  • VLSI(Very Large Scale Integration)와 WSI(Wafer Scale Integration)와 같은 통합기술로 인해 큰 용량의 메모리 대량생산이 가능 하게 된 지금 Redundancy는 메모리 칩의 제조와 결함이 있는 셀을 지닌 디바이스를 치료하는데 광범위하게 사용되어져왔다. 메모리칩의 밀도가 증가함에 따라 결함의 빈도 또한 증가한다. 많은 결함이 있다면 어쩔 수 없겠지만 적은 결함이 발생한 경우에는 해당 다이를 reject 시키는 것 보다는 수선해서 사용하는 것이 메모리생산 업체 입장에서는 보다 효율적이고 원가 절감 차원에서 필수적이다. 이와 같은 이유로 laser repair라는 공정이 필요하고 laser repair공정의 정확한 타깃을 설정하기 위해 redundancy analysis가 필요하게 되었다. CRA시뮬레이션은 기존의 redundancy analysis 알고리즘의 개념에서 벗어나 결함 유형별로 시뮬레이션한 후 RA를 진행함으로써 RA에 소요되는 시간을 절약함으로써 원가 경쟁력 강화를 할 수 있다.

  • Effects of the aging treatments on the microstructure and strength of heat affected zone(HAZ) in the welds of a age-hardened Al-Mg-Si alloy, 5N01-T5, were investigated. The base metal aging treatments before MIG welding were conducted at 423K to 473K for 28.8ks Post weld heat treatment(PWHT) to recover the HAZ strength was performed at 448K for 28.8ks. Microstructure observations, hardness measurements and tensile tests were conducted to study properties of the MIG weld joints. The position of the softest region in HAZ where the hardness insufficiently recovered after natural aging and PWHT was at a distance of approximately 15mm from the center of the fusion zone. Hardness of the softest regions after natural aging and PWHT decreased with increase in the base metal aging temperature. TEM observation clarified that strengthening ${\beta}$"(Mg$_2$Si) precipitates and coarse ${\beta}$′ precipitates affected the hardnes of HAZ. Incomplete recover of hardness in HAZ after PWHT was caused by the precipitating of non-hardening ${\beta}$′ phase during the weld thermal cycle. In order to examine the effects of weldheat input and welding speed, the laser weld joints were also investigated and compared with the MIG weld ones. Laser welding had the narrower width of the softened regions in HAZ compared with MIG welding. The hardness of the softest regions of the laser welds after PWHT was higher than that of the MIG welds. Quantitative relations between hardness of the softest region and base metal aging temperature were obtained for both welding processes. Accordingly, the equations to estimate the strength of the weld joints after PWHT with varying base metal temperatures were proposed for MIG welding and laser welding.

  • An oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) layer was formed on Zircaloy-4 tubes by a laser beam scanning process to increase mechanical strength. Laser beam was used to scan the yttrium oxide ($Y_2O_3$)-coated Zircaloy-4 tube to induce the penetration of $Y_2O_3$ particles into Zircaloy-4. Laser surface treatment resulted in the formation of an ODS layer as well as microstructural phase transformation at the surface of the tube. The mechanical strength of Zircaloy-4 increased with the formation of the ODS layer. The ring-tensile strength of Zircaloy-4 increased from 790 to 870 MPa at room temperature, from 500 to 575 MPa at $380^{\circ}C$, and from 385 to 470 MPa at $500^{\circ}C$. Strengthening became more effective as the test temperature increased. It was noted that brittle fracture occurred at room temperature, which was not observed at elevated temperatures. Resistance to dynamic high-temperature bursting improved. The burst temperature increased from 760 to $830^{\circ}C$ at a heating rate of $5^{\circ}C/s$ and internal pressure of 8.3 MPa. The burst opening was also smaller than those in fresh Zircaloy-4 tubes. This method is expected to enhance the safety of Zr fuel cladding tubes owing to the improvement of their mechanical properties.

  • Laser-carburized TiZrN 코팅의 침탄 공정에서 탄소 페이스트 두께에 따른 탄소의 침투 깊이 및 압축잔류응력 변화를 탄소 포텐셜 측면으로 비교·고찰하였다. 스크린 프린팅과 스핀 코팅 방법을 이용하여 각각 1.1 mm와 0.4 mm의 두께로 탄소 페이스트를 도포하고, 동일한 레이저 조사 조건에서 레이저 침탄을 실시하였다. 탄소 페이스트가 두꺼워질수록 침탄된 TiZrN 시료의 회절 패턴이 더 저각으로 이동하였으며, 고용체 강화 및 격자 왜곡의 심화를 나타내었다. TEM을 이용한 미세구조 분석에서도 두꺼운 페이스트로부터 침탄된 TiZrN 내 결정질 결함이 증가하고 높은 탄소 농도를 보였으며, 이는 페이스트 두께가 두꺼워질수록 탄소 포텐셜도 높아짐을 의미하였다. XPS depth profile 분석에서도 두꺼운 페이스트를 통해 침탄된 TiZrN 시료에서 높은 탄소 농도 및 탄화물 형성을 보이면서, 탄소 페이스트 두께 조절에 의해 침탄에서 표면 탄소농도와 탄소 포텐셜 증가가 일어남을 나타내었다. 아울러, 탄소 농도의 증가는 표면의 압축잔류응력 증가(3.67 GPa에서 4.58 GPa로)에 기여하였음을 확인하였다.

