The vacuum-annealed Ni80Fe20/Ag discontinuous multilayers were found to show giant magnetoresistive behaviors comparable to those of corresponding multilayers annealed at atmospheric pressure in a mixture of H2 and Ar. This vacuum-annealing process will offer potential advantages, enabling a continuous batch process from the deposition to the annealing. Their giant magnetoresistive behaviors were attributed to the magnetostatic coupling that are induced at the edges of the discontinuous magnetic grains. We also present our results about the multilayer patterned into a basic device for the magnetic field sensor.

Effects of chemical compositions and manufacturing conditions on mechanical properties and microstructures were investigated in order to obtain galvannealed high strength dual phase steel sheets with superior mechanical properties and coating properties. An intercritical annealing between Ac1 and Ac3 was conducted to produce the DP (dual phase) steel sheets, followed by quenching to room temperature. The purposes of Al addition are to reduce the iron oxidation with chemical composition (Si, Mn etc.) and to improve the wettability by liquid zinc. The present study will focus on the characterization for making dual phase steel sheets and enhancing the galvanizability of Al added DP steel sheets about continuous annealing line in CGL.

Weight reduction for automobile components has been sought to achieve fuel efficiency and energy conservation. There are two approaches in reducing their weights. One is by using material lighter than steel, and the other is by redesigning their structures. The latter has been performed by adopting hydroforming, tailor weled blank, optimization, etc. In this research, the kriging approximation method and simulated annealing algorithm are applied to the design of a front door made by TWB (Tailor Welded Blank) technology. The design variables are set up as the thicknesses of parts and the positions of parting lines. A thickness set considered as a design variable of each part is not arbitrarily determined but selected from standard products, so it is a discrete set. This research presents the discrete and continuous structural optimization method for an automotive door design.

본 논문에서는 정량화(Quantification) 문제를 MFT(Mean Field Theroy)를 통해서 해결하는 기법을 제안한다. 통계학에서 중요한 문제의 하나인 정량화 문제는 주어진 공간에서 대상들간의 유사성에 따라서 최적의 상태를 갖도록 하는 문제이다. 평균장 접근 방법에 기초한 한개의 변수로 표현되는 확률적 시뮬레이티드 아닐링을 제안하고 정량화 문제를 패널티(penalty) 파라메타 항을 첨가한 비한정된 최적화 문제로 변형하 여 MFT를 적용하였다. 또한 연속변수를 갖는 신경회로망에서 실제 값을 계산하는 것 보다 평균장 접근방법으로 계산하는것이 더 빠르게 계산될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법이 실험결과 해석적인 방법보다 좋은 정량적 결과를 보였다.

복잡한 문제들의 근사해를 구하기 위하여 최근 다양한 방법들이 소개되고 있다. 이러한 방법들은 주로 금속의 서랭(Annealing)에 의해 금속분자의 에너지가 최저점에 도달하는 과정을 모의실험한 최적화 기법(Simulated Annealing), 생물의 적자생존(Survival of Fittest)과정을 이용한 최적화 기법인 유전적 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)등 물리적 현상이나 생물 ?생명에 관련된 모의를 최적화 문제에 응용한 방법들이다. 최근에 소개된 Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)는 주로 조류나 어류등의 생물의 무리가 각각의 개체가 가지고 있는 정보를 공유해가며 먹이를 찾아가는 과정을 모의한 기법이다. 하지만, 이 기법의 탐색과정이 명확하게 밝혀져 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 PSO의 탐색과정을 가시화 하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 탐색과정을 가시화 하는 작업을 통해 그 탐색 능력을 시각적으로 파악하는 것이 가능하며 기법에 관한 이해를 돕고 교육적 효과도 기대 가능하다.

The purpose of this research is to develop a scheduling system for CAL (Continuous Annealing Line) in Cold Rolling Mill. Based on CSP (Constraint Satisfaction Problem) technique in artificial intelligence, appropriate algorithms to provide schedules satisfying all the constraints imposed on CAL are designed and developed. Performance tests show that the proposed scheduling system outperforms human operators in case of aggregating the same attributes and minimizing the thickness differences between two adjacent coils.

