This paper is to see the availability of electrical signatures as a means for evaluating the performance and monitoring mechanical anomalies of (MOVs). To estimate motor torque, two methods such as d-q frame conversion and air-gap method are suggested and estimated results are compared with measured values. The error between measured and estimated torques is within acceptable error bound with below $1\%$ under varied load. Frequency domain analysis of calculated torque has been done as well. It is shown that monitoring of peak frequency could give useful clues to detect anomalies of MOV. As results, electrical signatures at MOV motor is expected to be an available tool for estimation of motor capacity and monitoring of electrical and mechanical abnormalities.

In this paper we discuss the nonlinear motion of a conservative two-link arm using first integrals, which includes one integral constant. In the analysis of the motion, the constant plays important role. First, we give some discussion on the free motion by focusing on the integral constant. As the result, the free motion can be classified into two types-the one is oscillation and the other is rotation. Second, we discuss the forced motion of the arm actuated only at the second joint. We take the first integral in a more general form, and show that the forced motion of the second link can be expressed as a variation of the integral constant. Also, the characteristic of the forced motion actuated by arbitrary constant torques is discussed.

When a bolt is tightened up to the range of plastic deformation, yielding is governed by the combined stresses due to the axial force developed in the bolt and the frictional torque developed on the thread in contact with the nut. Consideration is taken account of the fact that the unused portion of the thread has least sectional area being subject to initial yielding. Once yielding has taken place some strain hardening effect will result, Incremental stress-strain relations are used to treat the continued yielding, which is equivalent to treat continued yielding as if summing up the effects of thin walled cylinders subject to plastic deformation. M10 bolts of common and fine series thread are used for computational purposes. Variation of axial forces and frictional torques vs. the frictional coefficients tare presented together with other plots showing some characteristics of bolt under plastic deformation.

It is common knowledge amongst electrical and marine engineers that short-circuit in electrical system may cause large mechanical torque on generator and prime mover However, it is not so widely known that the faulty synchronizing of generators may cause even higher torques than that of short-circuit. In this study, the transient phenomena related to the parallel running of synchronous generators are analyzed and the exact computer simulation method is proposed. In result, maximum transient torque and current take place in case of $120^{\circ}$ voltage angle difference between Master and Slave and that may develop higher torque than the short-circuit according to a condition of synchronizing. When synchronizing in power system using only two generators higher torque and current occur Master, but using multimachine system those occur to Slave. The short-circuit of marine generator does not happen frequently but faulty synchronizing sometimes takes place, therefore, it is necessary for designers to consider these phenomena.

In this paper, in order to guarantee successful operation of KSR-III TVC actuator in the presence of excessive external disturbances, a relief valve is designed as a key component of the actuator. It is shown that the relief valve can resolve the stability problems which occur due to actuator failure in the presence of excessive disturbance torques on the actuator. Six degree-of-freedom simulation shows that relief valves with low operating pressure and low LOHM parameter may be better is stability and performance of the TVC actuator system.

Gantry mechanisms have been widely used for precision manufacturing and material handling in electronics, nuclear, and automotive industries. Dual-drive servo mechanism is a way to increase control bandwidth, in which two primary axes aligned in parallel are synchronously driven by identical servo motors. With this mechanism, a flexible coupling (compliance mechanism) is often introduced in order to avoid the damage by the servo mismatch between the primary drives located at each side of gantry. This paper describes the design guidelines of the dual-drive servo mechanism with focus on its dynamic characteristics and control ramifications. That is, the effect on the system bandwidth which is critical on the system performance, the errors and torques exerted on guide ways in case of servo mismatch, the vibration characteristics concerned with dynamic error and settling time, and the driving force required at each axis for control are thoroughly investigated.

This paper proposes the modeling of the dynamics of two cooperating robot manipulators performing the assembly job such as peg-in-hole while coordinating the payload along the desired path. The mass and moment of inertia of the manipulators and the payload are assumed to be unknown. To control the uncertain system, a robust control algorithm based on the computed torque control is proposed. Usually, the robust controller requires high input torques such that it may face input saturation in actual application. In this reason, the robust control algorithm includes fuzzy logic such that the magnitude of the input torque of the manipulators is controlled not to go over the hardware saturation while keeping path tracking errors bounded. A numerical example using dual three degree-of-freedom manipulators is shown.

Determining the motion using optimal technique about traveling time and trajectory planning has been studied often in recent years, but the study of determining the optimal robot dimensions is rare, the authors attempt to find out the least driving torques and energy as the optimization of link length ratio referred to 2R SCARA and 3R robot manipulators. For the given linear path with triangular velocity profile, the inverse kinematic and dynamic problems are examined in order to lead into solution of problem, which is suggested for optimal design of link lengths. Accordingly, optimal link length ratio is obtained with respect to each case.

A comparative study on the implant screw loosening under the initial clamping force and cyclic loads was conducted. The experiments were performed to evaluate the screw loosening behavior of the internal and external implant systems. It was found that the screw loosening torques of implant systems were significantly affected by the way how the abutment and fixture were connected due to the difference in the load transfer mechanism between abutment and fixture.

Two-wheeled driying mobild robots are precise controlled in terms of linear contol methods without considering the nonlinear dynamical characteristics. However, in the high maneuvering situations such as fast turn and abrupt start and stop, such neglected terms become dominant and heavy influence the overall driving performance. This study describes the nonlinear optimal control method to take advantage of the exact nonlinear dynamics of the balancing robot. Simulation results indicate that the optimal control outperforms in the respect of transient performance and required wheel torques. A design example is suggested for the state matrix that provides design flexibility in the control. It is shown that a well-planned state matrix by reflecting the physics of a balancing robot greatly conrtibutes to the driving performance and stability.
