본 연구에서는 직물조직의 분석과정을 자동화할 수 있는 전용 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 직물조직의 분석은 직물 설계 및 품질관리 단계에서 매우 중요한 공정이나 현재까지도 확대경과 분해침에 의존하여 수작업으로 이루어지고 있는 것이 실정이라 자동화가 절실히 요구되는 분야라고 할 수 있다. 최근 컴퓨터 기술의 발달로 섬유산업 분야에서도 자동화 관련 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있으며 직물 분석 과정에 대한 연구도 여러 차례 시도된 바 있다. 여기에는 주로 디지털 영상으로부터 특징을 찾아내고 분석하는 이미지 프로세싱 기법이 쓰였는데 이는 재현성, 정확성, 속도 등에서 육안에 의한 방법과는 비교할 수 없는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 기존의 연구들은 카메라의 한계로 인해 주로 저해상도의 이미지를 가지고 작업을 하거나, 이미지 프로세싱 또는 인공 신경망을 단독으로 적용하는 등의 한계를 가지고 있었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 초고해상도 직물 이미지를 획득한 뒤 이로부터 직물의 교차점을 인식하는데 필요한 파라미터를 추출하고 이를 인공 신경망에 학습시켜 직물 설계에 필요한 조직도를 생성하는 시스템을 개발하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 컴퓨터로 컨트롤이 가능한 직물 분석 전용 초정밀 XY 스테이지의 하드웨어를 설계 제작 하였으며 각종 이미지 분석 및 하드웨어 컨트롤에 필요한 전용 소프트웨어를 개발하였으며 그 결과 각종 직물의 조직을 매우 정확히 인식할 수 있게 되었다. 향후 이미지 획득 과정의 보완, 새로운 파라미터의 정의 및 신경망의 반복 학습을 통해 본 시스템이 보다 보완된다면 직물 분석 작업의 자동화를 통한 제품 개발과 생산에 소요되는 시간을 단축 및 품질 관리 공정의 자동화에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In recent rainy seasons, severe rain storms have caused frequent reinforced retaining wall collapses and slope sliding which have lead to casualties. In this paper, investigating cases of reinforced retaining wall failure, the causes of cracks in reinforced retaining wall and slope sliding have been examined, and a finite element analysis considering the construction phase has been done to analyze the cause and characteristics of slope sliding. As a result, reinforced retaining wall displacement has increased due to heavy rain storms and the increase size has been shown to be large. From these results, it has been analyzed that pile driving can have an effect on the collapse of reinforced retaining walls.

This paper presents the effects of high temperature and water absorption on the mechanical behaviors of carbon-aramid fiber composites, specifically their strength, elastic modulus, and fracture. These composites are used in industrial structures because of their high specific strength and toughness. Carbon fiber composites are vulnerable to the impact force of external objects despite their excellent properties. Aramid fibers have high elongation and impact absorption capabilities. Accordingly, a hybrid composite with the complementary properties and capabilities of carbon and aramid fibers is fabricated. However, the exposure of aramid fiber to water or heat typically deteriorates its mechanical properties. In view of this, tensile and flexural tests were conducted on a twill woven carbon-aramid fiber hybrid composite to investigate the effects of high temperature and water absorption. Moreover, a multiscale analysis of the stress behavior of the composite's microstructure was implemented. The results show that the elastic modulus of composites subjected to high temperature and water absorption treatments decreased by approximately 22% and 34%, respectively, compared with that of the composite under normal conditions. The crack behavior of the composites was well identified under the specimen conditions.

Workplace accidents are common while working at elevations. Thus, various safety measures such as safety handrails and horizontal safety nets are implemented to prevent falls. The minimum safety measure is the lifeline installation. However, because its standards have not been clearly established, it is often misused, resulting in inappropriate knot methods that increase the chance of accidents while working at elevations. Therefore, clarifying the appropriate usage methods or criteria for the various lifelines is required in the field. This study proposed an appropriate installation method by experimentally and numerically evaluating the change in strength according to the fixed knot lifeline method. In addition, three knot methods were specified for each material. The results obtained are expected to contribute to lessening falls through the establishment of lifeline installation standards and the development of appropriate parts.

