Spot welding is a very important and useful technology in fabrication of thin sheet structures such as the parts in an automobile. However, because the fatigue strength of the spot welding point is considerably lower than that of the base metal due to stress concentration at the nugget edge, the nugget size must be estimated to evaluate a reasonable fatigue strength at a spot welded lap joint. So far, many investigators have experimentally studied the estimation of fatigue strengths of various spot weldments by using a destructive method. However, these destructive methods poses problems so testing of weldments by these methods are difficult. Furthermore, these methods cannot be applied to a real product, and are time and cost consuming, as well. Therefore, there has been a strong, continual demand for the development of a nondestructive method for estimating nugget size. In this study, the effective nugget size in spot weldments have been analyzed by using thermoelastic stress analysis adopting infrared thermography. Using the results of the temperature distribution obtained by analysis of the infared stress due to adiabatic heat expansion under sinusoidal wave stresses, the effective nugget size in spot welded specimens were estimated. To examine the evaluated effective nugget size in spot weldments, it was compared with the results of microstructure observation from a 5％ Nital etching test.

본 연구에서는 폴리유산 나노복합재의 열탄성 거동을 예측하기 위해 분자동역학 전산모사를 수행하고 그 결과를 열탄성 미시역학 모델 예측해와 비교하였다. 폴리유산의 두 이성질체인 D유산(Poly D-lactide)와 L유산(Poly L-lactide)을 혼합한 스테레오 콤플렉스를 모델링하였고 이들을 기지로 사용한 탄소나노튜브 나노복합재를 구성하였다. 유산의 분해 유무에 따른 유리전이온도와 탄성계수 그리고 열팽창계수를 앙상블 전산모사를 통해 예측하였다. 미시역학 모델에서는 계면의 완전 결합을 가정한 이중입자 모델을 적용하여 탄성계수와 열팽창계수를 동일한 조성에서 예측하였다. 그 결과 열적 안정성에 있어 스테레오 콤플렉스에 탄소나노튜브가 첨가될 경우 유산의 뛰어난 계면 흡착과 이에 따른 열적 안정성 향상을 보였다. 순수한 유산과 나노복합재 모두 가수 분해에 따른 열적 특성 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한, 스테레오 콤플렉스와 나노튜브 간 계면은 약한 불완전 결합상태 임을 알 수 있었다.

This paper investigates the vibration phenomenon of a nanobeam subjected to a time-dependent heat flux. Material properties of the nanobeam are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction according to a novel exponential distribution law in terms of the volume fractions of the metal and ceramic constituents. The upper surface of the functionally graded (FG) nanobeam is pure ceramic whereas the lower surface is pure metal. A nonlocal generalized thermoelasticity theory with dual-phase-lag (DPL) model is used to solve this problem. The theories of coupled thermoelasticity, generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time, and without energy dissipation can extracted as limited and special cases of the present model. An analytical technique based on Laplace transform is used to calculate the variation of deflection and temperature. The inverse of Laplace transforms are computed numerically using Fourier expansion techniques. The effects of the phase-lags (PLs), nonlocal parameter and the angular frequency of oscillation of the heat flux on the lateral vibration, the temperature, and the axial displacement of the nanobeam are studied.

A unified mathematical model of phase-lag Green-Naghdi magneto-thermoelasticty theories based on fractional derivative heat transfer for perfectly conducting media in the presence of a constant magnetic field is given. The GN theories as well as the theories of coupled and of generalized magneto-thermoelasticity with thermal relaxation follow as limit cases. The resulting nondimensional coupled equations together with the Laplace transforms techniques are applied to a half space, which is assumed to be traction free and subjected to a thermal shock that is a function of time. The inverse transforms are obtained by using a numerical method based on Fourier expansion techniques. The predictions of the theory are discussed and compared with those for the generalized theory of magneto-thermoelasticity with one relaxation time. The effects of Alfven velocity and the fractional order parameter on copper-like material are discussed in different types of GN theories.

