A Dual Mass Flywheel(D.M.F.) system is an evolution to the reduction of torsional vibration and impact noise occurring in powertrain when a vehicle is either moving or idling. The D.M.F. system has two flywh-eels, which is different from the conventional clutch system. One section belongs to the mass moment of in-ertia of the engine-side. The other section increases the mass moment of inertia of the transmission-side. These two masses are connected via a spring/damping system. This reduces the speed at which the dreaded resonance occurs to below idle speed. Since 1984m D.M.F. system has been developed. However, the processes of development of D.M.F. system don't have any difference from the trial and error method of conventional clutch system. This paper present the method for systematical design of D.M.F. system with dimensionless design varia-bles of D.M.F. system, mass ratio between two flywheels, natural frequency rate of two flywheels, and visc-osity coefficient. And expermental results are used to prove these theoretical results.

In this study, various thermodynamic and hydrodynamic parameters characterizing the solution properties of polyethylene ionomer particles in water were determined at $30^{\circ}C$ by means of light scattering and viscosity measurements. Based on the experimental data, we investigated the solution behavior of three kinds of polyethylene ionomers, which are different in composition of the pendant ionic groups of COOK, COOH and $CONH_{2}$, and characterized their particle properties. Ionomers containing 7.6 mol% potassium salt only behave as flexible coils in a relatively good solvent state. On the other hand, two ionomers containing 3.8 mol% amide group together with potassium salt form the compact particles. In addition, the concentration dependence of the effective diffusion coefficient $(D_{eff})$ and the reduced viscosity of the latter ionomers showed the opposite trend from the former, indicating that the composition of the pendant ionic groups have a great influence on the interparticle interaction of ionomers formed in water.
