During machining, since more than 50% compliance of the cutting point in machine tool structures comes from headstocks, with the remainder coming from beds, slides and structural joints, the structural analysis of the headstock is very important to improve the static and dynamic performances. Especially, in case of machining hard and brittle materials such as glasses and ceramics with the grinding machine, the reinforced headstock with the high damping material is demanded. Since the fiber reinforced composite materials have excellent properties for structures, owing to its high specific modulus, high damping and low thermal expansion, it is expected that the dynamic and thermal characteristics of the headstock will be improved if they are employed as the materials fur headstock. In this paper, the design and the manufacturing methods as well as the static and dynamic characteristics of a steel-composite hybrid headstock were investigated analytically and experimentally to improve the performance of the grinding machine system.

In focused-ion-beam (FIB) application of micromachining and device transplantation, four kinds of FIB processes, namely FIB sputtering, FIB-induced etching, redeposition, and FIB-induced deposition, are well utilized. As with FIB systems, scanning electron microscopes(SEMs) were extensively used in the semiconductor industry. They are the tools of choice for defect review and providing the image resolution needed for process monitoring. The enhanced capabilities of a dual-column on one chamber system are quickly becoming realized by the nano industry for performing a wide range of application.

In recent days the more use of CFRP composite is in the airplane, automobile, and sport goods , etc., the more necessity of research on it in this engineering. In this research, the CFRP composite specimen are fabricated by 48 CFRP plies with 8 orientation angles, and the specimens are drilled with 3 tools. The results are analyzed with consideration of cutting force, type of tools and fabrication condition. The specimens with each drilling conditions are also investigated with SEM. The optimal drilling conditions such as drill types and cutting fence with respect to the fabricating condition are studied.

The strengthening mechanism of short fiber or whisker reinforced metal matrix composites has been studied by a continuum mechanics treatment utilizing finite element analysis (FEM). To assess the tensile and compressive constitutive responses, a constraint-unconstraint comparative study based on stree-strain hysteresis loop has been performed. For analysis procedures, the aligned axisymmetric single fiber model and the stress grouping technique have been implemented to evaluate the domain-based field quantities. Results indicated that the development of significant triaxial stresses within the matrix both for the tensile and compressive loading, due to the constraint imposed by reinforcements, provides and important contribution to strengthening. It was also found that fiber stresses are not only sensitive to the fiber/fiber interaction effects but also substantially contribute to the composite strengthening both for the tensile and compressive loading.

This study is to investigate a fracture characteristics of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) under the tensile loading as a function of acoustic emission (AE) according to the frequency analysis (transient mode) and AE source location (location mode). It was found that the fracture mechanism of AE frequency analysis was a useful tool for the estimation of different type of fracture in CFRP, i.e., matrix(epoxy resin) cracking, delamitation and fiber breakage same as AE amplitude distribution.

Diverse approaches for reducing the total energy consumption of machine tools have been introduced and developed, to cope with rapid increase of total energy costs in world-wide manufacturing industries. To realize the improvement of the energy efficiency, systematic and integrated strategies must be considered, including energy-saving design, optimized control operation and concrete evaluation of the energy efficiency. This paper proposes key enabling technologies required to improve the energy efficiency of 5-axis multi-functional machining tools, considering both of system design and operation in the real production environments. Related standardized procedures of the energy efficiency evaluation is also represented.

In the use of glass fiber reinforced plastics(GFRP) it is often necessary to cut the components, but the cutting of GFRP is often made difficult by the delamination of the compositions and short tool life. Experimental investigation was conducted to evaluate the chip formation of the glass fiber reinforced plastics during orthogonal cutting. The chip formation process, cutting force, and thrust force were studied. The chip formation processes were studied through the use of quick-stop device. Chip-tool contact areas were obtained with the use of the quick-stop device, and observed using optical microscopy after polishing. Cutting force and thrust force were measured through the use of the tool dynamometer.

The object of this study is to investigate a fracture characteristics of static tensile test as a function of acoustic emission according to the fiber orientation $\theta=0^{\circ}C$ in carbon/epoxy composites, CFRP. On tensile loading, it was recognized that the fracture characteristics of CFRP in a unidirectional composites. Using the results of the AE analysis(a=2mm), it was found that the amplitude distributions of AE signals corresponding the matrix cracking, fiber debonding or delamination, and fiber breaking are 55~70dB(<200sec), 100dB(200~600sec), and 80dB(>600sec).

In discontinuous composite mechanics, shear lag theory is one of the most popular model because of its simplicity and accuracy. However, it does not provide sufficiently accurate strengthening predictions in elastic regime when the fiber aspect ratio is small. This is due to its neglect of stress transfer across the fiber ends and the stress concentrations that exist in the matrix regions near the fiber ends. To overcome this shortcoming, a more simplified shear lag model introducing the stress concentration factor which is a major function of modulus ratio is proposed. It is found that the proposed model gives a good agreement with finite element results and has the capability to correctly predict the values of intefacial shear stresses and local stress variations in the small fiber aspect ratio regime.

CFRP composite has a lot of merits such as mechanical characteristic, light weight and thermal resistance. For these merits CFRP is applied to so many industrial area. In order for the composite materials to be used in the aircraft structures or machine elements, accurate surfaces for bearing mounting or joints must be provided, which require precise machining. In this paper, the relationship between the stack thickness and drill diameter is examined from the drilling experiment, which is the drilling of 16, 32, 48p1ies specimen with the ${\phi}8$, ${\phi}10$, ${\phi}12mm$ cemented carbide drill. The results are analyzed with consideration of cutting force, stack thickness and drill diameter.
