Tungsten and tungsten heavy alloys have widespread application as radiation shielding devices and heavy duty electrical contacts. High density and good room temperature mechanical properties have generated interest in evaluating tungsten and tungsten alloys as kinetic energy penetrators against armor. Nowdays ultra fine-grained tungsten powders are in great interest because higly dense structures can be obtained at low temperature, pressure and lower sintering time. Several physical md chemical methods are available for the synthesis of nanometric metal Powders: ball milling, laser abalation, vapor condensation, chemical precipitation, metallic wire explosion i.e. However production rates of the above mentioned methods are low and further efforts are needed to find out large-scale synthesis methods. From this point of view solid state combustion method ( known as SHS) represents undoubted interest.

The decommissioning project of the KRR 1 & 2 was started in January 1997. The actual decommissioning activity was started at the RI production facility and was finished at the end of 2002. The dismantling works of all components including the reactor structure of the KRR-2 was started in January, 2003 and will be carried out for 2 years till the end of 2004. The project schedule is estimated to delay for 4∼5 months beyond the original plan because of delaying on the cutting of thermal column nose and removal of the graphite bricks, but it may be caught up during the removal working of concrete from biological shielding structure. This paper summarizes the general status of the KRR 1 & 2 and decommissioning activities.

The existing compressor steel seal used in automotive air-conditioner has the problem of oil leakage and deterioration in shielding performance, due to the abrasion and corrosion of the material. A new type of polymer resin seal studied in this research has the characteristics of high anti-abrasiveness and anti-corrosiveness, which can oversome the defects of the steel seal. In addition, the seal needs lower manufacturing cost and is appropriate to mass production, because it is made by the injection molding method requiring no mechanical processing. The profile generation program for seal mold has been developed using the gradient method, and the molding characteristics of the seal have analyzed through the flow analysis and the warpage analysis. The program has been verified by comparing the analysis results with the measured data of the test product. The research might be said to provide the basic method to produce the polymer resin seals with various types and dimensions.

방사선 치료는 고에너지 X선을 최소 20 Gy에서 80 Gy까지 다양하게 조사되기 때문에 종양이 위치하는 국소부위에 고선량을 투여하며 일부 정상조직의 여러 부작용이 예상 된다. 현재 임상에서는 정상조직의 차폐를 위한 노력으로 대표적인 재료인 납을 사용하고 있지만 납은 인체에 유해한 중금속으로 분류되고 있으며 다량의 피부접촉은 중독을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 FDM(Fused Deposition Modeling)방식의 3차원 프린터의 재료 Tungsten, Brass, Copper을 이용하여 납의 한계점을 보완 할 수 있는 측정시트를 제작하고 투과성능을 알아보고자 한다. 3D 프린터를 이용해 Tungsten 혼합 필라멘트 투과측정 시트 크기는 70 × 70 mm, 두께는 1, 2, 4 mm로 제작하였으며 제작한 측정시트의 투과성능을 확인하기 위해 선형가속기 (TrueBeam STx, S/N: 1187)에서 발생된 6, 15 MV을 Water Phantom과 Ion chamber (FC-65G), elcetrometer (PTW UNIDOSE)을 사용하여 SSD 100 cm, 물 속 5 cm에서 100 MU를 조사하여 측정하고 투과성능을 평가하였다. 각 소재의 측정시트를 1 mm씩 증가시킨 결과 6 MV에서는 Tungsten 시트의 경우 3.8~3.9 cm일때의 시트는 기존 납의 차폐체 두께 6.5 cm 보다 얇으며, 15 MV에서는 Tungsten 시트의 경우 4.5~4.6 cm일 때 시트는 기존 납의 차폐체 두께 7 cm 보다 얇으며 동등한 성능을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 Tungsten 합금 필라멘트을 이용하여 제작한 투과측정 시트는 고에너지 영역에서의 투과 차폐 가능성을 확인하였으며. 대체품으로써의 사용가능성 또한 우수함을 확인하였다, 향후 3D 프린팅 기술로 차폐제 제작을 위한 기초자료로 제공할 수 있을 것으로 사료 된다.

