Research has been conducted on a wide variety of 3D printer circular fin heads. In this study, we proposed a sequence and method for a more efficient mesh study in the CFD model to calculate the Nusselt number of the circular fin head of an FDM 3D printer using the Taguchi method, sensitivity, and ANOVA. As a result, the CFD model to calculate the Nusselt number of the circular fin head of an FDM 3D printer has high sensitivity and contribution in the order of Base target mesh size, Prism layer number, and Prism layer thickness. We propose to increase work efficiency by performing mesh optimization in the order of factors with high sensitivity to level changes.

This study investigates the effect of the microstructure of Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7(PO4)3 (LATP), a solid electrolyte, on its ionic conductivity. Solid electrolytes, a key component in electrochemical energy storage devices such as batteries, differ from traditional liquid electrolytes by utilizing solid-state ionic conductors. LATP, characterized by its NASICON structure, facilitates rapid lithium-ion movement and exhibits relatively high ionic conductivity, chemical stability, and good electrochemical compatibility. In this study, the microstructure and ionic conductivity of LATP specimens sintered at 850, 900, and 950oC for various sintering times are analyzed. The results indicate that the changes in the microstructure due to sintering temperature and time significantly affect ionic conductivity. Notably, the specimens sintered at 900oC for 30 min exhibit high ionic conductivity. This study presents a method to optimize the ionic conductivity of LATP. Additionally, it underscores the need for a deeper understanding of the Li-ion diffusion mechanism and quantitative microstructure analysis.

The automotive industry continuously strives to enhance safety for both drivers and passengers through technological advancements. Car side impacts have the potential to significant risks to passengers, So the automotive industry has proposed various technological solutions. As part of these efforts, the development of side impact beams, which are affixed to the inner frame of vehicle side doors to absorb and dissipate collision energy, has been a safety enhancement. Conventional side impact beams are manufactured using hot-rolled steel sheets and have a pipe-like configuration. However, these impact beams are fixed to the vehicle's chassis, which directly transfers the energy generated during a collision to the chassis frame. This paper aims to address this issue by proposing the development and optimization of vehicle door impact beams using a dual-beam structure and fastening method, utilizing shear bolts. Moreover, the focus is on optimizing the cross-sectional shape of the dual-beam impact structure. The evaluation criterion for optimization is based on the second moment of area of the cross-section. To validate these improvements, Static experiments were conducted, comparing the proposed dual-beam structure with the traditional impact beam. This research is expected to serve as a guideline for enhancing vehicle safety through design directions and validation methods.

To harvest marketable cucumbers, high quality seedlings must be used. Producing seedlings in the greenhouse during the low radiation period decreases marketability due to insufficient light for growth. Supplemental lighting with artificial light of different quality can be used to improve low light conditions and produce high quality seedlings. Therefore, this study was conducted to select the appropriate supplemental light sources on the growth and seedling quality of grafted cucumber seedlings during the low radiation period. Three cultivars of cucumber were used as scions for grafting; ‘NakWonSeongcheongjang’, ‘Sinsedae’, and ‘Goodmorning baekdadagi’. Figleaf gourd (Cucurbita ficifolia) ‘Heukjong’ was used as the rootstock. The seeds were sown on January 26, 2023, and grafted on February 9, 2023. After graft-taking, cucumbers in plug trays were treated with RB light-emitting diodes (LED, red and blue LED, red:blue = 8:2), W LED (white LED, R:G:B = 5:3:2), and HPS (high-pressure sodium lamp), respectively. Non-treatment was used as the control. Supplemental lighting was applied 2 hours before sunrise and 2 hours after sunset for 19 days. The stem diameter and fresh and dry weights of roots did not differ significantly by supplemental light sources. The plant height and hypocotyl length were decreased in W LED. However, the leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, and fresh and dry weights of shoots were the highest in the RB LED. Seedling qualities such as crop growth rate, net assimilation rate, and compactness were also increased in RB LED and W LED. After transplanting, most of the growth was not significant, but early yield of cucumber was higher in LED than non-treatment. In conclusion, using RB LED, W LED for supplemental light source during low radiation period in grafted cucumber seedlings improved growth, seedling quality, and early yield of cucumber.

