Most of conventional ultrasonic transducers are constructed to generate either longitudinal or shear waves, but not both of them. We investigated the mechanism of dual mode transducers that generates both of the longitudinal and shear waves simultaneously with a single PZT element. A piezoelectric ceramic PZT has the hexagonal 6mm crystal symmetry, after poling. We studied the performance of a PZT element as a function of its rotation angle so that its efficiency is optimized to excite the two waves equally strongly. The results are verified by checking the impedance variation of the element with Finite Element Methods, and checking the wave form by pulse-echo test simulation. Validity of the theoretical calculation is verified through experiments.

In one dimensional linear array type piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers widely used for medical diagnosis, the acoustic cross talk caused by the structural acoustic coupling between the adjacent piezoelectric elements reduces significantly their performance. In the study, we have proposed an acoustic wall to reduce the acoustic cross talk by wave propagation through the surface the transducer which can not be prevented by conventional kerf and have analyzed using a finite element method the acoustic cross talk level with respect to the shape, size and materials of the acoustic wall mounted on a convex one dimensional piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer. We expect that the simulated results provide us with a valuable information to make an optimized design of the way type ultrasonic transducer minimizing the acoustic cross talk level.

Machining performance is often limited by chatter vibration at the tool-workpiece interface. Chatter vibration is a type of machining self-excited vibration which originated from the variation in cutting forces and the flexibility of the machine tool structure. Cutting tooling method is one of major factor to chatter vibration in turning process. Even though lots of cutting tooling methods are developed and used in machining process, precise analysis of cutting tooling effect in view of chatter vibration behavior. This study presents numerical and experimental approaches to verify and effects of various cutting tooling geometry and clamping method on the onset of chatter vibration. Acquired knowledge from this study will apply the optimal geometry design of cutting tooling and adjusting of machining process.

Most dynamic systems have are known to various random properties in excitation and system parameters. In this paper, a procedure for response analysis is proposed for the linear dynamic system with random properties in both excitation and system parameters. The system parameters and responses with random properties are modeled by perturbation technique, and then response analysis is formulated by probabilistic and vibration theories. And probabilistic FEM is also used for the calculation of mean response which is difficult by the proposed response model. As an applicative example, the transient response is considered for systems of single degree of freedom with random mass and spring constant subjected to stationary white-noise excitation and the results are compared to those of numerical simulation.

In order to effectively utilize the Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing(CWDM) technology in optical integrated devices, a design of a wavelength selective coupler structure between an optical fiber and an optical waveguide in a flat substrate is can be considered. In this paper, we consider the coupling between a silicon waveguide with an air trench and a single mode fiber. We investigated the tendency of coupling efficiency and its limitations according to the grating depth. For this purpose, the coupling efficiency of coupler structure designed through modeling based on coupled mode theory is predicted and quantitatively compared with simulation results using finite element method.

In order to estimate space charging process in the corona charging apparatus which has been used to make polymer electret cell, the electrical properties of 30[${\mu}m$] thick polypropylene film were obtained from TSC measurement after corona charging between copper knife electrode and aluminum cylinder electrode with the voltage of -8, -7, -6, -5 (kV). And, the electrostatic contour and the electric field vector were calculated using Finite Element Method with the electrical properties obtained from TSC spectra analysis. The edge effect around the edge of knife electrode affects electrostatic contour on the surface of specimen and the electric field concentration inside the polymer. As a result the uneven charging state in the electret cell due to the mistake of design was calculated, and the optimal design of corona charging apparatus opprobriate to various specimen was come to be practicable.

To attach a fuel tank to an excavator, two sets of mounting plates on which three bosses are attached are welded onto the tank. In this study, the welding process of a fuel tank for an excavator was modeled using a finite element numerical method. The tank was modeled as a simple plate to which the mounting plate or bosses were attached by fillet welding. Thermal and thermo-elasto-plastic analyses of the welding process were carried out to predict the temperature distribution and material distortion during welding, respectively. Three different welding sequences for the tank were also modelled to compare the deformation that occurred due to each welding sequence. The results of the analysis predicted that changing the welding sequence around the mounting plate could not position the boss within the allowable dimensional range. The results also revealed the sequence in which the maximum distortion of the bosses welded onto the tank was 30% less than the maximum distortion due to the other sequences.

Injection molding process is one of the most important methods to produce plastic parts with high efficiency and low cost. Today, injection molded parts have been increased dramatically the demand for high strength and quality applications. In this study, In-line skates are made of Al alloy and plastic materials to replace the frame for the optimization process is all about.

In this work, we developed a new type ultrasonic dehumidifier with piezoelectric ceramics, which and efficiently repel waterdrops on outdoor glass plates exposed to raindrops. Through finite element analysis of a certain type of glass plates to analyze its dynamic behavior, the structure of the ultrasonic device we determined to get the optimal performance. A supplemental metal plate was attached to the glass plate for uniform cleaning. Based on the theoretical results, experimental samples were fabricated and evaluated with various dimensions of the glass plate and the piezoceramic vibrator. Driving circuit for the dehumidifier made use of the frequency sweeping technique to keep track of the resonant frequency of the glass plate that was variant with environmental conditions.

The acceleration of the performance of machine tools influences the development of the semi-conductor and optical technology as the development of NC and measurement technology. Because the measurement has been done to unload condition without considering of mechanical stiffness in the case of machining center as we measure the quasi-static error of machine tools on general study people who works on the spot has many problems on the data value. Also there are no satisfiable results until now in spite of many studys about this because the deflections of the table and the shaft supporting a workpiece influence, influence the accuracy of the table and shaft supporting a workpiece influence the accuracy of the workpiece. And there is doubt about the inspection method of measured error. In this paper Therefor we will help working more accurately on the spot by measuring analyzing displaying the defoec-tion of the table and support shaft when we load on the table and the support shaft of machining center using laser interfer-ometer. Also we try to settle new conception of the measurement method and more accurate grasp of the deflection tenden-cy by verifing the tendency of the error measured through the comparison of the simulated error measured through the comparison of the simulated error using ANSYS a common finite element analysis program which is able to measure heat deformation material deformation and error resulted from this study.
