PURPOSES : Pavement surface friction depends significantly on pavement surface texture characteristics. The mean texture depth (MTD), which is an index representing pavement surface texture characteristics, is typically used to predict pavement surface friction. However, the MTD may not be sufficient to represent the texture characteristics to predict friction. To enhance the prediction of pavement surface friction, one must select additional variables that can explain complex pavement surface textures. METHODS : In this study, pavement surface texture characteristics that affect pavement surface friction were analyzed based on the friction mechanism. The wavelength, pavement surface texture shape, and pavement texture depth were hypothesized to significantly affect the surface friction of pavement. To verify this, the effects of the three abovementioned pavement surface texture characteristics on pavement surface friction must be investigated. However, because the surface texture of actual pavements is irregular, examining the individual effects of these characteristics is difficult. To achieve this goal, the selected pavement surface texture characteristics were formed quantitatively, and the irregularities of the actual pavement surface texture were improved by artificially forming the pavement surface texture using threedimensionally printed specimens. To reflect the pavement surface texture characteristics in the specimen, the MTD was set as the pavement surface texture depth, and the exposed aggregate number (EAN) was set as a variable. Additionally, the aggregate shape was controlled to reflect the characteristics of the pavement surface texture of the specimen. Subsequently, a shape index was proposed and implemented in a statistical analysis to investigate its effect on pavement friction. The pavement surface friction was measured via the British pendulum test, which enables measurement to be performed in narrow areas, considering the limited size of the three-dimensionally printed specimens. On wet pavement surfaces, the pavement surface friction reduced significantly because of the water film, which intensified the effect of the pavement surface texture. Therefore, the pavement surface friction was measured under wet conditions. Accordingly, a BPN (wet) prediction model was proposed by statistically analyzing the relationship among the MTD, EAN, aggregate shape, and BPN (wet). RESULTS : Pavement surface friction is affected by adhesion and hysteresis, with hysteresis being the predominant factor under wet conditions. Because hysteresis is caused by the deformation of rubber, pavement surface friction can be secured through the formation of a pavement surface texture that causes rubber deformation. Hysteresis occurs through the function of macro-textures among pavement surface textures, and the effects of macro-texture factors such as the EAN, MTD, and aggregate shape on the BPN (wet) are as follows: 1) The MTD ranges set in this study are 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2, and under the experimental conditions, the BPN (wet) increases linearly with the MTD. 2) An optimum EAN is indicated when the BPN (wet) is the maximum, and the BPN decreases after its maximum value is attained. This may be because when the EAN increases excessively, the space for the rubber to penetrate decreases, thereby reducing the hysteresis. 3) The shape of the aggregate is closely related to the EAN; meanwhile, the maximum value of the pavement surface friction and the optimum EAN change depending on the aggregate shape. This is believed to be due to changes in the rubber penetration volume based on the aggregate shape. Based on the results above, a statistical prediction model for the BPN (wet) is proposed using the MTD, EAN, and shape index as variables. CONCLUSIONS : The EAN, MTD, and aggregate shape are crucial factors in predicting skid resistance. Notably, the EAN and aggregate shape, which are not incorporated into existing pavement surface friction prediction models, affect the pavement surface friction. However, the texture of the specimen created via three-dimensional printing differs significantly from the actual pavement surface texture. Therefore, the pavement surface friction prediction model proposed in this study should be supplemented with comparisons with actual pavement surface data in the future.

