  • When using the FDM to create a 3D object, a thermoplastic filament is heated to its melting point and then extruded layer by layer. Although the FDM printing process has many advantages, its accuracy, and surface finish are not satisfactory. In recent years, much research has been devoted to improving the accuracy of the FDM printing process. The temperature difference between the nozzle and the interior of the chamber of a 3D printer is one of the important parameters affecting the printing process. In this study, we propose a methodology to reduce this temperature difference through design improvement. In addition, we elucidate how this design improvement affects product quality. The FDM printing process is conventionally carried out in a closed chamber. However, in this study, an open heating system is used to reduce the temperature. The FDM printing processes were simulated using FEM analysis.

  • Currently, electric furnace oxide slag is mostly used for soil or road use due to its nature. Although electric furnace oxidation slag is an industrial byproduct, not a circulating aggregate, the shortcomings of electric furnace oxidation slag are gradually being resolved due to the development of technology, and it is said that electric furnace oxidation slag is enough to be used as aggregates in light of research and technology conditions outside of Korea. However, there are difficulties in expanding construction and application, given that the current standard for electric furnace oxid slag only defines recycling purposes and does not have specific regulations. Therefore, institutional supplementation is needed to utilize oxidation slag as electricity. In this study, the laws and system related to oxidation slag by electricity are reviewed, laws related to recycled aggregate are examined, and measures for improvement are proposed.

  • This study aims at analyzing the management strategy and performance of companies that have been pursuing Generational Diversity. The management strategies were examined in terms of production, organizational structure and skill development. Performance was then evaluated using Balanced Scorecard (BSC). We selected four Japanese companies that practice Generational Diversity between the younger(age less then 34) and older generation(age older then 65). Our findings suggest the following. The common management strategies of the four companies include 1) creating generation-diverse teams 2) ensuring flexible work arrangements and 3) providing skill training programs. These strategies have yield positive outcomes such as sales increase, cost reduction (financial perspective) and expansion of the market share (customer perspective). Non-financial performance includes improvement of product and service quality (internal business perspective) and skill improvement of both the young and the old workers (learning and growth perspective). This study provides practical implications to domestic companies for their successful management of generational diversity in workplace.

  • The purpose of this study is to improve the operation of shopping mall by examining the effect of service characteristics of Greenanum on customer satisfaction, repurchase and recommendation intention. The hypothesis was verified with SPSS22.0 and PROCESS macro 3.5. As a result, some hypotheses were supported between satisfaction, repurchase, and recommendation for service characteristics. Second, positive effects were found between satisfaction and repurchase, and recommendation intention. Third, a mediating effect appeared. Implications include improvement of low site awareness, benchmarking, and product quality improvement. In the future, it will be necessary to study the differences in the various characteristics of the products sold rather than the differentiation of the shopping mall itself.

  • In this Paper, we have Improved the Manufacturing Process of Liquid Aluminum Sulfate using the Design of Automated Measurement Systems. The Manufacturing Process of Liquid Aluminum Sulfate uses a Large Weight. The Quality of a Product Depends Highly on the Proportion of the Raw Material Input in the Production Process. Therefore, it is Very Important to Accurately Measure the Amount of Raw Material. For Automation Design, Load Cell Sensor which can Measure Large Weight Accurately and PLC Technology which is most used in Automation Process are Applied. The Content of Aluminum Oxide in the Aluminum Sulfate Produced before the Automation Design Varies from 8.023% to 8.250%. However, after Automation Design, the Amount of Change from 8.09% to 8.19% was Greatly Reduced. As a Result, we could Reduce the Quality Defect rate Due to Weighing Errors and Reduce Safety Accidents by Applying Automation System.

  • Increasing ash content of the paper is one of the most effective methods for saving raw materials and steam consumption and improving optical properties and better print quality. However, the increase of filler loading or filler content using a conventional wet end system is limited due to severe loss in strength properties, affecting runnability and product quality. This is because the filler has no ability to make bonding with cellulosic fibers. Therefore, if the technology to give filler the bonding ability is developed, the ash content of the paper can be increased more than ever. This study was carried out to modify PCC by coating its surface with starch contributing to better bonding with fibers. To prepare the modified PCC, cationic starch was selected as a polymer and then pretreatment was done by mixing PCC and cationic starch. Consequently, the pretreated PCC contributed to higher tensile strength, stiffness and opacity than the conventional filler, such as GCC and untreated PCC. However, CIE whiteness and ISO brightness decreased slightly compared to conventional fillers.

  • Objective: Ensiling is a simple and effective method for long-term preservation; however, less information exists about the ensilability characteristics of garlic stalk (GS). Therefore, the objectives were to examine the ensiling feasibility of GS. Methods: The GS was ensiled alone or inoculated with Lactobacillus plantarum KU5 in the presence or absence of 5% molasses and ensiled for 7, 14, and 28 d. As an alternative storage method, GS was co-ensiled with wet citrus pulp (CP) at different proportions (GS:CP: 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, and 40:60). Analysis was made on physicochemical, fermentative, and nutritional parameters. Results: The GS was found to be a biomass which is difficult to ensile. A combination of microbial inoculant and molasses was successful in the improvement of the silage fermentation quality of GS. Co-ensiling of GS with wet CP at the mixing ratio of 50:50 provided the most desirable silage fermentation parameters, including the substantial lactic acid formation, low final pH, minor effluent loss, and the more favorable organoleptic properties. Conclusion: Co-ensiling GS with CP appears to be a simple and viable method of conservation, enabling the more efficient utilization of these by-product resources over a prolonged period.
