A new Monte Carlo (MC) simulator for electron beam lithography process in the multi-layer resists and compound semiconductor substrates has been developed in order to fabricate and develop the high-speed PHEMT devices for millimeter-wave frequencies. For the accurate and efficient calculation of the transferred and deposited energy distribution to the multi-component and multi-layer targets by electron beams, we newly modeled for the multi-layer resists and heterogeneous multi-layer substrates. By this model, the T-shaped gate fabrication process by electron beam lithography in the PHEMT device has been simulated and analyzed. The simulation results are shown along with the SEM observations in the T-gate formation process, which verifies the new model in this paper.

The effects of texturing and anti-reflection coating on the reflection properties of multi-crystalline silicon solar cell have been investigated. The chemical solutions of alkaline and acidic etching solutions were used for texturing at the surface of multi-crystalline Si wafer. Experiments were performed with various temperature and time conditions in order to determine the optimized etching condition. Alkaline etching solution was found inadequate to the texturing of multi-crystalline Si due to its high reflectance of about 25%. The reflectance of Si wafer texturing with acidic etching solution showed a very low reflectance about 10%, which was attributed to the formation of homogeneous. Also, deposition of ITO anti-reflection coating reduced the reflectance of multi-crystalline si etched with acidic solution($HF+HNO_3$) to 2.6%.

In the present study, the multi-nozzle electrospinning process is investigated for the fabrication of uniform polymer nanofiber mats. Electrospinning has been one of the simple and efficient methods to manufacture polymer nanofibers and their mats. Although a typical electrospinning has many advantages such as simple system and operation, various materials, and cost-effectiveness, a relatively low productivity prevents it from being used in practical applications. Thus, the multi-nozzle electrospinning system with the adjustable nozzle position and rotating drum collector is designed and produced in this study. In particular, the effects of the inter-nozzle distance and spatial arrangement of nozzles on the uniformity of the electrospun nanofibers are investigated. With this multi-nozzle electrospinning process, the maximum flow rate of the supplied polymer solution for a uniform electrospinning increases, which indicates the enhanced productivity.

Many processing times for fabricating complex shaped parts by near net shape process such as thixoforming or semi-solid forming, are required due to the time for die design, induction heating and forming process. Therefore, for the thixoforming process, multi-capacity induction heating process is very important due to the reduction of the processing time and cost. It is indispensable to adopt a power-time heating pattern which manages to conciliate complete eutectic melting at the core with limited overheating at the periphery. The total reheating time is thus dependent on billet diameter; in inches$(pm20%)$. Typically, high frequency is used for the rapid reheating of the billet to the eutectic temperature range and low frequency for the remelting of the desired fraction of liquid and for the radial homogeneization of the liquid fraction. So in this study, the multi-capacity induction heating conditions of ALTHIX 86s alloy to reduce the processing time and cost would be proposed. The suitability of multi-capacity induction heating conditions would be verified through the comparison to Garat's data.

The outer race of a constant velocity (CV) joint having six inner ball grooves has traditionally been manufactured by multi-stage warm forging, which includes forward extrusion, upsetting, backward extrusions, necking, ironing and sizing, and machining. In the current study, a multi-stage cold forging process is examined and an assessment for replacing and modifying the conventional multi-stage warm forging is made. The proposed procedure is simplified to the backward extrusion of the conventional process, and the sizing and necking are combined into a single sizing-necking step. Thus, the forging surface of the six ball grooves can be obtained without additional machining. To verify the suitability of the proposed process, a 3-dimensional numerical simulation on each operation was performed. The forging loads were also predicted. In addition, a structural integrity evaluation for the tools was carried out. Based on the results, it is shown that the dimensional requirements of the outer race can be well met.

In establishing Multi-Stage Machining process inspection procedures, however, where costs of inspection md defective products are often directly measurable, a better method for formulating inspection plans is available. If one of the primary interest of a manufacturing concern is to maximize profits, then optimal inspection plans ought to be selected so as to minimize costs. This paper is aimed to find a methodology of optimal inspection planning in Multi-stage Machining process and to develope a proper algorithm.

This article is aimed primarily at establishing a process planning method for complex circular shells. For the deep drawing of complex shaped shell, the optimum process design is required to reduce the trial cost improve the quality, increase the productivity and shorten the delivery. The present approach which is related to the optimum process planning is based on the empirical knowledge through trial and error in the industrial field. In order to check the validity and the effectiveness of proposed work a sample process design has been applied to the multi-stepped deep drawing of com-plex shell considering the process variables such as drawing rate radius and blank development. In particular the difference between the limiting drawing rate and to optimum drawing rate has been discussed and the usefulness of present suggestion has been shown.

Process design of multi-step wire drawing process, conducted by means of finite element analysis and ANN(Artificial Neural Network) has been considered. The investigated problem involves the ade-quate selection of the drawing die angle and the correspondent reduction rate in the condition of desired initial and final diameter. Combinations of the process parameters which are used in finite ele-ment simulation are selected by using the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array. Also the orthogonal array and the results of finite element simulation which are related to the process energy are used as train data of ANN. In this study it is shown that the application of new technique using ANN and Othogonal array table to the process design of metal forming process is useful method.

In the multi-pass shape drawing process, the appropriate process design is very important to produce sound products. The reduction ratio, die angle, and the intermediate die shape are very important process variable of the multi-pass shape drawing. The aim of this study is the determination of the reduction ratio, die angle, and the intermediate die shape of the 2 pass shape drawing process for producing steering spline shaft. In this study, FE analysis, Taguchi method, and ANN(artificial neural network) were applied to determine the appropriate reduction ratio, die angle, and intermediate die shape. After the determination of the process variables, FE analysis and drawing experiment were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the determined process variables. The dimensional accuracy of the final drawn spline shaft was evaluated by using 3D surface profiler and 3D laser digitizing system.
