This technology employs a method of forming a single-ply PLUS waterproofing sheet layer comprised of applying a single-ply synthetic polymer layer on a vibrating structure (steel frame, RC) or an inclined surface by using a T joint lap-filling coil and an embedded metal coated sheet. The T - joint reinforcing lap-filling coil was used to block the ingress channel of the rainwater by applying the material in the vulnerable area where the three sides of the waterproof sheet overlapped. Conventional waterproofing techniques have a problem in that the waterproof sheet is pierced because the end portion of the waterproof sheet applied to the vertical portion is fixed by a nail, and the sealant applied to the end portion of the sheet cannot easily secure long-term waterproof durability due to the influence of the external environment. Therefore, the developed technology secured the waterproof durability against the vertical part by using the embedded metal sheet. In addition, automatic hot-air fusing is used to improve the quality of waterproof construction and point fixation method using fixed hardware. This is a technology that is not significantly restricted in the high degradation level regions of domestic waterproof construction environments in Korea such as low-temperature environment, wet floor.

The optical performance of the mirror for satellite camera is highly dependent on the adhesive properties between the mirror and its support. In order to design a mirror with high optical performance, the mechanical properties of adhesives should be well defined. In this research, the mechanical properties of three kinds of space adhesives are studied. In case of the materials which show nearly incompressible behavior such as space adhesives, it is important to measure shear modulus which governs deviatoric stress components. Shear moduli of the adhesives are determined by using single lap adhesively bonded joint. For the shear tests, several points have been selected from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$ which is operating temperature range of the adhesive. The shear modulus of each adhesive is expressed as a function of temperature. Characteristics of the adhesives are discussed regarding their temperature sensitivity. The analysis results of RMS wavefront error w.r.t shear modulus are presented.

This study deals with a series of experimental investigations on multi-stage cold forging of an outer race used for a constant velocity (CV) joint with six inner ball grooves. The multi-stage cold forging, which consists of forward extrusion, upsetting, backward extrusion, and combined sizing-necking including ironing, was used to produce a prototype of the outer race. The cold forging tools such as forging punches and dies required in this multi-stage cold forging were also designed and fabricated. For the combined sizing-necking, especially, the longitudinally six-segmentallized punches were developed to easily eject from the necked inner groove of the outer race with consideration of the operating mechanism. Spheroidized SCr420H billet was used in the experimental study. To verify the suitability of the proposed process, the obtained parts were obtained from each forging operation, and the geometries were compared with the target dimensions. It was confirmed that the outer race with six inner ball grooves was well forged by adopting the proposed multi-stage cold forging, and the dimensional accuracy of the forged outer race matched well with the requirements.

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.

The yoke, a component of conventional motor-driven power steering system, often contains welding defects from its manufacturing process. To eliminate these defects, the precision cold forging process has been tried. In this study, the double-action complex forging has been used to manufacture a torsion joint yoke. The backward extrusion proved faster than the forward extrusion in forging of the product. The double-action complex forging process utilized an upper die composed of a punch, a punch guide, a disc spring and a coil spring. The forged material pushes up the punch guide, and then the disc spring and the coil spring balances the backward extrusion force. Consequently, the flow of material was essentially in the forward direction, resulting in a successful forging operation. The forging load of Al 6061-T6 was higher than that of the automotive structural hot rolled plate.

Durability of rubber dust cover in the ball joint for automotive suspension parts is analyzed by FEM and compared with experimental data. Upper open area of ball joint is sealed by dust cover for preventing outflow of the lubricating oil and intrusion of send, dust, water, etc. This rubber cover undergoes repeated loadings such as tension and compression while the car is running. Analysis about rubber material needs to consider every kinds of nonlinearities arise in finite element analysis, which are geometric nonlinearity due to large displacement and small strain, materially nonlinearity and nonlinear boundary condition such as contact. The deformation behavior of dust cover is analysed by using the commercial finite element program MARC. In the study, this program could solve these kinds of nonlinear analysis accurately. Finite element model of dust cover is considered as 3-dimensional half model based on 2-dimensional axisymmetric model. Material property of rubber is modeled by Ogden model and input data for calculation takes form uniaxial tension test of rubber specimen. The final object of the study is obtaining the design specification of dust covers and the result of analysis should be a useful data to design of rubber cover.

