The algorithm for relation of contact status, track shift, and contact force caused from wheel/rail contact geometry is presented. Grafting this algorithm into a algorithm of general program analyzing mechanical system, the program for time domain simulation of railway vehicle dynamics, called CASOTD, was developed. In addition, as applied example of CASOTD, the dynamic simulation of railway vehicle running on a rail joint and a irregularly alinemented rail is done in this paper.

The paper proposes a multi-body dynamic simulation to numerically evaluate the generated axial force(G.A.F) and plunging resistant force(P.R.F) practically related to the shudder and idling vibration of an automobile. A numerical analysis of two plunging types of CV joints, tripod joint(TJ) and very low axial tripod joint(VTJ), is conducted using the commercial program DAFUL. User-defined subroutines of a friction model illustrating the contacted parts of the outboard and inboard joint are subsequently developed to overcome the numerical instability and improve the solution performance. The Coulomb friction effect is applied to describe the contact models of the lubricated parts in the rolling and sliding mechanisms. The numerical results, in accordance with the joint articulation angle variation, are validated with experimentation. The offset between spider and tulip housing is demonstrated to be the critical role in producing the 3rd order component of the axial force that potentially causes the noise and vibration in vehicle. The VTJ shows an excellent behavior for the shudder when compared with TJ. In addition, a flexible nonlinear contact analysis coupled with rigid multi-body dynamics is also performed to show the dynamic strength characteristics of the rollers, housing, and spider.

This paper suggests novel types of joint mechanisms composed of elastic strings and rigid bodies. All of the human hinge joints have the articular capsule and a pair of collateral ligaments. These fibrous tissues make the joint compliant and stable. The proposed mechanism closely imitates the human hinge joint structure by using the concept of tensegrity. The resultant mechanism has several characteristics shown commonly from both the tensegrity structure and the human joint such as compliance, stability, lightweight, and non-contact between rigid bodies. In addition, the role and feature of the human hinge joints vary according to the origins of a pair of collateral ligaments. Likewise, the locations of two strings corresponding to a pair of collateral ligaments produce different function and motion of the proposed mechanism. It would be one of the advantages obtained from the proposed mechanism. How to make a joint mechanism with different features is also suggested in this paper.

This articles describes a novel design elastic joint manipulator for a mobile robot, which works in an office environment with humans. The primary goal of this manipulator design is safeness on collision and contact. To achieve this, each joint is made of an elastic element and this is driver with a high ratio gear tram. The performance was verified, however, it has a serious drawback. It produce vibration, due to the elastic joints and high ratio gear train. We found that a sliding mode controller has an excellent performance for reducing such vibration. Results of computer simulation and experiments are shown.

인공무릎관절의 수명에 직접적인 영향을 주는 인자는 접촉면에 대한 접촉면적과 압력분포이다 따라서. 이에 대한 실험적인 평가가 필요하였고 knee simulator 혹은 K-scan sensor를 포함한 시스템과 같은 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 지금까지 보행주기에 따른 연속적인 인공관절 운동에 대한 접촉면의 압력분포를 실시간으로 분석한 연구는 미흡하다 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 보행주기를 모사하는 simulator와 I-scan을 이용하여 연속적인 동작에 따른 접촉면의 압력분포를 분석함에 있다. 본 연구의 목적을 이루기 위해서 생체내 인공관절 환경을 정확히 표현할 수 있는 knee simulator를 제작하였다. 네 방향의 자유도를 갖고 있는 본 simulator는 soft tissue의 기능을 포함하고 있고 PC Program을 통하여 압축하중과 femoral component의 굴곡각을 조절할 수 있다. 본 시스템의 I-scan sensor는 보행주기에 따른 압력분포를 분석할 수 있다. 보행주기에 대한 압력분포는 압축하중곡선에 따라 주요하게 변화함을 알 수 있고 운동성에 영향을 쿠는 압력중심의 위치도 변한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제작한 knee simulator는 보행주기 같은 특정의 운동정보를 이용하여 접촉면의 압력분포 및 운동성 같은 기계적 성능을 평가할 수 있고 형상 설계를 위한 기초 자료를 제공할 수 있다.