This research was conducted as a fundamental study to apply tailored blank welding technique into automotive production process. Specially we tried to apply the TWB technique to exhaust system. The materials used in this work were ferritic 439 stainless steel sheet with a thickness of 1.2mm and 0.8mm. Welding tests were conducted for BOP test and dissimilar thickness (0.8 to 1.2t) cases. Major process parameters were position of focus, travel speed, shielding gas and joint (gap) condition. As a result, there are nothing significant welding characteristic compare with TWB of carbon steel. Stainless steel shows the good weldability and mechanical properties (tensile, hardness and forming strength) also shows high level. Just problem is gap condition. However, also in this case, it shows not only good forming strength but also base metal fracture after tensile test. And to conclude, it is good opportunity to make lightweight design muffler using TB welding technique.

Side-by-side offloading operations are widely utilized in engineering practice. The hydrodynamic interactions between two vessels play a crucial role in safe operation. This study focuses on the coupled effects between two floating bodies positioned side-by-side as a shuttle tanker-FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) system. Several wave directions with different side-by-side distances are studied in order to obtain the variation tendency of the horizontal hydrodynamic coefficients, motion responses and mean drift forces. It is obtained that the coupled hydrodynamics between two vessels is evidently distinguished from the single body case with shielding and exaggerating effects, especially for sway and yaw directions. The resonance frequency and the peak amplitude are closely related with side-by-side separation distance. In addition, the horizontal hydrodynamics of the shuttle tanker is more susceptible to coupled effects in beam waves. It is suggested to expand the gap distance reasonably in order to reduce the coupled drift forces effectively. Attention should also be paid to the second peaks caused by hydrodynamic coupling. Since the horizontal mean drift forces are the most mainly concerned forces to be counteracted in dynamic positioning (DP) system and mooring system, prudent prediction is beneficial in saving consumed power of DP system and reducing tension of mooring lines.

It is a well known fact that the LCD and Semiconductor Devices are a central part of IT industry which is important in the present and the future. But the biggest problem of Semiconductor and LCD manufacturing is maintaining a cleaning room environment. For this reason, the soft X-ray type Ionizer was used as the electrostatic reducer device, which protects damage of the product against electrostatic discharge in the manufacturing process. Therefore it is a essential important factor during Semiconductor and LCD production process. But the soft X-ray has a intrinsic problem with harmful to human being in case of soft X-ray exposure. That's reason we have the research to solve above problem and made an apparatus that it was covered with shielding structure to protect X-ray radiation to outside. And besides, it has a possibility to eliminate the charged electrostatic in the narrow space through the slot for Ion emissions with dual soft X-ray sources on the both side. It is also not make the particles from itself when it has been operated.

본 연구에서는 NaI검출기에서 감마스펙트럼 시뮤레이션 코드인 GESS를 개발하였다. 감마선에 의한 모든 상호작용이 시뮤레이션 과정에서 고려되었으며, 생성된 하전입자의 스펙트럼은 CSDA 모델에 기반을 두어 계산하였다. 매질내에서 입자 수송에 대한 해석수단으로는 몬테칼로 방법을 적용하였다. 코드의 검증을 위하여 1.33MeV의 입사 감마선에 대한 스펙트럼이 본 연구에서 개발된 코드에 의해 계산되었으며, 계산된 스펙트럼은 대체적으로 실험에서 얻은 스펙트럼과 거의 동일한 분포를 나타내고 있다.

A future nuclear energy system is being developed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), the system involves a Sodium Fast Reactor (SFR) linked with the pyro-process. The pyro-process produces a source material to fabricate a SFR fuel rod. Therefore, an isotopic fissile content assay is very important for fuel rod safety and SFR economics. A new technology for an analysis of isotopic fissile content has been proposed using a lead slowing down spectrometer (LSDS). The new technology has several features for a fissile analysis from spent fuel: direct isotopic fissile assay, no background interference, and no requirement from burnup history information. Several calculations were done on the designed spectrometer geometry: detection sensitivity, neutron energy spectrum analysis, neutron fission characteristics, self shielding analysis, and neutron production mechanism. The spectrum was well organized even at low neutron energy and the threshold fission chamber was a proper choice to get prompt fast fission neutrons. The characteristic fission signature was obtained in slowing down neutron energy from each fissile isotope. Another application of LSDS is for an optimum design of the spent fuel storage, maximization of the burnup credit and provision of the burnup code correction factor. Additionally, an isotopic fissile content assay will contribute to an increase in transparency and credibility for the utilization of spent fuel nuclear material, as internationally demanded.