하절기의 높은 일사량은 작물의 과도한 호흡을 유발하여 광 합성을 감소시킨다. 또한 주로 하절기에 발생하는 장마는 온실 내부에 저일조 환경을 유발한다. 저일조 환경은 작물의 생 육과 생산량을 감소시키는 원인이 될 수 있다. 본 연구는 하절 기 차광과 보광이 오이의 생육과 생산량에 미치는 영향에 대 해서 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 오이 접목묘는 2022년 8월 30일에 플라스틱 온실 2동에 정식하였다. 온실 내부의 광량을 감소시키기 위해 온실 1동에 차광 스크린을 설치하였다. 보광 처리는 2022년 9월 7일부터 2022년 10월 20일까지 수행되 었다. 고압나트륨등(high-pressure sodium lamp), 백색 LED (white LED, red:green:blue = 5:3:2), RB LED(combined red and blue LED, red:blue = 7:3)를 보광 광원으로 사용하였 고, 무처리를 대조구로 설정하였다. 보광 처리는 일출 전과 일 몰 후 2시간씩 수행하였고, 보광 광도는 150±20 μmol·m-2·s-1 로 설정하였다. 식물 초장, 엽장, 엽폭, SPAD는 차광 처리에 의해 증가하는 경향을 보였다. RB LED에서는 차광 처리와 관계없이 경경이 유의성 있게 증가되었다. 과실의 생체중과 건물중은 차광과 보광 처리에서 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 과실의 평균 과중은 수확일이 지날수록 보광처리 간의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론적으로, 본 연구에서 하절기 오이 재배 시 50% 수준의 차광 처리는 오이의 생육을 유의하게 향상시켰 다. 또한, 보광 대조구에서 생육과 과실 특성이 좋았다. 본 연 구는 오이 재배 시 보광 기술을 적용하기 위한 기초 연구 자료 로 활용될 수 있다.

본 연구는 성별다양성이 남성과 여성의 자발적 이직에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구는 성별다양 성을 Blau 지수로 정의하고 남성과 여성의 자발적 이직에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 한국노동연구원의 사업체 패널 자료 2007년에서 2013년까지 중 4개년치의 자료를 이용하여 사무직종 중심의 사업장 중 남 성 구성원이 여성 구성원보다 많은 사업장만을 대상으로 패널분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과에 의하면 성 별다양성은 남성의 자발적 이직에 유의한 정(+)적 영향을 미쳤으며, 여성의 자발적 이직에는 유의한 부 (-)적 영향을 미쳤다. 성별다양성의 증가로 인해 기존 주류집단이었던 남성 구성원들의 유사성과 매력이 감소하였기 때문에 남성의 자발적 이직은 증가했을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 성별다양성의 증가는 소수집 단이 차별받지 않고 일할 환경을 형성하고 조직에 대한 신뢰와 만족감을 증가시키기 때문에 여성의 자발 적 이직을 감소시켰을 것이다. 이는 주류집단이 남성인 조직에서 성별다양성의 증가가 여성 집단과 남성 집단의 이직률에 다른 영향을 미치는 것을 보여주는 결과이다. 또한 최초 지배 성별을 고려하는 것과 고 려하지 않는 것의 결과 차이를 비교해보기 위해 추가분석을 실시하였다. 주요 직종이 사무직종인 모든 사업장을 대상으로 성별다양성이 남성과 여성의 자발적 이직에 미치는 영향을 검증하였다. 성별다양성은 남성의 자발적 이직에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났으며, 여성의 자발적 이직에는 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 최초 지배 성별을 고려하는 것과 고려하지 않는 것은 결과에 차이가 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 최초 지배 성별을 구분하여 성별다양성 연구를 진행해야 함을 시사한다. 후속 연구에서는 최신 데이터를 포함한 종단 자료를 활용하여, 다양한 업종과 직종을 대상으로 성별다양성이 남성과 여성의 자발적 이직에 미치는 차별적인 영향을 분석하는 시도가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Recently 3d printer industry has two demands. first is color 3d printing. second is mass production using 3d printer that has large bed. According to previous studies, 3D printed objects have different weights depending on filament colors. 3D printed tensile specimens with filaments of various colors were checked to see they had the same weight. If so, we wanted to see it was statistically significant. As a result, we found that the weight of 3D printed objects was statistically significantly different depending on the filament color. The average weight of 3d printed objects is: Black(8.63g), Blue(8.58g), Yellow(8.53g), White(8.48g), Natural(8.46g), Green (8.45g), Red(8.42g).