3D 콘크리트 프린팅 기술은 거푸집 없이 콘크리트를 출력하고 제작하여 콘크리트 표면의 대부분이 외기에 노출되고, 이로 인해 콘크리트 내부 수분이 빠르게 증발하고 수축이 크게 발생한다. 또한, 결합 재 대비 낮은 골재 함량과 낮은 물/결합재 비(W/B)를 가지는 사용 배합의 특성상 수축으로 인한 균 열이 발생하기 쉽다. 이러한 3D 콘크리트 프린팅의 수축에 대한 문제는 섬유 혼입을 통해 해결할 수 있고, 부가적으로 적층성 향상의 이점을 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 섬유 보강 3D 프린팅 모르타르의 역학적 특성을 살펴보고자 섬유 혼입률을 변수로 실험하였다. 보강 섬유로는 PP섬유를 사 용하였고, 섬유 혼입률 0, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8%를 변수로 실험하였다. 갠트리 방식의 3D 프린터에 30 × 30 mm 사각형 개구부를 가진 노즐을 설치해 1300× 800mm 크기의 직사각형 형태로 모르타르를 출력 하였다. 호퍼 회전속도 6 rpm, 노즐 이동 속도 1500 mm/min을 적용하여 출력하였고, 1층 높이를 30mm로 출력하여 5층 적층하였다. 적층 완료 후 압축강도, 휨인장강도, 층간 부착강도를 측정하기 위 한 시험체를 각각 추출하였고, 28일 수중 양생 후 각 강도실험을 통해 역학적특성을 평가하였다.

3D 프린팅 콘크리트는 임의의 형상을 자유롭게 적층하여 제작할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있지만, 노즐의 구조 및 형상에 따라 곡선부의 출력 품질이 달라진다. 또한, 공기중에서 출력한 경우와 수중에 서 출력한 경우 그 품질이 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 고정 마감날을 가진 사각형 노즐을 이용하여 3D 프린팅 모르타르를 수중에서 곡선 형태로 출력하고 적층한 후 출력성능, 적층성능, 및 역학적성능을 평가하였다. 30 × 30 mm 사각형 개구부를 가지고 있고 노즐 끝 양 측면에 고정 마감날이 설치된 노 즐을 사용하였다. 사전 직선 출력시험에서 선정된 조건인 호퍼 회전속도 14 rpm, 노즐 이동 속도 2000 mm/min을 적용하여 출력하였고, 1층 높이를 30mm로 출력하여 5층 적층하였다. 출력 및 적층 결과, 직선부분의 표면은 양호한 반면 곡면부분, 특히 곡률이 큰 곡선부분의 바깥쪽에서 표면균열이 관찰되었다. 직선부분의 치수 일관성은 양호한 반면, 곡률 반경이 작은 곡선부분의 폭 차이가 나타났 다. 곡선부분의 밀도와 압축강도는 직선부분보다 낮았다. 이는 곡선부에서 직사각형 노즐 회전에 따른 재료 토출이 불균일하기 때문인데, 이러한 문제점을 보완할 수 있는 제어 기술 개발이 필요하다.

In the contemporary era, 3D printing technology has become widely utilized across diverse fields, including biomedicine, industrial design, manufacturing, food processing, aerospace, and construction engineering. The inherent advantages of automation, precision, and speed associated with 3D printing have progressively led to its incorporation into road engineering. Asphalt, a temperature-responsive material that softens at high temperatures and solidifies as it cools, presents distinctive challenges and opportunities in this context. For the effective implementation of 3D printing technology in road engineering, 3D printed asphalt (3DPA) must exhibit favorable performance and printability. This requires attributes such as good fluidity, extrudability, and buildability. Furthermore, materials utilizing 3DPA for crack repair should possess high viscosity, elasticity, toughness, superior high-temperature stability, and resistance to low-temperature cracking. These characteristics ultimately contribute to enhancing pavement longevity and ensuring worker safety.

This paper proposes the armored combat bulldozer, essential for amphibious tasks, requires water ingress prevention and submersion capabilities, typically addressed by a centrifugal pump. This study aims to boost the bulldozer's drainage pump efficiency by replacing the traditional aluminum 3-blade impeller with one made of ASA material using 3D printing. Analysis via ANSYS Fluent revealed that the 5-blade impeller increased discharge volume by 19.31% and efficiency by 6.07%, while the 6-blade variant saw a 27.07% increase in discharge volume and 8.81% efficiency improvement. Further scrutiny with ANSYS Static Structure ensured the new impellers' structural integrity and robustness under extreme conditions. This research confirms the potential of 3D printing in enhancing military equipment, demonstrating significant improvements in pump performance and opening paths for advanced manufacturing techniques to meet the demanding needs of combat vehicles.

