폴리프로필렌 수지를 연속공정으로 발포시킬 때의 공정 변수에 따른 발포체의 구조와 셀 형성에 관한 특성을 연구하였다. 본 실험에서 고려된 발포 공정 변수들은 발포제 함량, 핵제 함량, 다이 온도, 그리고 다이의 치수였다. 셀이 붕괴없이 성장하는데 있어서 발포제인 이소펜탄의 함량은 약 14.5 wt% 이하이었고, 그 이상의 발포 가스가 주입되었을 때에는 압출물이 팽창하는 가스 압력을 극복하지 못하여 셀이 붕괴되는 현상이 나타나며 불안정한 셀 구조를 형성하였다. 핵제는 1 wt%의 소량만으로도 핵제 없이 발포제만으로 생산된 발포체에 비해 약 1/7로 밀도가 감소하였고 셀 밀도는 핵제의 함량에 따라 4배 이상까지 비례하여 증가하였다. 또한, 본 실험에서 상대적으로 낮은 다이 온도였던 17$0^{\circ}C$에서 안정한 셀 구조를 형성하였다. 그러나, 다이 치수를 변화시켜 유도한 압력 감소 속도의 효과는 본 실험에서 두드러지게 나타나지 않았다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mechanical properties of 6061 Al foams, which were fabricated by P/M and multi-step induction heating method, and to build the database, which is needed for computer aided modeling or foam components design. Aluminium foams, consisting of solid aluminium and large quantities of porosities, is widely used in automotive, aerospace, naval as well as functional applications because of its high stiffness at very low density, high impact energy absorption, heat and fire resistance, and greater thermal stability than any organic material. In this study, 6061 Al foams were fabricated for variation of fraction of porosities (%) according to porosities (%)-final heating temperature ( $T_{a3}$) curves. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, energy absorption capacity, and efficiency were investigated to evaluate the feasibility of foams as crash energy absorbing components. Moreover, effect of the surface skin thickness on plateau stress and strain sensitivity of the 6061 Al foams with low porosities (%) were studied.d.

Debris flow is a composition of solid objects of various sizes, suspension and water, which occurs frequently as the results of landslide following heavy rainfall. This often causes extensive damage in the form of socio-economic losses and casualties as witnessed during the incident around Mt. Umyeon, Seoul in 2011. There have been numerous investigation to mitigate the impacts from debris flow; however, the estimation as preparedness measure has not been successful due to nonlinear and multiphase characteristics of phenomena both in material and process inherent in the debris flow. This study presents a numerical approach to simulate the debris flow using open source code of computational fluid dynamics, OpenFOAM with non-Newtonian viscosity model for three phase material modeling. In order to validate the proposed numerical method, the quantitative evaluations were made by comparisons with experimental results and qualitative analysis for the dispersion characteristics was carried for the case of debris flow in the actual incident from Mt. Umyeon.

The main emphasis of this study is to optimize the process variables for manufacturing aluminum foam materials by direct foaming of remelted aluminum scraps. Aluminum foams were fabricated from two different raw materials, pure aluminum and used beverage cans. For both cases, $TiH_{2}$ was used as a foaming agent. Calcium was added as a thickener for the foaming of pure aluminum and no thickener was added for that of used beverage Cans because the pre-existing oxides of the used beverage cans are used as a thickener. Calcium and $TiH_{2}$ content varies from 0.5wt.% to 2.0wt.% and from 0.5wt.% to 1.5wt.%, respectively. The processing conditions, such as the effect of calcium on the melt viscosity, foaming temperature, and the optimum amount of the foaming agent with regard to the melt viscosity were discussed.

Casting defects, which are closely related to entrapped air bubbles and metallic oxides, occur very frequently in the casting process. Many researchers have shown that these defects can be reduced by adopting an appropriate gating system design. But, it is difficult for field engineers to identify a specific gating system that is more appropriate for their products. In this study, we tried to draw a comparison of gating system designs with and without ceramic foam filters. A ceramic foam filter was added to the horizontal runner just after the sprue to prevent air bubble generation and to reduce turbulence without change of the gating system design. To verify the effects of initial pouring velocity, the experiment was conducted with four different amounts of water volume in the reservoir. Results of the water modeling experiment applying the filter showed remarkably changed flow characteristics. Although the study confirmed that use of the filter may change the flow characteristics, it needs to be noted that only filter use alone cannot solve all the problems caused by a poorly designed gating system.

