The fringe-field switching (FFS) mode was known to exhibit both a wide viewing angle and high transmittance, especially when using the liquid crystal (LC) with negative dielectric anisotropy. In the device, the LC director rotates almost in-plane. However, in the bright state the device shows bluish and yellowish color along parallel and perpendicular to the LC director at off-normal directions since the LC director rotates only in one direction. Such a problem was greatly improved using a wedge shape of only pixel electrodes. In this way two different field directions exist in a pixel, enabling the LC director to rotate in two opposite directions. Consequently, owing to dual domain effect when using the LC with negative dielectric anisotropy, the viewing angle characteristics are greatly improved.

In the present paper, fowler flap was optimized to maximize the lift with response surface method. Leading edge shape and the gap between main airfoil and flap, were optimized and the aerodynamic characteristics was improved considerably. The optimized flap has more rounded leading edge and bigger gap. Before angle of attack, $10^{\circ}$, lift and drag are improved and the optimized flap shows similar aerodynamic characteristics to the original flap. The flow condition for optimization was angle of attack, $10^{\circ}$, Mach number, 0.2, flap deflection, $40^{\circ}$.

The present simulation focuses on the effect of the shape of capillary tube-suction line heat exchangers(SLHX), The results in the three cases of the SLHX types show that both of the location and length of heat exchange section influence the coefficient of performance(COP) and cooling capacity. Simulation shows the COP may be improved by 4.6% and the cooling capacity may be improved by 13.6% in the Lateral type.

Temperature and velocity distributions of hot air flows in rotational molding machines with two different shapes and structures of oven and inlet were investigated by using FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics code. The shape and structure of oven and inlet in current rotational molding machine were improved. Two different sizes of mold inside each oven were considered in the analysis. Temperature and velocity distributions of hot air flows in two different rotational molding machines were compared to each other. In order to reduce cycle time and improve product quality in current rotational molding machine, the improved shape and structure of oven and inlet were proposed.

Numerical simulations were conducted on the gerotor type oil pump. Three oil pump models having different port and groove shape were considered. Firstly, two original models (baseline & variant.1 model) were simulated in order to validate the accuracy of the simulation results and to better understand the flow characteristics in the pump. It was found that the cavitation phenomenon as well as the teeth tip leakage is most important parameter on the pump performance. Based on the simulation results of the original models, final model (variant.2 model) which has improved port shape and pressure relief valve is suggested to enhance pump performance and to reduce driving torque. The volumetric efficiency and the hydraulic torque of the Variant.2 model is improved 4% and reduced 6.1% each at 2000RPM in experiment.

The levitation magnets for the UTM-01(Urban Transit Maglev) take up a substential portion of the vehicle weight and vehicle cost. It is thus very important to reduce the weight of magnets by improving their performance and also reduce the cost of making them. A very extensive study was conducted to achieve above goals. Shape of the magnet core was varied and various core materials were tested. Also tested was the anodized sheet coil to replace the currently used rectangular shape Al coil. The study so far has improved the performance of the magnet substantially. The levitation force-to-magnet weight ratio has been improved from 6.8 to 9.2 as a result. This improvement reduced to magnet weight of the UTM-01 test vehicle by 900 kg.

This paper deals with analytical methods for low frequency and high frequency brake squeal noise on brake-rear caliper. In order to improve low frequency and high frequency squeal noise, we take survey caliper bracket shape parameters and housing shape parameters. Besides, using the combination of bracket and housing parameter were surveyed. Thus, using the combination of bracket Alt_05 and housing Alt_45 specifications, instability analysis and brake dynamo test were carried out. Based upon the two models, low and high frequency squeal noise of base model were improved. But, for 6.0 kHz frequency noise, which is not improved, it needs to additionally study on instability analysis and combination of the other brake components.

Hydroforming has attracted a great deal of attention in the manufacturing industries for vehicles and transportation systems. Hydroforming technology contributes to weight reduction, increased strength, improved quality and reduced tooling cost. Hydroformed automotive parts used as structure components in vehichle body frame often have to be structurally joined at some point. Therefore it is useful if the hydroformed automotive parts can be given a localized attachment flange. For a given flange shape, a parting plane for the dies is established relative to which the various surfaces of the flange shape, in cross section, have no significant reverse curvature. In this study, hydroforming process for flange forming was proposed. FE analysis to form flanged circular shape and flanged rectangular shape was preformed with Dynaform 5.5. To accomplish successful hydroforming process design, thorough investigation on proper combination of process parameters such as tool geometry and hydraulic pressure has been performed and optimized. The results show that flanged automotive parts can be successfully produced with tube hydroforming.

Welding is one of the most important and popular joining techniques employed in structures. In spite of, weld designs depend on the rules and regulations. Moreover, the study to optimize a shape of welding joint not may be sufficient and systematic on the theoretical and experimental sides. Therefore, in this study, a computer program based on thermal elasto plastic theory is developed for optimizing(minimizing) shape of weld joints. By the results, study is made on the characteristics of the distributions of welding residual stresses and plastic strains, and their production mechanisms. Also, Various kinds of tests are carried out to find out mechanical characteristics due to shape of weld joints. As a result of this optimization(minimization) of weld joints, the productivity and the reliability will be improved.
