본 논문에서는 최소 중량을 갖는 PPWS용 소켓의 기하형상을 결정하기 위하여 소켓의 경사각, 스트랜드의 강도 및 스트랜드의 직경을 주요 설계변수로 결정하고 각 설계 경우에 대한 매개변수해석을 수행하였다. 소켓의 경사각은 5도에서 13도까지를 범위로 하였고 스트랜드의 강도는 1860MPa급, 1960MPa급 및 2100MPa급의 고강도 강선을 적용한 경우를 고려하였으며, 스트랜드의 직경은 91, 127, 169 및 217개의 강선을 적용한 경우를 대상으로 하였다. 또한, 매개변수해석에서 도출된 기하형상을 갖는 소켓의 안정성을 검토하기 위하여 유한요소해석을 이용하여 소켓을 해석하고 스트랜드의 허용인장력 작용시 소켓의 안정성을 검토하였다. 해석 결과, 소켓의 중량을 최소화하는 내부 경사각은 스트랜드의 직경에 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 매개변수해석으로부터 설계된 소켓은 스트랜드의 허용인장력 작용시 충분한 안정성을 확보하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

A systematic approach to socket shape design of a concave piston assembly for a high pressure hydraulic pump of an excavator is presented in this paper. A design model is given and a methodology of socket shape design is proposed. An axisymmetric rigid-plastic finite element method is employed for predicting the approximate socket shape formed by a rotary forming process as well as for simulating the test process for separating the shoe from the piston assembly designed. It is verified that the predictions are in good agreement with the experiments. The approach is successfully applied to developing an optimal concave piston assembly.

Multi-stage deep drawing is a widely used industrial manufacturing process, and its applications are gradually expanding to both small products and large metallic products. The USB C-type socket used in smart phones, for example, is manufactured using oval multi-stage deep drawing. The socket is very small and slender and it requires precise manufacturing. The thickness distribution of the final product is guaranteed only if it is uniform throughout the overall process. Therefore, minimizing the height difference between long and short sidewalls after the first operation is important for this goal. An initial blank optimization was performed for an oval-type drawing process based on finite element simulations. The goal was to determine an initial blank geometry that can maintain uniform height and thickness after the first draw operation. The initial blank shape of the sheet metal was optimized, and the results show that it satisfied the conditions of minimal thickness reduction and even thickness distribution. The geometry from the optimized simulation was compared with experimental results, which showed good agreement.

The preform design in metal forging plays a key role in improving product quality, such as ensuring defect-free property and proper metal flow. In industry, preforms are generally designed by the iterative trial-and-error approach, but this approach leads not only to significant tool cost but also to the down-time of the production equipment. It is thus necessary to reduce the time and the man-power through an effective method of perform design. In this paper, the equi-potential lines designed in the electric field are introduced to find the preform shape. The equi-potential lines obtained by the arrangement of the initial and final shapes are utilized for the design of the preform, and then applied for obtaining a fine preform in the foging process of the ball-joint socket.

This paper proposes a compact-sized surface myoelectric sensor for the myoelectric hand prosthesis. To fit the surface myoelectric sensor in the socket for the myoelectric hand prosthesis, the sensor should be a compact size. The surface myoelectric sensor is. composed of a skin interface and a single processing circuit that are mounted on a single package. The skin interface has one reference and two input electrodes, and the reference electrode is located in the center of two input electrodes. In this paper we propose two types of sensors with the circle- and bar-shaped reference electrode, but all input electrodes are the bar-shaped. The metal material of the electrodes is the stainless steel (SUS440) that endures sweat and wet conditions. Considering the conduction velocity and the median frequency of the myoelectric signal, we select the inter-electrode distance (IED) between two input electrodes as 18mm, 20mm, and 22 mm. The signal processing circuit consists of a differential amplifier with a band pass filter, a band rejection filter for rejecting 60Hz power-line noise, amplifiers, and a mean absolute value circuit. We evaluate the proposed sensor from the output characteristics according to the IED and the shape of the reference electrode. From the experimental results we show the surface myoelectric sensor with the 18mm IED and the bar-shaped reference electrode is suitable for the myoelectric hand prosthesis.
