The magneto-rheological visco-elastomer (MRVE) is used as a smart core to control the stochastic micro-vibration of a sandwich plate with supported mass. The micro-vibration response of the sandwich plate with MRVE core and supported mass under stochastic support motion excitations is studied and compared to evaluate the vibration suppression capability. The effects of the supported mass and localized magnetic field on the stochastic micro-vibration response of the MRVE sandwich plate are taken into account. The dynamic characteristics of the MRVE core in micro-vibration are described by a non-homogeneous complex modulus dependent on vibration frequency and controllable by applied magnetic fields. The partial differential equations for the coupled transverse and longitudinal motions of the MRVE sandwich plate with supported mass are derived from the dynamic equilibrium, constitutive and geometric relations. The simplified ordinary differential equations are obtained for the transverse vibration of the MRVE sandwich plate under localized magnetic fields. A frequency-domain solution method for the stochastic micro-vibration response of sandwich plates with supported mass is developed based on the Galerkin method and random vibration theory. The expressions of frequency-response functions, response power spectral densities and root-mean-square velocity responses of the plate in terms of the one-third octave frequency band are obtained for micro-vibration evaluation. Finally, numerical results are given to illustrate the large response reduction capacity of the MRVE sandwich plate with supported mass under stochastic support motion excitations, and the influences of MRVE parameters, supported mass and localized magnetic field placement on the micro-vibration response.

As moving away from fossil fuel makes rapid progress, new paradigm has arisen in the power industry area. Developing alternative energy source is progressing actively, the proportion of renewable energy in electricity production is expected to be increased. Because the output of wind farm depends on wind characteristic, minimizing the output fluctuation is a key to keep the power system controllable and stable. Various compensation scheme for stabilizing the output of wind farm has been developed. Considering some requirements such as reaction velocity, controllability, scalability and applicability, energy storage system is one of the effective methods for spreading of renewable energy. In this paper, method of compensating method with forecasting algorithm was simulated, and then the results was analyzed.

In recent years a unique drug delivery system named as the transdermal drug delivery system has been developed which can deliver drug particles to the human skin without using any external needle. The solid drug particles are accelerated by means of high speed gas flow through a shock tube imparting enough momentum so that particles can penetrate through the outer layer of the skin. Different systems have been tried and tested in order to make it more convenient for clinical use. One of them is the contoured shock tube system (CST). The contoured shock tube consists of a classical shock tube connected with a correctly expanded supersonic nozzle. A set of bursting membrane are placed upstream of the nozzle section which retains the drug particle as well as initiates the gas flow (act as a diaphragm in a shock tube). The key feature of the CST system is it can deliver particles with a controllable velocity and spatial distribution. The flow dynamics of the contoured shock tube is analyzed numerically using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). To validate the numerical approach pressure histories in different sections on the CST are compared with the experimental results. The key features of the flow field have been studied and analyzed in details. To investigate the performance of the CST system flow behavior through the shock tube under different operating conditions are also observed.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on sliding mode control is applied to a two-wheeled Welding Mobile Robot (WMR) to track a smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The mobile robot is considered in terms of dynamics model in Cartesian coordinates under the presence of external disturbance, and its parameters are exactly known. It is assumed that the disturbance satisfies the matching condition with a known boundary. To obtain the controller, the tracking errors are defined, and the two sliding surfaces are chosen to guarantee that the errors converge to zero asymptotically. Two cases are to be considered: fixed torch and controllable torch. In addition, a simple way of measuring the errors is introduced using two potentiometers. The simulation and experiment on a two-wheeled welding mobile robot are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the hot air drying characteristics of squash slices depending on the drying conditions (input air velocity, input air temperature, and sample thickness). Methods: The developed drying system was equipped with a controllable air blower and electric finned heater, drying chamber, and ventilation fan. Squash (summer squash called Korean zucchini) samples were cut into slices of two different thicknesses (5 and 10 mm). These were then dried at two different input air temperatures (60 and $70^{\circ}C$) and air velocities (5 and 7 m/s). Six well-known drying models were tested to describe the experimental drying data. A non-linear regression analysis was applied to determine model constants and statistical indices such as the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), reduced chi-square (${\chi}^2$), and root mean square error (RMSE). In addition, the effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) was estimated based on the curve of ln(MR) versus drying time. Results: The results clearly showed that drying time decreased with an increase in input air temperature. Slice thickness also affected the drying time. Air velocity had a greater influence on drying time at $70^{\circ}C$ than at $60^{\circ}C$ for both thicknesses. All drying models accurately described the drying curve of squash slices regardless of slice thickness and drying conditions; the Modified Henderson and Pabis model had the best performance with the highest R2 and the lowest RMSE values. The effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) changes, obtained from Fick's diffusion method, were between $1.67{\times}10^{-10}$ and $7.01{\times}10^{-10}m^2/s$. The moisture diffusivity was increased with an increase in input air temperature, velocity, and thickness. Conclusions: The drying time of squash slices varied depending on input temperature, velocity, and thickness of slices. The further study is necessary to figure out optimal drying condition for squash slices with retaining its original quality.

