The spectral method which is composed of an eigenfunction expansion of free modes in the wave number domain is used to produce two dimensional unsteady inviscid wave simulation such as progressive waves in a numerical pneumatic wave tank. A spatial and time dependent free surface elevation and the potential are calculated by integrating ODE derived from fully nonlinear kinematic and dynamic free surface boundary condition at each time step. The nonlinear characteristics in the waves by this method were notable as increasing wave steepness. This method is very useful and powerful in terms of saving computational time caused by rapid convergence exponentially with increasing number of nodes, even preserving accurate numerical results. Moreover, it will given us many possibilities to apply to naval and ocean engineering fields.

The welding consumables which are able to be applied in shipbuilding is decided in accordance with base materials. The class societies regulate that 3Y grade welding consumables have to be used for E(H) grade steel. Welding consumables with about 1.5% Ni contents in the deposited metal have been using to weld E(H) grade steel in domestic shipbuilding companies. It was inevitable to obtain impact property of weldment at low temperature. However, when the welding consumables are used in production, there are two kinds of problems-bad workability & cost-up of welding consumables. Therefore development of Ni free welding consumables for E(H) grade steel are required & this paper will introduce the development of Ni free 4Y grade FCW.

As the environmental regulation worldwide emerges, most notably in Europe and Japan, the elimination of Pb usage in electronic assemblies has been an important issue for microelectronics assembly due to the inherent toxicity of Pb. This has provided an impetus towards the development of Pb-free solders. A major factor affecting alloy selection is the melting point, since this will have a major impact on the other polymeric materials used in microelectronic assembly and encapsulation. Other important manufacturing issues are cost, availability, and wetting characteristics. Reliability related properties include mechanical strength, fatigue resistance, coefficient of thermal expansion and reactivity with substrate. In this article, Pb-free solder alloys have been proposed so far have been reviewed and are summarized.

Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) is very suitable as a material for free-form concrete panels (FCPs) because of its lightweight, strong, moldable, durable and sustainable properties. GFRC is superior in construction and maintenance compared with materials such as steel, aluminium, titanium, glass and plastic, and is advantageous in cost. However, GFRC is being produced by skilled craftsmen, and still lacks the technology to economically produce high quality FCPs. Currently, there is a technology to automatically and accurately produce FCPs. However, the developed technology can not be applied to the field with simple production technology without production line for mass production. To solve this problem, the purpose of this study is a basic study of production system development of free-form concrete panels. This study introduces the developed FCPs production technology and builds FCP production system for mass production. The results of this study will be used as basic data for the commercial production of FCPs in the future.

Subsea pipelines are exposed to several potential risks of damage due to wave, soil instability and other hazards. Structural failure of the steel pipelines will result in serious consequences such as release of transported hydrocarbons, pollution to the ocean environment and heavy costs due to repair. This paper examines the safety of subsea pipelines with free span which is one of high potential damages. The variation of an allowable length of static free span is examined for different boundary conditions and is given in a curve which is useful for the dsign of the subsea pipeline with a free span.

Improvement was made on the free span analysis of the offshore pipelines. The effect of axial force (both tension and compressive force) can be explicitly applied to the current design code. The closed form solutions of beam-column equation were derived for the typical boundary conditions. The solutions can be used to find the natural frequencies of the span using the energy balance concept. The results can be applied to the current design code and will result more realistic calculation of free span lengths of offshore pipelines.

In present work, bending and free vibration studies are carried out on different kinds of sandwich FGM beams using recently proposed (Chakrabarty et al. 2011) C-0 finite element (FE) based higher-order zigzag theory (HOZT). The material gradation is assumed along the thickness direction of the beam. Power-law, exponential-law, and sigmoidal laws (Garg et al 2021c) are used during the present study. Virtual work principle is used for bending solutions and Hamilton's principle is applied for carrying out free vibration analysis as done by Chalak et al. 2014. Stress distribution across the thickness of the beam is also studied in detail. It is observed that the behavior of an unsymmetric beam is different from what is exhibited by a symmetric one. Several new results are also reported which will be useful in future studies.

Crevice corrosion of stainless steels in natural seawater was investigated for several post weld treatments; as-annealed, as-welded, pickled, and ground. The results confirmed the effect of the biofilm on the cathodic reaction leading to an ennoblement of the rest potential. The degree of ennoblement of corrosion potential depends on the surface finish. As-annealed and pickled samples show stable corrosion potential approaching to 200 ~ 300 mV (SCE) while as-welded and ground samples show the fluctuating corrosion potential. This points to a situation where there are conflicting effects determining the trend in free corrosion potential. Crevice corrosion initiation will tend to pull the free corrosion potential in the active direction, whereas the presence of biofilm will tend to ennoble corrosion potential. There was no visible attack on UNS S31803, S32550, and 2205W. Therefore, those stainless steel grades appeared to be resistant to crevice corrosion in natural seawater on condition of weld metal.

Future generation of robots will be considerably more autonomous than present robotic systems. The main objective of research on theoretical problems in robotics is to endow robotics system with basic capabilities they will need to operate in an intelligent and autonomous manner. This paper discusses the problem of collision free movement of robot manipulator. It is formulated in path planning with obstacle avoidance expressed in the term of the distance between convex shapes in the three dimensional space. The examples are given to illustrate the main feature of the method.

The objective of this paper is to analyze the competitiveness of the Cargo Management improvement of FTZ(Free Trade Zone) in East Asia and to suggest several measures to improve it. To the end, various comparisons are made between the FTZ of Incehon and those in Hongkong, Taiwan, Shanghai. Competitive advantages of Incheon's FTZ over others lie in its better contiguity, frequency, quality service, and convenient connections associated with the airport. To be viable, however, the Incheon's FTZ needs to have strong supports from the central government such as more SOC investment, early introduction of RFID/UBIQUITOUS, improvement of customs process and logistics system, and competitive incentives to bring in more international channel hubs to this area. With these implemented promptly as suggested, the Incheon's FTZ will draw its competitive advantages over those in Taiwan and Shanghai and will play an vital role to bring in more MNEs to Korea.
