  • Damage detection has been proven to be a challenging task in structural health monitoring (SHM) due to the fact that damage cannot be measured. The difficulty associated with damage detection is related to electing a feature that is sensitive to damage occurrence and evolution. This difficulty increases as the damage size decreases limiting the ability to detect damage occurrence at the micron and submicron length scale. Damage detection at this length scale is of interest for sensitive structures such as aircrafts and nuclear facilities. In this paper a new photonic sensor based on photonic crystal (PhC) technology that can be synthesized at the nanoscale is introduced. PhCs are synthetic materials that are capable of controlling light propagation by creating a photonic bandgap where light is forbidden to propagate. The interesting feature of PhC is that its photonic signature is strongly tied to its microstructure periodicity. This study demonstrates that when a PhC sensor adhered to polymer substrate experiences micron or submicron damage, it will experience changes in its microstructural periodicity thereby creating a photonic signature that can be related to damage severity. This concept is validated here using a three-dimensional integrated numerical simulation.

  • In this paper, we describe new approach of ink particle fabrication method for electrophoretic display(EPD) with low voltage and rapid response time. Nano-size ink particles which fabricated using non-aqueous base modified emulsion process and micron-scale particles by non-solvent particle fabrication process are discussed. Finally, specially designed particles and panel structure fabricated considering the interactions between particle/particle, particle/media or particle/electrode dramatically reduce the driving voltages to ${\pm}$ 10V and improve the response time of less than 100msec and white reflectance of 58% for EPD using dielectric fluid as a medium. In case of EPD adapting micron-sized electrophoretic particles and a medium of air, the saturation voltage could be reduced to ${\pm}$ 40V and having white reflectance of 45% without scarification of electrophoretic mobility of the particles.

  • We fabricated flanged outer races for wheel bearing units using 0.52%C clean steels, and then characterized and studied the transformation behavior. The outer races produced by hot forging and high frequency induction hardening in this study were analyzed through microstructural characterization using OM, SEM, TEM, and X-ray diffractometer and their microhardness depth profiles of the raceway contacted by balls were measured using MVH tester. The surface hardened layers with a uniform hardness profile in the raceway consisting of very fine martensite with sub-micron sized retained austenite could be formed for very short time during high frequency induction hardening after hot forging. The very fine martensite may be transformed on rapid cooling, from the inhomogeneous austenite nucleated on rapid heating in small particles of pearlitic cementite fragmentated by hot forging. On the other hand the sub-micron sized retained austenite may be chemically stabilized due to their extremely small size, from the small austenite nucleated at the grain boundaries.

  • Ever since the experimental discovery of graphene exfoiliated from the graphite flakes by Geim et at., this area has drawn a lot of attention for its possible application in IT industry. For the growth of graphene, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been widely used to fabricate the large area graphene. The lateral size of this graphene can be easily controlled by the size of the metal substrate though the chemical etching to remove this substrate is somewhat troublesome. Another problem which is hard to avoid is the folding at the grain boundary. We will discuss the origin of the folding first and introduce the way to avoid this folding. To solve this problem, we have used the various types of micro-thin metal foils. The precise control of hydro-carbon and the carrier gas results in the formation of the graphene on top of substrate. The thickness of graphene layers can be controlled with the control of gas flow on top of Cu substrate in contrast to the previously reported self-limiting growth $behavior^1$. Uniformity of this graphene layer has been checked by micro-raman spectroscopy and SEM. The size of grain can be enhanced by thermal treatment or use of other metal substrate. The dependence of grain size on the lattice size of the substrate will be discussed. By selecting the shape of substrate, we can grow various types of graphene. We will introduce the micron size graphene tube and its application.

  • A spherical $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ :Eu phosphor has been synthesized by a multi-step precipitation route. In order to successfully synthesize the phosphor with spherical shape, the hydrated-alumina particles should be controlled for spherical shape. In this process, the hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) was used as a dispersing reagent. This reagent plays an important role in that the particles were controlled to have the uniform size of sub-micron. The final product prepared by the multi-step precipitation method maintained spherical shape with uniform size of 0.4$\mu\textrm{m}$. It can be seen in X-ray diffraction patterns, formation of the single phase of $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ :Eu phosphor prepared by the multi-step precipitation method at $1350^{\circ}C$. Also, the emission spectra of spherical $BaMgAl_{O}$ $10_{17}$ :Eu phosphor in the present case was compared with those of commercially-available blue phosphor under VUV (Vacuum Ultra Violet) excitation. The luminescence process of the $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ :Eu phosphor is characterized by the $4f^{6}$$5d^1$longrightarrow4f$^{7}$ transition (blue) of the $Eu^{2+}$ ion acting as an activating center and the maximum luminescence intensity was obtained by reduction treatment at 145$0^{\circ}C$.

