This study aims to analyze the structural safety by comparing deformation and equivalent stress of door with a stiffener or no stiffener when the door crashes against something in case of overturn. Three types are classified on the basis of the no stiffener model in the vehicle door. One is the type which has a stiffener. Another is the type which has no stiffener and the other is the type which has a hole in the stiffener. These three types are compared with each other by analyzing. This side door of vehicle is the automotive part about the kind of vehicle as Mercedes Benz E-Klasse scaled down as 1/18 times as the real size. The study model of vehicle door is modelled by CATIA program and it is analyzed by ANSYS.

The cutting performance of a machine depends on the ability of the design of the acoustic horn to facilitate an increase in tool-tip vibration, allowing a significant amount of material to be removed. In this paper, three kinds of acoustic horns were designed and FEM was used to estimate displacement magnifications of horn tips. An optimization procedure for the profile has been followed to obtain maximum magnification, for higher rate of material removal and safe working stresses for the horn material.

Dental high-speed air turbine handpieces have been used as a dental cutting tool in clinical dentistry for over 50 years, yet little study has been reported on their flow and performance analysis. Therefore it is necessary to investigate turbine for the performance improvements of an air turbine handpiece. This paper presents pressure on turbine rotor and flow analysis in air turbine handpiece using CFD (computational fluid dynamics). Characteristics on each flow and pressure for four various reflection angles of turbine rotor are presented, and then performance change is analyzed about air turbine handpieces by CFD results.

In order to reduce the lead-time and cost, many useful methods have been applied to Rapid Prototyping (RP) in recent years. But cutting process is still considered as one of the effective RP methods that have been developed and currently available in the industry. It also owen practical advantages such as precision and versatility. However, traditional 3 axis NC machining has some inherent limitations such as the restriction of tool accessibility and the complex setup. In this work, a new rapid prototyping system with high speed 5 axis machining has been developed to overcome those limitations. The architecture of developed system is described in detail and the successful application examples are presented.

End-milling have been used widely in industrial system because it is effective to a material manufacturing with various shape. Recently the end-milling processing is needed the high-precise technique with good surface roughness and rapid time in precision machine part and electronic part. The optimum surface roughness has an effect on end-milling condition such as, cutting direction spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut, etc. Therefore this study was carried out to presume for mutual relation of end-milling condition to get the optimum surface roughness by regression analysis. The results shown that coefficient of determination($\textrm{R}^2$) of regression equation has a fine reliability of 87.5% and regression equation of surface rough is made by regression analysis.

We studied the heating characteristics of a whirling spindle. This spindle is an important component of a whirling machine for turning a ball screw shaft. In the manufacturing process for a conventional ball screw shaft, a single tool is used to form a spiral in a lathe machine tool. Thereafter, a high-frequency heat treatment process is performed. Recently, a whirling-type cutting method has emerged. This method can perform hard turning in the rotating direction of the spiral portion of the ball screw shaft by rotating and mounting multiple tools. The whirling method can be applied to the heat-treated material. In this study, an experimental apparatus was constructed to analyze the whirling spindle. The experiment proceeded in four steps. The rotating speed of the whirling spindle was set to ISO random and sequential rising conditions. Cooling and non-cooling modes in the cooling jacket were tested. As a result of the above experiment, the heating characteristics of the whirling spindle were derived.

In a conventional magnetic abrasive polishing process, the polishing abrasives are mixed with ferrous particles and slight cutting oil to form a cluster of abrasives. However, when a tool rotates at a high revolution speed, most of the polishing abrasives are scattered away from it due to the increase in centrifugal force. This phenomenon directly reduces the polishing efficiency. The use of a highly viscous matter such as silicone gel instead of cutting oil for mixing is one method to solve this problem and increase abrasive adhesion. Another method to avoid high abrasive scattering is the application of wet magnetic abrasive polishing (WMAP). In WMAP, abundant mineral oil is preliminarily applied to the workpiece surface. This study experimentally evaluated the effect of WMAP on abrasive adhesion. The relationship between the amount of working abrasives and polishing conditions was characterized. Despite the lower adhesion ratio of polishing abrasives, the surface roughness was found to be significantly improved as the result of WMAP.

High-speed air turbine handpieces have been used as a dental cutting tool in clinical dentistry for over 50 years, but little study has been reported on their performance analysis. Therefore, the effect of turbine blade shape on performance characteristics of dental air turbine handpiece were studied using CFD in this paper. Computations have been performed for five different positions of turbine blade by using frozen rotor method that is one of steady-state method. The characteristics of turbine blade for shapes and reflection angles were analyzed. As a result of the computation, torque is increased by increasing the reflection angle of turbine blade.

The head frame structure of a machine tool for aircraft parts, which requires machining precision and machining of difficult-to-cut materials is required to be light-weighted for precision high-speed machining and to minimize possible deformation by cutting force. To achieve high stiffness and for light-weight structure optimization design, a preliminary model was designed based on finite element analysis. The topology optimization design of light-weight, high stiffness, and low vibration frame structure were performed by minimizing compliance. As a result, the frame weight decreased by 17.3%, the maximum deflection was less than 0.007 mm, and the natural frequency increased by 30.6%. The static stiffness was increased in each axis direction and the dynamic stiffness exhibited contrary results according to the axis. Optimized structure with the high stiffness of low vibration in topology optimization design was confirmed.

An aspherical lens, which resolves several problems with a spherical lens,typically serves asa key part of an optical system. Generally, an aspherical lens is fabricated using a diamond turning machine or by mean of injection molding. However, residual stress and/or tool marks can arise when using a commercial fabricating method such as DTM or injection molding. A polishing process, thus, is commonly used to obtain a high-precision aspherical lens. In this study, a polishing method using MR fluid was applied to minimize several problems, in this case residual stress and the creation of tool marks, during the cutting process. The MR polishing system was developed to polish aspherical lenses. A series of experiments were performed to obtain a very fine surface roughness. PMMA (the lens material for molding) was used as a workpiece, and the gap size, magnetic field intensity, wheel speed and feed rate were selected as the parameters in this study. Finally, a very fine surface roughness of Ra=2.12nm was obtained after MR polishing.
