The laser ultrasonic technique is gaining popularity for nondestructive evaluation (NDE) applications because it is a noncontact and couplant-free method and can inspect a target from a remote distance. For the conventional laser ultrasonic techniques, a pulsed laser is often used to generate broadband ultrasonic waves in a target structure. However, for crack detection using nonlinear ultrasonic modulation, it is necessary to generate narrowband ultrasonic waves. In this study, a pulsed laser is shaped into dual-line arrays using a spatial mask and used to simultaneously excite narrowband ultrasonic waves in the target structure at two distinct frequencies. Nonlinear ultrasonic modulation will occur between the two input frequencies when they encounter a fatigue crack existing in the target structure. Then, a nonlinear damage index (DI) is defined as a function of the magnitude of the modulation components and computed over the target structure by taking advantage of laser scanning. Finally, the fatigue crack is detected and localized by visualizing the nonlinear DI over the target structure. Numerical simulations and experimental tests are performed to examine the possibility of generating narrowband ultrasonic waves using the spatial mask. The performance of the proposed fatigue crack localization technique is validated by conducting an experiment with aluminum plates containing real fatigue cracks.

Nanoporous silica aerogels with various surface modifiers were prepared by ambient drying process. Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) were used a raw material. Ambient drying process for various surface modifier was studied in the point of view of a crack-free monolith and thin films and low cost. Various kinds of surface modifiers like as hexamethyldisilazane (HMDSZ), trimethlychlorosilane (TMCS), methlytriethoxylsilane (MTES), and methlytrimethoxysilane (MTMS) were studied in order to enhance hydrophobicity for the silica aerogel. Surface modified aerogels were evaluated by FT-IR, TG, BET, SEM and wetting angle measurement. Homogeneous and crack-free aerogels were obtained by modifying the HMDSZ and the TMCS. However silica xerogel was obtained when modified with MTMS, MTES.

Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of alcohol YBCO suspensions on the Ag wire electrode is studied. Poly(ethylene glycol) was coordinated to a structure formed by the EPD process with YBCO particles. The suspension is characterized in terms of zeta potential and conductivity. The d.c electric fields of 200-300 V/cm are applied for 1-10 min. The optimal condition for the EPD allows modifying the properties and microstructure of the deposited films. Superconducting coatings with nanometer-sized pores and a preferred orientation along the c-axis were prepared from the result with chemically modified precursor solution. In contrast, YBCO coatings of submicrometer-sized pores and randomly orientated grains were prepared from the solution without PEG.

본 연구에서는 용매열합성법(solvothermal method)을 이용해 나노기공 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조하였다. In-situ 용매열합성법을 이용하는 경우, 매크로 기공의 알루미나 지지체 위에 균일하고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 층을 형성하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 용매열합성 전에 알루미나 지지체의 표면을 가열한 상태에서 용매열합성의 전구체 용액을 분무하므로 연속적이고 균열이 없는 HKUST-1 분리막을 제조할 수 있었다. 합성된 HKUST-1 분리막은 XRD, FE-SEM 및 단일 기체투과 실험 등을 통해 분석하였다.

본 연구에서는 요소를 사용하지 않는 새로운 해석방법인 EFG(Element-Free Galerkin)법을 사용하여 복수의 초기균열을 지닌 강재가 반복피로하중을 받는 경우 균열들이 점진적으로 성장하여 부재가 파단에 이르는 과정을 해석적으로 규명하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 일반적인 피로균열성장법칙을 EFG법을 이용한 균열해석 알고리즘에 적용하여 복수의 균열들이 각각의 응력상태에 따라 차별적으로 성장해 나가는 과정을 해석할 수 있는 알고리즘을 도입하고 이를 바탕으로 다양한 하중상태하에서 복수의 균열들의 성장경로를 추정함과 동시에 이에 따른 잔존수명을 산정할 수 있는 기법을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 해석방법을 피로균열 발생빈도가 큰 몇가지의 강부재 형태에 적용해 본 결과 다수균열 함유 부재의 피로균열 성장거동과 균열들의 피로수명을 성공적으로 예측할 수 있었다.

Crack-free hard coating siIica films were prepared by sol-gel processfrom twokinds of silicon alkoxide (tetra-ethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane) and two kinds of alcohol (methanol and isopropyl alcohol) with an acid catalyst,acetic acid. A silicate framework of the precursor solution was investigated by infrared spectros-copy (IR) in the process of hydrolysis and condensation. Theextent of the condensation in the intermediates was elucidated by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and 29Si-NMR spectroscopy. The hard coating films werecharacterized by IR,scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermo gravimetric analyzer (TGA) and dif-ferential scanning calroimeter (DSC). The synthetic condition for the crack-free and transparent silica film for-mation was optimized interms of starting materials for the precursor solution as well as preparation method of the silica film.

실리콘 기판상에 여러 조건의 전류밀도에서 로듐 도금을 실시하였다. 직류전원의 경우 전류밀도가 증가하면 로듐 표면에 균열이 발생하였다. 잔류응력을 낮추기 위하여 펄스전류를 인가하였다. 펄스전류의 off 시간이 도금층의 잔류응력을 낮추는데 영향을 주었다. 펄스전류의 인가 주기를 5:5로 하였을 경우 균열 없는 로듐 도금층을 얻었다.

Thin films of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) nanoparticles were prepared using a low-temperature deposition and crystallization process involving successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) or SILAR-Air spray Plus (SILAR-A+) methods, coupled with hydrothermal (175 ℃) and furnace (500 ℃) post-annealing. The annealed YSZ films resulted in crystalline products, and their phases of monoclinic, tetragonal, and cubic were categorized through X-ray diffraction analysis. The morphologies of the as-prepared films, fabricated by SILAR and SILAR-A+ processes, including hydrothermal dehydration and annealing, were characterized by the degree of surface cracking using scanning electron microscopy images. Additionally, the thicknesses of the YSZ thin films were compared by removing diffusion layers such as spectator anions and water accumulated during the air spray plus process. Crack-free YSZ thin films were successfully fabricated on glass substrates using the SILAR-A+ method, followed by hydrothermal and furnace annealing, making them suitable for application in solid oxide fuel cells.
