In this paper, the minimum oil film thickness and the maximum oil film pressure of engine bearings have been analyzed by using the elastohydrodynamic theory and Taguchi's design method as functions of the oil groove width, oil hole diameter, oil hole position, and oil supply pressure. The optimized design of the engine bearing f3r an automotive Diesel engine is very important for supporting a load-carrying capacity due to gas pres-sures from the engine combustion chamber and inertia forces of the piston. The optimized design data of engine bearings indicated that the optimized oil groove width and an oil diameter of a engine bearing are 8mm at the speed of 2,000 rpm for a given 4-cylinder Diesel engine. Thus, the oil groove oil groove and an oil hole for high performances of an engine bearing may be considered as major design parameters compared to other design factors, which are strongly related to the minimum oil film thickness and the maximum oil pressure distribution of the engine oil.

Welding distortion is a current issue in many industrial parts, especially for heavy industry such as shipbuilding, plant industry. The welding process has many processing parameters influencing welding angular distortion such as heat input power, welding speed, gas flow rate, plate thickness and the welded material properties, etc. In this work, the conventional local minimization concept was applied to find a set of optimum welding process parameters, consisted of welding speed, plate thickness and heat input, for a minimum angular distortion. An analytic solution for welding angular distortion, which is based on laminated plate theory, was also applied to investigate and optimize the welding process parameters. The optimized process parameters and the angular distortion for various parametric conditions could be easily found by using the local minimum concept.

The rollers and/or races in cylindrical and tapered roller bearings should be profiled to relieve high edge stress concentrations caused by their finite lengths and misalignment. In this study, a numerical analysis was performed to investigate the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of a Lundberg profile-type cylindrical roller. A finite difference method with fully nonuniform grids and the Newton-Raphson method were used to present detailed EHL pressure distributions and film shapes, as well as the variations in the minimum and central film thicknesses with the profile modification coefficient. In the Lundberg profile, the maximum pressure and minimum film thickness always occurred near the edges. Proper modification of the Lundberg profile considerably increased the minimum film thickness.

Multi-source evaporation is one of the methods to improve the thickness uniformity of thin films deposited by evaporation. In this study, a simulator for the relative thickness profile of a thin film deposited by a multi-source evaporation system was developed. Using this simulator, the relative thickness profiles of the evaporated thin films were simulated under various conditions, such as the number and arrangements of sources and source-to-substrate distance. The optimum conditions, in which the thickness uniformity is minimized, and the corresponding efficiency, were obtained. The substrate was a 5th generation substrate (dimensions of 1300 mm ${\times}$ 1100 mm). The number of sources and source-to-substrate distance were varied from 1 to 6 and 0 to the length of the major axis of the substrate (1300 mm), respectively. When the source plane, the area on which sources can be located, is limited to the substrate dimension, the minimum thickness uniformity, obtained when the number of sources is 6, was 3.3%; the corresponding efficiency was 16.6%. When the dimension of the source plane is enlarged two times, the thickness uniformity is remarkably improved while the efficiency is decreased. The minimum thickness uniformity, obtained when the number of sources is 6, was 0.5%; the corresponding efficiency was decreased to 9.1%. The expansion of the source plane brings about not only the improvement of the thickness uniformity, but also a decrement of the efficiency and an enlargement of equipment.

This paper presents the structural analysis of RIROB(Reactor Inspection Robot). Actually, several analyses such as kinetodynamics analysis, fluid mechanics analysis and structural mechanics analysis etc. should be carried out in the design of RIROB. These analyses are executed through the use of com-puter aided engineering(CAE) systems. The kinetodynamics analysis is carried out using a simple fluid dynamic analysis model for the water flow over the sensor support surface instead of difficult fluid mechanics analysis. Simultaneously the structural mechanics analysis is carried out to obtain the mini-mum thickness of the RIROB housing. The minimum thickness of the RIROB housing is evaluated to be 1.0 ㎝ for the safe design of RIROB. The kinetodynamics analysis of RIROB is performed using ADAMS and the static structural mechanics analysis of RIROB is performed using NISA.