Edible insects are reported to be rich in protein, minerals and vitamins, and much attention has been paid to them as a future food source. In Korea, they were massively reared and sold. In order to enhance the market value of edible insects for industrialized mass production, it is important to develop the safe and nutritious feed sources for rearing them are needed. In this study, a chlorella-free control feed (Exp1) and six experimental feeds supplemented with 0.5~2.0% liquid or powder types of chlorella were formulated. Protaetia brevitarsis and Allomyrina dichotoma, registered as food ingredients in Korea, were fed with the designed feeds and parameters of growth including larval survivorship, larval body weight, and larval period were analyzed. When chlorella added, larval survivorship was increased 2~13%(p>0.05) and 9~22%(p<0.05) in each beetle compared to the control. Interestingly, the larval period of chlorella powder-added groups was shortened by 24 days (Exp3, p<0.05) in P. brevitarsis and 19 days (Exp4, p<0.01) in A. dichotoma. Meanwhile, some parameters, crude protein, crude fiber, copper, zinc, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorous, in chlorella-added groups of P. brevitarsis were also higher than the control group. Therefore, chlorella could promote the larval growth performance of these two beetles and be used as a feed additive in rearing them.

Smart material is used in various applications such as for glass frame, for medical instruments and for a part of sensors. Smart composite materials ran be applied to a part of aircraft and to the on-line monitoring system for industrial structures, using the shape memory effect. However, it is very difficult to simulate and analyze the shape memory effect in smart composites. In this paper, a two dimensional axisymmetric model was proposed to analyze the smart composite of one fiber and matrix using the finite element method(FEM). The finite element analysis was carried out in two renditions of the room temperature(293K) and a higher temperature (363K). The results we.e compared with the experimental results to confirm the validity of the analysis. In addition, the acoustic emission(AE) technique was used to study the microscopic damage behavior and the effect of pre-strains on TiNi/A16061 shape memory alloy composite.

Since the environmental problems and new stricter regulations are forcing the industries to introduce more ecological materials for their products, biodegradable materials have attracted increasing attention. Among these materials, Polylactic acid(PLA) is a promising candidate for its modulus, strength, chemical resistance. However, PLA could not be used for automobile industries for its low heat resistance and impact strength. In this study natural fibers were (jute fiber was) introduced as reinforcements in order to improve heat resistance and impact strength of PLA. Especially for improving the adhesion between PLA and jute, various surface treatments were tried. With each treatment, we verified that the impact strength of composite was improved. With annealing treatment, we found a remarkable increase of heat resistance of PLA composite.

Sound absorption capability and bending strength of laminated ship-building plywood waste of maple and melanti wood were estimated. Sound absorption coefficients of wood had been measured by the two microphone transfer function method and bending strength examined by three point loading. The maximum strength in bending of laminated ship-building plywood waste of maple and melanti wood were 534 and 414 kgf/$cm^2$, respectively. The sound absorption coefficients of laminated ship-building plywood waste were higher than mongolian oak and fiber board, well used construction material. Especially, in the case of laminated ship-building plywood waste of melanti wood, average sound absorption coefficient was about 0.25. It was surmised that the laminated ship-building plywood waste can be used as interior materials because of its good mechanical and sound absorption properties.

Laminate composites, especially Carbon fiber-reinforced composites are wide used in various industry such as aerospace and automotive industry due to their high specific strength and specific stiffness. However, the laminate composites has a big disadvantage that delamination occurs because the arrangement of the fibers is all arranged in the in-plane direction, which limits the field of application of the laminate composites. In this study, we first developed a laminate composites T-beam in which π-beam and flat plate were combined and optimized the design parameters through structural analysis and mechanical tests. Afterwards, 3D weave preform T-beam was developed by applying the same design parameters of laminate composites T-beams, and improved mechanical strength was achieved compared to laminated structures. These findings are expected to be applicable to existing laminated composite structures that require increased strength.

Hemp is known as one of the most productive and useful plants, which grows quickly in a moderate climate with only moderate water and fertilizer. Traditionally in Korea, hemp bast is used to natural fibres, and remaining such as stem and root is treated as waste. Those of hemp by-products can be transformed to bio fuel such as bio-oil and activated carbon. To understand pyrolysis characteristics, thermogravimetric analysis were carried out in TGA, in which hemp by-products were mostly decomposed at the temperature range of $270{\sim}370^{\circ}C$. The corresponding kinetic parameters including activation energy and pre-exponential factor were determined by differential method over the degree of conversions. The values of activation energies for pyrolysis were increased as the conversion increased from 10 to 90%.
