Hydroforming has attracted the attention of manufacturing industries for vehicles and transportation systems. A wide range of products such as subframes, camshafts, radiator frames, axles and crankshafts are made by the hydroforming process. Hydroformed parts often need to be structurally joined to other components during assembly. Therefore it is useful if the hydroformed automotive parts can be attached with a localized flange. In this study, a hydroforming process to produce a rectangular shape flange is proposed. FE analysis to form the flanged rectangular shape was performed by Dynaform 5.5. The hydroforming characteristics at various die aspect ratios and feeding conditions were analyzed and optimal process conditions which can avoid defects are suggested. For validation purposes, hydroforming experiments to form the flange were conducted with the optimized conditions. The results show that the flanged parts can be successfully formed with a hydroforming process without additional processing steps.

This thesis studies the order release scheduling by lead time offsetting technique in MRP system. MRP is the process of working backward from the scheduled completion dates of end products or major assemblies to determine the dates and quantities when the various component parts and materials are to be ordered. It aims getting the right quantity of component parts to the right places at the right time with a schedule that puts each parts or subassembly into stock shortly ahead of the need for that parts or subassembly. The planned order release point of a item can be easily decided when the scheduled completion date and planned lead time is certain and known before by lead time offsetting technique in MRP system.

In order to predict the future needs of the aircraft repair parts, each military group develops and applies various techniques to their characteristics. However, the aircraft and the equipped weapon systems are becoming increasingly advanced, and there is a problem in improving the hit rate by applying the existing demand prediction technique due to the change of the aircraft condition according to the long term operation of the aircraft. In this study, we propose a new prediction model based on the conventional time-series analysis technique to improve the prediction accuracy of aircraft repair parts by using machine learning model. And we show the most effective predictive method by demonstrating the change of hit rate based on actual data.

This paper discusses heat problem of IC, which composes the electronic instruments, to guarantee reliability of electronic instruments. And also proposes the unified equivalent model for various electronic instrument products to guarantee reliability and life of its parts. Because electronic instruments are down sizing and operated with high frequency, the internal temperature of electronic instruments is rising steadily. The internal temperature of the electronic instruments gives a big effect to electronic instrument's reliability and life. The semiconductor parts are the representative heat generation parts because of its complicated function, high frequency and high density. Consequently, guaranteeing reliability and life of electronic semiconductor is the important start point in securing the reliability and life of the electronic instrument product. Unfortunately, there are many factors, which affect heat dissipation efficiency. The heat dissipation efficiency follows the environment where the electronic instrument products are used. Therefore it is very difficult to define reliability and life of the electronic manufactures. Electronic instrument products are composed of printed circuit board (PCB), integrated circuit (IC), resistance, and capacitor and so on. And there are superposed thermal resistances, because the parts are arrayed on the printed circuit board (PCB), Therefore the total thermal resistance is variable. Consequently it cannot have same thermal model for each electronic instrument products. In the next part, we propose the unified equivalent model for various electronic instruments. And using the proposed equivalent model proofs the method for analysis reliability of electronic parts.

Pump-turbine system is widely used by the hydropower industry for stabilizing the electrical grid in the vast growing economy of most developed countries. This study only investigates the Fluid-structure Interaction (FSI) analysis of the pump-turbine system at various operating conditions. The FSI analysis can show how reliable each component of the system is by providing the engineer with a better understanding of high stress and deformation points, which could reduce the lifespan of the pump-turbine. Pump-turbine components are categorized in two parts, pressurized static parts and movable stressed parts. The fixed parts include the spiral casing, top and bottom cover, stay vane and draft tube. The movable parts include guide vanes and impeller blades. Fine hexahedral numerical grids were used for CFD calculation and fine tetrahedral grids were used for structural analysis with imported load solution mapping greater than 90 %. The maximum equivalent stress are much smaller than the material yield stress, and the maximum equivalent stress showed an increasing tendency with the varying of operating conditions from partial to excessive at both modes. In addition, the total deformation of all the operating conditions showed a small magnitude, which have quite small influence on the structural stability. It can be conjectured that this system can be safely implemented.

Contents of carotenoids, phenolic compounds, volatile organic compounds, and alkaloids in leaves, internodes, fruits, and roots of tomatoes in different developmental stages were measured. Lycopene, ${\beta}$-carotene, and lutein were detected in all the tested parts except roots and green fruits. Lycopene content in red fruits was $49.04{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW, while that in the other parts was below $40{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW. ${\beta}$-Carotene and lutein contents in 24th leaves were 5.81 and $6.40{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW, respectively, and were greater than those in the other parts. Caffeic, chlorogenic, and vanillic acids were detected in all the tested parts except roots. The content of chlorogenic acid in the 18th leaves was $40.11{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW, while that in the other parts was lower than $31.00{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW. The contents of caffeic and vanillic acids in the 24th leaves were 9.18 and $1.64{\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW, respectively, and were greater than those in the other parts. Moreover, younger leaves contained the more diverse volatile organic compounds including monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes. Contents of dehydro-tomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine were greatest in leaves, followed by internodes, roots and fruits. Younger leaves and internodes contained more dehydro-tomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine than older leaves and internodes. The contents of dehydro-tomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine in the 24th leaves were 0.89 and $1.42mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$ FW, respectively, and were greatest among all the tested parts. Our results indicated that, except lycopene, tomato leaves included greater secondary metabolites contents than red fruits. The results suggest that inedible parts of tomato plants can be used as raw material for antioxidants, anti-inflammatory agents, fungistats, and pesticides.

