FEF(Focused Electromagnetic Field) technique was newly developed that is based on the induction principle exciting electromagnetic field. The technique consists of an induction wire and a sensor for detecting electromagnetic field, and is applied in a non-contact mode. In this study, the technique was applied to the evaluation of EDM slits in some conductive materials - aluminum alloy, stainless steel and Inconel alloy. The voltage in the non-defect region is depended upon the measurement lift-off. The voltage signals on defects are measured with peak values, and the peak values changed with the depth of defects. The voltage distributions for all conductive materials are the same trend.

An engineering approach for estimating the stress intensity factors of a semi-elliptical crack is presented. An approximate 2-dimensional approach solution for semi-elliptical crack is derived in terms of simple equation, through weight function technique, by reflecting on the physical character of cracks.

Automatic inspection system is required for increment of copper plate production and demand expansion. Thus 3D surface form and defect detection of copper plate calls for 3D image and GUI analysis. Limitation of 2D analysis, such as error occurrence and decision difficulty makes eye inspection automatic. Automatic inspection is able to raise accurate inspection rate and productivity efficiency elevation. In this paper defect classification is defined and inspection system is implemented. Defect analysis algorithms and GUI for 3D image analysis is developed and tested.

그래핀은 2차원 물질으로서 전기적, 열적으로 독특한 성질로 인해 주목받고 있으며, 전 세계적으로 많은 연구가 진행 되었다. 그러나 그래핀은 밴드갭이 없을 뿐 아니라 2차원물질로서 표면에 화학적 도핑하는 기술이 정립되지 않아 인해 전기적 소자에 적용하기 어려운 문제가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 질소 유도 결합 플라즈마를 이용하여 대면적의 그래핀을 n형 도핑시키는 연구를 진행하였다. 또한 CVD-그래핀에서의 도핑 메커니즘을 규명하기 위해, AFM, Raman, XPS 에 의한 화학적 분석을 시도하였다. 뿐만 아니라 메탄($CH_4$) 플라즈마를 이용하여 CVD-그래핀의 결함을 탄소로 채워서 결함밀도를 감소시키는 연구도 수행하였다.

Aiming at nondestructive evaluation of defect with high accuracy and resolution, ICFPD(Induced Current Focusing Potential Drop) technique was newly developed. This technique can be applied for locating and sizing of defects in components with not only simple shape such as plain surface but also more complex shape and geometry such as curved surface and dissimilar joing. This paper describes the principle of ICFPD technique and also the results of 2-dimensional surface crack in ferromagnetic metal(A508 Cl. III steel) and paramagnetic metal (pure aluminum and stainless 304 steel) measured by this technique. Results are that surface defects in each specimen are detected with the difference of potential drop, and potential drops are distributed a similar shape for each metal and each depth. The normalized potential drop ( $V_{\delta}$2/$^{t}$ / $V_{{\delta} 2}$$^{-1}$) max. in the vicinity of defect is varied with the depth of defect. Therefore, ICFPD technique can be used for the evaluation of defect not only in ferromagnetic metal but also in paramagnetic steel..

Micro-defects induced by design and production failure or working environments are known as the cause of SCC(Stress Corrosion Cracking) in aged structures. Therefore, the evaluation of structural integrity based on micro-cracks is required not only a manufacturing step but also in-service term. So we introduce a new nondestructive inspection method using the magneto-optical film to detect micro-cracks. The method has some advantage such as high testing speed, real time data acquistion and the possibility of remote sensing by using of a magneto-optical film that takes advantage of the change of magnetic domains and domain walls. This paper introduces the concept of the new nondestructive inspection method using the magneto-optical film, also proves the possibility of this method as a remote testing system under oscillating load considering application on real fields by applying the method to four types of specimens.

