Automotive transmission systems are assembled with a large number of gears and shafts, and rolling bearings are used to ensure their smooth operation. Gear oil in the gear box contains solid particles such as wear debris from contacting gears and metallic chips. This particle-enriched lubricating oil can cause premature failure of the rolling bearings. Research aimed at improving the service life of these rolling bearings has been confined mainly to design and lubrication of the inner/outer rings and the rolling elements. In this paper, we redesigned the shape of the cage pocket of a deep groove ball bearing to reduce the premature failure due to particle contamination. Test bearings are assembled with this new cage design containing a hole punched in the cage pocket. Endurance tests are carried out using the contaminated lubricating oil with miracle grid as hard particle. The duration and damaged bearing component shapes are compared for two different cages. The B₁₀ life of bearing with new cage is increased by about 66% compared to the conventional cage. This is because the hard particles can be easily discharged through the pocket hole without staying for a long time in the lubrication regions. This greatly decreases abrasive wear and dents on the highly stressed ball bearing surfaces. Therefore, the cage design of this study, containing a pocket hole, can significantly delay the premature failure of rolling bearings and improve the endurance life.

NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ phosphor thin films were grown on quartz substrates by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering at a growth temperature of 100 ℃, with subsequent annealing at temperatures of 800, 900, and 1000 ℃. The effects of annealing temperature on the structural, morphological, and optical properties of the thin films were investigated. The NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ sputtering target was synthesized by a solid-state reaction of raw materials Na₂CO₃, Nb₂O₅, and Eu₂O₃. The X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited that the thin films had two mixed phases of NaNbO₃ and Eu₂O₃. Surface morphologies were investigated by using field emission-scanning electron microscopy and indicated that the grains of the thin film annealed at 1000 ℃ showed irregular shapes with an average size of approximately 300 nm. The excitation spectra of Eu³⁺-doped NaNbO₃ thin film consisted of a strong charge transfer band centered at 304 nm in the range of 240-350 nm and two weak peaks at 395 and 462 nm, respectively, resulting from the ⁷F₀→⁵L₆ and ⁷F₀→⁵H₂ transitions of Eu³⁺ ions. The emission spectra under excitation at 304 nm exhibited an intense red band centered at 614 nm and two weak bands at 592 and 681 nm. As the annealing temperature increased from 800 ℃ to 1000 ℃, the intensities of all the emission bands and the band gap energies gradually increased. These results indicate that the higher annealing temperature enhance the luminescent properties of NaNbO₃:Eu³⁺ thin films.

In this study, a process is developed for 3D printing with alumina ($Al_2O_3$). First, a photocurable slurry made from nanoparticle $Al_2O_3$ powder is mixed with hexanediol diacrylate binder and phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide photoinitiator. The optimum solid content of $Al_2O_3$ is determined by measuring the rheological properties of the slurry. Then, green bodies of $Al_2O_3$ with different photoinitiator contents and UV exposure times are fabricated with a digital light processing (DLP) 3D printer. The dimensional accuracy of the printed $Al_2O_3$ green bodies and the number of defects are evaluated by carefully measuring the samples and imaging them with a scanning electron microscope. The optimum photoinitiator content and exposure time are 0.5 wt% and 0.8 s, respectively. These results show that $Al_2O_3$ products of various sizes and shapes can be fabricated by DLP 3D printing.

ZnSe 양자점을 AOT 마이크로에멀전을 이용해서 제조하였으며, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS)를 직접 주입하는 방법으로 실리카에 담지된 ZnSe 양자점 소재를 얻었다. 양자점이 실리카에 담지되었을 때, 상대적으로 고른 구 형태의 ZnSe 양자점을 얻을 수 있었고 그 크기는 약 7 nm이었다. 아울러 마이크로에멀전상의 ZnSe 양자점이 실리카에 담지되면 photoluminescence 효율은 8%에서 1.1%로 감소하였다. 그러나 금표면에 실리카에 담지된 ZnSe 고체 박막을 형성시켰을 때, 양자점의 광학안정성은 크게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 특히 ZnSe 양자점은 카드뮴이 없어 독성이 작으며 기존의 ZnSe 제조 시 Se 전구체로 사용하는 맹독성의 $H_2Se$ 가스나 높은 반응 온도를 필요로 하지 않는다. 따라서 바이오센서용 등으로 사용이 가능한 실리카에 담지된 ZnSe 양자점을 안전하고 경제적인 방법으로 생산할 수 있는 방법을 제시할 수 있었다.

