The coating N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) on gold surfaces may be used to design the distribution of either gold particle adsorbed to the $ZrO_2$ surface or vice versa by adjusting the electrostatic interactions. In this study, it was performed to find out electrostatic properties of the NAC-coated-gold surface and the $ZrO_2$ surface. The surface forces between the surfaces were measured as a function of the salt concentration and pH value using the AFM. By applying the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory to the surface forces, the surface potential and charge density of the surfaces were quantitatively acquired for each salt concentration and each pH value. The dependence of the potential and charge density on the concentration was explained with the law of mass action, and the pH dependence was with the ionizable groups on the surface.

We consider the robust trajectory tracking control problem for a skid steering mobile robots. A dynamic model is derived accounting for the effects of wheel skidding. The control design utilizes the dynamic feedback linearization techniques, so as to obtain a predictable behavior for the instantaneous center of rotation thus preventing excessive skidding. The additive controller using the sliding mode type is then robustified against the unmodelled dynamics and parameter uncertainty. Simulation results show the good performances under excessively uncorrected estimations of the longitudinal forces and the lateral resistive forces caused by the skidding of the wheels in tracking trajectories.

The cutting automation of boat's wooden pattern is strongly required to improve the productivity and quality of boats in leisure boat industry. This paper is concerned with the development of wooden pattern machining technology by the machining center. The leisure boat is designed with a 3 dimensional design s/w. The NC cutting data are generated in a CAM s/w and are verified using verification s/w. The cutting forces are monitored to analyse the cutting process. The surface characteristics of machined surface are investigated at various cutting conditions such as spindle speed, feed speed, the cutting direction of wood, and wood material.

R/C columns, one of the main structural members of reinforced concrete structures, usually sustain the axial forces of combined dead loads and live loads. When subjected to lateral loads, however, they are repeatedly subjected to bending moment, shearing forces and brittle failure such as shear failure can occur. This failure mode is not desirable and extra reinforcement is usually needed to induce a ductile failure. The design equation which is used to evaluate the maximum shear strength of a R/C column is still unsatisfactory. The objective of this study was, therefore, to evaluate the hysteretic strengthening effect and the maximum shear strength of R/C columns strengthened using carbon fibers on the seismic performance of the R/C columns under anti-symmetrical by acting moment. According to this study, it may be suggested that the shear of the strengthened R/C column were adequate to induce ductile failures.

This paper proposes an error compensation method that improves accuracy with geometry information of injection molding parts. Geometric information can give an improved accuracy in reverse engineering. Measuring data can not lead to get accurate geometric model, including errors of physical parts and measuring machines. Measuring data include errors which can be classified into two types. One is molding error in product, the other is measuring error. Measuring error includes optical error of laser scanner, deformation by probe forces of CMM and machine error. It is important to compensate these in reverse engineering. Least square method(LSM) provides the cloud data with a geometry compensation, improving accuracy of geometry. Also, the functional shape of a part and design concept can be reconstructed by error compensation using geometry information.

Dynamic model of the Korea standardized rubber-tired AGT light rail vehicle, and boundary conditions between vehicle and infrastructures (running track, guidance rail) were defined to analyze vehicular vibration behaviors occurred at the worst condition for straight running track. Using the commercialized software RecurDyn, resultant forces and vibration accelerations of car body and bogies were analyzed. Based on the Korea performance test criteria for urban transit, vertical and lateral vibration of car body were calculated and evaluated as wearing condition of guide wheels. And resultant forces between bogie guidance frame and guide rail in straight running track were analyzed. As the results, the Korea standardized rubber-tired AGT light rail vehicle satisfied the performance criteria and design requirement .

This paper describes the development of a precision 3-component load cell with plate beams which may be used for measuring forces Fx, Fy and moment Mz simultaneously in industry. The equations to predict the bending strains on the surface of the beams under forces or moment are derived, the attachment location of strain gages of each sensor is determined, and 3-component load cell is carried out. It reveals that the rated strain calculated from the derived equations are good agreement with the results from Finite Element Method analysis.

This work presents some analytical and numerical results of a dynamic analysis of the dimensionless 2-D sheet flight equations. Two empirical models for aerodynamic forces and moments are used and compared. Results show that the initial condition of rest is always unstable, and for long times three distinct flight regimes are possible, depending on the initial angle of attack, the Tachikawa number, Ta (in fact, the parameter chosen was its inverse, ${\Omega}$), and a mass ratio ${\Phi}$. The final orbits in the velocity space and their maximum kinetic energy are compared with a theoretical asymptotic state of the motion equations, and some design considerations are proposed.

An effective cartesian coordinate model is presented to control a robot motion along a prescribed timebased hand trajectory in cartesian coordinates and to provide an adaptive feedback design approach utilizing self-tuning control methods without requiring a detailed mathematical description of the system dynamics. Assuming that each of the hybrid variable set of velocities and forces at the cartesian coordinate level is mutually independent, the dynamic model for the cartesian coordinate control is reduced to first-order SISO models for each degree of freedom of robot hand, including a term to represent all unmodeled effects, by which the number of parameters to be identified is minimized. The self-tuners are designde to minimize a chosen performance criterion, and the computed control forces are resolved into applied joint torques by the Jacobian matrix. The robustness of the model and controller is demonstrated by comparing with the other catesian coordinate controllers.

In the magnetic fluid linear pump, the pumping forces and pumping speed mainly depend on the current patterns. In this research, a new design to reduce the discontinuities of the pumping forces of the MFLP was studied. Continuous pumping of the newly designed MFLP by using AC current increases pumping efficiency and reduces the pumping force. Forming shapes of the magnetic fluid at the intermediate state were computed and compared to measurement. Since the back flow of the fluid is reduced remarkably, 4 yoke's AC driving is more efficient than 7 yoke's DC driving. The size, weight and pumping discontinuity are also reduced.
