A new method is proposed for optimal management of the fabrication and assembly tolerance of optical systems. The practical utility of the method is shown by applying it to a wide-angle anamorphic IR optical system. In this method the wavefront error of an optical system is expressed in terms of Zernike polynomials, and the sensitivity of the expansion coefficients to the variation of design parameters is analyzed. Based on this sensitivity analysis, the optimal tolerances of the fabrication parameters are determined and the best compensators for the assembly process are selected. By using this method, one can accurately predict with good confidence the best possible performance of a completed optical system in practice.

기구의 운동에 있어서 공차는 필연적으로 운동 오차를 발생시키게 된다. 이상적인 기구의 운동을 위하여 공차를 작게 설정하는 것은 가공 또는 조립 비용을 증가시키는 반면에 제작 비용의 절감을 위하여 공차를 크게 설정하는 것은 기구의 운동 오차를 크게 증가시키게 된다. 따라서 기구의 운동오차를 고려한 효율적인 공차의 설정 및 배분이 중요하다. 이 논문은 민감도 해석을 이용하여 기구의 운동에 영향을 미치는 설계변수들에 어떻게 공차를 효율적으로 지정하고 분배하는 가를 연구하였다. 민감도 해석에서는 각 설계변수의 민감도 계수를 유도하였으며 설계변수에 공차를 지정하였을 때 발생할 수 있는 기구 운동의 최대 응답오차를 수식화 하였으며 역으로 기구 운동에 있어서 허용 응답오차를 설정하였을 때 각 설계 변수의 공차를 분배하는 과정을 유도하였다. 실제로 공차 분배 과정을 공업용 본봉 재봉기의 이송조절기구에 적용하여 허용 응답오차를 고려한 공차 설정을 합리적으로 수행할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 제시한 공차 분배 과정은 재봉기 또는 로봇과 같이 기구운동과 밀접한 관련이 있는 기계의 설계에 유용할 것이다.

This paper introduces a probabilistic analysis method in order to analyze the effect of manufacturing tolerance on induction motor performance occurring in massive production. The univariate dimension reduction method is adapted to predict probabilistic characteristics of a performance function due to certain probabilistic distributions of design variables. Moreover, the sensitivity information on mean and variance of the performance function is estimated, and then the effect of randomness of individual design variables on the probability performance function is analyzed. The effectiveness and accuracy of the method is investigated with a mathematical model and an induction motor.

We present various optimal grating structures which give the low threshold gain, good modulation characteristics, small effective linewidth enhancement factor, and large fabrication tolerance in complex-coupled MQW DFB lasers with absorptive gratings. To obtain these, we calculate the complex coupling coefficients using the extended additional layer method and the threshold gain including the modal loss in the absorptive grating region for rectangular and trapezoidal gratings. Based on the comparison of the results for various possible absorptive grating structures, the design guidelines are presented to obtain the low threshold gain or large fabrication tolerance. Among the grating structures studied, the double grating structure consisting of the absorptive grating on the index grating has the largest fabrication tolerance for the threshold gain and the coupling strength. The fabrication tolerance for the coupling ratio is very large for all the grating structures studied.

This paper introduces a performance integration method to predict variation characteristic of a performance function of electromagnetic machines or devices due to manufacturing tolerances. A normalized performance function space and a hybrid mean value technique are adapted to effectively predict mean and variance, which can identify probabilistic distribution of the performance function. To verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method, a mathematical problem and a loudspeaker model are tested, and numerical results are compared with those of existing methods such as Monte Carlo simulation and univariate dimension reduction method.

The sensitivity analysis of a middle wave infrared optical system with 20: 1 zoom ratio is performed to analyze manufacturing and alignment tolerances, and to establish the alignment logic and the focus control strategy. The characteristics of the sensitivities of Zernike coefficients are investigated to all mechanical displacements and several zoom positions using Code-V Macro. From this result, the tolerances of manufacturing and alignment of the optical system are derived and the effective alignment logic is established. Futhermore, an effective focus control strategy is established to make the system simple and compact.

The cogging torque of a brushless dc (BLDC) motor results from the interaction between permanent magnets and iron core, and it causes noise and induce vibrations. During a manufacturing process, assembly tolerances lead to the change of the electromagnetic structure of a BLDC motor where permanent magnets are not properly glued to the surface of rotor core. In this paper, the effect of magnet separation from the surface of rotor core on the cogging torque is investigated due to assembly tolerance. The relationship with key design parameters is considered such as separation between magnets and rotor core, the number of magnets having separation, as well as the several types of arrangements among neighboring magnets. Finite element method (FEM) has been used to analyze a BLDC motor, and the allowable assembly tolerance is proposed to prevent generating noise and vibrations. Within proposed assembly tolerance, it is concluded that the cogging torque of a BLDC motor is decreased, and hence noise and vibrations.

In this paper, we study the analysis method for the aspherical tolerance of a Korsch telescope using a Q polynomial. It is important to analyze the tolerances for evaluating quality in high-precision fabrication of aspherical reflectors for high-resolution satellites. Thus we express the aspheric surface in terms of a Q polynomial in which each coefficient term is composed independently, and analyze the tolerance of a Korsch telescope. We also analyze the tolerance using Zernike fringe sag, which expresses the shape error of an aspherical mirror. By comparing the two results, we confirm that the Q-polynomial method can be used to analyze an aspherical mirror.

Blade shape profile in the axial compressor is one of the most important factors governing its aerodynamic characteristics. Manufacturing tolerance, which is inevitable in the blade manufacturing processes, may change blade profile and as a consequence, it will affect the compressor performance. In this paper, influence of manufacturing tolerance on the aerodynamic characteristics of axial compressor blades with distortion of blade profile curvatures is investigated by using a flow simulation technique. It is found that manufacturing tolerance can be an important factor affecting the source of both profile and wake losses of the axial compressor blades.

본 논문에서는 포탄의 탄두를 본체와 분리, 움직임이 가능한 형태로 부착하여 탄착점의 정확도를 향상시키는 가능성에 대하여 검토하였다. 포탄의 탄착점은 대포의 형상, 제작공차, 제어시스템 그리고 발사체의 제작공차 등 여러 변수의 함수이다. 탄두를 분리하여 탄두부분이 추가적인 3자유도의 운동을 할 수 있도록 허용함으로써 그러한 불확실성을 해소할 수 있도록 시도하고자 하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 가변탄두를 갖는 발사체가 탄두부분의 피치(pitch)와 요(yaw) 회전운동을 통하여 발사 초기의 불확실성을 흡수할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
