A long and light-weight forearm of the vertical 2 DOF robot manipulator with a heavy payload driven by parallel drive mechanism is modelled as a Euler-Bernoulli beam with a tip mass subjected to a high speed rotation. Governing equation is obtained by Hamilton's principle and represented as state variable form using the perturbed variables which describe the perturbed errors at the manipulator's final configuration. Digitial optimal control and observer theory are used to suppress the forearm vibration and control the positions of the joint angles with measured/estimated state feedback. Computer simulations and experimental results are obtained and compared each other.

Recently industrial robots together with positioners are often used to enhance the system performance for arc welding. In this paper, a redundancy control method is proposed to the robot-positioner system with seven degrees of freedom, where one kinematic modelling technique is employed. Also, manipulability in the given cutting plane of the workspace. An algorithm maximizing the manipulability is applied to the robot and the positioner and the simulation results are shown for the task following a linear path.

불완전하게 충전되거나 충전이 되지않은 isthmus는 다근치에 있어서 근관치료의 높은 실패율을 나타낸다 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 isthmus를 갖는 근관을 골라 근관계의 기구조작을 시행하고 여러 가지 근관충전 방법을 이용하여 근관을 충전한 다음 근단부 형성시 적절한 파일의 크기와 치근단부의 밀폐효과를 각 부위별로 비교평가 해보고자 하는 것이다. Isthmus를 갖는 66개의 발거한 치아를 대상으로 기구조작을 통하여 근관확대를 완성하고 무작위로 각각 20개씩 3군으로 분류한 다음 아래와 같은 방법으로 근관을 충전하였다. : A군 측방가압충전법으로 충전한 군, B군 Continuous wave 충전법으로 충전한 군, C군 MicroSeal$^{TM}$을 이용하여 충전한 군. 나머지 6개의 치아는 3개씩 양성대조군과 음성대조군으로 정하였으며 기구조작 후 근관은 충전하지 않은 채로 두었다. 대조군을 제외한 모든 군은 각각 제조회사의 지시에 따라 근관충전한 후 각 시편의 치근단부 2mm를 제외하고 나머지 부위는 두겹의 nail polish를 발라주었으며 2% methylene blue용액에 침잠시켰다 일주일 후 꺼내어 흐르는 물에 깨끗이 세척한 다음 치근단 부위에서부터 1mm씩 잘라가면서 20배의 배율에서 염색액의 침투정도를 평가하였다. 염색액의 침투정도는 다음과 같이 평가되었다. A군과 B군에서는 많은 수의 시편에서 4mm 이상의 절단면에 염색액의 침투를 보인 반면 C군에서는 단지 3mm절단면에서 총 20개 중 3개의 시편에서 염색액의 침투를 보였을 뿐 그 이상의 절단면에서는 염색액의 침투를 보이지 않았다. 뿐만 아니라 isthmus를 갖는 제2형 근관계의 근단부 형성은 40번 크기보다는 큰 MAF가 요구되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 비추어볼 때 isthmus를 갖는 다근치에서 근관충전시 적어도 40번 이상의 MAF로 근단부 형성을 한 후, 열가소성 Continuous wave 충전법과 MicroSeal$^{TM}$을 이용한 근관충전법이 기존의 측방가압충전법 보다는 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

Teleoperation of a robot arm working in hazardous environments has been studied in the field of defense and security. A master system is an essential part that plays an important role in the teleoperation. We developed a master system, which is an essential part in the teleoperation, so that it can operate the slave robot arm intuitively and has excellent mobility and portability compared to conventional master systems. The master system adopted a Stewart platform to minimize the size and weight, and the legs of the Stewart platform are composed of wires to improve the operation range of the system. The experimental validation of the developed master system is conducted with a commercial IMU, and the experimental results show that the proposed master system can perform reliable and dexterous teleoperation.

배선용 차단기의 개폐기구는 수동 조작력을 가동 접촉자에 전달하여 차단, 개폐의 동작을 행하는 것으로 Spring과 Link를 주체로 구성되어 있으며 기구부가 단락 차단 성능의 가장 큰 영향을 미친다. 제품 성능 개선을 위해 기구부를 변경하기 위해서는 많은 시행착오를 거치게 되는데 이 때 소요되는 시간과 비용을 줄이기 위해 동특성 해석이 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 제품의 동적 모델링을 위해 범용 동역학 해석 프로그램인 ADAMS(Automatic Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical System)을 이용하였고 설계 변경시 반복작업으로 인한 실패비용을 최소화하고 링크 지점의 최적값을 구하기 위해 민감도 해석과 최적화 기법을 도입하였다.

The Master-Slave manipulator is the generally used remote handling equipment in the hot cell, in which the high level radioactive materials such as spent fuels are handled. To analyze the motion and to implement the training system by virtual reality technology, the simulator for M-S manipulator using the computer graphics is developed. The parts are modelled in 3-D graphics, assembled, and kinematics are assigned. The inverse kinematics of the manipulator is defined, and the slave of manipulator is coupled with master by the manipulator's specification. Also, the virtual workcell is implemented in the graphical environment which is the same as the real environment. This graphic simulator of manipulator can be effectively used in designing of the maintenance processes for the hot cell equipment and enhance the reliability of the spent fuel management.

In this paper, input-output velocity transmission characteristics of the Casing Oscillator, which is a constructional machine with 4 degree of freedom are examined. After the Jacobian matrix is decomposed into linear part and angular part, the linear and the angular velocity transmission characteristics are analyzed and visualized in easy way even in the case of 3 dimensional task space with 4 variables. Regarding the measure of dexterity of the Casing Oscillator, the kinematic isotropic index and the manipulability measures which are respectively represented the isotropy and the volume of the manipulability ellipsoid are combined. A performance of the Casing Oscillator is evaluated by the combined manipulability measure.

In this study, we have come to classify experiment illustrations inserted in chemistry I textbook according to types (photographs and pictures) and roles (instruments, reagents, process and results). Also, in the case of person in illustrations not following the safety rules or mishandling instruments in the experimental process, we have come to define it as an 'error'. The problem is that, students tend to accept these errors unquestioningly and as a result, during the experiments, safety concerns can arise. Besides, the mishandling of instruments can lead to the wrong result of experiments. These errors are thought to be caused in the process of making illustrations. Therefore, to minimize errors in the illustrations for the experiments, experts specializing in illustrations should participate in the actual experimental illustrations process.

Remote handling manipulators are widely used for performing hazardous tasks, and it is essential to ensure the reliable performance of such systems. Toward this end, tendon-driven mechanisms are adopted in such systems to reduce the weight of the distal parts of the manipulator while maintaining the handling performance. In this study, several approaches for the design of a gripper system for a tendon-driven remote handling system are introduced. Basically, this gripper has an underactuated spring mechanism that is combined with a slave manipulator triggered by a master operator. Based on the requirements under the specified tendon-driven mechanism, the connecting position of the spring system on the gripper mechanism and kinematic influence coefficient (KIC) analysis are performed. As a result, a suitable combination of components for the proper design of the target system is presented and verified.
