There and two important variables in machining process control, which are feed and cutting speed. It is possible to improve the machining accuracy and the productivity by maintaining the optimal feed and cutting speed. In this work, a controller is designed to achieve on-line cutting force control based on the modeling of cutting process dynamics established through step response test. Two schemes are proposed and implemented. The first is feed control under the constant spindle speed and the second is spindle speed control under the constant feed. Finally, both are proved to work properly through simulation and experimentation.

The control systems with friction cause the steady state error and slow response, because friction is a sensitive to the change of system condition and has highly nonlinear characteristics. To overcome these problems and do precise position control for a ball-screw system, we use Coulomb friction estimator and the sliding mode control(SMC) to compensate its negative effect. The applied SMC for tracking position has a characteristics of robust stability and reducing chattering, and is derived from the Lyapunov stability theorem and reaching condition. Compensating the estimated friction torque to the bounded disturbance term of the SMC's equivalent control input, it has a tracking performance better than the PID from the experimental results.

In this paper, we propose a control strategy for a class of nonholonomic systems. A system with nonholonomic constraint is called a nonholonomic system, and as Brockett showed, the equilibrium of such systems can not be stabilized with any continuous static state feedbacks even though the system is controllable in the sense of nonlinear. A control strategy we propose is transforming this system into time-state control form by coordinate transformation and input transformation. We will apply this control strategy to the motion control of a rigid ball that is held between two parallel plates.

Magnetic levitation systems are required to have a large operating range in many applications. As one method to solve this problem, Time Delay Control (TDC) is applied to a single-axis magnetic levitation system in this paper A reduced-order observer is utilized to estimate states excluding measurable states in the control law. The system consists of a square air-core solenoid and a circular permanent magnet attached on a plastic ball. Theoretical magnetic forces of the system are obtained on the basis of the location of the magnet around the solenoid. The magnetic levitation force is obtained by the experiment, and then compared with the theoretical one. As the results of the control experiments, the nonlinear controller (TDC : 1-2 ㎜) has a larger operating range than the linear controller (PD control : 1-1.4 ㎜), and is superior to linear. control in the robustness to the modeling uncertainty and the performance of the disturbance rejection.

The growth conditions of planted trees, invasion of nuisance herbaceous species, competition between species, and effects of erosion control were monitored over five years in a riparian greenspace in Gapyeong County that was established through multilayered and grouped ecological planting. Of 156 trees planted in the upper and middle layers, 5.8% died. This tree death was attributed to poor drainage or aeration in the rooting zone from the clay-added root ball and too deep planting as well as a small-sized root ball and scanty fine roots. Of all the trees, 21.6% grew poorly due to transplant stress in the first year after planting, but they started to grow vigorously in the third year. This good growth was largely associated with soil improvement before planting, selection of appropriate tree species based on growth ground, and control of dryness and invasive climbing plants through surface mulching and multilayered/grouped planting. Mixed planting of fast-growing species as temporary trees was desirable for accelerating planting effect and increasing planting density. Thinning of fast-growing trees was required in the fifth year after planting to avoid considerable competition with target species. To reduce the invasion of herbaceous and climbing plants that oppress normal growth of planted trees, higher density planting of trees (crown opening of about 15%), woodchip mulching to a 10-cm depth, and edge planting 2 m wide were more effective than lower density planting (crown opening of 70%), no surface mulching, and no edge planting, respectively. This reduction effect was especially great during the first three years after planting. Nuisance herbaceous plants rarely invaded higher density planting with woodchip mulching over the five years. Higher density planting or woodchip mulching also showed much greater erosion control through rainfall interception and buffering than lower density planting with no mulching did. Based on these results, desirable planting and management strategies are suggested to improve the functions of riparian greenspaces.

