  • Recently, conventional hydraulic car lift systems face the technological limitations due to a lack of height control. The demand for height controllability is required in many tasks such as wheel alignment, and requires compensation for the structural deformation of the lift caused by irregular load distribution. In order to resolve this limitation of the conventional car lift, in this work, a new type of a hydraulic vehicle lift using a magneto-rheological (MR) valve system is proposed and analyzed. Firstly, the dynamic model of vehicle lift is formulated to evaluate control performance; subsequently, an MR valve is designed to obtain the desired pressure drop required in the car lift. Next, a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is formulated to achieve accurate control of the lifting height and then computer simulations are undertaken to show accurate height control performances of the proposed new car lift system.

  • This paper describes a contact atomic force microscope (AFM) that can be used for high-speed precision measurements of microstructured surfaces. The AFM is composed of an air-bearing X stage, an air-bearing spindle with the axis of rotation in the Z direction, and an AFM probe unit. The traversing distance and maximum speed of the X stage are 300 mm and 400 mm/s, respectively. The spindle has the ability to hold a sample in a vacuum chuck with a maximum diameter of 130 mm and has a maximum rotation speed of 300 rpm. The bandwidth of the AFM probe unit in an open loop control circuit is more than 40 kHz. To achieve precision measurements of microstructured surfaces with slopes, a scanning strategy combining constant height measurements with a slope compensation technique is proposed. In this scanning strategy, the Z direction PZT actuator of the AFM probe unit is employed to compensate for the slope of the sample surface while the microstructures are scanned by the AFM probe at a constant height. The precision of such a scanning strategy is demonstrated by obtaining profile measurements of a microstructure surface at a series of scanning speeds ranging from 0.1 to 20.0 mm/s.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the tribological characteristics of the Electronic control suspension System in a car. In the first example, the cilp used to attach the front electronic control suspension(ECS) system's control actuator was fastened very tightly. Thus, the wire was cut because of continual rotation of the shock-up shover piston rod used to adjust the height of the car. This verified the disconnection phenomenon where wire damaged makes it impossible for the ECS system to send signal to the actuator. The second example, involved a minute hole that allowed gas to leak from the ECS system. As a result, the height of the car verified the down phenomenon. In the third example, the resistance of a wire measured at $0.21{\Omega}$, when the G sensor was disconnected from the system. This verified the system shutdown and lighting of the ECS warning lamp because of body interference caused by a slight pressure on the battery cover. Therefore, quality control is always necessary to ensure safety and durability of a car.

  • In this paper, a study was conducted on the power amplifier control required to design an eLoran transmitter system using a low-height antenna. The eLoran transmitter developed during the eLoran technology development project conducted in Korea used a small 35 m antenna due to the difficulty of securing a site for antenna installation. This antenna height is very low compared to the height of 750 m which is required for eLoran 100 kHz signal transmission without any radiation loss. In the case of using such a small antenna, not only the radiation efficiency of the transmission is lowered, but also the power module control must be performed more precisely in order to transmit the eLoran standard signal. The equivalent RLC circuit of the transmitter system was implemented and transient analysis was conducted to derive the input required voltage for satisfying the output requirement. The voltage waveform was also generated by the RLC circuit analysis to generate the eLoran signal. Furthermore, we suggest power width modulation method to control eLoran power amplifier module more sophisticatedly.

  • The purpose of this study was to assess the effect on mandibular growth of botulinum toxin type A (BTXA) injection into the unilateral massester muscle of growing rats at three different growing stages. Thirty six male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups according to the age (group 1: 4 week-old, group 2: 5week-old, group 3: 6week-old). Then each group was randomly divided into 3 subgroups (control group, unilateral injection group, bilateral injection group). Experimental animals were sacrificed after 4 weeks. Then the jaw measurements were evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. In the group 1, mandibular body length, condylar height and coronoid process height of the unilateral group(BTXA side) and the bilateral group were shorter than those of the control group (p<0.05). 2. In the group 2, anterior region height, condylar height, coronoid process height of the unilateral group(BTXA side) and the bilateral group were shorter than those of the control group (p<0.05). 3. In the group 3, mandibular body length, condylar height, coronoid process height of the unilateral group(BTXA side) and the bilateral group were shorter than those of the control group (p<0.05). 4. There was no significant difference in mandibular measurements between the control side and the injection side in the unilateral group in all age groups (p>0.05).

  • Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of insole height change in the lumbosacral angle and physical functions in healthy males. Background: In order to release male's dissatisfaction with his height and to increase satisfaction with his body, using insole is generalized. There have been researches on female's body change in accordance with function of insole and heel height, whereas there are few researches on males. Method: Participants were divided into three groups. A control group had 10 participants who wore 0cm insole. Experimental group I had 10 participants who wore 2cm insole. Experimental group II had 10 participants who wore 4cm insole. All participants wore insoles during their daily lives for a trial period of 8 weeks. The results were evaluated before and after comparison, and we measured lumbosacral angle, balance (dynamic balance, agility, quickness) and lumbar pain (LBP). Results: This study showed that insole height affected lumbosacral angle and dynamic balance and pain. In particular, there were significant differences in the 4cm group among the three groups (p<.05). The 2cm group did show a significant difference in lumbosacral angle and pain (p<.05). Furthermore, no significant difference was observed within the control group. Conclusion: The 4cm insole height suggests that the increase of lumbosacral angle contributes to some changes in LBP, balance, pain and physical functions, probably leading to negative effects on variety of activities of daily life. Application: The results of wearing insoles with proper height will help to prevent musculoskeletal disorders.

  • Wheat is one of the most widely grown food crops worldwide. Extreme precipitation and wind disturbances increased due to the abnormal climate, which resulted in increased lodging. Introduction of dwarf genes in wheat significantly increased lodging resistance and productivity in wheat breeding. In this study, we performed the genotyping of dwarfing genes between 'Keumkang' and 'Komac 5' ('Keumkang' mutant). In addition, we investigated the relationship between plant height and several phenotypic characters using F2 segregation populations derived from crosses between the two varieties. There was no significant difference in phenotypic characters between the two varieties except for plant height. In the genotyping analysis using dwarfing genes, mutations of two dwarfing gene were found to be induced between the two varieties. The four genotypes of the F2 populations from a crossing between 'Keumkang' and 'Komac 5' were used to compare and evaluate the effects of two dwarfing genes. Plants with two single mutant dwarfing gene and double mutant dwarfing gene revealed reduced plant heights than control plants by 4.5%, 6.9%, and 33.2%, respectively. The phenotype analysis showed that double mutant dwarfing gene affected wheat stem growth as the length decreases from the second node, resulting in decreased plant height. However, there were no significant differences in the agronomic traits between mutant plants and control plant. These results may provide novel information about the effect of double mutant dwarfing gene on plant height, and may help improve lodging tolerance and wheat yield.

  • An automated storage and retrieval machinery for high rack warehouse systems is developed in order to stack the various kinds of productions. However, according to increase in the rack height, the long lead time should be taken. In stacker crane systems, the variations of the lifting height and the load generate the vibration of lifting machine, and it makes a Position control to be difficult Therefore, the reduction of vibration will be important factor for saving the lead time and the damage of Productions. This paper deals with a position control of stacker crane in automated high rack warehouse system by using a gain-scheduled control algorithm via a LMI method, where the variations of elastic coefficient of the stacker crane's post are considered.
