선박이나 산업 플랜트에서 파이프 또는 탱크류의 맞대기 용접 시 안정적인 이면비드의 형성은 매우 중요하다. 대부분의 현장에서 파이프 맞대기 초층용접부의 안정적인 이면비드를 형성하기 위해 3mm의 루트갭을 띄우고 루트면이 없는 V-그루브에서 필러를 사용하는 수동 TIG용접을 주로 사용하고 있다. 수동 TIG용접은 고품질의 비드와 우수한 아크안정성, 그리고 용접인자의 제어가 쉽다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 수동 TIG용접은 용접속도가 10cpm정도로 느리기 때문에 GMAW에 비해 생산성이 낮고 작업자의 숙련도에 따라 품질이 변하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 높은 생산성과 기준갭 1.5mm에서 단차의 허용공차를 크게 하기 위해 루트면 3mm를 가지는 U-그루브의 설계를 하였으며, 두꺼운 루트면을 가지는 그루브에서 안정적인 이면비드를 형성시키기 위해 GMAW에서 아크 충격량에 대한 검토를 실시하였다. GMAW의 아크력이 용입에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 검토하기 위해 수냉되는 동판에 갭을 1.5mm 띄우고 동일한 용착량과 입열량에서 아크력만을 변화시켜 실험하였다. 또한, U-그루브의 루트부를 모델링하여 두께3t의 평판시편을 각각의 갭과 단차 조건에서 실험하였다. 이 때, 기준갭 1.5mm에서 갭에 의해 생기는 단면적을 기준 갭단면적, 갭이 증가함에 따라 증가되는 단면적을 추가 갭단면적, 갭이 감소함에 따라 감소하는 단면적을 감소 갭단면적으로 정의하였다. 용접 중 발생하는 추가, 감소 갭단면적에 대하여 용착량을 50%의 수준으로 증가, 감소 시켰다. 갭에 따라 아크력을 변경하여 실험을 실시하였고 이면비드의 형상을 확인 하였다. 마지막으로 평판 시편의 조건에서 안정적으로 이면비드가 형성된 조건을 pipe U-그루브에 적용하였다. 그 결과 동판에서 용착량과 입열량이 같음에도 불구하고 아크력이 증가함에 따라 용입이 깊어짐을 확인하였다. 또한. 3t 평판시편에서 아크력의 제어를 통해 큰 단차와 갭이 있을 때, 안정적인 이면비드를 얻을 수 있는 조건을 확립하였다. 마지막으로 pipe U-그루브에서 앞선 실험의 용접조건으로 갭과 단차의 변화에 대해 실험을 하였으나, 시험편의 두께차이에 의한 전도 열손실로 인해 이면비드의 형성이 어려웠고, 아크 충격량의 증가를 통해 이러한 문제를 해결하였다.

With the aim of using a filler material in a conductive paste, fine Cu nanoparticles were synthesized through the high-speed chemical reaction between cuprous oxide ($Cu_2O$) powder and sulfuric acid in distilled water. Under external temperature of $7^{\circ}C$, sulfuric acid concentration of 48%, and $Cu_2O$ amount of 30 g, the $Cu_2O$ particles were eliminated and slightly aggregated Cu nanoparticles were synthesized. Futhermore, Cu nanoparticles of 224 nm, in which the aggregation between particles was obviousiy much suppressed, were synthesized with the choice of an additive. In the particle sample, occasionally there are coarse particles formed by the aggregation of fine nanoparticles and weak linkages between the nanoparticles. However, the coarse particles were destroyed and the linkages were broken after mixing with a resin formulation, indicating the behavior of untangling the aggregation between nanoparticles.

Recently, as the demand for high-performance computers and mobile products increases, semiconductor packages are becoming high-integration and high-density. Therefore, in order to transmit a large amount of data at once, micro bumps such as flip-chip and Cu pillar that can reduce bump size and pitch and increase I/O density are used. However, when the size of the bumps is smaller than 70 ㎛, the brittleness increases and electrical properties decrease due to the rapid increase of the IMC volume fraction in the solder joint, which deteriorates the reliability of the solder joint. Therefore, in order to improve these issues, a layer that serves to prevent diffusion is inserted between the UBM (Under Bump Metallization) or pillar and the solder cap. In this review paper, various studies to improve bonding properties by suppressing excessive IMC growth of micro-bumps through additional layer insertion were compared and analyzed.

