A $50{\times}50{\mu}m^2$ aluminum micromirror array is fabricated using surface micromachining technology. $50{\times}50$ micromirrors are arrayed two dimensionally. The micromirror plate is supported by a vertical spring structure that is placed underneath the mirror plate. When the mirror plates reflect a light, the micromirror array un have large effective reflecting area. Fabrication of vertical spring uses only one mask and shadow evaporation process.

이 논문에서는 소형 정찰 UAV의 동력원으로 연료전지 시스템을 적용하기 위해, 기존의 흑연 분리판을 대체할 수 있는 가벼운 알루미늄 분리판을 제시하였다. 분리판은 연료전지 시스템 전체 무게의 80% 이상을 점유하므로, 경량의 알루미늄 분리판은 연료전지 UAV의 유효 탑재량과 항속 시간을 증가시킬 수 있다. 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 흑연 재질의 분리판과 성능을 비교 및 평가하기 위해 알루미늄과 흑연 분리판을 제작하였으며, 알루미늄 분리판의 성능이 흑연 분리판에 비해 약 15% 이상 증가하였음을 확인하였다. 또한, 실제 소형 정찰 UAV에 적용하기 위한 기초 연구로써 알루미늄 분리판을 이용한 단전지의 성능을 다양한 운전조건에서 측정하였다.

It was investigated that two plates of aluminum can be welded by hot extru-shear welding process with extru-shear welding dies, and that the welding strength and metal flow on the welding section were analyzed by computer simulation according to the welding variables such as inclined angle of cutter and overlapped length of plates and temperature of plates. It was known by computer simulation that welding strength on the welding section of plates could be influenced by the inclined angle of cutter and overlapped length of plates and temperature of plates. And it was known by experiments that two plates of aluminum can be welded on the end sections by hot extru-shear welding process using extru-shear welding dies, and that welding strength is the highest when inclined angle of dies is $70^{\circ}$, and overlapped length is 1.2 mm, and temperature is $520^{\circ}$, when aluminum 5052 two plates with 1.6 mm thickness are used as welding material.

Conventionally, Al-Sn bearing manufacturing involves casting the Al-Sn alloy and roll-bonding to a steel backing strip. This article will describe the microstructural control of Al-Sn metal bearing alloy following heat treatment. When the pure aluminum rod dipped in the melt of tin maintained below the melting point of aluminum, the melting of aluminum was accelerated with penetration of tin along the grain boundary of aluminum. The length of plate-shaped eutectic tin was decreased with heat treatment time. With even longer heat treatment time over 1 hour the length of eutectic tin didn't decrease any more, while resulting in coarsening of aluminum matrix. Exuded liquid of eutectic tin was formed at the surface of Al-Sn alloy after heat treatment even at below eutectic temperature.

Aluminum foams sandwich panel (AFSP) has been used in engineering field, where cyclic loading is used in most of the applications. In this paper, the fatigue life of AFSP prepared by the bonding method was investigated through a three-point bending test. The mathematical statistics method was used to analyze the influence of different plate thicknesses and core densities on the bending fatigue life. The macroscopic fatigue failure modes and damage mechanisms were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that panel thickness and core layer density have a significant influence on the bending fatigue life of AFSP and their dispersion. The damage mechanism of fatigue failure to cells in aluminum foam is that the initial fatigue crack begins the cell wall, the thinnest position of the cell wall or the intersection of the cell wall and the cell ridge, where stress concentrations are more likely to occur. The fatigue failure of aluminum foam core usually starts from the semi-closed unit of the lower layer, and the fatigue crack propagates layer by layer along the direction of the maximum shear stress. The results can provide a reference for the practical engineering design and application of AFSP.

The plate waves propagating in thin plates have dispersive nature showing the dependence of velocities on the frequency. Wavelet transform (WT) using Gabor function can be used to analyze the dispersive waves in the time-frequency domain, and then to find the arrival time of the waves propagating in the plate. Plate waves in the aluminum plate of 3 mm thickness were identified and generated by pencil lead breaks and the lowest order symmetric ($S_o$) and antisymmetric ($A_o$) modes were analyzed by the WT method. The measured group velocities agreed very well with theoretical predictions in the frequency range of 50-400 kHz. The pencil breaks were also used to simulate acoustic emission sources in the plate, and the source location algorithm using the wavelet transform of dispersive plate waves was found to give accurate results.

The purpose of this research is to develop high efficiency plastic plate heat exchangers which can be substituted for conventional aluminum plate heat exchangers. Four simulation models of plastic plate heat exchangers are designed and simulated: that is, flat plate type, turbulent promoter type, corrugate type and dimple type heat exchanger. The flat plate type is designed as the reference model in order to evaluate how much thermal performance increases. The turbulent promoter type is fabricated with cylindrical-type vortex generators and rib-type turbulent promoters. The corrugate type is obtained from the conventional stainless steel compact heat exchangers, which are called the herringbone-type compact heat exchangers. The dimple type has a number of dimples on its surface. In this study, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the plastic plate heat exchanger are investigated using numerical simulation and compared with experimental results. Numerical simulation is carried out using the FLUENT code. The flows are assumed as a three-dimensional, incompressible and turbulent model. The computational analysis and experimental results both show that the friction coefficient and Nu number is highest in the corrugate type. The tendency of numerical simulation results is in good agreement with that of the experimental results.

The present experimental study investigates the impact of porous fins on the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics in plate-fin heat exchangers. Systematic experiments have been carried out in a simplified model of a plate-porous fin heat exchanger at a controlled test environment. Comparison of performance between the porous fins and the conventional louvered fins has been made. The experimental results indicate that friction and heat transfer rate are significantly affected by permeability as well as porosity of the porous fin. The porous fins used in the present study show a similar air-side performance to the louvered fin. The correlations of friction and modified j-factor are also given for the design of the plate-porous fin heat exchanger.

Vibration control of a plate using an optical fiber sensor and a PZT actuator is considered in this study. An aluminum plate with attached Extrinsic Fabry-Perot Interferometer (EFPI) and PZT actuator is prepared for experimental investigation. Vibration level of EFPI that can represent the mechanical strain without severe distortion is validated by forced vibration experiment. A numerical model of the plate is constructed based on the experimentally obtained frequency responses, and an optimal controller is designed for the multi-modal vibration suppression. It is found that the vibration level of the first three modes can be greatly reduced. The effect of low-pass filtering used to eliminate high frequency noise on the stability and control performance is also considered.

One of the most important things in shipbuilding is to select light and high tensile strength materials. Therefore, the use of Al alloy in shipbuilding become an increase. In cutting the aluminum plate, the quality of the cut surface is strongly influenced by the cutting conditions such as cutting speed, kerf width, plate thickness, cutting materials, and applied gas pressure. The cutting experiment of Al alloy plate(5083) were carried out using LASER cutting machine. The upper and lower of kerf width, the surface roughness(Ra, Rmax) of cut surface were measured under various cutting conditions. The morphologies of cutting surface were also monitored at various cutting conditions. The optimum cutting conditions of Al alloy among tested were indicated.
