In this work the replacement material for magnesium alloy was investigated and an optimized design was suggested for the horizontal fin of a fighter's external fuel tank. For the replacement of magnesium alloy, Aluminum alloy, AL 2034-T351, was selected by considering material properties and its procurement. The strength and fracture toughness properties of AL 2034-T351 are stronger than those of magnesium alloy, but the specific weight of AL 2034-T351 is heavier than that of magnesium alloy by 65%. To meet the allowable limit of C.G. shift in the tank, the design of horizontal fin was optimized by reducing the original shape by 20% and resizing the maximum thickness to 7 mm. From the results of the static and dynamic stress analysis for improving the safety factor of the joint section and the joint hole, the radius of curvature in the aft joint section of the new fin was designed as 8.5mm.

Effect of the pin radius on the radiation characteristics of a patch antenna with a pin array inserted between a patch and ground plane is investigated. As the pin radius increases, the resonant frequency increases and the radiation intensity in the horizontal plane decreases. However, the radiation intensity in the horizontal plane increases for the pin radius larger than a certain value.

A pin fin with variable fin base thickness is optimized based on the ratio of heat loss to the maximum heat loss using a two-dimensional analytic method. The temperature profile along the normalized radius position in the fin is presented. For fixed fin outer radius, the optimum heat loss, fin length and efficiency as a function of fin base thickness, outer radius, convection characteristic numbers ratio and ambient convection characteristic number are presented. One of the results shows that the effect of fin outer radius and ambient convection characteristic number on the optimum fin length is remarkable.

This study performed stress and fatigue life analysis of the damping hinge of a built-in side-by-side refrigerator that occurs when the door is opened to the maximum angle. An analysis of the initial design showed that stress concentration occurred at the corner between the cylinder and upper disk of the bracket pin, and the maximum stress exceeded the yield strength. The maximum stress location and the calculated fatigue life were consistent with the door opening-and-closing endurance test results for a prototype. Three cases of design improvement for the bracket pin were derived with the aim of reducing the stress concentration that appeared in the initial design. An analysis of the cases showed that inserting a fillet between the disk and the cylinder of the bracket pin reduced the stress and increased the fatigue life. Moreover, changing the disk into two steps was more favorable. In conclusion, the best design improvement was the case that the disk was changed to two steps and the fillet with a large radius was inserted. In that case, the stress was the smallest and the fatigue life was infinite.

In this experiment, we investigated the performance of two types of heat sink, swaged- and extruded-type, used in the inverter of industrial electricity generator. The swaged-type heat sink has 62 fins, and the extruded-type has 38 fins having the same dimension as that of the swaged-type. But the extruded-type heat sink maintains the same heat transfer area by the laterally waved surface which has 1 mm in radius. As a result, the swaged- and extruded-type heat sinks released 70.7% and 63.8% of the heat incoming to the heat sink, respectively. The other incoming heat were naturally convected and radiated to the ambient. In spite of 40% decrease in number of fins, the heat release performance of the extruded-type heat sink was lowered only 6.9% than that of the swaged-type. We believe that, this shows the increment of effective heat transfer area by the laterally waved surface of fins and the better heat transfer property of the extruded-type heat sink.

