본 연구에서는 적층형 압전소자를 이용하여 초소형 및 슬림형 광디스크 드라이브용 광픽업 구동기를 개발하였다. 최근에 휴대용 정보기기의 급격한 발달로 인해 다양한 형태의 초소형 정보저장기기가 사용되고 있으며 착탈식 형태의 초소형 광디스크를 사용하는 ODD가 개발 중에 있다. 적층 형태의 압전소자와 유연 힌지 형태의 변위 확대기구를 사용하여 구동기의 출력 힘과 허용 변위를 증가시키도록 설계하였다. 압전형 구동기의 동특성을 고려한 모델링과 이론적 해석을 통해 목표 변위와 성능을 만족하도록 설계 변수를 최적화하였고 이를 ANSYS를 이용한 해석과 비교하였다. 상용화된 적층형 압전소자를 이용한 prototype 올 제작하여 실험을 수행하였으며 이론적인 예상 값과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 이와 같은 이론적 해석과 실험 결과를 토대로 높이가 2.5mm이며 15V 에서 $\pm$400$\mu\textrm{m}$의 변위를 갖는 슬림형 및 초소형 ODD에 적합한 압전형 구동기를 설계하였다.

Robot hands capable of grasping or handling various objects are important for service robots to effectively aid humans. In particular, controlling a contact force and providing a compliant motion are essential when the hand is in contact with objects. Many dexterous robot hands equipped with force/torque sensors have been developed to perform force control, but they suffer from the complexity of control and high cost. In this paper, a low-cost robot hand based on SEA (Series Elastic Actuator), which is composed of compression spring, stretch sensor, and wire, is proposed. The grasping force can be estimated by measuring the compression length of spring, which would allow the hand to perform force control. A series of experimentations are carried out to verify the performance of force control of the proposed robot hand, and it is shown that it can successfully control the contact force without any additional force/torque sensors.

The effects of $Y_2$ $O_3$-substitution on the piezoelectric properties of Pb[(N $i_{1}$3/N $b_{2}$3/)$_{0.15}$(Z $r_{1}$2/ $Ti_{1}$2/)$_{0.85}$] $O_3$ceramics were investigated. It was found that $Y^{3+}$ ions incorporate into Pb-sites of the ceramics, resulting in a increased lattice anisotropy and formation of Pb-vacancies. As a result, an orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition was induced when $\chi$>0.005. At the morphotropic phase boundary of x=0.005, piezoelectric constants( $k_{p}$, $k_{33}$, and $d_{33}$) showed maximum values of 0.53, 0.58, and 350pC/N, respectively. A 30-layer actuator fabricated with the above material showed a maximum strain of 0.12％ under 100V DC bias.

The main goals of the automotive suspension systems are to isolate roadway unevenness from the tire and to improve vehicle stability. To overcome the performance limitation of the passive systems the active systems which completely replace the passive spring and damper elements with a force generating actuator has been studied. However, application of the system has been limited because it has required a significant amount of power. Recently, alternative systems which retain passive elements but include active elements have been developed to reduce the power required. Those systems are mostly focused on the control system which compresses the spring-damper directly. In this study, a new type of power efficient control system which makes the spring-damper unit slide in side way is studied. After constructing the control system including dynamic modeling and motion control, two types of alternative control systems are compared in view of power consumption and dynamic attitudes such as roll responses as well as heave responses. Also, a half car bond graph model is developed to show clearly the significant differences in performances between two control systems.

Full scale durability test in the laboratory is an essential of any fatigue life evaluation of components or structures of the automotive vehicle. Component testing is particularly important in today's highly competitive industries where the design to reduce weight and production costs must be balanced with the necessity to avoid expensive service failure. Generally, hydraulic road simulator is used to carry out the fatigue test and the vibration test. In this paper, the algorithm and software to realize the real road profile are developed. The operation software for simultaneously controlled multi-axial road simulator is developed and the input and output data are displayed window based PC controller in the real time. Futhermore, the software to generate the real road profile are developed. The validity of the software are verified by applying the belgian road, the city road, the highway, and the gravel road. The results of the above experiment show that the real road profiles are realized well after 10th iteration.