We studied a bonding at low temperature using polymer bump and Non-Conductive Adhesive (NCA), and studied the reliability of the polymer bump/Al pad joints. The polymer bumps were formed on oxidized Si substrates by photolithography process, and the thin film metals were formed on the polymer bumps using DC magnetron sputtering. The substrate used was AL metallized glass. The polymer bump and Al metallized glass substrates were joined together at $80^{\circ}C$ under various pressure. Two NCAs were applied during joining. Thermal cycling test ($0^{\circ}C-55^{\circ}C$, cycle/30 min) was carried out up to 2000 cycles to evaluate the reliability of the joints. The bondability was evaluated by measuring the contact resistance of the joints through the four point probe method, and the joints were observed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The contact resistance of the joints was $70-90m{\Omega}$ before the reliability test. The joints of the polymer bump/Al pad were damaged by NCA filler particles under pressure above 200 MPa. After reliability test, some joints were electrically failed since thinner metal layers deposited at the edge of bumps were disconnected.

In this paper, we present the hull blasting machine with vision-based weld bead recognition device for cleaning shipment exterior wall. The purpose of this study is to introduce the mechanism design of the high efficiency hull blasting machine using the vision system to recognize the weld bead. Therefore, we have developed a robot mechanism and drive controller system of the hull blasting robot. And hull blasting characteristics such as the climbing mechanism, vision system, remote controller and CAN have been discussed and compared with the experimental data. The hull blasting robots are able to remove rust or paint at anchor, so the re-docking is unnecessary. Therefore, this can save time and cost of undergoing re-docking process and build more vessels instead. The robot uses sensors to navigate safely around the hull and has a filter system to collect the fouling removed. We have completed a pilot test of the robot and demonstrated the drive control and CAN communication performance.

In this study, scaled model tests were performed to investigate the stability of three parallel tunnels. Seven types of test models which had respectively different pillar widths, tunnel sectional shapes, support conditions and ground conditions were experimented, where crack initiating pressures and deformation behaviors around tunnels were investigated. In order to evaluate the effect of pillar widths on stability, various models were experimented. As results, the models with shallower pillar widths proved to be unstable because of lower crack initiating pressures and more tunnel convergences than the models with thicker pillar widths. In order to find the effect of tunnel sectional shape on stability, the models with arched, semi-arched and rectangular tunnels were experimented. Among them rectangular tunnel model was the most unstable, where the arched tunnel model with small radius of roof curvature was more stable than semi-arched one. The model with rockbolt showed higher crack initiating pressure and less roof lowering than the unsupported model. The deformation behaviors of tunnels in the anisotropic ground model were quite different from those in the isotropic ground model. Futhermore, the results of FLAC analysis were qualitatively coincident with the experimental results.

As a filler metal for lowering the melting point of Ag, many alloy metal candidates have emerged, such as cadmium, with zinc, manganese, nickel, and titanium as active metals. However, since cadmium is known to be harmful to the human body, Cd-free filler metals are now mainly used. Still, no study has been conducted comparing the characteristics of joints prepared with and without cadmium. In addition, studies have yet to be conducted comparing the typical characteristics of brazing filler metals with special structures, and the joint characteristics of brazing filler metals with available frames. In this study, the characteristics of junctions of silver-based intercalation metals were compared based on the type of filler metal additives, using a special structure, a filler metal sandwich structure, to protect the internal base metal. The general filler metal was compared using the structure, and the thickness of the filler metal according to the thickness was reached. A comparison of the characteristics of the junction was conducted to identify the characteristics of an intersection of silver-based brazing filler metal and the effect on joint strength. Each filler metal's collective tensile strength was measured, and the relationship between joint characteristics and tensile joint strength was explored. The junction was estimated through micro strength measurement, contact angle measurement with the base metal when the filler metal was melted, XRD image observation, composition analysis for each phase through SEM-EDS, and microstructure phase acquisition.

