This paper details a new ultra-precise turning method for increasing surface quality, "Multi Point B Axis Control Method." Machined surface error is minimized by the compensation machining process, but the process leaves residual chip marks and surface roughness. This phenomenon is unavoidable in the diamond turning process using existing machining methods. However, Multi Point B axis control uses a small angle (< $1^{\circ}$) for the unused diamond edge for generation of ultra-fine surfaces; no machining chipping occurs. It is achieved by compensated surface profiling via alignment of the tool radial center on the center of the B axis rotation table. Experimental results show that a diamond turned surface using the Multi Point B axis control method achieved P-V $0.1{\mu}m$ and Ra 1.1nm and these ultra-fine surface qualities are reproducible.

In this paper, we introduce an autonomous calibration method for a 2D laser displacement sensor (e.g. laser vision sensor and laser range finder) by matching a single point on a flat structure. Many arc welding robots install a 2D laser displacement sensor to expand their application by recognizing their environment (e.g. base metal and seam). In such systems, sensing data should be transformed to the robot's coordinates, and the geometric relation (i.e. rotation and translation) between the robot's coordinates and sensor coordinates should be known for the transformation. Calibration means the inference process of geometric relation between the sensor and robot. Generally, the matching of more than 3 points is required to infer the geometric relation. However, we introduce a novel method to calibrate using only 1 point matching and use a specific flat structure (i.e. circular hole) which enables us to find the geometric relation with a single point matching. We make the rotation component of the calibration results as a constant to use only a single point by moving a robot to a specific pose. The flat structure can be installed easily in a manufacturing site, because the structure does not have a volume (i.e. almost 2D structure). The calibration process is fully autonomous and does not need any manual operation. A robot which installed the sensor moves to the specific pose by sensing features of the circular hole such as length of chord and center position of the chord. We show the precision of the proposed method by performing repetitive experiments in various situations. Furthermore, we applied the result of the proposed method to sensor based seam tracking with a robot, and report the difference of the robot's TCP (Tool Center Point) trajectory. This experiment shows that the proposed method ensures precision.

전자포탈영상장치 (EPID)를 의료용 선형가속기의 QC/QA로 이용할 수 있게 하고 이 시스템의 유용성을 평가할 목적으로, 의료용 선형가속기의 기하학적 QC/QA 항목 중 빛-광자선 조사면 일치, 콜리메이터 회전축, 캔트리 회전축 등을 분석할 수 있고 임상응용에의 유용성을 실용적으로 수행할 수 있는 GUI(Graphic User Interface) 방식의 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 상용 전자포탈영상장치에서 수집한 영상을 네트워크를 통해 수집하고, 이 영상을 조작할 수 있는 OQuE (On-line quality assurance system using electronic portal imaging) 시스템을 PC 상에서 구현하였다. EPID는 Portal Vision(Varian, USA)을 사용하였고, 시스템의 유용성 검증을 위해 CL/2100/CD (Varian, USA)의 의료용 선형가속기를 이용하여 기하학적 QC/QA 성능과 임상응용에의 유용성을 평가하였다. 빛-광자선 조사면 일치를 ～1mm의 정밀ㆍ정확도로 평가할 수 있었다. 콜리메이터 또는 갠트리, 카우치 회전축 역시 4 개의 방사선 방향에 대한 영상을 중첩시켜서 중첩된 영상이 이루는 교점을 분석하여 구할 수 있었다. 빛-광자선 조사면 일치는 조사면별로 각각 영상을 얻고, 이들의 확대 영상과 중첩 영상을 보면서 중력장 중심 (center of gravity) 을 계산한 결과 5$\times$5 $cm^2$에서 0.2 mm, l0$\times$10, 15$\times$15, 20$\times$20 $cm^2$에서 0.3 mm내에 들어옴을 알 수 있었고 Upper Jaw 회전축은 $\pm$0.2 mm, Lower Jaw 회전축은 $\pm$0.1mm, 갠트리 회전축은 앞뒤 방향으로 $\pm$0.3 mm, 좌우 방향으로 $\pm$0.7 mm 내에 들어옴을 알 수 있었다. 카우치 회전측은 $\pm$0.2 mm 이내에 들어옴을 알 수 있었다. 영상수집 시간은 필름에 비해 훨씬 짧았으며, 그 분석 또한 객관적이고 정량적으로 이룰 수 있어서 전자포탈영상장치가 의료용 선형가속기의 QC/QA 도구로서 적당함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 기준영 상과 포탈영상의 필드경계와 해부학적 모양을 분석함으로써 임상응용에의 유용성을 평가할 수 있었다. 적절한 사용자 편의를 보완하면 이 소프트웨어는 의료용 선형가속기의 기하학적인 성능평가 및 임상에 적극 활용할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The focus of this investigation is to evaluate the effect of joining parameter on the microstructure and mechanical properties of welds produced by friction stir lap welding. The dissimilar Al alloys, KS5J32 and AA6K31, were joined by friction stir lap welding technique under several welding conditions, and KS5J32 alloy was placed on the top of AA6K31 alloy. The tool rotation speeds were 1000, 1250, and 1500rpm, and the welding speeds were 100, 300, 500, 700mm/min, respectively. The results showed that two shapes of nugget, such as onion ring and irregular vortex type, were observed with various revolutionary pitch. In all welding conditions, fracture occurred at the soften region of bottom sheet(AA6K31) and the strengths were 64~78% of those of base metal. Fractured positions were classified into three types : HAZ, triple point, void depending on the revolutionary pitch. The actual thickness of specimen at the fractured location was decreased with decreasing heat input. A linear relationship exists between the effective thickness of fractured position and peak load.

