In the conventional towing tank, the ordinary towing carriage has a speed barrier which caused not only by the limitation of the length of towing tank but also the limitation of acceleration. Therefore the length of the towing tank should be decided carefully from the planning stage of the towing tank construction. Consequently the acceleration of the towing carriage should be taken less than 0.06g practically to avoid the slip of the wheel on rail. Due to the increasing demand of the high speed experiments on the development of special novel ship, the requirement of the high speed towing carriage is continuously increased recently. When the minimum measuring time of the towing experiment is prescribed as five seconds, the carriage should be accelerated with higher than 0.12 g to get the speed of 18 m/sec even in the towing tank having a length of 400m in length approximately. This means that the requirement of acceleration is bigger than twice of the ordinary practices of carriage acceleration. In such a condition the exerted total power of motor could not converted to traction force for the acceleration of the carriage without slip. To over come these difficulties a pair of horizontal traction wheels are reinforced to each of the ordinary vertical carrier wheel and appropriate suspension system has been devised for the towing tank of super high speed operation. It is believed that the design of novel suspension system adaptable for the high speed acceleration of towing carriage will play a important role as a reference for the remodeling of the towing tank for high speed experiment.

This paper treats the problem of estimating the longitudinal velocity of a braking vehicle using measurements from an accelerometer and wheel speed data from standard anti-lock braking wheel speed sensors. We develop and experimentally test three velocity estimation algorithms of increasing complexity. The algorithm that works the best gives peak errors of less than 3 percent even when the accelerometer signal is significantly biased.

I/An electro-hydraulic transmission having advantages of convenience, safety, simple linking and high power, and an electronic control system were designed and fabricated. In this study, characteristics of the control system were investigated through outdoor tests for evaluation of installation of the system on a combine. Major findings were as followings. 1. Experiment for performance evaluation of the control system was conducted on concrete road. With steering lever in neutral position, driving HST swash plate and left/right wheel speed increased in proportion to driving lever angle. In case of steering control, steering swash plate angle changed in proportion to steering lever angle. This should cause increase in outer wheel speed, but it was observed that HST swash plate was controlled toward neutral to maintain the speed before steering. As a result, speed before steering was maintained despite the change in outer wheel speed by steering HST swash plate angle change. 2. It was observed that the HST system enabled steering with outer wheel maintained at constant speeds while inner wheel speed decreased, which was more stable than conventional mechanical links. In addition, for the selected 5 criteria, experiment showed satisfactory results and it was judged that installation on real vehicle would be feasible. 3. The control system showed response property of appropriate forward/reverse movement and lift/right steering, without causing any problems during experiment on concrete. Result of response property experiment on field operation also showed appropriate control over forward/reverse movement and left/right steering.

In this paper, a theoretical analysis is presented on the mechanics for the side-cut grinding by electrodeposited CBN wheel of a hemispheric type. Each of the grinding force components is calculated by using the geometrical model. It is also presented that experimental results show grinding forces for grinding variable such as wheel speed, feed speed,depth of cut, and grinding wheel positions. The experimental results are found to be in good agreement with those predicted by the analytcal calculation.

When vehicle travelling along the track which has irregularity such as vertical profile, dynamic forces arise at the Wheel/Rail contact patch by wheel/rail interaction. In particular short wavelength irregularities on dipped joint and small stiffness of connecting rail bring about intense wheel/rail dynamic effects at higher speed. In the paper, a new model for dipped joint rail is developed to study dynamic behavior of track. A cusp behavior on dipped joint was defined by its amplitude and decay factor, which was presented by FRA track classes. The result of case study are presented, which show wheel rail contact force in each track classes, train operation speed and bending flexible rigidity ratio of fishplates which are connecting the rail.

Grinding is considered as a very effective machining technology to attain the good surface quality of a components. However, the grinding operation still needs the skill and experience of an operator because of a lack of scientific and engineering principles. Therefore, recent development focus on expert systems which deal with domain specific knowledge in order to solve this problem. This paper describes an expert system for selecting the optimism grinding wheel by using the fuzzy reasoning and operation conditions in grinding. By the system unskilled workers will be able to make use of the knowledge and experience of skilled workers. The system is consist of programs that, (1) selection of the best wheel form among avairable wheel by using fuzzy reasoning, (2) determine wheel depth of cut, feed and wheel speed for grinding, work speed, and dressing condition. The developed system perform in using the CLIPS as a software tool and run under the IBM PC/AT as a hardware tool.

In this paper, a theoretical analysis is presented on the mechanics of the grinding by hemispheric type electroplated CBN wheel. The grinding forces acting on a single grain were calculated from its geometry by assuming the abrasive grain is spherical. Then. the total grinding forces were obtained by estimating the number of acting abrasive grains and the area of contact. The model includes the grinding variables such as wheel speed. feed speed. depth of cut, and grinding wheel positions. Experiments were also carried out to compare with the analytical results. The experimental results were found to be in good agreement with the analytical ones.

The hunting is the natural characteristics of the railway wheelset which is originated from the contact between the conical type wheel profile and rail. The critical speed of rolling-stock is called when the hunting is occurred, and it is closely connected with vehicle stability. The parameters which influence the hunting motion are like wheel profile, primary spring property and wheelset dimension, etc. The studies for these parameters are reported diversely. In this study, we aim to analyze the influence of parameters on hunting with the change of wheel profile produced by wheel wear and material property produce by aging of primary spring. For this, we made a dynamic model for wheelset and vehicle. Using these models, we analyzed the critical speed with the variations of the parameters like as wheel profile and primary spring property and we show the results.

In the spray drying with rotating wheel atomizer of cheese powder, the relationships among variables were analyzed with Response Surface Methodology in which several independent variables such as total solid content, wheel rotation speed, and outlet temperature influenced dependent variables such as particle diameter, moisture content, bulk density, and viscosity of suspended liquid. Significance and correlation were tested according to central composite design. As a results of analyzing the correlations between independent and dependent variables, particle diameter and moisture content of cheese powder were decreased with increasing wheel rotation speed, and bulk density was decreased with increasing outlet temperature. Viscosity of suspended liquid were increased with increasing wheel rotation speed and total moisture content. In correlation among dependent variables, moisture content was proportional to bulk density, and particle diameter was inversly proportional to moisture content and bulk density.
