A two-dimensional cross-section analysis program based on the finite element method has been developed for composite blades with solid, thin-walled and compound cross-sections. The weighted-modulus method is introduced to determine the laminated composite material properties. The shear center and the torsion constant for any given section are calculated according to the Trefftz' definition and the St. Venant torsion theory, respectively. The singular value problem of cross-section stiffness properties faced during the section analysis has been solved by performing an eigenvalue analysis to remove the rigid body mode. Numerical results showing the accuracy of the program obtained for stiffness, offset and inertia properties are compared in this analysis. The current analysis results are validated with those obtained by commercial software and published data available in the literature and a good correlation has generally been achieved through a series of validation study.

Acrylic resins (ethyl methacrylate-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate-n-butyl acrylate-acrylic acid EHBCs) containing 80％ of solid were synthesized. Then, high-solid coatings (ethyl methacrylate-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate-n-butyl acrylate-acrylic acid/hexamethylene diisocyanate-biuret : EHBCNs) were prepared by curing of the acrylic resin with curing agent hexamethylene diisocyanate-biuret at room temperature. The cure time of prepared coatings EHBCN-4 (EHBC-4 : $T_{g}$ = $0^{\circ}C$) and EHBCN-7 (EHBC-7 : $T_{g}$ = 3$0^{\circ}C$), measured by rigid-body pendulum method, was recorded 6.2 hours and 4.5 hours, respectively. Dynamic viscoelastic experiment revealed the glass transition temperature of EHBCN-4 and EHBCN-7 to be $14^{\circ}C$ and $39^{\circ}C$, respectively. It was found that the adhesion and flexural properties among various properties of coatings were enhanced by the incorporation of caprolactone acrylate monomer into the acrylic resins.

Large displacement and rigidity about rubber component are expected by nonlinear and large deformation analysis in this study. Rubber is also used by the model of Mooney-Rivlin and the self contact between rubbers is established. There is the friction between rigid body and rubber, wall and floor. The nonlinear simulation analysis used in this study is expected to be widely applied in design, analysis and development of several rubber components which are used in automotive, railroad, and mechanical elements etc. By utilizing this method, time and cost can also be saved in developing new rubber product. The analysis of rubber components requires special material modeling and non-linear finite element analysis tools that are quite different from those used for metallic parts. The objective of this study is to analyze the rubber component with large deformation and non-linear properties.

This paper deals with attitude determination and parameter estimation problems for a lunar module. For this we first derive equations of motion for the lunar module by considering allocation locations (configurations) of reaction thruster and a reaction wheel assembly. The lunar module is assumed as a rigid body. In order to include the effect of fuel sloshing on the dynamics of the lunar module, we model it as a spherical pendulum for a simple analysis. For estimating angular rates and moment of inertia of the module, we employ an extended Kalman filter and the least mean square algorithms, respectively. Finally we construct a dynamical model for the lunar module by combining all these elements.

This paper is the experimental study on the vibration reduction of the 4WD vehicle through the change of the engine mounting conditions.(4 stroke diesel engine) The engine mounting conditions are changed to reduce the transmitted vibrations of the engine to the frame at the idle speed. Under the assumption that the Powertrain(Engine Transmission and Transfer Case) is a rigid body, the inertia properties of the powertrain are obtained by experimental modal analysis. And then the changed mounting conditions are studied by the decoupled vibration theory and analytical model of six degree of freedom. Though the mounting conditions are changed to improve the vibration isolation at idle speed, the vibration and the interior noise of the vehicle are reduced significantly at driving speed as well as idle speed. From the indirect endurance test of the front engine mounts, the changed mounting conditions are desirable to endurance as well as vibration reduction of the 4WD vehicle.

The high-solid coatings were prepared by blending the synthesized acrylic resin in the previous paper and hexamethylene diisocyanate-trimer and curing it at room temperature. The characterization of the films of the prepared coatings was performed. The impact resistance, $60^{\circ}C$ specular gloss, cross-hatch adhension, and heat resistance of the films proved to be good, and the pencil hardness and drying time proved to be slightly poor. Especially, there was a remarkable improvement in the heat resistance. This improvement may stem from the regular arrangement of ethyl groups introduced into the acrylic resin. From a viscoelastic measurement using a rigid-body pendulum, curing was accelerated with the $T_g$ value. With the increase in $T_g$, log damp value was lowered and dynamic viscoelasic $T_g$ of a cured film was increased.

An analysis framework for vehicle-bridge dynamic interaction system under turbulent wind is proposed based on the relevant theory of wind engineering and dynamics. Considering the fluctuating properties of wind field, the stochastic wind velocity time history is simulated by the Auto-Regressive method in terms of power spectral density function of wind field. The bridge is represented by three-dimensional finite element model and the vehicle by a multi-rigid-body system connected by springs and dashpots. The detailed calculation formulas of unsteady aerodynamic forces on bridge and vehicle are derived. In addition, the form selection of wind barriers, which are applied as the windbreak measures of newly-built railways in northwest China, is studied based on the suggested evaluation index, and the suitable values about height and porosity rate of wind barriers are studied. By taking a multi-span simply-supported box-girder bridge as a case study, the dynamic response of the bridge and the running safety indices of the train traveling on the bridge with and without wind barriers are calculated. The limit values of train speed with respect to different wind velocities are proposed according to the allowance values in the design code.

High-solid coatings were prepared by blending of previosly synthesized acrylic resins and hexamethylene diisocyanate-trimer and curing it at room temperature. The characterization of the films of the prepared coatings was performed. The impact resistance, cross-hatch adhesion, $60^{\circ}$specular gloss, and heat resistance of the films proved to be good, and the pencil hardness and drying time proved to be slightly poor. Especially, there was a remarkable improvement in the heat resistance. This improvement may stem from the regular arrangement of ethyl groups introduced into the acrylic resin. As a result of Rigid-body pendulum visco-elasticity measurement, dynamic $T_g$ values of cured films increased with dynamic $T_g$ values.

An integrated flight simulation program for multicopter drones is presented. The program includes rigid body dynamics, propeller thrust, battery energy, control, and air. Using this program, users can monitor and analyze the states of drones along flight trajectories. As a programming language, Modelica has been chosen, that specializes in simulation program development. Modelica enables users to develop simulation programs efficiently due to acausal and object oriented properties. For missions including horizontal and vertical maneuvers, many dynamical states of drones have been analyzed with simulation results.
