In this study, a hybrid powder-extrusion process involving the control of temperature dwelling time for improving the formability of Zn-22Al powder was developed and the effect of dwelling time on the mechanical properties of a spur gear with a pitch circle having a diameter of 1.8 mm was investigated. General extrusion experiments were carried out at different temperatures such as 290, 300, and $310^{\circ}C$. Spur gears with good qualities and without any surface defects were obtained in the case of extrusion temperature of $310^{\circ}C$ and ball-milling duration of 32 h. The Vickers hardness distribution was non-uniform, and after the sintering process, an internal crack was generated because of the different deformation energy between gear central part and teeth. To overcome the abovementioned problems, research on controlling the dwelling time of the extrusion temperature in the powder-extrusion process was carried out. Good-quality spur gears were obtained when the dwelling time was 15 min.

서론: 최근 전세계적인 고령화 진행에 따른 뇌졸중, 파킨슨병, 알츠하이머병 등과 같은 각종 뇌관련 질환에 대한 관심이 더욱 높아지고 있으며 다양한 뇌질환 치료를 위하여 뇌 신경 신호의 정확한 검출 대한 연구가 학계에서 활발히 진행되고 있다. 효과적인 뇌 신경 신호 검출을 위해서는 세포조직의 손상을 최소화 할 수 있는 초소형 신경탐침 및 극소 면적내에서 극대화된 검출 전극이 구현되어야 한다. 그러나, 극소 면적내에 구성된 소면적 전극을 통한 신호 검출은 전극 계면에서의 높은 임피던스를 야기시켜 정밀한 신경신호 검출에 어려움을 만든다. 따라서, 뇌 신경 신호 검출시 전극 계면에서의 낮은 임피던스를 검출하기 위한 다결정실리콘, 이리듐 산화막, 탄소나노튜브와 같은 다양한 전극 소재를 이용한 신경탐침 연구가 제안되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 극소화된 전극면적과 신경세포 계면에서의 저 임피던스 신경신호 검출을 위하여 비이온성 계면활성제와 전해도금을 이용하여 높은 거칠기값을 갖는 나노동공 백금층을 검출 전극으로 활용하였다. 실험 결과: 제작된 신경탐침의 몸체는 실리콘으로 이루어지며, 탐침 끝단에는 신호 측정을 위한 나노동공 백금층을 갖는 전극들이 집적되어 있다. Fig. 1 는 제작된 나노동공 백금을 갖는 신경탐침의 이미지 (a), SEM (b), TEM (c), FESEM (d) 측정결과를 보여준다. 0.9 %의 NaCl 용액에서 제작된 신경탐침의 계면임피던스 및 위상각 변화에 대한 측정결과가 Fig. 2에 나타나 있다. 1.2 kHz 주파수에서 $942.6K{\Omega}$ ($0.029{\Omega}cm^2$, $3.14{\mu}m^2$)로 극대화된 실표면적을 갖는 나노동공 백금층에 의하여 매우 낮은 임피던스 특성을 보인 것으로 판단된다. 또한 제작된 신경탐침은 위상각이 $-82.9^{\circ}$로서 캐패시터와 같은 역할을 하고 있다고 예상할 수 있었으며 $4.6mFcm^{-2}$의 축전용량값을 보였다. Fig. 3는 1 M의 황산용액에서 나노동공백금층이 형성된 신경탐침 전극과 형성 전의 전기화학적 표면변화를 비교분석한 결과로서 나노동공 백금층의 형성 전/후의 전류응답 특성이 상이하게 나타났다. 나노동공 백금층의 실표면적 극대화로 인한 전류응답수치 또한 크게 향상 되었으며, 0~-0.25 V 영역에서의 수소 흡착에 따른 환원곡선은 전형적인 백금 특성을 보여주는 결과로 판단 할 수 있다. Table 1는 기존에 연구되었던 신경탐침들과 본 연구에서 제작된 나노동공 백금을 갖는 신경탐침의 임피던스와 캐패시턴스 특성을 비교한 결과이다. 결론: 본 연구에서는 실리콘 신경탐침 끝단에 집적된 전극상에 전해도금법을 이용하여 높은 거칠기값을 갖는 나노동공 백금층을 형성하고 전극 계면상의 낮은 임피던스를 검출을 하였다. 나노동공 백금층을 갖는 신경탐침은 순환전압전류법을 통해 극대화된 실표면적을 극대화를 확인할 수 있었으며, 극대화된 검출 전극면은 저 임피던스 측정에 용이함을 실험을 통해서 증명할 수 있었다. 따라서, 높은 거칠기값의 나노동공 백금층은 초소형화된 신경탐침상에 집적되는 전극면적소형화와 다수의 전극 구현에 효과적일 것으로 판단되며 보다 정확한 신경신호 검출을 통한 뇌질환의 명확한 이해에 유망할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to choose alternative environmental-friendly cleaning agents, it is very important in the present point that the systematic selection procedures should be introduced and applied to the industry through the evaluation of their cleaning ability, environmental characteristics, and economical factors, and that the objective and effective evaluation methods of cleanliness should be established for the industry. Thus, a novel cleaning evaluation method utilizing optically stimulated electron emission (OSEE) among various methods of cleaning ability was studied in this study. The contaminants used in this cleaning experiments were flux, solder, grease, cutting oil, and mixed soil of 35% grease and 65% cutting oil. The cleaning agents developed or prepared in our laboratory were employed and their cleaning ability were comparatively evaluated by the OSEE, gravimetry and contact angle methods. The experimental results in this work showed that flux cleaning efficiency measured by the OSEE method was similar to that of the gravimetric method, but that the OSEE method could not be compared with gravimetric method for the case of solder or grease cleaning because the contaminants radiate or absorb ultra-violet light. In case of cutting oil cleaning, the gravimetric method indicated its limitation of cleaning efficiency of cutting oil since it showed cleaning efficiency of 100%, even though residual soil remaining on the substrate surface a little after its cleaning. The comparative experimental results of cleaning ability evaluated by the OSEE- and contact angle measurement methods showed that they were similar in case of cleaning of flux, mixed soil and cutting oil. It was judged that the contact angle measurement method could evaluate the cleaning ability more precisely than the OSEE method for cleaning solder and grease.

