L/UL(Load/unload) mechanism has been widely used in SFF(Small form factor) HDD because L/UL technology has many advantages such as an increase of areal density, reduction of power consumption and improvement of shock resistance. In this system, the most important design goal is no slider-disk contact and fast air-hearing breaking during L/UL process. To do so, we should consider many design parameters related to L/UL system. The ramp shape is the most dominant component among parameters which dramatically affect the L/UL performance. This paper makes an advanced ramp model using ANSYS/LS-DYNA. Through this FE model, this paper investigates the effect of initial ramp slope and location of air-bearing breaking. From the experiment for three different ramps, we also verify that experimental results agree with simulation results. We conclude that the ramp design should have small ramp slope at the moment which a suspension tap contacts with ramp and large ramp slope after air-bearing breaking in order to improve L/UL Performance.

The outer tie rod is one of the part of steering system, the optimization process was executed to find the lightweight design. The inner tie rod was considered in the optimum design of an outer tie rod. it could be closer to the test condition than in the case of considering outer tie rod only. The aluminum forging material was considered as a weight reduction proposal. The target of optimization was the shape of the minimum weight to resist at the load of buckling. RSM and Kriging interpolation method were applied as a optimization method to consider the nonlinear shape optimization problem. Then, 16.3%, 16.6% of weight reduction was obtained from the result comparing with that of the initial model. The results of meta model optimization was compared with that of finite element method. The error values of buckling load estimation were 2.6%, 2.04%. and those of weight estimation were 0.17%, 0.13%. Therefore, it seemed that the result of Kriging model could be obtained closer to optimum value than that of RSM model.

대형 수력발전소의 수문을 조절하는 데에 사용되는 초대형 액추에이터는 2개의 액추에이터를 동기 시켜야 하므로 이동거리를 정확히 측정하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 이를 위하여 초대형 액추에이터에는 위치센서를 사용하고, 종류에는 와이어형, 롤러형, 자기형 등이 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 자기저항의 차이를 이용하여 액추에이터의 위치를 측정하는 인덕턴스형 위치센서의 특성을 계산하였다. 자기저항의 차이를 발생시키기 위해서 피스톤 로드의 표면에 파는 홈의 크기와 형상을 변화시키면서 인덕턴스형 위치센서에 적합한 형상을 찾아보았다.

A shock absorber rod is located in the center of the absorber piston and is responsible for the reciprocating movement portion. If it has surface defects, the damping performance of product will be adversely affected. A rod surface has gloss by heat treatment. Therefore, it is difficult to find a defect, such as dust, imprints, and blowholes. Because a total inspection is achieved by visual inspection by workers, it causes eyestrain and the quality of the product is not constant. In this paper, a machine vision system was developed to find a defect using a line-scan camera. The machine can detect surface defects than 0.3mm. To minimize the occurrence probability of defects on the inspection process, the developed auto inspection system had an automatic feeding system and incorporated a protection system. Through the development of this system, which relies on the operator's visual inspection of the surface of the shock absorber, the Rod inspection system constructed quality inspection standards and standardized tests to ensure improved reliability.

Outer tie rod is lighter than other, but there is the trend item weight and the number is increasing due to vehicle performance improvement. Thus, to improve vehicle fuel efficiency, weight lightening is essential. Therefore, this research performed the finite element analysis to investigate the structural performance of the outer tie rod for an electrical vehicle. This study was performed as the preliminary study for a lightweight design of the outer tie rod. The weight of outer tie rod was optimized by adopting the steel material and applying the trial and error method. The strengths due to durability and buckling should be considered in the structural design of an outer tie rod. Furthermore, the meta model-based optimization was applied to obtain its lightweight design, leading to 9 % weigh reduction.

In this study, a total of 326 data on a variety of geometric parameters of pick cutters and the corresponding cuttable rock conditions were collected and built as a database. Statistical analysis of the database showed that there is a significant positive correlation between the parameters that define the geometry of a pick cutter, especially between the parameters related to the length of a pick cutter and the geometry of a tungsten carbide insert. The diameter of a pick cutter shaft was also strongly correlated with the geometry of the inserts. On the other hand, it was difficult to find a clear correlation between the parameters for the rock conditions defined by the four conditions and the geometric parameters of pick cutters, which may be due to the uncertainty of the rock mass and the fact that the application of a pick cutter is presented as a range rather than a numerical single value. However, the mean values of geometric parameters of pick cutters tend to increase as a rock mass becomes harder. However, the pick length parameters are found to decrease as a rock mass becomes harder, which may be a way to reduce the moments that can occur when using long pick cutters in a hard rock condition.

