Planetary gearing is a gear system consisting of one or more planet gears, revolving about a sun gear. While the planetary gear system has many advantages- for example, high power density, large reduction in a small volume, multiple kinematic combinations, pure torsional reactions, and coaxial shafting, it has not been widely used because of its high bearing loads, inaccessibility, and design complexity. It is also necessary to shift several pairs of gear profiles at a same time. Therefore, designing profile shifted planetary gear system is a difficult and know-how dependent job. This study provides a practical solution to design a profile shifted gear system by the procedural design scheme, and proposes a bearing integrated structure of the dual stage profile shifted gear system with a robust output end. A dual stage profile shifted gear system with the bearing integrated structure is manufactured by the proposed design scheme in this study. This gear system is verified that it is good enough to commercialize, because it has high performance with high gear ratio and robust output end against axial and radial directional runouts in a small space.

In this paper, a case study of drivability and bearing capacity of large diameter steel pipe piles at PTT LNG site in Thailand is introduced. The LNG facilities were designed to be founded on steel pipe pile foundations driven into the weathered rock formation overlaid by sand layers. The drivability analyses of open ended pipe piles were carried out using GRL WEAP program and the bearing capacities of the piles were estimated. Dynamic load tests were performed to evaluate end bearing resistance, and it is shown that the measured end bearing resistance is smaller than the calculated end bearing because the plugging does not develop sufficiently in case of large diameter pipe piles.

To analyse the end bearing capacity of a single pile in cohesionless soils, the mode of deformation due to a pile penetration has been intestigated through model pile penetration tests using acetone hardening and resin impregnation technique. A new mode of deformation has been assumed from the experimental results and a new solution compeying with the theory of spherical cal.its expansion has been proposed. The end bearing capacity according to the proposed solution is expressed as the product of the limit spherical cavity expansion pressure multiplied by a col.relation factor. The results has been compared with other solutions based on the theory of cavity expansion. From the comparison, the proposed solution is expected to provide a way to solve the problem of pile bearing capacity prediction based on the theory of cavity expansion which often has been criticized as giving higher value of pile bearing capacity than the actual value.

The load distribution and deformation of rock socketed drilled shafts subjected to axial loads were evaluated by a load transfer approach. The emphasis was laid on quantifying the end bearing load transfer characteristics of rock socketed drilled shafts based on 3D Finite Difference (FD) analysis performed under varying rock strength and rock mass conditions. From the results of FD analysis, it was found that the ultimate unit toe resistance ($q_{max}$) was influenced by both rock strength and rock mass conditions, while the initial tangent of end bearing load transfer curve ($G_{ini}$) was only dependent on rock strength. End bearing load transfer function of drilled shafts socketed in rock was proposed based on the FD analysis and the field loading tests which were performed on weathered rock in South Korea. Through the comparison with the results of the field loading tests, it is found that the load transfer curve by the present study is in good agreement with the general trend observed by field loading tests, and thus represents a significant improvement in the prediction of load transfer behavior of drilled shaft.

Model pile tests in calibration chamber are performed in order to study the two factors that the pile bearing capacity is significantly influenced by. Those factors are the critical depth concept and the scale effect caused by pile diameters. Firstly, the predicted values of end bearing capacity from the various static formulae were compared with the measured ones from model pile tests. Secondly, the critical depth concept and the scale effect were investigated by using two different soil conditions in a series of calibration chamber tests : the one is uniform sand : and the other is weathered granites overlayered by sand. Main results obtained from the model tests can be summarized as follows : (1) The end bearing capacity was increased with pile penetration depth up to penetration ratio of 7 to 8 when the cell pressure is high, and the critical depth was observed in the current chamber tests with uniform sand layer , (2) The predicted end bearing capacities were mostly lager than the measured, and it was found that the differences between the predicted and the measured values became smaller as the pile penetration ratio was increased : (3) The end bearing capacity of the small diameter pile in weathered granites layer was mostly less than that of the larger pile, while in uniform sand layer it was vice.

