The use of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS) in automotive applications has steadily increased over the past few years. Two different failure modes are generally observed in shear-tension tests for resistance spot welds of AHSS. interfacial fractures and full button pullout. Despite high load-carrying capacity. the resistance spot welds in AHSS cue prone to interfacial fractures. To improve the load carrying ability of welds during shear-lap and cross tension tests. the tip surface of the electrode was grooved in a round shape. The electrode tip surface was modified so as to concentrate the current now in the central and circumferential portion of the electrode force. The results showed that the interfacial fracture was suppressed in welds using the modified electrode. In a comparison of failure mode during mechanical tests. the welds made with the modified electrode showed a higher tendency to fail via full button pullout fracture.

Since cardiac pacemaker was first totally implanted by Chardack, Gage and Greatbatch [1966], the electrical circuity of the cardiac pacemaker has been improved, modified, and refined. The problem of transvenous electrodes, however, is still remained; this may be due to electrode displacement, exit and/or entrance block, lead fracture and insulation defects. In permanent cardiac pacing, Irreversible loss of function of the transvenous electrode catheter eventually requires insertion of new lead. Authors now report one case that disclosed easy displacement of electrode tip in early phase of implantation and then two years and five months later, malfunctioning electrode could not be withdrawn from the cardiovascular system because it has become firmly enclosed by fibrous tissue along its course from the vein tract to the right ventricle. Under such circumstances, the electrode catheter tip was left in tricuspid annulus after being sutured at its entrance and burying the loop of lead in generator pocket. New other one electrode was then reimplantation through left external jugular vein.

This paper describes the fabrication method for atomic force microscopy(AFM) tip with multi-walled carbon nanotube(MWNT). For making a carbon nanotube (CNT) modified tips, AC electric field which cause the dielectrophoresis was used for alignment and deposition of CNTs in this research. By dropping the MWNT solution and applying an electric field between an AFM tip and an electrode, MWNTs which were dispersed into a diluted solution were directly assembled onto the apex of the AFM tips due to the attraction by the dielectrophoretic force. In this case, we investigate the effect of the angle between a tip axis and an electrode. Experimental setup were presented, and then CNT attached AFM tips are successfully shown in this paper.

This paper reports about the development of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) tip with multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT). For making a carbon nanotube (CNT) modified tips, AC electric field which causes the dielectrophoresis was used for alignment and deposition of CNTs to the metal coated SPM tip. By dropping the MWNT solution and applying an electric field between an SPM tip and an electrode, MWNTs which were dispersed into a diluted solution were directly assembled onto the apex of the SPM tips due to the attraction by the dielectrophoretic force. In this paper, we investigate experimental conditions about the alignment of the CNT to tip axis according to the change of the angle between a tip and an electrode. Experimental results are presented, and then fabricated CNT tips are showed and measurement results for 15nm gold particles are compared with that of the conventional silicon tip.

Lift-off를 이용한 DLC-coated Si-tip FEA 제조에 있어서 gate 절연막의 측면에 DLC가 coating되는 것을 방지하기 위해 기판 상에 Al 희생층을 경사-회전 증착한 뒤 DLC를 coating하고, 다음으로 희생층을 식각하여 tip 이외의 DLC를 제거하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이러한 Al희생층을 이용한 lift-off공정에 의해 제조된 DLC-coated Si-tip FEA의 전류전압 특성과 전류 표동 특성을 조사하였으며, gate 누설 전류의 감소와 방출 전류의 안정성을 확인하였다.

Welding variables and conditions in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) effect on the weld quality and productivity, extensive research efforts have been made to analyze the welding variables and conditions. In this study dynamic behavior of GMAW system is investigated using the characteristic equations of the power supply, wire and welding arc. Characteristic equation of wire is modified to include the effect of droplets attached at the electrode tip. The dynamic characteristics of arc length, current, voltage with respect to the step, ramp inputs of CTWD was simulated, seam tracking procedure using arc sensor was simulated with variable V-Groove geometries and weaving frequencies. From results of simulation, some predictions about dynamic characteristics of GMAW and welding process are available. The proposed simulator and results appear to be utilized to determine the proper welding conditions, to be improved by considering power supply dynamic characteristics.

최근 자동차에서 경량화의 방안으로써 높은 강성을 요구하는 고장력강 사용이 증대 되고 있다. 그러나 고장력강은 저항 점용접 시 일반 강에 비해 높은 전류를 요구하며 계면파단 및 expulsion 발생이 용이하기 때문에 가용 전류 구간이 좁은 특성을 가진다. 많은 연구자들이 hold time, tempering 등의 process를 이용하여 고장력강의 저항 점용접성을 개선하고자 하였으나 생산 공정라인에 적용하기는 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 용접 공정 변수의 변화에 따른 용접성과 전극 형상 변화을 통한 고장력강 점 용접성 향상에 대한 연구를 실시 하였다. 고장력강의 점 용접성 비교하기 위해 표준 전극(S1)과 인위적으로 가공한 전극(M1)을 사용하였으며, 실험에 사용된 판재는 두께 1.4mm의 DP590이며, 그 결과 표준전극(S1) 보다 가공 전극(M1)의 가용 전류 구간이 0.5kA 정도 넓은 것으로 확인 되었다. 두 전극을 사용한 점용접 시험편들의 인장전단강도를 비교 해보면 표준전극(S1)을 적용한 점용접 시 인장전단강도는 KS B 0850 기준에 만족하나 계면 파단이 발생 하였다. 가공 전극(M1)을 적용한 점용접 시 인장전단강도는 규격 기준에 만족하나 버튼 파단이 발생 하였다. 두 전극을 적용한 점용접부 형상 및 용접부 온도 분포에대해 저항점용접 시뮬레이션 프로그램(SORPAS)을 이용하여 실험 결과 값과 비교 분석하였고 파단모드의 변화에 대한 원인 분석을 도출 하였다.

대퇴골 머리의 골괴사는 특발성이며 진행성 질환이다. 골괴사증 연구를 위한 다양한 동물모델이 보고되었지만, 현재까지 표준화된 동물모델은 완성되지 않았다. 본 연구에서 랫드에서 세가지 외과적인 방법으로 유발한 골괴사모델을 비교하였다. 20마리의 SD 랫드 (24주령, 숫컷)를 각 5마리씩 대조군과 세개의 실험군으로 구분하였다. 세가지 외과적인 방법으로 골괴사를 유발하였다. 원인대를 자르고, 대퇴골목의 골막을 절개 (S군), 철사를 대퇴골목에 결찰 (W군), W군과 동일한 방법으로 대퇴골목에 철사를 감은 후, 전기소락기의 끝을 철사에 접촉시켜 소락, 그리고 철사를 제거 (B군). 2주후, 랫드는 안락사하고 대퇴골 머리와 목을 채취하였다. H/E 염색, 사프라닌 O염색, TUNEL 염색을 실시하여 대퇴골 머리의 골과 연골에 골괴사 병변을 평가하였다. 모든 외과적인 방법 (S, W, B군)에서 골괴사가 2주간의 단기간에 유발되었다. 연골부분에 대한 유의적인 괴사변화는 B군에서만 관찰되었다. 철사를 통한 소락 후, 철사를 제거하는 변형된 외과적 방법은 다른 방법에 비해 더욱 효과적으로 골괴사 실험모델을 완성하였다.
