Geckos have a unique ability to cling to ceilings and walls utilizing dry adhesion. Their foot pads are covered by a large number of small hairs (setae) that contain many branches per seta with a lower level of spatulae. Their fibrillar structure is the primary source of high adhesion. In this study, we construct the adhesion design database for biomimetic adhesive system. A simple idealized fibrillar structure consisting of single array of beams is modeled. The fibers are assumed as oriented cylindrical cantilever beams with spherical tip. We consider three necessary conditions; buckling, fracture and sticking of fiber structure, which constrain the allowed geometry. The adhesion analysis is performed for the attachment system in contact with rough surfaces with different s values for different main design variables-fiber radius, aspect ratio and material elastic modulus and so on. The developed adhesion design databases are useful for understanding biological systems and for guiding of fabrication of the biomimetic attachment system.

In this paper, a theoretical analysis is presented on the mechanics of the grinding by hemispheric type electroplated CBN wheel. The grinding forces acting on a single grain were calculated from its geometry by assuming the abrasive grain is spherical. Then. the total grinding forces were obtained by estimating the number of acting abrasive grains and the area of contact. The model includes the grinding variables such as wheel speed. feed speed. depth of cut, and grinding wheel positions. Experiments were also carried out to compare with the analytical results. The experimental results were found to be in good agreement with the analytical ones.

It is expected that the size of welding defect affects the mechanical performance of welded medium density polyethylene (MDPE) pipe joints. In this study, butt fusion welded MDPE pipe joints with a single spherical or planar defect of various sizes were studied using experimental crush testing and also by finite element method. The crush test showed that the mechanical performance of crush was not affected by the size and geometry of a single welding defect when the defect size was increased to 45% of the pipe's wall thickness. The simulation results indicated that the effect of the single welding defect on the Von Mises stress distribution near the defect explained the reason of the test results.

Many microelectronic devices are miniaturizing the capacitance density and the size of the capacitor. Along with this miniaturization of electronic circuits, tantalum (Ta) capacitors have been on the market due to its large demands worldwide and advantages such as high volumetric efficiency, low temperature coefficient of capacitance, high stability and reliability. During a tantalum capacitor manufacturing process, arc welding has been used to weld base frame and sub frame. This arc welding may have limitations since the downsizing of the weldment depends on the size of welding electrode and the contact time may prevent from improving productivity. Therefore, to solve these problems, this study applies laser spot welding to weld nickel (Ni) and Au-Sn-Ni alloy using CW IR fiber laser with lap joint geometry. All laser parameters are fixed and the only control variable is laser irradiance time. Four different shapes, such as no melting upper workpiece, asymmetric spherical-shaped weldment, symmetric weldment, and, excessive weldment, are observed. This shape may be due to different temperature distribution and flow pattern during the laser spot cutting.

For the structural integrity of large and complex structures such as railway vehicle, the in-field diagnosis of mechanical properties of the structures is needed, and especially, the mechanical characteristics of the weldment must be carefully evaluated. But, conventional standard testing methods having destructive procedures are not applicable to in-field assessment of mechanical property variations within weldment because they needs the limitations of specimen size and geometry. In this paper, to overcome this problems, the advanced indentation technique (AIS) is introduced for simple and non-destructive/in-field testing of weldment of industrial structures. This test measures indentation load-depth curve during indentation and analyzes the mechanical properties related to deformation and fracture. First of all, flow properties such as yield strength, tensile strength and work hardening index can be evaluated through the analysis of the deformation behavior beneath the spherical indenter. Additionally, case studies of advanced indentation techniques are introduced.

구형 해저지형과 이안제를 가진 해안에 대한 완경사방정식의 해를 구하는데 반복기법(Conjugate Gradient Method, Panchang et al., 1991)을 사용하였다. 지형 및 구조물로 인한 파랑의 전파변형에 대한 계산결과가 실험치와도 잘 일치하였다. 종내 과도한 기억용량 때문에 광역에는 완경사방정식을 그대로 사용하기가 어려웠지만 이 기법을 사용하면 그런 어려움은 해결된 것으로 판단된다. 특히 소요되는 계산시간이 짧고 복잡한 지형 및 구조물에 대해서도 별 어려움 없이 적용할 수 있는 것이 큰 장점이다.

