The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of turbo chargers on engines for off-road use when combined with WGT and VGT technologies. The effectiveness of turbo chargers was measured and performance was compared using a functional model. Exhaust characteristics were compared using WGT and VGT technologies through a gas analyzer. Results showed VGT technology was more effective at high RPM compared to WGT technology. When it came to maximising turbo performance, VGT was more effective than WGT in every test. WGT and VGT produced similar exhaust NOx levels, whereas the VGT was more effective on the PM.

Globally, many researchers have been trying to improve the fuel economy of a vehicle for satisfying future $CO_2$ regulation and minimizing air pollution problem. For the same background, diesel engine and vehicle system optimization using simulation models have been key technologies for the improvement of vehicle system efficiency. Therefore, in this study, calibration method for the air breathing system of a WGT diesel engine using mean value model has been composed for efficient engine and vehicle optimization simulation researches. And virtual WGT performances have been calculated for a 2 cylinder downsized diesel engine system. From these researches, the calibration method for the boost pressure and EGR rate of a virtual diesel engine related with WGT performances could be composed and some of technical issue related with downsized diesel engine could be investigated.

OLED(organic light emitting diode)는 차세대 평판 디스플레이로 전자종이, 입는 디스플레이 등 flexible한 디스플레이로도 주목받고 있다. 하지만, OLED의 가장 큰 단점 중의 하나가 수분과 산소에 매우 민감하다는 것으로 이것은 OLED의 lifetime과 연결된다. 따라서 이에 대한 mechanism의 확립이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, flexible한 OLED에 적용되는 금속 코팅막의 적층구조 및 기판의 노출온도에 따른 금속 코팅막의 수분침투 특성에 대해 MOCON의 weight gain test (WGT)를 통해 barrier layer에 대해 평가하고 이에 대한 mechanism을 확립하는데 그 목적이 있다. 금속 코팅막은 OLED의 cathode와 anode 재료로 많이 사용되는 Al과 ITO를 sputter장비를 이용해 single layer와 multi-layer의 두 가지 구조로 PET기판에 증착하였다. 또한, 노출온도에 따른 특성을 알아보고자 bare PET / ITO coated PET(single layer $50{\mu}m$) / Al coated PET(single layer $200{\mu}m$)의 세 가지 시편을 제작하였다. 이 시편을 각각 $25^{\circ}C$, $37.8^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 test를 진행하였고 이 과정을 100%RH, 70%RH, 40%RH조건의 수분조건에서 진행하여 각각의 수분조건에서 각각의 온도에 따른 금속 코팅막의 수분침투 특성에 대한 mechanism을 확립하였다. 적층구조에 따른 수분침투 특성 평가 결과 multi-layer가 single layer보다 더 우수한 수분침투의 barrier 특성을 나타냈었다. 그리고 각 온도에 따른 test결과 온도가 증가할수록 barrier의 특성이 나빠짐이 보였다.

Recently, the application of variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) to the high speed direct injection (HSDI) diesel engine has gained more and more interest in automotive industry. A steady state experimental investigation has been undertaken on a 1.5L HSDI diesel engine to verify the benefits of VGT comparing to the standard engine having a waste gate turbocharger (WGT). Specifically, part load performances (e.g., fuel economy and emission) have been investigated under various vane angles of the VGT. The results show that the real exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate as well as the pumping loss is very important to improve break specific fuel consumption (BSFC). It was previously known that the pumping loss only is a main parameter. In addition, the trade-off relationship between BSFC and NOx according to boost pressure, and the decreasing tendency of NOx with increasing real EGR rate have been verified. 1-D numerical analysis also has been performed, and the numerical results are in good agreement with experimental results.

In general, transportation sources include both on-road vehicles and off-road equipment. Off-road vehicles have usually used diesel engines, which have the disadvantage of high NOx emission. Common rail direct injection (CRDI) and after-treatment systems have been applied to meet the exhaust gas emission regulations for diesel vehicles. In the present, agricultural machinery has satisfied the Tier 3 emission regulations by using waste gate turbocharger (WGT) and internal exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). In this paper, the combustion and emission characteristics of an EGR system applied to a 56kW off-road vehicle in non-road transient cycle (NRTC) mode have been investigated. The EGR map was made from foundation experiments determining the EGR duty for all engine operating conditions, and then this map was applied to the NRTC mode. Consequently, the NOx emission was reduced by the EGR system, and the Tier 4 interim emission regulations were satisfied by using both the EGR system and an after-treatment system.

