The automotive industry is in constant pursuit of alternative materials and processes to address the ever changing needs of their customers and the environment. Applications of laser welding have increased steadily in recent years due to its benefits including high speed, high productivity, and high energy density of heat source. This paper investigated the relationship between laser welding parameters and penetration characteristics. The Welding power was fixed at 5kW and welding speeds were varied for the thickness of the workpiece material. Full penetration occurred in the energy per unit area of $21J/mm^2$. The hardness of the weld zone was different for each strength of the workpiece material, however the lowest hardness values were the same in the heat-affected zone.

This paper presents a motor drive IC for automotive applications. The drive IC is dedicated to control and drive external MOSFETs which directly drive 3-phase motor with a high current. In case of driving high-side power switches, the bootstrap topology is widely used. However, it requires three bootstrap diode and three capacitor respectively. And it needs a minimum charging time to maintain high-side voltage. The motor drive IC uses a charge-pump circuit for all three high-side voltage with various protection schemes for automotive applications.

A strong need to improve the quality of electric power is increased because of increasing use of the sensitive and small-sized electronic devices. The surges on the low-voltage ac power lines are induced by nearby lightning return strokes, and the facilities for HA, OA, FA, ME as well as computer are easily damaged by high-voltage transients. The behaviors of lightning surge characteristics transferred from the primary winding to the secondary winding in distribution transformers using a Marx generator were experimentally investigated. The transfer characteristics of lightning surge associated with a custom service ground of secondary side were also examined.

We have designed a Marx Generator, named EMD Pulse Generator(EPG), which makes steep front high voltage, 50ns rise time and 200kV high. It was designed as coaxial type and in small size, 70cm high and 20cm in diameter. The firing system is trigatron type and the spark gap switches in each stage are coaxial with the axis of the system. In this paper we mention about the characteristics of EPG and several experimental data.

We investigated response characteristics of twisted nematic (TN) cell with different nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) and cell gap d on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface. High transmittance and fast response time of the TN cell on the rubbed PI surface were achieved by using high birefringence (${\Delta}n$) and low cell gap d. The transmittance and response time of the TN cell on the rubbed PI surface decreased with decreasing ${\Delta}nd$. The fast response time of TN cell using high birefringence with ${\Delta}nd=0.363$ on the rubbed PI surface was measured 5.1 ms.

In this paper, the volume resistivity properties of silicone rubber investigated due to temperature dependence. And the measurement of volume resistivity is measured from 1, 5 and 10 minutes when the each applied voltage, for example, DC 100[V], 250[V], 500[V] and 1000[V], is applied. according to the step voltage application method. As a result, The volume resistivity is higher high voltage than low voltage at the room temperature, but is higher low voltage than high voltage at high temperature.

$SrTa_2O_6$(STA) thin films were fabricated by sol-gel method. The films annealed below $700^{\circ}C$, showed amorphous phase and crystallization phase was observed after annealing over $800^{\circ}C$. From high frequency capacitance-voltage measurements, 24nm thick STA thin film annealed at $900^{\circ}C$, has an EOT of 5.7nm and a dielectric constant of 16. Leakage current characteristics were improved by the insertion of chemical oxide between STA and Si. Leakage current densities are around $3.5{\times}10^{-7}A/cm^2$ at 5V for the structure inserted chemical oxide but $1.4{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^2$ at 5V without chemical oxide.

The floor material is known as the most influential emission source of the residential building, because most floor material is made of wood compound and adhesive like a plywood flooring. Moreover, floor heating system keeps the inside temperature of the material high. As the emission of hazardous chemical compound from the construction material is influenced by many factors, it is necessary to analyze the emission characteristics of the floor material to improve IAQ. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to investigate the emission characteristics of the floor material affected by several factors such as temperature, air exchange rate, initial concentration, and internal diffusion coefficient. A simulation program is also written based on the mass transfer theory. The simulation results show that there is some level of difference on the TVOC concentration when each of the factors is variable.

In previous paper, the wear properties of clutch facing materials with two different copper amounts against fly-wheel materials used in the clutch system were investigated by sliding wear tests at different applied loads and speeds. This paper have been aimed to evaluate the friction properties for clutch facing materials at the same test conditions as the previous paper. The experimental results indicated that the friction properties of clutch facing materials are influenced from the thermal conductivities of the clutch facing material and the counter material. The clutch facing material with the lower thermal conductivity and the fly-wheel material with the higher thermal conductivity showed the low and stable friction coefficient in the range of high sliding speed. This appears to be due to the formation of a film on the surface of the fly-wheel material.
