We propose the use of synchronously moving micro-optics (lenslet arrays) for image pickup and display in three-dimensional integral imaging to overcome the upper resolution limit imposed by the Nyquist sampling theorem. With the proposed technique, we present an all-optical three-dimensional integral imaging projector. An optically addressed spatial light modulator is used, which potentially provides better image resolution than the conventional CCD and liquid crystal display pair. We present experimental results using a liquid crystal light valve.

Injection pressure, an important factor in filling process, should be minimized to enhance injection molding quality. Injection pressure can be controlled by valve gate open timing. In this work, we decided the valve gate open timing to minimize the injection pressure. To solve this design problem, we integrated MAPS-3D (Mold Analysis and Plastic Solution-3Dimension), a commercial injection molding CAE tool, to PIAnO (Process Integration, Automation and Optimization), a commercial PIDO (Process Integration, and Design Optimization) tool using the file parsing method. In order to reduce computational cost, we performed an approximate optimization using meta-models that replaced expensive computer simulations. At first, we carried out DOE (Design of Experiments) using OLHD (Optimal Latin Hypercube Design) available in PIAnO. Then, we built Kriging models using the simulation results at the sampling points. Finally, we used micro GA (Genetic Algorithm) available in PIAnO. Using the proposed design approach, the injection pressure has been reduced by 13.7% compared to the initial one. This design result clearly shows the validity of the proposed design approach.

In this work, SUS310S used for valve plate assembly was electron beam (EB) welded to determine the influence of the parametric conditions on the characteristics of the weld and to minimize porosity and micro-fissures among others. The evolution in the weld geometry and microstructure was examined as a function of the process conditions such as beam current and focusing current under a constant welding speed and accelerating voltage. The integrity of the EB welds in SUS310S was examined for defects (e.g. cracking, porosity, etc.), adequate penetration depth, and tolerable weld width deviation for the various welding conditions. Optical microscopy (OM), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and 3D micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) for the cross section analysis of the electron beam welded SUS310S were utilized. The tensile strength and hardness were analyzed for the mechanical properties of the EB weld. At the 6 kV accelerating voltage, it was determined that a satisfactory penetration depth and desirable weld width deviation requires a beam current of 30 mA and a focusing current of 0.687 A at the welding speed of 25 mm/sec.

Cavity pressure, an important factor in injection molding process, should be minimized to enhance injection molding quality. In this study, we decided the locations of valve gates to minimize the maximum cavity pressure. To solve this problem, we integrated MAPS-3D (Mold Analysis and Plastic Solution-3Dimension), a commercial injection molding analysis CAE tool, using the file parsing method of PIAnO (Process Integration, Automation and Optimization) as a commercial process integration and design optimization tool. In order to reduce the computational time for obtaining the optimal design solution, we performed an approximate optimization using a meta-model that replaced expensive computer simulations. To generate the meta-model, computer simulations were performed at the design points selected using the optimal Latin hypercube design as an experimental design. Then, we used micro genetic algorithm equipped in PIAnO to obtain the optimal design solution. Using the proposed design approach, the maximum cavity pressure was reduced by 17.3% compared to the initial one, which clearly showed the validity of the proposed design approach.

본 논문은 수두증 환자의 체내에 삽입하는 파릴린 막체크 밸브의 제작과 시험에 관한 것이다. 파릴린 막 체크밸브는 세 가지 특징을 가지고 있다. 박막의 초기 인장응력에 따라 특정한 압력 이상에서 밸브가 열리고, 막과 밸브 입구의 크기에 따라 순방향과 역방향 특성을 서로 다르게 하며, 앤티사이폰 역할을 한다. 파릴린 체크 밸브는 상부 기판과 하부 기판으로 구성되어 있다. 하부 기판은 입구, 출구, 유로, 두 개의 완충챔버로 이루어져 있고, 상부 기판은 입구 박막과 두 개의 완충 챔버 박막으로 이루어져 있다. 하부 기판에는 밸브 구멍 주위에 밸브 시트를 두어 두 기판을 조립할 때 밸브 시트가 막을 변형시키면서 박막에 초기 인장 응력을 주도록 되어 있다. 또, 하부 기판에 특정한 각을 가진 유로 및 완충 챔버를 형성하여 역류 발생시 유체를 완충 챔버 쪽으로 흐르게 한다. 유한요소법(FEM)을 이용하여 박막과 밸브 입구의 크기, 박막의 두께 등을 변화시켜가며 박막의 응력과 변형을 해석하였고 해석 결과로부터 밸브 시트의 높이를 결정하였다. 마이크로머시닝으로 두 기판을 제작하고 조립한 후, 순방향과 역방향의 압력에 대한 유량을 측정하여 파릴린 체크 밸브의 특성을 시험하였다.

