We have proposed a characteristic method to estimate real composition when multi component oxide films are deposited by ALD. Final atomic concentration ratio was theoretically calculated from the film densities and growth rates for $HfO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$ using ALD processed HfxAhOz mms.W e have transformed initial source feeding ratio during deposition to fins] atomic ratio in $Hf_xAl_yO_z$ films through thickness factors ($R_{HFO_2}$ ami $R_{Al_2O_3}$) ami concentration factor(C) defined in our experiments. Initial source feeding ratio could be transformed into the thickness ratio by each thickness factor. Final atomic ratio was calculated from thickness ratio by concentration factor. It has been successfully confirmed that the predicted atomic ratio was in good agreement with the actual measured value by ICP-MS analysis.

While developing physical prototype from CAD model, rapid prototyping mainly focuses on two key points reducing time and material consumption. So, we have to change from a traditional solid model to building a hollowed prototype. In this paper, a new method is presented to hollow out solid objects with uniform wall thickness to increase RP efficiency. To achieve uniform wall thickness, it is necessary to generate internal contour by slicing the offset model of an STL model. Due to many difficulties in this method, this paper proposes a new algorithm that computes internal contours computing offset model which is generated from external contour using wall thickness. Proposed method can easily compute the internal contour by slicing the offset surface defined by the sum of circle swept volumes of external contours without actual offset and the circle wept volumes. Internal contour existences are confirmed by using the external point. Presented algorithm uses the 2D geometric algorithm allowing RP implementation more efficient. Various examples have been tested with implementation of the algorithm, and some examples are presented for illustration.

Conventional ultrasonic thickness measurement is to be considered as the assumption that the ultrasonic velocity is known. In actual applications the velocity is often not well known and access is often limited to one side. This paper aims at determining the ultrasonic velocity and thickness of plates with parallel or wedged surfaces using contact measurements made on one surface only. For wedged plates the thickness at one point and the wedge angle are determined. Equations are used for determining the ultrasonic velocity, thickness and wedge angle of the plate based on the times-of-flight measured by two contact transducers coupled to one surface. The time-of-flight of the obliquely reflected longitudinal wave echo was measured as a function of the separation between the two transducers. In addition, a simulation was made for comparing the experimental data and a FEM image. Experiments and simulations were performed on flat and wedged plates of aluminium materials; the calculated results for the unknown quantities are generally agreed with them to some degree.

Polyethylene is widely used as the insulator for power cable. To investigate the conduction mechanism for power cable insulation under ac high field, it is very important to acquire the dissipation current under actual running field. Recently, we have developed the unique system, which make possible to observe the nonlinear dissipation current waveform. In this system, to observe the nonlinear properties with high accuracy, capacitive current component is canceled by using inverse capacitive current signal instead of using the bridge circuit for canceling it. As the results of these estimations, it was found that the dissipation current will depend on not only the instantaneous value of electric field but also the time differential of applied electric field due to taking a balance between applied field and internal field. Furthermore, two large peaks of dissipation current for each half cycle were observed under certain condition. In this paper, to clarify the reason why it shows two peaks for each half cycle, the film thickness dependences of dissipation current waveforms were observed by using the three different thickness LDPE films.

Recently, the necessity for more accurate automatic gauge control has increased of customers' requirement for cold rolled steel sheets with thinner gauge and better gauge quality. Therefore, many cold rolling mills replaced its electric screw down automatic gauge control system with a new hydraulic automatic gauge control system, to ensure closer gauge tolerance. In this paper, The performance of a hydraulic automatic gauge control system for cold rolling has been investigated under industrial conditions. It was investigated that variation of gauge deviation according to the final products thickness, cold rolling speed and pass number, in the actual rolling mill. As a result, it was found that the system enables strip thickness variation to be reduced substantially and caused by poor gauge deviation have been drastically decreased. The test results are as following. The more the exit steel strip thickness is thick, the smaller the aguge deviation rate is large, and the more it is thin, the large the gauge deviation rate is large. Because the gauge deviation is larger at accleration speed and deceleration speed than steady speed, so automatic gauge control system is better to adopt over 50m/min. automatic gauge control system reduces rapidly large thickness deviation.

