This work evaluated the extractability of tobacco stem biomass for the papermaking type Reconstituted Tobacco Sheet(RTS). The effects of the soaking conditions on the hydration of stem biomass and the effects of the hydrated state on the mechanical extraction were investigated. In order to simulate the mechanical expression process of a papermaking type RTS mill, for example, the screw press process, the novel mechanical pressing analyzer was developed for this study. The hydration of stem biomass by soaking process was greatly affected by the soaking time and the soaking temperature. The longer soaking time and the higher soaking temperature resulted in the higher hydrated stem biomass. Since the higher hydrated stem had more combined water in the inner structure and resulted in the more flexible structure, the higher hydrated stem leaded to the more compressed filter cake and the higher water contents in the filter cake after the mechanical pressing. The pilot pulping experiments showed the difference in hydration and extractability between burley and bright tobacco stem. The bulkier structure of the burley stem resulted in the faster hydration by pilot pulping and leaded to the larger reduction in water soluble components. And the hydration process showed the major influence on the separation efficiency of water soluble components.

The aquaculture tank is used for breeding fish in sea water which was pumped up to land. The flow characteristics in the aquaculture were investigated with varying the tank geometry and flow rate. The numerical analysis has been employed for calculating the velocity and temperature distributions in a water tank of rectangular type. The finite volume method and SIMPLE algorithm with 3-dimensional standard $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model were used for the numerical analysis. For comparison with experimental results, the PIV system was applied to visualize the flow patterns quantitatively. The numerical results showed good agreements with the experimental results. The mean velocity and temperature versus aquarium depth were represented for various circulating flow rates. Especially, the aquaculture environment is recommended that the aquarium depth has to be d=0.5 m, and this case is the condition of higher velocity and temperature in winter season.

A new method of measuring the thermal diffusivity of solid material at room temperature using photothermal displacement is proposed. The influence of the parameters, such as radius and modulation frequency of the pump beam and the sample thickness, was studied. In previous works, thermal diffusivity was determined by the deformation angle and phase angle as the relative position between the heating and probe beams. In this study, however, we proposed the new analysis method based on the real part of deformation angle as the relative position between two beams. From the zero-crossing position of real part of deformation angle with respect to the pump beam, the thermal diffusivity of the materials can be obtained. The experimental values for different samples obtained by applying the new method are in good agreement with the literature values.

A rotor is a crucial component in various mechanical assemblies. Additionally, high-speed and high-efficiency components are required in the automotive industry, manufacturing industry, and turbine systems. In particular, the failure of high-speed rotating bearings has catastrophic effects on auxiliary systems. Therefore, bearing reliability and fault diagnosis are essential for bearing maintenance. In this work, we performed failure mode and effect analysis on bearing rotors and determined that corrosion is the most critical failure type. Furthermore, we conducted experiments to extract vibration characteristic data and preprocess the vibration data through principle component analysis. Finally, we applied a machine learning algorithm called support vector machine to diagnose the failure and observed a classification performance of 98%.

A tungsten material using a pressure sintering process and a titanium sintering additive was prepared to evaluate the microstructure, and mechanical properties of flexural strength and hardness. In addition, the reliability on each hardness data was evaluated by analyzing the distribution of the hardness of the tungsten material using the Weibull probability distribution. In particular, the optimal manufacturing conditions were analyzed by analyzing the correlation between the sintering temperature and the mechanical properties of the tungsten sintered body. Although the sintering density of the tungsten material was hardly changed up to 1700 ℃, but it was increased at 1800 ℃. The hardness of the tungsten sintered material increased as the sintering temperature increased, and in particular, the tungsten material sintered at 1800 ℃ showed a high hardness value of about 1790 Hv. It showed relatively excellent flexural strength at a sintering temperature of 1800 ℃.

The need for remanufacturing ships and various mechanical components continues to increase along with environmental problems. Research on remanufacturing is being carried out in various fields, but research on cleaning is quite insufficient. In particular, there is no research on the cleaning-ability of diverse mechanical components. In order to increase the life cycle of mechanical components, remanufacturing must be considered from the step of design. Particularly, it is also very important to evaluate the degree of easiness in cleaning to remove various pollutants generated by long-term use quickly as well as easily. In this study, the degree of easiness in cleaning is defined as cleaning-ability. In fact, remanufacturing components can be easily done only when cleaning-ability is set high from the step of design. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cleaning-ability of ships and various mechanical components. The details of easiness in cleaning are cleaning and drying identification, accessibility to cleaning tools, convenience in cleaning, and convenience in drying. This study presents a quantitative procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability, derived various factors influencing each of the details of easiness and their ranges, and gave scores to the factors according to their ranges. The weight was also calculated for the details of easiness in cleaning and the factors. Lastly, this researcher suggests a scoring procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability quantitatively and the total weight of cleaning-ability.
