A three-dimensional numerical analysis of the flow and heat transfer characteristic of wood-flour-filled polypropylene melt in an extrusion die was carried out. Used for this analysis were Finite Concept Method based on FVM, unstructured grid and non-Newtonian fluid viscosity model. Temperature and flow fields are closely coupled through temperature dependent viscosity and viscous dissipation. With large Peclet, Nahme, Brinkman numbers, viscous heating caused high temperature belt near die housing. Changing taper plate thickness and examining some predefined parameters at die exit investigated the effect of taper plate on velocity and temperature uniformities. In the presence of taper plate, uniformity at die exit could be improved and there existed an optimum thickness to maximize it.

Purpose: As the number of people directly employed in making things declines, the cost of labour as a proportion of the cost of production and delivery will diminish too. This will make to move the focus of quality management because new manufacturing techniques make it cheaper and faster to respond to changing local tastes Methods: This discussion is induced by understanding that change the point of view of quality. Results: Mark-processing method using a mold of 3D-printer is different from traditional manufacturing methods. Design, rapid prototyping of products produced by the right way, many changes in many industries will be created. Therefore, the design will be more emphasis on the importance of quality. Conclusion: As manufacturing goes digital, a Quality great change is now gathering pace. It will allow things to be made economically in much smaller numbers, more flexibly and with a much lower input of labour, thanks to new materials, completely new processes such as 3D printing. So we must change the vantage point of quality, from process to Design, R&D, and Delivery.

Low cycle fatigue tests are performed on the HSLA steel that be developed for a submarine material. The relation between strain energy density and numbers of cycles to failure is examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of HSLA steel. The cyclic properties are determined by a least square fit techniques. The life predicted by the strain energy method is found to coincide with experimental data and results obtained from the Coffin-Manson method. Also the cyclic behavior of HSLA steel is characterized by cyclic softening with increasing number of cycle at room temperature. Especially, low cycle fatigue characteristics and microstructural changes of HSLA steel are investigated according to changing tempering temperatures. In the case of HSLA steel, the $\varepsilon$-Cu is farmed in $550^{\circ}C$ of tempering temperature and enhances the low cycle fatigue properties.

In the present study, the wave excitation forces acting on an array of porous circular cylinders are examined based on diffraction problems. To calculate the wave forces, the fluid domain is divided into three regions i.e. a single exterior region, N interior regions and N beneath regions, and the diffraction in each fluid region is expressed by an eigenfunction expansion method with using 3-dimension liner potential theory (Williams and Li, 2000). Especially, the present method is extended to the case of an array of truncated porous circular cylinders to calculate the heave forces as well as surge and sway forces. To verify this method, the numerical results obtained by eigenfunction are compared with these results obtained by higher order boundary element method (Choi et al., 2000). The numerical results obtained by this study are in good agreement with those results. By changing the numbers of porous circular cylinders, the angle of incident wave and the porosity rate of circular cylinders, the wave excitation forces such as surge, sway and heave on an array of truncated porous circular cylinders are investigated.

In logistics e-marketplaces, brokerage agents intermediate empty vehicles and freights registered by car owners and shippers. In the previous research, we proposed constant periodic/fixed matching algorithms for the logistics brokerage agents with the objective of minimizing the total transportation lead time and the transportation due date tardiness of freights(Jeong, 2004; Jeong, 2007). However, the constant type algorithms cannot consider changes in the balance status of an e-marketplace, i.e. the difference between the numbers of freights and vehicles to wait for matching, because they use non-changing matching periods and amounts. In this paper, we propose variable type algorithms for the logistics brokerage agent, in which the matching periods and amounts are changed continuously by considering the balance status between the freights and vehicles. In order to compare performance of the variable type algorithms to the previous constant type algorithms, we carried out computational experiments on various problem instances. The results show that the variable type algorithms give better performance than the constant type algorithms. We can expect that the logistics brokerage agents can improve their performance by using the proposed variable periodic/fixed matching algorithms.

