This paper presents an approximate synthesis of 5-SS multi link suspension for 2 D.O.F motions. In the proposed synthesis method, alteration curves of camber, toe, kingpin and caster angles are optimized during the bump rebound and the steering motions. And joint positions can be located within desired boundari es. Especially, steering motions are considered for control of kingpin offset and caster trail. Prescribed motions contain both wheel center positions and imaginary kingpin axes in the multi link type suspension. Constraint equations are formulated with di splacement matrix and velocity matrix using instantaneous screw axis.

VTR(Video Tape Recorder) has very complicated mechanisms composed of various cams, links, gears and so on. To satisfy kinematic requirements of VTR components, various geometric constraints between rigid bodies and a translational cam design program are developed. Mechanisms of VTR are divided into functional groups like a control part, a loading part and a tape guide part. Each group is modeled for kinematic and dynamic analysis. Finally, all groups are combined together for a complete VTR model and loads required for each function of VTR controls are studied. Detailed description of developed programs are presented and result are discussed.

This paper proposes a novel fault-tolerant gait planning of a hexapod robot considering kinematic constraints. The failure concerned in this paper is a locked joint failure for which a joint in a leg cannot move and is locked in place. It is shown that the conventional fault-tolerant gait of a hexapod robot for forward walking on even terrain may be fallen into deadlock, depending on the configuration of the failed leg. For coping with such deadlock situation, a novel fault-tolerant gait planning is proposed. It can avoid deadlock by adjusting the position of the foot trajectory, and has the same leg sequence and stride length as those of the conventional fault-tolerant gait. To demonstrate the superiority of the proposed scheme, a case study is presented in which a hexapod robot, having walked over even terrain before a locked joint failure, could avoid deadlock and continue its walking by the proposed fault-tolerant gait planning.

Ship is a huge system including a variety of pipe arrangements. Pipes are installed according to the design layout, however the end poistion of pipes are not well matched owing to its measurement and construction errors. In this situation, the customized pipe fitting is frequently designed to connect with both pipes, the position of which are manually measured. This paper focused that these two coordinates are measured by point cloud from RGBD sensor and the relative transformation induced by positional and orientational differences is calculated by inverse kinematics in robotics theory. Therefore, the result applies for the methodology of the pipe connection design. The pipe coordinate that is estimated by the matching and the probabilistic RANSAC method will be verified by experiments. The kinematic design parameters are computationally calculated by using the minimum degree of freedom that connects both pipe coordinates.

The determination of the direct kinematics of the parallel mechanism is a difficult problem but has to be solved for any practical use. This paper presents the efficient formulation of the direct kinematics for double parallel robot arm. The robot arm consists of two parallel mechanism, which generate positional and orientational motions, respectively. These motions are decoupled by a passive central axis which is composed of four revolute joints and one prismatic joint. For a set of given lengths of linear actuators, the direct kinematics will find the joint displacements of th central axis from geometric constraints in each parallel mechanism. Then the joint displacements will be converted into the position and the orientation of the end effector of the robot arm. The proposed formulation is decoupled and compacted so that it will be implemented as a real-time direct kinematics. With the proposed formulation, we analyze the motion of the double parallel robot and show its characteristics. Specially, we investigate the workspace in terms of positional space as well as orientational space.

This work deals with development of effective redundancy resolution algorithms for the motion control of manipulator. Differently from the typical kinematically redundant robots that are attached to the fixed ground, the ZMP condition should be taken into account in the manipulator motion in order to guarantee the system stability. In this paper, a new motion planning algorithm for redundant manipulator not fixed to the ground is introduced. A sequential redundancy resolution algorithm is proposed, which ensures the ZMP (Zero Moment Point) stability, the planned operational motion, and additional sub-criteria such as joint limit index. A geometric constraint equation derived by reshaping the existing ZMP equation enables one to employ the sequential redundancy algorithm. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulating a redundant manipulator model.

A common task in assembly modeling is the determination of the position and orientation of a set of components by solving the spatial relationships between them. Assembly models could be constructed at various levels of abstraction. They could be classified into component or geometry-level assembly models. The geometry-level assembly design approach using mating constraints such as against and fits is widely used in the commercial modelers, but it may be very tedious in some cases fur designer. In this paper, we propose a new method to construct an assembly model at the component-level by extracting joint mating features from the kinematics constraints specified between components. The assembly model constructed using the proposed method includes hierarchical and relational assembly models, component/sub-assembly positions and degrees of freedom information. The proposed method is more intuitive and natural way of assembly design and it guarantees the topological robustness of assembly modification such as component replacement and modification.

This paper discusses an energy system that can convert wave energy into electrical energy. This wave energy generation system is movable and has 12 arms and one generator. A multibody dynamic model for this system is established by using kinematic constraints. A gear mechanism, several kinematic constraints, and force elements are included in the model. Wave forces are obtained numerically from the time domain formulation based on the Morison equation. The MSC/ADAMS program is employed to carry out dynamic analysis of the wave energy generation system. The dynamic behavior responses of this system are analyzed for design verification. According to the results of the dynamic analysis, the yaw motion is relatively stable and kinetic energy sufficient to generate electrical energy is obtained when the wave height exceeds 1m.

