The majority of small/medium sized shipbuilders in Korea is poor in capital and then, should be restructured as an efficient production system with low investment. Due to considering this situation, the cooperative work system is proposed, in this study, as more effective production system for small/medium sized shipbuilder The cooperative work system Is the production system that many small/medium sized shipbuilders in a group jointly share the common facilities except minimum equipments and have managerial cooperation such as joint purchase of raw materials. The efficiency of cooperative work system is proved from economic and technical point of view with the case study of FRP shipbuilders of Sapjin industrial complex located at Mokpo area.

Global sustainable energy needs and carbon neutrality goals make hydrogen a key future energy source. South Korea and Japan lead with proactive hydrogen policies, including South Korea's Hydrogen Law and Japan's strategy updates aiming for a hydrogen-centric society by 2050. A notable advance is the solar thermal chemical water-splitting cycle for green hydrogen production, spotlighted by Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) and Niigata University's joint initiative. This method uses solar energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, offering a carbon-neutral hydrogen production route. The study focuses on international collaboration in solar energy for thermochemical water-splitting and E-fuel production, highlighting breakthroughs in catalyst and reactor design to enhance solar thermal technology's commercial viability for sustainable fuel production. Collaborations, like ARENA in Australia, target global carbon emission reduction and energy system sustainability, contributing to a cleaner, sustainable energy future.

A joint brand of furniture companies named Gaboro has been officially launched in the form of a juridical foundation. It was invested by Seoul City and the union members for regenerating the furniture companies in Seoul on August 1, 2003. However, Gaboro still has a few problems to overcome for successful business from joint marketing. Firstly, Gaboro must create a R&D post in order to lead the member companies through consistent production of furniture in addition to engraving its brand. Secondly, the head office of Gaboro must be authorized to prevent each union member from manufacturing the furniture products not well suited to the fresh brand. In addition, the member companies justly need to regulate the product items, and simultaneously to accept the new image concepts. Lastly, Gaboro needs to launch unique items to discriminate its design from other competitive companies.

Biomechanics is an important scientific foundation of physical therapy and is used to relate kinematics, kinetics, statics and dynamics for comprehencing human movement. The knee is well studied for demonstrating biomechanical analyses of joint because of its simplicity. The purposes of this study were 1)to provide categories and concepts of biomechanics, 2) to apply these concepts to knee movement involving daily living and gait, and 3) to review current and preceeding researches about biomechanics of knee. Thus, physical therapiestes in clinic may be helped understand of movement which includes considerations of description and production related force, moment and power.

Development of FSW for use in lap joint production would expend the number of applications that could benefit from the technique. In the study, an extensive investigation was carried out on FSW lap joints, including interface morphology and mechanical properties. Welding variables included welding speed, rotation speed and, of particular importance, lap joint a methods. Examination of metallographic cross sections and failure locations showed a critical sheet interface present in all welds. Results indicates FSW lap joints may potentially replace other joining processes like resistance spot welding and riveting.

In this thesis, using the 400 series ferrite stainless steel such as 434LD$_2$ which are furter excellent then the existing ferric products in mechanical characteristics, and experiment has been conducted on corrosion resistance of sensor ring. The results are following. 1. The products before sintering are much more corrodible in the condition of spray test of salt water and ammonia than humidity and nitrogen condition. 2. 434LD$_2$ ferrite stainless steel has shown a good corrosion resistance without an addition surface treatment. thus the decreasing production process has been obtained. 3. As hardness value of $H_{RB}$ 80 and tensile test, 434LD$_2$ ferrite stainless steel with show a good endurance when it is combined to constant velocity joint (c/v joint), and has a good hardness properties endurable to sand and pebble impact.

In this study. problems caused during production process of stainless steel carbody are investigated and solutions are found out. Roll forming process to make complex shape is introduced and surface crack on high strength stainless steel plate is investigated. Also, surface indentation is discussed and the effect of welding condition is clarified. Insulated tip to reduce the indentation is recommended for improvement of surface smoothness. Lastly. corrosion of welded joint is discussed and the effects of material, stress and environment are investigated.

This paper is concerned with a standard size system and production proportion of combat boots. For the standard size system foot sizes of 327 soldiers were mesured by Martin type anthropometric equipment. 24 foot measurements were obtained on all individuals. The standard size system of which key measurements are foot length and joint girth are proposed on the basis of the statistically treated measurement data. The production (or purchasing) proportion of the proposed size system of combat boots are also proposed.

Spot-welding is a widely used manufacturing method for thin-sheet components, especially in mass-production industries such as the car industry. Automobiles are often constructed by multi-lap spot welding to secure the passenger from the accident, where optimisation of the welding conditions is a major economic consideration. This research is conducted to investigate weldability characteristics with various welding conditions on the 4-lap spot welded joint of structural steel sheets in automobile. The relationship between the tensile-shear strength and the indentation depth has been investigated to propose the optimum welding conditions. The welding current and the welding time have a greater effect on the welding characteristics than the electrode force. It was found that the electrode force has a relatively close relationship with the expulsion occurrence. The design curves for optimum welding are proposed for the 4-lap spot welded joint.

Seven full-scale exterior beam-column joints were produced and tested under reversible cyclic loads to determine. Two of these seven specimens were produced using ordinary reinforced concrete (RC). Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) was placed in three different regions of the beams of the rest five specimens to determine the extent of the region where SFRC is the most effective. The extent of the region of SFRC was kept constant at the columns of all five specimens. Three of these five specimens which had one stirrup in the joint, were tested to evaluate the effect of the stirrup on the behavior of the beam-column joint together with SFRC. In production of the specimens with SFRC, all special requirements of the Turkish Earthquake Code related to the spacing of hoops were disregarded. Previous researches reported in the literature indicate that the fiber type, the volume content, and the aspect ratio of steel fibers affect the behavior of beam-column joints produced with SFRC. The results of the present investigation show that the behavior of exterior beam-column joints depends on the extent of the region where SFRC is used and the usage of stirrup in the joint, in addition to the parameters listed in the literature.
