Expansion joint has been utilized in many areas including automotive bellows for exhaust system. Usage of expansion joint has been increased due to its inherent flexibility and excellent anti-vibration property. Simple shape of expansion joint is modeled to understand the behavior of joint system. 27 design cases using 3 design factors with 3 levels are constructed by design of experiment. Each case is simulated to find the most influential design factors. Response for this study, maximum stress in the expansion joint, has been used to determine main design factors of joint. Among the 3 design factors, factor B has affected greatly a response in the formation of optimum shape of joint. Also, interaction factor, $A{\times}B$, has also showed its influence to the response of joint. This study showed that design of experiment combined with finite element analysis could be used in the design decision process effectively in the design of expansion joint.

풍력 터빈의 용량이 대형화될수록, 난류성분에 의한 풍력 터빈 구조물의 하중을 최소화시키는 하중완화 제어가 점차 중요해진다. 한번 설치되면 20 년 이상 작동되어야 하는 풍력 터빈 구조물은 끊임없이 바람에 의한 하중에 노출되는데, 이것이 적절하게 제어되지 않으면 풍력 터빈의 회전 반복운동에 의하여 피로파괴에 이르게 될 가능성이 커진다. 본 논문은 NREL 5MW 풍력 터빈을 대상으로 타워의 하중을 저감시키는 제어시스템을 설계하고, 이의 성능을 평가하는 내용을 담고 있다. 타워의 하중 완화제어시스템을 설계하려면 5MW 풍력 터빈의 동적 특성이 먼저 파악이 되어야 하며, 파워 커브를 추종하는 기본 제어시스템의 설계가 선행되어야 한다.

Permanent magnets have recently been considered as device that can be used to control the behavior of mechanical systems. Neodymium magnets, a type of permanent magnet, have been used in numerous mechanical devices. These are permanent magnets made from an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron to form the Nd2Fe14B tetragonal crystalline structure. The magnetic selection, magnet core design and mechanical errors of the magnetic component can affect the performance of the magnetic force. In this study, the coercive force, residual induction, and the dimensions of the design parameters of the magnet core are optimized. The design parameters of magnet core are defined as the gap between the magnet and the core, the upper contact radius, and the lower thickness of the core. The force exercised on a permanent magnet in a non-uniform field is dependent on the magnetization orientation of the magnet. Non-uniformity of the polarization direction of the magnetic has been assumed to be caused by the angular error in the polarization direction. The variation in the magnetic performance is considered according to the center distance, the tilt of the magnetic components, and the polarization direction. The finite element method is used to analyze the magnetic force of an optimized cylindrical magnet.

Spot welding palys a key role in increasing productivity and weight reduction of the final products. This paper proposes a systematic approach on the design of spot weld configuration, dealing with the requried number and location of spot weld joints under the given design parameters, such as the applied loads, lap area, and individual spot weld strength. The optimal design of a spot-welded joint is postulated as a state when the safety factors of all spot weld points (i) are evenly distributed and (ii) reach maximum value. A CAD program is developed to arrange the optimal location of each spot weld based on the derived objective function and constraints. The CAD tool integrates the optimization procedure with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) code through an interface. The interface automatically provides geometrical data and mesh configuration for different spot weld locations to FEA model. It also extracts the transmitted load of each spot weld from the FEA code, and allows the optimization code predict an improved arrangement of spot weld locations. The feasibility of the developed approach is demonstrated by the selected examples.

The procedure for the determination of the residual life of the pressurizer surge line nozzle in the nuclear plant is developed. The design fatigue life for the 1800 $ft^3$ pressurizer surge line nozzle in cast head design is compared with that of Westinghouse stress report, and the percentage difference between two results is less than 9%. The design fatigue life evaluation of the 1000 $ft^3$ pressurizer surge line nozzle in fabricated head design is carried out, and the consuming rate and residual life are estimated using the operating data.

Depending upon the method of the surface generation and the quality of the designed boundary curves, the resulting surfaces may have global or local irregularities in many cases. Thus, it would be necessary for the designer to evaluate the surface quality and to modify the surface. This is very important because the defect of the surface causes the rework of the dies, increasing cost and delivery time significantly. To simulate the reflection line test in the actual production line, a faster algorithm for generating reflection lines is presented. In this paper, among various surface interrogation methods using reflection lines, Blinn-Newell type of reflection mapping is applied to generate the reflection lines on the trimmed NURBS surfaces. The derivation of reflection lines is formulated as a surface-plane intersection problem (Jung 1994) and is solved by surface-contouring techniques. Also, for eliminating the discontinuity of reflection lines due to the configuration of reflection map, a modified reflection map is proposed. An efficient traced contouring technique is utilized for the computational efficiency and proves to be well suited for the real-time quality-assessment task.

Pinions are generally heavy and integrated with a shaft. Thus, fabricating a pinion is a material- and machining-intensive task characterized by low productivity. Contact of the output pinion with a sliding surface or a cloud contact causes loss of power because of friction. Consequently, the output pinion undergoes considerable wear and tear at its ends, which adversely affects the overall transmission efficiency of decelerators. To improve transmission efficiency and extend gear life, an optimum output pinion design is required. To this end, in this study, an output pinion for worm gear decelerators was designed and optimized by means of product verification through prototyping and performance evaluation to improve gear life and productivity. The optimized design was validated and subjected to structural analysis.

In this study, the design of compound smart materials hydraulic pump that can be applied to a small-medium size UAV having a limited space envelope and weight has been conducted. Compound Smart Material Pump(CSMP) proposed in this paper is composed of a pressurize pump and a flow pump for supplying the high pressure and fluid displacement to overcome the disadvantages of the piezoelectric actuator which has a small strain. Though this compound smart material pump has been designed as small size and lightweight as possible, it can sequentially supply the sufficient large flow rate and pressure required for the brake operation. For the design of CSMP, about 2,700 kg (6,000 lb) class fixed wing manned aircraft was selected. Based on the established requirements, the design of the CSMP have been done by strength, vibration, and fluid flow analysis.