Cultural assets restoration is being considered highly as a practical way to extend the lifespan of damaged cultural assets and re-highlight their value. However, restoration process has been mostly dependent on the manual work involving the experience and skill of a person performing restoration, thereby requiring much time and effort. In recent, it became possible to apply a method allowing restoration to be performed more accurately and easily according to the material characteristics and shape of cultural assets. Namely, it is to use a method of printing out the 3D shape data computed in computer as real object by using 3D printer for the restoration that has been performed manually. The missing part of a cultural asset is computed into computer data first and is printed out by using 3D printer to undergo a simple shaping process. The result of 3D printer application showed that repetitive output and shape and figure revision of digital data were possible, and it was possible to improve the degree of completedness of restoration through test output using various types of restoration materials using various materials. For the purpose of verifying the possibility of applying 3D printer to restore missing part of earthenware, two pieces of modern reproductions, namely, the Seven Treasure Incense Burner and Earthenware with Wagon Wheel Decoration, were artificially damaged. The restoration result showed that compared to manual work, it showed better effectiveness in curtailing work time and reproducing accurate shape. On the other hand, secondary manual work was slightly needed for detailed binding and to vividly express surface texture.

With the recent development of various kinds of virtual reality devices, there has been an active research effort to increase the sense of reality by recognizing the physical behavior of users rather than by classical user input methods. Among such devices, the Leap Motion controller recognizes the user's hand gestures and can realistically trace the user's hand in a virtual reality environment. However, manipulating an object in virtual reality using a recognized user's hand often causes the hand to pass through the object, which should not occur in the real world. This study presents a way to build a visual feedback system for enhancing the user's sense of interaction between hands and objects in virtual reality. In virtual reality, the user's hands are examined precisely by using a ray tracing method to see if the virtual object collides with the user's hand, and when any collision occurs, visual feedback is given through the process of reconstructing the user's hand by moving the position of the end of the user's fingers that enter the object through sign distance field and reverse mechanics. This enables realistic interaction in virtual reality in real time.

Core-shell structured $BaTiO_3$ powders were produced via nano-coating of $Cr_2O_3$ and $Mn_2O_3$ to barium titanate powder system for MLCCs. From preliminary experiments, the optimal solution reaction condition employing using $KMnO_4$, $K_2Cr_2O_4$ and sulfur was established. Not only powders of $Cr_2O_3$ and $Mn_2O_3$ were synthesized but also their coating on $BaTiO_3$ powders were peformed under the same reaction condition. The coating was carried out in two ways, one-step and two-step, and its results were characterized for comparison. Conclusively speaking, two oxide additives were coated onto the $BaTiO_3$ powder surface with high quality and excellent reaction yield even under mild condition, which indicates that the contents as well as the properties of additive shell layer can be precisely controlled with rather ease.

The purpose of this study is to propose the construction of a visibility analysis model, which is the basis of the analysis for landscape management on the heritage sites such as historic villages and scenic sites. Results of the visibility analysis using DEM and the visibility analysis of DSM based on 3D mapping data are compared as follows: Precision level of the extracted data was confirmed to be less than 6.5cm, based on RTK survey results produced by constructing orthoimage data and DSM from the digital data of 2cm-class GSD(Ground Sample Distance) obtained by using a small UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). As a result of comparing the visibility analysis data of Digital Surface Model (DSM) using a small UAV with Digital Elevation Model(DEM) applying the height of the building to the Digital Topographic Map, it was confirmed that more realistic visibility analysis can be accomplished by applying DSM, as the structures such as fences, trees, and houses are reflected in the topographic data. The visibility analysis model using the 3D mapping technique can efficiently obtain the constantly changing topographic information when needed, by immediately constructing the data by utilizing a small UAV. It seems to be possible to propose a reasonable analysis result for preservation management such as landscape evaluation of cultural property.

