In the present paper, the flow distribution in the hot air drying chamber of a sizing machine was numerically analyzed with respect to the geometries of the intake duct to obtain the more uniform flow distribution in the chamber. The result shows that the velocity distribution in the inlet of the chamber was significantly dependent on the the geometry of the intake duct. The degree of the non-uniformity in the chamber was reduced as the incident angle of the intake duct became to be smaller.

Using the polarization dependence of laser output powers, we measured the characteristics of the birefringence, such as the magnitude of phase retardation, the ellipticity, and the off axis angle to the fiber optical axis, inside the ring type fiber laser cavity.

Since carbon fiber epoxy composite materials have excellent properties for structures due to their high specific strength, high specific modulus, high damping and low thermal expansion, the hollow shafts made of carbon fiber epoxy composites have been widely used for power transmission shafts for motor vehicles , spindles of machine tools, motor base, bearing mount for tool up and manufacturing. The molded composite machine elements are not usually accurate enough for mechanical machine elements, which require turning drilling , cutting and grinding. The experiment are surface grinding wheel GC60 to the carbon fiber epoxy composite specimen with respect to staking angle [0]nT , [45]nT, [90]nT on the CNC grinding machine. In this paper, the surface grinding characteristics of composite plate, which are surveyed experimentally and analytically with respect to the grinding force, surface roughness and wheel loading according to the variable depth of cut, wheel velocity and table feed rate are investigated.

In this study, cotton fibers were coated with a different weight percentage of octadecyl dimethyl(3-triethoxy silylpropyl) ammonium chloride(ODDMAC) to improve antimicrobial and water repellent properties. First, the ODDMAC dissolved in ethanol to prepare a solution. Then the cotton fibers were immersed in the ODDMAC/ethanol solution for 10 minutes at ambient temperature and dried at 80℃ for 3 minutes followed by curing. The treated cotton fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The treated cotton fibers revealed sufficient antimicrobial activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae(ATCC 4352) and Staphylococcus aureus(ATCCBAA-1707). The hydrophobic nature of the treated cotton fibers was characterized by contact angle measurement. The results showed that the cotton fibers treated with the ODDMAC showed excellent hydrophobic properties which improved to 121°.

In this paper, the intrinsic birefringence and twist-induced rotation of the single mode optical fiber have been investigated. On the analysis, the optical fiber has been modeled as a linear retarder and the intrinsic linear retardation of the single mode optical fiber is approximately found to be 2.57'/m from the measurement. Theoretically analyzing the twist-induce rotation by the purturbation theory, it is found that the magnitude of the twist-induced rotation varies linearly with the twisted angle. And this theorerical result has been in good accord with the experimental result.

The best simulation condition for the fiber collimator that uses ball lenses was investigated. This kind of fiber collimator can be used in a Micro-Optical-Cross-Connects(MOXC). MOXC is composed of collimating ball lenses, micro mirrors and single-mode fibers. In order to design a MOXC, it is very important to calculate beam path, beam radius, divergence angle that determines the insertion loss of the MOXC. Since the beam profile from the fiber facet is not exact Gaussian profile, it was found that the simulation condition in which beam waist exists on the fiber facet, ignoring Numerical Aperture(NA), gives best agreement with the experimental results. Beam radii were measured with conventional knife edge method.

We have evaluated the performance of strain-chirped fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based tunable dispersion compensator in a 40 Gb/s transmission link. In our proposed compensator, the value of dispersion could be changed from -353 ps/nm to -962 ps/nm by adjusting the rotation angle of the metal beam on which the FBG was mounted. In order to evaluate the effect of ripples in reflectivity and variations in passband of the FBG based dispersion compensator, transmission performance has been measured with our tunable dispersion compensator. Error-free transmission of a 40 Gb/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal over conventional single-mode fiber (SMF) was achieved.

Polypropylene fiber has the advantages of light weight, heat retention and antibacterial properties, but it is difficult to expand its market because it cannot be dyed or imparted functionality due to its hydrophobic properties. Atmospheric pressure plasma processing can modify the surface of the fiber and create polar functional groups on the surface of the fiber. In this study, an experiment was conducted on the hydrophilization of the ultra-hydrophobicity of polypropylene through plasma processing and surface changes before and after plasma processing. The ultra-hydrophobicity of polypropylene is the cause of impossible for dyeing and imparting functionality. Untreated polypropylene became hydrophilic, and it was confirmed that the ratio of oxygen and carbon(O/C) increased about 11 times from untreated polypropylene 0.017 to plasma-treated polypropylene 0.190.

For solving troubles happened during the drilling process with carbon fiber epoxy composite materials(CFRP) by using HSS drill, a few types of diamond gift electroplated drills are manufactured, and machinability of these drills is experimented with a variety of cutting speed and feed rate. These drills have some advantages of good wear resistant and the conception of grinding process. As a result, using of these drills improves both troubles being caused by tool wear and damage of exit surface depending on fiber stacking angle. It is desirable that cutting conditions for the cutting thickness per revolution must be set under 0.01mm when the size of a diamond grit is # 60 .approx. 80.

Recently Western countries are now beginning to use ACM (Advanced Composites Material), in the construction industry Compared with existing construction materials, ACM possesses many advantages such as light-weight, high-strength, corrosion resistant property. Among other fabrication process of ACM, pultrusion is one of the promising one for civil infrastructure application. In this paper, the structural characteristics of pultruded GFRP strip and structural members of angle and tube type were studied. For the strip, parametric studies of pultrusion process has been carried out. Considered parameters were volume fraction, temperature, pulling speed and fiber orientations. For the pultruded angle and tube, compression test and buckling analysis has been carried out. The results were compared with calculated values using coded formulae
