Nonlinear sliding surface design in variable structure systems for spacecraft attitude control problems is studied. A robustness analysis is performed for regular form of system, and calculation of actuator bandwidth is presented by reviewing sliding surface dynamics. To achieve non-singular attitude description and minimal parameterization, spacecraft attitude control problems are considered based on modified Rodrigues parameters (MRP). It is shown that the derived controller ensures the sliding motion in pre-determined region irrespective of unmodeled effects and disturbances.

As the environmental regulations become stricter, new machining technologies are being developed which takes envi ronmenta 1 aspects into account . Since cut t ing oi I has some impact on environment. many researches are being carried out to minimize the use of cutting oi I. The methods for minimizing cutting oil usage includes the following techniques: I ) Cooling of tools and work piece. 2) Useage of compressed cooling air for the removal of chip. 3) Minimal useage of environment-friendly vegetable cutt:ngoiI for lubrication between chip and tools. Since the turning machine is continuous, tools are under constant thermal load and tool wear increases as the lubricative performance degrades. Also surface roughnesses have a direct influence on turning. In order to examine the characteristics of turningmachining, this work investigates experimentally the degree of tool wear and characteristics of surface roughness in relation to machining conditions, supply methods, and cooling methods.

We show that the Liechti-Strenner's example for the closed nonorientable surface in [13] minimizes the dilatation within the class of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms with an orientable invariant foliation and all but the first coefficient of the characteristic polynomial of the action induced on the first cohomology nonpositive. We also show that the Liechti-Strenner's example of orientation-reversing homeomorphism for the closed orientable surface in [13] minimizes the dilatation within the class of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms with an orientable invariant foliation and all but the first coefficient of the characteristic polynomial p(x) of the action induced on the first cohomology nonpositive or all but the first coefficient of p(x)(x ± 1)², p(x)(x² ± 1), or p(x)(x² ± x + 1) nonpositive.

This paper proposes a graph matching algorithm based on simulated annealing, which assures the globally optimal solution for circuit partitioning for the placement in the rectilinear region occurring as a result of the pre-placement of some macro cells, or onto the nonplanar surface in some military or space applications. The circuit graph ($G_{C}$) denoting the circuit topology is formed by a hierarchical bottom-up clustering of cells, while another graph called region graph ($G_{R}$) represents the geometry of a planar rectilinear region or a nonplanar surface for circuit placement. Finding the optimal many-to-one vertex mapping function from $G_{C}$ to $G_{R}$, such that the total mismatch cost between two graphs is minimal, is a combinatorial optimization problem which was solved in this work for various examples using simulated annealing.

Machining processes produce high accurate metallic parts in metal working industries. Lubrication for machining enhances quality of machined surface and it prolongs the life of cutting tools. Since lubricant is poisonous to human body and environment, it causes occupational diseases for workers and air pollution in environment. Because of these problems generated, developed countries do not permit the excessive usage of lubricant in machining shops. This research focuses on the development of MQL machining technique that consumes minimal amount of lubricant, which reduces possible outbreak of occupational diseases and air pollution. This research sets experimental equipments for MQL machining. Experiments for this study are designed with major machining parameters in MQL. Through the analysis of experiments, this paper presents the optimal machining parameters.

Construction of the stable monolayer of endothelial cells onto physicochemically modified polymeric surFace is one of the appropriate method to develop the small caliber vascular graft with the long-term patency. In this study, we constructed the monolayer of endothelial cells on the fibronectin rind the extracellular matrix-coated polyurethane surface derived from human fibroblast cells. To elucidate the adhesion strength of endothelial cells on the extracellular matrix-coated polyurethane, a laminar flow chamber apparatus was developed to exposure the shear stress on the apical membrane of ondothelial cells. Endothelial cells show the strongest adhesion after two days of seeding onto the fibronectin-coated polyurethane surface, whereas endothelial cells on the extracellular matrix derived from the human flbroblast cells show the minimal doubling time of cellular growth.

Laser Powder Deposition (LPD) is a technology capable of modifying a metallic structure by adding the appropriate material to perform a desired function. LPD offers a unique fabrication technique that allows the use of soft (tough) materials as base structures. Through LPD a hard material can be applied to the base material with little thermal input (minimal dilution and heat-affected-zone {HAZ}), thus providing the function of a heat treatment or other surface modifications. These surface modifications have been evaluated through standard wear testing (ASTM G-65), surface hardness (Rc), micro-hardness (vickers), and optical microscopy.

3D Welding and Milling is a solid freeform fabrication process which is based on the combination of welding as additive and conventional milling as subtractive technique. This hybrid approach enables direct building of metallic parts with high accuracy and surface finish. Although it needs further improvements it shows an application potential in rapid tooling of injection mold inserts as the investigation results show. To optimize the process for higher surface quality and accuracy effectively Taguchi method is applied to the experimental investigation. in this way relationships between process parameters and final product qualities such as tensile strength and surface hardness are found with minimal efforts.

The paper introduces a set of new ruled surfaces such that the base curve is taken to be the striction curve of N, C and W ruled surfaces from the alternative frame, and the generating line is taken to be one of the vectors of Sannia frame. The characterizations for each ruled surface such as fundamental forms, the Gaussian and mean curvature are also examined to provide the conditions for each surface to be developable or minimal.

Recently, along with the improvements of geometry modeling methods using sketch-based interface, there have been a lot of developments in research about generating surface model from 3D curves. However, surfacing a 3D curve network remains an ambiguous problem due to the lack of geometric information. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for estimating the normal vectors of the 3D curves which accord closely with user intent. Bending energy is defined by utilizing RMF(Rotation-Minimizing Frame) of 3D curve, and we estimated this minimal energy frame as the one that accords design intent. The proposed algorithm is demonstrated with surface model creation of various curve networks. The algorithm of estimating geometric information in 3D curves which is proposed in this paper can be utilized to extract new information in the sketch-based modeling process. Also, a new framework of 3D modeling can be expected through the fusion between curve network and surface creating algorithm.
