The characteristics for bimorph PZT cantilever of laboratory-fabricated have been evaluated experimentally. The deflections of cantilever with PZT are result from a capillary force between a water drop and a tip of cantilever. The output voltage due to deflect cantilever are depend on the tip shape and thickness of cantilever. We applied a bimorph PZT cantilever to oil thickness measurement. This reasonable concept is that the output voltage be caused by different defected characteristics between oil and surface. Experimental results demonstrated that the high measurement accuracy of the oil film thickness is obtained from the probe.

As tools for machining precision components, end mills and ball end mills are widely used. For the end mills have longer cylindrical shape comparing diameter, liable to deflect and induce deterioration of surface roughness. Tool geometry parameters and cutting process have complex relations with each other. So, It is hard to determine hew to select optimal tool geometry. So, to improve the stiffness, relationship between cutting process and tool geometry must be studied. In this study, relations between grinding wheel geometry, setting condition and tool geometry are revealed. For the purpose of studying relations between each parameter, the equivalent diameter of tool has been calculated assuming tool as a simple beam. By the various cutting simulations and experiments, tool geometry and cutting process has been studied.

As tools for machining precesion componants, end mills and ball end mill are widely used. For the end mill have longer cylindrical shape comparing diameter, they are liable to deflect when machining and induce geometrical error and deterioration of surface roughness. To improve the stiffness and the sharpness of the cutting edge of end mill, a software for manufaturing end mills are developed. The progeam predicts the result of helical flute grinding and the configuration of cutting edge which is located in cylindrical surface. Furthermore to facilitate the manufacturing end mill using CNC grinding machine, the setting conditions which satisfy the geometrical requirments like tool rake angle and stiffness are obtained.

In this paper, we estimated the straight line stability by performing a 3 degree of freedom spiral test simulation of a intact/damaged surface combatant using the hydrodynamic coefficient obtained through the PMM(Planar motion mechanism) test based on system engineering process. A model ship was ONR Tumblehome and damaged compartment was set on the starboard bow. As a result of conducting a spiral test simulation based on the experimental results of J.Ha (2018), the asymmetric straight line stability due to the damaged compartment was confirmed. In the case of a ship in which the starboard bow was damaged, it was confirmed that it had the characteristic to deflect to the left when going straight. Also, when estimating the straight line stability of a both port and starboard asymmetric surface combatant, a separated equation of motion model that sees the port and starboard as different ships seems suitable.

This paper examines a new in-process measurement system for the measurement of micro-defects on the surfaces of brittle materials by using the AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy). A new AFM scanning stage that can also perform nano-scale bending of the sample was developed by adding a bending unit to a commercially available AFM scanner. The bending unit consists of a PZT actuator and sample holder, and can perform static and cyclic three-point bending. The true bending displacement of the bending unit is approximately 1.8mm when 80 volts are applied to the PZT actuator. The frequency response of the bending unit and the stress on the sample were also analyzed, both theoretically and experimentally. Potential surface defects of the sample were successfully detected by this measurement system. It was confirmed that the number of micro-defects on a scratched surface increases when the surface is subjected to a cyclic bending load.

Thermal bubbles find their diverse application areas in the MEMS (MicroElectroMechanial Systems) technology, including bubble jet printers, microactuators, micropumps, etc.. Especially, microactuators and micropumps, which use a microbubble growing by a controlled heat input, frequently involve mechanical and thermal interaction of the bubble with a solid structure, such as a cantilever beam and a membrane. Although the concept is experimentally verified that an internal pressure of the bubble can build up high enough to deflect a thin solid plate or a beam, the physics of the entire process have not yet been thoroughly explored. This work reports the experimental study of the growth of a thermal bubble while deflecting a thin cantilever beam. A physical model is presented to predict the elastic response of the cantilever beam based on the experimental measurements. The scaling law constructed through this work can provide a design guide for micro- and nano-systems that employ a thermal bubble for their actuation/pumping mechanism.

The isotropic steel sheet was developed and started to apply on the auto-body outer panel, however the characteristics of application on auto-body were not well known. In this paper the FE analysis of outer panel of auto-body was carried out to investigate the characteristics of isotropic steel sheet. For the FE analysis of the roof panel of ULSAB body the isotropic steel sheet and the bake hardening steel sheet were used. The Isotropic steel sheet shows more deformation at punch bottom area of roof panel than the bake hardening steel sheet that is most required forming properties far outer panel to obtain the shape likability of forming parts. It is shown that the isotropic steel sheet has suitable material properties far outer panels of auto-body.

Recently two seismic cloaking methods of earthquake engineering have been suggested. One is the seismic wave deflection method that makes the seismic wave bend away and the other is the shadow zone method that makes an area that seismic waves cannot pass through. It is called as seismic cloaking. The fundamental principles of the seismic cloaking by variable refractive index were explained. A two-dimensional cylindrical model which was composed of 40 layers of different density and modulus was tested by numerical simulation. The center region of the model to be protected is called 'cloaked area' and the outer region of it to deflect the incoming wave is called 'cloaking area' or 'cloak area.' As the incoming surface wave is approaching to the cloaking area, the refractive index is decreasing and, therefore, the velocity and impedance are increasing. Then, the wave bends away the cloaked area instead of passing it. Three cases are tested depending on the comparison between the seismic wavelength and the diameter of the cloaked region. The advantage and disadvantage of the method were compared with conventional earthquake engineering method. Some practical requirements for realization in fields were discussed.

In this study, the Non-Destructive Testing Equipment was introduced for the compaction control and the evaluation of pavements properties and the developing process was showed. Falling Weight Deflectometer(FWD) is a system for performing non-destructive testing of pavement and the other foundation structures. The system develops forces from the acceleration caused by the arrest of a falling weight and these forces are transmitted onto the surface of a structure causing it to deflect much as it would due to the weight of a passing wheel load. The structure will bend downward and exhibit a deflection basin. FWD uses a set of velocity sensors to determine the amplitude and shape of the deflection basin. The deflection response, when related to the applied loading, can provide information about the strength and condition of the various elements of the test structure. In this study, a computer program was developed that can be used to evaluate pavement and foundation structures from the data produced by FWD. The Falling Weight Deflectometer, non-destructive testing equipment, is increasing used at the whole world.