The materials, parts, and equipment industries are the backbone of the manufacturing industry and a key element of competitiveness. However, in the case of Korea, as it relies on foreign countries for core materials, parts, and equipment, it is in danger of not only industrial competitiveness, but also security. This study first looked at the outline and current address of the materials, parts, and equipment industries, identified problems and improvements, and examined the efforts and achievements so far for the localization of materials, parts, and equipment in Korea. In addition, after looking at the improvement measures for the government's material, parts, and equipment industry at the institutional level or at the ecological level, the current status and actual condition of localization of local materials, parts and equipment were investigated, and problems and improvements were analyzed. Lastly, this study presented a technology development plan for localization of parts and materials in the region and various institutional improvement plans related to commercialization.

The Yongin Light Rail train was manufactured by Bombardier Transportation in Canada in 2008 and is a privately invested railway line that has been operating in Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, since 2013. When the frequency of train failure increases due to aging, and there is a delay in the delivery period of imported parts used in the Bombardier manufactured trains, timely vehicle maintenance may not be performed due to lack of parts. To solve this problem, it is necessary to build a 'vehicle parts maintenance demand forecasting system' that analyzes the accurate and actual maintenance demand annual based on the condition of vehicle parts. The full scope of analysis in this paper analyzes failure data from various angles after opening of Yongin light rail vehicle to analyze failure patterns for each part and identify replacement cycles according to possible failures and consumption of parts. Based on this study, it is expected that Yongin Light Rail's maintenance system will change from the existing time-based replacement (TBM) concept to the condition-based maintenance (CBM) concept. It is expected that this study will improve the efficiency of the Yongin Light Rail maintenance system and increase vehicle availability. This paper is a fundamental for establishing of a system for predicting the replacement timing of vehicle parts for Yongin Light Rail. It reports the results of data analysis on some vehicle parts.

The volatile components, normal hydrocarbons, organic acids, and nonvolatile fatty acids in the various parts of Luffa cylindrica(L.) Roemer(sponge-gourd) were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. More than 150 volatile components were separated and thirty seven components were identified and quantified. The contents of essential oil were 0.05%, 0.05%, and 0.08% on a dried weight base in leaves, stem, and seeds respectively. Fruit juice and sap contained 0.06% and 0.03% oil on the fresh weight base. Twenty six components of normal hydrocarbons in leaves, stem, seed, and unripe fruit were separated, identified, and quantified. The total concentrations of the hydrocarbons were $75.5\;{\mu}g/g$ in leaf, $52.0\;{\mu}g/g$ in stem, $46.6\;{\mu}g/g$ in fruit juice, and $32.8\;{\mu}g/g$ in seed fractions. The major hydrocarbons in leaves, stem, and fruit juice were $nC_{25}$, $nC_{27}$, $nC_{29}$, and $nC_{31}$, $nC_{16}$, $nC_{17}$, $nC_{18}$, and $nC_{19}$ were abundant in seeds mainly. The concentration of malonic acid among the five organic acids was highest in leaves, stem, and flowers. Unripe fruit contained 24.5 mg/g of the five organic acids and malic and citric acids were higher. The concentrations of palmitic, linoleic, and linolenic acids were higher concentration in the various parts of sponge-gourd and palmitic acid was distributed in the most parts. The concentrations of organic and fatty acids in the sap were negligible.

In this paper, an improved fractal color image decoding method using the data dependence parts and the vector distortion measure is proposed. The vector distortion measure exploits the correlation between different color components. The pixel in RGB color space can be considered as a 30dimensional vector with elements of RGB components. The root mean square error(rms) in RGB color for similarity measure of two blocks R and R' was used. We assume that various parameter necessary in image decoding are stored in the transform table. If the parameter is referenced in decoding image, then decoding is performed by the recursive decoding method. If the parameter is not referenced in decoding image, then the parameters recognize as the data dependence parts and store its in the memory. Non-referenced parts can be decoded only one time, because its domain informations exist in the decoded parts by the recursive decoding method. Non-referenced parts are defined the data dependence parts. Image decoding method using data dependence classifies referenced parts and non-referenced parts using information of transform table. And the proposed method can be decoded only one time for R region decoding speed than Zhang & Po's method, since it is decreased the computational numbers by execution iterated contractive transformations for the referenced range only.