철강 구조물의 용접기술에 있어 용접부의 신속성을 좌우하는 가장 중요한 요소는 용접균열에 관한 문제와 용접본드부의 취화에 관한 문제로 요약될 수 있다. 일반적으로 용접부 및 그 근방의 금속은 국부적으로 매우 높은 온도까지 급열된 후 급냉되므로, 용접부에서 각종균열의 발성 위험성이 높아지고 용접본드부를 취화하여 파양인성의 저하를 초래하게 된다. 따라서 이러한 문 제점을 극복하기 위해서는 재료의 선택이나 설계, 시공, 검사의 각 단계에서 충분한 검토가 필 요하다. 특히 최근 들어 이전보다 높은 강도의 고장력강재가 널리 사용되고 구조물의 대형화에 따라 구속조건이 증대되며 구조물의 사용 조건은 더욱 가혹 화함에 따라 상술한 문제점은 더욱 중요시되고 있다. 철강 용접부에 발생하는 균열은 용접시공시 발생되는 균열과 용접완료후 구 조물 사용중에 발생되는 균열로 대별될 수 있다. 용접시공중 발생되는 균열은 용접열싸이클로 인해 생성되는 조직, 석출물등의 치금학적 요인과 잔유응력 또는 구속응력등의 역학적 요인이 중첩됨으로서 발생된다. 또한 사용중 발생되는 균열은 상기의 두 가지 요인이외에 환경적 요인이 첨가되어 발생된다고 볼 수 있다. 이상과 같은 용접균열을 방지하기 위해서는 실 구조물 용접 조립시의 각종 조건을 재현한 시험법을 통해 용접균열 발생의 한계조건을 정량적으로 분석할 필요가 있다. 이러한 균열 시험의 결과, 적정한 용접 시공 조건이 도출될 수 있기 때문이다. 이와 같은 필요성에 의해 지금까지 다수의 용접균열 시험법에 관한 연구가 행하여져 왔고 그 중에는 각 국가의 협회나 학회의 규격으로 확립된 것도 많으며 국제규격으로 되어 있는 것도 있다. 본 고에서는 각종균열들에 대한 지금까지 밝혀진 기구들에 대해 해설하고, 그 각각에 적용되고 있는 시험법들에 대해 소개하고저 한다.C1지구의 공업.생활용수는 103units, 33units로 배분되고, 하류지구에 304units로 배분되었다. 따라서 용도별로 물배분하므로서 금호강 하루지역에 더욱 많은 물을 배분할 수 있음을 알았다.통해서 수위-유량관계(rating curve)를 규명하였다. 시험지구의 관개효율 및 용수손실 규명 등에 관한 기본자료를 수집하기 위해서는 계측시스템의 운영은 장기간으로 지속 되어야 한다며, 전기전도도와 토양수 농도, 전기전도도와 함수량의 관계를 이용한 천이상태의 오염원 농도 측정방법을 개발하였다. 특히 제안식에서는 한계함수량의 개념을 도입하여 전기전도도와 함수량관계를 추정하므로 추정식의 실험값 반영 정도를 증가시켰다. 본 연구에서 제안된 식을 이용하여 추정된 전기전도도와 함수량관계는 다른 제안식에 비하여 개선된 결과를 보여 주었고, 본 연구에서 개발한 오염원 농도 측정법을 이용하여 측정한 결과 함수량이 0.15이하에서는 측정오차가 크지만 함수량이 0.15이상일 경우 매우 좋은 결과를 보였는데 질량평형을 검토한 결과 약 5-10%의 오차율을 보였다. 따라서 본 논문에서 개발된 천이상태의 오염원 농도측정법은 용존 오염물질의 이송에 관한 정확한 실험을 제공할 것으로 판단된다.며, 수질 보전적-환경 보전 차원에서 저수관리 체계를 확고히 할 수 있는 방안을 강구하여야 할 것이다.펄스주입법에 의해 증착된 박박은 강유전성 이력을 나타내었다.지역과 비도시지역을 비교하는 조사 연구가 필요하며, 이러한 조사결과를 바탕으로 자녀의 식습관에 대한 교육을 위한 교재, 교구의 개발과 영양, 식습관 교육프로그램의 개발을 통해 가정과 학교에서 부모와 교사가 자녀의 식생활 지도 관리를 돕고 가정과 교육기관이 연계한 교육 프로그램이 활성화 될 수 있도록 지속적인 관심을 기울여 나가야 할 것이며, 이에 따른

This paper proposes an assessment method using probability-based index for safe and successful underwater docking of autonomous underwater vehicles(AUVs) to the docking stations(DSs). The proposed method assesses the probability of docking according to the degree to which the state of the AUV is consistent with the state criteria for docking. The assessment is performed within a specific area considering the kinematic constraints and docking plans of the AUV. The assessment process is defining probability density function, calculating probabilities for reaching the docking station according to the difference to position and heading criteria, and computing the probability-based index in real-time. We verify the validity of the proposed method through analyzing the data acquired on operation test.