The removal of contaminants of silicon wafers has been investigated by various methods. Laser cleaning is the new dry cleaning technique to replace wafer wet cleaning in the near future. A dry laser cleaning uses inert gas jet to remove contaminant particles lifted off by the action of a KrF excimer laser. A laser cleaning model is developed to simulate the cleaning process and analyze the influence of contaminant particles and experimental parameters on laser cleaning efficiency. The model demonstrates that various types of submicrometer-sized particles from the front sides of silicon wafer can be efficiently removed by laser cleaning. The laser cleaning is explained by a particle adhesion model. including van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding, and a particle removal model involving rapid thermal expansion of the substrate due to the thermoelastic effect. In addition, the experiment of wafer laser cleaning using KrF excimer laser was conducted to remove various contaminant particles.

The problem of generalized thermoelasticity of two-temperature for finite piezoelectric rod will be modified by applying three different types of heating applications namely, thermal shock, ramp-type heating and harmonically vary heating. The solutions will be derived with direct approach by the application of Laplace transform and the Caputo-Fabrizio fractional order derivative. The inverse Laplace transforms are numerically evaluated with the help of a method formulated on Fourier series expansion. The results obtained for the conductive temperature, the dynamical temperature, the displacement, the stress and the strain distributions have represented graphically using MATLAB.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to investigate the feasibility for the early diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis by the reconstruction of three-dimensional photoacoustic imaging with a tissue phantom. Methods: Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (l = 532 nm) was applied to a tissue phantom to generate photoacoustic waves, and the acquired photoacoustic signals at different positions around the sample were used to recombine the distribution of the optical absorption and the images were subsequently generated through a reconstruction algorithm. Results: From the acquired photoacoustic signals, the surface andinner core of the phantom was clearly distinguished. Furthermore, the back-projection algorithm was able to reconstruct two-dimensional and three-dimensional photoacoustic images that contained the optical absorption property information of the tissue phantom. Conclusion: The results indicate that the photoacoustic imaging technique has many advantages such as high optical contrast and high acoustic resolution. The acquired images can be used for the early diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis by the structural information obtained from the region of interest.

투명한 PMMA (Poly methyl methacrylate) 기판 위에 탄소나노튜브(Carbon Nanotube, CNT)와 PDMS (Poly dimethylsiloxane)를 코팅한 복합체에 레이저 펄스를 조사하면 열탄성효과에 의해 수중에 강한 초음파가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 그 초음파 발생과 관련한 열음향 이론을 정립하고, 가우시안 파형을 갖는 레이저 펄스를 두께가 $20{\mu}m$인 CNT/PDMS 복합체에 조사했을 때 어떤 파형의 초음파가 발생하는지를 시뮬레이션을 통해 파악하였다. 그 결과로부터 CNT/PDMS 복합체에서는 충격 초음파가 발생하며, 그 파의 형상은 복합체의 각종 물성 값이 ${\pm}20%$ 변하여도 크게 변하지 않는 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 정(+), 부(-)의 피크 값은 열팽창계수가 증가하거나 밀도, 열용량, 음속이 감소하면 증가하며, 열전도도에 대해서는 민감하게 변하지 않음을 알았다. 나아가, 직접 제작한 CNT/PDMS 복합체에서 방사되는 초음파의 측정 결과와 시뮬레이션 결과의 비교로부터 그 물성 값을 추정할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the dynamic response of functionally gradient steel (FGS) composite cylindrical panels in steady-state thermal environments subjected to impulsive loads is investigated for the first time. FGSs composed of graded ferritic and austenitic regions together with bainite and martensite intermediate layers are analyzed. Thermo-mechanical material properties of FGS composites are predicted according to the microhardness profile of FGS composites and approximated with appropriate functions. Based on the three-dimensional theory of thermo-elasticity, the governing equations of motionare derived in spatial and time domains. These equations are solved using the hybrid Fourier series expansion-Galerkin finite element method-Newmark approach for simply supported boundary conditions. The present solution is then applied to the thermo-elastic dynamic analysis of cylindrical panels with three different arrangements of material compositions of FGSs including ${\alpha}{\beta}{\gamma}M{\gamma}$, ${\alpha}{\beta}{\gamma}{\beta}{\alpha}$ and ${\gamma}{\beta}{\alpha}{\beta}{\gamma}$ composites. Benchmark results on the displacement and stress time-histories of FGS cylindrical panels in thermal environments under various pulse loads are presented and discussed in detail. Due to the absence of similar results in the specialized literature, this paper is likely to fill a gap in the state of the art of this problem, and provide pertinent results that are instrumental in the design of FGS structures under time-dependent mechanical loadings.
