Lately, the development of the semiconductor industry has led to the miniaturization of electronic devices. Therefore, semiconductor wafers of very thin thickness that can be used in Multi-Chip Packages are required. There is active research on the backgrinding process to reduce the thickness of the wafer. The backgrinding process polishes the backside of the wafer, reducing the thickness of the wafer to tens of ㎛. The equipment that performs the backgrinding process requires ultra-precision. Currently, there is no full auto backgrinding equipment in Korea. Therefore, in this study, ultra-precision backgrinding equipment was designed. In addition, finite element analysis was conducted to verify the equipment design validity. The deflection and structural stability of the backgrinding equipment were analyzed using finite element analysis.

This study reports an optimization of a 3D printed wrist brace (WB) for various tilting angles (0°, 45°, 90°) of the re-entrant (RE) pattern and thickness (2 mm, 4 mm) using thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) filaments and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) filaments. The actual printing time, weight, Poisson's ratio, and tensile property of the manufactured samples were analyzed. The results confirmed that the actual printing time and weight increased with increasing thickness, regardless of the filament type. All tilting angles of the WB showed a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR), the largest of which appeared at 90°. The results of the tensile property analysis showed that a 90° tilting angle also had the largest value of elongation and stress. From these results, we conclude that the most suitable wrist brace is one in which the actual printing time is low, the weight is minimized to a thickness of 2 mm, and the tilting angle of the RE pattern is 90° for good shock absorption. The choice of filaments may be decided upon according to the user's preference, since the TPU is stiff and the TPE is elastic.

Infill panel is the first element of a building subjected to blast loading activating its out-of-plane behavior. If the infill panel does not have enough ductility against the loading, it breaks and gets damaged before load transfer and energy dissipation. As steel infill panel has appropriate ductility before fracture, it can be used as an alternative to typical infill panels under blast loading. Also, it plays a pivotal role in maintaining sensitive main parts against blast loading. Concerning enough ductility of the infill panel out-of-plane behavior, the impact force enters the horizontal diaphragm and is distributed among the lateral elements. This article investigates the behavior of steel infill panels with different thicknesses and stiffeners. In order to precisely study steel infill panels, different ranges of blast loading are used and maximum displacement of steel infill under such various blast loading is studied. In this research, finite element analyses including geometric and material nonlinearities are used for optimization of the steel plate thickness and stiffener arrangement to obtain more efficient design for its better out-of-plane behavior. The results indicate that this type of infill with out-of-plane behavior shows a proper ductility especially in severe blast loadings. In the blasts with high intensity, maximum displacement of infill is more sensitive to change in the thickness of plate rather the change in number of stiffeners such that increasing the number of stiffeners and the plate thickness of infill panel would decrease energy dissipation by 20 and 77% respectively. The ductile behavior of steel infill panels shows that using infill panels with less thickness has more effect on energy dissipation. According to this study, the infill panel with 5 mm thickness works better if the criterion of steel infill panel design is the reduction of transmitted impulse to main structure. For example in steel infill panels with 5 stiffeners and blast loading with the reflected pressure of 375 kPa and duration of 50 milliseconds, the transmitted impulse has decreased from 41206 N.Sec in 20 mm infill to 37898 N.Sec in 5 mm infill panel.

건설 재료와 기술의 발달로 건축물이 장스팬화 ·경량화 되어 가고 있다. 이로 인해 건축물 바닥의 고유진동수(Frequency)와 감쇠비(damping ratio)가 감소함에 따라 거주자들의 바닥판의 수직진동에 대한 문제가 발생하고 있다 그러나 현행 사용성 기준은 바닥판의 최대 정적 처짐에 의해 결정하고 있다. 하지만 선행연구(Han et al., 2003)에서 현행 기준을 만족하는 바닥이 수직진동에 대한 사용성 기준을 만족하지 못하는 것을 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 거주자들의 뒤꿈치 충격하중에 대한 수직진동 사용성 기준을 만족하는 바닥 두께를 제안하고자 하였다. 슬래브 재료의 특성과 뒤꿈치 충격하중 및 마감 고정하중의 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 Monte Carlo Simulation을 사용하여 확률적으로 접근하였다. 그 결과 4변 단순지지의 경우 두께가 스팬 길이의 $1/14\~1/17$에서, 4변 고정지지의 경우 스팬 길이의 $1/18\~1/25$인 경우에 초과 확률이$0\%$에 도달하였다.

In the present study, the principle of minimum energy is employed to configure the shape of rivulet flowing down an inclined surface. The profile of laminar rivulet is determined by numerical integration. The maximum center thickness, which corresponds to the minimum thickness of falling film, is found to exist regardless of liquid flow rate and is compared with the analytical and experimental data. At small liquid flow rate the center thickness of rivulet and its width increase almost linearly with flow rate. Once the center thickness of rivulet becomes very close to its maximum value, its growth rate retards abruptly. However the width of rivulet increases proportionally to the liquid flow rate and most part of its free surface is as flat as that of stable film. The growth rate of rivulet thickness with respect to liquid flow rate becomes larger at bigger contact angle. The width of rivulet increases rapidly with its flow rate especially at small contact angle, As the liquid-vapor interfacial shear stress increases, the center thickness of rivulet decreases with its flow rate, which is remarkable at small contact angle. However the effect of interfacial shear stress on the width of rivulet is almost negligible.

