The low speed aerodynamic characteristics for a modified sonic arc airfoil which is designed by using the nose shape function of sonic arc, the shape function of NACA four-digit wing sections, and Maple are experimentally investigated. The small rotor blades of a modified sonic arc and NACA0012 airfoil are precisely fabricated with a commercially available light aluminum(Al 6061-T6) and are spin tested over a low speed range (3000rpm-5000rpm). In a consuming power comparison, the consuming powers of NACA0012 are higher than that of modified sonic arcs at each pitch angle. The measured rotor thrust for each pitch angle is used to estimate the rotor thrust coefficient according to momentum theory in the hover state. The value of thrust coefficients for both two airfoils at each pitch angle show almost constant values over the low Mach number range. However, the rotor thrust coefficient of NACA0012 is higher than that of the modified sonic arc at each pitch angle. In conclusion, the aerodynamic performance of NACA0012 is better than that of modified sonic arcs in the low speed regime. This test model will provide a convenient platform for improving the aerodynamic performance of small scale airfoils and for performing design optimization studies.

A complete quantitative understanding of DT has been difficult because the process represents such a broad field of research. The experimental measurement of tool force is a single area of DT which still covers a wide range of possibilities. There are numerous parameters of the process which affect cutting forces. There are also many turnable materials of current interest. To obtain information toward a better understanding of the process, a few cutting parameters and materials were selected for detail study. It was decided that free-oxygen copper and 6061-T6 alloy aluminum would be the primary test materials. There are materials which other workers have also used because of there wide use in reflective applications. The experimental phase of the research project began by designing tests to isolate certain cutting parameters. The parameters chosen to study were those that affected the cross-sectional area of the uncut chip. The specific parameters which cause this area to vary are the depth of cut and infeed per revolution, or feedrates. Other parameter such a tool nose radius and surface roughness were investigated as they became relevant to the research.

Mechanical fastening is still one of the main methods used for joining components. Different techniques have been applied to reduce the effect of stress concentration of notches like fastener holes. In this work we evaluate the feasibility of combining laser shock peening (LSP) and cold expansion to improve fatigue crack initiation and propagation of open hole specimens made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. LSP is a new and competitive technique for strengthening metals, and like cold expansion, induces a compressive residual stress field that improves fatigue, wear and corrosion resistance. For LSP treatment, a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser with infrared radiation was used. Residual stress distribution as a function of depth was determined by the contour method. Compact tension specimens with a hole at the notch tip were subjected to LSP process and cold expansion and then tested under cyclic loading with R=0.1 generating fatigue cracks on the hole surface. Fatigue crack initiation and growth is analyzed and associated with the residual stress distribution generated by both treatments. It is observed that both methods are complementary; cold expansion increases fatigue crack initiation life, while LSP reduces fatigue crack growth rate.

일반적으로 천체 망원경에 사용되는 반사경은 유리 소재로 제작된다. 그러나 알루미늄을 반사경 소재로 사용하면 광기계구조물과 반사경의 열팽창계수가 유사하여 치수 안정성이 높다는 장점이 있다. 뿐만 아니라 다이아몬드 선삭 기계 (Diamond Turning Machine, DTM)를 이용할 수 있기 때문에 반사경의 가공 시간 및 제작 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 알루미늄 합금 (Al6061-T6)을 소재로 구경 150 mm, 초점거리 600 mm인 포물면 반사경을 제작하였다. 우선 DTM을 이용해 알루미늄을 가공하였는데, 이 때 표면 조도와 관련된 고주파 오차 (High Frequency Error, HFE)가 발생한다. 따라서 표면 조도를 향상시키기 위한 추가적인 공정으로써 가공된 표면을 도금한 후 열처리를 하고, 폴리싱과 이중 코팅을 거쳐서 최종 반사경을 얻었다. 각 단계별 공정을 마친 후에는 접촉식 및 광학식 형상 측정 방법으로 표면 측정을 실시하여 이를 분석하였다. 본 발표에서는 각 공정 단계에서의 반사경 표면 분석 결과를 설명할 것이며, 제작된 알루미늄 반사경과 기존의 유리 소재의 반사경을 성능 면에서 비교할 것이다.