  • Recently, wave propagation imaging based on laser scanning-generated elastic waves has been intensively used for nondestructive inspection. However, the proficiency of the conventional software based system reduces when the scan area is large since the processing time increases significantly due to unavoidable processor multitasking, where computing resources are shared with multiple processes. Hence, the field programmable gate array (FPGA) was introduced for a wave propagation imaging method in order to obtain extreme processing time reduction. An FPGA board was used for the design, implementing post-processing ultrasonic wave propagation imaging (UWPI). The results were compared with the conventional system and considerable improvement was observed, with at least 78% (scanning of $100{\times}100mm^2$ with 0.5 mm interval) to 87.5% (scanning of $200{\times}200mm^2$ with 0.5 mm interval) less processing time, strengthening the claim for the research. This new concept to implement FPGA technology into the UPI system will act as a break-through technology for full-scale automatic inspection.

  • Objective: This study was conducted to confirm the effect of physiotherapy on the balance and walking in dog with sciatic nerve injury and degenerative arthritis of stifle joints. Design: Single case study Methods: The dog walked abnormally for six months and was administrated in S animal hospital. The dog's right hindlimb was operated for cranial cruciate ligament repair and the dog had been taking a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic before being refered. There was severe degenerated osteoarthritis in the right hindlimb. During stance and walking, the right hindlimb was often shown partial weight bearing. The dog's left hindlimb was shown plantigrade stance and walking. The radiograph was shown an intact calcaneal tendon in the left hindlimb. In the neurologic examination, sciatic nerve injury in the left hindlimb was confirmed. The dog was treated using muscle strengthening, proprioceptive exercise, underwater treadmill and Laser therapy two, or three times a week for 3 months. At the 10th and 17th treatment, it was evaluated through stance and gait analyzer system to measure dog's balance and walking. Results: 3 months following physiotherapy, the dog's balance was improved in center of pressure(COP). And peak vertical force(PVF), vertical impulse(VI) was increased in right hindlimb and double stance was decreased. Conclusions: Physiotherapy may have improved the prognosis in this dog with severe osteoarthritis and sciatic nerve injury. This study suggested that animal physiotherapy is a valuable way to improve balance and walking.

  • Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines (Xag) is a necrotrophic bacterial pathogen of the soybean that causes bacterial pustules and is a nonhost pathogen of the chili pepper. In the current study, chili pepper fruit wound inoculated in planta with Xag 8ra formed necrotic lesions on the fruit surface and induced several structural and chemical barriers systemically in the fruit tissue. The initial defense response included programmed cell death of necrotizing and necrotized cells, which was characterized by nuclear DNA cleavage, as detected by TUNEL-confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and phosphatidylserine exposure on cell walls distal to the infection site, as detected by Annexin V FLUOS-CLSM. These two responses may facilitate cell killing and enhance transportation of cell wall materials used for cell wall thickening, respectively. The cells beneath the necrotic tissue were enlarged and divided to form periclinal cell walls, resulting in extensive formation of several parallel boundary layers at the later stages of infection, accompanying the deposition of wall fortification materials for strengthening structural defenses. These results suggest that nonhost resistance of chili pepper fruit against the nonhost necrotrophic pathogen Xag 8ra is activated systematically from the initial infection until termination of the infection cycle, resulting in complete inhibition of bacterial pathogenesis by utilizing organspecific in situ physiological events governed by the expression of genes in the plant fruit organ.

  • 1957년 소련의 스푸트닉 위성 발사 성공에 이은 미 소간 그리고 이후 다수 국가에의한 우주의 군사적 이용 및 우주공간에서의 군비경쟁은 인류의 공동자산으로서의 우주의 평화적 이용을 규정한 우주조약(OST)을 비롯한 다수 국제 조약의 이념에 배치되고 있다. 동서냉전의 격화와 더불어 이 같은 우주에서의 군사적 이용 및 경쟁은 더욱 가열되어져 왔으며, 우주의 평화적 이용 이념은 침략적 목적이 아닌 한 사실상 군사적 이용이 가능하다고 해석되고 있다. 군사적 이용은 주로 우주공간의 위성을 공격하거나 위성으로부터 공격을 하기위해 지상-우주, 우주-우주, 우주-지상의 세 방향으로 핵무기, 운동/초고속 무기, 레이저, 분자 빔, 근접 폭발, 교란 무기 등 현재 및 미래에 이용 가능한 기술을 사용하고 있다. 우주에서의 군비 통제는 주로 UNCOPUOS를 중심으로 국제조약의 제정과 관련 국가의 많은 노력으로 이루어지고 있으며, 대량살상무기의 우주 공간에서의 배치가 금지되고 있다. 대표적인 국제사회의 군비 통제 노력을 열거하면 신뢰구축조치(CBM), 기존 조약 내용의 강화, 부분적 조치, 국가 및 지역적 접근, 종합적 접근, 법적 구속력 있는 대안 등을 통하여 추구되어지고 있다. 미국은 우주 선진국으로서 우주의 군사적 이용 면에서도 관련국가를 훨씬 앞지르고 있어 2000년대 초 우주조약에서 탈퇴함으로써 우주의 평화적 이용을 위한 국제사회의 노력과 엇 박자를 내고 있다. 우주에서의 군비 통제를 통하여 인류의 평화가 확보되고 환경보전이 이루어질 수 있도록 국제사회 및 관련 국가간 협력과 이행이 절실히 필요하다. 한반도에서도 북한의 핵실험 및 미사일 발사에 따른 핵무기 보유, 남한의 우주 로켓트 발사 등 제반 상황으로 볼 때 국제사회의 군비통제 노력에 적극 동참할 것이 요구되고 있다.