New nondestructive inspection (NDI) technique to detect the defect in metal was developed in which an electromagnetic field is induced in a metal by AC current flowing in the magnetic coil and the leak magnetic-flux disturbed by defects is measured using a tape-recorder head with air gap. This technique can be applied in evaluating the location and sizing of surface defects in components of the ferromagnetic body by means of the non-contacting measurement. In this paper, we have applied this technique to the evaluation of two-dimensional surface cracks in ferromagnetic metal, and also investigated the influence of the various frequencies and lift-off. Defects were detected with maximum values in the distribution of voltage and it was found that the maximum values tend to increase with the defect depth. Although the maximum values for defects are affected by the frequency and lift-off, the depth of small defects can be estimated from the linear relationship between the depth and voltage rate$(V_0/V_{ave})$.

A system for diagnosing surface defects of long and large pipe inner overlay welds, 1m in diameter and 6m in length, was developed using a Liquid Penetrant Test (PT). First, CATIA was used to model all major units and PT machines in 3-dimensions. They were used for structural strength analysis and strain analysis, and to check the motion interference phenomenon of each unit to produce two-dimensional production drawings. Structural strength analysis and deformation analysis using the ANSYS results in a maximum equivalent stress of 44.901 MPa, which is less than the yield tensile strength of SS400 (200 MPa), a material of the PT Machine. An examination of the performance of the developed equipment revealed a maximum travel speed of 7.2 m/min., maximum rotational speed of 9 rpm, repeatable position accuracy of 1.2 mm, and inspection speed of $1.65m^2/min$. The results of the automatic PT-inspection system developed to check for surface defects, such as cracks, porosity, and undercut, were in accordance with the method of ASME SEC. V&VIII. In addition, the results of corrosion testing of the overlay weld layer in accordance with the ferric chloride fitting test by the method of ASME G48-11 indicated that the weight loss was $0.3g/m^2$, and met the specifications. Furthermore, the chemical composition of the overlay welds was analyzed according to the method described in ASTM A375-14, and all components met the specifications.

Fatigure crack growth from surface defects is one of the most important subjects for the evaluation and the assurance of safety in pressure vessels, piping systems, ship hulls and other various structures. This paper attempts to analysis some practical or general problems such as the estimation of crack growth life to penetrate the plate thickness, based on fatigure crack growth from a single surface flaw and the interaction of multiple flaws. An experiment on the coalescence of multiple undercuts was carried out under cyclic tension condition as a attempt to the analysis of multiple crack problems. It is noted that the fracture strength is characterized by the analogy to that in a single crack growth.

파이프 용접은 중력의 영향으로 인하여 위치에 따라 같은 용접변수라도 비드 형상이 매우 달라 지게 된다. 또한 지금까지 많은 용접 기술자들이 위험하고 까다로운 환경에서 수작업으로 용접을 실행하였다. 따라서 이러한 이유로 용접 자동화 공정이 반드시 필요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 FCAW를 사용하여 파이프 모재 대신 필릿 평판을 아래보기, 위보기 자세를 포함하여 9개 자세에서 실행하였다. 용접 자세를 비롯한 용접 변수와 비드 형상 변수간의 관계를 비선형 회귀 분석과 구간적 3차 에르미트 보간법을 이용하여 주어진 용접 변수에서의 비드 단면의 형상을 예측하고, 비드의 결함 유무를 파악하였다. 이러한 방법을 통하여 자세에 따라서 용접 결함이 없는 용접 변수를 구할 수 있었다. 시각센서를 이용하여 용접 후 비드 형상에 대해 모니터링을 실시하였다. 모니터링의 알고리즘은 영상획득, 이진화, 세선화, 적응형 미디언 필터링, 적응형 허프 변환, 용접 결함 검출의 순서로 구성되어 있으며, 본 연구에서는 보다 빠른 영상처리를 위하여 적응형 미디언 필터링을 제시하였다. 모니터링을 통하여 2차원 비드 단면뿐만 아니라, 디루니 삼각법을 적용하여 3차원으로 비드 표면을 표현할 수 있다. 보간법을 사용하여 얻은 비드 형상과 시각 센서를 통하여 얻은 비드 형상간의 비교를 통하여 본 연구의 적합성 여부를 확인하였다.
