SiC nanoparticles were used to increase flexural properties of polymer matrix. This study was to manufacture huge concentration SiC nanoparticle/epoxy composites and to evaluate the dispersion. During mixing SiC nanoparticle and epoxy, 20 wt% SiC nanoparticle in total composites was used with both stirrer and sonication equipment together. Mixing speed and dispersion were improved with the method by using both stirrer and sonication equipment at the same time via mechanical test and FE-SEM. Based on the results, modeling of SiC nanoparticle dispersion could be established. Ultimately, unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced composites was manufactured using 20 wt% SiC nanoparticle/epoxy. Mechanical property of CFRP using dual stirrer and sonication mixing method was better than composites by single sonication mixing method.

Improvement of the thermal and adhesion properties of stone/wood composites was studied. Tensile test was performed for wood and stone to know the basic mechanical properties. Real-time temperature of stone and wood was measured when stone and wood was heated. To compare thermal transfer properties of stone/wood composites, two types of specimens were tested: one was stone upper whereas another was wood upper. Real time temperature measurement and lap shear test were performed to know thermal and adhesion properties by using CNT-epoxy adhesive in which CNT was dispersed in epoxy adhesive uniformly. The thermal transfer property was better for the wood upper case than stone upper case. Adding CNT improved the heat transfer as well as mechanical properties including lap shear strength.

Methods that industrial spies use to smuggle core technology out are becoming more intelligent, technological, and complex, thus resulting in more serious damages. In particular, defense industries in which involve national core technology as well as institutions including labor force are industries that are in a greater need of the convergence security. Defense Industry develops, experiments, and produces defense security supplies for national security protection. Defense industry involves a number of security elements such as military secret, industrial secret, core technology labor force, defense industry supply, critical national facility, and information communication system. Defense industry security is a complex of military security and industrial security which is convergence security that integrates all security elements of defense industry. Therefore, defense industry security is a typical ideal model for convergence security. Research on defense industry security is relatively insufficient compared to research of security in other industrial fields. In order to prevent core technology of denfese industry from leaking and to protect technical professionals and institutions, research and action on defense industry security from convergence security perspective are therefore essential at this point of time.

In this letter, we propose a one-way ranging algorithm that is based on wireless synchronization with measured timestamps and clock frequency offsets. In our proposed algorithm, an active mobile node initiates a ranging procedure by transmitting a ranging frame, and the anchor nodes report their timestamps for the received ranging frame to a reference anchor node. The synchronization of a pair of nodes is provided with instantaneous time information, and the corresponding difference of distances can be calculated.

The screen-printing method is the most mature solar cell fabrication technology, which has the advantage of being faster and simpler process than other printing technology. A front metallization printed through screen printing influences the efficiency and manufacturing cost of solar cell. Recent technology development of crystalline silicon solar cell is proceeding to reduce the manufacturing cost while improving the efficiency. Therefore, screen printing requires process development to reduce a line width of an electrode and decrease shading area. In this paper, we will discuss the development trend and prospects of screen-printing metallization using metal paste, which is currently used in manufacturing commercial crystalline silicon solar cells.

The interest about Artificial Intelligence through the AlphaGo Match in Korea has been increasing rapidly. So far, very little has been done in Artificial Intelligence. The aim of this paper is to reveal technology convergence and to assess the country profile in the field of artificial intelligence(AI). Technology convergence map was created after extracting USPTO patent grants and Web of Science data and generating matrics in the field of AI. Several Indicators were obtained by extracting and calculating SCOPUS Data that KISTI has. According to USPTO patent grants, it shows that AI technology has a strong relationship with several sectors such as cost/price determination, image analysis, and surgery, etc. Also, AI has a active convergence with some fields of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, BioTechnologies, and Medicine etc. According to country profile analysis, Korea reaches a global average growth index. However, in terms of specialization index (SI) and average of relative citations (ARC), there is a large gap between Korea and research leading countries.
