We analyzed the damage effect on Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastics(GFRP) under air flow by irradiation of continuous wave near-IR laser. Damage process and temporal temperature distribution were demonstrated and material characteristics were observed with laser intensity, surface flow speed and angle. Surface temperature on GFRP rapidly increased with laser intensity, and the damaged pattern was different with flow characteristics. In case of no flow, penetration on GFRP by burning and flame generation after laser irradiation was appeared at once. GFRP was penetrated by the heat generated from resin ignition. In case of laser irradiation under flow, a flame generated after burning extinguished at once by flow and penetration pattern on GFRP were differently shown with flow angle. From the results, we presented the damage process and its mechanism.

The Purpose of this paper is to weld a rapid palatal expander using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser. The rapid palatal expander has become a useful treatment method for severe maxillary transverse deficiencies and posterior crossbites. Rapid maxillary expansion is a well-established method to correct transverse maxillary deficiency and arch length discrepancy. The major process parameters studied in the present laser welding experiment were the positions of focus, laser power and travel speed of laser beam. We measured the fusion zone size and its shape using an optical microscope for the observation of cross-sectional area and tension stress of a rapid palatal expander welded. Through the experimental investigation, the optimum speeds and power of laser without deficiencies of weld cross-sectional area were obtained.

We report the simple detection method of the small hydrocarbons, methane and ethane, by continuous-wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy near 1.67 ${\mu}m$ using an external cavity diode laser. The absorption lines of methane between 6002.48 $cm^{-1}$ and 6003.37 $cm^{-1}$ and ethane between 5955.65 $cm^{-1}$ and 5956.4 $cm^{-1}$ have been resolved and employed for the gas detection. The largest absorption cross sections were found to be 6.5$\times10^{-20}cm^2$ and 7.4$\times10^{-21}cm^2$ for methane and ethane, respectively, in each spectral range. The minimum detectable absorption limit of our spectrometer was 4.8${\times}10^{-9}cm^{-1}$/$\sqrt{Hz}$, which corresponds to the detection limits of 3 ppb/$\sqrt{Hz}$ and 27 ppb/$\sqrt{Hz}$ for methane and ethane, respectively. The near-IR continuous-wave cavity ring-down spectroscopic detection method of the small hydrocarbons can be applied for medical diagnosis and environmental monitoring as a fast and convenient method.

Welding characteristics of STS304 stainless steel and Inconel 600 using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser are experimentally investigated. Alloy 600 being used in steam generator tubing of pressurized water reactor(PWR) exposed to some corrosion environment, stress corrosion cracking can occur on this material. Presented here are the results from a series of experiments in which dissimilar metal welds were made using the gas tungsten arc welding process with pure argon shielding gas. But It is well known that solidification cracking susceptibility of austenitic alloys depends on the solidification temperature range and amount/distribution of solute rich liquid that exists at the terminal stages of solidification. An experimental study was conducted to determine effects of welding parameters and to optimize those parameters that have the most influence on eliminating or reducing the extent welding zone formation at dissimilar metal welds.

We report the use of a widely tunable detuned dual-mode laser diode (DML) as a compact and portable continuous-wave THz emitter. The wavelength difference between the two lasing modes of this DML can be tuned from 2.4 nm to 9.3 nm by using integrated microheaters. The power difference between these modes is less than 1 dB, and the side-mode suppression ratio is greater than 30 dB over the entire tuning range.

The objective of this research work is to investigate the effects of process parameters, such as power of laser, travel speed of laser and material thickness, on kerfwidth and characteristics of the cut surface for the case of cutting of CSP 1N sheet using high power continuous wave Nd:YAG laser. In order to find relationship between the process parameters on the quality of the cut section, such as kerfwidth, surface roughness and the striation formation, several laser cutting experiments are carried out. From the results of experiments, an optimal cutting speed for each cutting condition has been obtained to improve the quality of the cut surface.

For many years and primarily for economical reasons, Dissimilar Metal Welds have been used as transition joints in a variety of equipment and applications. But Dissimilar Metal Welds have several fabrication and metallurgical drawbacks that can often lead to in-service failures. For example, the most pronounced fabrication faults are hot cracks. Laser welding techniques have been characterised for various materials. In this paper, the laser weldability of STS304 stainless steel and SM45C at dissimilar metal welds using a continuous wave Nd：YAG laser are experimentally investigated. An experimental study was conducted to determine effects of welding parameters, on eliminating or reducing the extent welding zone formation at dissimilar metal welds and to optimize those parameters that have the most influence parameters such as focus length, power, beam speed, shielding gas, and wave length of laser were tested

Because the pure titanium has superior corrosion resistance and formability compared with different material, it is widely used as material of welded heat exchanger. When the welding of heat exchanger is carried out, certain area in which welding start and end are overlapped occurs. The humping of back bead is formed in the overlap area due to partial penetration. Thus in this study, the experiments were carried out by changing the length and wave shape of overlap area, and then the weldabiliay was evaluated through the observation of microstructure, the measurement of hardness and tensile-shear strength test in the overlap area. When overlap length was 9.8mm, humping bead was suppressed. The microstructure of overlap area coarsened and its hardness increased due to remelting. As a result of tensile-shear strength test in the overlap area according to applying the wave shape control, it was confirmed that the overlap area applied wave shape control had more excellent yield strength and ductility.
