Grey relational analysis has been carried out to develop a new approach for optimization of Nd:YAG laser and MIG hybrid welding parameters. The quality of welded material depends on welding parameters. The parameters chosen for current study include wire type, shielding gas, laser energy, laser focus, traveling speed, and wire feed rate. The welding experiments were performed on 6K21-T4 aluminum alloy sheet. Functional demands on products may vary widely depending on their use. The ultimate tensile stress, width, and penetration were chosen as the optimization criterion. Practice based on an orthogonal array which is following Taguchi's method has been progressed. Base on the results of grey relational analysis, the optimal process parameters were obtained. This integrated work was judged and it is observed that the results obtained by using the optimal parameters are much improved compared to those obtained through initial setting.

Dual fuel engines are suitable for stricter regulations as they significantly decrease exhaust gas output. Hence, research and development of double wall bellows for dual fuel engines is important. In this study, optimum forming methods and welding conditions were derived to develop double wall bellows made of austenite stainless steel. The reliability of the prototypes was ensured by various performance evaluations. In this study, the buckling load and bellows stress were obtained by structural design, buckling, and stress analysis to design optimum bellows. As a result, the buckling load in the embossing shape of bellows increased by approximately 1.6 times, and no buckling and squirming occurred at 30.0 bar, which was twice that of the maximum design pressure.

A study on friction welding of stainless steel bar(SUS431) to chrome molybdenum steel bar(SCM21) was accomplished experimentally through analysis for relations among friction welding conditions, tension test, hardness test, microstructure test and acoustic emission test. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; 1. Through friction welding of SUS431 bar to SCM21 bar, the optimum welding condition by considering on strength and toughness was found to be the range of heating time of 3-5 sec when the number of rotating speed of 2000rpm, heating pressure of 10kg/$mm^2$, and upsetting time of 4 sec. 2. Quantitative ralationship was identified between heating time($T_1$, sec) and tensile strength (${\sigma},\;kgf/mm^2$) of the friction welded joint and the relation equation is $\sigma$=52.62$T_1{^{0.06}}$. 3. Through AE test, quantitative relationship was confirmed between heating time($T_1$, sec) and total AE(N, counts) during welding, and the relation is computed as follows ; N=30413.6$e^{0.06T1}$. 4. It was confirmed that the quantitative ralationship exists between the tensile strength of the welded joints and AE cumulative counts. And the relation is computed as the following ; ${\sigma}$=16.37(ln N)- 116.4. 5. When ONZ=36500-41500 counts by $OT_1Z$=3~5sec, it was identified by experiment that the range of welded joint tensile strength is 55.6-57.7kgf/$mm^2$/ whose joint efficiency is more than 100%, and it was experimentally confirmed that the real-time nondestructive quality(strength) evaluation for the friction welded joints could be possible by acoustic emission technique.

Friction welding was performed to investigate mechanical properties for Ni-base superalloy with 15 mm diameter solid bar. The main friction welding parameters were selected to endure good quality welds on the basis of visual examination, tensile tests, impact energy test, Vickers hardness surveys of the bond of area and heat affected zone. And then, the nondestructive technique to evaluate the weld quality was carried out by acoustic emission(AE) and ultrasonic attenuation coefficient. The tensile strength of the friction welded joint was shown up to 90 % of the Alloy718 base metal under the condition of the heating time over 5 sec. The optimal welding conditions were n=2,000 rpm, $P_1=200$ MPa, $P_2=200$ MPa, $t_1=8$ sec and $t_2=5$ sec when the total upset length was 4.4 mm.

