In this study, a 20,000Hz ultrasonic horn was designed and fabricated using a finite element analysis. The horn's resonate frequency was 19,991Hz, and the harmonic response frequency was 20,000Hz. In order to observe the developed horn's performance, 4,000 pieces of displacement data were obtained using an optical sensor and were analyzed using a fast Fourier transform. Finally, the developed horn's resonate frequency was found to be 19,992Hz. The effect of the tip area of the developed horn on the weldability of a Cu sheet was experimentally investigated. It was found that the welding strengths of specimens welded using a small tip area were generally higherthan those of specimens welded using a large tip area.

This study was designed to investigate the stress distribution, intensity and force mechanism derived from the MEAW by photoelastic stress analysis of the artificial teeth and surrounding bone composed of photoelastic material(PL-3) The findings of this study were as follows, 1. In case of no elastic on the MEAW with tip back, the moderate stress was observed on the molar and canine area, and the light stress was observed on the other area. 2. In case of the vertical elastic on the plain A.W, and the MEAW without tip back, the great stress was observed on the lateral incisor area, but on the MEAW with tip back, the moderate stress was observed on the anterior area and molar area. 3. In case of the C III elastic on plain A.W., the stress was concentrated on the anterior area hanged by elastic but on the MEAW without tip back, the stress was transmitted equally from the anterior area to the posterior teeth area. On the MEAW with tip back, the great stress was observed on the anterior and molar area. 4. In case of the C III elastic on the plain A.W., the stress was concentrated on the posterior area hanged by elastic but on the MEAW without tip back, the stress was transmitted equally from the posterior area to the anterior area. On the MEAW with tip back, the great stress was observed on the posterior area and the moderate stress was observed on the anterior area.

The finite element method (FEM) is widely used to evaluate the seismic performance of pile-supported buildings. However, there are problems associated with modeling the pile end resistance using the FEM, such as the dependence on the mesh size. This paper proposes a new method of modeling around the pile tip to avoid the mesh size effect in two-dimensional (2D) analyses. Specifically, we consider the area of influence around the pile tip as an artificial constraint on the behavior of the soil. We explain the problems with existing methods of modeling the pile tip. We then conduct a three-dimensional (3D) analysis of a pile in various soil conditions to evaluate the area of influence of the soil around the pile tip. The analysis results show that the normalized area of influence extends approximately 2.5 times the diameter of the pile below the pile tip. Finally, we propose a new method for modeling pile foundations with artificial constraints on the nodal points within the area of influence. The proposed model is expected to be useful in the practical seismic design of pile-supported buildings via a 2D analysis.

Depth-sensing indentation is wifely used for evaluation of mechanical properties of thin films. It is generally accepted that the most significant source of uncertainty in nanoindentation measurement is the geometry of the indenter tip. Therefore the successful application of the technique requires accurate calibration of the indenter tip geometry. The direct measurement of geometry of a Berkovich indenter was determined using a atomic force microscope. The indentation geometrical calibration of contact area was performed by analyzing the indenter tip profile. The equations of area functions were proposed for nanoscale thin films..

In this study, by using nickel chloride solution as a raw material, a nano-sized nickel oxide powder with an average particle size below 50 nm was produced by spray pyrolysis reaction. A spray pyrolysis system was specially designed and built for this study. The influence of nozzle tip size on the properties of the produced powder was examined. When the nozzle tip size was 1 mm, the particle size distribution was more uniform than when other nozzle tip sizes were used and the average particle size of the powder was about 15 nm. When the nozzle tip size increases to 2 mm, the average particle size increases to roughly 20 nm, and the particle size distribution becomes more uneven. When the tip size increases to 3 mm, particles with an average size of 25 nm and equal to or less than 10 nm coexist and the particle size distribution becomes much more uneven. When the tip size increases to 5 mm, large particles with average size of 50 nm partially exist, mostly consisting of minute particles with average sizes in the range of 15~25 nm. When the tip size increases from 1 mm to 2 mm, the XRD peak intensities greatly increase while the specific surface area decreases. When the tip size increases to 3 mm, the XRD peak intensities decrease while the specific surface area increases. When the tip size increases to 5 mm, the XRD peak intensities increase again while the specific surface area decreases.

