Since the scale of vessels is growing up recently, some troubles between the shaft and after bush bearing are frequently reported. Generally, mean pressure on bush bearing is used as a design criterion. However, in some case of the long bearing such as after bush bearing of the propulsion shaft, it might be liable to be locally under high pressure. As for the main engine bearings and the intermediate shaft bearing, it is reasonable to take the mean pressure as a design criterion. But, in case of after bush bearing, it is not sufficient because of the possibility of high pressure caused by local contact. In this study, Hertzian contact condition was applied to evaluation of the local pressure for after bush bearing. To reduce the local maximum pressure, the height of the after bush bearing was controlled. It was found that local maximum pressure could be reduced effectively by taking a partial slope on the white metal of the aft bush bearing.

최근 태양전지에 대한 연구가 본격적으로 진행 중인 가운데 Local back contact 태양전지에 대한 연구가 새로운 이슈로 떠오르고 있다. LBC 구조의 태양전지는 후면 passivation에 대한 최적화 공정이 가장 중요하다. 후면 passivation으로 사용되는 물질로는 $SiO_2$, SiNx, $Al_2O_3$ 등의 산화막이 대표적이다. 본 연구에서는 LBC 구조 태양전지의 후면 passivation 박막으로 사용되는 $SiO_2$ 산화막의 공정가변에 따른 박막의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. $SiO_2$ 성장은 RTP를 사용하였다. 성장 온도 $850^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 진행하였으며, 4L/min의 $O_2$분위기에서 진행하였다. 공정 시간 5분 일 때 12.5nm, 15분 일 때 21.7nm의 두께의 박막을 성장 시킬 수 있었다. Carrier lifetime 확인 결과 박막의 두께가 얇을수록 lifetime이 향상함을 확인 할 수 있었고, C-V 측정을 통한 charge 비교를 통해 두께가 얇은 박막 일수록 더 적은 positive charge를 갖고있는 것을 확인 할 수 있었으며 이를 통해 passivation 효과가 우수함을 확인 할 수 있었다.

A gap conductance is very important factor which can affect nuclear fuel temperature. Especially, in case of an annular fuel, a gap conductance effect can lead an unexpected heat split phenomena which is caused by a large difference of an inner and outer gap conductance. The gap conductance mechanism is very complicated behavior due to the its strong dependency on microscopic factors such as a contact surface roughness, local contact pressure and local temperature. In this paper, for the decision of test temperature and pressure range, a procedure and calculation results of in-reactor fuel temperature and pressure analysis are summarized which can be applied to test equipment design and determination of test matrix. Based upon analysis results, it is concluded that the minimum and maximum test temperature are $300^{\circ}C$ and $530^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the maximum pellet/cladding interfacial contact pressure should be observed up to 45MPa.

This paper evaluates experimentally the explosion proof of fiber reinforced cement composite(FRCC) panels with various fibers of 2 % volume fraction subjected to contact explosions using an emulsion explosive. As a results, the proportion of the total damage in FRCC panels is not biased scabbing on the rear side with contrast to plain panels, which means that the local damage of FRCC panels was significantly controlled. The experimental results presented useful information for prediction of limited thickness on the local damage subjected to contact explosions through comparison with existing damage evaluation prediction equations.

Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the actual state about ultrasonic cleaning of soft contact lenses in local optical shops and evaluate the removal effect of protein deposit on soft contact lenses with different lens containers by ultrasonic cleaner for eyeglasses. Methods: The actual state about ultrasonic cleaning of soft contact lenses was surveyed in total 75 local optical shops in Seoul, Korea. The cleaning efficacy of different lens containers was compared by measuring the protein remained on ocufilcon D contact lenses after washing by an ultrasonic cleaner for eyeglasses. The changes on surfaces and wetting angles of ocufilcon D contact lenses by repeat ultrasonication were further investigated. Results: The main purpose to use ultrasonic cleaners in local optical shops was rapid cleaning. The ultrasonic cleaning efficacy of ocufilcon D contact lenses with glass containers was little higher than it with plastic containers, but was not significantly different. The changes on surfaces and wetting angles of ocufilcon D contact lenses in a plastic lens container by repeat ultrasonication such as 30 and/or 60 times were shown. Conclusions: There was not significant difference in cleaning efficacy between glass and plastic lens containers. However, repeat cleaning with ultrasonic cleaner for eyeglasses would be carefully considered since some significant changes in the parameters of lens surface and wetting angles were detected by repeat ultrasonification even when lens containers were used for ocufilcon D contact lens during ultrasonictions.

The use of skin whitening agents has been recently increased in various kinds of cosmetic products, although there were some reports that whitening agents might cause allergic contact dermatitis. A murine local lymph node assay (LLNA) has been developed as an alternative to guinea pigs for contact sensitization potential. This study was carried out to investigate the skin sensitization potential of three whitening agents, arbutin, azelaic acid, and kojic acid, by LLNA using a non-radiois-topic endpoint. Female Balb/c mice were exposed topically to a weak allergen, $\alpha$-hexylcinnamalde-hyde (HCA), and three whitening agents following LLNA protocol. Lymph node (LN) weight and cell proliferation in ears and auricular lymph node using bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) immunohistochemistry were evaluated. LN weights were significantly increased at the HCA group compared to the vehicle control. A weak allergen, HCA elicited 3-fold or greater increase in cell proliferation of lymph nodes as well as increase in cell proliferation of ear as measured by BrdU immunohistochemistry. However, in the case of skin whitening agent groups, there were no significant changes in LN weight and cell proliferation in the ear and lymph node of mice treated with 5, 10 and 20% of three whitening agents compared to the vehicle control. These results show that these three skin whitening agents may not have contact sensitization potentials at tested concentrations in Balb/c mice by LLNA.

A process map has been developed, which can identify the process conditions for weak mechanical bonding at the contact surface during the direct extrusion of a Cu-Ti bimetal bar. Bonding mechanism between Cu and Ti was assumed as a cold pressure welding. Then, the plastic deformation at the contact zone causes mechanical bonding and a new bonding criterion for pressure welding was developed as a function of the principal stretch ratio and normal pressure at the contact surface by analyzing micro local extrusion at the contact zone. Finite element analyses for extrusion of Cu-Ti bimetal bars were performed for various process conditions. The deformation history at the contact surface was traced and the proposed new bonding criterion was applied to predict whether the mechanical bonding at the Cu-Ti contact surface happens. Finally, a process map for the extrusion of Cu-Ti bimetal bar is suggested.

The distribution of current in the conductors influenced by the armature geometry and velocity is an important parameter for determining performance of an electromagnetic launcher(EML). the electric current in the early launching stage tends to flow on the outer surfaces of the conductors, resulting in very high local electric current density. However, the tendency for current to concentrate on the surface is driven by the velocity skin effect later in launching stage. The high current density produces high local heating and, consequently, increases armature wear which causes several defects on EML system. This paper investigates the effects of rail/armature geometry on current density distribution, launcher inductance gradient (L'), and contact force. Three geometrical parameters are used here to characterize the railgun system. These are the ratio of contact length to root length, relative position of contact leading edge to root trailing edge, and the ratio of rail overhang to the rail height. The distribution of current density, L', contact force between various configurations of the armature and the rail are analyzed and compared by using the EMAP3D program.
