In this paper, we investigate the statistical correlation of the time series for temperature measured at the heat box in the automobile drying process. We show, in terms of the sample variance, that a significant non-linear correlation exists in the time series that consist of absolute temperature changes. To investigate further the non-linear correlation, we utilize the volatility, an important concept in the financial market, and induce volatility time series from absolute temperature changes. We analyze the time series of volatilities in terms of the de-trended fluctuation analysis (DFA), a method especially suitable for testing the long-range correlation of non-stationary data, from the correlation perspective. We uncover that the volatility exhibits a long-range correlation regardless of the window size. We also analyze the cross correlation between two (inlet and outlet) volatility time series to characterize any correlation between the two, and disclose the dependence of the correlation strength on the time lag. These results can contribute as important factors to the modeling of forecasting and management of the heat box's temperature.

Disassembly is a fundamental process needed for component reuse and material recycling in all assembled products. Integral attachments, also known as 'snap' fits, are favored fastening means in design for assembly (DFA) methodologies, but not necessarily a favored choice for design for disassembly. In this paper, design methods of a new class of integral attachments are proposed, where the snapped joints can be disengaged by the application of localized heat sources. The design problem of reversible integral attachments is posed as the design of compliant mechanisms actuated with localized thermal expansion of materials. Topology optimization technique is utilized to obtain conceptual layout of snap-fit mechanisms that realizes a desired deformation of snapped features for joint release. Two design approaches are attempted and design results of each approach are presented, where the geometrical configuration extracted from optimal topologies are simplified to enhance the manufacturability for the conventional injection molding technologies. To maximize the magnitude of deformation, a design scheme has been proposed to include boundary conditions as design variables. Final designs are verified using commercial software for finite element analysis.

수산물 가공폐수의 배출특성 결과, 불규칙한 유입부하로 안정적인 처리에 어려움이 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 수산물 가공폐수와 같은 고농도 유기성 폐수처리에는 가압부상조 운영이 매우 중요하다. 가압부상조의 운전 factor를 조사한 결과, A/S ratio 0.05(설계기준 0.01), 가압공기 압력은 8bar(설계기준 6bar), 가압탱크 압력은 6bar(설계기준 4.5bar), HRT는 60sec(설계기준 10sec)로 운영하였다. 또한 재순환율은 40% 이상(설계기준 30%), 표면 부하율은 $13.7m^3/m^2{\cdot}hr$ 이하(설계기준 $17.7m^3/m^2{\cdot}hr$ 이하)로 변경하여 최초 설계기준에 비하여 운전 factor를 유입특성에 따라 변화시켜 가압부상조의 성능을 향상시켰다. 유입부하 검토결과, BOD는 유입 설계기준 대비 140.7%, $COD_{Mn}$는 120.32%, SS는 106.3%로 조사되었으며, T-N은 135.5%, T-P는 173.3%로 설계기준보다 높게 유입되고 있었다. 처리시설의 연간 운영비를 조사한 결과, 슬러지 처리비(27.7%)와 약품비(26.0%)가 높은 비중을 차지하였으며, 슬러지 처리비는 해양투기 금지로 더욱 상승할 것으로 판단된다. 수산물 가공폐수 처리단가는 1톤당 3,858원으로 하수처리비용(142.6원/ton)에 비해 27배 이상으로 높게 조사되었는데, 이는 고농도의 유기물과 영양염류를 포함하고 있기 때문으로 판단된다.
