This paper presents an impact control algorithm for reducing the potentially damaging effects by interation of redundant manipulators with their environments. In the proposed control algorithm, the redundancy is resolved at the torque level by locally minimizing joint torque, subject to the operational space dynamic formulation which maps the joint torque set into the operational forces. For a given pre-impact velocity of the manipulator, the proposed approach is on generating joint space trajectories throughout the motion near the contact which instantaneously minimize the impulsive force which is a scalar function of manipulator's configurations. The comparative evaluation of the proposed algorithm with a local torque optimization algorithm with a local torque optimization algorithm without reducing impact is performed by computer simulation. The simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm in reducing both the effects of impact and large torque requirements.

TFT-LCD module with thin, small and layered structure makes its shock analysis very difficult and complicated. As TFT-LCD becomes more thinner, it is more difficult to assure its required shock resistance. Recently, the drop/impact simulation using the commercial explicit dynamic analysis software such as LS-DYNA3D is actively applied to assess the shock characteristics of TFT-LCD. In this study, the effects of analysis parameters and design modifications in the drop/impact simulation are carefully studied. the reliability of the present analysis results can be assured through the experimental verification.

Using the dynamic explicit program NET3D, oblique impact between long rod penetrator and metallic plate was analyzed. Compared with an experiment and AUTODYN-3D analysis result, the accuracy of NET3D program was examined. It was proved that NET3D program could analyze comparatively exactly oblique impact phenomenon between long rod penetrator and metallic plate. The final deformed configuration of penetrator predicted by NET3D program was more close to experimental result than commercial program AUTODYN-3D. But, in order to increase the reliability of NET3D program in the simulation of tensile fracture phenomenon, the additional research is required.

This paper presents the modeling and validation of a pile-driver breech fatigue testing system model to replicate actual high pressure in a large caliber gun barrel. A hysteresis damping function was incorporated in the nonlinear impact force model. Test of real pile-driver breech fatigue testing system had been performed for model validation. Comparison of the experimental result and model simulation during impact were made. Numerical studies were performed to evaluate how the actual chamber pressure pattern in the live firing of gun barrel was affected by parameters' variation. Some of the parameters simulated included input velocity, damping coefficient and stiffness. As a result, a variety of actual chamber pressure pattern could be reproduced and controlled through current simulation model.

The air quality simulation models in wide use for air quality impact assessmetns are reviewed. After an intensive survey and comparative study upon the environmental impact assessment reports submitted to Ministry of Environment during 1990~1998, we could identify the major common problems with the air quality impact assessment procedures. Several remedies are presented here, including use of the screening models applicable to the complex terrain.

Fluid impact tests on plates containing mesh reinforcement and polypropylene fibers were modeled and simulated using explicit finite element analysis software, LS-DYNA. The scabbing dimensions obtained by the experiments and the simulations were compared and crack formations were matched. The objective was to test the accuracy and fidelity of the model and to confirm that damage caused by fluid impact on the plates can be estimated with a reasonable accuracy over a wide range of impact velocity.

When a liquid cargo tank is partially filled with fluid, internal impact loads can be occurred from the vessel's motions. In this study, liquid sloshing problems with a thin top layer of particles with a lighter density than water and the coupling effects of the liquid-sloshing/vessel-motion were investigated in order to reduce the sloshing-induced impact loads. The PNU-MPS (Pusan-National-University-modified Moving Particle Simulation) method for solving the liquid motion inside a tank and the CHARM3D BEM (Boundary Element Method) based time-domain ship motion analysis program for vessel-motion simulation were coupled. From the simulation results, we could see that the floaters seemed to be quite effective at reducing the sloshing impact loads in the case of tank-only sloshing problems, but not as much for the coupling problem with vessel motion.

In the study, numerical simulation on the greenwater impact load of free surface offshore structure in the regular waves using fixed cartesian grid system and Modified Marker-Density (MMD) method were carried out and the results were reviewed. In order to compare numerical simulation and experimental results, the FPSO with the scale ratio of 1/100 model ship with fixed rectangular deck was selected and turbulence characteristic of the flow was considered by applying the Sub-Grid Scale (SGS) in laminar flow. As a result, it is reviewed how the greenwater impact load inflowed from bow in regular headsea wave influence the flow on the deck and the flow characteristic by numerical simulation and the experiment results were compared and reviewed. Based on this study, it would be useful to numerically study the effect of greenwater on offshore structure.

This study is to analyze the impact of automotive body with computer simulation. The total deformation, equivalent strain and strain and principal stress are analyzed respectively in case of front, rear and side impacts. The maximum total deformation of side impact is more than 6 times as large as that of rear impact. The maximum equivalent strain or stress of side impact is more than 4 times as large as that of rear impact. These deformation, strain and stress of front impact are a little more than those of rear impact. The maximum principal stress of side impact is more than 4.5 times as large as that of rear impact. This stress of front impact is a little more than that of rear impact.

The goal of this study drifter is to understand the operating mechanism of a drifter and to suggest a reliable analysis model which can be used for evaluating the drifter's performance from the viewpoint of impact frequency and energy. For this, the working principle of drifter and functions of its main components were analyzed, and a simulation model was developed based on the analysis. The model was validated using experimental tests on a test-bench. A comparative study of simulation and experimental results indicated that the suggested model accurately represents the real drifter system in terms of impact frequency and impact energy per blow.
