Power converter devices require a high level of quality because they have a high direct connection with vehicle operation. Therefore, structural bonding was carried out by friction stir welding with excellent mechanical properties. Friction stir welding can cause structural deflection depending on the load of the welding tool, so it is important to control this for high quality flatness. In this study, pre-welding was performed before welding to minimize deflection generated during welding. And deflection reduction data according to the location of pre-welding were analyzed through dynamic analysis. As a result, based on computerized data rather than experimental data an optimized position of pre-welding was secured to minimize the deflection that occurs during friction stir welding. Through this, a process guide that enables high quality structural bonding was presented.

A precise control of the launcher in MLRS(Multiple Launcher Rocket System) is important for a mission completion. During the field operation of the MLRS, a friction noise was heard in the elevation clutch that controls the launcher. It was confirmed that unsteady friction between friction plates and clutch plates has caused the noise in the clutch. Conducting the analysis of drive mechnism in the clutch, there was a possibility of the unsteady friction because of moderated spring constant. Therefore, after performing experiments on the elevation clutch varied with spring constant, it was determined the proper spring constant. Finally, an improvement on the spring constant in the elevation clutch is expected in the future by utilizing the result of this study.

The adoption of scroll type air compressor is gradually increased in the automotive/residential air-conditioner and clean air compressor, and the most of critical components of the scroll are made of aluminum to reduce the friction and weight. Many studies for the surface treatment of the aluminum have been performed to reduce the friction between the components. In the preceding research, we suggested the most appropriate combination of the solid lubricant. In this study, we coated the part of fixed or orbiting scroll wrap with the solid lubricant that suggested in the preceding research, and then have performed analysis of performance characteristics for the part. As a result, we could obtain the 7.66μm of the coating thickness, Ra 0.8μm of the surface roughness and 0.088 of the friction coefficient. These represent the satisfactory capability of the suggested solid lubricant for the scroll type air compressor.

This paper presents a new concept to reduce turbulent frictional drag by injecting micro-bubble into near the buffer layer of turbulent boundary layer on flat plate. The concentrations of micro bubble distribution in the boundary was calculater by eddy viscosity equations in the governing equations. When near region of the buffer layer of turbulent boundary layer is filled with micro-bulle of air and viscous of the region is kept low, the velocity profile in the near region should be changed substantially. Then the Reynolds stress in the region becomes less, which guide to lower velocity gradient there. It results in reduction of velocity gradient at the viscous sublayer, which gives the reduction of shear stress at the wall.

사장교 케이블은 초기 큰 인장력으로 축강성이 매우 크지만, 횡방향 휨강성은 약하다. 풍하중이나 교통하중은 케이블을 심각하게 진동시켜 사장교의 사용성에 부정적 영향을 끼친다. 그러므로 장대교량에 감쇠장치를 설치하는 진동 저감 계획이 절실히 요구된다. 마찰댐퍼는 교통하중이나 풍하중과 같은 동적하중이 작용하는 케이블 진동에서 진폭과 지속시간을 대폭 감소시킬 수 있는 효과적인 장치임을 알 수 있다. 케이블 진동은 댐퍼제작방법과 설치위치 및 형상에 따라 효율이 달라질 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 본 실험연구의 마찰댐퍼 설치전 후 제진성능효과 분석결과는 향후 사장케이블의 진동을 저감시키는 기본 자료로 활용할 수 있다.
