The current study performed formability analysis of a heat exchanger separator for an electric vehicle to apply a high-strength aluminum sheet based on parametric analysis. Mechanical properties for sheet metal forming simulation were evaluated by tensile test, bulge test, and Nakajima test. Two-stage crash forming was established by considering the mass production process using conventional low-strength aluminum sheets. In this study, FEM for the two-stage forming process was conducted to optimize the corner radius and height for improving the formability. In addition, the possibility of a one-stage forming process application was confirmed through FEM. The prototype of the sample was manufactured as FEM results to validate the parametric analysis. Finally, this result can provide a one-stage forming process design method using the high-strength aluminum sheet for weight reduction of a heat exchanger separator for an electric vehicle.

The aim of this study is to manufacture an aluminum pipe yoke of automotive steering system for lightweight. In a multistage cold forging process for aluminum pipe yoke, the surface defects frequently occur due to excessive deformation or friction during extrusion process for forming hollow pipe part. It is import to reduce the friction between the material and the forging die. This study investigated a multistage forging process with sliding die to reduce friction for aluminum pipe yoke. After evaluating by FE analysis, the forging experiment with the sliding die was carried out. As a result, it was possible to manufacture a sound aluminum pipe yoke.

In this study, we carry out economic and technical feasibility study for treatment process of waste solvent such as SD waste solution and stripper solution from LCD manufacturing process. Extensive screening work has been done for selecting the best extraction solvent. As a result, it is shown that $CHCl_3$ is the most adequate extraction solvent for separation and recovery of both SD waste solvent and stripper waste. Rigorous simulation study has been carried out for extraction process and distillation process as a candidate of waste solvent treatment. The result shows that the solvent extraction process is more beneficial than the simple distillation process.

The goal of PAT (Process Analytical Technology) is to build quality into products through better understanding and control of manufacturing processes, rather than merely testing the quality of the end product. Pharmaceutical manufacturers are trying to develop and implement new technologies in pharmaceutical production and quality control for real-time measurements of critical product and process parameters. Characterization of manufacturing process through experimental design, for evaluation of the effect of product and process variables, represents an integral part of the PAT framework. However, the publications regarding real PAT application to pharmaceutical process are very limited and the technologies are confidential as well. In this review, the case studies related to PAT are shown with real applications from a pharmaceutical company. Additionally, various applications of PAT on the developing stage are introduced with high analytical technologies for the improvement of quality control on manufacturing process.

It appears that many companies have made good results by using information technology strategy and business process renovation simultaneously about information technology promotion lately. So this study divides the construct into information technology orientation and business process orientation and sets up business performance as a dependent variable about IT promotion to show whether business performances is high when companies use IT strategy and business process renovation simultaneously about IT promotion. According to this assumption, the information orientation affects business performances. Also it investigated that a interaction with information technology orientation and business process orientation makes a better beneficial effect. Summing up, this will come to the result that information technology orientation with business process orientation makes a better business performances than information technology.

Heavy oil residue upgrading process was being used in conventional refinery process. Recently, as the importance of non conventional energy development is growing up, the commercial projects of heavy oil upgrading are getting more active than before. For having competitive business model in the resource competition, non conventional energy development should be considered as an important business strategy. In developing oil sands, extra heavy oil, and shale gas, canadian oil sands and extra heavy oil have great importance in substitution of conventional oil consumption. In oil sands development, the bitumen, which is extracted from oil sands, has great value after upgrading or refining process. Similar process is being used current conventional refinery process. The bitumen is highly viscous hydrocarbon. This bitumen includes impurities which can not be treated in conventional refinery process. As this reason, specified process is needed in bitumen or extra heavy oil upgrading process. Moreover, there will be additional specified facilities in the process of production, transportation and marketing. In oil sands, there are various kinds of commercial upgrading process. Extraction, dilution, coking and cracking method were being used commercially.

The concept of the Metaverse has been around not only for play but also for daily use. The interest in Metaverse is increasing, and various industries such as medicine, media, and financial started to use the new technology for diverse purposes. In addition, interest in the Metaverse is increasing in the architectural industry, but not much research has been done yet. Recently, some studies started to study focusing on the architectural design of Metaverse and the technological characteristics of Metaverse. However, there are limited studies about the utilization of the Metaverse in the architectural design process or construction process. From this perspective, the study aims to analyze the applicability of the Metaverse in the architectural design process through Metaverse case studies. In order to accomplish the research goal, the study classified user experience and technology of Metaverse in the literature review and Metaverse use in other industries such as commercial, medical, media entertainment, and construction industry. Then, this study analyzes six representative Metaverse platforms according to the application of Metaverse in the architectural design process. Finally, this study discussed the future direction and potential of Metaverse application in the Architectural design process.

Many Korean companies wanted to improve technological competitiveness and business performance radically through technology leadership initiatives. In-depth case studies about successful Korean technological innovation in the technology generation stage have potential to minimize Korea and developing country firms' trial and error when they are pursuing new technological innovation in the technology generation stage. There are few studies about developing country firms' technological innovations in the technology generation stage and especially process innovation studies are far less performed compared to product innovation studies. This is an exploratory study of POSCO's FINEX process technology innovation in the technology generation stage. These are my findings from this study. Firstly, leadership innovation in the technology generation stage is not a continuous development of catch-up innovation in the technology internalization stage and only top managements can initiate highly risky leadership innovation. Secondly, developing country firms which lacked in technological capability overcomes difficulties in the early stage through complementary technological collaboration with R&D first-movers. Thirdly, this company become a technology leader in spite of late entry in technology development race with developed country firms through rapid scale-ups.
