The industries use polymer materials for many purposes for they have many merits. The costs of these materials take up too great a proportion of the overall cost of products that use these materials as their major material. It is advantage for polymer industries to reduce these costs. The microcellular foaming process was developed in the early 1980s to solve this problem and proved to be quite successful. Microcellular foaming process uses inert gases such as $CO_2$, $N_2$. As these gases solve into polymer matrices, many properties are changed. The microcellular foaming process makes the glass transition temperature of polymers to low, and diminish the residual stress of polymer matrices. Besides, the microcellular foaming process has several merits, impact strength elevation, thermal insulation, noise insulation, and raw material saving etc. This characteristic of microcellular foaming process has influenced by cell morphology. The cell morphology means cell size and cell density. The cell morphology has influenced by many factors. The examples of factor are pressure drop rate, foaming temperature, foaming time, saturation pressure, saturation time etc. Among their factors, pressure drop rate is the most important factor for cell morphology in microcellular foaming injection molding process. This paper describes about the cell morphology change in accordance with the pressure drop rate of microcellular foaming injection molding process.

본 논문에서는 Normal ink jetting 공법으로 OTFT를 제작할 때 coffee stain effect에 의해서 반도체 소자의 특성이 저하되는 것을 극복하기 위해서 동일한 위치에 동일한 부피로 Droplet을 형성하는 Multiple ink jetting 공법을 통해 TIPS pentacene 결정의 Morphology와 전기적 특성이 어떻게 변화하는지 알아 보았다. Multiple ink jetting의 drop 횟수가 증가할수록 coffee stain effect에 의해서 형성된 가운데 영역의 Dendrite grain이 점점 작아지다가 7 Drops 이후로는 Big grain 만 남게 되었다. Active layer의 표면 Roughness는 drop 횟수가 증가할수록 낮아지다가 일정 count 이후로는 다시 높아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 전계 이동도(mobility)는 drop 횟수가 증가할수록 커지다가 일정 count 이후로는 saturation되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Multiple ink jetting에 의해서 만들어진 OTFT 소자의 전계 이동도(mobility)는 1 drop과 10 drops에서 각각 0.0059, 0.036 cm2/Vs 로 6배 정도 차이가 있었다. 이것은 첫 drop에 의해 만들어진 가운데 Dendrite grain 영역이 Multiple ink jetting을 반복하면서 점점 작아지게 되어 사라지고 두꺼운 Grain 영역만 남게 된 것으로 판단된다. Vth 와 On/Off ratio는 1 drop과 10 drops에서 각각 -3 V, -2 V 그리고 $3.3{\times}10^3$, $1.0{\times}10^4$를 보였다. OTFT의 substrate로 Flexible한 polyethersulfone (PES) 기판을 사용하였고, 절연체로 Spin coating된 Poly-4-vinylphenol (PVP)가 사용되었으며, Gate 및 Source/Drain 전극은 Au를 50 nm 두께로 증착하였다. Channel의 width와 length는 각각 100 um, 40 um 였고, Gate 전극 위에 Active layer를 형성한 Bottom gate 구조로 제작되었다. Ink jet으로 제작된 TIPS pentacene의 결정성은 x-ray diffraction (XRD)와 광학 현미경으로 분석하였고 Thickness profile은 알파스텝 측정기를 이용하였으며, OTFT의 전기적 특성은 Keithley-4,200을 사용하여 측정하였다.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in spatiotemporal gait performance, function, and pain of lower-extremity according to foot morphological characteristics. Method: This case-control study recruited 42 adults and they were classified into 3 groups according to foot morphology using navicular-drop test: pronated (≥ 10 mm), normal (5~9 mm), and supinated (≤ 4 mm) feet. Spatiotemporal gait analysis and questionnaires including Foot and Ankle Ability Measure activities of daily living / Sports, Western Ontario and McMasters Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Lower Extremity Functional Scale, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and Tegner activity score were conducted. One-way analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. Results: The pronated feet group showed longer loading response and double limb support in both feet and increased pre-swing phase in non-dominant feet. The supinated feet group demonstrated a longer swing phase in non-dominant feet and single limb support in dominant feet. However, there was no significant group difference in function and pain of knee joint and lower-extremity between groups. Conclusion: Our results indicated that abnormal spatiotemporal gait performance according to foot morphology. Although there was no difference in lower extremity dysfunction and pain according to the difference in foot morphology, they have the possibility of symptom occurs as a result of continuous participation in activities of daily living and sports. Therefore, individuals with pronated or supinated foot should be supplemented by utilizing an orthosis or training to restore normal gait performance.

Morphology of injection molded polymer blend was investigated by experimental and theoretical approach. In experiments, the effects of injection speed and injection temperature on the morphology of injection molded MPPO/Nylon 6 blend were investigated. The morphology distribution across the part thickness was clearly observed in injection molded blend. We could observe several distinct regions across the thickness of molded part: skin layer, subskin layer and core region. The skin layer where the dispersed phase is fine and highly deformed to the flow direction is observed to be located near the part surface. The subskin layer located at inner region of the skin layer also observed. In the subskin layer, the dispersed phase is coarser than that of skin layer and deforms to the flow direction. Based on the experimental results, the calculation scheme to predict the morphology of injection molded polymer blend was suggested. The morphology of injection molded polymer blend could be predicted in corporation with the result of flow analysis obtained from commercial software for injection molding process and the theory of drop behavior under the flow. The suggested calculation scheme could predict the effect of injection conditions on the morphology of injection molded parts.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the various sizing systems and specified anthropometric data as well as the fit issues used today. Background: A standard sizing system for clothes is a system that is developed based on body shape and size classifications method. To develop an efficient sizing system, we have to classify the database from the majority of the samples. Method: The method of this paper deals with the secular trend of height spanning from 1997 to 2010 along with the morphological feature patterns for Koreans. It also investigates the comparison of the growth pattern between male and female and the body shape classification according to the drop values based on the anthropometric data samples of KATS taken from the 2010 surveys in order to develop and define the new guidelines for the size designation systems of clothes. Results: The results are classified with body size and shape categories according to the drop values by age and sex in order to develop the new guidelines for the size designation systems based on these body dimensions from the analyzed anthropometric database. Conclusion: These new guidelines for the size designation system will eliminate the confusion that currently exists among countries and individual apparel designers. Application: The adopted standards could be used to compare the sizing systems worldwide.

Electrospinning is one of the simple, cost- efficient methods to produce long continuous semiconducting oxide nanofibers. Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and zinc acetate were used. PVA/Zinc acetate aqueous solutions were electrospun into nonwoven webs. CCD camera, with a lens of long working distance and digital video board were used in capturing the drop and web deposition. The diameter and morphology of nanofibers were analyzed with a Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In this study, the average diameter and morphology of nanofibers have been explorered.

In order to investigate the effects of microstructure Oil film on the welding spatter in Zn electroplated steel, Zn electroplated surface and layer structure with USS-Paddition was observed using XRD, XPS and optical microscopy. Wettability of water drop on the Zn electroplated steel surface was measured using Z.Mei model. Oil absorption test was carried out using Oil pen. Morphology of spot welding and spatter with USS-P addition, applied current, and oil-spray or oil-without was observed using SEM and optical microscopy. Surface morphology of Zn electroplated steel showed finer structure as USS-P content increased. Wettabiliy on the Zn electroplated surface decreased with increasing USS-P content. Size of welding trace increased and spatter occured arround the welding part as applied current increased, whereas spatter disappeared as USS-P content increased and disappeared in case of oil spraying on the Zn electroplated surface.
