We fabricated multi-scale such as macro-, micro-, and multi-scale wrinkles by using repetitive volume dividing (RVD) method and thermal curing process. Also wrinkle surface was modified with coating of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM). We measured the contact angle of each wrinkled surface, and observed the behavior of droplets on sloping surface. Through experimental study, we found out that the contact angle was much higher in case of multi-scale and SAM coated wrinkles. And micro-scale wrinkle showed a high contact angle comparing with that of macro-scale wrinkle. Dynamic behaviors of a water droplet like sliding velocity on diverse wrinkled surfaces were dependent on their static contact angles. These results showed that hydro-dynamic characteristics were changed depending on the wrinkle structure and the material forming the wrinkle. These dynamic characteristics can be utilized in bio-chip, microfluidics, and many others in order to control easily chemical reactivity.

The hydroforming technology has been spreaded dramatically in automotive industry last 10 years. Itmay cause many advantages to automotive applications in terms of better structural integrity of the parts, lower cost from fewer part count, material saving, weight reduction, lower springback, improved strength and durability and design flexibility. In this study, the whole process of rear sub-frame parts development by tube hydroforming using steel material having tensile strength of 440MPa grade is presented. At the part design stage, it requires feasibility study and process design aided by CAE (Computer Aided Design) to confirm hydroformability in details. Effects of parameters such as internal pressure, axial feeding and geometry shape in automotive rear sub-frame by hydroforming process were carefully investigated. Overall possibility of hydroformable sub-frame parts could be examined by cross sectional analyses. Moreover, it is essential to ensure the formability of tube material on every forming step such as pre-bending, preforming and hydroforming. In addition, all the components of prototyping tool are designed and interference with press is examined from the point of geometry and thinning.

The environment and energy related problem has become one of the most important global issues in recent years. One of the most effective ways of improving the fuel efficiency of automobiles is the weight reduction. In order to obtain this goal the hydroforming technology has been adapting for the high strength steel and its application is being widened. In present study, the chassis components (mainly cross members of engine cradle) simulation and development by hydroforming technology to apply high strength steel having tensile strength of 440 MPa grade is studied. In the part design stage, it requires feasibility study and process design aided by CAE (Computer Aided Design) to confirm hydroformability in details. Overall possibility of hydroformable chassis parts could be examined by cross sectional analyses. Moreover, it is essential to ensure the formability of tube material on every forming step such as pre-bending, performing and hydroforming. In the die design stage, all the components of prototyping tool were designed and interference with press was investigated from the point of geometry and thinning.

경주시 양북면 용당리에 발달한 단층암을 대상으로 X선 회절 분석(XRD), 광학현미경 분석, 레이저 입도 분석, 프랙탈 차원 분석을 적용하여 단층암의 광물 조성과 미구조, 잔류입자의 분포 특성을 연구하였다. 단층핵은 약 1.5 m 두께로 발달하며 이 중 각력대는 약 1.2m, 단층핵의 가장 중심부인 비지대는 평균 20cm의 얇은 두께로 노출되어 있다. 각력대에서는 석영, 장석류 등의 조암광물이 주 구성 광물로서 산출되고 비지대에서는 녹니석, 일라이트 등의 점토광물이 주 구성 광물로서 산출된다. 단층암에서 빈번하게 산출되는 맥상광물, 황철석, 변질 광물 등은 단층활동과 더불어 열수변질 작용이 수반되었음을 시사하고 있다. 현미경에 의한 구획 점셈(box counting), Image J에 의한 영상분석 및 레이저 입도 분석에 기초한 프랙탈 차원값은 단층암의 입자 파쇄 특성을 잘 보여준다. 세 가지 방법으로 구한 프랙탈 차원값(D)은 각력대에서 비지대로 갈수록 그 값이 증가하고 비지대 내에서는 공통적으로 높은 차원값을 갖는다. 비지대 내에서는 D값의 변화가 상대적으로 적으며, 일정한 경향성이 나타나지 않는다. 이는 각력대에서는 입자들의 대량파쇄가 우세하게 발생하고, 단층운동이 계속되어 생성된 비지대에서는 입자의 마모가 보다 우세하게 발생하였음을 시사한다. 연구지역 단층암의 광물 조성과 입자 분포 특성은 다중 단층 운동과 열수변질 작용이 본 연구지역 단층대의 진화에 큰 영향을 끼쳤음을 지시한다. 단층암에서의 프랙탈 차원값이 측정 기법에 따라 차이가 발생하므로 프랙탈 차원값의 상대적인 비교는 보다 신중히 이용되어야 될 것으로 생각된다.