  • 96% 과산화수소와 케로신을 추진제로 사용하는 500 N 급 로켓엔진에 대하여 추진제의 분무, 기화, 혼합, 연소를 포함하는 수치해석을 수행하였다. 1/6 조각의 연소실을 격자로 생성하였으며, 세 가지 종류의 액체상 추진제(케로신, 과산화수소, 물)가 속이 빈 콘 형태로 공급되는 분무를 모사하였고, Rosin-Rammler 함수에 따른 액적크기 분포를 가정하였으며, 연소 해석에는 와류소산모델을 사용하였다. 본 계산에서는 작은 연소실 크기, 그리고 과산화수소 및 물의 큰 잠열 및 비열로 인하여 평균 액적 크기 변화에 따라 큰 성능의 차이를 나타냈으며, 평균 액적 크기가 30 micron인 경우 가장 좋은 추진성능을 보여주었다.

  • Synthesis of sub-micron $2SnO{\cdot}(H_2O)$ powders by chemical reduction process was performed at room temperature as function of viscosity of methanol solution and molecular weight of PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone). Tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate and sodium borohydride were used as the tin precursor and the reducing agent, respectively. Simultaneous calcination and sintering processes were additionally performed by heating the $2SnO{\cdot}(H_2O)$ powders. In the synthesis of the $2SnO{\cdot}(H_2O)$ powders, it was possible to control the powder size using different combinations of the methanol solution viscosity and the PVP molecular weight. The molecular weight of PVP particularly influenced the size of the synthesized $2SnO{\cdot}(H_2O)$ powders. A holding time of 1 hr in air at $500^{\circ}C$ sufficiently transformed the $2SnO{\cdot}(H_2O)$ into $SnO_2$ phase; however, most of the PVP (molecular weight: 1,300,000) surface-capped powders decomposed and was removed after heating for 1 h at $700^{\circ}C$. Hence, heating for 1 h at $500^{\circ}C$ made a porous $SnO_2$ film containing residual PVP, whereas dense $SnO_2$ films with no significant amount of PVP formed after heating for 1 h at $700^{\circ}C$.

  • 음향집게는 마이크론 단위의 미세입자를 비접촉 방식으로 조작할 수 있어 다양한 생체공학 응용에 사용되고 있다. 현재까지 음향집게는 in vitro 실험을 목적으로 개발되어 임의파형 발생기와 전력 증폭기와 같은 부피가 큰 고가의 장비를 사용하여 구현하였다. 따라서 이러한 시스템은 이동이 불편하여 한정된 공간에서만 사용이 가능하기 때문에 향후 in vivo 및 임상 실험에 적합하지 않은 구조를 가진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이동이 가능한 휴대용 음향집게를 개발하고 그 성능을 평가하였다. 개발한 휴대용 음향집게 시스템은 하나의 Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA)와 2 개의 펄서로 구현되었으며, Universal Serial Bus(USB) 통신을 이용하여 Personal Computer(PC)에서 송신 주파수 및 펄스 길이 등을 실시간으로 조절이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 개발한 시스템은 최대 20 MHz의 중심 주파수 까지 송신이 가능하며, 미세입자 및 세포를 포획할 수 있는 충분한 힘을 생성할 수 있었다. 개발한 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 40 ㎛와 90 ㎛ 크기의 폴리스티렌 입자를 포획 및 조정하였다.

  • In any mechanical system consisting of gears, shafts and/or bearings, the majority of metallic particles deposited into and carried by the lubrication system originate from the deterioration of oil-wetted working surfaces, even in proper lubrication system, due to failure mechanism (s) such as wear, fatigue and fretting corrosion. Determination of the point at which transition from normal to abnormal or to actual damage occurs has become a focus of attention in research activities for years, because it has been recognized that reliable, economic operation can be achieved through appropriate preventative measures. Known collectively from 'all size wear debris analysis' as early failure detection, the methods of testing for damage differ considerably, range from a micron or a submicron size debris analysis to Magnetic Chip Detector (MCD) ferrous debris analysis. This paper will be focused on the utilization of the low-cost analysis techniques for evaluation of industrial machinery condition.
