Chemical composition, dry matter and cellulose digestibilities and fermentation rates of alfalfa and orchard grass cut at different time were estimated in vitro method and the results summurized as follows: 1. Crude protein, crude fiber cwc and cellulose content of Alfalfa were decreassed as advancing cutting time. Crude protein, crude fiber and cwc content of Orchard grass were decreased as advancing cutting time up to 3 cutting, but crude protein was slightly increased at 4th cutting, crude fiber and cellulose content were higher at 2nd cutting, but decreased thereafter. 2. DM digestibility of Alfalfa was 51.80, 51.86, 52.92 and 59.52% at 1, 2, 3 and 4th cutting time, respectibly, thus slightly increased as advancing cutting time, and cellulose digestibility of Alfalfa was not much different with different cutting time. DM digestibility of Orchard grass was 62.21, 66.10, 60.95 and 66.32% at 1, 2, 3 and 4th cutting time, respectibly, and cellulose digestibility of Orchard grass was slightly increased at 3rd cutting time and then increased at 4th cutting time. 3. Fermentation rate of DM of alfalfa was the highest 1st cutting time (0.83%/hr.) and was not different at 3 and 4th cutting time. Cellulose fermentation rate of Alfalfa was the highest at 1st cutting time (1.29%/hr.), decreased at 2 and 3th and then increased at 4th cutting time.

Ultraprecision cutting of steels with geometrically defined single crystal diamond tools is handicapped by excessive tool wear. This paper presents a new approach to suppress the wear of single crystal diamond tool in cutting of steels. In general, it is said that the wear of diamond tool is caused by chemically reactive wear under high temperature and high pressure conditions. In order to suppress such chemical reactions, the time of contact between the diamond tool and the steel work in cutting was controlled by employing the intermittent cutting method such as fly-cutting. Series of intermittent cutting experiments have been carried out to control the tool-work contact time by changing one cycle of cutting length and cutting speed. The experimental results were shown that the tool wear was much dependent on the contact time regardless of the cutting speed, and that the wear was much suppressed by reducing the tool-work contact time. It is expected that the steels can be successfully cut with a single crystal diamond tool by controlling the contact time.

In modern industry, the machining process is very important for manufacturing various products. More than 80% of machining processes apply rough cutting. The target of this study is to establish the optimal condition of rough cutting using trochoidal motion for improving productivity. For research, the range of cutting conditions is defined by trochoidal motion. The cutting time and tolerance are measured and evaluated according to the cutting conditions of machining. Experimental data are utilized for comparing trochoidal motion and contouring. It is found that the cutting time of trochoidal motion is two times less than that of contouring with optimal cutting conditions. To conclude, trochoidal motion for rough cutting under appropriate cutting conditions improves productivity and shortens processing time significantly.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of the final cutting time and cutting height on the winter survival, regrowth, and carbohydrate reserves in stubble, and early spring yield of orchardgrass-dominated pasture before and after the winter season. The experiment was conducted at the experimental field of the Livestock Experiment Station, in Suwon, from October 1985 to early 1986. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Regrowth of plant after the final cut increased significantly (P<0.05) with plot of the early cutting time (Oct. 10) and high cutting height at the final. For winter survival, cut plant should regrow over 15cm in plant height. Therefore limit cutting time and cutting height were forced to be on Oct. 25 and at 6-9cm, respectively. 2. Total water soluble carbohydrate (TSC) content in stubble after the final cut was not significantly changed by different cutting time and cutting height. 3. The percentage of dead plant after wintering was found to be high with plot of the late cutting time and low cutting height at the final cut (P<0.05). And the correlation between the percentage of dead plant after wintering and final plant height before wintering was significantly negathe (r = -0.728**). 4. Fresh and DM yield at the early spring after wintering were increased in the plot of the early cutting time and high cutting height (P<0.05) at the final cut. And significantly positive correlation was observed between the early spring yield and final plant height before wintering (r = 0.720**).

In recent manufacturing process, the increase of productivity has been attempted by reducing machining time with the increase of cutting force. However, the excessive increase of cutting force can cause tool breakage and have a bad effect on both manufacturing machine and workpiece. Thus, it is necessary to estimate and control the cutting force in real time during the process. In this study, use of disturbance observer is proposed for the indirect cutting force estimation. The estimated cutting force is used for the real-time control of feedrate, making the actual cutting force follow the reference force command. Since the suggested method does not need an expensive sensor like a dynamometer, the method is expected to be used practically. Since the actual cutting force follow the reference force, resulting the reducing of the machining time the increase of productivity are also expected, and the quality of cutting surface has been improved due to the adjusted feedrate. Besides, an actual constant cutting force guarantees the prevention of tool breakage. To show the effectiveness of the suggested cutting force control method, an experimental setup has been made without sensor and applied to several workpieces. Experiments show that the suggested method is effective to cutting force control of a CNC machining center.

H-beam used for stiffening the upper structure of ocean plant is cut in the various shapes. The cutting process of the H-beam is done manually and requires a long time and high cost. Therefore, automation of H-beam cutting is an important task. This research aims to develop a 3-D simulator to build the automatic H-beam cutting system and to determine the optimal cutting method. The automatic H-beam cutting system composes of 6 robots including 2 cutting robots hang to a crane and 1 conveyer. The appropriate system layout for covering the various sizes and types of H-beam was tested and determined using the simulator. The H-beam cutting system uses a hybrid type of plasma and gas cutting because of special cutting shapes of H-beam. The cutting area of each cutting method should be properly divided according to the size and shape of H-beam to shorten the total cutting time. Additionally the collision between a robot and a robot or a robot and H-beam should be avoided. The optimal cutting method for the shortest cutting time without the collision could be found for the various cutting conditions by use of the simulator. 2 simulation samples shows the availability of the simulator to find the optimal cutting method.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of mixed application of earthworm cast and N-fertilizer on dry matter(DM) yield in orchardgrass(Dactylis glomerate L.). Experimental plot were designed by a randomized block design with 3 replications of six different treatments-Control(0:0), 100% earthworm cast(0:100), 3 levels of mixed application(25:75:, 50:50, 75:25) of earthworm cast and N-fertilizer, and 100% N-fertilizer(100:0)based on content (%) of nitrogen. The experiment was carried out from March to October, 1993, on the forage experimental field of Kon-Kuk Univ. in Seoul. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Annual dry matter yield was significantly increased according to increasing of N-fertilizer 2. Dry matter yield for each treatment as cutting time was passing was decreased. However, dry matter yield was slightly increased at 75%, 50%, and 25% mixed application of earthworm cast at the third cutting time than the second cutting time(p<0.05). 3. concerning each treatment per cutting time, dry matter yield was higher at 100% N fertilizer than the other treatments at the first, second, and fourth cutting time except the third cutting time only(p<0.05). And according to decreasing of mixing ratio of N fertilizer, dry matter yield was decreased, too. 4. Dry matter yield of 100% earthworm cast was significantly higher than control at the fourth cutting time(p<0.05).
