Titanium alloys have the characteristics of lightness, high strength and good corrosion resistant and are broadly used in manufacturing parts for military and aerospace industries. These alloys are also recognized for organism materials comparatively and used as fixing ones in human body. Nevertheless titanium alloys have excellent properties, it is difficult to machine by traditional methods because of high hardness and chemically activated property. So higher tool wear is expected when cutting by conventional tools, so it is required nontraditional machining process. Finally, the mechanical characteristics such as surface roughness, shape and hardness on studied for wire electrical discharge machined and pound surfaces of titanium alloys for different heat-tested conditions.

Moreover, Jewelry manufacturing is needed to be more precise working, more saved time and more improved finance. So, This Study will show the ideas which make exactly formed shape and advanced qualities when cutting Ag-alloy. This ideas will give the fact that beginners are able to use easily to change and compound the form of jewelries by using Nd-YAG laser.

By means of magnetic pulsed compaction and sintering of weakly aggregated alumina based nanopowders the jet forming nozzle samples for the hydroabrasive cutting were fabricated. The ceramics was obtained from pure alumina, as well as from alumina, doped by $TiO_2$, MgO and AlMg. It was shown that the samples sintered from AlMg doped $Al_2O_3$ powder have the best mechanical properties and structural characteristics: relative density ${\sim}0.97$, channel microhardness. - 18-20 GPa, channel surface roughness ${\sim}0.7\;{\mu}m$, average crystallite size ${\sim}1\;{\mu}m$.

AZ31 마그네슘 판재의 장식 도금을 공정 개발을 적용하기 위한 기초 연구로서 전처리 특성에 따른 마그네슘 AZ31 판재의 아연치환도금의 특성을 연구하였다. AZ31 판재는 다이캐스팅으로 사용되는 AZ91 소재에 비해 산세에 대해 민감한 반응을 나타내었다. 소재의 균일화는 시편 E와 F에서 균일하고 광택 있는 표면을 얻었고, 질산은 표면 에칭효과만을 가진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 아연치환도금을 위한 전처리에 있어서는 시편 E에서 우수한 밀착력을 나타내었다. 이후 청화동 도금과 황산동 도금, 니켈도금 3가 크롬도금을 실시하여, X-cutting 테이핑 테스트에서 양호한 밀착성과 내식성 72시간, 열탕시험을 만족하였다.

Vortex shedding from a circular cylinder is simulated by means of the discrete vortex method. The shear layer emanating from the separation point is approximated as a sheet vortex which is in turn represented by a sequence of discrete vortices. The strength of these vortices is calculated from the vorticity shedding rate and introduced at a small distance off the side ($\Theta=\pm\pi/2$) of the cylinder surface in regular time step. Sheet vortex cutting, rediscretization and replacement of vortex by vortex segment are put to use to enhance stability of the sheet vortex evolution. The simulated vortex distribution pattern very well reproduces structure like the Karman vortex street. However, as for the force coefficients, the qualitative properties are correctly predicted but some more improvements are needed for the quantitative accuracy.

With hope and concern, the first Korean proton therapy facility was introduced to the National Cancer Center (NCC) in 2007. It added a new chapter to the history of Korean radiation therapy. There have been challenging clinical trials using proton beam therapy, which has seen many impressive results in cancer treatment. Compared to the rapidly increasing number of proton therapy facilities in the world, only one more proton therapy center has been added since 2007 in Korea. The Samsung Medical Center installed a proton therapy facility in 2015. Most radiation oncology practitioners would agree that the physical properties of the proton beam provide a clear advantage in radiation treatment. But the expensive cost of proton therapy facilities is still one of the main reasons that hospitals are reluctant to introduce them in Korea. I herein introduce the history of proton therapy and the cutting edge technology used in proton therapy. In addition, I will cover the role of a medical physicist in proton therapy and the future prospects of proton therapy, based on personal experience in participating in proton therapy programs from the beginning at the NCC.

The Fine Blanking process is an effective precision shearing process that can obtain a smooth cutting surface and high product precision through a single blanking process. It is widely used in various manufacturing fields. However, shearing through this fine blanking process is only intended to minimize burrs, die rolls and fracture surfaces and does not completely remove them. Therefore, it is necessary to study the minimization of burrs, die rolls and fracture surfaces in the fine blanking process. In this study, a study was conducted on the relationship between the fracture surface and process conditions that occurred during product production using the fine blanking process. For this purpose, the shape of the V-ring indenter, the distance to the punch, and the pressure force, clearance, shear rate, and physical properties of the material were selected as process and design variables, and the relationship with the fracture surface according to each process and design condition was tested. It was analyzed through the Experimental Design Method.

In this study, 2,5-dichlorobenzophenone was synthesized as a monomer using 1,4-dichlorbenzene, and subsequently, copolymers of benzoyl-p-phenylene and p-phenylene were prepared. The average molecular weight was improved using the low-molecular-weight polymer cutting method. The average molecular weight and glass transition temperature of the synthesized polymers were estimated. The as-prepared polymer was used as a hard coating material, and the coating was conducted on a poly(methyl methacrylate) plate. Furthermore, physical properties of the coatings, such as pencil hardness, adhesive strength, and abrasion resistance, were estimated. As the amount of p-phenylene in the copolymer increased, pencil hardness and abrasion resistance improved. The amount of p-phenylene in the copolymer can be increased to 30 mol% in order to increase the hardness of the coating, and the adhesive strength was insufficient for the copolymers with p-phenylene ratio greater than 35 mol%.

Various amount of NbC carbide was intentionally formed in a matrix-type cold-work tool steel by controlled amount of Nb and C addition. And the effect of NbC addition on the mechanical properties was investigated. Four alloys with different Nb and C contents were cast by vacuum induction melting, then hot forging and spheroidizing annealing were conducted. The machinability of the annealed specimens was examined with 3 different cutting tools. And tensile tests at room temperature were conducted. After quenching and tempering, hardness and impact toughness were measured, while wear resistance was evaluated by disk-on-plate type wear test. The increasing amount of NbC addition resulted in degraded machinability with increased strength, whereas the absence of NbC also led to poor machinability due to high toughness. After quenching and tempering, the additional NbC improved wear resistance with increasing hardness, whereas it deteriorated impact toughness. Therefore, it could be found that a moderate addition of NbC was desirable for the balanced combination of mechanical properties.