This paper reports on the balance weight effect on the lubrication and friction characteristics of crankshaft system. To determine the main bearing loads, the crankshaft was treated as statically determinate system. Four and eight-balance weight crankshafts were considered, and minimum oil film thickness and friction loss were calculated. The main bearing loads were increased in the four-balance shaft due to the increasing of unbalanced rotating mass at No. 1 and 3 main bearing sides. The minimum oil film thickness of four-balance shaft became thinner than eight-balance, and friction loss was increased.

This paper reports on the starved lubrication for the piston ring. In this analysis, two types of inlet boundary conditions, fully flooded and starved condition, are considered at the leading edge. The inlet position of effective lubrication and squeeze term are obtained by numerically iterative method. The effective lubricated region is reduced due to the starved condition at the inlet. The starved condition at the inlet significantly reduced the minimum oil film thickness(MOFT) at the midstroke of piston, and the friction force is also increased due to the thin oil film thickness. In the starved conditions, the power loss is significantly increased.

In this study, response surface method (RSM) was used in modeling and multi-objective optimization of the parameters of AA5052-H32 in incremental sheet forming (ISF). The goals of optimization were the maximum forming angle, minimum thickness reduction, and minimum surface roughness, with varying values in response to changes in production process parameters, such as tool diameter, tool spindle speed, step depth, and tool feed rate. A Box-Behnken experimental design (BBD) was used to develop an RSM model for modeling the variations in the forming angle, thickness reduction, and surface roughness in response to variations in process parameters. Subsequently, the RSM model was used as the fitness function for multi-objective optimization of the ISF process based on experimental design. The results showed that RSM can be effectively used to control the forming angle, thickness reduction, and surface roughness.

2거더교를 위한 장지간 바닥판의 설계에서 바닥판의 안전성과 사용성을 만족시키면서 두께를 줄여 자중을 최소화하는 것은 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. 이 논문에서는 2거더교를 위한 횡방향 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 바닥판의 설계 최소두께와 배근상세를 안정성, 사용성을 고려하여 제시하였다. 대상 교량은, 실용적인 2거더교를 대표할 수 있는 교량으로, 교량길이 40 m의 단순교이다. 대상교량의 바닥판의 지간을 4 m~12m로 변화시켜 가며 분석하였다. 바닥판의 이방성 거동을 고려하여 최소단면을 일방향 슬래브로 설계하고, 균열폭과 피로강도를 평가하였으며, 처짐제한을 충족시킬 수 있는 최소 수준의 두께와 비교하였다. 연구결과, 피로내구성의 확보를 위해서는 직경 16 mm이하의 철근을 사용하는 것이 좋으며, 지간이 8 m를 넘는 장지간 바닥판은 처짐에 대한 사용성이 두께 결정의 지배적 요소임을 확인하였다. 또한, 현행 도로교 설계기준의 배력 철근량 규정을 적용하면 지간 4 m 이상의 바닥판에서는 지간 3 m 이하의 바닥판에서 기대되는 정도의 교축방향의 구조적 연속성을 확보할 수 없는 것으로 나타났다.

The depth of superstructure is the summation of the height of girders and the thickness of the deck floor. In this study, it is aim to determine the maximum span length of girders and minimum depth of the superstructure of prestressed concrete I-girder bridge. For this purpose the superstructure of the bridge with the width of 10m and the thickness of the deck floor of 0.175m, which the girders length was changed by two meter increments between 15m and 35m, was taken into account. Twelve different girders with heights of 60, 75, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170 and 180 cm, which are frequently used in Turkey, were chosen as girder type. The analyses of the superstructure of prestressed concrete I girder bridge was conducted with I-CAD software. In the analyses AASHTO LRFD (2012) conditions were taken into account a great extent. The dead loads of the structural and non-structural elements forming the bridge superstructure, prestressing force, standard truck load, equivalent lane load and pedestrian load were taken into consideration. HL93, design truck of AASHTO and also H30S24 design truck of Turkish Code were selected as vehicular live load. The allowable concrete stress limit, the number of prestressed strands, the number of debonded strands and the deflection parameters obtained from analyses were compared with the limit values found in AASHTO LRFD (2012) to determine the suitability of the girders. At the end of the study maximum span length of girders and equation using for calculation for minimum depth of the superstructure of prestressed concrete I-girder bridge were proposed.
