This paper investigates the structural stability and reliability on improving performance of flexible brake pad used in high speed train. To this end, an improved model of flexible pad was obtained through structural analysis. Brake pad specimens were subjected to modal, stroke and endurance tests to examine the dynamic characteristics and mechanical stability. The hot spot generation with increasing rotational speed was observed on chassis dynamometer equipment and then the structurally uniform contact between the disc and pad was achieved. The temperature distribution of flexible pad was measured using the infrared camcorder. Hence, the proposed flexible pad showed the better structural stability and thermal energy emission.

객체지향 방법에 의한 소프트웨어 개발은 문제해결의 적용 측면에서 많은 유연성을 가지고 있으며 사용자 환경의 많은 요구조건을 만족시키고 있다는 것은 이미 공인된 사실이다. 그러나 잘못 적용한 컴퍼넌트는 객체지향 시스템 개발에 많은 제한을 가져올 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 시스템 구현 시 연속적으로 변화되는 속성들과 적용방법들이 변화하는 것을 관리하여 새로운 시스템 개발에 필요한 컴퍼넌트의 선택과 행위성을 이해하는 문제를 해결하고자 퍼지 메커니즘을 이용한 디스크립터 분류와 분석도구의 적용에 관한 방법론을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, a flexible disk grinding process is applied in order to produce high precision product. A new model was developed considering feed motion along horizontal and vertical direction. Different types of feed speed variation was tested with respect to distinct process stages in order to achieve flat surface. It was observed that highest order polynomial form for both horizontal and vertical feed speed variation among the proposed categories produced surface close to flat one. Disk deflection trend during the process was visualized confirming the proposed scheme. Cutting force and VRR(volume removal rate) was observed as an aid to process planning.

The working surface of a flexible grinding disk was characterized by means of an image processing, in which a picture of a disk surface was taken by the CCD camera and analyzed with the personal computer. As process conditions, depth of cut was changed to be 2 and 4 mm. From the captured image circles marked on the disk was regenerated using the edges detected with scale space filtering. In order to correlate the level of deformation to the distortion of the circles, intervals between each circle have been analyzed. Notable correlation has been observed between the intervals and the process conditions.

Inherent dynamic interaction between flexible disk and workpiece creates partially non-flat surface profile. A flat zone was defined using minimum depth of engagement. Several key parameters were defined to explain the characteristics of the zone. Process conditions including disk rotation speed, initial depth of cut and feed speed were varied to produce product profile database. Correlation between key factors was examined to find the characteristic dependencies. Trends of key parameters were displayed and explained. Higher flat zone ratio was observed for lower depth of cut and higher disk rotation speed. Ratio of minimum depth of cut against target depth of cut increased for higher feed speed and disk rotation speed but was insensitive to the depth of cut variation. The process transition was visualized by continuously displaying instantaneous orientation of the deflected disk and the location of key parameters were clearly marked for comparison.

In order to clarify detailed mechanism of the flexible disk grinding system, workpiece length was introduced and its performance was evaluated. Flat zone ratio increased as the workpiece length increased. Increasing wheel speed and depth of cut also enhanced process performance by producing larger flat zone ratio. Neural network system was successfully applied to predict minimum depth of engagement and flat zone ratio. An additional input parameter as workpiece length to the neural network system enhanced the prediction performance by reducing error rate. By rearranging the Input combinations to the network, the workpiece length was precisely predicted with the prediction error rate lower than 2.8% depending on the network structure.

A variable cutting speed control model was developed to be implemented for the flexible disk grinding process Control algorithm was based on the error referred by the discrepancy between current disk angle and intended one that are pro-posed to produce desired resulting depth of cut. Controller was implemented in two different aspect One was to initiate the control law from the beginning while the other was to activate as soon as the disk start to produce ground surface i.e. The beginning of the between edges stage. Several performance analysis were conducted comparing various process parameters such as cutting force disk angle depth of cut and disk speed with respect to process transition time Tentative results revealed that controller implemented from the earlier stages of the process showed better performance than the other revealed that controller implemented from the earlier stages of the process showed better performance that the other.

In this paper, it is analyzed about the mechanical characteristics of pedicle screw system which is a artificial implant for surgery to treatment serious lumbar vertebra diseases. The disk of lumbar vertebra to be fixed by pedicle screw system shows regressive phenomena. But if flexible rod, to give a flexibility(under 6 degree) to fixable disk is applied, it can protect against the degeneration of disk. This research is carried out a mechanical characteristic of pedicle screw system used flexible rod through finite elements analysis, and then flexible rod system was verified about safe movement through compression, tension and torsion test which is the pedicle screw system official recognition test(ASTM F 1717).
