Despite rapid changes in the structure of industry, manufacturing remains a key industry for economic progress, promotion of trade, increased employment, and the creation of new industries. Production technologies are essential for strengthening the competitiveness of small- and medium-sized manufacturing industries. However, it is very difficult to standardize and systematically propagate production technology from an experienced worker to an inexperienced worker because these technologies are generally improved by the skilled people in a workshop. In this study, we introduce a Web-based platform system consisting of a knowledge authoring tool, technology database, semantic database, and Web portal service for sharing production technologies for the exterior housing parts of mobile products. By investigating various cellular phone designs, reference form factors for three types of mobile phone housings were designed based on the standard features. In addition, several manufacturing technologies and considerable information such as reference mold designs and molding conditions optimized using CAE and recent R&D outputs are stored in this system.

The development of new technology and process in industrial Plant which builds integrated structures, facilities and systems. Has become a key element for strengthening its competitiveness. Although domestic industrial Plant has demonstrated excellence in technology with a persistent increase in order quantity and orders received, the technology gap between countries has narrowed due to global construction trend. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new technology that could help overcome constraints and limitations of the current one to follow the trend in the age of unlimited competition. This study has focused on assembly technology of Pipe-rack joint connection in an effort to strengthen technological competitiveness in industrial Plant. Through an analysis of earlier studies on Pipe-rack and a coMParative analysis of strengths and weaknesses of current assembly technology of it, a new design plan has been made to improve it efficiently. In doing this, standards for design factors of both structural and performance features have been drawn, and value of stress, strain, moment and rotation has been calculated using finite element analysis. As a result, installation technology of modular type Pipe-rack, which has not been developed in Korea and is differentiated from the current one, has been developed. It is considered that the technology reduces work time and saves cost due to simplified joint connection of steel structure, unlike the current one. Moreover, since it is installed without a welding process in the field, industrial accidents would be reduced, which is likely to have economic competitiveness and satisfy.

전자제품의 다양한 기능들의 융복합화 및 휴대 편의성 경향은 이제 더 이상 새로운 것이 아니다. 이러한 추세에 따라 전자부품들은 모듈화 되고, 휴대하기 용이해 지고 있다. 또한 다양한 제품 디자인에 적용하기 위해 제품에 장착되는 부품의 기구적 위치 배열의 한계 또한 제약 받고 있다. 따라서 최근의 전자부품은 모듈화 되고 있으며, 기구적 한계를 극복하기 위한 Flexible 모듈의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 또한 양산측면에서 Roll-to-Roll(R2R) 방식을 적용함으로써 생산성을 극대화 하고 있다. 이때 R2R 적용을 위해서는 제품이 굴곡 될 수 있도록 유연성이 보장되는 Bendable 전자모듈의 개발이 필수적으로 요구되고 있다. Flexible 기판은 더 이상 새로운 기술이 아니지만, Felxible 기판 내부에 칩이 내장되고, 회로가 형성되어 자체적으로 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 한 Bendable 전자모듈을 R2R 방식으로 제조하는 기술은 매우 새로운 접근이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 기술개발이 현실화 된다면, Wearable Electronics 및 Flexible Display 등 다양한 전자제품에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 그러나 이러한 제품의 상용화를 위해서는 Bendable 전자모듈에 대한 신뢰성이 확보되고, 제품으로써의 수명이 보증되어야 한다. 신규 개발되는 제품의 신뢰성 검증항목이나 수명평가 모델은 현재까지 제안되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 또한 다양한 사용 환경에서 고장(Failure) 발생을 유발하는 스트레스 인자(Stress Factor)를 도출함으로써, 가속시험 또는 신뢰성 검증을 위한 인가 스트레스를 선정할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 고장물리를 기반으로 스트레스 인자를 해석한 결과는 아직 보고되고 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $50{\mu}m$ 두께의 Si Chip에 저항변화를 관찰하기 위한 회로를 형성한 후 폴리이미드 기판을 이용하여 Si Chip이 임베딩된 Bendable 전자모듈을 제작하였다. 전자모듈의 실사용 환경에서의 수명예측을 위한 사전단계로써 고장물리에 기반한 고장모드와 고장메카니즘을 해석하는 것이 최우선 수행되어야 하며, 이를 바탕으로 고장을 유발하는 스트레스 인자를 도출 하였다. 고장도출을 위해 시제품은 JEDEC J-STD-020C의 MSL시험, 고온가압시험, 열충격시험 및 고온저장시험을 각각 수행하였으며, 이로부터 발생된 각각의 고장유형을 분석함으로써 스트레스 인자를 도출하였다. 또한 모아레(Moire) 간섭계를 이용하여 제작된 샘플의 온도변화에 따른 변형해석을 수행하였고, 동시에 Half Symetry Model을 이용한 유한요소해석(FEA)을 수행하여 변형해석 및 스트레스 유발원인을 도출하였다. 이 결과로 부터 고장물리 기반의 고장해석과 Moire 분석 그리고 시뮬레이션 해석 결과를 바탕으로 Bendable 전자모듈의 고장유발 스트레스 인자를 해석할 수 있었다.