This study was conducted to find out the rational and appropriate design of drilled shaft. In other words, in order to find out the variation of ultimate bearing capacity according to the change in the support layer of drilled shaft, back analysis was performed using the bi-directional pile load test performed on drilled shaft. Based on the back-analyzed data, numerical analysis of the pile head load was performed, and the ultimate bearing capacity in the target ground was evaluated using the Davisson method. As a result of numerical analysis of one case where the end of the pile was seated on the top of the weathered rock layer, and three cases where the end of the pile was embedded at different locations in the weathered soil, it was found that sufficient ultimate bearing capacity was secured in all cases. In other words, the case where the end of the pile is seated on the top of the weathered rock layer, not embedded the weathered rock, and the drilled shaft embedded into the weathered soil also have sufficient bearing capacity, so it can be used as a support layer for drilled shaft.

For the construction of high-rise structures and the optimized foundation design, the use of the large-diameter PHC pile has increased. Especially, the use of the 600 mm diameter PHC pile has significantly increased. In this study, for the evaluation of the suitability of the current design practice, the 46 dynamic pile load tests, which were carried out in the 600 mm diameter preboring PHC pile, are analyzed. The end bearing capacity is obtained from the end of initial driving test and the shaft capacity is estimated from the restrike test. The allowable capacities estimated by the dynamic load test are compared with those based on the current design practice. The analyses show that the allowable end bearing capacity evaluated by the dynamic pile load test is greater than the design practice in most piles. The allowable shaft capacity, however, is smaller than the design practice in many piles. The higher end bearing capacity and the smaller shaft capacity may result from the improvement of the drilling equipment and the increase in the penetration depth. Thus, the portion of the end bearing capacity in the total capacity increases.

The standard construction manual of the SDA(Separated Doughnut Auger) piling method was proposed so that the resisting capacity of the augered piles could work effectively. 405 dynamic pile load tests and 30 static pile load tests were performed for 265 test piles, which were installed by the SDA piling method in 33 sites in Korea. The results of the pile load tests showed that the end bearing capacity of the SDA augered piles depended on the property of various soil stratums and did not agree with ones estimated by the existing formula based on several standard design codes. On the basis of the pile load test results, four formulas were presented according to bearing stratums to estimate quantitatively the unit end bearing capacity of the SDA augered piles. The formulas for the unit end bearing capacity of piles on soils or weathered rocks were related to N-value given by SPT(Standard Penetration Test), while the unit end bearing capacity on bedrock was suggested to be more than 1500 $tf/m^2$. The presented formulas were compared with the existing formulas, which were presented by several standard design codes to design the augered piles. In order to use correctly the presented formulas, the quality of Standard Penetration Test should be controlled precisely. Also it is desirable to choose a pilot construction site, where both dynamic and static pile load tests are performed.

With the recent concentration of urban populations, the constructions of large structures are increasing, along with the development of foundations for large structures. PHC Piles have been used in many structures ever since Japanese introduced the technology at the end of the 20th century. Recently, many studies on the use of the PHC Pile have been carried out as earth retaining using the merits of PHC piles. In this study, static axial compression tests were conducted on the PHC-W piles constructed as column-type in building underground additional wall using the PHC-W earth retaining wall. The end bearing capacity of pile was calculated using the axial load transfer measurement that was obtained from the static axial compression test result. Since end bearing capacity of the PHC-W pile embedded in weathered rock showed a different behaviour from the conventional PHC pile, the calculation method of end bearing capacity for column-type PHC-W piles would be proposed. The unit ultimate end bearing equation proposed for single and group PHC-W pile embedded in weathered rock is $q_b=13.3N_b$ and $q_b=6.8N_b$.

The present paper is a contribution in characterising end milling process of AISI 52100 ball bearing steel through statistical analyses of variance (ANOVA). The latter has been performed to identify the effect of the cutting parameters on the machined surface roughness and the cutting tool life. Wear measurements have been carried on multilayer coated carbide inserts and the respective surface roughness has been recorded. Taguchi's technique has been adapted to conduct the design experiments in terms of orthogonal arrays according to the cutting parameters (cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut), the type of coating (TiN, TiCN, TiAlN) and lubricating condition. Regression analyses have conducted to the development of simplified empirical models that can be effectively used to predict surface roughness and tool wear in the present milling process.