In order to estimate field seedling emergence and grain yield by the information collected from various laboratory seed vigor tests, each two malting and naked barley cultivar seeds were artificially aged according to the standard aging treatment suggested by the Association of Official Seed Analysts. The seed vigor tests adopted were warm- and cold-germination test, tetrazolium vigor test and electrocon. ductivity test. Field emergence of malting barley (Y) was estimated by Y=-2.962+0.229X$_1$ (% warm germination) -0.001X$_2$ (vigor of warm germination test: WGT) +0.354X$_3$ (vigor of cold germination test: CT) -0.558X$_4$ (% cold germination). The multiple correlation coefficient indicated that % warm germination. was contributed 64 % of the variation in seedling emergence rate of malting barley. The vigor of warm and cold germination tests, and % cold germination contributed additional 4, 7, and 9%, respectively, upon addition of the variables into regression. For naked barley, the regression equation of emergence rate was less efficient(R$^2$=54%) than that of malting barley(R$^2$=84%). A model to predict grain yield by the results of various seed vigor tests was not evaluated for both malting and naked barlev.

The turbocharger, to decrease the harmful exhaust gas(CO, HC and etc.) and $CO_2$ emission as well as the increase of the engine output, would be an useful method for engine downsizing. Therefore the thermal endurance of turbine blade, the lubrication of turbine shaft and the engine knock according to the supercharge of the inlet air, had been studied. And there had been much progress in these research tasks to be achieved a breakthrough. But a study on the built-in WGV of a gasoline engine for a passenger car which may effect on the engine performance, is few. In this paper, the effect of the embedded WGV on the engine performance was performed through the endurance test, which was conducted more than 300 hrs using the 4 stroke, 1998 cc, water-cooled engine. To sum up the major results, there were an abrasion in the area of the WGV head edge and the thermal deformation on the WGV head face, These phenomena led to reducing the boost pressure which caused the reduction in the volumetric efficiency of the engine. It resulted in decreasing the engine power gradually during the life cycle of the embedded WGV.

Nickel-phosphorus alloys are attractive materials for diamond turning applications such as fabrication of large optics and other high precision parts. It is also well-known that the higher phosphorus content of the alloys minimizes the diamond tool wear. Due to the weakness of electoless nickel plating that the phosphorus contents is limited to 13-14% (wgt), increased attention has been paid at electro-nickel plating which enables the alloys with 15-16% phosphorus. In this study, experiments were carried out to observe the wear characteristic of single crystal diamond tools in micro-grooving of electro-nickel plated drums. The experiments shows that long distance (50km) machining of micro-grooving on electro-nickel plated drum is possible with a single crystal diamond tool without any significant tool wear and defective machined surface.

OLED(organic light emitting diode)는 액정디스플레이를 대체할 차세대 평판디스플레이로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 OLED의 기판재료는 Glass기판이지만 차세대 Flexible한 display에서의 적용을 위해서는 가볍고 유연한 plastic을 기판 재료로 사용 할 것으로 보인다. 하지만 plastic이 기판재료로 된 OLED의 가장 큰 단점중의 하나가 수분과 산소에 민감하여 열화를 초래한다는 것이다. 이런 수분침투와 열화 과정으로 인해 OLED의 발광효과가 약해져 OLED의 수명과 직접적으로 연결된다. 하여 외부에서 OLED내부로 유입되는 산소, 수분으로 부터 발광재료와 전극의 산화를 방지하며 외부의 충격으로부터 소자를 보호하기 위한 봉지기술은 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, flexible한 OLED에 적용되는 금속 코팅한 막의 적층구조 및 기판의 노출온도에 따른 금속 코팅막의 수분침투 특성에 대해 MOCON의 weight gain test (WGT)를 통해 barrier layer에 대해 평가하고 이에 대한 mechanism을 확립하는데 그 목적이 있다. 금속을 코팅한 막은 OLED의 cathode와 anode 재료로 많이 사용되는 Al과 ITO를 sputter장비를 이용해 single layer와 double-layer의 두 가지 구조로 PET기판에 증착하였다. 증착한 Al막의 두께는 각각 50 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 400 nm 등 4가지로 하였다. double-layer의 경우에는 총 두께를 절반씩 기판의 양쪽에 증착하였다. 적층구조에 따른 수분침투 특성 평가 결과로 보면 같은 두께일 때 double-layer는 single layer에 비해서 모든 시편에서 수분의 투습율이 낮음으로써 더 좋은 수분침투의 barrier 특성을 나타내었다. 특히 100 nm이상인 경우 투습율은 예상한 값보다 50%이상 낮게 나타났다.