In this study, the structural performance of the specimen fabricated through 3D printing was evaluated through monotonic loading experiments analysis to apply to 3D printed structures. The compression and flexural experiments were carried out, and the experimental results were compared to the finite element model results. The loading directions of specimens were investigated to consider the capacity of specimens with different curing periods, such as 7 and 28 days. As a result, the strength tended to increase slightly depending on the stacking direction. Also, between the 3D-printed panel composite and the non-reinforced panel, the bending performance depended on the presence or absence of composite reinforcement.

Recently, it has been applied and used in various fields using 3D printing. Since it is closely connected to our lives, the mechanical properties of the output are actively studied. Therefore, in this study, tensile specimens were manufactured using the FDM lamination method using PLA materials, and the changes in tensile properties were compared and evaluated. First, 120 tensile specimens were manufactured using the spacing angle and lamination density of the lamination angle as control factors. After that, a tensile test was conducted at the same tensile speed of 5mm/s to compare and evaluate the tensile strength and elastic modulus. As a result, it was found that the tensile strength and elastic modulus increased linearly with density than the lamination angle. In addition, when the laminating angle was 0°, the tensile strength and elastic modulus were the largest. When the laminating angle was 108°, the lowest tensile strength and elastic modulus were confirmed.

This research was conducted to reduce the defect rate caused by nozzle clogging of printing heads used in binder jet 3D printers. The binder jet 3D printing technology may adhere to the printing head nozzle by dispersing powder due to mechanical operation such as transferring the printing head and supplying powder, and may cause nozzle clogging by natural curing at the nozzle end depending on the type of binder used. To solve this problem, this study created a cleaning module exclusively for printing heads to check whether the durability of printing heads is improved through analysis of printing results before and after using the cleaning module. To this end, this research used a thermal bubble jet printing head, and the used powder was studied using gypsum powder.

3D printing is widely used in product development and prototype manufacturing, and is expected to become universal across various industries with the development of 3D printing-related technologies. However, parts made by Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM) 3D printing using the commonly used stacking manufacturing process, show low tensile strength and hardness. The decreased mechanical properties of these parts limit their use as structural elements. In this study, we aim to investigate the relationship between ultrasonic treatment of PLA parts produced by FDM 3D printing and their mechanical properties. Specifically, we analyze the effects of ultrasonic annealing on the mechanical properties of PLA parts using the tensile test specimen.

We attempted to provide an overview of the laws and current state of the 3D printing industry in South Korea and around the world, using the annual industry surveys and the Wohler report. Additionally, we reviewed articles relating to the potential exposure to hazards associated with 3D printing using metal materials. In South Korea, there were 406 3D printing-related businesses, employing 2,365 workers, and the market size was estimated at 455.9 billion won in 2021. Globally, the average growth rate of the 3D printing industry market over the past 10 years was 27.4%, and the market size was estimated at $11.8 billion in 2019. The United States had the highest cumulative installation ratio of industrial 3D printers, followed by China, Japan, Germany, and South Korea. A total of 6,168 patents related to 3D printing were registered in the US between 2010 and 2019. Harmful factors during metal 3D printing was mainly evaluated in the powder bed fusion and direct energy deposition printing types, and there is a case of material extrusion type with metal additive filaments. The number, mass, size distribution, and chemical composition of particles were mainly evaluated. Particle concentration increases during the opening of the chamber or post-processing. However, operating the 3D printer in a ventilated chamber can reduce particle concentration to the background level. In order to have a safe and healthy environment for 3D printing, it is necessary to accumulate and apply knowledge through various studies.

