In this study, the effects of various disk shapes of hydrant on the pressure drop are experimentally and numerically analyzed. The test methods for measuring pressure drop of hydrant are comply with standard of Underwriters Laboratory (UL). The hydrant as used in this study has one inlet, diameter 150 mm, and three outlet, 114.3 mm diameter for one outlet and 63.5 mm diameter for the others. The pressure of the hydrant are measured in the range 760 L/min~2,270 L/min for 63.5 mm outlet and 3,030 L/min~6,060 L/min for 114.3 mm outlet. Also, the numerical results of pressure drop are compared with the experiments to verify the accuracy and to analyze the of various valve shape of hydrant on the pressure drop. The engineering parameters, flow coefficients, are reduced from 181.57 to 136.35 ($L/min/kPa^{0.5}$) with inclined angle of disk from $0^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$. These results are able to practical use for design hydrant to minimize pressure drop.

This paper presents the thermo-elastic analysis for searching the behavior of carbon/carbon brake system during the braking period and the 3-D stress analysis to find the shape of the brake disk which is safe to the failure. The mechanical properties of the carbon/carbon brake disk were measured for both in-plane and out of plane directions. The mechanical properties were used as the input of the thermo-elastic analysis and 3-dimensional stress analysis for the brake disk. The gap between rotor clip and clip retainer is an important parameter in the loading transfer mechanism of the rotor disk. The change of gap was considered both the mechanical deformation and thermal deformation. Because the rotor clip and clip retainers were not contacted, they were excluded from the analysis model. Rotor disk was modeled by using the cyclic symmetry condition. The contact problems between rotor clip and key drum as well as between rotor disk and rotor were considered. From the results of the 3-D stress analysis, the stress concentration at the key hole of the brake disk was confirmed. The stress distributions were studied thor the variation of the rotation angle of the contact surface and the radius of curvature at the key hole part.

The speed competition of optical disk drive has been accelerated with the fast advancement of its storage density and data transmission technology. The continuous increase of the spinning speed of CD meets the unexpected and catastrophic failure of disk during the operation. The effect of its thickness and outer radius of disk were investigated to reduce stresses and J-integral around the crack tip. The effect of its thickness was considered ahead of the crack tip. In the effect of outer radius of disk, linear elastic fracture mechanics was used to obtain the critical crack length, which indicates the onset length for unstable crack growth. This approach is so significant as to detect the growing crack by disk drive before the catastrophic failure, which will provide the standard size of its safety for high-speed disk drive.

자동차의 경음기는 보행자나 다른 차량에게 경고를 보내기 위해 필요한 장치로 너무 작은 소리를 내는 경우에는 경고를 전달할 수 없는 문제점이 생기고, 너무 큰 소리를 내는 경우에는 소음피해를 주게 된다. 경음기의 소리 크기 뿐만 아니라 음색 또한 무시할 수 없는 중요한 인자라 할 수 있는데 이것은 경고음에 대한 사람의 반응에 영향을 줄 뿐만 아니라 자동차에 대한 고객들의 감성적인 평가에 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 자동차용 디스크 타입 경음기의 특징을 이해하기 위해 진동 및 음향특성에 관한 실험을 수행하였고, 이를 기반으로 전자기적, 기계적인 힘의 상호관계를 바탕으로 FEM, BEM 등의 방법으로 해석하였으며, 경음기의 소음 진동 특성을 시뮬레이션하였다. 이를 바탕으로 경음기의 형상 인자와 경음기의 소음 특성간의 관계를 해석하여 진동판과 방사판의 형상에 따른 주파수 특성관계를 도출하였다.

Disk grinding was often applied to deburring process in order to enhance the final product quality. Inherent chamfering capability of the flexible disk grinding process in the early stage was analyzed with respect to various process parameters including workpiece length, wheel speed, depth of cut and feed. Initial chamfered edge defined as arc zone was characterized with local radius of curvature. Averaged radius and arc zone ratio was well evaluated using neural network system. Additional neural network analysis adding workpiece length showed enhance performance in predicting arc zone ratio and curvature radius with reduced error rate. A process condition design parameter was estimated using remaining input and output parameters with the prediction error rate lower than 2.0% depending on the relevant input parameter combination and neural network structure composition.

Accurately controlling the shape of the read/write head structure is critical in the performance of a modem hard disk drive. The sliders investigated are composed of alumina and titanium carbide(AITiC) and act as an air bearing when passing over the disks. Controlling the curvature of the slider is of primary importance. A laser scribing system that produces curvature by inducing residual stress into the slider can be utilized. Predicting the curvature created by a pattern of scribes is of great importance to increase the control over the sliders' shape. The force system that produces stresses similar to the laser scribing is applied to the finite element analysis model. The curvatures created by the force system are calibrated to experimental measurements.

국내 농업인구 감소 대비 식품소비량이 증가함에 따라 농가의 인력을 대체하고 다양한 작업이 가능하며 가격이 저렴한 국내 기계화 기술이 필요하다. 무동력 디스크해로우 작업기는 경운과 배토가 가능한 복합작업기로서 작업기를 구성하는 주요 구성품들은 필드작업에 의해 발생되는 하중에 구조적 강도와 신뢰성이 충분히 확보되어야 한다. 또한, 실제로 필드 작업 시 작업기에 걸리는 하중은 복합하중 형태로 전달되기 때문에 단순한 형태 하중에 비해 하중계측에 어려운 점이 있으므로 하중계측점의 선정이 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 하중계측점을 선정하기 위하여 복합기의 주요 구성품인 치즐(chisel) 및 디스크해로우암(disk harrow arm)에 대하여 구조해석을 수행하였으며, 3축 방향의 단위하중 응력 계산결과로부터 load reconstruction을 위한 스트레인 게이지 위치를 선정하였다. 또한, 스트레인 게이지의 신호가 하중해석에 적절한 값이 되도록 기존의 형상을 수정하였다.

This study aims to evaluate cutter acting forces as well as axial stresses and torques in the shaft of two kinds of disc cutters including a single disc cutter and a double disc cutter with the same cutter ring geometry in a series of linear cutting tests. From the tests, the mean values of normal forces and rolling forces acting on the double disc cutter were approximately twice as high as those from the single disc cutter. Similarly, the mean values of axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter were also twice as high as those from the single disc cutter even though the comparisons of torques from two kinds of disc cutters were insignificant since they showed very low values. However, it is necessary to take the durability of a tapered roller bearing used for the double disc cutter into high consideration since the average normal force from the double disc cutter exceeds the allowable force for a disc cutter with the diameter of 432 mm (17 inches). Finally, there is no practical problem in terms of axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter since they are much lower than the yielding stress of the cutter shaft material, even though the axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter are approximately twice as high as those from the single disc cutter.

Optimum cross-sectional shape of an automotive disc brake was developed based on FEM thermal analyses and the Taguchi method. Frictional heat flux and convection heat transfer coefficients were first calculated using equations and applied to the disc to calculate accurate temperature distribution and thermal deformations under realistic braking conditions. Maximum stress was generated in an area with highest temperature under pads and near the hat of ventilated disc and vanes. The SN ratio from Taguchi method and MINITAB was applied to obtain the optimum cross-sectional design of a disc brake on the basis of thermal deformations. The optimum cross-section of a disc can reduce thermal deformation by 15.2 % compared to the initial design.