본 연구는 고주파 열치료 시 내부냉각방식 cool-tip의 냉각수 온도에 따른 소작 특성을 확인하기 위하여 소간을 이용하여 냉각수 온도변화에 따른 소간의 소작 특성의 변화를 통해 냉각수 온도변화와 소작 특성의 상관관계를 확인하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용된 소간은 2 cm cool-tip 사용 시 $4{\times}4{\times}4cm^3$, 3 cm인 cool-tip 사용 시에는 $6{\times}6{\times}6cm^3$로 소간을 절제하였으며, 소작된 소간은 MRI를 이용하여 영상검사를 실시하였으며, Freehand 기법으로 소작된 부위의 면적과 둘레를 측정하였다. 2 cm, 3 cm cool-tip을 사용하여 6분, 12분 소작 시 cool-tip 온도가 상승함에 따라 면적과 둘레는 감소함을 나타냈으며, cool-tip 온도와 면적 및 둘레의 상관관계는 통계학적으로 유의한 결과를 나타내었다(p=.000). 소작 범위에 대한 실제 측정과 MRI을 이용한 측정을 비교한 결과 MRI를 이용한 면적과 둘레 측정이 더 정확한 것을 확인하였으며, 대응표본 T-검정을 이용한 통계적 결과 또한 유의하였다(p=.038). 고주파 열치료 장비의 cool-tip 냉각수 온도가 증가함에 따라 소간의 소작 범위가 감소한 원인은 고주파 열치료 장비의 에너지가 정확히 전달되지 못하고 탄화가 발생하기 때문이다. 따라서 고주파 열치료에서 탄화의 발생을 줄이고, 고주파 에너지가 정확히 전달되어 치료 효과를 높이기 위해서는 냉각수의 온도를 낮은 온도로 일정하게 유지하여 사용하여야 고주파 열치료의 효과가 증대될 것이라 사료된다.

Surface energies calculated from measured contact angles between several solutions and test samples, such as Si wafer, $Al_2O_3$, $SiO_2$, PTFE(Polytertrafluoroethylene), and DLC(Diamond Like Carbon) films, based on geometric mean method and Lewis acid base method. In order to relate roughness to adhesion force, surface roughness of test samples were scanned large area and small by AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy). Roughness was representative of test samples in large scan area and comparable with AFM tip radius in small scan area. Adhesion forces between AFM tip and test samples were matched well with order of roughness rather then surface energy. When AFM tips having different radius were used to measure adhesion force on DLCI film, sharper AFM tip was, smaller adhesion force was measured. Therefore contact area was more important factor to determine adhesion force.

The bearing mechanism of pile during installation and loading process which controls the deformation and distribution of strain and stress in the soil surrounding pile tip is complex and full of much uncertainty. It is pointed out that particle crushing occurs in significant stress concentrated region such as the area surrounding pile tip. The solution to this problem requires the understanding and modeling of the mechanical behavior of granular soil under high pressures. This study aims to investigate the sand behavior around pile tip considering the characteristics of sand crushing. The numerical analysis of model pile loading test under different surcharge pressure with constitutive model for sand crushing is presented. This constitutive model is capable of predicting the dilatancy of soil from negative to positive under low confining pressure and only negative dilatancy under high confining pressure. The predicted relationships between the normalized bearing stress and normalized displacement are agreeable with the experimental results during the entire loading process. It is estimated from numerical results that the vertical stress beneath pile tip is up to 20 MPa which is large enough to cause sand to be crushed. The predicted distribution area of volumetric strain represents that the distributed area shaped wedge for volumetric contraction is beneath pile tip and distributed area for volumetric expansion is near the pile shaft. It is demonstrated that the finite element formulation incorporating a constitutive model for sand with crushing is capable of producing reasonable results for the pile loading problem.

노즐 목 근처에 설치된 핀틀 형상이 노즐 내부 유동과 추력에 미치는 영향을 공압 실험으로 고찰하여 제시하였다. 핀틀 이동으로 노즐 목 면적이 감소하면 연소실 압력은 부드럽게 상승하나 추력은 핀틀 형상에 따라 증가 패턴이 다르게 나타났다. 동일한 노즐 목과 연소실 압력 조건에서 추력은 전체적으로 핀틀 형상이 오목한 것 보다는 볼록한 것이 컸다. 노즐 벽면 압력과 핀틀에 작용하는 하중은 핀틀 형상은 물론 핀틀 위치 및 노즐 목면적에 따라 큰 차이를 보였다.

Image-based rendering is an approach to generate realistic images in real-time without modeling explicit 3D geometry, Especially, TIP(Tour Into the Picture) is preferred for its simplicity in constructing 3D background scene. However, TP has a limitation that a viewpoint cannot go far from the origin of the TIP for the lack of geometrical information. in this paper, we propose a method to interpolating the TIP images to generate smooth and realistic navigation. We construct multiple TIP models in a wide area of the virtual environment. Then we interpolate foreground objects and background object respectively to generate smooth navigation results.