Recent industrial developments are constantly advancing, and rapid technological development is demanding high technology level in related fields. The need for polishing is increasing even more to improve quality. In order to improve the surface quality, the final finishing process or polishing process is a very important part. Research on super precise polishing method using MR fluid is actively being carried out in domestic and foreign countries. Fine magnetic abrasive grains are aligned in the direction of a magnetic force line formed by a magnetic field and serve as a brush to polish a metal surface. This method has the advantage that the shape of the tool is not fixed and is not affected by the shape of the workpiece or the machining area. We will design the electromagnets for the MR polish polishing system and apply the magnetic field analysis using the magnetic field analysis program (ANSYS). The data obtained through this process suggests an efficient method to increase the magnetic flux density important for polishing. We will investigate the influence of the Al6061-T6 specimen on the surface of the MR polishing machine based on the optimized design.

We are developing an optomechanical design of infrared telescope for the CubeSat and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) which adapts the Linear Astigmatism Free- Three Mirror System in the confocal off-axis condition. The small entrance pupil (diameter of 40 mm) and the fast telescope (f-number of 1.9) can survey large areas. The telescope structure consists of three mirror modules and a sensor module, which are assembled on the base frame. The mirror structure has duplex layers to minimize a surface deformation and physical size of a mirror mount. All the optomechanical parts and three freeform mirrors are made from the same material, i.e., aluminum 6061-T6. The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion matching single material structure makes the imaging performance to be independent of the thermal expansion. We investigated structural characteristics against external loads through Finite Element Analysis. We confirmed the mirror surface distortion by the gravity and screw tightening, and the overall contraction/expansion following the external temperature environment change (from -30℃ to +30℃).

극저온 추진제 탱크를 개발하는 과정에서 복합재와 알루미늄 라이너를 접합하기 위한 접착제의 선택은 탱크의 안전성과도 직결된 매우 중요한 문제이다. 따라서 적합한 극저온용 접착제를 선택하기 위해 3종류의 접착필름이 선정되었으며 극저온용으로 개발된 탄소섬유/에폭시와 라이너 재료로 사용되는 알루미늄으로 구성된 양면 겹치기 조인트 시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 시편을 극저온 환경챔버를 사용하여 상온과 $-150^{\circ}C$에서 인장실험을 수행하여 각 접착제의 접착강도를 비교하였으며 파손 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 양면 겹치기 조인트 시편의 각 구성재료의 온도에 따른 기계적 물성변화를 측정하였으며 이를 이용하여 ABAQUS를 통한 유한요소해석을 수행하여 양면 겹치기 조인트 시편의 인장시험결과를 분석하였다.

The Small Punch Test (SPT) was developed to evaluate the softening and embrittlement of materials such as power plants and nuclear fusion reactors by taking samples in the field. Specimens used in the SPT are very thin and small disk-shaped compared to specimens for general tensile test, and thus have economic advantages in terms of miniaturization and repeatability of the test. The cryogenic SPT can also be miniaturized and has a significantly lower heat capacity than conventional universal test machines. This leads to reduced cooling and warm-up times. In this study, the cryogenic SPT was developed by modifying the existing room temperature SPT to be cooled by liquid nitrogen using a super bellows and a thermal insulation structure. Since the cryogenic SPT was first developed, basic experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of it. For the validation, aluminum alloy 6061- T6 specimens were tested for mechanical properties at room and cryogenic temperature. The results of the corrected tensile properties from the SPT experiment results were compared with known room temperature and cryogenic properties. Based on the correction results, the effectiveness of the cryogenic SPT test was confirmed, and the surface fracture characteristics of the material were analyzed using a 3d image scanner. In the future, we plan to conduct property evaluation according to the development of various alloy materials.