Digitization and automation technologies have rapidly maximized productivity and efficiency in all industries over the past few decades. Construction automation technology has either stagnated over the same period or has not kept pace with overall economic productivity. According to the research studies up to now, the output of concrete structures using coarse aggregates (8mm or more) is very limited due to the limitations of equipment and materials. In this study, information on the development process of 3DCP equipment that can print concrete structures with the printing width (100 mm or more) and printing thickness (30 mm or more) using a 3DCP material mixed with coarse aggregate (8 mm or more) is provided. To verify the performance of the developed 3DCP equipment, experimental data are provided on output variables, the number of layers, and the inter-layer printing time interval. The evaluation and verification data of various mechanical properties (compressive and splitting tensile strength) of printed materials using coarse aggregates are provided.

Recently, 3D printing has been actively studied. A representative material in this 3D printing technology is plastic, and PLA, an eco-friendly material, is widely used. FDM is widely used as a way to output these PLA materials. However, this method lacks mechanical properties compared to injection-molded products as it is a method of stacking materials by melting. Therefore, in this study, using an FDM-type 3D printer, a tensile test was performed after printing a tensile specimen with PLA filament with the layer angle and layer density as control factors. After that, changes in tensile properties according to the layer angle and density were compared and evaluated. As a result, to improve the tensile strength, the layer density had to be considered, and to improve the elastic modulus, both the layer angle and the layer density had to be considered.

3D 프린팅은 다수의 레이어(layer)를 적층하여 물체를 제작하는 기법으로, 복잡한 형상을 가지는 물체를 비교적 쉽게 제작할 수 있 다. 이를 건설 산업에 접목한 3D 콘크리트 프린팅(3D concrete printing)은 콘크리트 타설 시 거푸집을 사용하지 않으며, 비교적 적은 작업량과 인력이 요구되므로 경제적인 시공이 가능하나, 출력된 3D 프린팅 콘크리트는 일반 콘크리트 대비 다소 낮은 강도가 예상된 다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 3D 프린팅 콘크리트 시편의 물성을 분석하였다. 3D 프린팅 콘크리트 시편 출력을 위해 Ultimaker Cura 소 프트웨어로 형상 및 출력 경로를 설계하고, 이를 바탕으로 3D 프린터를 제어하는 G-code를 생성하였다. 연구에서 사용된 3D 프린터 의 출력 성능과 콘크리트의 적층성, 유동성 등을 고려하여 최적의 배합비를 선정하였고, 시편 출력에 활용하였다. 시편 출력 시 동일 한 치수를 가지는 몰드 시편을 함께 제작하여 비교･분석에 사용하였다. 각 시편의 물성은 휨강도 시험과 압축강도 시험을 통해 각각 의 강도를 측정하였고, 비교･분석하여 3D 프린팅 콘크리트 시편의 물성을 확인하였다.

Aluminum alloys are extensively employed in several industries, such as automobile, aerospace, and architecture, owing to their high specific strength and electrical and thermal conductivities. However, to meet the rising industrial demands, aluminum alloys must be designed with both excellent mechanical and thermal properties. Computer-aided alloy design is emerging as a technique for developing novel alloys to overcome these trade-off properties. Thus, the development of a new experimental method for designing alloys with high-throughput confirmation is gaining focus. A new approach that rapidly manufactures aluminum alloys with different compositions is required in the alloy design process. This study proposes a combined approach to rapidly investigate the relationship between the microstructure and properties of aluminum alloys using a direct energy deposition system with a dual-nozzle metal 3D printing process. Two types of aluminum alloy powders (Al-4.99Si-1.05Cu-0.47Mg and Al-7Mg) are employed for the 3D printing-based combined method. Nine types of Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloys are manufactured using the combined method, and the relationship between their microstructures and properties is examined.
