It is well known that solidification cracking often occurs in welds of root pass for one-side welding under the conditions of high welding currents and speeds. In this study, the solidification in 590MPa class steel for pressure vessels SPPV490 was investigated by using flux-cored arc welding(FCAW) with 4 types of welding wires and welding conditions of 200∼280A and 2.8∼ 4.2mm/sec. In order to compared the result of cracking in SPPV490, 0.2%C steel for welded structure of SWS400 and 0.45%C steel for machine structural SM45C were also used as base metals. As the results, all the cracks formed in some welding conditions were observed near the center of weld bead. The solidification cracks were generally initiated near the upper surface of bead and propagated toward the inner part. The solidification cracking generally increased with welding current and welding speed in the same base metal and welding material. In cracking susceptibility, SPPV490 showed higher cracking susceptibility than SWS400 in all welding conditions and welding materials. It was considered that cracking susceptibility could not be evaluated with the hardness of weld metals. The cracking ratio increased with decreasing of a/b(a and b; the width of the upper surface and the back surface of the bead) as shape factor of bead. The cracking tendency with shape factor of bead was extended under the condition of higher welding currents.

A quality monitoring system in butt welding process is proposed to estimate weld pool sizes. The geometrical parameters of the weld pool such as the top bead width and the penetration depth plus half back width are utilized to prove the integrity of the weld quality. The monitoring variables used are the surface temperatures measured at three points on the top surface of the weldment. The temperature profile is assumed that it has a gaussian distribution in vertical direction of torch movement and verify this assumption through temperature analysis. A neural network estimator is designed to estimate weld pool size from temperature informations. The experimental results show that the proposed neural network estimator which used gaussian distribution as temperature information can estimate the weld pool sizes accurately than used three point temperatures as temperature information. Considering the change of gap size in butt welding, the experiment were performed on various gap size.

TIG 용접은 고품질이고 용접인자의 제어가 쉽고 정확하다는 장점이 있지만, 얕은 용입과 낮은 생산성과 같은 단점이 있다. TIG 오비탈 용접에서는 용입의 한계 때문에 작은 루트면과 넓은 그루브를 가공하여 다층 용접을 하며, 루트패스에서는 파이프 진원도에 의한 핏업 시 단차의 문제가 자주 발생하여 많은 현장에서 루트갭을 만들어 수동 용접하는 실정이다. 따라서 생산성이 낮으며 생산 단가가 높고 용접 품질이 작업자에 따라 다르게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하여 자동 오비탈 용접을 위해 단차를 흡수 할 수 있는 용접 공정 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 TIG 용접에서 단차에 따른 용접성을 검토하여 이를 맞대기 용접에 적용했을 때 균일한 이면비드를 얻는 공정을 개발하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구는 아래보기 자세에서 단차에 따른 용입 특성을 이면비드 및 단면으로 비교 분석하였다. 단차 없이 아크길이만 1mm, 2mm, 3mm로 변경하여 실험한 결과 아크길이가 짧아질수록 표면비드 폭은 좁아졌고 이면비드 폭은 증가하는 경향을 나타내어 아크길이가 짧아질수록 용융효율이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 단차 1mm에서 아크길이 3mm를 제외하고 표면비드 및 이면비드가 미려하였다. 하지만 단차 2mm에서는 아크길이 1mm, 2mm, 3mm 전부 이면비드가 생성되지 않았다. 이는 단차로 인해 아크길이가 증가하여 용융효율이 낮아졌기 때문이라 판단된다. 이면비드가 생성되지 못한 시험편을 백 베벨링(0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm)하여 실험한 결과 단차 2mm, 아크길이 1-3mm 백 베벨링 2.0mm 적용한 시험편에서 양호한 이면비드를 얻을 수 있었다.

Local deformations in back filling materials of two sands and one glass bead with different particle shapes behind a rigid retaining wall were studied. Two kinds of boundary conditions were compared: active wall translation and active rotation of the wall about its toe. Effect of the speed of active wall translation was also investigated. The digital image correlation method was used to analyze local deformation developments inside the materials. Test results showed that particle shape and density mainly influence the inclination angle and width of the shear band. The general shear band pattern is strongly dependent on the wall movement mode, while it was little influenced by particle shape. Within a limited range of wall speed in this study, shear band became wider and local deformation became larger with increase of wall speed.

The purpose of this study was to point out the unification of the size of swimming headgear by measuring detailed measurement of head ferm and systematizes the head form. A total of 300 male and female Korean adults aged from 18 years old to 35 years old were measured through the direct measurement method. This study attempted to identify the head form of male and female adults using measurement data and the head form was classified through factor analysis and cluster analysis. (1) Based on the fact that this study especially focuses on the size of swimming headgear, factor analysis was performed far both direct measurements with hair and without hair. For the measurements with hair, seven factors were extracted. They were head thickness factor, head width factor, width of side head factor, height of back head factor, length of front head factor, circumference of front head factor, thickness of front head factor and head height factor. They explained the $70.95\%$ of the measurements. (2) The cluster analysis was executed to classify the somatotype of the korean head form on the basis of similarity. According to the cluster analysis result, the measurements with hair categorized types, 'Woman's long-hair type', 'Small type', 'Long and flat type', 'Large type'. (3) Head circumference B and Left tragion - Vertex - Right tragion circumference which are generally length and width in choosing swimming headgear size were selected as measurement items far size of swimming headgear. Direct measurements and sizes of four swimming headgear with different materials taking into account their elongation rate were also compared.

This paper presents an on-line quality monitoring and control method to obtain a uniform weld quality in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) processes. The geometrical parameters of the weld pool such as the top bead width and the penetration depth plus half back width are utilized to assess the integrity of the weld quality. Since a good quality weld is characterized by a relatively high depth-to-width ratio in its dimensions, the second geometrical parameter is regulated to a desired one. The monitoring variables are the surface temperatures measured at various points on the top surface of the weldment which are strongly related to the formation of the weld pool The relationship between the measured temperatures and the weld pool size is implemented on the multilayer perceptrons which are powerful for realization of complex mapping characteristics through training by samples. For on-line quality monitoring and control, it is prerequisite to estimate the weld pool sizes in the region of transient states. For this purpose, the time history of the surface temperatures is used as the input to the neural estimator. The control purpose is to obtain a uniform weld quality. In this research, the weld pool size is directly regulated to a desired one. The proposed controller is composed of a neural pool size estimator, a neural feedforward controller and a conventional feedback controller. The pool size estimator predicts the weld pool size under growing. The feedforward controller compensates for the nonlinear characteristics of the welding process. A series of simulation studies shows that the proposed control method improves the overall system response in the presence of changes in torch travel speed during GMA welding and guarantees the uniform weld quality.
