Ultrasonic inspection method is more profitable than X-ray radiographic inspection in cost and effect of defect detection such as dis-bond, damage, and it does'nt need special constructions and can be possible real time inspection with safety. This report explains the experiment and analysis of ultrasonic property of solid propellant and the inspection methods of propellant/liner dis-bond by inside or outside inspection, and of propellnat micro crack by damage. At result, ultrasonics has big attenuation$(6\sim8db/cm)$ in solid propellant, and it. can be possiblle to detect the defect of propellant/liner dis-bond by inside or outside inspection. And also it can be possible to detect the propellant micro crack caused by damage by using ultrasonic attenuation.

Patch type piezo-polymer sensors for smart structures were experimented to detect elastic wave. The pencil lead braking test was performed to analyze the characteristics of patch-type piezo-polymer sensors such as polyvinyliden fluoride (PVDF) and polyvinylidene fluoride trifluorethylene (P(VDF-TrFE)) for several test specimens with various elastic wave velocities and acoustical impedances. The characteristics of the patch-type piezo-polymer sensor were compared with the commercial PZT acoustic emission (AE) sensor. The vacuum grease and epoxy resin were used as a couplant for the acoustic impedance matching between the sensor and specimen. The peak amplitude of elastic wave increased as the diameter of piezo-film and acoustical impedance of the specimen increased. The frequency detection range of the piezo-film sensors decreased with increasing diameter of the piezo-film sensor. The P(VDF-TrFE) sensor was more sensitive than the PVDF sensor.

In this study, we developed a phosphor film screen that can be applied to radiographs during non-destructive testing using Gd₂O₂S:Tb phosphor compounds. The image uniformity of the fabricated phosphor screen film was analyzed by FE-SEM, RMS and RDS analysis. In addition, the tensile strength, elongation, and modulus of elasticity of the Gd₂O₂S:Tb phosphor screen were evaluated by measuring the stress-strain characteristic curve. As a result, it was evaluated that the RSD value had an excellent image uniformity within 10% of the evaluation criteria. In addition, as a result of evaluation of physical properties, the tensile strength was 1.1760 N/㎟, the tensile strength at break was 1.1515 N/㎟. These results suggest that the Gd₂O₂S:Tb phosphor screen fabricated using the room temperature gel-printing method could be applied to digital radiography detectors for radiography.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate components of surface roughness in turning with respect to the tool configuration and the changes of working conditions. Tool configurations of SNMG120404, SNMG120408 and DNMG150404, DNMG150408 are used, and working conditions such as cutting speed 3nd feed are varied. That is, the changes of cutting speed and feed were 150, 200, 250 m/min and 0.05, 0.1, 0.3 mm/rev, respectively. From the results obtained by the frequency analysis with spectrum, it is noted that the surface roughness was influenced most significantly by the feed. It is also observed that the vibration of bite had an effect on both the surface roughness and the surface waviness. Moreover, the influence of surface roughness increases as the feed decreases. Lastly, the vibration of the spindle was found to have little influence on the surface roughness in normal cases and the tool configuration was not the components of the surface roughness.

The propagation characteristics of a mechanical wave in human soft tissue depend on its elastic properties. Investigation of these propagation characteristics is of paramount importance because it may enable us to diagnose cancer or tumor from the vibration response of the tissue. This paper investigates and compares displacement patterns generated in soft tissue due to several forms of low-frequency vibration sources placed on a surface. Among vibration sources considered are a normal load, tangential load, and antiplane shear load. We derive analytical expressions for displacements in viscoelastic single layers, and calculate displacement patterns in half space and infinite plate type tissue. Also, we simulate the vibration response of a finite-sized tissue using finite element method. The effects of the type of stress, the size and frequency of vibration sources, and medium boundaries on displacement patterns are discussed.

Ultrasonic nonlinear evaluation is generally utilized for detection of not only defects but also microdamage such as corrosion and plastic deformation. Nonlinearity is determined by the amplitude ratio of primary wave second harmonic wave, and the results of its comparison are used for evaluation. Owing to the experimental features, the experimental nonlinearity result contains system nonlinearity and material nonlinearity. System nonlinearity is that which is unwanted by the user; hence, it acts as an error and interrupts analysis. In this study, a bulk wave mixing technique is implemented in order to minimize the system nonlinearity and obtain the reliable analysis results. The biggest advantage of this technique is that experimental nonlinearity contains less system nonlinearity than that for the conventional nonlinear ultrasonic technique. Theoretical and experimental verifications are performed in this study. By comparing the results of the bulk wave mixing technique with those of the conventional technique, the strengths, weaknesses, and application validity of the bulk wave mixing technique are determined.