본 연구에서는 polyol, MDI, 실리콘 유화제, 물을 기본 폴리우레탄 조성으로 설정하였으며, 경질 폴리우레탄 폼에 있어서 sitff-chain 요소인 에틸렌 글리콜의 첨가에 의하여 가교밀도가 증가하며, 이에 따른 셀의 크기, 발포 배율, cream time, gel time, take free time의 변화, 최종 자유 발포체 높이, 반응 온도, 단열도 변화를 관찰하였다. 발포제는 시클로펜탄을 사용하여 경질 물리우레탄을 발포하였으며, 상온, 상압에서 hand mixing 으로 5000 rpm, 4sec의 범위 안에서 혼합시킨 뒤에, 에틸렌 글리콜의 양을 변화시켜 200 ${\times}$ 200 ${\times}$ 200 mm 내의 나무 금형 안에서 발포 실험하였다. 이소시아네이트 인덱스를 고정시켰을 경우 에틸렌글리콜의 양이 증가함에 따라 셀의 크기는 약 5.1%와 열전도는 약 14%가 감소하였다.

용매추출에 의한 구연산발효를 시도하였다. 발효 배지내 구연산 농도와 추출용매의 독성이 구연산의 생산성을 결정하는 주 인자였다. 특히 이온화되지 않은 구연산은 강력한 발효억제효과를 가져 구연산 농도가 $5g/\ell$ 이상이면 구연산 생산은 거의 중지되었다. 구연산 추출효율을 높이기 위해 3차 아민과 oleyl alcohol의 혼합액을 용매로 사용하였다. 구연산의 추출발효에 척함한 용매조성은 30% 아민 70 % oleyl alcohol로 밝혀졌다. 이 조건에서 추출발효시 구연산농도는 $15.2g/\ell$ 로 동임한 조건에셔 용매 를 첨가하지 않고 발효하여 얻은 구연산농도 $5g/\ell$에 비해 3배 이상 높았다. 아빈 농도가 30%를 념으 면 추출능은 향상되나 용매의 독성효과로 생산성은 오히려 감소하였다. 균체에 대한 용매의 독성효과는 균체를 polyure-thane foam에 고정화함으로써 현저하게 줄일 수 있었다.

This paper reports on the energy absorption characteristics of a lattice-web reinforced composite sandwich cylinder (LRCSC) which is composed of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) face sheets, GFRP lattice webs, polyurethane (PU) foam and ceramsite filler. Quasi-static compression experiments on the LRCSC manufactured by a vacuum assisted resin infusion process (VARIP) were performed to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed cylinders. Compared with the cylinders without lattice webs, a maximum increase in the ultimate elastic load of the lattice-web reinforced cylinders of approximately 928% can be obtained. Moreover, due to the use of ceramsite filler, the energy absorption was increased by 662%. Several numerical simulations using ANSYS/LS-DYNA were conducted to parametrically investigate the effects of the number of longitudinal lattice webs, the number of transverse lattice webs, and the thickness of the transverse lattice web and GFRP face sheet. The effectiveness and feasibility of the numerical model were verified by a series of experimental results. The numerical results demonstrated that a larger number of thicker transverse lattice webs can significantly enhance the ultimate elastic load and initial stiffness. Moreover, the ultimate elastic load and initial stiffness were hardly affected by the number of longitudinal lattice webs.

In the development of automated driving, interest in the interior parts of vehicle is to become more significant in terms of the occupant safety and comfort. This study proposed an optimal design of front seat according to the design requirements for frame stiffness and seat comfort. For the seat comfort, the appropriate foam thickness was obtained using the structural analysis under reclined occupant loadings. While the strength and stiffness analyses were performed to evaluate the seat frame structure. Topology optimization was carried out based on the simulation results and the derived optimal model and baseline seat design was updated. The conceptual seat design for the autonomous vehicle in this study showed that the model development process is appropriate for the design parameters in both frame stiffness and seat comfort.
