Commutator which plays the major role in switching electric currents from AC to DC is composed of copper and molding compound. The longevity of the DC motors are mostly hampered by the improper machining of the parts. Smooth surface will be mandatory to create the proper air gap of the commutator. In this thesis the selection of the proper materials and tools, the design and analysis of machine structure and the final test procedures have been investigated to achieve the smooth cut surface of the commutators. The performance and the product of the newly manufactured machine has been compared with those of the existing one. And the test result shows the new sawing machine has better overall efficiency and durability.

Laboratory works for embedded system courses are usually performed with hardware based experimental kits that equipped with an embedded board and software development tools. Hardware-based kits have demerits such as high initial setup cost, burdensome maintenance, inadaptability to industry evolution, and restricted educational outcomes. This paper proposes using virtual experimental environments to overcome the demerits of hardware-based kits and describes the design and implementation of a simulation-based virtual experimental kit. With ARM's ARMulator, we developed the kit by adding hardware IPs and user interface modules for peripherals. The developed kit is verified with an experimental program that uses all the augmented software modules. We also ported MicroC/OS-II on the virtual experimental kit for real-time OS experiments.

With the curriculum revision by the ministry of education in 2015, informatics was required to be included in the secondary high school curriculum, and applied to elementary and high schools in order. In response to this trend, universities are also emphasizing programming education. Arduino is one of the famous tools for programming education, and the usefulness of it has been proven through various case studies. However, existing Arduino-based kits are not easy to use with limited hardware knowledge. It is also difficult to expand the kits in a way other than that given in the original design. In this paper, proposed is a new kit design that can solve the problems mentioned above. The proposed design is superior to existing ones in usability and scalability, and can be used in various ways according to the amount of prior knowledge. The proposed design is registered as a patent and development of a kit based on it is underway.

This study is a basic research to develop kit and program for fashion psychotherapy, a new genre of therapy. Symptom checklist, self-esteem evaluation, interpersonal relationship problem evaluation and fashion preference evaluation were conducted on 159 college students in Seoul. The results were analyzed with t-test and one-way ANOVA. The result showed that first, warm color preference was significantly high in interpersonal problem among psychological problems. Second, smooth material preference was significantly high in paranoia among psychological problems. Third, differences in design preferences by psychological problems were not significant. Fourth, differences in design preferences between abnormal range and normal range of psychological problems were significant in line shape, with depression abnormal group showing significantly high straight line preference. Additionally, complex shape preference was significant in complexity in somatization and phobia abnormal groups. This study can be utilized in kit development for a new field, fashion psychotherapy. This study is significant as practical basic data in constructing fashion psychotherapy program.

This paper deals with experiments for dynamic characteristics and performance evaluation of the 3-axis fine positioning stage developed in [1]. The features of the developed fine positioning stage are the long stroke due to the magnetically preloaded PZT actuators, the minimum motion crosstalk due to the use of a ball contact mechanism and the compact design. The dynamic characteristics of the actuator and the stage are tested with the preload changed in order to validate the actuator and the stage design. Performance evaluation is also made for the PZT actuators as well as the stage positioning accuracy. Experimental results show that the developed stage is accurate enough to be used for nanometer positioning.

In this study, the optimal design of the multi-cavity mold layout and packing pressure for the automobile TCU connector cover is determined based on the injection molding analysis and the desirability function method for multi-characteristic optimization. The design characteristics to be optimized are the warpage and sink marks of the product, the scrap of the feed system, and the clamping force. The optimal design is determined by performing injection molding analysis and desirability analysis for design alternatives defined by a complete combination of five mold layouts and six-level packing pressure. The optimal design shows that the desirability values for individual characteristics are quite high and balanced, and the resulting values of individual characteristics are satisfactorily low.

Warpage and weld line are two major cosmetic defects in the injection molding process. These defects are very sensitive to uncontrollable parameters within the process. The optimization of the design variables can be treated with the use of robust designs. Therefore, in order to minimize the warpage and weld line, a special design method to diminish defects is required. In this study, a new robust design method using designer preference to achieve the optimal robust design conditions in the injection molding process is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown with an example of the part of warpage and weld line.
