The influence of spindle immersion depth on the determination of glass melt viscosity was examined in rotating cylinder method. The exact adjustment of spindle immersion depth into soda lime silicate standard glass melts could be peformed by self-constructed electric system. The results showed a slight dependence of viscosity value on the immersion depth change of spindle shaft. The viscosity error per unit length of spindle was 0.4%/mm under the present cylinder dimension.

In this paper, we propose a new gel-type biomimetic variable-focus lens system. The miniaturization of conventional lens system is limited due to the use of a set of glass lenses for adjusting the focal length. Biologically inspired by the focus adjustment mechanism of the human eye, a gel-type single lens system with variable-focus is presented. The proposed system consists of a gel-type lens, mechanical parts such as body, rotation ring, and winding-type SMA actuator. In addition, the proposed system is designed to operate with a simple and miniaturized mechanical structure using a new attachment and driving mechanism. The focusing performance of the proposed system is verified through a series of experiments and measurements of the shape of the lens using tomography.

23 cap beams on the 1 Km length jetty bridge in Shin-da power plant (Taipower co., Taiwan) utilize far-end telecontrol cathodic protection technology which is the first case ever used in Taiwan. The system comprises cathodic protection system and te1econtrol monitoring system. The control and monitoring such as protection current adjustment, protection potential and depolarization measurement of the 23 cap beams can be adjusted through system telecontrol operations. Thereby allows monitoring and control of the 23 anode zones in a convenient and cost effective way. This system is at present still in its best running condition since Sept. 1997 when it was completed. All the 23 cap beams can achieve the 100 mV depolarization potential criteria of protection. It meet the specifications of reinforced concrete cathodic protection standard and proved to be very excellent.

In the future, most military activities will be replaced by robots. Because of many dangerous factors in battlefield, reconnaissance should be performed by robot. Reconnaissance robot should be small for not being detected, be light and simple structure for personal portability and overcome unexpected rough terrain for mission completion. In case of small and light robot, it can't get enough friction force for movement. Therefore small reconnaissance robot need jumping function for movement. In this paper we proposed a biologically inspired jumping mechanism. And we adjusted moment and jumping angle by using four bar linkage, especially varying coupler length.

High speed machining experiment on the inclined surfaces of hardened mold steel(STAVAX at hardness HRC 53) is carried out using the long-neck type ball endmill. Surface texture and roughness are compared fur various cutting conditions. Tool overhang length greatly affects the roughness of machined surface. It is found that, fur this type of long-neck endmill, the chip load should be carefully selected by reducing either the axial depth of cut or feedrate to avoid tool vibration. Feedrate adjustment is more appropriate method in terms of tool wear.

무선랜과 스마트폰이 활성화됨에 따라 IP 지역 방송 기술이 개발되고 있으며, 무선방송 채널 환경에서 오류발생시의 해결방법이 필요하다. 푸시 방송의 특성상 방송서버와 수신기가 일대일로 접속되는 것은 불가하며, 방송 채널 환경의 상태에 따라 방송 데이터 프레임의 길이 조정과 동일한 프레임을 여러 번 전송하는 횟수, 제한적인 재전송 요구 방법을 적용하여 방송 효율을 극대화시키는 기술이 본 논문에서 제안되었다.

In housing units constructed recently in Korea, the length of ondol coil is different in each room, so the flow rate of hot water is adjusted by setting valve opening. If the flow rate is not appropriate for heating load, the room temperature seriously deviates from the set temperature range for comfort. In particular, too small valve opening can induce a noise by cavitation. In order to adjust the valve opening, two methods by zone area and a new method by return temperature rise were modelled and simulated using TRNSYS and EES. As a result, heating energy consumption during one week was the same on three methods, but the room temperature of the new method minimally deviated from the range of set temperature with a low possibility of noise.

In this paper, four apodization functions are proposed for silicon-on-insulator (SOI) strip waveguides with sidewall-corrugated gratings. The effects of apodization functions on the full width at half maximum (FWHM), the side-lobe level, and the reflectivity of the reflection spectrum are studied using the coupled-mode theory (CMT) and the transfer-matrix method (TMM). The results show that applying proposed apodization functions creates very good filtering characteristics. Among investigated apodized waveguides, the apodization functions of Polynomial and z-power have the best performance in reducing side-lobes, where the side-lobe oscillations are entirely removed. Four functions are also used for precise adjustment of the bandwidth. Simulation results show that the minimum and maximum values of the FWHM are 0.74 nm and 8.48 nm respectively. In some investigated functions, changing the apodization parameters decreases the reflectivity which is compensated by increasing the grating length.

Fault-tolerance is an important design criterion for robotic systems operating in hazardous or remote environments. This paper addresses the issue of tolerating a locked joint failure in gait planning for hexapod walking machines which have symmetric structures and legs in the form of an articulated arm with three revolute joints. A locked joint failure is one for which a joint cannot move and is locked in place. If a failed joint is locked, the workspace of the resulting leg is constrained, but hexapod walking machines have the ability to continue static walking. A strategy of fault-tolerant tripod gait is proposed and, as a specific form, a periodic tripod gait is presented in which hexapod walking machines have the maximum stride length after a locked failure. The adjustment procedure from a normal gait to the proposed fault-tolerant gait is shown to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed scheme.

This paper describes the design and manufacturing of a focused-ion-beam machining system which can make small features of nano size. We use a SIMION simulator in order to obtain the design data of an ion column. The simulation result shows that the focal length of ion beam decreases as the applied voltage of object lens increases. Finally, we obtained the good images of a mesh of 50 micrometers by using the adjustment of applied voltage, acceleration power, and dimension of each elements.