디지털 트윈이란 현실 세계의 물리적인 사물을 컴퓨터 상에 동일하게 가상화 시키는 기술을 의미하는 것으로, 물리적 사물이나 시스템을 모델링하거나 IoT 기술에 접목되어 활용되고 있는 기술이다. 디지털 트윈 기술은 가상의 모델을 무한정 시뮬레이션을 통해 동작을 튜닝하고 환경변화에 대한 대응을 미리 실험하여 리스크를 최소화할 수 있는 장점을 지닌다. 최근 인공지능이나 기계학습에 관련된 기술들이 주목받기 시작하면서, 이와 같은 물리적인 사물의 모델링 작업을 데이터 기반으로 수행하려는 시도가 증가하고 있다. 특히, 산업현장에서 많이 활용되는 인더스트리 4.0 공장 자동화의 핵심인 협력 로봇의 디지털 트윈을 구축하기 위해서는 로봇의 동작을 인지하는 과정이 필수적으로 요구된다. 그러나 현재 협력 로봇의 동작을 인지하기 위한 시도는 미비하며, 센서 데이터를 기반으로 동작을 역으로 예측하는 기술은 더욱 그렇다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 로봇의 동작을 인지하기 위해 가정용 협력 로봇에서 전류 및 관성 데이터를 수집하기 위한 실험 환경을 구축하고, 수집한 센서 데이터를 기반으로 한 동작 예측 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 제안하는 방식은 로봇의 동작 명령어를 조인트 위치 기반으로 분류하고 전류와 위치 센서 값을 사용하여 학습을 통해 예측하는 방식이다. SVM 을 이용하여 학습한 결과, 모델의 성능은 평균적으로 정확도, 정밀도, 및 재현율이 모두 96%로 평가되었다.

Structural glued laminated timbers were manufactured from Japanese larch(Larix leptolepis) lumber. The effect of various factors, such as finger joint, strength of lamination, on the strength properties of glulam was investigated. When only MOE of lamina was used as input variable for the estimation of strength properties of glulam, the deviations between actual and simulated results were increased with the number of lamination, because the effects of variance of lamina properties on the strength estimation of glulam were cumulated with the number of lamination. Therefore, to estimate the MOR of glulam more careful approach was needed. Besides, both MOE and MOR of lamination were used as input variable to compare the effect of input variable. In the case of finger jointed lamination was located in tension zone, MOE of glulam was some effected, because of the variation of MOE of lamination and the deficiency of information for knot. In the case of finger jointed lamination wasn't located in tension zone, more exact estimation was possible than the case of finger jointed lamination was located in tension zone. From the results, it was concluded that more exact estimation of strength properties of glulam could be obtained by considering effects of both finger joint and knot.

I proposed small ambulatory robot actuators using piezoelectric benders. In order to make the motion of the biomimetic robot legs similar to the movements of the cockroaches or similar insects, two pairs of legs in the diagonal direction in the four leg structures are required to make the same movement. And elliptical displacement is realized by taking into account horizontal and vertical displacement of multimode oscillations and driving them by electrical signals with differences step by step, for example of 90° the T-shaped robot actuator showed wide range of speed (From 2 mm/sec. up to 266 mm/sec.) and ability of transportation (up to 10 g with 50 mm/s). Locomotive performance of the robot was competitive to the preceding robots, and moreover, the modular type actuators of a segmented myriapods robot could be added and removed for different tasks or performances.

In this study, finite element analysis was performed to evaluate a method of increasing the fatigue life of the pipe connection structure commonly used in the topside structure of offshore platforms. MSC Patran/Nastran, a commercial analysis program, was used, and the critical structural model was selected from the global analysis. To realize the stress concentration phenomenon according to the load, modeling using 8-node solid elements was implemented. The main loads were considered to be two lateral loads and a tensile load on a diagonal pipe. To check the hotspot stress at the main location, a 0.01 mm dummy shell element was applied. After calculating the main stress at the 0.5-t and 1.5-t locations, the stress generated in the weld was estimated through extrapolation. In some sections, this stress was observed to be below the fatigue life that should be satisfied, and reinforcement was required. For reinforcement, a bracket was added to reduce the stress concentration factor where the fatigue life was insufficient without changing the thickness or diameter of the previously designed pipe. Regarding the tensile load, the stress in the bracket toe increased by 23 %, whereas the stress inside and outside of the pipe, which was a problem, decreased by approximately 8 %. Regarding the flexural load, the stress at the bracket toe increased by 3 %, whereas the stress inside and outside of the pipe, which was also a problem, decreased by approximately 48 %. Owing to the new bracket reinforcement, the stress in the bracket toe increased, but the S-N curve itself was better than that of the pipe joint, so it was not a significant problem. The improvement method of fatigue life is expected to be useful; it can efficiently increase the fatigue life while minimizing changes to the initial design.
