A study for replacing methylene chloride for an alternative cleaning agent which can be utilized for cleaning aluminium parts of hard disk drives was carried out at Suwon factory of Samsung Electro-mechanics Co. Ltd. As a result, quite a good cleaning agent was selected through data collection of alternative cleaning agents, their analysis of environment effects and safty factors and testing of their cleaning power. As compared with methylene chloride, the selected cleaning agent has better cleaning power. It is also more environmental-friendly, less toxic and more economical. And the operating cost reduction due to adoption of this alternative cleaning agent in Samsung Electro-mechanics Co. Ltd. was more than ￦l46,000,000 annually without any capital instrument in addition to improvement of environmental and safty conditions in the plant.

The current railway projects under plan, design, or construction have been designed as 'very long and deep underground tunnel'. Therefore, it is reasonable that the standards for preventing disaster in such conditions should be intensified in order to avoid repeating the same failure which happened in Daegu subway disaster, Although we consent to the opinion that nothing can compete with human being's life, it is very difficult to protect the life from all of potential disasters perfectly in railway fields because the excessive standards can result in excess construction cost, which can bring about cancelation of the project itself eventually. Therefore optimized disaster design standard is required to negotiate the conflict between economical cost and social tolerance limitation simultaneously.

Route conditions, applied voltage and the condition of stringing conductors should be considered in determining standard types and skeleton diagrams of towers. In skeleton diagrams the necessary number of insulators and the air clearance have been decided by the results of studies on insulation coordination. Galloping, sleet-jumping, sag characteristics and the possibility of closeness of conductors should be considered according to the condition of stringing conductor and the span. After reviewing those factors, it is necessary to determine the minimum vertical and horizontal distance for the safety of transmission lines under any circumstances. Also it should be economical.

Generally the excessive caused by isolated sources in localized to members closely located to the vibration sources. In this case it may not be economical to model the whole structure to obtain the responses of a specific member. In this study, a substructuring technique has been used for local vibration of a framed structure. The boundary conditions of members selected are determined by condensing the degrees of freedom of the remaining members. Fixed and hinged boundary condition are also assumed for comparison. According to the results, the substructuring technique is quite efficient in predicting the responses of a structure on which the vibration source in located, but is not very reliable for the members located for away from the source.

An ultrasonic machining process is efficient and economical means for precision machining of glass and ceramic materials. However, the mechanism of the process with respect to the crack initiation and propagation and the stress development in the ceramic workpiece subsurface arc still not well understood. In this research, we have investigated the basic mechanism of ultrasonic machining of ultrasonic machining of glass by the experimental approach. For this purpose, we designed and fabricated the desktop micro ultrasonic machine. The feed is controlled precisely by using the constant load control system. During machining experiments, the effects of abrasive characteristics and machining conditions on the surface roughness and the material removal rate are measured and compared.

A hypereutectic Aluminum-Silicon Alloy is widely used in the parts of autombile because of high-resistance and good strength. In this study, the cutting of a hypereutectic Al-Si alloy (A390) for extraction of Si particle was experimentally investigated. By proper selection of cutting tool materials and optimization of cutting conditions, economical machining of this alloy is achieved. The surface roughness relates closely with the feed rate and cutting speed.

This paper presents an efficient operational technique of material feeding process, trainning for multi-operations, machine conditions, and role of foreman and material-supplying man, for constructing the flexible assembly cells in the domestic electronic industries. And an practical method for computing the number of economical cells is also presented by the cost-effective model that compares the additional assembly machine requirement with the four reductive effects including WIP/finished goods inventory, the troubles in the assembly line, the opportunity loss for small order quantity, and amounts of production management due to the introduction of cell line. An case study is introduced in for a domestic electronic assembly line at the end.

Prestressed concrete cylindrical pipe (PCCP) has been widely used for the distribution of water in communal, industrial, and agricultural systems for a long time. However, as it deteriorates, structural failures have been experienced. Replacing the entire existing PCCP with partial damages is not an economical method. Currently, as a cost effective repairing method, a new approach using fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has been applied. A new design procedure of this method was proposed considering various kinds of loading condition. However, it is not easy to apply this method for design purpose due to its complex procedures. The objective of this study is to provide a new design criteria and process for PCCP rehabilitation with FRP. Through this method, the appropriate quantities of FRP layers will be decided after examining of limit states of deteriorated PCCP. For this purpose, two deterioration conditions are assumed; fully deteriorated and partially deteriorated. Different limit states for each case are applied to decide the quantities of attached FRP. The concept of "margin of safety" is used to judge whether the design results are within the optimal ranges to satisfy all limit states.

In-process quality control and high reliability of the weld are the major concerns in applying friction welding to the economical and qualified mass-production. Experimental examinations and quantitative analysis were performed for the optimiaztion of similar friction welding of hydraulic valve spool steels(SNCM220, SCM435, SACM645, SCM415, ${\varphi}24). The quantitative correlations were found between the initial cumulative counts of acoustic emission(AE) occurring during plastic deformation periods of the welding and the fatigue life as well as weld strength and welding conditions. A real-time evaluation system was developed for the friction weld quality by AE.

Recently, auger-drilled piling has been widely used in urban area to reduce the air pollution and noise. But this construction method that its basic theory was introduced from Japan may be changed depending on the each piling company and construction field condition. Therefore, the design code and management method for auger-drilled piling is not defined yet. Especially, the lack of research on the bearing capacity of auger-drilled piling leads to the absence of rational bearing capacity prediction equation. This paper presents the optimum design code and economical construction method of the auger-drilled piling by proposing the new bearing capacity prediction equation based on the site specific soil types and construction conditions. In this paper, existing bearing capacity prediction equations and current pile load tests were compared. And the end bearing capacity and skin friction characteristics were also analyzed by comparing the results of CAPWAP. From the results of analysis, a reliable bearing capacity prediction equation considered soil types is proposed.