기원전 5000년 이집트에서부터 시작된 도금은 시간이 지남에 따라 점점 발전하여, 1900년대에 들어 전기를 이용한 도금공정이 개발되었고, 현재 뿌리산업으로써 각종 제조업에 널리 이용되고 있다. 도금 공정은 금속을 부식으로부터 보호하고, 제품의 심미성과 기능성, 생산성 등을 높이기 위해 주로 이용된다. 전주도금 공정은 완벽하게 동일한 형태의 생산품을 다량으로 제작 할 수 있기 때문에, 그 높은 생산성으로 주목 받고 있다. 특히, 나노/마이크로 크기의 정밀 소자 등을 가공하는 차세대 기술인 LIGA공정과 접목이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 몰드를 이용하여 복제하는 방식인 전주 도금은 도금공정이 끝난 후 몰드와 완성된 제품을 분리해내는 추가공정이 필연적으로 발생하게 되는데, 둘 사이의 접착력을 낮추기 위하여 몰드의 표면에 이형박리제를 도포하게 된다. 이형박리제로는 전기가 잘 흐르면서 접착력이 낮은 이산화 셀렌이나 중크롬산이 주로 이용되지만, 원활한 박리를 위해서는 그 두께가 30 um 이상 확보되어야 하기 때문에 정밀한 미세구조 전주도금이 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 또한 이와 같은 화학 약품들은 매우 유독하기 때문에 추가적인 폐수 처리 공정이 필요하며, 작업자의 안전을 위협하고 심각한 환경 오염을 초래한다는 추가적인 문제가 발생한다. 따라서, 매우 얇고 친 환경적이며 안전한 전주도금 이형박리제에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전주도금 몰드로 사용한 구리의 표면에 TCVD를 이용하여 단일 층 그래핀을 성장시킨 후, 그래핀이 코팅된 몰드에 구리를 전주도금하여 박리하였다. 박리 후 그래핀은 몰드에 손상 없이 남아있는 것을 Raman microscopy를 통해서 확인하였고, 몰드와 그래핀 사이의 접착력 (약 $0.71J/m^2$)에 비해 그래핀과 전주도금 샘플간에 낮은 접착력 (약 $0.52J/m^2$)을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같이 낮은 접착력을 통해 박리 시 표면구조의 손상 없이 정밀한 구조의 미세 패턴구조를 형성할 수 있었다. 전주도금을 이용한 전극 형성과 고분자와의 융합을 통해 유연기판을 제작하여 bending 실험을 진행하였다. $90^{\circ}$의 bending 각도로 10000회 이하에서는 저항의 변화가 없었고, LED chip을 mounting한 후 곡률반경 4.5 mm까지 bending을 진행하여도 이상 없이 LED가 발광하는 것을 확인하였다. 위와 같은 전주도금 공정을 이용하여 고집적 전자기기, 광학기기, 센서기기 등의 다양한 어플리케이션의 부품제조에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

To develope chemical heat pump using available energy sources such as solar heat and many kinds of waste thermal energy we have studied the enhancement effect of inserted fins in cylindical packed bed reactor. Two dimensionnal(radial and circumferential) partial differential eqaetions, concerning heat and masstransfer in CaO packed bad, are solved numerically to describe the characteristics of the reaction of fins inserted reactor and heat transfer. The results obtained by numerical analysis about two dimensional profiles of temperature and conversion in the reactant in the packed bed and exothermic heat amount released from the reactor are follows; -. The insertion of fins in reactor can redue the reaction completion time by half. -. The rate of thermochemical reaction depends of the temperature and concentration and it is also governed by the boundary conditions and heat transfer rate in the particle packed bed.

This paper presents an investigation into the pinhead forming process with the objective of finding the optimal forming conditions. In order to this, the orbital forming analysis of a heading MIG was carried out using the explicit finite element method. Relationships between temperature by forming of load and stresses, rake angle by forming final shape and stress distribution were investigated through analysises in order to find an efficient solution. As a result, the higher temperature and orbital rake angle were the better forming conditions.

In this paper, temperature distributions in radial fin of rectangular profile for steady-state with no heat generation are obtained by one-dimensional analytical method, finite difference method and experiment respectively. Heat flow rate and fin efficiency from the fin model are obtained by analytical method. Consequently, temperature distributions in radial fin can certify that are similar to exact solution. From theoretical analysis, the effects according to heat flow rate and fin efficiency are related to variation of parameters which are fin thickness ${\delta}_o$, fin base temperature $T_o$, thermal conductivity K with same basic dimensions and the effects are studied and compared.

Interfacial durability and electrical properties of CNT, ITO or xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposites were investigated for acoustic actuator applications. The xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposite exhibited better electrical conductivity than CNT and ITO case due to the unique electrical property of xGnP, and this nanocomposite also showed good sound characteristics. Interfacial adhesion durability between either neat CNT or plasma treated CNT and plasma treated PVDF were measured by static contact angle, surface energy, work of adhesion, and spreading coefficient tests. The optimum acoustic actuation performance of xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposite was measured using sound level meter with changing radius of curvature and coating conditions. As compared to CNT and ITO, the xGnP was known as more appropriate acoustic actuator due to the characteristic electrical property. It is the most appropriate condition when the radius of curvature is 15 degree. Although sound characteristics were different with various coating thicknesses, it is possible to manufacture transparent actuator with good sound quality.
