This paper addresses an optimization for reducing a steering error of a rack-and-pinion steering linkage with a MacPherson strut independent front suspension system. The length, orientations and inner joint positions of a tie-rod are selected as design variables and Ackerman geonetry, understeer effect, minimum turn radius, wheel alignment and packaging are considered as design constraints. Nonlinear kinematic analysis of the steering system is performed for calculating the values of cost and constraints, and Augmented Lagrange Multiplier(ALM) method is used for solving the constrained optinization problem. The optimization results show that the steering error are considerably reduced while satisfying all the constraints.

A new PC cluster was designed and constructed based on Windows XP Operating system. Primary target of the present design was the high node density per rack by using the general PC parts those are cost-effective and readily available in the market. Other major design points were system cooling and the convenient maintenance using standard PC parts. Presently 24 nodes per rack seems to be optimum considering the specification of the network switching device, system cooling and power supply, but 40 nodes can be accommodated within a single rack at maximum. Windows XP was selected as a high-performance computing environment considering the cost and the convenience in acquisition, maintenance and education. Both fast-Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet network connection were tested and compared with previous data, especially for Linux doter using Myrinet. The result shows that there is no significant difference between the operating systems and the Fast-Ethernet and/or Gigabit Ethernet are good solution for the high-performance PC cluster considering the cost and performance.

제조현장에서 작업자는 작업 지시서에 따라 제조 공정에 소재를 투입하고 투입 기록을 남기는 방식으로 운영해왔으나, 누락하는 경우가 많아 제품 LOT 추적이 안되는 경우가 발생하고 있었으며, 최근 스마트공장 구축으로 RFID-Tag를 활용하여 소재 투입 정보를 자동입력 하는 시스템으로 진행되고 있다. 특히, 생산라인에 투입되는 RACK에 부착된 TAG 정보를 수신하여 RACK(TAG) ID와 RACK 투입시간 데이터 분석을 통한 투입정보를 자동으로 생성토록 하여 초기 자동인식률이 97%로 양호하였으나 멀티소재 사용 RACK, TAG분실, 신규 제품 투입 이슈 등이 발생하면서 자동인식률이 계속 낮아지는 상황이다. 인공지능형 스마트공장 데이터셋 구축 방법은 자동인식률 향상과 실시간 모니터링이 가능해지므로 생산 공정의 전반에 있어 속도와 수율(정상제품 비율)을 높이는데 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

This study was carried out to establish an analytical method on the open circuit seawater pipeline network for open rack vaporizers(ORVs). The linear theory method was chosen to solve this network system. In particular, the method was modified to calculate the static pressure at each node and to determine the operating condition of each pump with the mean static pressure of pumps and ORVs. The proposed method is the first report demonstrating that can be used as a solver for the complicated open circuit. Also, the method indicated the importance for exactly calculating equivalent length of pipes including valves, bends, fittings, and others to raise the accuracy. Although this technique is good for solving this system, it is still required to improve the convergence rate.

In this study, designing of precise linear transferring device which can be applied to industrial machine and robot industry has been introduced. The direction of power flow and output feature are similar to current Rack-Pinion type. However, unlimited length extensity via rack modulizing, and securing high velocity transportation have been realized by applying Pin-Pinion Gear type at the operation part. The analysis has been calculated to obtain the Pin-Pinion Gear's optimized tooth profile. As a result of research, it is impossible to control precisely even overlap at the teeth of involute and sprocket. Because they have peculiar gearing structure. Therefore, modified cycloid tooth has been proposed to perform high velocity, precise control without backlash.

The purpose of this paper is to study and analyze the failure examples on tribological characteristics of an automotive steering system. In this failure study, the grease leakage may stick leaked grease, dust, and wear particles between pinion and rack gears in mechanical steering system. In the case of seal failures such as a rod seal, o-ring and oil seals, the gear box and oil pump do not operate properly due to lack of oils. This means that oil pump does not supply a working fluid and produce a normal oil pressure of the steering system. This leads to leak a working fluid from the seals and produce a wear between pinion and rack gears. Especially, the leaked oil is usually mixed with internal wear particles and foreign dust/fine sands. Thus no leakage of working oils is very important design concepts, which is strongly related to the sealing components and smoothly operating of the mechanical friction parts of power steering system.

무궤도 이동랙은 물류센터에서 보관공간효율화를 위해 이용되고 있으며, 궤도가 없이 움직일 수 있는 특징으로 인하여 종래 물류센터에서 레일을 추가하는 등의 바닥공사 없이 용이하게 설치할 수 있다는 장점을 지니고 있다. 그러나 본 이동랙은 왼쪽과 오른쪽 구동부가 별도로 설치되어 있어 독립적으로 동기화 제어를 해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 특히, 화물의 불균형성이 제어 성능에 크게 영향을 미치므로, 강인한 제어기를 기반으로 한 동기화제어가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 파라미터 변동에 대하여 강인한 강인서보계를 구성하였으며, 내부 및 외부의 동기화제어를 위하여 반복제어기법을 이용한 동기화 제어알고리즘을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 강인서보계 및 반복제어계의 유효성을 보였으며, 실험에서는 동기화제어기법을 통한 제어의 유효성을 고찰하였다.

This study present a direct steering system using rack and pinion for ultra-small vehicles. The traditional small vehicles for special use had the limitation of space by reason of short wheel tread. These vehicles has adopted a indirect steering system or a center arm system for steering. The disadvantages of these system were deterioration of gear efficiency and increase of parts. For direct-linkage to both knuckles, steering system is made up of out-side tie rods, tie-rod ends, and gear box. Thus, the proposed system has a minimum number of parts. The experimental results show a maximum efficiency at minimum steering angle and a minimum clearance circle. These effects were accomplished by adopting a Ackerman-Jantaud theory.

In this research, a power-assisted steering system is modeled as a part of a full vehicle dynamic model. The dynamic model of the steering system incorporates hydraulic and dynamic relations between major parts of a steering system, such as steering column, control valve, rack and pinion gear. Through an experimental setup of the steering system, the steering system model is validated. The steering model is included in a full vehicle dynamic model of a car, where kinematic relations between steering and suspension system are defined, and various simulations are performed to evaluate the performance of steering system in conjunction with overall dynamic performance of the vehicle.
