Domestic materials & components industry is making a shift from quantitative growth to qualitative growth, while the paradigm of a future society is changing rapidly to energy, mobility, smartification and etc. The main features of materials & components industry are analyzed broadly based on three aspects that are: ① industry Status, ② the value chain structure, ③ the competitiveness. With regard to the national aspect, it is shown that the number of an export and a trade surplus increased consistently after the government advanced the policy on materials & components and Korea's trade deficit with Japan has been decreased. Moreover, the state's export ranking increased from tenth place in 2001 into sixth place in 2017, dedicating to the growth of a national economy. The analysis of the chain value indicates that specifications of an end product are set when the materials & components are combined with manpower, infrastructure and technologies. In terms of the competitiveness, it requires a long time and high costs to develop technologies on materials and it is important for components to have a process innovation and credibility wired. Following the industry structure with priority given on materials, Jeonnam Province accounts for 14.8% of national material production. As a result of analyzing Jeonnam's export competitiveness, it is measured that a serious polarization exists, revealing there are 6 major technology industries by 11 categories for materials & components, Jeonnam has presented 6 major materials & components considering the key industry and the new industry in future to remedy the mentioned problem so far, and plans to knock on the industry development through 10 different strategies.

The development of core technologies in the 4th Industrial Revolution, such as artificial intelligence, big data, and the intelligent Internet of Things, promote digital transformation and intelligence of the manufacturing industry. To realize them, there is an increasing demand for materials, components, and equipment needed for final goods. In particular, the expansion of global value chain instability due to changes in the external environment, such as the U.S.-China trade dispute, Japan's export regulations, and Covid-19 pandemic, increases the importance of strengthening the materials, components, and equipment industry in the global market. Thus, this study presents a strategic direction for securing global industrial competitiveness of materials, components, and equipment using Michael Porter's diamond model approach.

Display industry in Korea has been rapidly developing over 20 years, now taking the top-class leading position in the world. Nevertheless, many previous studies have mainly focused on major panel set makers. To overcome the drawbacks, this study focuses on supplier companies in the upstream of display industry such as materials, components, and equipments sectors. The research method used in this study is an industry value chain perspective combined with architectural innovation approach. Display panel is produced through fabrication process and modular process, each having a different characteristics of process architecture. This research figured out that there are quite a different development characteristics between materials and components suppliers and equipment suppliers. The number and revenue of materials and components suppliers were quite larger than equipments suppliers. However, the former has been growing mainly in the field of modular process, having a very weak position in the field of fabrication process. On the contrary, equipments suppliers have been showing a continuously growing pattern in the field of fabrication process. The R&D expenditures between these two kinds of suppliers showed a similar pattern. The fabrication process of display panel production is characterized as a highly integral architecture characteristics, so as to be a strong barriers to local suppliers, resulting less development of materials and components suppliers in Korea.

The Construction industry in Yemen confronts many development constraints, such as the inadequate implementation of appropriate building materials and labour construction technologies. Thus, this research looks over building materials and labour construction technologies used on the local housing construction projects by verifying the percentage of construction expenditure consumed by the main construction components (Materials, Labour and Overhead and Profit), along with the implemented construction technologies. The paper conducts a survey to acquire the cost distribution of the construction main components. The outcomes of the survey were discussed; the discussion was supported by literature on similar issues from some countries. The outcomes confirmed the relatively limited percentage in labour cost and profit, and the elevated percentage of construction materials cost, which are because of the excessive and inappropriate use of materials. What's more, established that the excessively redundant unskilled labours are not effectively engaged in the construction activities, this is due to the tendency of the market in using labour-base technologies. This paper is to recommend a suitable policies and strategies has to be used to decrease cost by using efficiently appropriate construction practice and local materials, moreover take advantage of excessive labour to reduce unemployment.

The Korean economy has undergone growth based on manufacturing end products. The Korean government aims to advance industry by strengthening the materials and components industry, which is attracting more attention in terms of maintaining the competitiveness of existing key industries, and fostering new industries required in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Despite this importance, there is insufficient related research on the efficient R&D of the materials and components industry. This study analyzed the R&D efficiency. In addition, exploratory research was conducted on the impact of corporate size and type of cooperation on R&D efficiency. Output variables were set to reflect economic performance and the empirical analysis revealed that overall R&D efficiency is low. Small firms were found to perform better than large firms in terms of firm-size, and the efficiency of business-university-research cooperation is worse than other types of cooperation. This study is exploratory research considering the materials and components industry, and the results provide implications for research institutions and regarding types of cooperation. This is expected to help develop polices for qualitative growth and R&D strategies for investment and allocation.

Since the late 20th century, there has been rapid development in the display industry. Only 30 years ago, we used big cathode ray tube displays with poor resolution, but now most people use televisions or smartphones with very high-quality displays. People now want images that are more realistic, beyond the two-dimensional images that exist on the flat screen, and digital holography-one of the next-generation displaysis expected to meet that need. The most important parameter that determines the performance of a digital hologram is the pixel pitch. The smaller the pixel pitch, the higher the level of hologram implementation possible. In this study, we fabricated the world-smallest $3-{\mu}m$-pixel-pitch holographic backplane based on the spatial light modulator technology. This panel could display images with a viewing angle of more than $10^{\circ}$. Furthermore, a comparative study was conducted on the fabrication processes and the corresponding holographic results from the large to the small pixel-pitch panels.

To date Korean electronic industry has held a position of the first rank both in productions and exports among the nation's industries. However, it is gradually losing its competitive foundation in the world market owing both to the weakening in price competition by least developed among developing countries(LDDC) and to the lack in technological competition with industrially advanced countries. Specifically it is worried about an industrial subordination to industrially advanced countries owing to an evasion of components supply, control of amount of materials, and the evasion of kernel technology transfer etc. As the condition has developed, both the government and the electronic industry in July of this year came to jointly establish a research and development center for electronic components for the purpose of rehabilitating the electronic industry and accordingly strengthen the export industry which has been and continuance to be vital to our nation.

Stress and displacement fields of a Mode III crack propagating along the normal to gradient in an orthotropic functionally gradient materials (OFGM), which has (1) an exponential variation of shear modulus and density, and (2) linear variation of shear modulus with a constant density, are derived. The equations of motion in OFGM are developed and solution to the displacement and stress fields for a propagating crack at constant speed though an asymptotic analysis. The first three terms in expansion of stress and displacement are derived to explicitly bring out the influence of nonhomogeneity. When the FGM constant ${\zeta}$ is zero or $r{\rightarrow}0$, the fields for OFGM are almost same as the those for homogeneous orthotropic material. Using the stress components, the effects of nonhomogeneity on stress components are discussed.
