The single sourcing policy, in which an automobile manufacturer purchases identical or similar parts from one supplier, has an advantage of scale economy. Meanwhile, multiple sourcing policy, which allows procuring similar parts from multiple suppliers, has benefits of dispersing risks and promoting competition among suppliers. This paper analyzes the procurement policies by presenting a model of the Japanese automobile parts trade. It concludes that maturity of technology involved should be taken into account besides above-mentioned factors which have traditionally been recognized. For parts produced using evolving technologies, the single sourcing enhances purchaser’s benefits because of the scale economy in learning process. In the meantime, multiple sourcing is more beneficial to the purchaser if the parts are based on mature technologies. In either policy, if the technology involved is evolving, motivating suppliers by returning a great part of cost reduction as a reward to them may eventually increase profit for the purchaser. The conclusion supports the situation where the number of suppliers is being cut down as the trend of modularization and system deliveries of parts progresses in the auto parts industry, and suggests that returning part of benefits to parts suppliers may be encouraged from the viewpoint of auto manufacturers’ own interest.

Large area YBCO - films are series produced by thermal co-evaporation using a deposition scheme known as Garching process, which allows intermittent oxygen supply in a high vacuum ambient by an oxygen cup spaced closely underneath the moving substrates. The deposition area of 9" diameter is capable to handle very large wafers up to 8" diam. or numerous smaller wafers. The large distance between substrates and boat sources and an elaborate heater design guarantee excellent film uniformity over the entire deposition area. YBCO - films deposited by this technique are commercially fabricated for a variety of applications - the most prominent are resistive fault current limiters and microwave filters for mobile or satellite communications. IMUX and OMUX - filters are currently space qualined by Robert Bosch GmbH and are expected to be launched and installed on an experimental platform of the international space station ALPHA in 2001. Both of the above applications require quite different film specifications on the one hand, but at the same time extremely high uniformity and reproducibility on the other hand, since hundreds of YBCO - films are combined to large systems or have to be approved for manned space missions. The success of such projects is direct evidence that the technique of thermal evaporation is readily capable to meet these high demands and has become the major deposition technique to support the emerging HTS market.

암모니아 생산은 이전부터 비료, 식량과 관련되어 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔는데, 최근 신재생 에너지에 대한 관심이 커짐에 따라 암모니아 또한 에너지로서 내연기관이나 연료전지로 활용이 기대되어 더 많은 연구가 활발히 이루어 지고 있다. 하지만 암모니아를 생성하기 위해서 하버-보쉬법을 사용하는데, 150-300기압과 $350-550^{\circ}C$ 이상의 높은 압력과 온도가 필요하므로 지구 에너지의 1-2%를 사용할 만큼 암모니아 생산에 많은 에너지가 소모되며, 주로 화석연료가 사용된다. 위와 같은 반응에 사용되는 에너지를 줄임으로 이산화탄소 배출량을 줄여 환경문제에도 대응할 수 있기 때문에 반응온도 및 압력을 줄이는 노력이 필요하다. 본 총설에서는 암모니아를 생산하기 위한 방법 중 특히 상온, 상압에서의 전기화학적 질소환원반응 결과들을 소개한다. 실험 결과뿐만 아니라 밀도범함수 계산을 통하여 전기화학적 질소환원반응 메커니즘 연구가 많이 되었으며, 더 많이 전기화학반응에 참여할 수 있도록 하는, 나노 와이어, 다공성 전극과 같은 나노구조화 전극설계에 대한 다양한 연구 결과들 또한 제시한다.

The yield criterion, or called yield function, plays an important role in the study of plastic working of a sheet because it governs the plastic deformation properties of the sheet during plastic forming process. In this paper, we propose a modified version of previous anisotropic yield function (Trans. Mater. Process., 31(4) 2022, pp. 214-228) based on J2 and J3 stress invariants. The proposed anisotropic yield model has the 6th-order of stress components. The modified version of the anisotropic yield function in this study is as follows. f(J₂⁰,J₃⁰) ≡ (J₂⁰)³ + α(J₃⁰)² + β(J₂⁰)^3/2 × (J₃⁰) = k⁶ The proposed anisotropic yield function well explains the anisotropic plastic behavior of various sheets such as aluminum, high strength steel, magnesium alloy sheets etc. by introducing the parameters α and β, and also exhibits both symmetrical and asymmetrical yield surfaces. The parameters included in the proposed model are determined through an optimization algorithm from uniaxial and biaxial experimental data under proportional loading path. In this study, the validity of the proposed anisotropic yield function was verified by comparing the yield surface shape, normalized uniaxial yield stress value, and Lankford's anisotropic coefficient R-value derived with the experimental results. Application for the proposed anisotropic yield function to AA6016-T4 aluminum and DP980 sheets shows symmetrical yielding behavior and to AZ31B magnesium shows asymmetric yielding behavior, it was shown that the yield locus and yielding behavior of various types of sheet materials can be predicted reasonably by using the proposed anisotropic yield function.

The yield criterion, or called yield function, plays an important role in the study of plastic working of a sheet because it governs the plastic deformation properties of the sheet during plastic forming process. In this paper, we propose a novel anisotropic yield function useful for describing the plastic behavior of various anisotropic sheets. The proposed yield function includes the anisotropic version of the second stress invariant J₂ and the third stress invariant J₃. The anisotropic yield function newly proposed in this study is as follows. F(J₂)+ αG(J₃)+ βH (J₂ × J₃) = k^m The proposed yield function well explains the anisotropic plastic behavior of various sheets by introducing the parameters α and β, and also exhibits both symmetrical and asymmetrical yield surfaces. The parameters included in the proposed model are determined through an optimization algorithm from uniaxial and biaxial experimental data under proportional loading path. In this study, the validity of the proposed anisotropic yield function was verified by comparing the yield surface shape, normalized uniaxial yield stress value, and Lankford's anisotropic coefficient R-value derived with the experimental results. Application for the proposed anisotropic yield function to aluminum sheet shows symmetrical yielding behavior and to pure titanium sheet shows asymmetric yielding behavior, it was shown that the yield curve and yield behavior of various types of sheet materials can be predicted reasonably by using the proposed new yield anisotropic function.

촉매를 사용한 전기화학적 암모니아 생산은 주변 온도 및 압력 조건, 환경 친화적인 작동 및 고순도 암모니아 생산을 가능하게 함으로써 전통적인 하버-보쉬 방법을 대체할 대안으로서 가능성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 제1원리 계산을 사용하여 루테늄 촉매의 표면에서 발생하는 질소 환원 반응에 초점을 맞춘다. 루테늄의 (0001) 및 (1000) 표면에서 질소 환원에 대한 반응 경로를 모델링하여 반응 구조를 최적화하고 각 단계에 대한 유리한 경로를 예측했다. 각 표면에서의 N₂의 흡착 구성은 후속 반응 활동에 상당한 영향을 미쳤으며, 깁스자유에너지 분석은 가장 유리한 질소 환원 구성을 도출하였다. 루테늄의 (0001) 표면에서는 질소 분자가 표면에 수직으로 흡착하는 end-on 형태가 가장 유리한 N₂ 흡착에너지가 나타났으며 유사하게, (1000) 표면에서도 end-on 형태가 안정적인 흡착 에너지 값을 보였다. 이어서, distal 및 alternating 구성 모두에서 최적화된 수소 흡착을 통해 NH₃의 최종 탈착까지 이론적으로 완전한 반응 경로를 설명했다.
