Molybdenum Nitrided (MoNx) films were deposited by DC planar magnetron sputtering. Silicon wafers and real nitrided stainless steel piston rings are employed as substrates. 12 different combinations of nitrogen and argon partial pressure, from 1:7 to 7:1, were applied to deposit MoNx films. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to determine the phase structures of films. When nitrogen vs. argon partial pressure is 1:7, the film is mainly $Mo_2N$ phase. With increase of nitrogen partial pressure, MoN phase emerges, but $Mo_2N$ phase still exists. Composition analysis with atomic emission spectrometry (AES) also agreed with this. The films have very high nanohardness (max 2400Hv) and good adhesion to the substrates.

This study concerns the tribological behaviors of ultra-thin DLC coating with 3 nm thickness deposited in a mixed gas of argon + 20 % hydrogen as a function of humidity. Reciprocating wear tests employing a micro wear tester were performed under various normal loads and relative humidity in air environment. The chemical composition of the original and worn surfaces were studied by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). It showed that the ultra-thin DLC coating exhibited low friction with enough wear stability at low normal load (0.18 N) and its tribological behavior was strongly dependent on the humidity. The sample surfaces before and after the test were examined using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Capillary force and meniscus areas were discussed in order to explain the influence of humidity on the friction force.

The influence of the slip flow on the MEMS/MST based gas-lubricated proceeding bearing is investigated. Based on the modified Reynolds equation, the numerical analysis of the finite difference method was developed by applying the first order slip flow approximation. The numerical prediction of bearing performance provides the significant results concerning the slip flow effect in micro scale gas-lubricated proceeding bearing. The result indicates that the load-carrying capacity as well as the rotordynamic coefficients were significantly reduced due to the slip flow. Through this work, it is concluded that the slip flow effect could not be ignored in the micro gas-lubricated proceeding bearing.

바이오트라이보로지(biotribology)란 생물학(biology)와 마찰학(tribology)의 합성어로서 그리이스어의 $\tau\rhoc\betao\sigma$(마찰하다)가 어원이며, 마찰 마모 윤활의 학술 용어 "tribology"가 영어로 된것은 1966년이다. 이때 마찰학이란 이학 또는 공학현상으로서 문제를 해석하는데 한정하였고 생물에 대한 문제까지 광범위하게 고려하지 못하였다. 1972년 영국 석유학회, 기계학회 그리고 Rheology 학회의 공동개최로 "윤활제의 레올로지" 회의가 열렸다. 거기서 Dowson 교수(기계공학)와 Right 교수(루마치스 의학)의 공동논문 "Bio-Tribology"를 발표해서 처음으로 그 용어를 제안하였다. Dowson 교수가 열거했던 바이오트라이보로지의 대상은 다음과 같다. (1) 기계에 사용되는 윤활제에 대한 미생물의 영향 (2) 인간의치의 마모 (3) 면도칼에 대한 저마찰 보호막의 작용 (4) 인체내의 유체수송(뇨관내의 유동기구, 타액의 운동, 혈액흐름) (5) 모세혈관내에서 적혈구의 운동과 혈장에서 그의 윤활작용 (6) 화상치료시 "정압기체 축수"적 부양 (7) 음식물을 씹을 때 타액의 윤활작용 (8) 관절기능의 윤활학적 연구 (9) 인공골두와 인공관절의 윤활학적 연구8) 관절기능의 윤활학적 연구 (9) 인공골두와 인공관절의 윤활학적 연구

Screw in injection molding machine is affected by heat flux, pressure on inside barrel, geometry of screw including flight number, pitch and flight angle. Volumetric efficiency increases as the flight number increases, but it didn't show steady tendency according to helix angle of flight. Heat flux from heating pad and injection pressure play a very important role on the thermal behavior characteristics. The increased number of multi-flight is merits and demerits for a screw efficiency. So, we have to optimize flight number of the screw considering temperature, displacement, distortion and stress of the screw.

In this work, a simple and low cost sensor technique is proposed to test oil color in real time using in-line sensor. It is presented to use a ratio of intensity in red wavelength range to intensities of green and blue wavelength ranges (defined as a 'chromatic ratio') in order to estimate the oil color change. The proposed sensor technique is realized by irradiating a white LED as light source and a RGB color sensor as photoreceiver, and the chromatic ratio of various types of used oils are measured. The results show that chromatic ratio generally reflects chemical deterioration of oil, including oil oxidation and thermal degradation. It is concluded that the proposed sensor could be used for an effective oil monitoring technology.

Tribology는 미끄럼 혹은 구름베어링, 피스톤링, 기어, 공구, 그밖의 상대적 움직임하에 있는 부품의 설계 및 제조와 관련된 학문이다. 또한 tribology는 서로 접촉하는 재료의 적절한 사용, 윤활유와의 상호작용 이해 및 적절한 선택을 통해 마모와 마찰의 감소 혹은 최적의 마찰(브레이크, 벨트 등의 경우)을 위해 연구되는 분야이다. 부품의 내마모성을 향상시키고 적절한 마찰계수를 얻기 위해서는 기계 설계, 윤활유 선택 및 개발, 재료의 선택 및 개발 등 여러 분야의 기여가 모두 필요하다. 지금까지는 전통적으로 사용되어 오던 재료, 특히 금속재료를 중심으로 하여 기계 및 윤활제 개발 등에 치중하여 왔다. 그러나 산업이 발전되고 복잡화됨에 따라 극한 분위기 즉 고온, 고진공하에서의 장시간 사용과 고효율 등을 요구하여 최근의 tribology 분야에 사용되는 부품들의 신소재로의 대체를 요구하고 있다. 한 예로 지금의 엔진보다 더 고온에서 작동되는 고효율의 경량의 첨단 열엔진의 개발을 들 수 있다. 이러한 열 엔진의 사용목적을 달성하기 위해서는 기존의 금속재료로는 고온에서 작동괴기에는 너무 약하고 무겁기 때문에 구조용 세라믹스가 고려되고 있는 것이다. 신소재 분야중 세라믹스는 고기능성 부품과 이미 산업화된 분야의 부품의 대체 재료로 주목을 받고 있다.

Experiments were conducted to determine the structural dynamic characteristics of bump foil bearing. The housing of the bearing on the journal was driven by two shakers which were used to simulate dynamic forces acting on the bump foil strips. Three different bump foils(Cu-coated bump, silicon bump, viscoelastic bump) are tested and the dynamic coefficients of three bump foils compared, based on the experimental measurements for a wide range of operating conditions. From the test results, the high damping coefficients of viscoelastic bump are achieved and the possibility of the super-bending-critical operation is suggested.

Effect of surface topography on the water wetting nature and micro/nano tribological characteristics of Si-wafer and PTFE was experimentally studied. The ion beam treatment was performed with a hollow cathode ion gun in different argon don dose conditions in a vacuum chamber to change the surface topography, Micro/nano tribological characteristics, water wetting angles and roughness were measured with a micro tribo tester, SPM (scanning prove microscope), contact anglemeter and profilometer, respectively. Results showed that surface roughness increased with the argon ion dose. The water wetting angle of tile ion beam treated samples also increased with the ion dose. Results also showed that micro-adhesion and micro-friction depend on the wetting characteristics of the PTFE samples. However, nano-triboloSical characteristics showed little dependence on the wetting angles. The water wetting characteristics of modified PTFE samples were discussed in terms of the surface topographic characteristics.