A flange joint is a pipe connection used to prevent the leakage of high-pressure fluids by inserting a gasket and tightening the bolts. Among several kinds of gaskets available, metal ring type joint gaskets are most widely used in conditions that require high-temperature and high-pressure fluid flow, such as oil pipelines, gas pipes, pumps, valve joints, etc. The purpose of this study is to investigate the contact pressure and stress characteristics closely related to the sealing performance of Class 900 flange joints used in high temperature and high pressure environments. The dimensions of flange joints with five different nominal pipe sizes were determined with reference to those specified in ASME 16.5. The metal ring gaskets inserted in the joints were octagonal and oval gaskets. The bolt tensile forces calculated from the tightening torques were input as the bolt pretension loads in order to determine the contact pressure and stress levels after fastening. Loading was composed of three steps, including the fastening step, and different amounts of applied pressures were used in each analysis to investigate the effect of fluid pressure on the contact force of the joints. A general-purpose software, ANSYS 17.2, was used for the analysis.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of foot landing type (forefoot vs. rearfoot landing) on kinematics, kinetics, and energy absorption of hip, knee, and ankle joints. Method: Twenty-five healthy men performed single-leg landings with two different foot landing types: forefoot and rearfoot landing. A motion-capture system equipped with eight infrared cameras and a synchronized force plate embedded in the floor was used. Three-dimensional kinematic and kinetic parameters were compared using paired two-tailed Student's t-tests at a significance level of .05. Results: On initial contact, a greater knee flexion angle was shown during rearfoot landing (p < .001), but the lower knee flexion angle was found at peak vertical ground reaction force (GRF) (p < .001). On initial contact, ankles showed plantarflexion, inversion, and external rotation during forefoot landing, while dorsiflexion, eversion, and internal rotation were shown during rearfoot landing (p < .001, all). At peak vertical GRF, the knee extension moment and ankle plantarflexion moment were lower in rearfoot landing than in forefoot landing (p = .003 and p < .001, respectively). From initial contact to peak vertical GRF, the negative work of the hip, knee, and ankle joint was significantly reduced during rearfoot landing (p < .001, all). The contribution to the total work of the ankle joint was the greatest during forefoot landing, whereas the contribution to the total work of the hip joint was the greatest during rearfoot landing. Conclusion: These results suggest that the energy absorption strategy was changed during rearfoot landing compared with forefoot landing according to lower-extremity joint kinematics and kinetics.

본 연구는 교량 신축이음에 대해서 윤하중 재하실험을 통해 윤하중 재하 특성을 분석하고 이를 토대로 신축이음에서의 윤하중 재하기준을 마련하는 기초데이터를 확보하고자 실시하였다. 이를 위해 국내에서 많이 사용되고 있는 레일신축이음과 핑거신축이음에 대하여 시험체를 제작하고 실제 타이어 바퀴를 사용한 정적 윤하중 재하실험을 실시하였다. 윤하중에 접촉된 레일과 핑거에서 윤하중 분배율을 파악하였는데, 레일신축이음에서 중앙 레일이 지지하는 분담율은 윤하중 크기가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 것으로 나타났고 핑거신축이음에서는 접촉 면적 증가에 따라 거의 증가하지 않고 일정하게 됨을 알 수 있었다. 윤하중 재하 특성이 기존 설계기준과 많은 차이를 나타내고 있으므로 신축이음 설계를 위한 윤하중 접지압력 분포에 대한 합리적인 기준 마련이 필요하다고 판단되었다.

Internal and external heat sources will cause to deform to machine elements in the contact joint of structure,which results in the change of contact pressure distribution different from initial assembly. Heat induced variations of contact pressure will change the static and dynamic properties such as contact stiffness,damping as well as contact heat conduction in the structure. In order to design and control the intelligent machine tool operating in variant conditions more sophisticatedly, the good prediction for the changes of prescribed propeties are strongly required especially in the contact elements adjacent to the rotational or linear bearing This paper presents some computational and experimental results in regard to static and dynamic characteristics of the press-fitted bush and shaft assembly which is a model of the bearing innerrace and shaft assembly. In the condition of heat generation on the outer surface of the bush,the effects of changes in the negative clearance and the heat flux on pressure distribution and dynamic properties are investigated. Results of this study show that the edge effect of the bush and the initial clearance have effects on the transient dynamic characteristics significantiy.
