Fast tool servo (FTS) is an enabling technology to fabricate various shapes of functional surface geometries in a precise and controllable manner. FTS can be also employed as a straightforward and efficient surface treatment way of making such products more durable. In this work, process characteristics using high-precision FTS-based surface texturing were qualitatively and quantitatively investigated to provide a class of surface design rule. The morphologies of surfaces processed with different conditions were first examined by observing the resultant 2D/3D surface profiles. In addition, the effects of the surface treatment using FTS on hardness and wear properties were characterized and compared to those without treatment.

The pipelines are apt to erosion or corrosion because of the high-speed flow of water and steam with high temperatures or high pressures. This study was carried out a finite element analysis (FEA) and an experimental for the fracture behavior of T-joint pipes with local wall thinning under internal pressure. Local wall thinning was machined on the pipes in order to simulate erosion and corrosion of the metal. The configurations of the eroded area included an eroded ratio of d/t=0.80~0.963 and an eroded length of l=25 mm, 50 mm, and 102 mm. Three-dimensional elastic-plastic analyses were also carried out using FEA, which accurately simulates failure behaviors. In regards to the relationship between pressure and eroded, the criterion that indicates what can be used safely under operating pressure and design pressure were obtained from FEA. The FEA results were in relatively good agreement with that of the experiment.

This study was considered to occur the local wall thinning at elbow which is flowing the steam and high-pressure water of high-temperature. The angle of elbow is ${\Theta}=45^{\circ}$ and $67.545^{\circ}$. The damage behaviors of inner or outer wall thinning elbow under internal pressure were calculated by FEA(finite element analysis). We compared the simulated results by FEA with experimental data. The FEA results are as follows: In the FEA results of three types of wall thinning ratio, the circumferential and longitudinal stresses show the similar values regardless of the angle of elbow, respectively. The circumferential strain was greater at elbow of small angle, but the longitudinal strain was nearly same. The FEM stress of outer wall thinning elbow was slightly higher than that of the inner wall thinning elbow, and strain was also slightly higher. In the experiments, the circumferential strain was increased with the increase in the internal pressure, and increased rapidly on about 0.2% of strain. The longitudinal strain was small. The strain at break was much smaller than 0.2%. In the relation between pressure and eroded ratio, the criteria that can be used safely under operating pressure and design pressure were obtained. The results of FEA were in relatively good agreement with those of the experiment.

This paper presents an optimization process for a catamaran hull form. The entire optimization process was managed using the CAD-CFD integration platform CAESES. The resistance of the demi-hull was simulated in calm water using the CFD solver STAR-CCM+, and an inviscid fluid model was used to reduce the computing time. The Free-Form Deformation (FFD) method was used to make local changes in the bulbous bow. For the optimization of the bulbous bow, the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA)-II was applied, and the optimization variables were the length, breadth, and angle between the bulbous bow and the base line. The Lackenby method was used for global variation of the bow of the hull. Nine hull forms were generated by moving the center of buoyancy while keeping the displacement constant. The optimum bow part was selected by comparing the resistance of the forms. After obtaining the optimum demi-hull, the distance between two demi-hulls was optimized. The results show that the proposed optimization sequence can be used to reduce the resistance of a catamaran in calm water.

To prolong the rapid progress of IT, it is necessary to develop contents through IT convergence among the existing goods & service and process areas to create new added-values. In particular, the wedding dress industry has infinite potential in utilizing various contents like virtual fitting by connecting with newly compelling IT areas such as smart phones, Augmented Reality (AR), and application contents. In the meantime, a large scale of the wedding industry has gained global competitiveness due to consulting expertise and the influence of the Korean Wave, whereas most small-sized wedding dress shops in Korea fall short of developing wedding dress designs and receiving relevant information. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to help brides who have difficulties in choosing a wedding dress by decreasing their time and effort by providing wedding dress designs and information, according their desired image, body type, and circumstances through the utilization of virtual fitting application contents. Not only that, this study aims to diversify and specialize in wedding information and to help users to set a guideline for wedding dresses that are most suitable for them. Moreover, this study has an academic meaning in proposing an interdisciplinary convergence research model through the study of wedding dress design development, AR, and application contents utilization.

This paper analyzes the existing copyright management and copyright sharing model and discusses the limitations. It then proposes a consortium Blockchain-based copyright management model in which the service platform participates as a node, and discusses how to combine the My Data concept with Blockchain and smart contracts. Also, Blockchain-based CP-ABE is introduced and applied to the proposed model as a way for users to define access policies and store copyright data in encrypted form on the storage of the online service providers (OSP). Compared with the existing copyright management model, the proposed model allows the copyright holder to focus on copyright registration, license content design, and sharing, as the data subject. And it is expected to be able to transparently manage the usage records and the basis for the settlement of the copyrighted data that are shared and used on each platform.

Recently, greenery system is frequently applied on buildings and artificial grounds to improve urban ecological functionality. Specifically, architectural greenery is also known as an architectural language that can meet the sustainable design concept of architects. Although the architectural greenery system can be optimized through an interdisciplinary approach between architecture, horticulture and landscape- architecture, there is a problem of communication on the ideal gap between them. Therefore, this study is expected to establish the comtemporary architecture as hi-tech and the organic architecture in internationalism. Moreover, it can analyze the case study on architectural greenery system designed by a Pritzker Prize winner who represents the comtemporary architectural trend. In this analysis, we calculate and compare the U-value of the free-form surface system based on the international standards: ISO and CIBSE etc. Moreover, we calculate a change of artificial soil transmittance respect on compounding ratio of the bottom ash and pearlite. In the case of California Academy of Science by Renzo Piano, total transmittance of the greenery system results in 48% of domestic thermal insulation standard in dry condition. This result will be used as a basic study to promote developing the advanced system based on the concept of consilience.

People are willing to spend more for their health. Traditional medical services are hospital-centric and patients obtain their treatments mainly at the clinics or hospitals. As people age, more medical services are needed to exceed the potentials of this hospital-centric service model. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of CardioSentinal, a 24-hour heart care and monitoring system. CardioSentinal is designed for in-home and daily medical services. It mainly focuses on the outpatients and elderly. CardioSentinal is an interdisciplinary system that integrates recent advances in many fields such as bio-sensors, small-range wireless communications, pervasive computing, cellular networks and modern data centers. We conducted numerous clinic trials for CardioSentinal. Experimental results show that the sensitivity and accuracy are quite high. It is not as good as the professional measurements in hospital due to harsh environments but the system provides valuable information for heart diseases with low-cost and extreme convenience. Some early experiences and lessons in the work will also be reported.
