Lightweight Design and Dynamic Verification of Multi-layer Sarrus Deployable Structures for Rotor-sail under Centrifugal Loading
Chan Kim, Sun-Pill Jung, JangGil Kim, Kyu-Jin Cho
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2025;42(12):1099-1106.
Published online December 1, 2025
DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/JKSPE.025.109
This study presents a vertically deployable rotor-sail structure utilizing multi-layer Sarrus linkages. The structure fully extends during sailing to maximize Magnus lift and compresses to less than half its length for docking. An analytical beam model integrates link thickness, mid part spacing, and centrifugal loading to predict deflection and mass. Parametric comparisons of two-layer, six-layer, and twelve-layer configurations reveal that the twelve-layer design reduces structural mass by 90% while meeting an L/1000 deflection limit. Dynamic simulations using RecurDyn confirm that mid part segmentation decreases damping time and reduces peak stress, thus enhancing deployability and mechanical reliability. The findings offer quantitative design guidance for high-speed rotating deployable structures.

Korean Terminologies for Additive Manufacturing according to the ISO/ASTM 52900 Standard
In Hwan Lee, Ho-Chan Kim, Dong-Gyu Ahn
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2020;37(12):929-936.
Published online December 1, 2020

Additive manufacturing processes have been called by a wide variety of terms since the early days of development. As these names are often mixed academically and industrially, the demand for standardization of terms has gradually increased. Accordingly, the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) are in the process of establishing standards for the names and definitions of important terms related to additive manufacturing. Although Korea has also begun to establish KS standards based on ISO/ASTM standards, the Korean language and definitions of important terms related to additive manufacturing as defined by ISO/ASTM have not been fully organized. Therefore, the similar terms defined in ISO/ASTM in many academic and industrial literature are called by various Korean terms. Thus, this work deals with suggestions on the Korean terminologies and standardization of important terms related to additive manufacturing based on ISO/ASTM standards. Especially, this paper deals with the Additive Manufacturing and seven sub-process classifications.

Jung Woong Kim, Sean Jhin Yoon, Hyun Chan Kim, Youngmin Yun, Jaehwan Kim
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2018;35(12):1163-1168.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/KSPE.2018.35.12.1163
Silicon nitride/cobalt tungsten boride (SiN/CoWB) passivation layer improves mass transport rate at copper thin film layers of semiconductor wafers after chemical mechanical polishing process. This study evaluates mass transport at the interface between copper and passivation layers by stress relaxation method, followed by deduction of interface diffusivity via a kinetic model. For comparison, SiN/CoWB, SiN, silicon carbon nitride (SiCN) and silicon carbide (SiC) passivation layers are introduced. A thin layer of SiN/CoWB demonstrates an outstanding performance as diffusion retarding material, especially at high temperature. The order of stress relaxation in terms of passivation layers is SiN/CoWB < SiN < SiCN < SiC, implying the order of mass transport at the interface. Using the kinetic model, the diffusivities and activation energies regarding passivation layers are calculated and reveal a good agreement with experimental results.

Additive Fabrication of Flexible Tactile Sensor using Improved Pressure Sensitive Material
In Hwan Lee, Yong Sun Choi, Ho-Chan Kim
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2018;35(9):841-845.
Published online September 1, 2018
DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/KSPE.2018.35.9.841
A tactile sensor is a device that collects pressure information from its environment. However, the sensors mimicking a human’s sensory system have not been sufficiently developed for practical application. It is noted that planar flexible tactile sensors have sufficient elasticity and flexibility for attachment to non-planar surfaces. But, they are subjected to an initial strain when attached to a non-planar surface. Therefore an additional calibration process is required. In this study, the fabrication process of a non-planar flexible tactile sensor is proposed, using a direct writing technology as well as an additive manufacturing technology. A curved elastic sensor body was fabricated using mold by the use of a layer-by-layer process. Moreover, the pressure sensitive material which is composed of MWCNTs and PDMA, was dispensed using a direct writing technology. The non-planar flexible tactile sensor was fabricated and tested in terms of an external pressure.

3D printing technology was developed in the early 1990s, and continues to grow to the present day. Globally, 3D printing technology developed as processing technology, but now progresses to various application technologies. Korea had an initial interest in overseas 3D printing technology, but the first prototype industries were limited. Recently, 3D printing technology has been attracting attention as a future technology, and the interest of people and research have been greatly increased. In Korea, it is known that many researches related to 3D printing are performed recently. However, it is true that research on the quantitative counting of specific research fields and analysis has not been sufficiently reviewed. Therefore, this paper introduces study results to understand trends of 3D printing research in Korea and to extract the mainstream fields, focusing on the articles published in Korean journals. This paper shows various indexes, such as the number of papers per year, as well as research fields and tendency of increases and decreases calculated and introduced with this topic.