In this paper, we present the results of the wear analysis of journal bearings on a stripped-down single-cylinder engine during start-up and coast-down by motoring. We calculate journal bearing wear by using a modified specific wear rate considering the fractional film defect coefficient and load-sharing ratio for the asperity portion of a mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) regime coupled with previously presented graphical data of experimental lifetime linear wear in radial journal bearings. Based on the calculated wear depth, we obtain a new oil film thickness for every crank angle. By examination of the oil film thickness, we determine whether the oil film thickness at the wear scar region is in a mixed lubrication regime by comparing dimensionless oil film thickness, h/σ, to 3.0 at every crank angle. We present the lift-off speed and the crank angles involved with the wear calculation for bearings #1 and #2. The dimensionless oil film thickness, h/σ, illustrates whether the lubrication region between the two surfaces is still within the bounds of the mixed lubrication regime after scarring of the surface by wear. In addition, we present in tables the asperity contact pressure, the real minimum film thickness at the wear scar region, the modified specific wear rate, and the wear angle, α, for bearings #1 & #2. To show the real shape of the oil film at wear scar region, we depict the actual oil film thickness in graphs. We also tabulated the ranges of bearing angles related with wear scar. We present the wear volume for bearings #1 and #2 after one turn-on and turn-off of the engine ignition switch for five kinds of equivalent surface roughness. We show that the accumulated wear volume after a single turn-on and turn-off of an ignition switch normally increases with increasing surface roughness, with a few exceptions.

일반 X-선 검사는 간단하고 많은 정보를 얻을 수 있어 가장 기본이 되는 검사방법이며 획득된 영상에서는 인체 해부학적 구조와 시간 경과에 따른 질병의 변화 정보를 쉽게 획득할 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 영상이 확대되는 단점으로 인하여 병변의 크기와 형태가 왜곡되어 나타나기 때문에 현재 X-선 영상의 깊이 있는 관찰은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 후전촬영(PA)과 측방향촬영(LAT) 영상을 획득하고 각각의 영상에서 암 시료가 위치하는 거리를 측정하여 암 시료의 확대율을 계산하고 측정한 암 시료 길이에 보정한다. 암 시료의 길이와 두께에 따른 확대율 보정 값을 전산화단층촬영장치(Computed Tomography, CT)로 획득된 영상 및 실제 제작한 암 시료 크기와 각각 비교하였다. 기존의 확대율은 검출기에서 암의 거리를 측정하여 계산할 수 있었으나 본 연구에서는 획득된 PA와 LAT 영상을 이용하여 확대율을 계산하였다. 6 mm 암 시료를 PA와 LAT 영상을 획득하여 확대율을 구한 후 보정한 결과 길이는 5.9 mm, 두께는 6.1mm로 실제와 비슷한 값이 측정되었으며 영상을 이용한 확대율 계산이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. X-선 영상만으로도 병변의 확대율을 손쉽게 보정하여 정확한 길이 측정이 가능하고 이는 영상 판독 및 정확한 진단에 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이다.

