This paper presents a new road generative system that employs a pad of preventive overspeed or tollgate. The system consists of pad, shaft, torsional damper, oneway-clutch, gear system, and electricity generator components. When the car driven through the road generation system, it occurred to surplus energy in the DC power. In order to maximize the power of electricity energy harvester, the simulation software is developed. It is used to determine parametric dimension for optimal design with the theoretically calculated results from the simulation software. The transient responses at the conditions of low and high vehicle speed are compared with the calculated results as torque, impact force, power, out energy etc. Consequently, before design a road generation system, the analysis of simulation results shows that the proposed concept and system has efficiency and confidence.

Cylinder block is driven by tapered piston for bent-axis type piston pump, so that geometrical mechanism is very complicate. Piston rod must have not separated from shaft when shaft and piston rod is assembled. For this reason, shaft design is changed. Finite element analysis is performed for analyzed structural stability and flexible dynamic behavior. The result of the analysis, maximum equivalent stress occurred under yield stress, therefore structural stability is satisfactory. and flexible dynamic analysis give useful information about driving gear. These background data is avail of manufacture of piston pump.

A new version of moving actuator electromechanical total artificial heart was designed to improve total efficiency, durability, and fitting inside thoracic cavity. As compared with our present type of the rolling cylinder actuator, this new model has a pendulum-type actuator with reciprocating motion around the fixed circular path, connected through the gear mechanisms to the motor. By using this mechanism, the efficiency and durability could be improved by replacing sliding mechanism with rolling contact elements. Also, the height of the pump could be decreased from 9cm to 7cm with static stroke volume 65cc. With these improvements, we have implanted this new pump in human size animal (less than 70Kg weight).

In this study, an OTM(on-the-move) antenna which is mounted on ground vehicles and is used for mobile communication between vehicle and satellite while moving was addressed. Since LOS(line-of-sight) of antenna should direct satellite consistently while vehicle moving to guarantee high satellite communication quality, active antenna LOS stabilization is a core technology for OTM antenna. Stabilization of a satellite tracking antenna which consists of 2-DOF gimbals, an elevation gimbal over an azimuth gimbal, was considered in this study. In consideration of driving mechanism which consists of gear train and flexible driving shafts, a two-mass-system dynamic model coupled with vehicle motion was presented. An internal PI-control loop + outer PI-control loop structure has been suggested in order to damp the torsional vibration and stabilize control system. The classical pole-placement method was applied to design control gains. In addition, a vehicle motion compensation control beside of the feedback control loop has been suggested to improve LOS stabilization performances. The feasibility of the proposed control design was verified along with some experimental results.

In this paper, a new multi-fingered robot hand using ultrasonic motors and its control system are developed. The developed robot hand has four fingers and fifteen articulated joints. The distal joint of each finger is directly driven by ultrasonic motor and all joints except the distal joint has low transmission gear mechanism with the motor. The developed robot hand has several advantages in size compared to a hand using conventional DC motors, and in performance compared to a hand using tendons to drive joints. A VME-bus based hand control system and ultrasonic motor driver are also developed. The performance of the hand is confirmed by using the developed control system in real-time.