Sound absorbing materials are being developed in various materials and shapes and they are being applied in many fields such as construction, transportation, civil engineering, and sound. Among many sound-absorbing materials, polyester fiber has no environmental problems and harmfulness, and is a material with good sound absorption properties while being inexpensive. So it is manufactured as a nonwoven sound-absorbing material and used in various fields. In this study, polyester dry-laid nonwoven with different basis weight were manufactured using three types of polyester staple fibers: regular solid, single-hole hollow, and low linear density. We focused on the effects of the properties of the fibers, which constitute nonwovens, on the sound absorption properties, and we considered the basis weight. As the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric increased, the pore size became smaller and the air permeability was lowered, but the sound absorption coefficient was higher. However, the single-hole hollow polyester fiber did not contribute to the increase of the sound absorption coefficient of the nonwoven. It was established that, lower fiber fineness caused the sound absorption coefficient of the nonwoven to be increased. It was also found that the increase in the sound absorption coefficient due to the application of low fineness appeared from a certain basis weight or more.

To analyze recent changes in designer-specific garment composition, detail, and design elements of jackets, we classified jackets from the Paris Haute Couture Collection from 2000 S/S to 2019 F/W according to their designers and examined their characteristics. Our analysis of the jackets by Armani, Chanel, Dior, Jean-Paul Gaultier, and Valentino shows that the hour-glass silhouette was most common in Armani, Chanel, Dior, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Valentino jackets; Chanel used more straight silhouettes compared to other designers. Most jackets, regardless of the designer, had midlength waist-to-bottom, tight sleeves fitted to the body, natural shoulder shape, and solid color. Moreover, woven fabric was the most common material. Jackets with no collar were the most common for Armani, tailored collars for Dior and Jean-Paul Gaultier, and standing collars for Chanel and Valentino. For the closure method, Armani used hook-and-eye, Chanel, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Valentino used button closures, and Dior used snap closures the most. New design attempts by designers are bringing details and design elements together. In an era characterized by an abundance of designs and frequent replacement of each brand's creative designers, it is important to create and maintain a brand's unique design identity and philosophy that can meet consumers' elevated standards, which tend to be biased towards new and stimulating designs due to the development of the IT industry.

The accuracy of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in estimating the computed tomography radiation dose is highly dependent on the accuracy of CT scanner model. A system was developed to observe the 3D model intuitively and to calculate the X-ray energy spectrum and the bowtie (BT) filter model more accurately in Monte Carlo N-particle (MCNP). Labview's built-in Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) was used to display basic surfaces, and constructive solid geometry (CSG) method was used to realize Boolean operations. The energy spectrum was calculated by simulating the process of electronic shooting and the BT filter model was accurately modeled based on the calculated shape curve. Physical data from a study was used as an example to illustrate the accuracy of the constructed model. RMSE between the simulation and the measurement results were 0.97% and 0.74% for two filters of different shapes. It can be seen from the comparison results that to obtain an accurate CT scanner model, physical measurements should be taken as the standard. The energy spectrum library should be established based on Monte Carlo simulations with modifiable input files. It is necessary to use the three-segment splicing modeling method to construct the bowtie filter model.

백합나무(yellow poplar)는 기후변화의 주범인 이산화탄소의 흡수율이 매우 뛰어나고 오존흡수율도 뛰어나 저탄소 녹생성장 시대에 적합한 수종이다. 속성수인 백합나무는 구조용 부재로의 성능은 약간 부족하지만 가구재나 내장재, 합판용재 등 다양한 용도로 활용가능한 수종이다. 본 연구에서는 백합나무를 이용하여 대단면 스킨팀버를 개발하고 압축 성능을 평가하였으며 다양한 용도 개발을 위해 수치해석 모델을 개발하였다. 정각형 스킨팀버는 소재에 대해 56.3%의 잔존 강도를 보여서 우수한 성능을 나타내었으며 원통형 스킨팀버의 경우 잔존면적율이 25%임에도 불구하고 소재에 대해 50% 가까운 압축 성능을 나타내어 가구용 뿐만 아니라 대단면 재료로써 다양한 쓰임새가 가능함을 보여주었다. 정각형과 원통형 모두 Brooming or end rolling이 주요 파괴모드로 나타났으며 부분적으로 splitting 파괴 모드도 나타났다. 잔존면적률이 큰 정각형 스킨팀버의 압축성능이 원통형 스킨팀버보다 높게 나타났지만 두 집단간에 압축성능에 있어 통계적 유의성은 보이지 않아 사용자의 편의대로 혼용하여 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 수치해석 모델은 실제 압축성능 실험과 상당히 유사한 결과를 보였다. 따라서 다양한 형태와 치수에 대한 수치해석 모델 적용을 통해 백합나무 스킨팀버의 다양한 용도 개발에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
