This paper proposes a measurement method for the surface shape of micro-parts by using an atomic force microscope(AFM). To this end, two techniques are presented: First, the measurement range is expanded by using an image matching method based on correlation coefficients. To account for the inaccuracy of the coarse stage implemented in AFM, the image matching technique is applied to two neighboring images intentionally overlapped with each other. Second, a method to measure the shape of relatively large specimen is proposed that utilizes the inherent trigger mechanism due to the atomic force. The proposed methods are proved effective through a series of experiments.

This paper presents a new technique to implement the real-time recognition for shapes and model number of parts based on an active vision approach. The main focus of this paper is to apply a technique of 3D object recognition for non-contacting inspection of the shape and the external form state of precision parts based on the pattern recognition. In the field of computer vision, there have been many kinds of object recognition approaches. And most of these approaches focus on a method of recognition using a given input image (passive vision). It is, however, hard to recognize an object from model objects that have similar aspects each other. Recently, it has been perceived that an active vision is one of hopeful approaches to realize a robust object recognition system. The performance is illustrated by experiment for several parts and models.

결정질 실리콘 태양전지의 알루미늄 후면전극이 패시베이션층의 공극을 통하여 확산됨으로써 국부 후면전계(local back surface field)가 형성되는 후면 점접촉 구조를 제조하였으며, 이에 대한 공정조건 및 특성을 연구하였다. 후면 패시베이션층은 실리콘 기판과 금속전극사이에 삽입됨으로써 표면 재결합속도를 낮추고, 후면 반사도를 높여 광흡수 경로를 증가시킬 수 있다. 고가의 사진식각기술 대신에 저가의 단순한 공정인 레이저 식각기술을 사용하여 후면 패시베이션층에 균일하고 잘 정렬된 공극 패턴을 형성할 수 있었다. 레이저 식각 조건 및 소성조건에 따른 Al 확산 국부 후면전계의 단면 형상을 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 사용하여 관찰하였으며 이에 대한 전기적, 광학적 특성 변화를 조사하였다.

There is few research about contact problem for a rigid surface with an arbitrary shape in SPH. The variational equation based on the virtual work principle is derived and its solution is obtained by the penalty method. It is proposed a new method that can determine the parameters for a penetration and a penetration rate used in the penalty method. The reproducing condition is adopted to correct the deficiency of kernel on the boundary. In order to calculate a penetration of particles, after checking boundary particles for deformable body, boundary normal vectors were determined on the rigid surface. Numerical simulations for models which have rigid surface with an arbitrary shape were conducted to validate the proposed method in 2D Cartesian and cylindrical coordinate. The results of those analysis represent that the contact algorithm proposed in this study works properly.

In the present study, the stability of a compressed air energy storage cavern was numerically assessed by concrete plug shapes in order to investigate the optimal shape of concrete plug. The concrete plugs were cylindrical, embedded cylindrical, tapered, and wedged in shape. The stability assessment was carried out based on factor of safety through a strength reduction method and a volume ratio which refers to the ratio of the volume of yield regions in concrete induced by internal pressure to all concrete volume. The results from the present study indicated that the embedded cylindrical and taper shaped plugs were mechanically more stable than the cylindrical and wedge shaped plugs. However, from a comparison of stress distributions in rock mass between the embedded cylindrical and taper shaped plugs, the taper shaped plug was found to be more optimal than the embedded cylindrical plug, since the embedded cylindrical plug caused more stress concentration in the interface between the plug and rock mass than the taper shaped plug.

We predict the rolled-strip profile for a 6-high mill using thin rolling theory and a numerical model. In the numerical model, we calculate the distributions of the contact pressures between the rolls and the rolling pressure between the strip and the work roll in the transverse direction using the geometric structure of the 6-high mill and the boundary conditions. We determine the distribution of the rolling pressure in the rolling direction via a thin-foil rolling model using Fleck's theory. We calculate the three-dimensional elastic deformation of the work roll using the pressures of the width and rolling directions. We then obtain the three-dimensional strip profile via the elastic deformation of the work roll during the rolling process. The profile is verified by a thin cold-rolling test and FE simulation.

