It is well-known that the redundancy can be exploited to avoid the singular regions of the redundant manipulators by increasing the manipulability. The method, however, requires excessive energy and gives rather large tracking errors since the manipulability is increased rapidly so that the manipulator avoids the singular region quickly. In this paper, a new method is proposed in which the increasing speed of the manipulability is confined to a certain bound. Therefore, in the proposed method, the movement energy and the tracking errors are reduced. The computer simulation studies are performed to show the validity of the method.

Track jump control is a random access strategy for short distance movement. The most common track jump scheme is a bang-bang control of a kick and brake manner. In a conventional track jump scheme, a track-following compensator is turned off during kick and brake periods, and restarted at a target track for track pull-in. The inevitable controller switching with non-zero initial condition results in undesirable transient response, and excessive overshoot in the transient response causes track pull-in failure. In this paper, a new track jump scheme is proposed for enhancing track jump stability. Instead of control switching, internal states of a track-following controller are artificially manipulated for kick and brake actions in a digital control environment. Experimental results are provided in comparison with conventional track jumps.

Failure of connecting rod in automotive engine may cause catastrophic situation. The corner radius at small end has an effect on stress raising. To investigate the stress distribution in connecting rod during operation, the finite element analysis was used by giving possible maximum tension and compression. Excessive sizing after forging connecting rod may result in the tensile residual stress which lower the fatigue life and cause premature failures. It was shown that when the sizing amount is too large, the location of high tensile residual stress coincide with that of high stress amplitude during operation through the elastic-plastic finite element analysis. The endurance limit moves down due to the surface finish and decarburization, which combines with the movement of resultant stress points to dangerous range. It was concluded that the precise control of sizing and enough corner radius are necessary to a reliability of connecting rod.

Synchronizing errors between the spindle motor and the z-axis motor directly influences the cutting characteristics and the thread quality in tapping, because the tapping process is accomplished by synchronizing the movement of the z-axis with the revolutionary spindle motion. Generally synchronizing errors are decided by tile parameters of the servo system and commanded velocity. The excessive synchronizing errors which are induced by the parameter mismatch and high cutting velocity can cause tap breakage due to the abrupt increase of cutting torque or damage the thread accuracy by overcutting the already cut threads. In this paper, the influences of the synchronizing errors on the tapping characteristics in the ultra high-speed tapping will be described and a minimum level of synchronizing errors necessary to maintain the quality of the cut thread will be presented.

Computer simulations and test trials are carried out to get the optimal conditions about the stamping die design of the tailor laser welded automotive door inner. Firstly, the stamping process including gravity deflection, bead calibration, binder wrap, forming and spring back, are analyzed by the computer simulation. The results of simulation shows good correspondance with those of test trial under the same conditions. The variables of parametric study which will be investigated in the simulation and test trials, are determined form the results of the first run. The formability under the various conditions is evaluated, which are the initial postion of blank, blank holding force, corner radius and the shape of drawbead. Finally, well controled sound product without fracture, wrinkling and excessive weldline movement is obtained.

In recent years, Natm has been successfully applied to difficult ground conditions with the use of soil-perservention methods which promote face stability and restrict excessive ground movement. When the tunnle excavation od made through difficult ground like highly weathered rock, the umbrella arch method is often adopted which pre-reinforceas tunnel crown periphery using a stiff shell-shaped structure. The umbrella arch method was originally developed in Itali, and has recently been confirmed its effectiveness in Korea as well. However, no in depth study on the umbrella arch method has been conducted ans as a result no rational analysis/design method is available at present. Therefore this study was undertaken with the aim of identifying the basic reinforcing mechanism and satablishing both qualitative and quantiative relationships between various design parameters and ground movements.

Sleep changes substantially with age. There is a phase advance in the circadian sleep cycle and increased waking after sleep onset. The elderly people wake more frequently during the night and experience fragmented sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness. The prevalence of sleep disorders increases with age, and the composition of sleep disorders in the elderly differs from that in the young. The most frequently encountered sleep disorders are psychophysiologic insomnia, sleep disturbance due to dementia, sleeprelated respiratory disorder, restless legs syndrome and periodic limb movement disorder, and REM sleep behavior disorder. To treat the elderly sleep problem appropriately, it is important to know how sleep pattern changes as we age and to understand the cause of sleep-related symptoms. This article will review the sleep physiology and common sleep disorders in the elderly.

The effects of the variation of proedd varibles on the flow patterns and effects of the flow patterns on the deposition rate and uniformity in the Si-epitaxy CVD with SiH4 as the source of Si were studied through the calculation by use of control volume method. The reslts showed that the natural convection was undesirable to the uniformity of deposition rate, whose effects were decreased with the dercrese with the decrese of the pressure in the reactoor and with the increase of the flow rate. However. the excessive increase of flow rate caused the movement of the unreacted gas to the substrate. Therefore it resulted in the non-uniform depositions. The rotation of substrate was apperared to improve the uniformity. The resulte of this study could used in CVD process to design the reator and to find the optimum conditions of the process variables.

균열 및 안치공법은 노후화된 콘크리트 슬래브의 줄눈 및 균열부의 과도한 움직임으로 인하여 아스팔트 덧씌우기층에 발생되는 반사균열을 억제하기 위해 기존의 노후화된 콘크리트 포장에 적정 간격의 불연속면을 형성시켜서 각각의 불연속면에서의 움직임을 작게 유지하는 공법으로 미국 등에서는 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 LTPP Data를 이용하여 균열 및 안치 공법 적용 후 IRI과 포장 파손 추이를 분석하여 공법 사용에 의한 공용성 변화에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to measure changes in spine inclination and thoracolumbar structure and morphology according to upper-extremity movements with and without resistance in order to evaluate the spine stability in workers. METHODS: Forty-eight middle-aged male workers (mean age, 40.48 ± 6.27 years) participated in this study. Using the spine analysis system, changes in the inclination of the spine and structure as well as shape of the thoracolumbar spine were measured. For posture measurement, the postures of standing, lifting the right and left arms (shoulder joint 90° flexion), and lifting with both arms were measured in random order. In addition, variables were measured using a resistance of 3 kg for each posture. The statistical significance level was set at α = .05 for all variables. RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences between the front and back inclinations of the spine, kyphotic curve of the thoracic spine, lordotic curve of the lumbar spine, rotation changes in the thoracolumbar spine, and rotation changes in the T4 vertebra (p < .05). However, there was no significant difference in the left and right tilts of the spine. In the post-hoc analysis, rotation changes in the T4 vertebra showed a significant difference in posture when resistance was applied to the left and right sides CONCLUSION: Causes of musculoskeletal diseases include excessive thoracic spine rotation, torsion, and hyperlordosis of the lumbar spine. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the working environment in order to ensure a healthy posture and prevent musculoskeletal diseases that can reduce the ability to carry various and/or excessive loads.