In crystalline solar cells, the substrate itself constitutes a large portion of the fabrication cost as it is derived from semiconductor ingots grown in costly high temperature processes. Thinner wafer substrates allow some cost saving as more wafers can be sliced from a given ingot, although technological limitations in slicing or sawing of wafers off an ingot, as well as the physical strength of the sliced wafers, put a lower limit on the substrate thickness. Complementary to these economical and techno-physical points of view, a device operation point of view of the substrate thickness would be useful. With this in mind, BC-BJ Si and GaAs solar cells are compared one to one by means of the Medici device simulation, with a particular emphasis on the substrate thickness. Under ideal conditions of 0.6 ${\mu}m$ photons entering the 10 ${\mu}m$-wide BC-BJ solar cells at the normal incident angle (${\theta}=90^{\circ}$), GaAs is about 2.3 times more efficient than Si in terms of peak cell power output: 42.3 $mW{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ vs. 18.2 $mW{\cdot}cm^{-2}$. This strong performance of GaAs, though only under ideal conditions, gives a strong indication that this material could stand competitively against Si, despite its known high material and process costs. Within the limitation of the minority carrier recombination lifetime value of $5{\times}10^{-5}$ sec used in the device simulation, the solar cell power is known to be only weakly dependent on the substrate thickness, particularly under about 100 ${\mu}m$, for both Si and GaAs. Though the optimum substrate thickness is about 100 ${\mu}m$ or less, the reduction in the power output is less than 10% from the peak values even when the substrate thickness is increased to 190 ${\mu}m$. Thus, for crystalline Si and GaAs with a relatively long recombination lifetime, extra efforts to be spent on thinning the substrate should be weighed against the expected actual gain in the solar cell output power.

경수형 원자로의 운전과 안전성 해석을 위해 열수력학적 모형을 개발하는 것이 하나의 중요한 과제이다. 특히, 2상류의 열수력학적 모형을 개발하기 위해서는 기포율, 액체막 두께, 유동 영역과 같은 중요한 변수들을 실제로 측정한 값이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 초음파 Pulse-echo 방법을 이용하여 액체 두께를 실험적으로 측정하고, 이론치와 비교 분석하여 (1) 관벽의 두께, (2) 초음파의 주파수, (3) 관벽의 재질 등이 액체막 두께 측정에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 데에 있다. 평판협 (Plate-type)과 관(Tube-type)으로 된 시험관을 이용하여 수평으로 놓인 물-공기의 층류계 (a horizontal airwater stratified system)를 만들어 일련의 액체막 두께 측정 실험을 수행하였다. 시험관의 벽 두께와 초음파 Pulse-echo 의 주파수를 변화시키면서 액체막 두께 측정을 반복하였다. 또한, 관벽의 acoustic impedance가 초음파 Pulse-echo 방법으로 액체막 두께를 측정할 때, 어떠한 영향을 주는가도 아울러 파악하기 위해서 스텐레스 강과 폴리아크릴 (Polyacrylate) 등 재질이 다른 두 개의 격리봉 (Standonff rod) 을 사용하여 액체막 두께를 측정하였다. 이렇게 하여 얻은 실험 결과를 제시하고 실제로 측정한 액체막 두께와 비교 분석하였다.

본 연구에서는 3개의 공용중인 NATM터널에서 수행된 정밀안전진단 GPR탐사 결과로 라이닝 두께분포 및 배면상태 특성을 분석하였다. 라이닝 천장에서 실시한 GPR 자료분석으로 라이닝 콘크리트와 1차지보재 사이에 공간이 대부분 존재하는 것으로 분석되었다. 다수의 라이닝 종단탐사로 분석된 횡단 두께의 좌 우 불균형은 8.6~253.5 mm로 확인되었으며 급격한 두께편차 주변에서 종방향균열 발생을 확인하였다. 라이닝 천단 중앙에서 실시된 종단 두께 분포는 3개의 적합도 검증을 통해 터널별 최적의 분포함수가 선정되었다. 종방향 라이닝 두께의 평균이 설계기준 이상인 경우 정규분포 및 이와 유사한 분포 특성을 나타내고 있으며, 설계두께 이하의 터널에서는 Gamma, Inverse Gauss분포함수가 해당터널의 라이닝을 대표하기 위한 최적함수로 적합할 것으로 판단하였다. NATM터널(무근) 라이닝의 두께분포는 터널의 상태평가 및 안전성평가를 전반적으로 분석하기 위한 중요한 지표가 될 수 있으며, 향후 기존의 일정한 설계 두께를 적용하기 보다는 GPR탐사를 반영한 라이닝의 현실적인 평가 방법의 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
