On the basis of the recently available data, we have analysed the kinematical properties of nearby dwarfs, which are grouped by their spectral types and derived their ages from the kinematical properties. The discontinuities in the kinematical properties are found around late F stars, which appear to be caused mainly by the fact that the spectral groups earlier than late F are rather homogencous in age while the later ones are mixed by two different age group.

Double side polishing process has been used for various industrial applications, such as polishing of semiconductor substrates and flat panel display glasses. In wafer manufacturing, double side polishing process is applied to improve wafer flatness and to minimize particle generation from wafers in device manufacturing processes, which is recognized as one of the most important processes. Whereas the kinematical modeling and analysis results of single side polishing, extensively used for chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) in device manufacturing, are well investigated, the studies in conjunction with double side polishing are barely carried out, due to the complication of polishing system and the uncertainty of wafer motion in the carrier. This paper suggests the derivation of kinematical model with consideration of carrier and wafer motion in double side polishing, and then presents the effect of kinematical parameters on material removal amount and its non-uniformity. The kinematical analysis results help to understand the double side polishing process and to control the polishing results.

The kinematic characteristics of cutting device significantly affects cutting performance in 2-dimensional elliptical vibration cutting(EVC) where the cutting tool cuts workpiece, traversing a micro-scale elliptical trajectory in a trochoidal motion. In this study, kinematical characteristics of EVC device constructed with two parallel stacked piezoelectric actuators were analytically modeled and compared with the experimental results. The EVC device was subjected to step and low-frequency(0.1 Hz) sinusoidal inputs to reveal only its kinematical displacement characteristics. Hysteresis in the motion of the device was observed in the thrust direction and distinctive skew of the major axis of the elliptical trajectory of the cutting tool was also noticed. Discrepancy in the voltage-to-displacement characteristics of the piezoelectric actuators was found to largely contribute to the skew of the major axis of the elliptical trajectory of the cutting tool. Analytical kinematical model predicted the cutting direction displacement within 10 % error in magnitude with no phase error, but in estimating the thrust direction displacement, it showed a $27^{\circ}$ of phase-lag compared with the measured displacement with no magnitude error.

This paper deals with the comparison of analysis methodologies by applying both Euler angle and quaternion to observe the kinematical behavior of the universal joint system used as an automotive drive-shaft. At first, conventional approaches are applied to predict a kinematical behavior by introducing only Euler angles into the universal joint system, but turns out to be lack in consistency and reliability of the analysis. Then to overcome this deficiency in numerical analysis a different methodology is proposed by using quaternion in this system. Its corresponding advantage is discussed in terms of kinetic energy, rotational velocity and rotational displacement. The application of quaternions in the numerical experiment is shown to be a more useful and valid way of establishing the ideal analytical model of the universal joint system.

In elliptical vibration cutting(EVC) where the cutting tool traces a micro-scale 2-dimensional elliptical trajectory, the kinematical and vibrational characteristics of the EVC device greatly affect cutting performance. In this study, kinematical and vibrational characteristics of an EVC device constructed with two orthogonally-arranged stacked piezoelectric actuators were investigated both analytically and experimentally. The step voltage was applied to the orthogonal EVC device and the associated displacements of the cutting tool were measured to assess kinematical characteristics of the orthogonal EVC device. To investigate the vibrational characteristic of the orthogonal EVC, sinusoidal voltage was applied to the EVC device and the resulting displacements were measured. It was found from experiments that coupling of displacements in the thrust and cutting directions and the tilt of the major axis of the elliptical trajectory exists. In addition, as the excitation frequency is in vicinity of resonant frequencies the distortion in the shape of the elliptical trajectory becomes greater and change in the rotation direction occurs. To correct the shape distortion of the elliptical trajectory, the shape correcting procedure developed for the parallel EVC device was applied for the orthogonal EVC device and it was shown that the shape correcting method successfully corrects distortion.

Topological and kinematical studies of the singular points found in flows around a surface-mounted cube in a channel are presented. Numerical simulation was carried out using high-resolution grid systems. Singular points(saddles and nodes) were found around the cube, which satisfy the topological rules suggested by Hunt et al. As the Reynolds number increases, the structure of vortices around the cube becomes complex and the number of singular points increases. Nevertheless, the rule governing the numbers of singular points is still valid. This confirms that our simulation is correct from topological and kinematical point of view, and enables one to infer complex flow patterns in our simulation.

The kinematical relationship of bevel gearsets lies at the root of the gear design. As the demand on precision bevel gears is increased in the related industries, the kinematic analysis of a pair of sperical involute bevel gears needs to be exactly evaluated for the computer aided design. Pitch cone angles of bevel gearsets have been calculated under the assumption that the geared system is equivalent to a coned roller system without slipping. But this kinematical model involves some errors in the value of the ratio of angular velocity. In this paper, the ratio of the angular velocity is exactly derived, based on the perfect involute tooth surface. Four nonlinear equations representing the kinematical relationships are numerically solved to obtain the pitch and base cone angles. The ratios of angular volocities according to pressure and shaft angles are calculated and compared with those of the approximate gear model.

The stability of the Carsington dam at Derbyshire in middle Eng1and is analysed using the Kinematical Element Method (Program LSDKSLOP). The thin yellow clay layer and the pore pressure at the failure surface, which goes through the core and boot, are considered. The influence of the pre-existing shears of the yellow clay on the stability of the Carsington dam is studied. Comparisons with the calculated and the observed failure surface are presented.
