In the present study, monitoring of elliptical vibration cutting process by utilizing internal data in the ultrasonic elliptical vibration device without external sensors such as a dynamometer and displacement sensor is investigated. The internal data utilized here is the change of excitation frequency, i.e. resonant frequency of the device, voltages applied to the piezoelectric actuators composing the device, and electric currents flowing through the actuators. These internal data change automatically in the elliptical vibration control system in order to keep a constant elliptical vibration against the change of the cutting process. Correlativity between the process and the internal data is described by using a vibration model of ultrasonic elliptical vibration cutting and verified by several experiments, i.e. planing and mirror surface finishing of hardened die steel carried out with single crystalline diamond tools. As a result, it is proved that it is possible to estimate the elements of elliptical vibration cutting process, e.g. tool wear and machining load, which are important for stable cutting in such precision machining.

Construction activities and operation of transportation facilities have caused unfavorable effects such as civil petitions associated with vibration-induced damages or nuisances. The objedtive of this research is to develop vibration-controlled concrete containing foams, latex, rubber powders, plastic resins and etc as a concrete mixture. As the first step to achieve this research, preliminary mix designs have been carried out to find out an appropriate mix proportion above 200kg/㎠ in uniaxial compressive strength, and investigate their dynamic mechanical characteristics such as dynamic elastic moduli, material damping ratio, Poisson's ratio, resonant frequency and etc.

The vibration behavior of glass-fabric reinforced plastic(GFRP) composite beams subjected to various transverse impacts has been investigated as a function of fiber orientation and void fraction. Theoretical results of resonant frequency damping coefficient and modal amplitude dispersion using the Euler-beam theory were obtained along with the finite element analysis which were compared with experimental ones Consequently it was shown that the transverse vibration characteristics were largely affected by fiber orientation and void fraction.

This paper addresses a systematic way of understanding the transfer characteristics of whole-body vibration due to the external excitation. Amirouche's and Tamaoki's models are considered, whose analysis shows a new result that resonant frequencies related to the head vibration are well coincided with those of the body. This point reveals that the improvement of the ride quality of passenger cars can be achieved by isolating only external vibration components transfered to the body. Finally, this paper points out the limitation of previous whole-body vibration models, which gives the motivations of setting up more 'practical and generalized' whole-body vibration models of interest in this study.

Fruits we subjected to complex dynamic stresses in the transportation environment. During a long journey from the production area to markets, there is always some degree of vibration present. Vibration inputs are transmitted from the vehicle through the packaging to the fruit. Inside, these cause sustained bouncing of fruits against each other and container wall. These steady state vibration input may cause serious fruit injury, and this damage is particularly severe whenever the fruit inside the package is free to bounce, and is vibrated at its resonant frequency. The determination of the resonant frequencies of the fruit may help the packaging designer to determine the proper packaging system providing adequate protection for the fruit, and to understand the complex interaction between the components of fruit when they relate to expected transportation vibration inputs. The vibration characteristics of the pears in corrugated fiberboard container in transit were analyzed using FEM (finite element method) modeling, and the FEM modeling approach was first validated by comparing the results obtained from simulation and experiment for the pear in the frequency range 3 to 150 Hz and acceleration level of 0.25 G-rms and it was found that between simulated and measured frequencies of the pears have a relatively good agreement. It was observed that the fruit and vegetables in corrugated fiberboard container could be analyzed by finite element method. As the elastic modulus of the cushion materials of corrugated fiberboard pad and tray cup decreased, the first frequencies of upper and lower pears increased and the peak acceleration decreased.

In this study, the two methods of stiffness measurement(Spring constant) of cantilever were proposed for quantitative measurement in Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). As the 1st method for the measurement of stiffness, the probe method, which is used in the measurement of the semiconductor mechanical and electrical properties, was applied to the measurement of the cantilever. Experiments by the probe method were performed finding the resistance value of cantilever. As the results, the resistance was measured differently along with the dimension and the thickness of cantilever that determined the stiffness(spring constant) of the lever. As the 2nd method, the vibration characteristics(Dunkerley expression) is used to obtain the stiffness of the complex structure which is combined by AFM cantilever and the standard cantilever. We measured the resonant frequency from the complex structure using the micro stages and stereo microscope. As the results, we confirmed that the vibration characteristics(Dunkerley expression) is effected the micro complex structure of AFM cantilever.

A piezoelectric device which converts mechanical vibration energy into electrical energy is able to harvest energy and the usable energy is mW ${\sim}$ W, hence a converter is necessary to acquire the energy efficiently. Various limited conditions should be considered for the design of AC/DC converter for energy harvesting of a piezoelectric device supplying small amount of energy. In addition to simple structure, compact size, light weight and high efficiency, the energy harvesting AC!DC converter should adopt the technique of self operating, in which only the harvested energy from the piezoelectric device is available. This paper proposes new AC/DC resonant boost converter to harvest efficiently electrical energy from mechanical vibration energy, analyzes the operating characteristics of the converter and proves its feasibility for energy harvester with PSPICE simulation and experiment.

In this study, thickness vibration mode piezoelectric devices for AE sensor application were simulated using ATILA FEM program, and then fabricated. Trajectory resonant displacement and electro mechanical coupling factors of the piezoelectric devices were investigated. The simulation results showed that excellent displacement and electro mechanical coupling factor was obtained when the ratio of diameter/thickness($\Phi/T$) was 0.75. The piezoelectric device of $\Phi/T$=0.75 exhibited the optimum values of fr= 183 kHz, displacement= $4.44{\times}10^{-7}[m]$, $k_{33}$= 0.69, which were suitable for the application of AE sensor piezoelectric device.

In dynamic force microscopy, the cantilever oscillates at a resonant frequency, and the tip deflection is measured at this frequency. The cantilever deflection is, however, highly nonlinear, and the surface properties can be embedded in the deflection at the frequencies other than the original resonant frequency of the cantilever. Multifrequency atomic force microscopy includes the excitation and detection of the deflection in two or more frequencies which are higher harmonics or eigenmodes. This can overcome the limitations of conventional atomic force microscope. We reviewed the multifrequency atomic force microscopy and its applications in many fields.
