LNG makes cryogenic conditions, so metals without low-temperature brittleness must be used. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) defines 9% Nickel steel, STS304L, 36% Nickel steel and Al5083 as metals that can be used in cryogenic conditions through the IGC Code. In this study, Al5083-O was studied to minimize welding distortion, and verified through finite element analysis and experiments. The block dumping method, which is advantageous in terms of analysis time and cost, was used, not the continuous heat source method. The constraint models with the thickness direction and the tensile force model were compared with the reference model, it was confirmed that the tensile force model had no significant effect. After verifying through the experiment, it was confirmed that the trend of the finite element analysis model was consistent with the experiment. Through this study, a welding distortion minimization model could be found with the block dumping method. It is judged that simulation of many models through short time analysis will be of great help in the field.

This study investigated the microstructure and tensile properties of a recently made block-type Ni-Cr-Al powder porous material. The block-type powder porous material was made by stacking multiple layers of powder porous thin plates with post-processing such as additional compression and sintering. This study used block-type powder porous materials with two different cell sizes: one with an average cell size of 1,200 μm (1200 foam) and the other with an average cell size of 3,000 μm (3000 foam). The γ-Ni and γ’-Ni3Al were identified as the main phases of both materials. However, in the case of the 1,200 foam, a β-NiAl phase was additionally observed. The relative density of each block-type powder porous material, with 1200 foam and 3000 foam, was measured to be 5.78% and 2.93%, respectively. Tensile tests were conducted with strain rates of 10−2~10−4 sec−1. The test result showed that the tensile strength of the 1,200 foam was 6.0~7.1 MPa, and that of 3,000 foam was 3.0~3.3 MPa. The elongation of the 3,000 foam was higher (~9%) than that (~2%) of the 1,200 foam. This study also discussed the deformation behavior of block-type powder porous material through observations of the fracture surface, with the results above.

This research aim concerns questioning how we can generate environments suggestive of nature fused with built environments through textiles. Through literature reviews and experiments with available the 3D imaging techniques of Holography, Lenticular and other new technologies, We have researched towards finding the most effective method for 3D imaging techniques for textile applications. This objective is to produce intriguing textile patterns and images in which the objects and colours change as viewpoints change. Experimental work was carried out in collaboration with professional textile researchers, scientists, artists and designers conducting research in this field.
