In this study, a transfemoral prosthesis system of which stance phase and swing phase are controlled during walking has been developed for the recovery of the biomechanical function of the amputated leg. It consists of a 5 bar link mechanism, a hydraulic-rubber knee damper for stance phase control and a pneumatic cylinder controlled via a microprocessor for stance phase control. The mechanical characteristics and behaviour of the knee damper which absorbs the impact energy generated at the heel contact was investigated. The characteristics of the pneumatic cylinder essential for the speed adaptation of the prosthesis during swing phase was also studied for its mechanical characteristics. The prosthesis was subject to the clinical test ant the gait characteristics obtained were very close to those of normal. The stance and swing controlled prosthesis that were developed in this study showed good stability during the stance phase and showed good controllability during the swing phase.

This paper presents the results of experimental and numerical research on the slamming phenomenon. Two experimental techniques were proposed in this study. The traditional free drop tests were carried out. However, the free drop tests done in this study using an LM guide showed excellent repeatability, unlike those of other researchers. The coefficients of variation for the drop test done in this experiment were less than 0.1. The other experimental technique proposed in this study was a novel concept that used a pneumatic cylinder. The pneumatic cylinder could accelerate the specimen over a very short distance from the free surface. As a result, high rates of repeatability were achieved. In the numerical study, the development of in-house code and utilization of commercial code were carried out. The in-house code developed was based on the boundary element method. It is a potential code. This was mostly applied to the computation of the wedge entry problem. The commercial code utilized was FLUENT. Most of the previous slamming research was done under the assumption of a constant body velocity all through the impact process, which is not realistic at all. However, the interaction of a fluid and body were taken into account by employing a user-defined function in this study. The experimental and numerical results were compared. The in-house code based on BEM showed better agreement than that of the FLUENT computation when it cames to the wedge computation. However, the FLUENT proved that it could deal with a very complex geometry while BEM could not. The proposed experimental and numerical procedures were shown to be very promising tools for dealing with slamming problems.

The excavator is complex machinery which has widely used in the construction site, deck of harbor and deep sea. The one of important issue of excavator system in recent is an automation of it in order to improve a working efficiency, a convenience working circumstance and work satisfaction. However, since there are large nonlinearities of control circuit, actuating cylinder, joiners of hydraulic units and changing loads etc., it is difficult to develope an automatic excavator system. Therefore, in this study, toy scale pneumatic excavator system is constructed and the remote control system is installed on it, before developing the automatic excavator system. In order to design the control system of the developed pneumatic excavator system, the transfer function is obtained using signal processing method and the controller gains of PID are decided based on CDM(coefficient diagram method). The obtained transfer function and the performance of the proposed control system is evaluated through experiments and computer simulation.

Home Entertainment system is recently being offered by Home Theater & Smart TV with contents service. Also, console game is being played in the media like in TV. The usage of 4D as the main technology in entertainment industry has mostly been limited in Theme Park, Amuse Park, Theater, and contents for Movie and Animation. Some simulation systems for game has been developed but they were made mostly by using electric or hydraulic motion system which cause high power consumption and have a restriction of place for install. The paper is attempted to build Home Entertainment system which makes users feel realistic contents by developing 4D systems for Home Entertainment rather than before. 4D control S/W in which user can insert and edit 4D effects on contents of all areas such as game, movie, and broadcasting is developed. Also, built-in pneumatic cylinder in 4D system which can be easily controlled and managed in home is developed.

This study suggests a trajectory tracking controller composed of an input output linearization compensator and a linear controller. The input output linearization compensator is derived from the nonlinear equations of a pneumatic control system and it algebraically transforms a nonlinear system dynamics into a linear one, so that input output characteristics of the control system is linearized regardless of the variation of the operating point and linear control techniques can be applied. The results of nonlinear simulations show that the proposed controller tracks the given trajectories more accurately than a state feedback controller does.

This paper shows a performance analysis for step type and conical type sealess cylinders. 2 dimensional Reynolds equation and finite difference numerical techniques are utilized for the performance analysis and the piston design. Centering forces of conical pistons are higher than those of step ones. Also, leakage flows of conical pistons are lower than those of step ones. But, the step type piston is practically suggested to apply for sealess cylinders because it is difficult that conical portion is precisely manufactured.

The position control of a pneumatic cylinder suing low cost on-off valves is studied. The valve control band(VCB) was proposed toget fast response and toprevent solenoid valves from unnecessary switching at the beginning of response. A learning algorithm was used to compensate the nonlinearity and complexity in mathematical modelling of pheumatic on-off controlled positioning systems. In this algorithm, the desired performance index and modified learning rate, were proposed to improvespeed and convergence of learning control. It is shown experimentally that the proposed algorithm is robust to changes of system parameters: the setting time less than 1.0 sec and the error bound of .+-. 0.1 mm can be obtained. The effects of supply pressure, size of switching valves and the effect of multiple valves are discussed, and computer simulation onthe dynamic performances of the pneumatic system is also presented.

Gabion can be used for the purpose of preventing overflow of river and side loss of road. However the manufacturing process of the gabion is manually controlled especially to the joining process at the terminal part of gabion with small diameter wire. In this paper automatic feeding guide system was designed and fabricated to make automation. The fabricated system was tested in the factory level. Pneumatic system was considered as the main idea of the feeding system. 3/2-way and 5/2-way manual control valve, eight double-acting cylinders were used. Based on the theoretical simulation and actual test the fabricated system was well controlled. The system was applied to the patent.

There are many EMU lines in korea. But only one type has been applied to passenger side door. This type is so called "Pocket sliding type". This type has some week points. To begin with, it is not good for decreasing the noisy form the outside of carbody. And the second time, if some obstacles are put between sliding door, only driver can operate re-open door switch manually ill driver's cab. This type is so dangerous for passengers. So many people want to the new door type that have no defect. KRRI joined forces with ANT corporation for pneumatic plug door system. This type will be good for decreasing the noisy, passenger′s safe. The project was started at the last year on November and will be finished on June, this year In this paper, we will deal with the role of cylinder, planetary gear, door control unit, dynamic mechanism, and the report of FEM, type test. This paper will contribute to tile electric motor control plug door system.
