The direction of the applied load and displacement rate on the femur during falls may be an important factors in the etiology of hip fractures. Nonetheless, previous studies did not consider these two factors simultaneously for falling condition. Therefore, in the present study, an impact test system is developed to simulate the falling condition and the influence of impact angle on the deformation pattern changes of proximal femur is investigated. The results showed that a slight variation in impact angle quite affects deformation pattern of the proximal femur. Along with bone mineral density and trabaecular morphology, the impact angle can be another important factor affecting the structural capacity of the proximal femur.

Indentation pattern and line pattern were machined on borosilicate(Pyrex 7740 glass) surface using the combination of mechanical machining by $Nanoi-indenter\circledR$ XP and HF wet etching, and a etch-mask effect of the affected layer of the nano-scratched and indented Pyrex 7740 glass surface was investigated. In this study, effects of indentation and scratch process with etching time on the morphologies of the indented and scratched surfaces after isotropic etching were investigated from an angle of deformation energies.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the ground deformation by trench excavation for Diaphragm Wall construction. The model tests are performed to investigate the back ground deformation by lowering of slurry level in trench after excavating. Through these, the deformation characteristic of the back ground due to stress release of excavated space was investigated. This study considered relative density of soil mass and the distance between trench and surcharge. An experiment was performed in order to observe the failure pattern of a slurry-supported trench excavated in sandy ground. From model tests, in order to predict reasonably the deformation behavior of the adjacent ground due to the underground excavation, it is significantly recommended that the ground settlement by trench excavation should be considered.

The deformation of injection molding is seriously affected by injection molding conditions, such as melt and mold temperature and injection and holding pressure. In these conditions, the mold temperature is controlled by flowing coolant, which can be classified by the Reynolds number in the mold-cooling channel. In this study, the deformation of the automotive side molding according to the variation of the Reynolds number in the coolant was simulated by Moldflow. In the results, as the Reynolds number was increased, the mold cooling was also increased. However, when the Reynolds number exceeded a certain range, the mold cooling was not increased further. In addition to the Moldflow verification, the mold cooling by the coolant was simulated by CFX. The CFX results confirmed that the Reynolds number significantly influenced the mold cooling. The coolant, which has a high Reynolds number value, quickly cooled the mold. However, the coolant, which has a low Reynolds number value, such as 0 points, hardly cooled the mold. In an injection molding experiment, as the Reynolds number was high, the deformation of the moldings was reduced. The declining tendency of the deformation was similar to the Moldflow results.

Tensile deformation behavior with different strain rate was investigated. $Zr_{56.2}Ti_{13.8}Nb_{5.0}Cu_{6.9}Ni_{5.6}Be_{12.5}$(bulk metallic glass alloy possessed crystal phase which was called $\beta$-phase of dendrite shape, mean size of $20{\sim}30{\mu}m$ and occupied 25% of the total volume) was used in this study. Maximum tensile strength was obtained as 1.74GPa at strain rate $10^2s^{-1}$ and minimum strength was found to be 1.6GPa at $10^{-1}s^{-1}$. And then, maximum plastic deformation occurred at the strain rate of $5{\times}10^{-2}s^{-1}$ and represented 1.75%, though minimum plastic deformation showed 0%. In the specific range of strain rate, relatively higher plastic deformation and lower ultimate tensile strength were found with lots of shear bands. The fractographical observation after tensile test indicated that vein like pattern on the fracture surface was well developed especially in the above range of strain rate.

During all mechanical processes rice plants are subjected to verious forces such as natural load of wind and mechanical load of agricultural machines. A force is always accompanied by deformation, which must be either sufficiently great for pressing or sufficiently slight in order to avoid damage. The mechanical behavior of the rice plants is determined by three variables : force, deformation and time. And they must be studied using rheological methods to determine their viscoelastic properties. This study is conducted to experimentally determine the mechanical and rheological properties of the rice stalks subjected to radial load. The force relaxation tests are performed under constant deformation, during which the reduction of forces over time is measured. The mechanical models were developed from the abtained data. The results were as follows : 1. The relaxation behavior of a rice stalk in radial compession may be described by a generalized Maxwell model consisting of 3 Maxwell elements in parallel. 2. Relaxatiom intensity always decreased with increased time of relaxation. 3. The rate of deformation has a significant effect on the relaxation behavior. having increasing pattern with an increase in rate of deformation. 4. The relaxation intensity and residual deformation increased with increased initial load. 5. The relaxtion of the intermediate portion of stalk was bigger tham that of the upper and lower portions.

In the specific range of strain rate, relatively higher plastic deformation and lower ultimate tensile strength were found with lots of shear bands.

In this study, we investigated the injection molding technology of thick-walled light guides, which are parts that control the light source of automotive lamps. Through injection molding analysis, the gate position that can minimize product shrinkage and deformation was selected, and a mold reflecting the analysis results was manufactured to evaluate the effect of injection speed and holding pressure on transferability during micro-pattern molding through experiments. When designing an injection mold for products with varying thicknesses, it was found that installing the gate on the side of the thicker part was advantageous for reducing volume shrinkage and deformation. It was found that the effect of shrinkage due to thickness may be greater than the position of the gate on pattern transferability. The pattern transfer error decreased as the injection speed and holding pressure increased, and it was found that increasing the injection speed was relatively effective.

As the line width of the pattern become thin more and more, the accuracy of ultra-precision stage should be increased. Various type stages have been developed and used in fabrication phase and inspection lab. Furthermore the line with become several tens of nanometer recently. We need ultra high precision stage. In this paper a new type stage is proposed in order to reduce the deformation of working table. The table is supported by several flexure hinges and actuated by a PZT. The local deformation is analyzed and the vibratory motion is also examined by FEM package.