Finite element analysis is performed to evaluate stress and deformation of a wrinkle-type dust cover for the ball joints of tie rods of automotive steering system. Results of the analysis for assembly and operation condition show that sealing capability is good and the maximum stress on the body is smaller than the tensile strength. An optimal shape of the dust cover is obtained using the Taguchi method to reduce the maximum stress. The maximum stress of the optimal design under the operation condition is reduced by 22 per cent of that of the initial design. Results of the research show that performance evaluation and design of the dust covers can be effectively done using the proposed method.

웹 GIS에서의 인터넷 서비스 이용자의 집중 현상으로 발생하는 서버의 과부하 현상을 막고 안정적인 서비스 제공을 위해서는 웹 클러스터링 기술의 도입이 필요하다. 공간 질의는 웹 데이터와는 달리 인접 영역에 대한 질의가 매우 잣으며, 질의 처리 결과가 대용량이라는 특성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 공간 질의의 특성을 고려하지 않을 경우, 서버에서 처리되는 질의들의 지역적 인접성이 낮아지고 낮은 버퍼 재 사용율은 디스크로의 접근 빈도를 높여 질의 처리 비용을 증가시키는 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 웹 GIS 클러스터링 시스템을 위한 질의 영역의 인접성을 이용한 로드 밸런싱 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 공간 데이터를 타일을 기반으로 인접한 타일의 그룹을 생성하여 각 서버에 할당하여, 질의 영역 및 공간 연산을 고려하여 서버에서 질의가 처리되는 동안 버퍼 재사용율이 최대가 되도록 클라이언트의 질의 요청을 적절한 서버에 전달한다. 제안하는 기법은 서버의 버퍼를 공간 인덱스 탐색에 최적화함으로써 서버의 버퍼 재상용율을 높이고, 클러스터링 시스템에서 디스크의 접근 횟수를 낮추어, 전체적인 서버 시스템의 처리 능력을 형상시킨다.

Pneumatic cylinders are classified into rod-type pneumatic cylinders and rodless pneumatic cylinders depending on the presence of the rod. Rodless cylinders have a constant area and have no deflection. Rodless cylinders are widely used in automatic systems requiring high-speed performance and high-precision transportation. However, the research of the pneumatic cylinder has been focused on the structure and life characteristics. In this research, aging characteristics and shape parameter analysis which are related to the lifetime were investigated. By conducting the lifetime tests with two different materials for the transfer plate, the failure mode and lifetime characteristics were analyzed. By the Anderson-Darling (A-D) verification based on the complete data set, the analysis results of lifetime distribution, shape parameter, and scale parameter were provided.

스트레인 게이지를 이용한 응력측정 방법 및 응력 측정시의 오차 발생의 원인에 대해서 설명하 였고 현재 많이 사용되고있는 스트레인 게이지식 로드셀의 원리 및 구조에 대해서도 설명하였다. 스트레인 게이지를 이용하여 변형도를 측정할 경우 1% 이내의 정확도를 유지하는 것이 가능하나 측정된 변형도로부터 응력을 계산할 경우 재료상수들의 부정확성으로 인하여 5% 정도의 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 스트레인 게이지를 이용한 응력 측정값은 부착위치에서의 값이므로 구조물의 최대 응력을 측정하고자 할 경우 구조물의 응력 상태를 제대로 파악하지 못하면 큰 오차가 발 생할 수 잇다. 따라서 정확한 측정을 위해서는 정확한 게이지 작업 기술과 함께 하중에 대한 대상물의 거동을 파악하는 기술 습득이 요구된다. 스트레인 게이지식 로드셀을 직접 설계 및 제작하기 위해서는 용량, 정밀도, 설치 공간, 사용조건 등을 고려하여 감지부의 형상, 감지부의 재질, 스트레인 게이지의 종류, 부착 방법, 보상회로 구성방법, 보호 케이스의 부착 여부 등을 결정하여야 하고 제작이 완료된 후 힘 표준기 등으로 교정검사를 실시하여 사용하여야만 정확한 측정을 기대할 수 있다.