An experomental study on drg reduction in the rough tubes is presunted using the drrective drag reducing proymer solutions. The friction factors of the rough tubes follow the maximum drag reduction asymptote for the lower Reynolds numbers in the turbulent flow. However, as the Reynols number is increased the rougher tube results deviate from the maximum drag rduction asymptote sooner than the less rough tube results. There appears a systematic deviation from the maximum drag reduction asymptote depending on the relative roughness just as friction factors for the Newtonian hluid inthe rough tubes exhibit in the turbulent region. The minor loss results inthe various fittings such as elbows, tees, and gate valves are presunted The fittings show higher values of the loss coefficient in the drag reducing polymer solutions than in the Newtonian fluid, which is quite contrary to the drag reduction phenomenon in the straight tubes. The eqivalent length of the fittings for the drag reducing polymer solutions is many times longer than that for Newtonian fluids due to the increase of the loss coefficient and the decrease of the friction factor. It is speculated that the solid-like behavior of the polymer solutions in the abruptly changing folw passage plays a significant role in increasing the loss coefficient.

The BSCCO thin film fabricated by using the layer by layer deposition method was compared with the BSCCO thin film fabricated by using the evaporation method. Reevaporation in the form of Bi atoms or $Bi_2O_3$molecules easily bring out the deficiency of Bi atoms in thin film due to the long sputtering time of the layer by layer deposition. On the other hand, the respective atom numbers corresponding to BSCCO phase is concurrently supplied on the film surface in the evaporation deposition process and leads to BSCCO phase formation. Also, it is cofirmed that by optimizing the deposition condition, each single phase of the Bi2201 phase and the Bi2212 phase can be fabricated, the sticking coefficient of Bi element is clearly related to the changing of substrate temperature and the formation of the Bi2212 phase.

Functional school planning has long been considered a fundamental concept of school design. However. in planning educational facilities, it is also important to include the dimensions of comfort, convenience and healthfulness. The school lavatories and drinking fountains are one of most crucial elements for the recent changing face in healthful school design, but the number of lavatories and drinking fountains in most schools may not be sufficient to meet current needs. This study aims to suggest a guideline in designing school sanitary fixture and propose the optimal number of lavatories and drinking fountains regarded to age and sex. The survey is conducted through questionnaires collected from 998 respondents including 300 teachers In ChungNam province. Based on the results of the survey and a formulae, it is suggested that the number of lavatories be required by ratio of 30 boys per unit fixture and 22 girls per unit fixture in the elementary, middle and high school. It is also suggested that the number of drinking fountains be required by ratio of 65 students per unit fixture. The formulae proposed in this paper can be used for other plumbing fixtures required in school facilities.

High-speed vessels are prone to the surf-riding in adverse quartering seas. The possibility of mitigating the surf-riding of the ITTC A2 fishing vessel in the design stage is investigated using the 6-DOF weakly non-linear model developed for surf-riding simulations in quartering seas. The longitudinal position of the ship's center of buoyancy (LCB) is chosen as the design parameter. The adjusting of LCB is achieved by changing frame area curves, and hull surfaces are reconstructed accordingly using the Radial Basis Function (RBF). Surf-riding motions in regular following seas for cases with different LCBs and Froude numbers are simulated using the numerical model. Results show that the surf-riding cannot be prevented by the adjusting of LCB. However, it occurs with a higher threshold speed when ship's center of buoyancy (COB) is moved towards stem compared to moving towards stern, which is mainly due to the differences on wave resistance caused by the adjusting of LCB.

An airbag is an essential automotive component used in all kinds of vehicles such as an internal combustion engine and an electric motor vehicle and is used to minimize the damage of an occupant in the event of an accident. Airbag-related parts are being monopolized by a small number of foreign companies around the world. In this situation, it is necessary to develop and research the airbag-related part molding technology for expansion of the domestic airbag-related market and corporate export. As a part of this research, we have developed a mold for airbag inflator cap. The development consists of three steps which are the design of components, analysis of the design and verification of it. In the case of the design, the transfer type mold was designed for the multi-cylindrical shaped feature. Analysis was then conducted on the design. By examining the results of analysis, changing features and numbers of punches and dies were added in the analysis and repeatedly analyzed. After the addition, proper dimensions from the analysis were achieved, and prototypes were practically produced and verified. In the case of prototype verification, Pressurizing Burst Test was conducted on the existing products and the prototype. By comparing the results of the test, the possibility of replacing the existing product of the airbag inflator cap is presented in this paper.
