A static load analysis of twin-screw kneaders is required not only for the dynamic analysis, but also because it is the basis of the stiffness and strength calculations that are essential for the design of bearings. In this paper, the static loads of twin-screw kneaders are analyzed, and a mathematical model of the force and torque moments is presented using a numerical integration method based on differential geometry theory. The calculations of the force and torque moments of the twin-screw kneader are given. The results show that the $M_x$ and $M_y$ components of the fluid resistance torque of the rotors change periodically in each rotation cycle, but the $M_z$ component remains constant. The axis forces $F_z$ in the female and male rotors are also constant. The static load calculated by the proposed method tends to be conservative compared to traditional methods. The proposed method not only meets the static load analysis requirements for twin-screw kneaders, but can also be used as a static load analysis method for screw pumps and screw compressors.

Ball screw drives are widely used in industry, and many studies have been devoted on precise, fast and robust control of ball screw drives. In this study, a novel position control algorithm for ball screw drives is proposed, which consist of a PD controller, a friction feedforward and a disturbance observer. The dynamics and the position error of such controller are analyzed to establish an error model, which can be used to predict the resulting position error of the given desired trajectory. Using the proposed error model, the desired trajectory can be modified so that the predicted position error can be compensated in a feedforward manner. The proposed algorithm does not require the model of the system for the error prediction, and thus can be easily applied to conventional control systems. The performance of the system is verified through simulations and experiments.

There are a lot of difference between the surface settlement and the differential settlement measured at the Busan New Port, where the dredged and reclaimed clay layer exists and below the clay is originally thickly distributed. To find the cause and solution of this, the actual conditions of each differential settlement used for the soft ground improvement, characteristics, installation method, measurement frequency, measurement data management, and data analysis of each type were considered. In the deep soft ground improvement work where large deformation occurs, the bending deformation of the screw-type differential settlement gauge is less than that of other types of measuring instruments, so there is less risk of loss, and the reliability of data is relatively high as the instruments are installed by drilling for each stratum. Since the greater the amount of high-precision settlement measurement data, the higher the settlement analysis precision. It is necessary to manage with higher criteria than the measurement frequency suggested in the standard specification. For the data management of the differential settlement gauge, it is desirable to create graphs of the settlement and embankment height of the relevant section over time, such as surface, differential, and settlement of pore water pressure gauge for each point. In the case of multi-layered ground with different compression characteristics, it is more appropriate to perform settlement analysis by calculating the consolidation characteristics of each stratum using a differential settlement data.

In this paper, we developed the micro NCT system for punching the thin plates, which is driven is driven by the standalone type microprocessor. In order to adjust the alignment between the punch and die in-situ punching procedures, the non-contact type laser sensor for measuring the burr and micro-driving system for punching die with using the differential screw are developed. The height of burr in four directions in the punched hole of test specimen are measured, and the measured data are transferred to the personal computer by RS232C serial communication technology. In the personal computer, by using the graphic user interface type monitoring program and data handling procedures which includes the filtering algorithms, the direction and length of movement of the die position is decided and these data are transferred back to the microprocessor. The microprocessor drives the micro positioning stage based on these data. Even if this method is not a perfect solution for the in-situ alignment in micro punching, but this alignment methodology is accomplished in the same stage just after the punching that we hope to solve the alignment problem in the punching system based on this technology.

The aircraft flight control system controls an aircraft's direction and flying attitude, and actuators are key components of control systems. Actuators can be classified as Geared Rotary Actuator (GRA) and Ball Screw Actuator (BSA). GRA is used in mid-sized aircraft, and BSA is used in larger aircraft. A two-stage differential GRA model was suggested in this paper, and structural analysis and performance tests were performed. According to the analysis and experiment, the stiffness of the two-stage differential GRA was 17.57% higher than that of the conventional GRA, and the structural safety was improved.

