Gears are critical elements in automobiles, and their use as power transmitting machine elements in engineering applications is quite extensive. In the areas of contact between gear teeth, the condition of a gear is likely to deteriorate due to contact fatigue, wear, material defects, lubrication failure, etc. Thus, it is necessary to monitor its condition to ensure smooth power transmission. Gear teeth deterioration causes failures such as abrasive wear, scuffing, pitting, and spalling. These failures lead to a higher level of vibration signals in the gear system. This paper presents the results of an experiment on the surface fatigue wear of a spur gear system. The correlation between the estimated specific film thickness, statistical parameter of the vibration signals, and Stribeck curve was considered in this study.

그래핀(Graphene)은 열전도도가 높고 전자 이동도(200,000 cm2V-1s-1)가 우수한 전기적 특성을 가지고 있어 전계 효과 트랜지스터(Field effect transistor; FET), 유기 전자 소자(Organic electronic device)와 광전자 소자(Optoelectronic device) 같은 반도체 소자에 응용 가능하다. 최근에는 아크 방출(Arc discharge method), 화학적 기상 증착법(Chemical vapor deposition; CVD), 이온-조사법(Ionirradiation)등을 이용한 이종원자(Hetero atom)도핑과 화학적 처리를 이용한 기능화(Functionalization)등의 방법으로 그래핀의 전도도를 향상시킬 수 있었다. 그러나 이러한 방법들은 기판의 표면을 거칠게 하며, 그래핀에 많은 결함들이 발생한다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 자가조립 단층막법(Self-assembled monolayers; SAMs)을 이용하여 기판을 기능화한 후 그 위에 그래핀을 전사하면, 자가조립 단층막의 기능기에 따라 그래핀의 일함수를 조절 가능하고 운반자 농도나 도핑 유형을 변화시켜 소자의 전기적 특성을 최적화 할 수 있다 [1-3]. 본 연구에서는 PET(polyethylene terephthalate) 기판에 SAMs를 이용하여 유연하고 투명한 그래핀 전극을 제작하였다. 산소 플라즈마와 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)를 이용하여 PET 기판 표면 위에 하이드록실 기(Hydroxyl group; -OH)와 아민 기(Amine group; -NH2)를 순차적으로 기능화 하였고, 그 위에 화학적 기상 증착법을 이용하여 합성한 대면적의 균일한 그래핀을 전사하였다. PET 기판 위에 NH2 그룹이 존재하는 것을 접촉각 측정(Contact angle measurement)과 X-선 광전자 분광법(Xray photoelectron spectroscopy: XPS)을 통해 확인하였으며, NH2그룹에 의해 그래핀에 도핑 효과가 나타난 것을 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)과 전류-전압 특성곡선(I-V characteristic curve)을 이용하여 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과는 유연하고 투명한 기판 위에 안정적이면서 패턴이 가능하기 때문에 그래핀을 기반으로 하는 반도체 소자에 적용 가능할 것이라 예상된다.

The effects of $SO_2$ on the performance of proton exchange membrane(PEMFC) were investigated by introduction air containing $SO_2$ into cathode inlet of PEMFC. And the recovery of the cell performance by applying clean air, cycle voltammetry(CV) and high voltage holding following exposure contaminated air was studied. The $SO_2$ concentration range used in the experiments was from 20 ppb to 1.3 ppm. The performance degradation and recovery were measured by constant-current discharging, I-V polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). The cell voltage gradually decayed with time and decreased by 17 mV after 200 hours of 20 ppb $SO_2$ injection. The cell performance can be recovered partially by clean air flushing, CV and high voltage holding due to desorption of S from Pt catalyst.

Plants living riverside show diverse resistance responses to submergence. The promoted petiole elongation of semi-aquaitc plants, e.g., such as Ranunculus sceleratus and Rumex palustris, is one of the adaptive responses mediated by the plant hormone ethylene. The gaseous hormone is trapped in submerged plant tissues and enhances the petiole growth by increasing sensitivity of the tissues to some plant hormones including auxin. Due to the stimulated growth of petioles, the leaves finally reach the water surface and can respirate again. At the water surface, the accumulated ethylene diffuses out from the tissues to the air. As a result, the increased hormone sensitivity decreases again, and thus the growth rate reduces to the basal level as before. The increased auxin sensitivities by ethylene observed in Ranunculus sceleratus, revealed by the changes in the auxin dose-response curves, indicate the increase of affinities of the receptors to auxin. However, the molecular mechanism of the affinity regulation remains still largely unknown, because the identity of the auxin receptor is still unclear.

The nature, degree, and evolution of contact damage from Hertzian contacts in silicon nitride-boron nitride composites($Si_3N_4-BN$) are investigated as a function of boron nitride content. The strong deviations of indentation stress-strain from elastic response indicate exceptional plasticity in $Si_3N_4-BN$. The absence of ring cracks or cone cracks on the surfaces is observed, indicating a high damage tolerance. Subsurface quasi- plastic deformation by shear stress is considerable and microdamage is widely distributed within the region below the contact. Shear faults associated with local microfailures play a precursor role in plasticity of this material. When boron nitride content increases, $Si_3N_4-BN$ becomes softer and more quasi-plastic.

