Shipbuilding process is composed of hull construction, in which the structural body of a ship is formed, and outfitting, in which all the non-structural parts such as pipes, derricks, engines, machinery, electrical cable, etc. are manufactured, added and assembled. Hull construction can be classified into parts fabrication, block assembly and hull erection. Among them, the parts fabrication is the first manufacturing stage that produces components or zones needed for block assembly and hull construction. More specifically, the parts fabrication is performed through machining processes including marking, cutting, pressing, and/or forming. When material is entering into the parts fabrication stage, it is important for achieving the total efficiency of production to select one of production division, so-called 'bay,' as well as machine tools on which the part is fabricated. In this paper, given production quantities of parts in the fabrication stage, the problem is to optimally select machine tools and production division, such that the total flow-time is minimized as well as the workload among machines is balanced. Specifically, three mathematical models for flow-time minimization, load balance, and simultaneously considering both objectives, and a numerical example are analyzed and presented.

Lincomycin, an inhibitor of plastid protein synthesis, was found to block the synthesis of apoprotein P700 with a molecular mass of 72 kDa and the assembly of the Chl a-protein of PS I. Synthesis of the polypeptides of 48, 43.5, and 32 kDa of the PS II complex is also suppressed. This process is accompanied by the disappearance of the PS Two reaction center Chl a at 683 nm, and of the PS One reaction center Chl a at 690, 696, and 705 nm on the fourth derivative of the absorption spectra at 77K. Lincomycin does not affect the synthesis of LHC subunits. It increases the content of the two main Chl forms of LHC at 648 nm (Chl b) and 676 nm (Chl a). The low-temperature fluorescence ratio F736/F685 is also increased. However, the effect of cycloheximide (an inhibitor of cytoplasmic protein synthesis) leads to the reduction of polypeptides of the light-harvesting Chl a/b-protein complex in the range of 29.5-22 kDa. Under these conditions, the relative amount of Chl b and the F736/ F685 fluorescence ratio decrease significantly. This is obviously the result of blocking the LHC I and LHC II synthesis. At the same time rifampicin and actinomycin D (inhibitors which block transcription in chloroplast and nuclear genome, respectively) inessentially affect the characteristics of these complexes.

In this paper, we propose a new 3-D working point determination method for industrial robot using vision camera system and block interpolation technique with feature points in a vehicle body. To detect the feature points in a vehicle body, we applied the pattern matching method. For determination of working point, we applied block interpolation method. The block consists of 3-D type blocks with detected feature points per section. 3-D position is selected by Euclidean distance between 245 feature values and an acquired feature point. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, experiments are performed in glass equipment process in real industrial vehicle assembly line.

We investigated a simultaneous living anionic polymerization process of isoprene (I) and 4styrene-d_8$ (S) in $benzene-d_6$ as a solvent with sec-buthyllithium as an initiator into polyisoprene(PI)-block-poly($styrene-d_8$)(PS) and the polymerization-induced molecular self-assembling process. This process was observed in-situ by time-resolved small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiment. The SANS profiles measured exhibited three time regions, where (i) the selective growth of PI chains occurs; (ii) the living chain ends switch from isoprenyllithium to styryllithium, and (iii) the SANS exhibited the polymerization induced disorder-to-order transition and order-to-order transition.

To achieve high productivity of assembly hull blocks, it is important to predict welding deformations accurately and to apply these data to the production planning. In the deformation analysis of hull block, simplified methods (elastic analysis) such as inherent method, equivalent loading method and local & global approach are usually used instead of thermal-elastic-plastic analysis because of calculating time and cost. To be much more practical, these simplified methods should consider gravity effect of plate and contact condition between the plate and the positioning jig. In this research, using finite element method, practical predicting method for the welding deformation of the curved hull blocks with considering welding sequence, gravity effect and contact condition is proposed.

Cooling characteristics of a parallel channel with protruding heat sources using convection and conduction heat transfer are studied numerically. A two-dimensional model has been developed for numerical prediction of transient, compressible, viscous, laminar flow, and conjugate heat transfer between parallel plates with uniform block heat sources. The finite volume method is used to solve the problem. The assembly consists of two channels formed by two covers and one printed circuit board which has three uniform heat source blocks. Six different cooling methods are considered to find out the most efficient cooling method in a given geometry and heat sources. The velocity and temperature fields of cooling medium, the temperature distribution along the block surface, and the maximum temperature in each block are obtained. The results are compared to examine the cooling characteristics of the different cooling methods.