In the present study, hybrid moment connections of welding and bar reinforcement for composite beam-column connections were proposed. Concrete-filled octagonal tube and U-section were used for the column and beam, respectively. In the beam-column connection, the top flange and web of the beam U-section were connected to the column plate by welding. However, to reduce stress concentration at the weld joints, the bottom flange of the beam was not welded to the column plate. Instead, to transfer the tension force of the beam flange, reinforcing bars passing through the column plate were used. Four exterior connections with conventional welded and hybrid moment connections were tested under cyclic loading and their cyclic behaviors were investigated. The test results showed that the hybrid moment connections successfully transferred the beam moment to the column. The strength and ductility of the hybrid moment connections were comparable to the conventional welded moment connection with exterior diaphragm; however, the connection performance was significantly affected by the details of the hybrid moment connection.

Necessity of demonstration test to evaluate the structural integrity of a basket for accident conditions arose during license approval procedure for the WSPP's dry storage facility named MACSTOR/KN-400. A drop test facility for demonstration was constructed in KAERI site and demonstration tests for basket drop were conducted. As the upper welding region of a loaded basket was collided with a dropped basket during the drop test, the welding in this region was fractured and leakage happened after the drop test. The enhancement of basket design was needed since the existing basket design was not able to satisfy the performance requirement. The directions for design modification were determined and six enhanced designs were derived based on these directions. Structural analyses and specimen tests for each enhanced design were conducted. By evaluating structural analysis results and test results, one among six enhanced designs was decided as a final design for revision. The final design was the one to reduce the height of central post of a basket and to decrease the impact velocity with a dropped basket. Test basket models were fabricated with accordance with the final enhanced design. Additional demonstration test was performed for this test model and all the performance requirements were satisfied.

This paper aims to reduce weight by replacing the reinforcements of the B-pillar used in vehicles with CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) and GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics) from the existing steel materials. For this, it is necessary to secure structural stability that can replace the existing B-pillar while reducing the weight. Existing B-pillar are composed of steel reinforcements of various shapes, including a steel outer. Among these steel reinforcements, two steel reinforcements are to be replaced with composite materials. Each steel reinforcement is manufactured separately and bonded to the B-pillar outer by welding. However, the composite reinforcements presented in this paper are manufactured at once through compression and injection processes using patch-type CFRP and rib-structured GFRP. CFRP is attached to the high-strength part of the B-pillar to resist side loads, and the GFRP ribs are designed to resist torsion and side loads through a topology optimization technique. Through structural analysis, the designed composite B-pillar was compared with the existing B-pillar, and the weight reduction ratio was calculated.

The vision sensor which is based on the optical triangulation theory with the laser as an auxiliary light source can detect not only the seam position but the shape of seam. In this study, a vision sensor using the scanning laser beam was investigated. To design the vision sensor which considers the reflectivity of the sensing object and satisfies the desired resolution and measuring range, the equation of the focused laser beam which has a Gaussian irradiance profile was firstly formulated, Secondly, the image formaing sequence, and thirdly the relation between the displacement in the measuring surface and the displacement in the camera plane was formulated. Therefore, the focused beam diameter in the measuring range could be determined and the influence of the relative location between the laser and camera plane could be estimated. The measuring range and the resolution of the vision sensor which was based on the Scheimpflug's condition could also be calculated. From the results mentioned above a vision sensor was developed, and an adequate calibration technique was proposed. The image processing algorithm which and recognize the center of joint and its shape informaitons was investigated. Using the developed vision sensor and image processing algorithm, the shape informations was investigated. Using the developed vision sensor and image processing algorithm, the shape informations of the vee-, butt- and lap joint were extracted.

In this paper, the effects of parameters related to the residual stress induced due to laser shock peening process to determine mitigation of the initial tensile residual stresses are discussed, such as the maximum pressure, pressure pulse duration, laser spot size and number of laser shots. In order to estimate the influence of the initial tensile residual stresses, which is generated by welding in 35CD4 50HRC steel alloy, the initial condition option was employed in the finite element code. It is found that $2{\times}HEL$ maximum pressure and a certain range of the pressure pulse duration time can produce maximum mitigation effects near the surface and depth, regardless of the magnitudes of tensile residual stess. But plastically affected depth increase with increasing maximum pressure and pressure pulse duration time. For the laser spot size, maximum compressive residual stresses have almost constant values. But LSP is more effective with increasing the magnitudes of tensile residual stress. For the multiple LSP, magnitudes of compressive residual stresses and plastically affected depths are found to increase with increasing number of laser shots, but the effect is less pronounced for more laser shots. And to conclude, even though the initial tensile residual stresses such as weld residual stress field are existed, LSP is enough to make the surface and depth reinforcement effects.

In this study, effects of carbon and nickel on microstructure and low temperature Charpy impact properties of HSLA (high strength low alloy) steels are investigated. To understand the complex phase transformation behavior of HSLA steels with high strength and toughness before and after welding processes, three kinds of HSLA steels are fabricated by varying the carbon and nickel content. Microstructure analysis, low temperature Charpy impact test, and Vickers hardness test are performed for the base metals and CGHAZ (coarse-grain heat affected zone) specimens. The specimens with the lowest carbon and nickel content have the highest volume fraction of AF, the lowest volume fraction of GB, and the smallest GB packet size. So, the low temperature Charpy absorbed energy of the CGHAZ specimen is the highest. The specimens with increased carbon and nickel content have the lowest volume fraction of AF, the highest volume fraction of GB, and the largest GB packet size. So, the low temperature Charpy absorbed energy of the CGHAZ specimen is the lowest.
