This paper develops a robot arm for propeller blade grinding. The grinding work requires a high stiffness robot arm to reduce deformation and vibration which are generated during machining operation. Conventional articulated robots have serial connecting links from the base to the gripper. Thus, they have very weak structure to the stiffness for grinding operation. Stewart Platform is a typical parallel robotic mechanism with very high stiffness but it has small work space and large installation space. This research proposes a new grinding robot arm by combining parallel mechanism with serial mechanism. Therefore, the robot has large range of work space as well as high stiffness. This paper introduces the automatic system for propeller grinding utilizing the robot and the design of proposed robot arm.

Most studies of rotary machinery design have been performed to establsih a new mechanism or a dramatic combination of machine elements for the power transmission. Although the rotary machine is worked very efficiently, that still has a major work to better performance which is the optimization of the selected mechanism for the mechanical efficiency, low vibration and noise, or customer interest. This work presents a practical approach used for washer's efficiency and machinery vibration and noise reduction along with a systematic procedure. Also for the confirming the study, a computer simulation program and a real working mock-up are developed and used to show very good agreement with the analytical result.

IEEE 802.11a Distributed Coordination Function(DCF) Protocol을 사용하여 Real-Time MultiMedia Data의 전송을 수행할 경우, DCF Protocol의 적합하지 못한 Mechanism에 의하여, Data 전송의 극대화를 이루지 못한다. Retransmission이 반복되는 경우, Binary Slotted Exponential Backoff Mechanism은 거대한 Packet Delay와 Jitter의 원인이 되며 Automatic Repeat Request(ARQ) 방식의 Ack Mechanism은 MultiMedia Data를 전송하기에 적합하지 못하다. 본 논문은 위와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 Real-Time MultiMedia Data을 주로 전송하는 STA에 따른 Real-Time/Non-Real-Time(RT/NRT) Station(STA)의 구분과 보내고자 하는 Real-Time MultiMedia Data의 Network Traffic Load(The Required Bandwidth)를 고려하여, Modified DCF(mDCF) Protocol의 Modified Backoff(mBackOff), Modified BlockAck(mBlockAck) Mechanism을 제시함으로서, Data 전송의 극대화를 제공하며, 또한 IEEE 802.11a와의 호환성을 제공한다.

Degree-Of-Freedom(DOF) for most power transmission system varies according to the operation status which consists of friction elements to change the power flow or to adjust the speed ratio such as clutches, brakes or one-way clutches. To simulate the dynamic characteristics of automatic power transmission system which is a typical example of such a variable DOF systems, many sets of governing equations and complicated phase decision routines are necessary. In this paper dynamic constraint theorem is derived explaining the torque transmission characteristics during the clutch engagement process and a robust stable algorithm is developed describing this phase transition phenomenon effectively by introducing the concept of direct torque and virtual damping. Finally, applying this algorithm to a passenger car automatic transmission gear consisting of several friction elements, an efficient simulation methods for such a complex system will be suggested that is very simple and systematic.

On original exhibits, which is passive and repeat itself endlessly irrelevant of the present of spectators, reduce its immersion. Therefore in this paper, we propose the scheme to recreate original exhibits be adding automatic screen saver by using division of different images to make experimental of an area of different images, to judge movement, maintain conditions or to propose the transition of mechanism. By implementing and analyzing this automatic screen saver, which was made through the scheme of proposition, we show the positive aspect of the use of centralized automatic screen saver.

According to the rising of national economic level. domestic consumption of vegetables having high additive values is increased continuously due to increased consumption of meat in last decade. These vegetables are produced almost in this country and are limited to import from neighbor countries in due of high transportation expenses for storing in refrigerated container. It is very important to mechanize the harvest work, forming more than 30% for their production cost, in order to cultivate variable vegetables at the same time according to their harvesting seasons. In this state its former harvest methods, with using of human power or semi-automatic harvest, caused to increase their production cost due to high labor cost and low working efficiency. The former onion harvest being operated almost by semi-automatic plant distributer mechanism have many limit and troublesome for cultivation spaces, vinyle mulched ridge, gravel mixture in soil. Therefore, it is necessary to develope a fully automatic and self-running situation and overcome above handicaps, even in the farm covered with vinyle house or mulch sheets. This newly developed onion harvest can be applied to plant various young trees and will be able to export together with onion haying their competition in the worldwide market in which the culinary vegetable method or farm conditions is similar to our country.

This paper describes a mobile inspection robot with an automatic pipe tracking system for a feeder pipe inspection in a PHWR. The robot is composed of two inch worm mechanisms. One is for a longitudinal motion along a pipe, and the other is for a rotational motion in a circumferential direction to access all of the outer surfaces of a pipe. The proposed mechanism has a stable gripping capability and is easy to install. An automatic pipe tracking system is proposed based on machine vision techniques to make the mobile robot follow an exact outer circumference of a curved feeder pipe as closely as possible, which is one of the requirements of a thickness measurement system for a feeder pipe. The proposed sensing technique is analyzed to attain its feasibility and to develop a calibration method for an accurate measurement. A mobile robot and control system are developed, and the automatic pipe tracking system is tested in a mockup of a feeder pipe.