자동차는 코너 주행 시 In-corner와 Out-corner 의 바퀴 궤적이 달라지므로, 특별한 장치가 없이 좌우 구동 측의 바퀴가 같은 속도로 회전을 하게 되면 정상적인 주행이 불가능하다. 따라서 정상적인 코너 주행이 가능 하려면, 코너 안쪽 바퀴보다 바깥쪽 바퀴가 더 빨리 회전해야 하며 이러한 회전 차를 보상받지 못할 경우 바깥쪽 바퀴가 끌리는 현상이 발생하는데 이를 방지하기 위해 디퍼렌셜 기어가 필요하다. 현재 디퍼렌셜 기어는 디퍼렌셜 케이스와 링기어를 볼트로 체결하는 조립 공법을 통해 생산되고 있다. 하지만 볼트 체결 공법은 조립을 위한 볼트와 볼트 체결을 위한 플랜지와 볼팅을 위한 홀을 가공하는 공정이 필요하기 때문에 재료비 절감 및 생산 효율 향상에 매우 불리하고 볼트체결을 위한 부분 때문에 불필요한 무게가 증가하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 기계적 체결 방식을 레이저 용접 방식으로 대체하여 재료비를 절감하고 무게 저감을 통해 주행성능을 향상시키고자 하였다. 링기어의 소재는 침탄처리강(SCM420H)이며 디퍼렌셜 케이스의 소재는 주철(GCD500)을 사용하고 있다. 주철은 용접시 용접부와 열영향부에서 마르텐사이트 조직과 레데브라이트, 시멘타이트 조직이 생성되며 고탄소 모재의 탄소 확산으로 인한 부분 혼합영역에서 탄소 합금이 생성되어 균열이 발생하는 등 용접성이 매우 좋지 않은 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 주철의 난용접성을 해결하는 방법으로는 고탄소 모재 용접시 발생하는 탄소의 확산을 억제하거나 예열이나 후열 처리를 통한 냉각 속도의 제어하는 방법과 오스테나이트 안정화 원소를 첨가한 필러와이어를 사용하여 용접시 마르텐사이트와 시멘타이트의 성장을 방해하는 방법 등이 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 예열처리나 후열처리를 통한 주철의 용접법은 대량 생산을 통한 원가절감을 노리는 자동차 업계의 특성에 비추어 볼 때 비용이나 프로세스 구성 면에서 적용하는 것이 어려울 것이라 판단하여 Ni-base filler metal을 통한 주철의 용접법을 선택하였고 그 결과 실차에 적용하기 위한 비틀림 강성 테스트나 내구 테스트는 통과하였으나 NVH 테스트 결과 볼팅 체결 방식에 비하여 소음이 커지는 문제가 발생하고 링기어의 HAZ부가 고경화 되는 문제가 발생하였다. 때문에 용입깊이를 초기 시제품인 5mm에서 4mm로 변경시켜 입열량 감소 및 용접변형을 줄여 소음 문제를 해결하고자 하였으며 링기어의 침탄층을 1mm 절삭하여 링기어 HAZ부의 고경화 문제를 해결하고자 하였다. 이러한 용접 구조 변경이 용접변형 및 강성과 피로에 미치는 영향력을 알아보고자 용접 및 열처리 상용 소프트웨어인 SYSWELD, 구조해석 상용소프트웨어인 NX_NASTRAN, 피로 해석 상용 소프트웨어인 FEMFAT을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였고 실제 구조 변경한 용접 시제품과 비교, 분석하였다.

In the automobile industry, there is growing demand for lightweight vehicles due to environmental problems and rising oil prices. Therefore, aluminum alloys and special materials are being used to reduce the weight of vehicles, but there are still many difficulties to overcome in terms of cost and strength. Therefore, the application of advanced high strength steel (AHSS)is increasing. AHSS has good strength and formability.Safety regulations are becoming stricter, and 1.2-GPa super-high-strength steels are gradually being applied for the center pillar and roof rails. Thus, the application of different kinds of steels in automobile bodiesis also increasing gradually. This study evaluates the resistance point weldability and the characteristics of a welded part of SGAFC1180 1.2t steel. A simulation was used to observe the nugget formation and its growth behavior. The prediction performance showed a similar tendency within an error rate of 10%. Also, the effect of this behavior on the process resistance and dynamic resistance was investigated,along with the correlation between the shear tensile strength and nugget diameter.
