In this paper, an ultrasonic phased array transducer with spherical liquid lens, which utilizes both electronic focusing by linear phased array and variable geometric focusing by spherical lens. is investigated. This system reduces the elevational beamwidth which is disadvantage of the 1-dimensional linear phased array, and adds real-time dynamic focusing capability by controlling the volume of liquid in the lens. A prototype of this transducer is constructed and tested. The experimental results are compared with those of computer simulations. The range of applications are in the hyperthermia applicators or ultrasonic image system with narrow beam and rapid scanning characterisitcs.

Optical disk is the media which is used generally in data storage device, but it has a disadvantage in the vibration by spinning and the shock. For overcoming these disadvantage, we must control the optical disk to minimize the focusing error and tacking error. The present study investigates the disk profile for minimizing the focusing error subjected to environmental shock and weight of the disk. In this study, the disk is assumed to be a cantilever beam to determine the disk profile for the minimum displacement as to the shock considering only the first mode. Also, for the optimally determined profile by ADS program this paper recalculate the robust caltilever profile by using orthogonal array and ANOM.

An orifice type of aerodynamic lens is generally used to focus nanoparticles. However, it is impossible to focus particles smaller than 10nm in air due to flow instability of fluid in a lens. In this study, we propose a new converging-diverging type of the aerodynamic lens capable of focusing particles of 5-50nm in air. Designing factors of the lens configurations is also extracted and explained in detail through a numerical simulation. It was demonstrated that the aerosols are delivered from the entrance to the downstream of the lens system with 90% transmission efficiency. The final beam diameters are shown to be more or less 1mm in the range of particle size.

This paper represents the construction of laser beam writing system, laser lithography, using new method that guarantees convenience and accuracy in laser focusing. The X, Y translation stage using DC motors was controlled by the computer. Minimum line width of 1.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ was obtained by the laser lithography system.

A microlens array (MLA) was developed based on the wet-etched quartz substrate and coating of UV adhesive on the substrate for maskless lithography application. The developed MLA has the focal length of ${\sim}45\;{\mu}m$ and the spot size of ${\sim}1\;{\mu}m$. The spot size of the focused beam passing through the MLA was detected by CCD camera, and its intensity was monitored by beam profiler. Uniform spots with nearly identical intensities were observed on the focal plane when a beam passes through the fabricated MLA. The focal length was varied depending on thickness of the coated UV adhesive. The thicker the thickness of the UV adhesive was, the shorter the focal length of the MLA was. With a general mask aligner, UV beam focusing was tested onto photoresist (PR). The beams were well focused onto PR when UV passes through the MLA. Depending on the variable distances from the MLA, beam sizes onto PR were controlled. Even at high temperature for a long time, the performances of the MLA were not changed.

Recent trends in the construction of long span or tall building frames feature the increase use of composite members that steel and concrete is functioning together in what terms of mixed structural systems. One of such systems, RCS (reinforced concrete column and steel beam) system is introduced and closely examined focusing on bearing strength of the composite joint in this paper. The main objective of this study was to develope detail to increase bearing capacity while bearing failure is one of the two primary modes of failure in RCS system. The results show that specimens with the U-type bearing reinforcement detail developed in this study enhanced the bearing strength by 1.20-1.50. The U-type reinforcement is the effective details to increase joint bearing strength compared to others like vertical reinforcement welded to beam flanges.

The laser Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) system is currently recognized as a leading process. Due to the various materials employed such as thermoplastic, metal and ceramic composite powder, the application's use extends to machinery, automobiles, and medical devices. The PBF system's surface quality of prototypes and processing time are significantly affected by several parameters such as laser power, laser beam size, heat temperature and laminate thickness. In order to develop a more elaborate and rapid system, this study developed a new PBF system and sintering process. It contains a 3-axis dynamic focusing scanner system that maintains a uniform laser beam size throughout the system unlike the $f{\theta}$ lens. In this study, experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of various laser scanning parameters and fabricating parameters on the fusion process, in addition to fabricating various 3D objects using a PA-12 starting material.