Since the development of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology for the medical field, various micro-fluid transfer systems have been studied. This paper proposes a micro-piezoelectric pump that imitates a stomach's peristalsis by using two separate piezoelectric elements, in contrast to existing micro-pumps. This piezoelectric pump is operated by using the valve-less traveling wave of peristalsis movement. If the piezoelectric plates at the two separated plates are actuated at the input voltage, a traveling wave occurs between the two plates. Then, the fluid migrates by the pressure difference generated by the traveling wave. Finite element analysis was performed to understand the mechanics of the combined system with piezoelectric elements, elastic structures, and fluids. The effects of design variables such as the chamber height and number of ceramics on the flow rate of the fluid were examined.

The GMR-SV (giant magnetoresistance-spin valve) device depending on the micro patterned features according to two easy directions of longitudinal and transversal axes has been studied. The GMR-SV multilayer structure was Ta(5 nm)/NiFe(8 nm)/Cu(2.3 nm)/NiFe(4 nm)/IrMn(8 nm)/Ta(2.5 nm). The applied anisotropy direction of the GMR-SV thin film was performed under the magnitude of 300 Oe using by permanent magnet during the deposition. The size of micro patterned device was a $1\;{\times}\;18\;{\mu}m^2$ after the photo lithography process. In the aspects of the shape magnetic anisotropy effect, there are two conditions of fabrication for GMR-SV device. Firstly, the direction of sensing current was perpendicular to the magnetic easy axis of the pinned NiFe/IrMn bilayer with the transversal direction of device. Secondly, the direction of shape magnetic anisotropy was same to the magnetic easy axis of the free NiFe layer with the longitudinal direction of device.

Automatic feed pumps are operated and stopped by a pressure switch. Thus, because of repeated operations and stops of the pumps according to fluctuations of water volume, operation with constant rate and pressure is impossible. Moreover, because of repeated running of the pump, keeping up of constant pressure is impossible and damage and energy loss are weak points of the pimps. To make up for defects of an automatic feed pump, this paper designed and made a static pressure feed system which was composed of a feed water control valve, a flow sensor and a control system. The valve device plays an important part in reducing load of pumps by constant water supply regardless of outflow of water. Outflow of water is determined by infrared diode of the flow sensor. The control system is made of a 8 bit micro-processor and the pump was controled by a specific control algorithm. With the constant pressure feed system, discharge pressure was kept at fixed pressure, accurate operations and stops were smoothly accomplished and the pump was operated with constant pressure. Thus, the constant pressure feed system can be considered as an advanced system which made up for the weak points in the current automatic feed systems.

We fabricated micro-pump using stereolithography technology. The pump was fabricated using PZT for its drive and used non-movable valve of diffuser/nozzle concept. Size of the pump chamber is, $14mm{\psi}$, narrow hole of diffuser/nozzle is $0.5mm{\psi}$ and wide hole $1mm{\psi}$ and chamber depth is 1.2mm, respectively. We confirmed its operation at frequency 100Hz, supply voltage $90{\sim}250Vp-p$. As the result of the pump working measurement, when ethanol is used, the pressure head difference between inlet and outlet of the pump is about 53mm in the frequency of 100Hz, 200V of Vp-p.

This paper describes a micro total analysis system ($\mu$ TAS) for detecting and digesting the target protein which includes a bead based temperature controllable microchip and computer based controllers for temperature and valve actuation. We firstly combined the temperature control function with a bead based microchip and realized the on-chip sequential reactions using two kinds of beads. The PEG-grafted bead, on which RNA aptamer was immobilized, was used for capturing and releasing the target protein. The target protein can be chosen by the type of RNA aptamer. In this paper, we used the RNA aptamer of HCV replicase. The trypsin coated bead was used for digesting the released protein prior to the matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometer (MALDI TOF MS). Heat is applied for release of the captured protein binding on the bead, thermal denaturation and trypsin digestion. PDMS microchannel and PDMS micro pneumatic valves were also combined for the small volume liquid handling. The entire procedures for the detection and the digestion of the target protein were successfully carried out on a microchip without any other chemical treatment or off-chip handling using $20\;{\mu}l$ protein mixture within 20 min. We could acquire six matched peaks (7% sequence coverage) of HCV replicase.
