Recently, the use of Robot increase little by little for the purpose of developing a welding quality and productivity in the welding part. It is more important to contact the seam for arc welding before moving a welding robot. There are two types of method to contact the seam namely contact and non-contact type largely. In this paper, image processing sensor(a kind of non-contact sensor) is concerned to track the seam by using laser diode and CCD camera. A structured laser diode's light illuminated on the weld groove and the reflected shape is introduced by CCD camera. The image board captures this image and software analyzes this image. The robot is moved and welded exactly as acquired image X-Y data is changed with robot's X-Y value. Also, most of seam tracking are considered by changing the program simply in case of the different weld groove of plane surface.

Bio-oil has attracted considerable interest as one of the promising renewable energy resources because it can be used as a feedstock in conventional petroleum refineries for the production of high value chemicals or next-generation hydrocarbon fuels. Currently, catalytic vapor cracking is considered the most potential upgrading method for stabilization of bio-oil, which is a pre-process required prior to feeding bio-oil into refineries. This review introduces the recent research and development trends on bio-oil upgrading via catalytic vapor cracking, focusing on catalysts and upgrading methods used.

This paper reports that the ultrastructural nature of the interface process between the implants and surrounding bone has been studied after in vivo 1, 4, 8, 12 weeks of implantation of smooth machined implants into rabbit tibias. There was no indication of the fibrous connective tissue formation around the implant that imply intolerance of the bone tissue towards the implant after 1 week of implantation. The regions showing direct bone tissue bonding to the smooth machined implant contained osteoblast activating across the interface in the direction after 4 weeks of implantation. The reaction of a smooth machined implant caused in the first instance formation of an amorphous woven bone, which transformed into a mineralized bone containing collagen fibers. After 8 weeks of implantation, the activities of osteoblast initiated osseointegration forming bone matrix at the interface. During this period, the osteoblast surrounded with a matrix consisting of collagen bundles running in various directions. In the interface area between newly formed bone tissue and implants which has been inserted in rabbit tibias for 12 weeks, the implant and mineralized bone was separated by an amorphous electron dense material layer about $1{\sim}1.5{\mu}m$ in thickness.

The purpose of this study is to examine mediation role of parental attachment, school bonding and delinquent peers in effects of child abuse experience on offending school violence among middle school students. The survey was conducted for boys and girls enrolled in 50 middle schools located in Seoul and Kyung-ki province from October 15 to November 25 in 2012 and total 1,563 were used for final analysis. PASW 18.0, AMOS 18.0 and Mplus were used for statistical analysis. Major findings of this study are as follows. Child abuse experience is analyzed as effecting directly to offending in school violence but also having indirect effecting through mediation process with parental attachment, school bonding and delinquent peers from the analysis of structural equation model. Another finding indicates that multiple indirect effects of parental attachment, school bonding, delinquent peers through Mplus nonlinear analysis, pathways including mediator of parental attachment, school bonding and delinquent peers are verified as statistically significance. Below is discussed for practical and policy implications to prevent school violence in middle school based on this study.

An elastomer (especially PDMS) sponge is considered to be a promising selective absorber in cleaning up oil spills. The performance of a PDMS sponge in capturing and separating oil from (sea) water depends on several parameters such as surface roughness, physicochemical treatments, and hydrostatic stability. Here, we first present a method of fabricating the PDMS sponges having numerous micro-sized pores that act as absorption and storage spaces for the target material, and then we report an experimental effort undertaken to control the surface physicochemistry (i.e., hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity) of the PDMS sponges by adjusting the size of the pores and the concentration of the surfactant (i.e., silwet L-77). From the experimental results, we develop an in-depth understanding of the mechanism for controlling the surface physicochemistry of PDMS using water-soluble micro-sized particles and a surfactant. The surface energy and absorbing behavior of the PDMS sponges are also extensively discussed.

Multi-layered stone masonry monuments, such as stone pagoda can be modeled as a multi-degrees of freedom system. The dynamic behavior of these structures are mainly influenced by contour condition of contacting surface of stones. In this case the mass of the system can be easily estimated, mean while the estimation of stiffness at junction is not simple. In this paper a method for estimating the spring constant at the contacting surface of stone in proposed. This paper describes a method of computational modelling technique for structural analysis of stone pagodas using measurement of natural frequency and eigenvalue analysis. For this purpose Five story stone pagoda in Cchongnimsa site was selected as a model.

North Korea invaded South Korea on June 25, 1950 and the armistice agreement was reached on July 27, 1953. After that, there have been about 5,000 provocations large and small. In particular, North Korea attacked a naval vessel called "Cheonanham" on March 26, 2010. After the attack, Korean government announced the sanctions against North Korea, so called "May 24 sanctions". North Korea bombarded Yeonpyeong provocation on November 23, 2010 and they planted wood box mines in the DMZ on August 4, 2015. The explosion of them resulted in injuring two Korean soldiers. In response to this accident, Korean government resumed loudspeaker broadcasting against North Korea in 11 years which had developed as the psychological warfare. After this, North Korea declared "being a state of war" and intensified tension. Suddenly North Korea suggested talks and two countries reached an agreement through inter-Korean high-level contacts. But we should review whether the agreement was reached with ease and in haste. This paper focuses on the North Korea's negotiating tactics and suggests our corresponding directions for the future.

An aircraft power distribution device distributes and controls the power generated by the generator and provides overcurrent protection. There are many defect phenomena that make AC power distribution impossible during flight, which poses a problem in because some electronic equipment cannot be operated. We describe a process of deriving the root cause of defects by using vibration testing equipment to simulate the vibration conditions during aircraft flight, which result in defects. The results show that the cause of the defect is internal wiring damage caused by the vibration of the contactor of the AC power distribution device. Therefore, the shape of the contactor was improved to solve this problem. We also improved the test procedure by performing defect detection tests using vibration testing equipment to detect a faulty contactor. As a result of the improvements, a component certification test and flight test proved that the defect phenomena of the AC electrical master box were improved.

In this paper, geometrically and materially non-linear finite element analyses were performed to study the crease behavior of thin membranes. The cross-section of the membrane was modeled with 2-dimensional plane strain elements. To simulate the creasing process, the membrane mesh was folded, compressed to prescribed crease gauge by activating two rigid contact surfaces, and then released to give the crease topology. Various crease gauges were considered to investigate the effect of crease intensity on the initial deployment angle. The crease geometry was also obtained by experiments and the results were compared.
