Virtual Manufacturing is a powerful methodology for developing a new product, new equipment and new production system. It enables the checking errors in design before production. This paper is a case study of virtual manufacturing in an excavator factory. The final welding operations of the boom and the rotating table of upper body are selected for application. 3D models of parts and fixtures are developed with $CATIA^{(R)}$ and 3D simulation models are developed with $IGRIP^{(R)}$. These models are used for verifying the design of fixture and for the motion design of robot. As a result, the manual welding systems are replaced by automatic systems and many design errors are corrected in the design phase, which reduces the developing cost and time.

In this paper, a fabrication process for PZT preform of 1-3 type piezo-composite were studied using powder injection molding (PIM). The viscosity and the Pressure-Volume-Temperature (PVT) characteristics of the fabricated PZT feedstock were analyzed. The filling patterns, pressure, temperature distributions, and forming defects of the preform were analyzed with 3D TIMON commercial packages during PIM process. Also the fabrication conditions and the delivery system of the preform were optimized during the entire PIM process. Based on the simulated results, the preform having uniform distributions of the PZT rod was fabricated with the PIM process.

This study describes the design and implementation of Antenna for Digital Satellite Communication. The Antenna unit for SHF band consists of Reflector, Septom Polarizer, Feed Horn and Support Frame etc. Thought analysis of space environment before production, the possibility of the malfunction of equipment minimized and we designed a reliable Antenna through simulation for vibration and thermal analysis generated during the launch, and compared pre-simulation of main performance results to test results about main performances of Antenna after production. After fabricating the antenna, the maximum gain of the antenna main beam is 36.5dBi, which satisfies the requirement of 35dBi or more, and it also satisfies the requirement of -20dB for return loss of less than -24dB. Also, the isolation of the transmission and reception of the antenna is -22.6dB or less, which satisfies the requirement of -20dB or less. The antenna for digital satellite communication described in this paper can be used in the satellite field of geostationary earth orbit and low earth orbit requiring high reliability in the future.

The cell loss probability required in the ATM network is in the range of 10$^{-9}$ ∼10$^{-12}$ . If Monte Carlo simulation is used to analyze the performance of the ATM node, an enormous amount of computer time is required. To obtain large speed-up factors, importance sampling may be used. Since the Markov-modulated processes have been used to model various high-speed network traffic sources, we consider discrete time single server queueing systems with Markov-modulated arrival processes which can be used to model an ATM node. We apply importance sampling based on the Large Deviation Theory for the performance evaluation of, MMBP/D/1/K, ∑MMBP/D/1/K, and two stage tandem queueing networks with Markov-modulated arrival processes and deterministic service times. The simulation results show that the buffer overflow probabilities obtained by the importance sampling are very close to those obtained by the Monte Carlo simulation and the computer time can be reduced drastically.

This paper presents a CMOS TIQ flash A/D converter which operates very fast compared to other types of A/D converters due to its parallel architecture. The output resolution of designed A/D converter is 6-bit. In order to reduce the power consumption and chip area of conventional flash A/D converter, TIQ based flash A/D converter is proposed, which uses the advantage of the structure of CMOS transistors. The length and width of transistors of TIQ were determined with HSPICE simulation. To speed up the ultra-high speed flash A/D converter, the Fat Tree Encoder technique is used. The TIQ A/D converter was designed with full custom method. The chip's maximum power consumption was 38.45mW at 1.8V, and the operating speed of simulation was 2.7 GSPS.

There are always much concern about the leakage of radiation materials in the event of dismantle or unexpected accident of nuclear power plant. In order to remove the leakage of radiation materials, appropriate dispersion detection techniques for radiation materials are necessary. However, because direct handling of radiation materials is highly restricted and risky, developing radiation-related techniques needs computer simulation in advance to evaluate the feasibility. In this paper, we propose a radiation imaging technique which can acquire 3D dispersion information of radiation materials and tested by simulation. Using two virtual 1D radiation sensors, we obtain stereo radiation images and acquire the 3D depth to virtual radiation materials using stereo disparity. For point and plane type virtual radiation materials, the possibility of the acquisition of stereo radiation image and 3D information are simulated.

In this study, CFD simulation was performed with commercial CFD code FLUENT for the 3D mixing tank model (1 m in a diameter and 2.5 m in a height) of DME-Propane liquified fuels. Initial condition set-up with existence of DME 146 l at the upper side of mixing tank and Propane 770 l at the lower side of mixing tank. Characteristics of mixture and fluid flow were observed for 34 hours simulation. Two liquid fuel were uniformly mixed within range of 3 mol% after 24 hours, and range of 1 mol% after 34 hours. The simulation result following 4 hours was verified with KOGAS experimental data.

결정질 실리콘 웨이퍼를 이용한 고효율 태양전지를 제작하기 위해서는 반드시 고려해야 할 주요 인자들이 있다. 그 중에서도 Base resistivity, Thickness, Doping concentration, Texture size, Texture angle등의 주요 인자를 PC1D 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 이용하여 최적화 해 보았다. 그 결과, Base resistivity값은 낮을수록 좋으나 지나치게 낮을 경우 재결합으로 인해 효율이 떨어지기 때문에 Base resistivity = $1{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$에서 최대 효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, Thickness는 두꺼울수록 R=${\rho}$(L/A)의 식에 의해 직렬저항이 증가하여 효율이 감소하므로 Thickness = $200{\mu}m$ 정도가 적정 값임을 확인할 수 있었다. Doping concentration의 경우 높을수록 재결합으로 인해 효율이 떨어지며 Doping concentration = $3.69{\times}10^{-20}cm^{-3}$에서 가장 좋은 효율을 보였다. Textrure size와 Textrure angle은 그 값이 클수록 빛의 흡수 정도가 증가해 효율이 증가함을 볼 수 있었고 Textrure size = $2{\sim}4{\mu}m$, Texture angle = $79^{\circ}$에서 높은 효율을 보여주었다. 이와 같은 조건에서 고효율 태양전지를 제작을 위한 시뮬레이션을 한 결과, 16.23%의 변환효율을 얻을 수 있었다.

The object of this experimental and simulation study is to find out heated temperature and range from the Oxy-acetylene cutting point of reinforcing bars (D10, D13, D16, D19, D22, D25 for each cases of SD3O and SD40) in room temperature ($20{\sim}22^{\circ}C$). This cutting is under the condition that a skilled worker cut one bar per a time. The results are these. 1. The temperature of the point 1 of reinforcing bars cut with Oxy-acetylene cutter is over 700$^{\circ}C$ under 1000$^{\circ}C$, but the temperature of the point 2 of reinforcing bars cut with Oxy-acetylene cutter is under 200$^{\circ}C$ 2. The temperature of the point that is apart 2cm from Oxy-acetylene cutting point is not over 200$^{\circ}C$, so reinforcing bars has not transform to be brittle. The results of simulation for temperatures of the each point apart from Oxy-acetylene cutting point is similar to upper experimental results.
