Rapid Prototyping(RP) systems, that fabricate objects with slicers, typically bear staircase artifacts when slices has a certain degree of thickness. A tangential cutting algorithm is developed in order to remove surface distortion as well as to generate smooth laser-cutting trajectory. For this, an energy function is defined with tangential line length and distance between tangential line and middle contour. Then, the energy is minimized to generate effective tangential line segments. The proposed algorithm is tested and verified on 3D object samples and the results show that the generated tangential lines effectively approximate layer surface and make laser trajectory smooth.

Some mixed mode fracture criterion may be converted in to elliptical or ellipsoidal formula with the aid of mathematical translation. Hence, the crack initiation in mixed mode fracture I+II emanating from notches, has been studied using notched circular ring specimens. On the basis of Irwin (1957) theory, a new criteria in mixed mode fracture I+II, based fracture elliptic criterion and notch stress intensity factors has been developed.

Finite element analysis for the stress intensity factor (SIF) at the skin/stiffener structure with inclined central crack repaired by composite stiffened panels is developed. A numerical investigation was conducted to characterize the fracture behavior and crack growth behavior at the inclined crack. In order to investigate the crack growth direction, maximum tangential stress (MTS) criterion are used. Also, this paper is to study the performance of the effective bonded composite patch repair of a plate containing an inclined central through-crack. The main objective of this research is the validation of the inclined crack patching design. In this paper, the reduction of stress intensity factors at the crack-tip and prediction of crack growth direction are determined to evaluate the effects of various non-dimensional design parameter including; composite patch thickness and stiffener distance. We report the results of finite element analysis on the stiffener locations and crack slant angles and discuss them in this paper. The research on cracked structure subjected to mixed mode loading is accomplished and concludes that more work using a different approaches is necessary. The authors hope the present study will aid those who are responsible for the repair of damaged aircraft structures and also provide general repair guidelines.

유방암 환자의 유방보존절제술 후 방사선치료를 시행하는 경우에서 비껴방향치료방법과 세기조절방사선치료를 시행한 두 경우에 피부에 조사되는 표피 흡수선량을 비교, 분석하여 유방암 환자에서 세기조절방사선치료시 피부선량의 특성을 살펴보았다. 비껴방향치료방법과 세기조절방사선치료에 대한 두 가지 방법으로 치료계획을 시행하여 유방 피부에 조사되는 계산선량과 TLD로 측정한 측정선량을 비교하였다. 선량측정은 유두가 있는 지점을 지나도록 몸의 중심에서 가장자리 방향으로 1 cm 간격으로 피부 흡수선량을 측정하였다. 비껴방향방사선치료에서 PTV에 180 cGy 방사선량을 계획할 때, 유방 표피에서 계산선량은 103.6 cGy에서 155.2 cGy 사이를 나타내었고, 측정선량은 107.5 cGy에서 156.2 cGy 사이를 나타내었으며, 중심부위의 피부선량이 가장자리 피부선량보다 최대 1.45배 많이 조사되었다. 세기조절방사선치료에서는 PTV에 180 cGy 방사선량을 계획할 때, 유방 표피에서 계산선량은 9.8 cGy에서 80.2 cGy사이를 나타내었고, 측정선량은 8.9 cGy에서 77.2 cGy사이를 나타내었으며, 중심부위의 피부선량이 가장자리 피부선량보다 최대 0.23배 적게 조사되었다. 비껴방향방사선치료에서 보다 세기조절방사선치료에서 피부에 조사되는 방사선량이 평균적으로 3.5배 적어서 방사선 치료에 의한 피부 위해를 줄일 수 있다.

Effects of fiber-matrix interphases on the micro-and macro-mechanical behaviors of unidirectionally fiber-reinforced composites subjected to transverse shear loading at remote distance have been studied. The interphases between fibers and matrix have been modeled by the spring-layer which accounts for continuity of tractions, but allows radial and circumferential displacement jumps across the interphase that are linearly related to the normal and tangential tractions. Numerical calculations for basic cells of the composites have been carried out using the boundary element method. For an undamaged composite the micro-level stresses at the matrix side of the interphase and effective shear stiffness have been computed as functions of fiber volume ratio $V_f$ and interphase stiffness k. Results are presented for various interphase stiffnesses from the perfect bonding to the case of total debonding. For a square array composite the results show that for a high interphase stiffness k>10, an increase of $V_f$ increases the effective transverse shear modulus G over bar of the composite. For a relatively low interphase stiffness k<1, it is shwon that an increase of $V_f$ slightly decreases the effective transverse shear modulus. For the perfect bonding case, G over bar for a hexagonal array composite is slightly larger than that for a square array composite. Also for a damaged composite partially debonded at the interphase, local stress fields and effective shear modulus are calculated and a decrease in G over bar has been observed.

This paper studies the effects of intake port configuration on the swirl that is key parameter in the flow field of direct injection diesel engines. In-cylinder flow characteristics is known to have significant effects on fuel air mixing, combustion and emissions. To investigate the swirl flow generated by various intake ports, steady state flow tests were conducted to evaluate the swirl. Helical port geometry, SCV shape and bypass were selected as the design parameters to increase the swirl flow and parametric study was performed to choose the optimal port shape that would generate a high swirl ratio efficiently. The results revealed that a key factor in generating a high swirl ratio was to suitably control the direction of the intake air flow passing through the valve seat. For these purposes, we changed the distance of helical and tangential port as well as installed bypass near the valve seat and the effects of intake port geometry on in-cylinder flow field were visualized by a laser sheet visualization method. From the experimental results, we found that the swirl ratio and mass flow rate had a trade off relation. In addition, the result indicates that the bypass is a effective method to increase the swirl ratio without sacrificing mass flow rate.
