본 논문에서는 3차원 모델링을 이용하여 원공을 갖는 알루미늄 판의 패치 보강효과에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 구조물의 노후화로 인해 높은 응력을 받는 부재의 응력 특이점에서 내구력이 급격하게 저하되거나 때로는 부재의 정적파괴를 유발시키는 원인을 제공한다. 이로 인해 과거에는 손상된 모재에 보강 재료를 연결시키기 위하여 리벳 또는 볼트와 같은 기계적 연결을 통해 보강하였으나 최근에는 접착패치보강 기법이 그 주류를 이루고 있다. 패치 보강시 일면 패치 보강으로 인하여 면외 휨 효과가 발생된다. 판의 두께 방향에 따른 응력집중계수를 별도로 분석하였다. 기존의 3차원 솔리드 요소는 해의 정확성은 뛰어난 반면에 상당한 컴퓨터 시간을 요구하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해서, 본 논문에서는 각 층의 변위장을 2차원 형상함수와 1차원 형상함수의 조합으로 구성하여, 면내거동에 대한 p-세분화와 면외거동에 대한 p-세분화를 분리시키는 방식을 취한다. 또한, 에너지 함수의 적분시 Gauss-Lobatto 적분법을 사용하여 절점의 위치에서의 응력점을 구하는 경우, 외삽과정을 계산하는 단계를 생략하면서도, 해의 정확성 측면에서는 거의 차이가 없기 때문에 좀 더 효율적인 수치적분이 될 수 있다.

This paper presents an optimal design and the performance evaluation of two-axis nano positioning stage with round notched flexure hinges. A flexure hinge mechanism with round notched flexure hinges is to guide the linear motions of a moving plate in the nano positioning stage. A Min-Max algorithm is applied to the design of the flexure hinge mechanism for nano positioning stage. In the design process, the structure of the flexure hinge mechanism is fixed, then the radius of a round hole and the width of two round holes are chosen as design variables, and finally the do sign variables are calculated by the Min-Max algorithm. The machined flexure hinge mechanism, stack type PZTs for actuation and capacitance type displacement sensors for position measurement are assembled into the nano positioning stage. The experimental results of the manufactured nano positioning stage show the first modal resonance frequency of 197 Hz, the operating range of 40 um, and the resolution of 3 nm.

In this study residual stress in weldment was considered about the effect on the fatigue propagation and about the effect of redistribution of residual stress. Then, fatigue tests were conducted by the center notched specimens machined with welded plate. The residual stress and its redistribution after the crack growth were measured by the magnetizing stress indicator and hole-drilling method. Fatigue crack propagation was estimated by the specimens having residual stress redistributed after the cracks growth and having the effects of crack closure. Crack growth rates were predicted and compared with experimental results. It had been found that the predicted crack propagation rates have a good agreement with experimental results when the redistribution of residual stress was considerd.

An experimental investigation was conducted to enhance the heat/mass transfer for impingement/effusion cooling system when the initial crossflow was formed. For the improvement of heat transfer, the circular guide is installed on the injection hole. At the fixed jet Reynolds number of 10,000, the measurements were carried out for blowing ratios ranging from 0.5 to 1.5. The local heat/mass transfer coefficients on the effusion plate are measured using a naphthalene sublimation method. The result presents that the circular guide protects the injected jet from the initial crossflow, increasing the heat/mass transfer. The heat transfer of stagnation region is hardly changed regardless of the blowing ratio. The secondary peak is obviously formed by flow transition to turbulent flow. At high blowing ratio of 1.5, the circular guide produces $26{\sim}30%$ augmentation on the averaged heat/mass transfer while the case without circular guide leads to the low and non-uniform heat/mass transfer. With the increased heat/mass transfer, the installation of circular guide is accompanied by the increase of pressure loss in the channel. However, the pressure drop caused by the circular guide is lower than that for other cooling technique with the circular pin fin.

This paper presents an efficient meshless method for analyzing cracked piezoelectric structures subjected to mechanical and electrical loading. The method employs an element free Galerkin (EFG) formulation and an enriched basic function as well as special shape functions that contain discontinuous derivatives. Based on the moving least squares (MLS) interpolation approach, The EFG method is one of the promising methods for dealing with problems involving progressive crack growth. Since the method is meshless and no element connectivity data are needed, the burdensome remeshing procedure required in the conventional finite element method (FEM) is avoided. The numerical results show that the proposed method yields an accurate near-tip stress field in an infinite piezoelectric plate containing an interior hole. Another example is to study a ceramic multilayer actuator. The proposed model was found to be accurate in the simulation of stress and electric field concentrations due to the abrupt end of an internal electrode.

