펄스 GMAW의 공정 파라미터에 관한 연구
No full text학위논문(석사) - 한국과학기술원 : 기계공학전공, 2010.2, [ iv, 55 p. ]The pinch instability theory (PIT) is applied to calculate the detaching drop size and time in the spray mode, which occurs in Multi drop one pulse (MDOP) condition. The PIT calculates the critical wavelength of current-conducting liquid cylinder in closed-form equation of current, surface tension and wire diameter and the molten tip of wire is assumed as the infinite cylinder of uniform radius. The predicted results show considerable discrepancy with the experimental data. The PIT is modified in this work to simulate drop transfer by deriving the critical wavelength of the modified PIT, which includes the effective cylinder radius, finite cylinder geometry and current leakage. The effects of the modifications on drop transfer are analyzed and the predicted results of the modified PIT are compared with experimental data.
Force displacement model (FDM) is applied to predict the effects of power source response characteristics on drop transfer and process parameters of one-drop one-pulse (ODOP) condition are calculated assuming the rectangular, trapezoidal and modified waveform. The predicted results show reasonable agreement with the available experimental data.한국과학기술원 : 기계공학전공
Analysis of Spray Mode Using Modified Pinch Instability Theory
No full textWhile the pinch instability theory (PIT) has been widely employed to analyze the spray transfer mode in
the gas metal arc welding (GMAW), it cannot predict the detaching drop size accurately. The PIT is
modified in this work to increase the accuracy of prediction and to simulate the molten tip geometry to be
more physically acceptable. Since the molten tip becomes a cone shape in the spray mode, the effective
wire diameter is formulated that the effective diameter is inversely proportional to current square.
Modifications are also made to consider the finite length of the liquid column and current leakage through
the arc. While the effective diameter influences drop transfer significantly, the current leakage has negligible
effects. The effects of modifications on drop transfer are analyzed, and the predicted drop diameters show
good agreements with the experimental data of the steel wire
Pursuing sustainability development goals through adopting gender equality: women representation in leadership positions of emerging market multinationals
No full textThis study examines the competitive disadvantages rationale behind the pursuing of Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) by emerging market multinational corporations (EM-MNCs) in foreign markets. We argue that EM-MNCs may pursue gender equality goal in host markets as a legitimation strategy to offset their strategic disadvantages inherited from the home markets. Based on a sample of foreign subsidiaries from 10 major emerging countries from 2010 to 2020, this study finds strong evidence demonstrating that the institutional quality of home markets exerts a positive effect on the representation of women in leadership positions of EM-MNCs. Additional analyses demonstrate that international experience and institutional ownership further magnify this effect
Institutional voids, liability of origin, and presence of women in TMT of emerging market multinationals
No full textThis study examines the association between the pervasiveness of institutional voids in emerging markets and the inclusion of women in top management teams (TMTs) by emerging market multinational corporations (EMNCs) as a legitimation strategy. Leveraging institutional theory, we argue that EMNCs increase women presence in TMTs as a legitimation strategy to overcome the challenges of stakeholders' skepticism in foreign markets by disassociating themselves from the image of their home markets. Using a subsidiary level dataset of 1047 EMNCs from 26 emerging countries between 2009 and 2018, we find robust evidence indicating that the pervasiveness of institutional voids at home is positively related to the percentage of women in TMT's EMNCs' foreign units. This effect is particularly stronger for firms operating in countries with high institutional gender parity and low level of corruption
Global insights on TMT gender diversity in controversial industries: a legitimacy perspective
No full textFirms in controversial industries such as tobacco, alcohol, gambling, weapon, and nuclear power suffer organizational legitimacy problems. These firms, therefore, adopt various strategies to acquire legitimacy. Drawing on institutional theory, we conceptualize the top management team (TMT) gender diversity as a legitimacy-seeking strategy and examines how a firm’s belonging to a controversial sector affects TMT gender diversity. Based on a cross-country sample of 1542 firms operating in controversial industries from 34 countries and control sample with another set of 1542 similar-sized firms from non-controversial industries, the empirical evidence shows that belonging to a controversial industry exerts a positive impact on TMT gender diversity. The effect of industry belonging on TMT gender diversity is positively moderated by institutional gender parity and a low level of corruption. It indicates that institutional factors act as emancipative forces that foster women's empowerment. Taken together, our results for moderating variables highlight the role of institutional characteristics in supporting women empowerment initiatives