Block copolymer micelles are generally formed via the self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers in an aqueous medium. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks form shell and core micelles, respectively. The block copolymers of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG)-b-poly(2-diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate (PDPA) were synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization, with the macro initiator synthesized by the coupling of 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide with MPEG in the presence of a triethyl amine base catalyst. The atom transfer radical polymerization of 2-diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate was performed in conjunction with an N,N,N',N",N"-pentamethyl-diethylenetriamine/copper bromide catalyst system, in DMF, at $70^{\circ}C$. The pH induced micellization/demicellization was studied using fluorescence, with a pyrene probe. Furthermore, the pH dependent micellization was confirmed using the microviscosity method, with a dipyme fluorescence probe. The pH dependant micelle size distribution was studied using dynamic light scattering. The characterization of the synthesized polymers was established using gel permeation chromatography and from the $^1H-nuclear$ magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Plasmonics, sensor, field effect transistors, solar cells 등 다양한 적용분야를 가지는 실리콘 구조체는 제작공정에 의해 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 달라지기 때문에 적합한 나노구조 제작방법이 요구되고 있다. 나노구조체 제작방법으로는 Photo lithography, Extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV), Nano imprinting lithography (NIL), Block copolymer (BCP) 방식의 방법들이 연구되고 있으며, 특히 BCP는 direct self-assembly 특성을 가지고 있으며 가격적인 면에서도 큰 장점을 가진다. 하지만 BCP를 mask로 사용하여 식각공정을 진행할 경우 BCP가 버티지 못하고 변형되어 mask로서의 역할을 하지 못한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 BCP와 질화막을 이용한 double mask 방법을 사용하였다. 기판 위에 BCP를 self-assembly 시키고 mask로 사용하여 hole 부분으로 노출된 기판을 Ion gun을 통해 질화 시킨 후에 BCP를 제거한다. 기판 위에 hole 모양의 질화막 표면은 BCP와 다르게 etching 공정 중 변형되지 않는다. 이러한 질화막 표면을 mask로 사용하여 pillar pattern의 실리콘 나노구조체를 제작하였다. 질화막 mask로 사용되는 template은 PS와 PMMA로 구성된 BCP를 사용하였다. 140kg/mol의 polystyrene과 65kg/mol의 PMMA를 톨루엔으로 용해시키고 실리콘 표면 위에 spin coating으로 도포하였다. Spin coat 후 230도에서 40시간 동안 열처리를 진행하여 40nm의 직경을 가진 PS-b-PMMA self-assembled hole morphology를 형성하였다. 질화막 형성 및 etching을 위한 장비로 low-energy Ion beam system을 사용하였다. Reactive Ion beam은 ICP와 3-grid system으로 구성된 Ion gun으로부터 형성된다. Ion gun에 13.56 MHz의 frequency를 갖는 200W 전력을 인가하였다. Plasma로부터 나오는 Ion은 $2{\Phi}$의 직경의 hole을 가지는 3-grid hole로 추출된다. 10~70 voltage 범위의 전위를 plasma source 바로 아래의 1st gird에 인가하고, 플럭스 조절을 위해 -150V의 전위를 2nd grid에 인가한다. 그리고 3rd grid는 접지를 시켰다. chamber내의 질화 및 식각가스 공급은 2mTorr로 유지시켰다. 그리고 기판의 온도는 냉각칠러를 이용하여 -20도로 냉각을 진행하였다. 이와 같은 공정 결과로 100 nm 이상의 높이를 갖는 40 nm직경의 균일한 Silicon pillar pattern을 형성 할 수 있었다.

H-shaped amphiphilic pentablock copolymers $(PSt)_2-b-PCL-b-PEO-b-PCL-b-(PSt)_2$ was synthesized via chemoenzymatic method by combining enzyme-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization (eROP) of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone (${\varepsilon}$-CL) and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene. By this process, we obtained copolymers with controlled molecular weight and low polydispersity. The structure and composition of the obtained copolymers were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and infrared spectroscopy analysis (IR). The crystallization behavior of the copolymers was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The crystallization behavior of the H-shaped block copolymers demonstrated a PCL dominate crystallization. The self-assembly behavior of the copolymers was investigated in aqueous media. The hydrodynamic diameters of the copolymer micelles in aqueous solution were measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The morphology of the copolymer micelles was observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The hydrodynamic diameters of spherical micelles declined gradually with the increase of the hydrophobic chain lengths of the copolymers. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values were determined from fluorescence emission, and it was found that the CMCs decreased with an increase of PSt hydrophobic block lengths.