Though a peristaltic pump is a crucial element in miniaturized drug delivery systems, it has some intrinsic disadvantages such as backflow and flow fluctuation. To overcome these limitation, we have developed valve-less peristaltic pump system including orifice and stagnation chamber. we measured flow rate to investigate the performance of rotary peristaltic pump with three rollers and an elastomeric tube pumping a viscous fluid. The flow fluctuations and the backflow happen as a result from the disengagement of the contact interaction between the rollers and the tubes. Stagnation chamber installed in front of orifice plate was composed of rubber tube and gas chamber. By changing orifice hole diameter with stagnation chamber flow rate and pressure in the tube was regulated. The obtained maximum reduction ratio of flow fluctuation is 96.79%.

Top-emission device has a merit of high aperture ratio and narrow emission spectrum compared to that of bottom-emission one. Emission spectra of top-emission organic light-emitting diodes depending on a layer thickness and view angle were analyzed using a theory of microcavity. Device structure was manufactured to be Al (100 nm)/TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF (0.5 nm)/Al (2 nm)/Ag (30 nm). N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'- di (m-tolyl)-benzidine (TPD) and tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminium (Alq3) were used as a hole-transport layer and emission layer, respectively. And a thickness of TPD and Alq3 layer was varied in a range of 40 nm~70 nm and 60 nm~110 nm, respectively. Angle-dependent emission spectrum out of the device was measured with a device fixed on a rotating plate. Since the top-emission device has a property of microcavity, it was observed that the emission spectrum shift to a longer wavelength region as the organic layer thickness increases, and to a shorter wavelength region as the view angle increases. Layer thickness and view-angle dependent emission spectra of the device were analyzed in terms of microcavity theory. A reflectivity of semitransparent cathode and optical path length were deduced.

We have focused on the conversion efficiency of CIGS thin film solar cell prepared by co-evaporation method as well as the optimization of process condition. The total thickness of back electrode was fixed at 1 ${\mu}m$ and the structural, electric and optical properties of CIGS thin film were investigated by varying the thickness of Mo:Na bottom layer from 0 to 500 nm. From the experimental results, the content of Na was appeared as 0.28 atomic percent when the thickness of Mo:Na layer was 300 nm with compactly densified plate-shape surface morphology. From the XRD measurements, (112) plane was the strongest preferential orientation together with secondary (220) and (204) planes affecting to the crystallization. The lowest roughness and resistivity were 2.67 nm and 3.9 ${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, respectively. In addition, very high carrier density and hole mobility were recorded. From the optimization of Mo:Na layer, we have achieved the conversion efficiency of 9.59 percent.

In order to investigate the possibility of impact punching in brittle materials, an experimental setup was developed. In the setup, a long bar as a punch was used to apply the impact load to the specimen plate and measure the applied impact force during the impact punching process. Impact punching tests with various shape of punches were performed in soda-lime glass and silicon wafer under a different level of contact pressure. The damage appearance after the impact punching was examined according to the applied contact pressure. The minimum contact pressure required for a complete punching in glass specimens without development of radial cracks around the punched hole was sought at each condition. The minimum contact pressure increased with increasing the thickness of specimens and decreasing the end radius of punches. The profile of impact forces was measured during the impact punching experiment, and it could explain well the behavior of the punching process in brittle material plates. The measured impact force increased with increasing the contact pressure applied to the plates.

Based on the application of te theory of conjugate approximations and the Loubignac's iterative method in a local region, a method to improve the stress filed in a displacement-formulated finite element solution has been proposed. The validity of the proposed method has been tested through two examples : a thick cylinder under internal pressure loading and an infinite plate with a central circular hole subjected to uniaxial tension. As a result of analysis of the examples, it was found that the stress field obtained for the local region model by the proposed method approximates well for the whole domain model. In addition, it was found that because of a significant decrease in the computing time to obtain the improved stress field, the proposed method is efficient and useful for the detailed stress analysis in local regions.
