The optimal replacement problem was investigated for a multi-state deteriorated system for which the true internal state cannot be observed directly except when the system breaks down completely. The internal state was assumed to be monitored incompletely by a monitor that gives information related to the true state of the system. The problem was formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process. The optimal procedure was found to be a monotone procedure with respect to stochastic increasing ordering of the state probability vectors under some assumptions. Limiting the optimal procedure to a monotone procedure would greatly reduce the tremendous amount of calculation time required to find the optimal procedure.

As the industrial society develops rapidly, the weight reduction and high strength are gradually demanded. In case of the welded joint for the rolling stock which receives the repeated load, the fracture can be easily occurred. However, the durability and fatigue characteristics can be improved if the shot peening technique is applied. The optimal peening process should be applied to the metal surface because the over peening can lower the durability of parts. Thus, the fatigue characteristics and Fractography of welded A6061-T6 alloy for a rolling stock were studied in the paper. The optimal peening condition and Fractography were examined. The experimental result show that over peening can lower fatigue life caused by micro crack, fold and incrustation. The fatigue life of welded A6061-T6 was tremendously improved.

본 논문에서는 DEA(Differential Evolution Algorithm)기법을 이용하여 트래버스 연삭의 최적 조건을 선정하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 최적 연삭 조건 선정을 위한 가격함수는 가공 경비, 생산율 및 표면 거칠기 등의 다중 함수식을 이용하였다. 또한 연삭 조건에 대한 구속 조건으로 열 손상 효과, 가공 툴의 강성, 연삭 휠 마모 상수 및 표면 거칠기 등을 고려하였다. 알고리즘의 구현은 산업현장에서 널리 사용되는 LabView소프트웨어를 사용하였다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 GA알고리즘의 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.

Generally, die polishing process occupies about 30 .approx. 50% of the whole die manufacturing time. However, die polshing has not been automated yet, since it needs a great deal of experience and skill. This study aims at development of an expert system for die polishing which gives such optimal parameters as tool and polishing conditions. Through experiments, polishing characteristics such as surface roughness, stock removal and scratch were analyzed quantitatively for each polishing tool, and a knowledge base for the expert system was established. Evaluation tests show that the developed system works well to suggest the optimal polishing conditions and it is very promising.

For the highly reliable products, an accelerated degradation test (ADT) is a useful tool which has been employed in industry to obtain reliability-related information within an affordable amount of time and cost. In an ADT, as all other reliability tests, it is important to carefully design the ADT beforehand to obtain estimates of the quantities of interest as precisely as possible. In this paper, optimal ADTs are developed assuming that the constant-stress loading method is employed and the degradation characteristic follows a Wiener process. Under the constraint that the total cost does not exceed a pre-specified budget, the stress levels, the number of test units allocated to each stress level and the number of measurement (termination time) are determined such that the asymptotic variance of the maximum likelihood estimator of the q-th quantile of the lifetime distribution at the use condition is minimized.

On this study, electrochemical polishing is adapted to ultra-fine surface for semiconductor large radius gas-tube. The system which buffing and electrochemical polishing can be performed simultaneously was constructed in connection with developing exclusive system. Based on existing papers and the research of background, electrode gap and electrolyte flow were fixed. Current density and electrochemical precision time were chosen as variables. On this study, it is objected to find optimal precision condition and precision variables on the in-process electrochemical polishing.

Rather than traditional manufacturing processes, miniature manufacturing processes usually require sophisticated equipments and characteristics of the processes of high cost and of low productivity. Contrarily, miniature stamping process can be realized in a low cost high productivity with relatively inexpensive equipments. In the meso scale, mechanical properties, especially work hardening characteristics, are discovered to be statically scattered and size dependent by intensive experimental and numerical investigations, which make the stamping process hard to apply to the miniature manufacturing. In this study, dual purpose experimental device that can be used for both miniature scale tensile test and miniature scale stamping by simple change of attachment has been developed. For the tensile test, the elongation has been measured with a combined use of a CCD camera and a linear encoder in order to account for the possibility of slippage between specimen and the grip and to ensure the accuracy of the measurement, while load has been measured with a load cell. To satisfy the required material properties for stamping, optimal annealing condition has been found by examining the microstructure of annealed specimen.

This study deals with the laser cutting of stencil for the PCB. The most important aim of this study is to determine optimal conditions which make good-qualify stencil in Nd:YAG laser cutting. We made an experiment according to various variables (power. type of mask. gas pressure, cutting speed, and pulse width) and analyzed the cutting characteristics (surface roughness, kerf width. dross) . Each variable has optimal value for good-qualify cut edge under fixed condition. And neural network after learning experimental data with a million time iteration could predict surface roughness of cut edge under arbitrary condition approximately.

In the present study, Taguchi method is used to determine the rough region first, followed by RSM technique to determine the exact optimum value during milling on a machining center. A region reducing algorithm is applied to narrow down the region of the Taguchi method for RSM. The result from the Taguchi method is fed to train the artificial neural network (ANN), whose optimum value is used to drive the region reducing algorithm. The proposed algorithm is tested under different cutting condition and results show that the introduced algorithm works well during milling process. It is also shown that theoretically obtained optimal cutting condition is very close to experimentally obtained result.
