Electric Power Steering (EPS) system is superior to conventional Hydraulic Power Steering (HPS) system in aspect of fuel economy and environmental concerns. The EPS system consists of torque sensor, electric motor, ECU (Electric Control Unit), gears and etc. Among the elements, the torque sensor is one of the core technologies of which output signal is used for main input of EPS controller. Usually, the torque sensor has used torsion bar to transform torsion angle into torque and needs linear characteristic in terms of flux variation with respect to rotation angle of permanent magnet. The torsion angle of both ends of a torsion bar is measured by a contact variable resistor. In this paper, the sensor is accurately analyzed using 3D finite element method and its characteristics with respect to four different shapes of the stator teeth are compared. The four shapes are rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal and circular type.

The torsion bar, which is a steering torque sensor, is mounted between the steering pinion and the input shaft in the IPA(input pinion assembly). Accurate torque measurement is important to improve the sense of operation, and the straightness of the torsion bar can affect torque measurement. In this study, the amount of bending was measured and the exact shape was analyzed regarding the bending phenomenon in the press-fitting process for torsion bars. The effect of alignment error was analyzed through finite element forming analysis. Process data analysis was conducted for the double-end press fit model. If there is an alignment error of about 10% of the serration tooth height, the indentation load is reduced by about 10%. If there is an alignment error, the torsion bar is rotated.

In torque transmission system, we must suppressed vibration for Accuracy characteristic response of motor, Therefore, vibration suppression factor is very important motor control. To suppress vibration, a various control method has been proposed. Specially, one method of vibration suppression used disturbance observer filter. This method is torsion torque passing disturbance observer filter. By the estimated torsion torque feedback, vibration can be suppressed. The CDM(coefficient diagram method) is used to design the filter and Proportional controller. But using coefficient diagram method, not adapted controller parameter in disturbance. For this solution, we used fuzzy controller for auto tuning controller parameter. We proved this approach is confirmed by simulation.

The carbon fiber epoxy composite material and aluminum have many advantages over other materials because of their high specific stiffness and good fatigue characteristics. Basically, the propeller shaft of automobile requires bending frequency of higher than 2,700 Nm and high natural frequency of higher than 9,200 rpm occurred by fast revolution. For this reason, natural frequency and torsion torque characteristics of hybrid shaft was studied in variation of its outer-diameter and thickness. Vibration and torque characteristics of hybrid shaft were compared by torsion tester, natural frequency experiments and FE analysis. Designed hybrid shaft satisfied its vibration and torque characteristics when its outer-diameter was 60 mm and thickness was 5 mm. Therefore, hybrid material enables to manufacture one piece structure hybrid propeller shaft rather than current two piece structure.

The responses of hypothetical silicon nanotubes under torsion have been investigated using an atomistic simulation based on the Tersoff potential. A torque, proportional to the deformation within Hooke's law, resulted in the ribbon-like flattened shapes and eventually led to a breaking of hypothetical silicon nanotubes. Each shape change of hypothetical silicon nanotubes corresponded to an abrupt energy change and a singularity in the strain energy curve as a function of the external tangential force, torque, or twisted angle. The dynamics of silicon nanotubes under torsion can be modelled in the continuum elasticity theory.

각형 호선이 edgewise 브라켓에 삽입되면 first, second order는 bending에 의해, third order는 torsion(비틀림)에 의해 3차원적인 force system이 발생한다. Bending에 관하여는 분석적 그리고 실험적인 많은 연구가 보고 되어 있는 반면 비틀림에 관해서는 상대적으로 많은 연구가 이루어 지지 않았다. 본 연구의 목적은 각형 와이어의 재료와 단면의 형태가 와이어의 비틀림 모멘트에 어떻게 영향을 주는지를 이론적, 실험적으로 밝혀서 임상적으로 적절한 모멘트를 가할 때 호선의 재료와 굵기를 합리적으로 선택할 수 있도록 하는데 있다. 실험재료로는 third order조절을 위해 가장 많이 사용하는 호선을 사용하였다. 크기별로 0.016x0.022, 0.017x0.025, 0.019x0.025인치 그리고 재료로는 stainless steel (Ormco), TMA(Ormco), NiTi(Ormco), 그리고 braided stainless steel(DentaFlex, Dentauum) 네 가지를 사용하여 총 12개의 조합을 사용하였다. Torsion formula를 이용하여 비틀림 강성 (torque/twist rate)을 계산하였고 torque gauge를 이용하여 비틀림 강성, 항복 비틀림 모멘트 (yield torsional moment), 그리고 최대 비틀림 모멘트 (ultimate torsional moment)를 측정하였다. Torsion formula에 의하면 비틀림 강성 (T/$\theta$)은 재료적인 특성(G)과 호선의 단면의 특성(J)에 비례하고 호선의 길이(L)에 반비례한다. 대부분의 실험치는 이론적인 값과 비슷하게 나타났다.

This paper is about the study of a new exo-skeleton device applying a gravity compensator. The exo-skeleton devices is to reduce the external torque applied to the human body joint for the purpose of helping the disabled, reducing heavy payload for industry workers or military soldiers. Most of the exoskeleton devices are actuated by the motors, but motors are limited in energy such that a short durability is always a big problem. In this paper, an exoskeleton device using a new gravity compensator based on a torsion bar is proposed to reduce the torque load applied to human body joints. The exoskeleton device is designed for the lower body of human. Analyses on the torsion bar spring and link of the exoskeleton device using FEM method were performed. To reduce the applied torque to the human joint, a torsion bar gravity compensator is applied to the exoskeleton. The effect of the torsion bar compensator for the exoskeleton device was verified through load test using developed test equipment.

Experiments were performed to explore the hysteretic performance of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) cross-shaped columns. Nine specimens were designed and tested under the combined action of compression, flexure, shear and torsion. Torsion-bending ratio (i.e., 0, 0.14, 0.21) and steel forms (i.e., Solid - web steel, T - shaped steel, Channel steel) were considered in the test. Both failure processes and modes were obtained during the whole loading procedure. Based on experimental data, seismic indexes, such as bearing capacity, ductility and energy dissipation were investigated in detail. Experimental results suggest that depending on the torsion-bending ratio, failure modes of SRC cross-shaped columns are bending failure, flexure-torsion failure and torsion-shear failure. Shear - displacement hysteretic loops are fuller than torque - twist angle hysteretic curves. SRC cross-shaped columns exhibit good ductility and deformation capacity. In the range of test parameters, the existence of torque does not reduce the shear force but it reduces the displacement and bending energy dissipation capacity. What is more, the bending energy dissipation capacity increases with the rising of displacement level, while the torsion energy dissipation capacity decreases.