The SLA 3d printer is the first of the commercial 3D printer. The 3D printed output is printed hanging on the bed that move to the upper position. Sandblasted bed is used to prevent layer shift. If sandblasting is wrong, the 3D printed output is layer shifted. For this reason, 3D printer manufacturing companies inspect the bed surface. However, the sandblasted surface has variety of irregular shapes and craters, so it is difficult to establish a quality control standard. To solve problems, this paper presents a standardized sandblasting histogram and threshold. We present a filter that can increase the classification rate.

Hydrogen embrittlement refers to a phenomenon in which the ductility and toughness of steel materials are lowered by hydrogen absorbed in metal materials, especially steel, and the tendency to fracture without plastic deformation increases. Fracture due to hydrogen absorption is also called delayed fracture, and it mainly occurs at grain boundaries, stress concentration areas, or areas subject to tensile stress. From a practical point of view, hydrogen embrittlement is frequently associated with corrosion, welding, pickling, electroplating, etc., and in materials, it is prominently displayed in stainless steel or high tensile steel. Regarding the embrittlement mechanism, there is no generally accepted orthodoxy. In this study, A hydrogen embrittlement mechanism is proposed. In addition, the method of suppressing hydrogen embrittlement will be considered.

Communication facilities play an essential role in disaster situations. Therefore, communication facilities need to have structural and functional safety during and after earthquakes. Recently, technology for partial seismic isolation has been increasing to protect data facilities and communication equipment installed in buildings from earthquakes. However, excessive displacement may occur in the seismic isolator during an earthquake due to the resonance between the building and the seismic isolator having long-period characteristics, which may cause overturning and separation of the installed equipment. In this study, analytical and experimental studies were conducted to evaluate the safety of seismic isolators installed in high-rise buildings. It was confirmed that damages might occur in buildings' seismic isolator, with resonance characteristics of less than 1 Hz.

This study was conducted to help manage total floating bacteria and fungi in the indoor air by studying the characteristics of total floating bacteria and fungi according to the indoor CO2 concentration of daycare centers. The sampling and analysis of samples was based on the indoor air quality process test method, and the result analysis was conducted using the SPSS statistical program to perform correlation and regression analysis. Correlation and regression results show that CO2 and total airborne bacteria showed positive relationships, but airborne mold did not show relevance. In addition, in order to identify factors affecting airborne mold, correlation analysis and regression analysis were performed regarding total airborne bacteria, PM10, PM2.5, HCHO, outdoor mold, I/O ratio, indoor temperature/ humidity, area per classroom and volume. The results showed that the factors affecting airborne mold were I/O ratio, outdoor airborne mold, and total airborne bacteria. Research results show that CO2 and total airborne bacteria can be reduced and controlled by natural ventilation, and in the case of airborne mold, mechanical forced ventilation such as hoods will be necessary due to the introduction of outdoor airborne mold. In addition, it is necessary to consider I/O ratio criteria in order to confirm effective indoor mold contamination, taking into account the effect of outdoor mold inflow.