레이저 가공기술은 재료가공 분야에서 넓은 응용분야를 가지고 있으며, 특히 절단, 용접, 열처리 등의 가공분야에서 고정밀도와 자동화의 용이성으로 인해 생산성이 높은, 고부가가치의 첨단응용 기술로 부각되고 있다. 특히 레이저절단은 타 절단법에 비교되는 절단정도, 열영향, 생산성, 작업 환경등의 각종 우위성으로 박판 및 후판절단분야에서 급속한 보급을 보이기 시작하였다. 현재 대 부분의 레이저 가공기는 CNC화 되어가고 있는 추세이며, 레이저 절단의 경우 생산성증대 및 고 정밀화를 위하여 CAD/CAM인터페이스에 의한 자동화가 필연적인 상황이다. 뿐만아니라 고출력 레이저 발전기를 가공 기본체에 탑재한 탑재형 레이저가공기의 출현으로 대형부재의 절단이 가능 하게 되었으며, 더불어 절단공정의 무인화를 지향하는 각종 시스템이 개발되고 있다. 이와 같은 무인화, 생산성증대, 작업시간단축과 러닝 코스트 및 재료의 절감을 위한 노력의 일환으로 컴 퓨터에 의한 자동 및 반자동 네스팅 시스템의 개발을 들 수 있다. 레이저에 의한 2차원 절단응 용분야에서의 네스팅작업은 설계가 끝난 각 부품의 절단작업의 전단계로서 수행되며, 일반적으로 네스팅공정이 완료되면 절단경로를 결정하고 가공조건과 함께 수치제어공작기계의 제어에 필요한 NC코드를 생성하게 된다. 최근에는 이와 같은 네스팅 시스템이 일부 생산현장에 적용되고 있 으나 이러한 시스템들의 대부분이 외국에서 개발된 것을 수입하여 사용하는 실정이다. 2차원 패턴의 최적자동배치문제는 비단 레이저 절단과 같은 열가공 분야에서 뿐만 아니라 블랭킹 금형, 의류, 유리, 목재등 여러분야에서 응용이 가능하며 패키지의 국산화가 시급한 실정이다. 네스 팅작업은 적용되는 분야에 따라 요구사항과 구속조건이 달라지며 이로 인해 알고리즘과 자료구 조도 달라지게 되나 공통적인 목표는 주어진 영역안에서 겹침없이 배치하면서 버림율을 최소화 하는 것이다. 지난 10여년간 여러 산업의 응용분야에서는 네스팅시스템의 도입이 활발하게 이 루어지고 있는데 수동에 반자동 및 자동에 이르기까지 다양하나 자동네스팅시스템의 경우 배치 효율의 신뢰성이 비교적 부족하기 때문에 아직까지는 생산현장에서 기피하는 실정이다. 배치알 고리즘의 관점에서 볼 때 이러한 문제들은 NP-complete문제로 분류하며 제한된 시간안에 최적의 해를 구하기가 가능한 조합 최적화 문제로 알려져 있다. 따라서 이 글에서는 레이저 절단분야 에서의 네스팅시스템에 관한 개요와 최근의 연구동향 그리고 몇 가지 전형적인 네스팅 알고리 즘들을 소개하고 비교분석을 통해 개선점을 간략하게 논의하고자 한다.

Ni-5%Al alloy powder is widely used as the bond coating powder to improve the adhesive strength between the substrate and coating. The important properties in the bond coating are the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In this study, it was tried to optimize the plasma spray parameters to maximize the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In the first step, spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate were optimized in order to increase the deposition efficiency. In the next step, the seven plasma spray variables were selected and optimized to improve both the deposition efficiency and surface roughness using the Taguchi experimental method. By these optimization, the deposition efficiency was improved from about 10 % at the frist time to 51.2 % by the optimization of spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate and finally to 65.2 % by the Taguchi experimental method. The average surface roughness was increased from about $12.9\mu\textrm{m}$ to $15.4\mu\textrm{m}$.

In this study, it was tried to analyze the effects of welding parameters on the weld penetration and aspect ratio when a STS316L pipe was welded in a horizontal position by GTAW. Experiments were systematically designed using a L18 orthogonal array, and the effects of welding parameters were statistically analyzed by ANOVA(Analysis of Variance). The shielding gas type has the largest effect on both the penetration and aspect ratio. The welding current type and shielding gas flow rate have a little effect on the penetration, whereas the electrode tip angle has a little effect on the aspect ratio. When welded at a selected welding condition, which is composed of He shielding gas, pulse current of 300/45 A, electrode tip angle of 90o, and shielding gas flow rate of 30 l/min, the estimated interval at least 95 % confidence was $1.99{\pm}0.18mm$ for the penetration and $0.31{\pm}0.04$ for the aspect ratio. From the confirmation experiments, the average penetration and aspect ratio were well agreed with the estimation as 1.96 mm and 0.30, respectively. Additionally, the effects of the welding speed and welding current on the penetration and aspect ratio were experimented and analyzed by linear regression. The penetration was linearly increased with the decrease of the welding speed and with the increase of the welding current, but the aspect ratio showed a tendency to a little decrease with the increase of both the welding speed and current.