An Air Pocket Glove for Finger Rehabilitation and Quantitative Assessment of Hemiplegic Patients
Ju-Seon Yoon, Young-Chan Kim, Mi-Ju Kim, Jae-Hyo Kim
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2018;35(8):817-823.
Published online August 1, 2018
DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/KSPE.2018.35.8.817
This paper proposes an air pocket glove for finger rehabilitation and diagnosis of hemiplegic patients after stroke. This device consists of pneumatic actuators that expand when air is injected from a pump motor, silicone flexors that act as artificial finger tendons, film-type bending sensors, and a pressure sensor. As air enters the glove, the actuators are expanded, thus stretching out paralyzed fingers. We designed two different rehabilitation modes: continuous passive motion (CPM) mode and master-slave mode, where the motions of the unaffected fingers are duplicated in the affected fingers. We conducted an experiment to test the validity of the device for each mode. In CPM mode, the patient’s spasticity level was estimated from finger angle and air pressure. Our results showed that spasticity level decreased 13% from the initial level after rehabilitation. With the master-slave mode, EMG signals were additionally measured and compared to those found during conventional therapy, which revealed a positive effect stemming from voluntary involvement in the exercise. As a result, EMG energy was shown to increase up to 18% during master-slave mode.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/KSPE.2017.34.8.575
Polyacrylamide (PAM) was used for matrix material to fabricate composite hydrogels reinforced with natural cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). Invoking in situ free-radical polymerization with different concentration of cellulose nanocrystal, polyacrylamide hydrogels were fabricated. The chemical structure, compression strength, morphology and dielectric properties of the composite hydrogels were investigated. The CNC played a role as a reinforcing filler and a multifunctional cross-linker in the hydrogel. The elastic modulus and dielectric property of the composite hydrogels increased as increasing the CNC concentration. The electrical actuation test of the PAM/CNC hydrogel shows its possibility for soft electro-active materials for active lens.

Development of Innovative Light Water Reactor Nuclear Fuel Using 3D Printing Technology
Hyo Chan Kim, Hyun Gil Kim, Yong Sik Yang
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2016;33(4):279-286.
Published online April 1, 2016
To enhance the safety of nuclear reactors after the Fukushima accident, researchers are developing various types of accident tolerant fuel (ATF) to increase the coping time and reduce the generation of hydrogen by oxidation. Coated cladding, an ATF concept, can be a promising technology in view of its commercialization. We applied 3D printing technology to the fabrication of coated cladding as well as of coated pellets. Direct metal tooling (DMT) in 3D printing technologies can create a coated layer on the tubular cladding surface, which maintains stability during corrosion, creep, and wear in the reactor. A 3D laser coating apparatus was built, and parameter studies were carried out. To coat pellets with erbium using this apparatus, we undertook preliminary experiments involving metal pellets. The adhesion test showed that the coated layer can be maintained at near fracture strength.

Hyun-Chan Kim, Sungryl Yun, Hyun-U Ko, Jaehwan Kim
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2015;32(8):743-748.
Published online August 1, 2015
This paper reports the enhanced fabrication and characterization of a 3 × 3 array tactile actuator composed of cellulose acetate. The array tactile actuator, with dimensions of 15 × 15 × 1 ㎣, consists of 9 pillar-supported cells made from a cellulose-acetate molding. The fabrication process and performance test along with the results for the suggested actuator are explained. To improve the cell-array fabrication, a laser cut was adopted after the molding process. The displacement of the unit cell increased the input voltage and frequency. Various top masses are added onto the actuator to mimic the touch force, and the acceleration of the actuator is measured under actuation. When 2 kV is applied to the actuator, the maximum acceleration is 0.64 g, which is above the vibrotactile threshold. The actuation mechanism is associated with the electrostatic force between the top and bottom electrodes.

Hyun Woo Dang, Hyung Chan Kim, Jeong Beom Ko, Young Jin Yang, Bong Su Yang, Kyung Hyun Choi, Yang Hoi Doh
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2014;31(6):483-489.
Published online June 1, 2014
In this study, experiments were conducted for micro pattern printing to combine solution atomization process and stencil printing based on electrospray deposition. The stencil mask fabricated by etching the photosensitive glass placed below 0.3 mm distance to substrate has 100 um line width. The process parameters of electrospray deposition system for the atomization of the solution are applied voltage and supply flow rate of the solution. Meniscus angle of cone-jet was optimized by varying the supply flow rate from 0.3 ml/hr to 0.7 ml/hr. Voltage condition was verified having symmetric cone-jet angle and no pulsation at 8.5 kV applied voltage. In addition, a number of micro patterns are printed using a single 1 step process by solution atomization process. Variable line width of approximate 100 um was confirmed by changing conditions of solution atomization regardless of the pattern size of stencil mask.

Jeong Beom Ko, Hyung Chan Kim, Hyun Woo Dang, Young Jin Yang, Kyung Hyun Choi, Yang Hoi Doh
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2014;31(1):83-90.
Published online January 1, 2014
EHD (electro-hydro-dynamics) patterning was performed under atmospheric pressure at room temperature in a single step. The drop diameter smaller than nozzle diameter and applied high viscosity conductive ink in EHD patterning method provide a clear advantage over the piezo and thermal inkjet printing techniques. The micro electrode pattern was printed by continuous EHD patterning method using 3-type control parameters (input voltage, patterning speed, nozzle pressure). High viscosity (1000cps) conductive ink with 75wt% of silver nanoparticles was used. EHD cone type nozzle having an internal diameter of 50μm was used for experimentation. EHD jetting mode by input voltage and applied 1st order linear regression in stable jet mode was analyzed. The stable jet was achieved at the amplitude of 1.4~1.8 kV. 10μm micro electrode pattern was created at optimized parameters (input voltage 1.6kV, patterning speed 25mm/sec and nozzle pressure -2.3kPa).

Young Jin Yang, Jeong Beom Ko, Hyun Woo Dang, Hyung Chan Kim, Kyung Hyun Choi, Kyung Ho Cho
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2012;29(4):455-460.
Published online April 1, 2012
The Electrostatic Inkjet system has many applications in cost and time effective manufacturing of printed electronics like RFIDs, OLEDs and flexible displays etc. This paper presents pneumatic ink supply system for an electrohydrodynamic deposition (EHD) setup for the precise pressure control to produce a small amount of discharge at the end of the capillary. The meniscus shape depends upon the applied pneumatic pressure to the ink supply system. Furthermore, this paper also compares meniscus shapes at different applied pneumatic pressures. It is concluded that patterning of constant line-width can be achieved better by controlling the meniscus shape using this technique.
