static fire test of a gas generator. The maximum acceleration of the best model which was applied to each optimal design parameter was about 68% reduced than that of the reference model.

In this study, a preliminary design code was developed for the initiation of HTPB/LOX hybrid rocket system. HTPB was assumed to have a constant regression rate. And initial input parameters; number of port, initial O/F ratio F/W ratio, and chamber pressure, were varied to analyze the effects on the performance and geometry of rocket system. The results showed a qualitatively good agreement with previous data. And it was revealed that there exists a number of design results that meet the mission requirements and that we could find an optimal design case if a proper constraint would be imposed. Thus, it is natural to account for the optimal algorithm during the design procedure and to consider more realistic and reliable formulations used for weight estimation of structural supports and accessories.

The cooling of a injector effects on the vapor pressure of cryogenic oxidizer spray, and it decides the phase transition point at the ignition process, when the combustion chamber pressure increases drastically. The phase transition of oxidizer spray affects the ignition characteristics, and several ignition tests with the LOx/$GCH_4$ uni-element coaxial swirl injector was performed in the different initial temperatures of oxidizer injector, in order to investigate the effect of injector cooling on the ignition transient characteristics. At the transition point of oxidizer phase, where the combustion chamber pressure increased over the LOx vapor pressure, the temporary quenching phenomenon of the flame occurred. The lower temperature of chilled down injector and tubing tends to move up the phase transition earlier.

In order to investigate the change in soil arch structure developed within the soil subjected to trapdoor movement, various responses in the deformed particle assembly were observed via photoelastic measurement technique. The particle assembly was composed of the regularly stacked model particles coated by thin photoelastic material. Variation of the internal structure transmitting contact forces were observed by taking images showing the photoelastic responses and compared with the change in slip lines and pressures measured by load cells placed beneath the assembly. Initial soil arch structure established immediately after the trapdoor movement collapsed progressively and meanwhile a new extended structure was developed against further movement of the trapdoor. For the sufficient movement of the trapdoor, initially identical regions bounded by the soil arch structure and slip lines were separated and the region enclosed by slip lines became a part of the region loosing the transmitting contact forces identified by photoelastic measurement.

Hydrodynamics and mixing characteristics such as circulation time, mixing time, circulation velocity and axial dispersion coefficient were investigated using highly viscous pseudoplastic solutions of carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC) in an external circulation loop air-lift reactor with 13$\ell$ working volume. The superficial gas velocity was changed from 1.9 to 6.2cm/s and CMC concentration from 0 to 1.0wt%. The theoretical model based on the pressure balance is developed mathematically to predict liquid circulation velocity. Gas hold-up, circulation velocity and axial dispersion coefficient of liquid phase increased with increasing gas velocity and decreased slightly with increasing liquid viscosity. Mixing time and circulation time decreased with increasing gas velocity and increased with increasing liquid viscosity. Experimental data on liquid circulation velocity were in good agreement with the predicted values.

Implantable biodegradable wafers were prepared with pamidronate -loaded poly (L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA, 75 : 25 mole ratio by lactide to glycolide, molecular weight : 20000 and 90000 g/mole) by direct compression method for the sustained release of pamidronate to investigate the possibility for the treatment of bone resorption. Pamidronate-loaded PLGA powders were prepared by means of physical mixing and spray drying with the control of formulation factors and characterized by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer. The pamidronate-loaded PLGA powders fabricated into wafers by direct compression under the constant pressure and time at room temperature. These wafers were also observed for their structural characteristic, release pattern, and degradation pattern. The release rate of pamidronate increased with increasing their initial loading ratio as well as increasing wafer thickness. The molecular weight of PLGA affects the release pattern : the higher molecular weight of PLGA, the faster release rate. It can be explained that the higher viscosity of high molecular PLGA solution at same concentration tends to aggregate PLGA and pamidronate resulting in unstable pharmaceutical dosage form. This system had advantages in terms of simplicity in design and obviousness of drug release rate and nay be useful as an implantable dosage form for the treatment of aural cholesteatoma.

A thermo-fluid dynamic analysis was performed through the numerical simulation of a missile canister. Calculation was made in a fixed analytical volume and fully evaporated water was used as a coolant. To analyze the interaction among the hot gas, coolant, and mixture flow, Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence and VOF(Volume Of Fluid) model were chosen and parametric study was performed with the change of coolant flow rate. It could be found that the pressure on the canister top nonlinearly increased with the increase of coolant flow rate. Temperature and coolant distribution were closely related to the flow behavior in canister. Temperature on the canister bottom indicated a decrease being proportional to coolant flow rate in early times but after a specific time, the temperature increased with the tendency being reversed. In addition, the early part of temperature showed a fluctuating phenomenon because of the overall circulatory flow of mixture gas.