Seated Amitabha Triad at Muwisa Temple (Treasure No. 1312) had been known as wooden Buddha statue, but a precise safety inspection revealed that the statue is terracotta Buddha statue made with clay. The clay layer of Amitabha Triad was conserved due to its severe damage. In this study, experiments were conducted to produce the most appropriate filler for the conservation treatment of the seated Amitabha Triad. Mixed clay samples with various ratios were produced and surface hardening state, crack, color change, and shrinkage of the samples during dry process were measured. Loess, fine sand powder, and cotton were used to produce the mixed clay for the filler with six different ratios and then 12 different concentration glues made with glutinous rice glue, Pachymeniopsis Elliptica glue, and animal glue were added as adhesives. Total 72 types of samples were prepared and comparative study was conducted. As a result, when the mixed clay contains 2.5% cotton compared to the weight per cent of loess and fine sand powder and also loess and fine sand in the mixed clay have a 15:1 ratio, the mixed clay had the lowest shrinkage. Animal glue is considered as an appropriate glue since it had small color change, low physical property change and shringkage. Therefore, mixed clay (loess:fine sand=15:1) mixed with 15ml animal glue is likely to be a suitable filler for conservation treatment of the seated amitabha triad at the Muwisa Temple.

This study was focused on the investigation of filtration characteristics of membrane-coupled fermentor system for dissolved organics recovery from liquid organic sludge. On the filterability of MF over the range of $0.1{\sim}5 {\mu}m,$ the magnitude of total membrane resistance ($R_t$) is ranged as follows in the order; $0.1 {\mu}m>0.2{\mu}m>0.5 >1{\mu}m>2{\mu}m>5{\mu}m$. The cake layer resistance ($R_c$) occupied about 68~88% of total resistance with fermented sludge. Permeation flux decline was mainly attributed to the $R_c$, which was formed by a strong deposition from physico-chemical interactions of solids on membrane surface. Higher suspended solids (SS) concentration of suspension caused lower permeation flux. However, there was not a proportion relation beyond a certain SS concentration. The cross-flow velocity on the membrane surface was faster, which resulted in the higher permeation flux and also more efficient with low trans membrane pressure (TMP) in viewpoint of energy efficiency. The appropriate pH of suspension was over the range of 5.0~6.0 for dissolved organics recovery as well as the permeation flux. It is possible f3r bacteria to be separated perfectly with $0.1{\mu}m\; and \;0.2{\mu}m$ membrane pore size. Based on experimental results, most appropriate membrane pore size for the recovery is believed to around $1{\mu}m$.

형광체를 조명과 디스플레이 산업에 응용하기 위해서는 충분히 밝은 빛을 제공하는 형광체의 발광 세기가 중요한 변수이다. 이러한 발광 특성은 주로 모체 격자에 도핑 되는 활성제의 농도, 입자의 형상과 크기 분포의 균일성, 결정성에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 Ca2SiO4 모체 결정에 도핑한 활성제 Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온의 농도를 변화시키면서 고상 반응법을 사용하여 높은 발광 효율을 갖는 Ca2-1.5xSiO4::Eux3+ 적색 형광체와 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 백색 형광체를 합성하였다. 특히, 활성제 Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온 농도의 변화가 형광체의 결정 구조, 소성 온도, 입자의 표면 형상, 광학 스펙트럼의 발광 효율에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 최적의 합성 조건을 결정하였으며, 회절 신호의 반치폭과 발광 세기의 상호 관계를 조사하였다. Ca2-1.5xSiO4::Eux3+와 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 형광체 초기 분말 시료는 CaO (99.9% 순도), SiO2 (99.9%), Dy2O3 (99.9%)와 Eu2O3 (99.9%)인 화학 물질을 구입하여 초정밀 저울로 화학양론적으로 측정하였다. 이때 Eu와 Dy의 함량비는 x=0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2 mol로 변화 시키면서 합성하였다. Ca2-1.5xSiO4: Dyx3+ 형광체 분말 시료의 경우에 소결 온도를 각각 $1000^{\circ}C$와 $1100^{\circ}C$로 달리하여 흡광과 발광 스펙트럼의 세기를 비교해 본 결과, 서로 다른 두 소결 온도에서 합성한 두 형광체 분말은 동일하게 Dy3+의 몰 비가 0.05 mol일 때 주 발광 스펙트럼의 세기는 최대값을 나타내었다. 파장 355 nm로 여기시킨 Dy3+ 함량비에 따른 Ca2-1.5xSiO4:Dyx3+ 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼은 Dy3+ 함량비에 관계 없이 581 nm에서 가장 강한 황색 발광을 보였다. 함량비가 증가함에 따라 발광 스펙트럼의 변화가 관측되었는데, Dy3+의 몰 비가 0.01 mol~0.05 mol인 영역에서는 발광 세기가 증가하여 0.05 mol에서 최대를 나타내다가 Dy3+의 몰 비가 더욱 증가함에 따라 발광세기는 현저히 감소하는 경향을 나타내었는데, 이 현상은 농도 소광 현상으로 해석 할 수 있다. 이외에도, Eu3+와 Dy3+ 이온의 함량비와 소결 온도가 결정 입자의 크기와 흡광 스펙트럼에 미치는 결과를 조사하였다.