This study is about laser welded joints in order to replace the traditional screw connection of a differential gear and its case in the differential gear assembly. Screws are usually used to join these parts. But the screws take up weight and space. So we needed to improve the joining method. In the welding of a differential gear and its case, the quality is much harder to control, because the high carbon contents of the two components results in cold cracks. But a new method that adds wire allows these materials to be joined. Additionally, more distortions generally occurs in the welded joints than in screws. We tried to prove that laser welding is an available method for joining these parts through the measurement and various tests.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of processing parameters of co-rotating twin screw extruder and dry methods on the level of resistant starch (RS) and the properties of extrudate prepared from normal maize starch. The processing parameters were used 90, 110, 130$^{\circ}C$ in temperature, 25.0~30.0% in moisture content, 150, 200, 250 rpm in screw speed and hot and cool air drying and drying after refrigerating in drying methods. The barrel temperature and drying methods had affected the level of resistant starch of extrudate. RS levels of extrudates were ranged from 2.4 to 15.5% by AOAC method. The extrudates, extruded at 110$^{\circ}C$ and then stored at 4$^{\circ}C$, showed the highest level of RS level (15.5%). Water absorption index increased with increasing moisture content and peak temperatures and viscosities of extudates decreased compare to that of raw starch from 94$^{\circ}C$ to 50~65$^{\circ}C$ and from 220 to 46~98 RVU, respectively. Extudates treated in 90$^{\circ}C$ and 110$^{\circ}C$ showed strong peak at $2{\theta}=6.7{\sim}17.0^{\circ}$ by X-ray diffractometry and had ~150$^{\circ}C$ endotherm like as that of RS3 starch by differential scanning calorimetry. In case of 130$^{\circ}C$, extrudates showed strong peak at $2{\theta}=20.0^{\circ}$ and had 106$^{\circ}C$ endotherm.

MWNTs have been widely investigated due to unique properties of such as good electrical conductivity and thermal stability in polymer composites industries. This paper established the procedure to fabricate PMMA/MWNT composites by a modular intermeshing co-rotating twin screw extruder with L/D ratio of 42. The electrical properties of PMMA/MWNT composites with different content of MWNT have been investigated. A sheet resistance percolation was observed at 4 wt% of MWNT for the melt processed composites. Sheet resistance of PMMA/MWNT composite film containing 4 wt% of MWNT was nearby $10^4{\Omega}/sq$ and this shows the possibility of potential application to EMI (Electronic Magnetic Interference) shielding materials. The characteristics of composites were analyzed by TGA, DSC, and SEM. In addition, MFI (Melt Flow Index) has been measured to analyze the rheological property.

Mechanical properties and morphology of pectin/starch blend films depending upon the composition and plasticizer ratio were studied. Blends were prepared continuously in a twin-screw extruder. Films were prepared using a single-screw extruder with slit die. Most of the blends showed a good thermoplastic behavior, while the blends with very high ratio of pectin/starch had a poor thermoplasticity. Tensile properties of blend films were changed significantly by the amount of glycerol and relatively little by the ratio of pectin/starch. Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) curves of wet blends showed a transition similar to glass transition temperature(Tg) at about $125^{\circ}C$. It was found by Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) study that there exists a good interfacial adhesion between pectin and starch.

A moving mass on a skewed linear guideway model to analyze the friction-induced stick-slip behavior of ball-screw-driven slides is proposed. To describe the friction force, a friction coefficient function is modelled as a third-order polynomial of the relative velocity between the slide mass and a guideway. A nonlinear differential equation of motion is derived and an approximate solution is obtained using a perturbation method for the amplitudes and base frequencies of both pure-slip and stick-slip oscillations. The results are presented with time responses, phase plots, and amplitude plots, which are compared adequately with those obtained by Runge Kutta 4th-order numerical integration, as long as the difference between the static and kinematic friction coefficients is small. However, errors in the results by the approximate solution increase and are not negligible if the difference between the friction coefficients exceeds approximately 40% of the static friction coefficient.
