The production processes were reviewed through the injection analysis of the shift lever as a core component of an auto lever installed in the automatic transmission of cars. The injection analysis was carried out for the shift lever and rod among the components in a shift lever module. The shift lever and rod are designed for injection molding with the insertion of a tube, a pin cable plate, and a steel rod for securing the strength of the product. The charging time, failure of injection molding, weld line, air trap, and deformation were reviewed according to this insert. Analyses on various gate positions were carried out for reviewing the cultivation and deformation of fiber around major components, such as the generation section of manipulation feeling and assembly section, so that optimal gate conditions might be reviewed and reflected in the mold design. Finally, we plan to compare the analysis results with the production of trial products.

This paper addresses a feedback linearization control problem for the nonlinear dynamics of an underwater glider system. We consider the buoyancy and moment as control inputs, which come from the mass variation and elevator control, respectively. Moment-to-force coupling increases the nonlinearities, which make the controller design difficult. By using a feedback linearization technique, we convert the nonlinear underwater glider to an equivalent linear model and design a linear controller. The controller for the equivalent converted linear system is designed using sufficient conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Then, the control input of the nonlinear model of an underwater glider is formulated from the linear control input. An experimental examination is implemented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

This paper proposes the defect detection method for automatic inspection machines in printed circuit boards (PCBs) manufacturing system. The defects of PCB such as open, short, pin hole and scratch can be detected by comparing the standard image and the target image. The standard image is obtained from CAD file such as ODB++ format, and the target image is obtained by arranging, filtering and binarization of captured PCB image. Since the PCB size is too large and image resolution is too high, the image processing requires a lot of memory and computational time. The wavelet transform is applied to compress the standard and target images, which results in reducing the memory and computational time. To increase the inspection accuracy, we utilize the he HH-domain as well as LL-domain of the transformed images. Experimental results are finally presented to show the performance improvement of the proposed method.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of an automatic alignment and loading system for workpieces. To move a workpiece to a chucking position of a machine tool using a gantry robot, an automatic aligning device is required to load the workpiece before machining and automatically align them. The automatic alignment system was conceptually designed, and the structural analysis was performed for the main parts such as the top plate, center support, front and back support, and support shaft. Based on the structural analysis results, the size of these structures was determined. The automatic alignment system was manufactured, and the vertical movement characteristics of the workpiece up-and-down movement device and the rotation characteristics of the workpiece rotation device were experimentally examined. The result has confirmed that they operate normally.

This paper presents the design of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) for electric air conditioning compressors which are applied to hybrid electric vehicles (EVs). The motor for driving air conditioning compressor which is recently used on EV(electric vehicle) / HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) is PMSM(permanent magnet synchronous motor) or BLDCM(brushless DC motor). However disadvantage of motors that uses permanent magnets are vulnerable to high temperatures because of the demagnetization by the high temperature and the permanent magnet is expensive because of the high price of rare earth materials from China's monopoly. Therefore, in the automotive insustry is interested in the non-rare-earth motors. SRM has many advantages. it's resistant to high temperatures, price is cheaper, because there are no permanent magnets and winding in the rotor. Also it's high relability and efficiency, suitable for high-speed operation because of structure is simple. In this paper, the SRM, non-rare-earth motor, are designed, analyzed and experimented drive to replace an existing electric compressor drive motor.

In the flat panel display and semiconductor industries, the visual alignment system is considered as a core technology which determines the productivity of a manufacturing line. It consists of the vision system to extract the centroids of alignment marks and the stage control system to compensate the alignment error. In this paper, we develop a Kalman filter algorithm to estimate the alignment mark postures and propose a coarse-fine alignment control method which utilizes both original fine images and reduced coarse ones in the visual feedback. The error compensation trajectory for the distributed joint servos of the alignment stage is generated in terms of the inverse kinematic solution for the misalignment in task space. In constructing the estimation algorithm, the equation of motion for the alignment marks is given by using the forward kinematics of alignment stage. Secondly, the measurements for the alignment mark centroids are obtained from the reduced images by applying the geometric template matching. As a result, the proposed Kalman filter based coarse-fine alignment control method enables a considerable reduction of alignment time.

As flying robots are becoming popular, there are increased needs to use themforsuch purposes as parcel delivery, serving in restaurants, and stage performances. To control flying robots such as quad copters, localization is essential. In order to properly position flying robots, many techniques are in development, including IR (infra-red)-based systemswhich catch markers on a flying robot in order that it can position itself. However, this technique demonstrates only short coverage. Furthermore, localization from inertial sensors diverges as time passes. For this reason, this paper suggests a TWR (two-way ranging) based positioning technique. Despite the weaknesses in currently available TWR system, this paper suggests a self-positioning and outlier detection technique in order to provide reliable position information with a faster update rate. The self-positioning system sends a shorter message which reduces wireless traffic. By detecting and removing outlier measurements, a positioning result with better accuracy is acquired. Finally, this paper shows that the suggesting system detects outlierssequentially from less than half the number of anchors in localization system according to the degree of outlier in measurement and the noise level. By performing an outlier algorithm, better positioning accuracy is acquired as shown in the experimental result.

CCD형 영상소자는 방사선 피폭 시 표면과 격자내부에 모두 손상을 받게 되며, 감마방사선이나 X선과 같은 고에너지의 이온화 방사선에 노출될 경우 격자 실리콘 내부에 전자-전공쌍(Electron-hole pair, EHP)이 발생된다. 이러한 EHP는 CCD의 순간 출력 광전류로 변환되어 백색 화소 형태의 영상잡음으로 가시화되며, 이 화소 수는 피폭 방사선량에 비례하여 증가하는 특성을 지니고 있다. 따라서 출력 영상정보를 분석하면 조사된 방사선의 양과 특성을 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 CCD를 이용하여 가상의 방사능 물질 누출 공간에서 방사선원의 방향과 거리정보를 고속으로 탐지하기 위한 장치와 고속 측정 알고리즘을 구현하고 실제 방사선장에서 실증시험을 수행하였다. 방사선 탐지기는 콘형 납 콜리메이터(Collimator)와 가시광 변환용 신틸레이터(CsITl) 및 차폐체로 구성된 센서부와 제어 및 방사광 신호처리를 수행하는 PC부로 구성된다. 감마방사선($^{60}Co$) 방사선장 실증시험에서 방사선원간 거리 83cm에서 측정된 거리 탐지는 5.3%의 오차로 확인되었다. 이 방사선 탐지기는 임의의 고방사선 누출사고에 대한 초기대응 작업을 수행하기 위한 무인 이동로봇용 방사선 탐지기로 활용이 가능하다.

In this paper, 15[kW] AC regenerative system for battery charging and discharging test is proposed. The regenerative system is able to regenerate surplus energy to the grid in discharging mode, and the inverter of the system can be operated as a converter to compensate scarce energy in charging mode. In case of the conventional DC charging and discharging system, the regenerative energy is consumed by a resistor. However, as the proposed system regenerates the surplus energy to the grid through using DC-AC inverter, the energy saving effect can be achieved. In this paper, 15[kW] battery charging and discharging system is developed, and the validity of the system is verified through simulation and experimental results.