As a new format of retailing, social shopping on SNS has rapidly grown in recent. Although there is much literature associated with customer behaviours in the academic world, little attention has been paid to identifying the shopping patterns of SNS shoppers. This paper will, thus, identify how perceived value has an impact on the buying intention of SNS shoppers, after illustrating what kind of factor influences the formation process of perceived value in the Korean marketplace. Given that SNS shoppers are for the most part 20s as well as 30s, the authors handed out questionnaires to them. Furthermore, based on literature review results, the conceptualised research model was developed. Despite lack of literature, the authors developed five constructs like price reduction, quantity- and time-limited message, product ranges, information-sharing, and required number of shoppers. The researchers made a considerable effort to identify the relationship between research concepts and each variable, based on a few research analysis methods such as frequency analysis, the Varimax rotation technique used orthogonal rotation, Cronbach's Alpha, PCA (Principle Component Analysis), and the like. Amongst the 5 variables used to measure the degree of influences on the perceived value as a social shopping characteristic, it has been evident that price cut, required minimum shoppers, product variety, and information-sharing have a positive impact on the perceived value formation processes of SNS customers. Also, this research implies that SNS retailers can differentiate themselves from other retailers by differently using the above factors. From a practitioner's point of view, these factors should be strategically used to increase the social shopping opportunities of SNS users. It is, furthermore, evident that the perceived value formed by the above 4 factors have played an important role in the buying decision process of SNS customers. In a sense, whether customers are aware of higher price cut rates, information-sharing, required minimum shoppers, and product variety has a positive impact on making buying decisions. From a retailer's point of view, online shopping mall operators are able to use blog as well as twitter to improve the buying intention as a marketing tool of social network, because the business activities provided by social shopping retailers, like the rapid, accurate responses to customer requirements, the provision of a variety of information, and the communications between customers are closely related to buying intentions. There are a few research limitations to conduct this empirical research. It was not easy to review prior papers, due to its lack. In spite of the increasing number of SNS shoppers in Korea, little research attention has been paid to this kind of research topic by academicians, because buying products or services through SNS is in its infancy. With regard to research populations, it would be difficult to generalise the research findings in Korea, owing to unbalanced respondent distribution. Considering the above research limitations as well as the growth of social shopping, many authors should pay considerable attention to SNS-related issues in the future, and develop the more sophisticated criteria to measure the characteristics of SNS shoppers.
