In MHD power generation system, enthalpy of the working gas is convened to electric power directly through expansion in generator channel. It means that electric power can be generated without a moving mechanical linkage such as turbine blades. The principle of MHD generation is based on Faraday'law of induction that eletromotive force(u$\times$B) is generated when the working gas of velocity u flows a channel in which magnetic field of strength(B) exists. In this paper, helium gas seeded with cesium is used as working gas. There are two types of generator in MHD generation; linear type faraday and disk type hall generator. Rogowski coils having the bandwidth of the 100(Hz) ~ 20(kHz) were used for measuring current flowing MHD disk channel. Optimum load resistor value of the MHD generator studied was 2.5[$\Omega$]. Disk type hall generator's generation performance is the main target of this paper, which superiors to linear type Faraday generator in many points. Isentropic efficiency and enthalpy extraction rate of disk type shock tube driven hall generator is discussed here.

In this paper, two kinds of windmill type motors which have a disk shape and a ring shape piezoelectric ceramics were studied. And characteristics of two models were compared with each others. A windmill type ultrasonic motor is composed of a stator, a rotor, and a ball bearing. The stator is made of a piezoelectric ceramics and two metals endcaps. When the piezoelectric ceramics vibrate, displacement of torsonal vibration appear at metal endcaps. The motor with 11.0[mm] diameter was studied by finite element analysis. The voltage of 100[V] was supplied at each model. Resonance frequency of 206.875[KHz] was obtained at the disk type, but ring type was 137.562[KHz]. The maximum torsonal displacement of $1.112[{\mu}m]$ was obtained at the disk type, but ring type was $1.698[{\mu}m]$.

In this study, the fracture phenomena of optical disks are discussed and then some recommendations are presented to prevent the fracture. The fracture occurs when disks have crack on the inner radius of the disks. Since the crack growth and the fracture result from the stress concentration on the tip of the crack, a measure should be taken to overcome the stress concentration. This problem can be resolved by the structural modification of a disk. This study proposes 3 types of improved optical disks, which are robust to the disk fracture due to the high spinning speed of a disk. The first type is a disk reinforced by wire rings, the second type is a disk added by texture fibers, and the third type is a rubber-coated disk.

Recently, the application range of plastic gears is widely expanding by the development of engineering plastics with good mechanical properties. Plastic gears have excellent performances such as light weight, water resistance and vibration absorbing ability for metallic gears. In this study, the optimization of injection molding process was done for the large disk type plastic gears of auto phoropter. Design Of Experiment (Taguchi method) was adopted to find a tendency of molding conditions that influence the flatness of disk type gear. Four main factors for molding conditions were selected based on injection temperature, filling time, packing pressure and mold temperature. Also, Filling, packing and cooling analyses were carried out to evaluate Z directional deflection of large disk type gear by using the simulation software (Moldflow) based on the DOE. From the results, it was found that the injection temperature and packing pressure are the most sensitive parameters for the Z directional deflection of large disk type gears.

In this paper, the pumping performance of the two-stage disk-type drag pump which works in the outlet pressure range from 3 to 0.001 Torr is studied experimentally. The rotational speed of the pump is 24,000rpm, and nitrogen is used as a test gas. The pumping characteristics of various drag pumps are performed. The inlet pressures are measured for various outlet pressures of the test pump. The maximum compression ratios for zero throughput are 1000(two-stage BSC type), 740(helical-type), 90(BSC type) and 85(OSC type), respectively. The ultimate pressure of the two-stage disk-type drag pump is $8.1\times10^6$ Torr.

The loss coefficient of the butterfly valve which allows partial opening of the valve at closed position and is applicable to the small-sized pipe system with the diameter of 1 inch was measured for the variation of the valve disk blockage ratio. Two different types of the valve disk configuration to adjust the blockage ratio were considered. One was the solid type valve disk of which the diameter was changed into the smaller size rather than the pipe diameter, and the other was the perforate type valve disk on which some holes were perforated. The results from two types of valve disk were compared to identify their characteristics in the loss coefficient distributions. The loss coefficient and the controllable angle of the valve disk were decreased exponentially with the decrease of the blockage ratio. In addition, the perforate valve disk had the effect on the higher loss coefficient rather than the solid type valve disk.

Open steel plate girder (OPSG) bridges are the most prevalent railroad bridge type in Korea, constituting about 40% of all railroad bridges. Solid steel bearings, known as line type bearings, are placed in most OSPG railway bridges. However, the line type rigid bearings generate several problems with the bridge's dynamic behavior and maintenance in service. To compare and investigate the dynamic behaviors of line type, spherical and disk bearings, the vertical displacements of each bearing, including fixed and expansion type, under running vehicles are measured and analyzed. The displacements of disk and spherical bearings are measured after replacing the line type bearings with spherical and disk bearings. This study also analyzed dynamic behaviors of bridges. Furthermore, the deformation of the PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) plate that is placed inside of expansion type spherical and disk bearings is measured and its effect on the dynamic behavior of the bridges is discussed. The up-lift phenomenon at the bearings installed for the steel bridges is estimated. The vertical displacements at mid-span of the bridges are compared according to the bearing types. Finally, the 1st mode natural frequencies are estimated, and the relationship to the vertical displacement is discussed.

The control objective in hard disk drives is to move head as fast as possible to target track and position the head over the center of target track in the presence of external disturbances. The external shock or disk clamping error in manufacturing process causes the disk center to deviate from the disk rotation center. The disk shift acts on the control system as disturbance and degrades severely the performance of disk drives. In this paper, we present a new controller that compensates for the periodic disturbances very fast. The disturbance compensator is arranged in parallel with the state feedback controller. To avoid the interference with the state feedback controller, the compensator creates compensation signal without the feedback of system output until steady state. The pulse type controller is included additionally for improving the transient performance due to initial state. Finally, in order to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed compensator. we present some experimental results using a commercially available disk drive.

Recent issues in Optical Disk Drive (ODD) are focused on small size. Blu-ray Disk (BD), using blue laser (405nm wavelength) and high NA (0.85) objective lens. can store 25Gbyte on a conventional 12cm optical disk. Small Form Factor Optical (SFFO) drive uses 3cm disk which can store 1.5Gbyte on a disk. This kind of Small Form Factot Optical (SFFO) drive correspond to PCMCIA type memory (Compact Flash or Micro Drive). Preferably, Optical Disk has relatively low cost of the storage media per Byte rather than PCMCIA type memory. To make Small Form Factor Optical (SFFO) drive. optical pickup and its component must be miniaturized. Miniaturization of the component needs new concept of Optical Pickup. This paper is focused on two main subjects. One is Objective Lens design which can be manufactured on a wafer, and the other is optical path design of the pickup which has 2mm thickness.