Most upland in Korea have irregular field shapes. Boom sprayers working alone winding row will show considerable differences of spraying amount per unit area between left and right booms. If flow rates of both booms are equal. This phenomenon becomes significant as steering radius of sprayer decreases. This study was performed to seek a method which reduce the difference of the spray amount between left, right and center booms while spraying along curvy rows. A flow rate control method for keeping application rate of each boom section constant was proposed and experimentally proved using a boom sprayer attached to a cultivating tractor. The flow rate control device was composed of 3 ball valves and a rotary angle sensor. The rotary angle sensor showed a symmetric voltage output with respect to steering radius. The spray overlapping was happened in a boom nearby the steering center when steering radius of the sprayer was less than 5.2 m. Flow rates for left, right and center booms were regulated using ball valves based on the steering radius and spraying areas ration of right/left boom. The Maximum spraying area ratio ($S_{LR}$) of left to right boom section was 1:3.6 at the steering radius of 5.2 m. However, The Maximum achieved right and left spraying flow ratio was 1:2.7.

Purpose: This study evaluated the potential of a vacuum-brazed dental diamond dresser as an alternative to commercially available electroplated diamond dressers and assess its suitability for clinical use. Methods: Commercially available electroplated diamond dressers were selected as the control group (n=5), whereas vacuum-brazed diamond dressers with 80 grit and 100 grit particles were fabricated as the experimental groups (n=5 each). Prepared specimens were evaluated for surface roughness, wear resistance, and abrasiveness against a wear-inducing element (ZrO₂ ball). The results were reported as means and standard deviations. Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's HSD test using SPSS Statistics ver. 23.0 (IBM), with the significance level set at 0.05. Results: Surface roughness was highest in the 80 grit group (23.99±3.62 ㎛) followed by the 100 grit group (20.38±1.79 ㎛) and the control group (17.59±0.56 ㎛). Wear resistance was greatest in the control group (0.0060±0.0009 g) followed by the 80 grit group (0.0018±0.0003 g) and the 100 grit group (0.0013±0.0001 g). Abrasiveness against the ZrO₂ ball was highest in the 80 grit group (0.120±0.007 g) followed by the 100 grit group (0.101±0.007 g) and the control group (0.086±0.004 g). Conclusion: This study offers key insights for enhancing the performance of diamond dressers through vacuum-brazing and is expected to aid in the development of more efficient and durable diamond dressers for future applications.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop dental alumina ceramic dressers, evaluate their abrasive wear characteristics based on particle size, and identify dental dressers with optimal particle size and performance. Methods: Commercial ceramic dressers (n=5) were selected as the control group, whereas alumina ceramic dressers with 80-grit and 120-grit particles were fabricated as the experimental groups (n=5 each). Prepared specimens were assessed for surface roughness, wear resistance, and abrasiveness against a wear-inducing element (SUS304 stainless steel ball). Means and standard deviations were calculated for each test. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis H test with Bonferroni correction (α=0.05) via SPSS Statistics ver. 23.0 (IBM). Results: Surface roughness was highest in the 80-grit group (22.734±1.308 ㎛), followed by 120-grit group (21.804±0.785 ㎛), and lowest in control group (15.782±0.223 ㎛). Wear resistance was greatest in 120-grit group (0.007±0.002 g), followed by the 80-grit group (0.007±0.004 g), and lowest in the control group (0.370±0.010 g). Furthermore, abrasiveness against the wear-inducing element (SUS304 stainless steel ball) was highest in 120-grit group (0.017±0.003 g), followed by the 80-grit group (0.015±0.003 g), and lowest in control group (0.010±0.001 g). Conclusion: Based on the combined results of surface roughness, wear resistance, and abrasiveness against a wear-inducing element, the newly developed alumina ceramic dressers show promise for clinical application.

This paper presents a cell-based motion control strategy for soccer playing mobile robots. In the central robot motion planner, the planar ground is divided into rectangular cells with variable sizes and motion indices to which direction the mobile robot should move. At every time the multiple objects-the goal gate, ball, and robots-detected, integer values of motion indices are assigned to the cells occupied by mobile robots. Once the indices being calculated, the most desirable state-action pair is chosen from the state and action sets to achieve successful soccer game strategy. The proposed strategy is computationally simple enough to be used for fast robotic soccer system.
