The present study was performed to investigate gait characteristics of 30-39 year-old normal adults and 9-10 year-old children. The results focused on joint motions in the sagittal plane and ground reaction forces. The results will play an important role as a valuable data to determine normal and abnormal gait patterns as well as gait characteristics of Korean people.

The finite element method is applied to analyze the mechanism of metal cutting. This paper introduces some effects, such constitutive deformation laws of workpiece material, friction of tool-chip contact interfaces, tool rake angles and also simulate the cutting process, chip formation and geometry, tool-chip contact, reaction force of tool, cutting temperature. Under the usual [lane strain assumption, quasi-static analysis were performed with variation of tool-chip interface friction coefficients and rake angles. In this analysis, various cutting speeds and depth of cut are adopted. Some cutting parameters are affected to cutting force, plastic deformation of chip, shear plane angle, chip thickness and tool-chip contact length and reaction forces on tool. Cutting temperature and Thermal behavior. Several aspects of the metal cutting process predicted by the finite element analysis provide information about tool shape design and optimal cutting conditions.

This study aims to validate the effectiveness of VE system with an arm-master in the evaluation of virtual prototype. A virtual kitchen with a refrigerator was presented in a CAVE system. Subjects put in and pull out virtual objects by using the arm-master. Twelve subjects participated in six experimental conditions: three types of refrigerator door grips and two reaction forces. After each trial, subjects evaluated a virtual refrigerator in terms of easiness of operation, similarity in force, presence etc. The results show the subjects preferred vertical grip than horizontal grip and light reaction force than heavy one. The VE system with the arm-master will be very helpful in the design evaluation of virtual prototypes.

The capacity of tubular truss chords subjected to concentrated reaction forces in the vicinity of the open end (i.e., the bearing region) is not directly treated by existing design specifications; although capacity equations are promulgated for related tubular joint configurations. The lack of direct treatment of bearing capacity in existing design specifications seems to represent an unsatisfactory situation given the fact that connections very often control the design of long-span tubular structures comprised of members with slender cross-sections. The case of the simple-span overhead highway sign truss is studied, in which the bearing reaction is applied near the chord end. The present research is aimed at assessing the validity of adapting existing specifications' capacity equations from related cases so as to be applicable in determining design capacity in tubular truss bearing regions. These modified capacity equations are subsequently used in comparisons with full-scale experimental results obtained from testing carried out at the University of Pittsburgh.

Alignment of marine engine shafting generally implies a judicious slope alignment of supporting bearings in order to achieve acceptable values of bearing reactions and shaft stresses for all deformation conditions of hull. Authors developed a computer program, which computes the bearing reaction forces, the bearing reaction influence numbers and etc, using quadruple integration method. And the results of calculation for a 26,000 DWT steam container carrier were in good agreements with those of foreign shipyard. Also they introduced the optimization technique of slope alignment combined technical economic basis, and as a result of comparing characteristics of shafting in case of straight alignment whit those in case of slope alignment, the latter was found to be much better than the former.

An inverse dynamic procedure for spatial multibody systems containing flexible bodies is developed in the relative joint coordinate space. Constraint acceleration equations are derived in terms of relative coordinates using the velocity transformation technique. An inverse velocity transformation operator, which transforms the Cartesian velocities to the relative velocities, is derived systematically corresponding to the types of kinematic joints connecting the bodies and the system reference matrix. Using the resulting matrix, the joint reaction forces and moments are analyzed in the Cartesian coordinate space. The formulation is illustrated by means of two numerical examples.

The hermetic reciprocating compressor driven by the BLDC motor rotating with variable speeds, is modelled and analyzed for dynamic characteristics. The governing equations of piston, connecting rod and crank-shaft of the reciprocating compression mechanism and characteristics of driving torque of the motor are obtained. Dynamic behavior of the crankshaft supported on 2 journal bearings is analyzed considering compression load and eccentric unbalance for the 4 rotating speeds of crankshaft. And. reaction forces generated from oil film in the journal bearings are analyzed under transient condition using Reynolds' equation. To take into account the dynamic characteristics depending on the variable rotating speeds, comparison on the dynamic behavior of crank-shaft is made for the 4 operating modes of the compressor. Results show that the magnitude of crankshaft locioperating on the lower rotating speeds is more larger than the higher ones due to reduction of inertia force of the reciprocating piston.

In many papers, the powertrain system generally has been madeled as one-dimensional torque model. One-dimensional powertrain model may calculate the torque correctly but it does not consider the non-rotational degrees-of-freedom of the powertrain components and the interaction of these degrees-of-freedom with the vehicle body frame and suspension. To consider the non-rotational degrees of freedom, the differential is modeled as a three-dimensional rigid body in this paper. A constant velocity joint is newly formulated and a relative constraint is also formulated to model the motion transfer due to gear ratio of the differential. Implementing the proposed powertrain system in the multibody model, more detail dynamic responses can be obtained. Obtained outputs such as reaction torques on the constant velocity joint and reaction forces on the rack can be useful data in the design of a powertrain.

This paper deals with the real-time stable walking for a humanoid robot, ISHURO-II, on uneven terrain. A humanoid robot necessitates achieving posture stabilization since it has basic problems such as structural instability. In this paper, a stabilization algorithm is proposed using the ground reaction forces, which are measured using FSR (Force Sensing Resistor) sensors during walking, and the ground conditions are estimated from these data. From this information the robot selects the proper motion pattern and overcomes ground irregularities effectively. In order to generate the proper reaction under the various ground situations, a fuzzy algorithm is applied in finding the proper angle of the joint. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation and walking experiments on a 24-DOFs humanoid robot, ISHURO-II.

The infiltration of ceramics by liquid metals to fabricate ceramic-metal composites is discussed. In particular, the complexity of infiltrating ceramics by liquid metals at high temperatures due to interfacial reactions, metal oxidation, pore modulation and closure, and transient capillary forces has been highlighted. The role of these factors is discussed in the context of reactive infiltration with examples from ceramic/metal composites of practical interest. In addition to flow through porous ceramics, reactive penetration of dense ceramics via chemical dissolution and reaction is also discussed.
