Disk grinding was often applied to deburring process in order to enhance the final product quality. Inherent chamfering capability of the flexible disk grinding process in the early stage was analyzed with respect to various process parameters including workpiece length, wheel speed, depth of cut and feed. Initial chamfered edge defined as arc zone was characterized with local radius of curvature. Averaged radius and arc zone ratio was well evaluated using neural network system. Additional neural network analysis adding workpiece length showed enhance performance in predicting arc zone ratio and curvature radius with reduced error rate. A process condition design parameter was estimated using remaining input and output parameters with the prediction error rate lower than 2.0% depending on the relevant input parameter combination and neural network structure composition.

On the bending process, metal-strap plays an important role in dispersing the stress generated in wood. Therefore, the metal-strap has more influence on the property of bentwood materials. The effect of the metal-strap thickness for bentwood was examined. The effect of metal-strap on the bending properties of Korean red pine(Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.)was investigated in this research. The metal-strap thickness is divided into 4 kinds such as 1.0, 0.8, 0.6, 0.4 mm. The specimens were selected by grain such as annual ring angles, flat grain and half-edge grain specimens. As a result of this study, the bending ability of 1.0, 0.8 mm, thickness of half-edge grain specimens was better than flat grain specimens but the result of 0.6, 0.4 mm were reversed. The bending ability of half-edge grain was better than flat grain and the grade was higher. When the processed specimens were dried, the radius of curvature(ROC) was decreased became drying-stress was not perfectly dispersed. An optimum drying-condition would deminish this phenomenon.

Increasing marine transportation of dangerous goods using containers causes fire accidents on ships due to leakage of dangerous materials. In IMO (MSC.93), all vessels that are to be loaded five or more containers on weather deck area after 1 January 2016 are required to have a fire extinguishing system called Water Mist Lance (WML) on board. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to design WML with optimal edge radius of curvature using LS-DYNA. The analysis results for the three models with 10 mm, 15 mm and 20 mm lengths of the edge part showed that the only model with 15 mm length penetrated the wall of the container and did not cause damage to the edge of the WML. In the future, based on the results of this study, we will make a WML of prototype and conduct a performance test. And we will continue to improve the problems.

Interference can cause serious problems in our daily life. Traditional ways in localizing a target can't work well when it comes to the source of interference for it may take an uncooperative or even resistant attitude towards localization. To tackle this issue, we take the BPSN (Binary Proximity Sensor Networks) and consider a passive way in this paper. No cooperation is needed and it is based on simple sensor node suitable for large-scale deployment. By dividing the sensing field into different patches, when enough patches are formed, good localization accuracy can be achieved with high resolution. Then we analyze the relationship between sensing radius and localization error, we find that in a finite region where edge effect can't be ignored, the trend between sensing radius and localization error is not always consistent. Through theoretical analysis and simulation, we explore to determine the best sensing radius to achieve high localization accuracy.

This paper examined strain distribution and radius of curvature of the bulge by finite element method and investigated limit polar thickness strain to predict the formability of sheet metal as we substituted effective strain and the radius of curvature obtained by FEM into instability condition equation successively. In experiment, the radius of curvature and limit polar thickness strainwere obtained by Moire method. Also, a concent- ric set of photogrid circles was used to measure the strain of arbitrary point and mild steel was used as material. This results obtained are as follows: 1) The radius of curvature obtained by FEM is in good agreement with the Moire experimental value. 2) The polar thickness strain is getting larger as the inside is approached from the edge. This means that fracture occurred near the ploe. 3) The circumferential strains agree closely with the meridian strains and the polar thickness strain is about twice the circumferential (or meridian) strain. This result agrees with the fact that anisotropy coefficient (R-value) obtained by tensile test is about one. 4) The theoretical results of limit polar thickness strain obtained by authors' method are better agreement with experimental results than other theoretical results. Therefore, we can better predict the formability of sheet metal with authors' method.

Chip flow angle is one of the important factors to be determined for the scheme of Chip Control. Up to now, however, a dependable way to predict the chip flow angle in practical cutting has not been established satisfactorily. In this paper a rather simple theoretical prediction of chip flow angle is tried based on some already widely confirmed hypotheses. The developed equation of chip flow angle contains the parameters of depth of cut d, feed rate f, nose radius $r_{n}$ side cutting edge angle $C_{s}$, side rake angle .alpha.$_{s}$ and back rake angle .alpha.$_{b}$. Theoretical results of chip flow angle given by this study bas been shown in a good agreement with experimental ones.s.s.s.s.

This paper presents the construction of an ultra-precision machining system and machining experiments using the developed system. The system is composed of air bearing system, granite bed, air pad, and linear feeding mechanism. The cutting conditions have great effect on the surface quality in ultra-precision machining. the ultra-precision machining is mainly processed by several ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ depth of cut and feed rate. For this, tools with sharper cutting edge and less tool wear are needed. To satisfy these requirement, diamond is generally used as a tool material for ultra-precision machining. In order to evaluate the cutting characteristics of the PCD and MCD tools on the aluminum alloy, the machining experiments performed using the developed system.

We present the radial variations of the scale heights and the vertical velocity dispersions in a sample of nearby edge-on galaxies using BIMA/CARMA $^{12}CO$ ($J=1{\rightarrow}0$), VLA/EVLA HI, and Spitzer $3.6{\mu}m$ data. Both the disk thicknesses and the velocity dispersions of gas and stars vary with radius, contrary to assumptions of previous studies. We investigate how the interstellar gas pressure and the gravitational instability parameter differ from values derived assuming constant velocity dispersions and scale heights. Using the measurement of the disk thicknesses and the derived radial profiles of gas and stars, we estimate the corresponding volume densities. The gravitational instability parameter Q follows a fairly uniform profile with radius and is ${\geq}1$ across the star-forming disk. The star formation law has a slope that is significantly different from those found in more face-on galaxy studies. The midplane gas pressure appears to roughly hold a power-law correlation with the midplane volume density ratio (${\rho}_{H2}/{\rho}_{HI}$).

This paper studies on the rudder shapes for the suppression of the cavitation around a horn-type rudder. To improve the problems due to cavitation, there have been several studies. However, these some studies are recognized as incomplete ways to suppress the rudder cavitation. In this study, the section shapes to suppress the cavitation phenomena are determined by moving the location of maximum thickness for reducing the curvature variation and changing the radius of leading edge. Also, in the pintle part, the curvature radius of the inlet outlet edge of rudder plate is changed. During the design of rudder shape, two-dimensional numerical simulations are firstly performed because those offer some advantages with that cavitation phenomena becomes predictable for a short time, and then the three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed to confirm the determination. The time mean distribution of the propeller slipstream is imposed on the inlet boundary condition. As some results, this paper shows the effects reducing the range of the occurrence of cavitation, and suggests the references on the design of a horn-type rudder for the suppression of cavitation phenomena.