A disturbance rejection controller using eccentricity filtering and LQ control techniques is proposed to alleviate the effecto of major roll eccentricity in multivariable cold-rolling processes. Fundamental problems in multivariable cold-rolling processes such as process time delay inherent in exit thickness measurement and non-stationary characteristics of roll eccentricity signals can be overcome by the proposed control method. The filtered instantaneous estimate of roll eccentricity may be exploited to improve instantaneous estimate of the exit thickness variation based on roll force and roll gap measurements, and a feedforward compensator is augmented as a reference for a gaugemeter thickness estimator. LQ feedback controller is combined with eccentricity filter for the attenuation of the exit thickness variation due to the entry thickness variation. The simulation results show that the roll eccentricity disturbance is significantly eliminated and other disturbances also are attenuated.

The e-coating to inhibit induced corrosion can deposit a coating not only on the exterior surface but also on the inside of whole metallic components of body-in-white (BIW). But it is difficult to deposit paint films on the inside area because metallic components are multi layered. It may cause shortness of e-coating thickness. The only way to properly verify e-coating thickness is by performing the use of tear-down prototypes. When paint films' thickness is inadequate, a structural modification on each metallic component is needed. Verification of the thickness improvement for a structural modification requires much manual effort and leads to increasing development time. Recently, the simulation technology has been developed to predict the e-coating thickness in e-coating field. By applying the simulation to BIW, improvement in paint thickness quality and shortening of development period are expected. The paper explains a validated solution that allows simulating the effect of design changes to the e-coating thickness and current density, thereby delivering results within a time frame of a few days.

The purpose of this study is to analyse deformation properties by carrying out of flexure experimentations after fabricating polymer concrete sandwich panels which are composed of the polymer concrete in facing and expanded polystyren in cores, and to provide the basic data necessary to design, fabricate and operate the structure using these polymer concrete sandwich panels The analysed result of this study is summarized as follows. 1. The result of experiment on flexural deflection indicated that the thicker the thickness of both cores and facing of the polymer concrete sandwich panels, the smaller the deflection but the larger the ultimate shear force. In addition, it was also shown that the thicker the thickness of these cores and facing, the smaller the increasing rate of the deflection with the increase of load. 2. The breaking shape of polymer concrete sandwich panels by experiment on flexure was different according to the thickness of facing. When the facing was 5mm in thickness, it was the flexure while it was the flexure and shear failure when the facing was 5mm in thickness. As a result, it seems that the thickness of the facing has a great effect on failure. 3. There were induced not only the related formula between load, deflection and deformation according to the thickness of cores and facing on the basis of the flexure experiment, but also formula between load, horizontal displacement, Then, it seems that it will be possible to estimate the above elements by using these related formulas.

Background: This study was to identify the effects of blood flow restriction on gluteus muscles thickness, density, and white area index for children with cerebral palsy. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: Twenty children with cerebral palsy were assigned randomly to an experimental (n=10) or control (n=10) group. The experimental group performed a bicycle exercise after blood flow restriction. The control group performed a bicycle exercise. The study used an ultrasonic instrument to measure gluteus muscles thickness, density, and WAI. Wilcoxon signed ranks test was used for determination of differences before and after treatment, and a Mannn-whitney U test was used for determination of differences between treatment groups. Results: As a result of comparison within groups, the experimental and control group showed significant difference for gluteus muscles thickness, density, and WAI after the experiment (p<0.05). In comparison between two groups, the experimental group showed more significant difference in gluteus muscles thickness, density, and WAI than the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Based on these results, a bicycle exercise after blood flow restriction effectively improved the gluteus muscles thickness, density, and WAI of children with cerebral palsy.

FEM과 다구찌의 설계기법을 이용하여 헬멧의 주름댐퍼에 걸리는 수직방향 변위량, von Mises 응력, 변형률 에너지를 주름댐퍼의 돌출길이와 두께, 주름댐퍼의 상단코너반경과 하단코너반경의 함수로 각각 분석하였다. 주름댐퍼의 형상에 대한 최적의 설계요소는 헬멧에 전달되는 외부의 충격력에 의해 형성되는 충격에너지를 흡수할 수 있는 감쇠용량, 즉 변형률 에너지를 높여줄 수 있다는 측면에서 대단히 중요하다. 본 연구에서 다구찌 설계법에 기반한 최적설계는 주름댐퍼의 돌출길이 L = 20 mm, 두께 t = 2 mm, 상단코너반경 $R_1=4\;mm$, 하단코너반경 $R_2=3\;mm$로 계산되었다. 주름댐퍼의 설계에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 핵심요소는 주름댐퍼의 두께와 돌출길이고, 이들 설계요소는 헬멧의 충격에너지 흡수용량을 나타내는 변형률 에너지 증가에 대한 기여도가 높다.