열교환기(Heat Exchanger)는 원전 운영에 핵심적인 설비이다. 따라서 열교환기 전열관의 건전성 유무를 판단키 위해 정기적으로 비파괴검사의 일종인 와전류검사(ECT, Eddy Current Testing)를 수행하고 있다. 이러한 와전류검사 공정은 크게 3가지로 분류할 수 있다. 첫 번째는 전열관 상태검사를 위한 신호데이터 취득공정이고, 두 번째는 취득된 신호를 판독하여 전열관의 건전성 여부를 진단하는 평가공정, 마지막으로 평가공정에서 발생하는 방대한 데이터를 토대로 추이분석 자료를 제공할 수 있는 공정이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 세 번째 공정에서 필요한 열교환기 Tubesheet를 사용자 정의에 따라 자동으로 구현할 수 있는 기능을 정의하고, 평가공정에서 발생한 데이터를 직접 Tubesheet상에 Mapping 처리하여 시각적으로 전열관 상태를 확인할 수 있는 프로그램 구현방법을 제시한다.

자기누설탐상시스템은 지하에 매설된 가스관에서 발생되는 부식이나 크랙 또는 기계적 변형을 탐지하기 위한 방법으로 비파괴검사 방법의 하나이다. 가스관은 Nd자석에 의해 착자가 되고, 가스관에 부식이 발생했을 경우 가스관의 단면적이 작아지게 되어 자기누설이 발생하며, 발생된 자기누설을 홀센서로 검출하여 부식의 유무, 크기, 모양 등을 판별하게 된다. 지하매설 배관은 배관의 직경은 같으나 배관의 두께는 다양하게 존재한다. 특히 30inch의 배관에는 배관의 두께가 11.1, 14.3, 17.5 mm 등이 있다. 자기누설탐상시스템은 배관의 단면적 변화를 감지하는 것이기 때문에 배관의 두께에 따라 그 특성이 변화하게 된다. 또한 두께에 따른 결함의 종류에 따라서 검출신호도 변화하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 배관의 두께 변화에 따른 검출신호를 분석하였으며, 두께 변화의 영향을 적용하여 검출신호를 보정하기 위한 방법을 제시하였다.

These studies were carried out to develop a system for non -destructive and continuous measurement of fresh weight and to analyse the growth response of leaf lettuce under the different nutrient solution and light condition with this system. The developed measurement system was consisted of four load cells and a microcomputer. The output from the system was highly positive correlation with the plant fresh weight above the surface of the hydroponic solution. The top fresh weight of plant could be measured within the error $\pm$ 1.0g in the range of 0 - 2000g. The top fresh weight of leaf lettuce increased 44 times at 18th day after transferring to the nutrient solution, and the maximum growth rate was observed at 13th day after transferring. The growth rate was 10.7- 29.6% per day during 18 days. Optimum concentration of the nutrient solution for the growth of lettuce was 1.4 - 2.2 mS/cm of EC level. When the light condition was changed from dark to light, the fresh weight was temporarily decreased, but the fresh weight increased under the opposite condition. Top fresh weight of leaf lettuce in the darkness normally increased within 12 hours after darkness treatment, and then slowly increased until 78 hours under continuous dark condition. After that times, the fresh weight began to decrease.

200keV의 에너지로 산소 이온들을 주입한 후 열처리하여 만든 SIMOX의 층구조를 분광 타원해석법을 이용하여 비파괴적으로 분석하여, 약 $300AA$의 계면층과 $800\AA$의 매몰산화층이 $3360\AA$ 정도의 결정성 실리콘층 아래에 존재하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 매몰산화층의 분포와 TRIM 전산시늉 결과의 비교로부터 매몰산화층의 형성은 산소 이온들이 열처리에 따라 이온 주입시 실리콘의 비정질화가 최대인 곳 주변으로 이동하여 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한 측정 위치에 따른 분광 타원해석 상수들의 변화로부터 이온주입시의 이온빔의 형태와 주사 방향의 영향으로 생긴 SIMOX층구조의 비균일성을 알 수 있었다.