This paper proposes a model for simulation and performance evaluation of distributed computer systems(DCS). The model is composed of operating system(OS), resource, task, environment submodel. Task Flow Graph(TFG) is suggested to describe the relation between tasks. This paper considers task response time, the scheduler's ready queue length, utilization of each resource as performance indices. The distributed system of Continuous Annealing Line(CAL) in iron process is simulated with the proposed model.

Radiant tube heaters are widely used for indirect heating in heat treatment processes such as continuous annealing line(CAL) or continuous galvanizing line(CGL). Main issues for radiant tube are temperature uniformity, lifetime, thermal efficiency. To achieve higher heat release, the radiant tubes are fired at a higher fuel rate and therefore local overheating occur. A numerical simulation based on a commercial code FLUENT has been performed to investigate local overheating of radiant tube heaters. To minimize local overheating, the effects of radiating fins, flue gas recirculation(FGR), two-stage combustion were investigated. More uniform temperature distribution was achieved in the longitudinal direction within the tube with radiating fins and this contributed to increase the life of radiant tubes. Furthermore, the radiant tube with radiating fins was proven to be more efficient than the one without fins. The effects of flue gas recirculation and two stage combustion on the efficiency of the radiant tube were also considered and the results were presented.

PURPOSE. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of annealing on the nanostructure and hardness of Co-Cr metal ceramic samples that were fabricated with a direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Five groups of Co-Cr dental alloy samples were manufactured in a rectangular form measuring $4{\times}2{\times}2$ mm. Samples fabricated by a conventional casting technique (Group I) and prefabricated milling blanks (Group II) were examined as conventional technique groups. The DMLS samples were randomly divided into three groups as not annealed (Group III), annealed in argon atmosphere (Group IV), or annealed in oxygen atmosphere (Group V). The nanostructure was examined with the small-angle X-ray scattering method. The Rockwell hardness test was used to measure the hardness changes in each group, and the means and standard deviations were statistically analyzed by one-way ANOVA for comparison of continuous variables and Tukey's HSD test was used for post hoc analysis. P values of <.05 were accepted as statistically significant. RESULTS. The general nanostructures of the samples were composed of small spherical entities stacked atop one another in dendritic form. All groups also displayed different hardness values depending on the manufacturing technique. The annealing procedure and environment directly affected both the nanostructure and hardness of the Co-Cr alloy. Group III exhibited a non-homogeneous structure and increased hardness ($48.16{\pm}3.02$ HRC) because the annealing process was incomplete and the inner stress was not relieved. Annealing in argon atmosphere of Group IV not only relieved the inner stresses but also decreased the hardness ($27.40{\pm}3.98$ HRC). The results of fitting function presented that Group IV was the most homogeneous product as the minimum bilayer thickness was measured (7.11 ${\AA}$). CONCLUSION. After the manufacturing with DMLS technique, annealing in argon atmosphere is an essential process for Co-Cr metal ceramic substructures. The dentists should be familiar with the materials that are used in clinic for prosthodontics treatments.

실온에서 직접 접합된 실리콘 기판의 접합강도를 향상기키기 위하여 기존의 고온 로내 열처리법을 대체할 수 있는 선형 열처리법을 개발하였다. 한 개의 열원과 타원형 반사경으로 구성된 선형 열처리법은 접합면의 간격이 열처리 온도의 증가와 더불어 감소하는 특성과 온도 증가와 더불어 접합면에 생성된는 기체상의 밀도가 증가하는 현상을 응용하여 접합면의 기체상을 밀도차이를 이용하여 기판 외부로 방출시키는 방법으로 Si$\mid$$\mid$Si 기판쌍 및 Si$\mid$$\mid$$SiO_2/Si$ 기판쌍의 직접 접합에 적용하여 보았다. IR camera와 HRTEM으로 직접 관찰한 접합면은 실온에서 접합면에 침투한 외부 불순물에 의한 비접합 영역을 제외하고는 자제 생성된 기체상에 의한 비접합 영역은 나타나지 않았고 매우 깨끗한 접합계면을 나타내었다. 접합된 기판쌍을 Crack opening법과 인장시험법을 적용하여 접합 강도를 측정하였다. 접합 강도는 열처리 온도의 증가와 더불어 점차로 증가하였고 두 측정방법 모두 동일한 경향성을 나타내었다.
