The purpose if this research was to improve the pressure distribution on the disk brake pad Not uniform pressure distribution on the disk brake pad generate the unbalance wear of it and the unbalance wear of disk brake pad generate vibration, noise, heat and reduce the braking capacity. For improve the pressure distribution on the pad in this research, upper face of caliper housing finger was cut. Two kinds of caliper which uncut and cut of finger face were compared the stress distribution by FEM analysis and real experiment. Also natural frequency and deforming displacement ware calculated. It was understood that pressure distribution could Improve by cut inside upper face of caliper housing finger.

In order to obtain excellent flatness and surface roughness of glass substrate disk, uniform distribution of abrasives should be important for uniform polishing. We introduced coated-type magnetic abrasives and magnetic field to a lapping for the improvement of surface roughness and removal rate. Polishing properties with the conventional diamond abrasives and the coated-type magnetic abrasives were compared. As a result, the coated-type magnetic abrasives showed small surface roughness and large removal rate by applying magnetic field. And it also was shown that coated-type magnetic abrasives could save the more amount of polishing liquid under the same removal rate than the conventional diamond abrasives can.

According to the manufacturing process of the laminated stator core for an inserted permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM), the iron loss may be different. It is because the mechanical stress imposed to electrical steel sheet is strongly dependent on the manufacturing process. This paper proposes a new iron loss measurement algorithm which utilizes the induced voltage of a search coil and exciting current. The method is effective even when the distribution of magnetic flux density is not uniform along the magnetic flux path as well as uniform. The developed iron loss measurement system is applied to bonded- and embossed-type segmented stator cores of an IPMSM, and the iron losses are quantitatively compared.

We have investigated the ultimate limits of nonuniform grating couplers (NGCs) for optimized fiber coupling to silicon waveguides, compared to uniform grating couplers (UGCs). Simple grating coupler schemes, which can be fabricated in etching steps of the conventional complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers without forming any additional overlay structure, have been simulated numerically and demonstrated experimentally. Optimum values of the grating period, fill factor, and groove number for ultimate coupling efficiency of the NGCs are determined from finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation, and confirmed with experimentally demonstrated devices by comparison to those for the UGCs. Our simulated results indicate that maximum coupling efficiency of NGCs is possible when the minimum pattern size is below 50 nm, but the experimental value for the maximum coupling efficiency is limited by the attainable fabrication tolerance in a practical device process.

To fabricate microsized poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) beads of uniform size and density on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fis, we introduce an electro spraying technique that uses a target electrode applied with an ac electric fid. Using the apparatus and various material properties, we could obtain uniform size PMMA beads which were deposited on the thin PET film. The optical properties, transmittance and light diffusivity of the fis electro sprayed with the PMMA were characterized. The results show that the sprayed beads appear to act as a good optical diffuser, like microlenses. To understand the effect of process variables, applied field conditions and rheological properties, the morphological pictures of the deposited particles were investigated through the optical and scanning electron microscope.

In recently, annealing process of cold rolled sheet tend to change to continuous annealing process for improving qualify, saving yield. In the meantime as demand for various kind and small lot of products has been increasing, batch annealing has been appreciated for its small restriction for the operation. So, we tested on the effect for a hydrogen contents of atmospheric gas at annealing furnace. As a result of several investigation. We confirmed for the following characteristics ; improved productivity, uniform heating, improved surface quality, saving energy. Therefore, the use of hydrogen instead of nitrogen as the protective gas, combined with high convection in batch annealing furnaces, has shown that considerable increases in furnace output and material quality are attainable. Owing to the low density, high diffusion and reducing character of hydrogen, a better transfer resulting in uniform material temperatures and improved coil surfaces can be achieved.

In order to overcome drawbacks of the advanced high strength steel such as inferior formability and large springback, the hot press forming process(HPF) has been being applied for forming of automotive sheet parts. Good formability and dimensional accuracy without springback as well as good crash performance of final products are the advantages of the HPF process. In this work, a method to characterize the mechanical properties of the HPF steel was developed based on the simple tension test at high temperatures and its finite element analysis, while it was applied to obtain strain rate and temperature dependent flow curves of the HPF steel. The final flow curves were represented by utilizing the Johnson-Cook type equation both in uniform and post-uniform deformation regions.

Electric vehicles use lithium-ion battery packs as the power supply, where the batteries are connected in series or parallel. The temperature control of each battery is essential to ensure a consistent overall temperature. This study focused on reducing ohmic heating caused by batteries to realize a uniform battery temperature. The battery spacing was optimized to improve air cooling, and the tilt angle between the batteries was varied to optimize the internal structure of the batterypack. Simulations were performed to evaluate the effects of these parameters, and the results showed that the optimal scheme effectively achieved a uniform battery temperature under a constant power discharge. These findings can contribute to future research on cooling methods for battery packs.

In this study, we chose a flat die to optimize a general die geometry. The optimization was aimed at obtaining a uniform velocity distribution across the exit of the die. For the optimization, the input and output design parameters were randomly computed, and response surfaces were generated to obtain statistical data for the minimum and maximum sensitivities computed during optimization. Subsequently, object functions with constraints were numerically computed to obtain the minimum errors in the velocity difference (i.e., variable "Outp" in this study). Finally, we obtained the candidate optimized dataset. Note that the current numerical computations were simultaneously conducted for an entire extruder, i.e., screw plus die. The numerical outlet velocity distributions in the modified die geometry tended to be much more uniform than the conventional distributions in the current optimization processes for this specific flat die.

In this paper, luminance mapping for uniform color distribution and gamut mapping for maximum chroma reproduction are proposed. In the conventional lightness mapping, the average lightness difference between the two gamut is increased and different color changes in bright and dark regions are also increased. To solve these problems, a lightness mapping is proposed that minimizes the lightness difference of the cusps at each hue angle and produces same color changes in bright and dark regions. Also, chroma mapping that utilize variable anchor point and an anchor point are proposed for maximum chroma reproduction and uniform color change. The proposed algorithm reduce a sudden color change on the gamut boundary of the printer and to maintain a uniform color change during the mapping process. Accordingly, the proposed algorithm can reproduce high quality images with low-cost color devices.