Control of a robot manipulator in contact with the environment is usually conducted by the direct feedback control using a force-torque sensor or the indirect impedance control. In these methods, however, the control algorithms become complicated and the performance of position and force control cannot be improved because of the mechanical properties of the passive components. To cope with such problems, redundant actuation has been used to enhance the performance of position control and force control. In this research, a Double Actuator Unit (DAU) is proposed, with which the force control algorithm can be simplified and can make the robot ensure the safety during the external collision. The DAU is composed of two actuators; one controls the position and the other modulates the joint stiffness. Using this unit, it is possible to independently control the position and stiffness. The DAU based on the planetary gears is investigated in this paper. Performance using the DAU is also verified by various experiments. It is shown that the manipulator using this mechanism provides better safety during the impact with the environment by reducing the joint stiffness appropriately on detecting the collision of a manipulator.

Three different composition 130um thickness PZT were fabricated by extrusion method and burned out at $550^{\circ}C$ and sintered at $1260^{\circ}C$/2.5hrs. Actuator was fabricated using glass and Si(100) wafer by MEMS process. From XRD data, in case of DECH, perovskite phase peak strength is higher than others. We were able to obtain the information of grain growth and porosity by SEM images. Also DECH PZT on glass membrane(100um thickness) have larger displacement than others.

In this paper, a lens actuator for mobile devices is proposed using stack type piezoelectric materials. In general, the deformation of PZT actuators is not enough for lens motion when the allowed voltage is applied. The small stroke problem can be solved by accumulating a lot of small displacements in high frequency. In this paper, a new inch-worm type model for focusing actuator is suggested based on the interaction of inertial and frictional forces. Theoretical analysis and simulation using ANSYS are performed to verify the feasibility of the inch-worm PZT actuator model. Various types of clamps are considered to determine the effect of frictional force on the motion, and appropriate clamp-actuator models are proposed. The proposed models are experimentally verified and the experimental results show high correspondence with theoretical and simulated values. The inch-worm type focusing actuator enable a large stroke with 7.79 mm/sec with 10kHz and 10V.

본 연구에서는 PMN-PT bimorph actuator를 이용하여 초소형 광디스크 드라이브용 광픽업 구동기를 제작하였다. 최근에 휴대용 기기에서의 고용량 정보 저장기기에 대한 필요성이 대두됨에 따라 착탈식이 가능한 수 기가급 초소형 광디스크 드라이브가 개발중에 있다. PMN-PT는 약 1.5kV/cm 이하의 전기장에서는 PZT같은 압전 소자와 마찬가지로 입력 전압에 대한 변형률이 선형성을 나타내는데, 사용된 PMN-PT는 PZT의 약 3배 가까운 압전 상수값을 나타내었다. 보 끝단에 외부 힘이 작용할 때 PMN-PT bimorph 구동기가 낼 수 있는 수직 방향의 힘과 변위에 대해서 일반적인 적층 형태로 이론적인 해석을 수행 하였다. 그리고 이 bimorph로 구동될 Cymbal 형태의 변위 확대 기구의 변위에 대한 이론적인 모델을 제시하고, 이를 이용하여 2개의 bimorph로 2축을 동시에 구동하는 픽업 구동기를 제작하였다. 3개의 제작된 prototype으로 실험을 수행하여 예상 변위량과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 또한, 상용 해석 프로그램인 Matlab과 Ansys를 이용하여 Cymbal 확대 기구의 여러 파라미터에 따른 구동 성능의 민감도를 확인해 보았다.

Smart materials capable of changing their characteristics in response to stimuli such as light, heat, pH, and electric and magnetic fields are promising for application to flexible electronics, soft robotics, and biomedicine. Compared with conventional rigid materials, these materials are typically composed of soft materials that improve the biocompatibility and allow for large and dynamic deformations in response to external environmental stimuli. Among them, smart magnetic materials are attracting immense attention owing to their fast response, remote actuation, and wide penetration range under various conditions. In this review, we report the material design and fabrication of smart magnetic materials. Furthermore, we focus on recent advances in their typical applications, namely, soft magnetic actuators, sensors for self-assembly, object manipulation, shape transformation, multimodal robot actuation, and tactile sensing.