In this study, based on the RPS algorithm, the application results to an electrically controlled suspension system using previewed road information are presented. Reducing the excessive vibration induced by a disturbance transmitted to the system and secure its stability is a major issue. In particular, in the automotive industry, the demand is constantly being raised. A typical external disturbance causing vibration and instability of a vehicle is an irregular roadway surface that contacts a running vehicle tire. Therefore, obtaining such profile information is an important process. The RPS algorithm using a multi sensor system was constructed and implemented in a real car. Through experimental work using the RPS system included non-contact type optical sensors, it could robustly reconstruct the road input profiles from the intermixed data onto the vehicle's dynamic motion while traveling at an uneven roadway surface. A controller with a preview control was designed in the framework of a semi-active suspension system based on the 7 degrees of freedom full vehicle model. The control performance of the system was evaluated through simulations and the results were compared with the passive vehicle condition. These results highlight the feasibility of the presented control frame.

접촉운동기구 계면에서의 마찰력은 요소 혹은 시스템의 효율과 직접적으로 연관이 있으며 이로 해 마찰계수를 낮추기 위한 저마찰 표면처리는 Tribology 연구에 있어 기초적이면서도 동시에 매우 중요한 부분으로 오래 전부터 인식되어오고 있다. 또한 대부분의 습동기구 표면이 경화 처리되어 마모에 강한 특성을 보이나 이는 마찰계수가 일정 이하로 낮게 유지될 경우에만 해당되는 것으로 마찰계수의 조절은 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 과거 자동차 엔진의 실린더 라이너 표면에 가공된 사선 형태의 패턴들이 저마찰 기능을 하는 것은 이미 잘 알려진 사실이며 최근에는 이러한 패턴 혹은 형상을 인위적으로 조절하여 저마찰 기능과 성능을 더욱 높이고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이와 같은 미세한 패턴은 다양한 가공기술의 발전에 의해 가능하게 되었으며 그 결과 마찰계수는 패턴의 형상과 분포 등과 매우 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있는 표면 텍스쳐링 분야에 대한 전반적인 연구 동향과 미래의 가능성에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

이 연구의 목적은 액정법을 이용하여 주름형상 판형 열 교환기에서의 내부유동과 열 전달 성능의 특성을 파악하는데 있으며 공기를 작동유체로 사용하였다. 과거에는 실험이 주로 판형 열 교환기의 입·출구에서의 열 전달 성능에만 관심이 집중되었다. 그러나 이 실험에서는 액정법을 이용하여 판형열교환기 셀 표면 위에서의 국소 누셀트수의 분포를 연구하였다. 레이놀즈수가 증가할수록 열 전달 성능은 증가하였으나 마찰계수는 감소하였다. 주름각이 증가할수록 열 전달 성능과 마찰계수는 모두 증가하였다. 국소 누셀트수 분포로부터 열 전달이 잘 일어나는 부분은 주름을 타고 넘어 들어온 두 유동이 만나는 곳이며 또한, 셀의 가운데 부분은 셀의 수직단면적이 커서 셀 표면과 유동의 접촉이 약하므로 작은 누셀트수를 가지는 것을 알 수 있다.

Noncontact measuring methodology of 3-dimensional profile using CCD camera are very attractive because of it's high measuring speed and it's high sensitivity. Especially when projecting a grid pattern over the object, the captured image have 3 dimensional information of the object. Projection moire extract 3-D information with another grid pattern in front of CCD camera. However phase measuring profilometry(PMP) obtain similar results without additional grid pattern. In this paper, the projection moire are compared with the PMP mathematically, and it is shown that PMP can generate moire image with simple mathematical computations. Experimental works are also carried out showing the same results. It is shown that using a single gird pattern, moire image can be obtained directly without any mathematical operation when some conditions are satisfied.