미생물(微生物)의 부착식(附着式) 성장(成長)을 이용(利用)한 폐수처리(廢水處理)의 이해(理解)를 돕기 위해 미생물막모형(微生物膜模型)을 정립(定立)하고 이의 simulation을 통하여 처리효율(處理効率)과 각종(各種) parameter 사이의 관계(關係)를 살펴보았다. 미생물막모형(微生物膜模型)은 기질(基質)의 침투정도(浸透程度)에 따라 두꺼운 막(膜)과 얇은 막(膜)으로 구분(區分)하고 각(各) 경우(境遇)에 대하여 미생물막내부(微生物膜內部)에서의 기질농도(基質濃度)와 flux를 산정(算定)할 수 있게 구성(構成)되어 있다. 모형(模型)의 정립과정(定立過程)에서 얻어진 무차원상수(無次元常數)인 ${\phi}_1$, ${\phi}_2$, 그리고 $\bar{S}_b$에 의해 기질농도(基質濃度)와 flux가 결정(決定)될 수 있음을 알았으며, ${\phi}_1$의 증가(增加)나 ${\phi}_2$의 감소(減少)에 의해 처리효율(處理効率)이 증가(增加)함을 알 수 있다. 또한 높은 처리효율(處理効率)을 유지(維持)하는 system은 모두 두꺼운 막(膜)에 속하는 것을 알 수 있다. 미생물막표면(微生物膜表面) 근처에서의 유속(流速)을 증가(增加)시킴으로써 두께가 일정(一定)한 막(膜)에 있어서 처리효율(處理効率)을 증가(增加)시킬 수 있다. 하지만 유속(流速)의 증가(增加)로 인해 sloughing이 많아져서 막(膜)의 두께가 감소(減少)하여 새로운 정상상태(定常狀態)로 바뀌게 된다. 현재(現在)까지 유속(流速)과 미생물막(微生物膜)두께사이의 관계(關係)가 정량적(定量的)으로 규명(糾明)되지 못하고 있으므로 새로운 정상상태(定常狀態)에서의 효율(効率)은 명백히 규정지을 수 없다.

로크웰 경도시험 조건 중에서 시간과 관련이 있는 인자들이 경도측정 결과에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 대상 소재는 PE, PP PVC, PMMA이었으며 압입속도, 시험하중 유지시간, 그리고 계기판독 시점 등을 중심으로 시험한 결과 탄성이 큰 소재일수록 이들 인자들의 영향을 크게 받는 것으로 나타났다. 시험에 소요되는 시간 등을 고려하였을 때 최적 시험 조건은 각기 4, 15, 15초 이었으며 이 기준에 따라 순회 비교시험을 실시하였다. 순회 비교시험 결과 고분자소재의 경도를 제대로 측정하려면 부가하중을 제하하고 나서 계기판독 시점인 15초의 시간을 유지할 수 있는 기능이 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 황동 기준편으로 경도시험기를 간접 검증하는 것만으로는 탄성 회복력이 좋은 고분자 소재의 특성 때문에 경도 측정값의 신뢰도를 보증할 수 없는 것으로 나타났다.

기존의 보행분석 연구들은 하지를 하나의 스프링으로 간주하였다. 만약 슬관절 신전을 보조할 수 있는 슬관절 액추에이팅 메커니즘을 개발할 수 있다면 보행에 필요한 탄성-변형률에너지를 혁신적으로 저장-방출할 수 있고, 그 결과 보행 중 하지강성은 더욱 증가할 것이다. 게다가 족관절 액추에이팅 메커니즘까지 추가되어 있다면 슬관절 액추에이터에 의한 과도한 인공하지강성을 능동적이고 적절한 수준으로 보상해주는 기전으로 작동할 것이다. 만약 가속도에 의한 보행속도 증가를 방지하기 위해 인위적 감속통제를 작동시킨다면 불필요한 운동에너지의 방출이 발생되고 하지강성 액추에이터의 실효성은 의심을 받게 된다. 따라서 본 저자는 보행속도를 2개의 세그먼트에 의한 상대 각속도 조절기법을 이용하여 하지강성을 증가시킨다는 기본개념으로 슬-족관절 액추에이터 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 족관절에 슬관절 액추에이팅에 대한 보상기전이 존재하는 경우, 족관절의 보상기전이 중족지절관절 경사각 및 보행속도 변화에 미치는 상호영향을 연구하였다.
