Recently, the repair and recycling of damaged mechanical parts via metal additive manufacturing processes have been industrial points of interest. This is because the repair and recycling of damaged mechanical parts can reduce energy and resource consumption. The directed energy deposition(DED) process has various advantages such as the possibility of selective deposition, large building space, and a small heat-affected zone. Hence, it is a suitable process for repairing damaged mechanical parts. The shaft is a core component of various mechanical systems. Although there is a high demand for the repair of the shaft, it is difficult to repair with traditional welding processes because of the thermal deformation problem. The objective of this study is to propose a repair procedure for a damaged shaft using the DED process and discuss its applications. Three types of cases, including a small shaft with a damaged surface, a medium-size shaft with a worn bearing joint, and a large shaft with serious damage, were repaired using the proposed procedure. The microstructure and hardness were examined to discuss the characteristics of the repaired component. The efficiency of the repair of the damaged shaft is also discussed.

전기자동차 산업은 전 세계적 환경규제 정책과 더불어 각 국 정부의 지원이 맞물려 성장이 가속화 되고 있다. 따라서 전기자동차용 배터리에 대한 수요는 지속적으로 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 전기자동차 배터리 시스템은 다수의 배터리 셀 및 모듈을 전기적으로 연결시켜 하나의 배터리 팩으로 적용된다. 이러한 배터리 셀 및 모듈을 접합하는 기술은 성능, 용량 및 안정성에 직접적인 영향을 주기 때문에 매우 중요하다. 따라서 기계적, 전기적 특성 등 여러 기준들을 고려하여 견고하게 조립되어야 한다. 각각의 접합 기술은 서로 다른 장점과 한계를 가지고 있으며, 배터리 셀에 적용할 때에는 몇 가지 기준이 고려되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 배터리 셀 형태에 따른 접합기술의 적용 현황을 조사하고, 저항 용접 및 레이저, 초음파 등 대표적 접합기술에 대한 특징과 장단점을 제공하고자 한다.

The demand for lightweight materials and high-strength steel has rapidly increased to help reduce the weight of a vehicle body; it improves the fuel efficiency of automobiles and provides passenger safety. Additionally, as the material becomes thinner, the demand for its resistance against corrosion becomes higher. Hence, the application of the surface-treated steel sheet has surged rapidly. In this study, a weld bonding experiment using a delta spot welding machine is performed on a thin sheet of a different material (Al6061-T6/GA440). The thickness of the material was kept at 1 mm to reduce the weight of the automobile body parts. Additionally, the purpose of this study is to control the heat input by applying the welding conditions of a multi-stage pressure pattern to improve corrosion resistance shear strength. The analysis of nugget diameter measurement, shear tensile test, and salt spray test was performed to achieve the aim.

Using the spark plasma sintering process (SPS process), the WC-6wt.%Co hard materials were densified using an ultra fine WC-Co powder. The WC-Co was almost completely dense with a relative density of up to 100% after the simultaneous application of a pressure of 60 MPa and the DC pulse current for 3 min without any significant change in the grain size. The average grain size of WC that was produced through this experiment was about $0.2{\sim}0.8{\mu}m$. The hardness and fracture toughness were about $1816kg/mm^2$ and $15.1MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively, for 60 MPa at $1200^{\circ}C$.

Lightweight and flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules are attractive for building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) applications because of their easy construction and applicability. In this study, we fabricated lightweight and flexible c-Si PV modules using ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) front cover and shingled design string cells. The ETFE front cover instead of glass made the PV modules lighter in weight, and the shingled design string cells increased the flexibility. Finally, we fabricated a PV module with a conversion power of 240.08 W at an area of 1.25 m² and weighed only 2 kg/m². Moreover, to check the PV module's flexibility, we conducted a bending test. The difference of conversion power between the modules before and after bending shown was only 1.7 W, which showed a power reduction rate of about 0.7%.

Recently, the installation of photovoltaic modules in urban areas has been increasing. In particular, the demand for solar modules installed in a limited space is increasing. However, since the crystalline silicon solar module's size is proportional to the solar cell's size, it is difficult to manufacture a module that can be installed in a limited area. In this study, we fabricated a solar module with a shingled design that can control horizontal and vertical width using a bi-directional laser scribing method. We fabricated a string cell with a width of 1/5 compared to the existing shingled design string cells using a bi-directional laser scribing method, and we fabricated a solar module by connecting three strings in parallel. Finally, we achieved a conversion power of 5.521 W at a 103 mm × 320 mm area.

Bifacial photovoltaic (PV) technology has received considerable attention in recent years due to the potential to achieve a higher annual energy yield compared to its monofacial PV systems. In this study, we fabricated the bifacial c-Si PV module with a shingled design using the conventional patterned bifacial solar cells. The shingled design PV module has recently attracted attention as a high-power module. Compared to the conventional module, it can have a much more active area due to the busbar-free structure. We employed the transparent backsheet for a light reception at the rear side of the PV module. Finally, we achieved a conversion power of 453.9 W for a 1300 mm × 2000 mm area. Moreover, we perform reliability tests to verify the durability of our Shingled Design Bifacial c-Si Photovoltaic module.

Recently, requirements for improving the convenience of constructing BIPV (Building Integrated Photo Voltaic) modules had increased. To solve this problem, we fabricated shingled PV modules integrated with bent steel plates for building integrated photovoltaics. These PV modules could be constructed directly on the roof without the installation structure. We found optimal lamination conditions with supporting structures to fabricate a module on a bent steel plate. Moreover, we applied a shingled design to PV modules integrated with bent steel plates to achieve a high electrical output power. The shingled module with bent steel plates shows 142.80 W of solar-to-power conversion in 0.785 m² area.

We synthesized ethylene-styrene copolymer using pyrazolato-type metallocene catalysts. We observed the effects of ethylene contents on the catalytic activity, yield molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. We could also confirm living polymerization behavior through the changes of the M_n and M_w/M_n according to the yield.

화력 발전에 의한 전력 생산은 환경오염으로 이어지고 이를 극복하기 위해 태양광 발전 혹은 풍력발전과 같은 신재생에너지원을 이용한 전력 생산이 꾸준히 증가하고 있다. 하지만 신재생에너지는 불규칙적인 전력을 생산할 뿐만 아니라 전력 계통의 도선 및 부하의 임피던스에 의해 계통의 전압 및 주파수가 변동한다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 계통 연계형 스마트 인버터를 사용하여 신재생에너지를 사용함과 동시에 계통의 안전성을 높일 수 있다. 본 논문은 ESS를 사용한 계통 연계형 스마트 인버터의 Voltage-Watt, Voltage-Var 제어 및 Frequency-Watt 제어를 통해 신재생에너지에 의해 발생하는 계통의 문제를 해결하는 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다.