최근 환경오염 문제로 인한 연비 규제 강화 속도가 빨라지고 있으며 이에 따른 연비 향상 기술이 크게 대두 되고 있다. 연비 향상 기술 중 경량화 방안소재로 알루미늄(Al), 마그네슘(Mg) 등의 비철금속을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 이중 알루미늄은 다른 경량화 금속소재보다 우수한 경쟁력을 가지고 있다. 하지만 경제적인 측면에서 철 대비 비용적인 어려움을 가지고 있고 용접성이 떨어지기 때문에, 자동차 부품의 일부만 알루미늄 소재를 선택하여 사용하고 있는 실정이며 알루미늄의 높은 이온화 경향으로 인해 기존 자동차 철강 소재와 접촉 시 쉽게 부식되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 알루미늄의 금속원소를 첨가하는 연구가 지속적으로 개발 되고 있다. 알루미늄 합금에서 마그네슘의 첨가는 좋은 용접성과 내식성, 강도를 향상시킨다. 하지만 3%이상의 마그네슘 첨가는 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상이 석출되게 되며, 입계에 연속적으로 형성된 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상은 응력 부식 균열 (Stress corrsion cracking)과 입계 부식(Intergranular corrosion)을 야기하는 결과를 가져온다고 알려져 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 Al 5000계열 합금의 Zn의 첨가를 통해 ${\tau}(Al_xMg_yZn_z)$을 입계에 석출시켜서 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$상의 석출을 방지함으로써 내식성을 향상시키거나 Al 5000계열 합금의 열처리를 통해 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상을 고용시킴으로써 응력부식균열의 발생을 억제하는 연구도 있다. 하지만 열처리 후 Polarization test를 이용한 내식성 연구는 잘 안 알려져 있다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 Al5000계열의 주조한 합금을 DSC분석을 통하여 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상의 고용 온도가 약 $470^{\circ}C$라는 것을 확인한 후, 실온에서 $100^{\circ}C/hr$으로 가열하고 조건에 따라 $450^{\circ}C$에서 3시간, 6시간, 12시간, 24시간, 30시간 항온 유지시킨 후 공냉을 진행하였다. 열처리를 마친 시편은 에폭시를 이용하여 마운팅 하였으며, 시편표면을 2000#까지 연마 후 증류수로 세척한 다음 질소를 이용하여 건조 후 분극 시험을 진행하였다. 3.5wt% NaCl 용액에서 분극 곡선을 통해 부식거동을 확인한 결과 24시간까지 시간이 증가 할수록 내식성이 우수해지는 것을 확인하였으며, 추가적으로 조직사진, SEM & EDS 분석과 XRD, TEM 분석을 통해 내식성은 입계에 존재하는 Mg의 조성이 감소하게 되면 내식성이 향상되는 것을 관찰하였다.

Malachite green is used a dye but malachite green is harmful toxic substance. In this study, the adsorption characteristics of zeolite has been investigated for the adsorption of malachite green dissolved in water. The effects of initial dye concentration, contact time, pH and temperature on adsorption of malachite green by a fixed amount of zeolite have been studied in batch adsorber and fixed bed. The adsorption equilibrium data are successfully fitted to the Freundlich isotherm equation in the temperature range from 25 to $45^{\circ}C$. The estimated values of k and ${\beta}$ are 23.60-46.88, 0.225-0.347, respectively. The mechanism of the adsorption process was determined from the intraparticle diffusion model. The effects of the operation conditions of the fixed bed on the breakthrough curve were investigated. When the inlet concentration and initial flow rate of malachite green are increased, the corresponding adsorption breaktime appears to decrease. Breaktime increased with increasing bed height and length of adsorption zone showed similar patterns.

In this study, the large scale model tests were executed to estimate the Load Sharing Ratio (LSR) of raft in a piled footing under various conditions. The conditions such as the subsoil type, pile length, pile spacing, away type and pile installation method etc. were varied in the pile loading tests about the free-standing group piles and a piled footing. As a result of this study, it was found that there was no difference in the load-settlement curves, resulting from the pile installation method and subsoil type. The piles supported most of the external load until a yielding load of the piled footing, but the raft supported a considerable load after a yielding load. As the relative density of sands increased, the LSR decreased. As the pile spacing was wider and the pile length increased, there was a tendancy for the LSR to increase. But it was also found that the LSR was not affected by the pile installation method and the subsoil type.

The failure load and mode of the unidirectional and fabric hybrid composite laminate joints are studied by test and finite element analysis. Test is conducted for the specimens with nine various geometries under pin loading. Finite element analysis is performed considering the contact and friction effects between the pin and laminate by MSC/NASTRAN. Failure is estimated by Tsai-Wu and Yamada-Sun criteria on the characteristic curve. While the failure of the specimens with the small width and edge length are much affected by the joint geometry, the geometry effects are negligible in the specimens with large width and edge length. Finite element analysis based on the characteristic length method reasonably predicts the failure load and mode of the joints.