We examine theoretically the properties of the force on Mie particles induced by evanescent fields at a system of multilayer films (including a metal film), at which the surface plasmon resonance is excited by a p-polarized plane electromagnetic wave. An expression of the surface plasmon-coupled evanescent fields produced in Kretschmann (or Sarid) geometry is expanded in terms of vector spherical wave functions, while multiple reflections between the Mie particle and the metal boundary are taken into account. The Cartesian components of the force on Mie particles by the evanescent fields are analytically formulated and numerically evaluated. The force components are increased by one or two orders of magnitude at metal boundaries over those at dielectric boundaries. As a result, we can confirm the possibility of stable manipulation or rotation of a finite-sized object by forces of surface plasmon-coupled evanescent fields.

MAO ceramic coatings were prepared on AZ61 magnesium alloy for various processing times ranging from 5 to 60 min, in an electrolyte solution based on silicate-fluoride. The mechanical, electrochemical and, microstructural properties and the phase compositions of the coating layers were investigated. In this work, unlike previous studies, coatings with high amounts of the $Mag_2SiO_4$ phase were formed which contained small amounts of MgO and $MgF_2$ at a processing condition of 30 min. A microstructural analysis revealed that the porosity of the coatings was reduced considerably with an increase in the processing time, together with a change in the pore geometry from an irregular to a spherical shape. Potentiodynamic polarization and mechanical testing results showed that the coatings acquired after a processing time of 30 min were superior to all of the others.

근적외영역의 타이탄 측광영상에서 나타나는 주연감광(Limb Darkening) 및 주연증광(Limb Brightening) 현상의 원인을 설명하기 위해 구면기하(spherical geometry)에 의한 효과 외에 헤이즈(haze) 자체의 성질 변화량을 추정해 본다. 근적외영역의 강한 메탄 흡수 밴드 부근에서 타이탄의 대기를 관측하면 파장에 따라 표면 부근에서 성층권 사이의 정보를 얻을 수 있으며, 이를 복사전달모델과 비교해 대기 중에 존재하는 연무 입자의 성질을 유추할 수 있다. 관측자료는 2006년 2월 Gemini/North Observatory의 Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectrometer(NIFS)를 이용해 얻은 측 분광 자료를 사용하였다. NIFS의 공간분해능은 화소당 0.05"로, 타이탄의 적도부분을 약 17화소로 분해할 수 있으므로, 각 지역별로 분광선 모델을 만들어 관측자료와 비교하는 데에 용이하였다.

입자수송방정식의 각분할해석법에서 입자흐름방향을 묘사하는 각방향에 대한 각분할집합이 고정된 값이 아니고 각입자속으로 조종되는 각요소법에 근거하여 방사선차폐해석 목적의 전산프로그램(TDET)를 2차원직각좌표계에 대해서 개발하였다. 산란선원항의 각의존성은 Spherical Harmonics Series Expansion으로 해석하였고 입자의 에너지 의존성은 다중에너지군으로 처리하였다. 3 종류의 Benchmark 시험을 통해서 TDET 프로그램을 검증하였다. 평판형 등방적 선원을 가진 사방흡수체에 대한 해석에서 TDET 해석결과가 MORSE-CG 해석결과에 잘 일치하고. 각분할법으로 해석할때 나타나는 Ray effect를 DOT 4.3 보다 잘 치 유하고 있다. 차폐체 내에 좁은 Vacuum duct가 있는 문제의 해석에서 TDET는 MORSE-CG와 마찬가지로 duct를 통한 streaming leak-age에 대해서 분명하고 현저한, 그리고 DOT 4.3보다 매우 훌륭한 해석결과를 보여주고 있다. 원자로차폐구조물 규모에 대해, 2 에너지군, 등방적 산란 및 선형 비등방 산란의 경우에 대해서 해석한 결과 각분할법으로 계산하여 제시하고 있는 기준치에서는 여러 mesh들에 걸쳐 넓은 규모의 Ray effect를 나타내고 있는데, TDET에 의한 해석결과에서는 이웃 mesh들 간에 미세한 Ray effect를 나타내고 있다.
