  • This paper describes a turnout without movable parts for magnetically levitated vehicles with hybrid magnets, which have been studied by the authors in place of streetcars. Their low construction cost and low maintenance is key to their practical use. Magnetic levitation systems using forces of attraction can generate guidance force automatically, but the damping force against lateral motion is negligible. However, the lateral damping characteristic was improved by using divided iron type magnets and rails. Using this turnout without movable parts will facilitate smooth direction switching.

  • The factory under this study consists of mixed-model assembly lines and workcenters which provide parts to the main lines. Parts produced by the workcenter have different specifications for different product models. The workcenters fabricate parts in batches, and they are divided into two types. A type 1 center supplies parts only to the main line that is designated to the center while type 2 center provides parts to all the main lines. The purpose of this study is to develop a scheduling scheme for the workcenter, and the main objective of the schedules is to provide parts for the main lines without delay. The facts that make the scheduling challengeable are that 1) the different models existing together on a main line request different parts, 2) the spaces for part inventories are limited and 3) set up times are sequence dependent and long in some cases. This study presents developed scheduling schemes for the type 1 center and explains the scheduling and control structure used.

  • This paper covers topics related to the investigations for the problem of sensorless vibratory orienting of polygonal parts with high probability through dynamic simulation. The author's program for mechanical systems with changing topologies was experimentally validated and was used as a simulation and design tool for motion behaviors of the vibratory parts-orienting system in the dynamic environment. A flat level vibrating bar is proposed as a means of orienting parts. Dynamic manipulation, in which a part is repeatedly caught and tossed by the bar without sensing, forms the fundamental manipulation strategy. This paper presents how to plan vibratory manipulation strategies that can orient a small rigid polygonal part using interaction between the part and the vibrating bar without requiring sensing. The planned motion strategies have been experimentally validated to show how the dynamic simulation can be used to find favorable vibration parameters for a given part without knowledge of their initial orientations.

  • This article develops model of the nonstationary state behavior of the multiechelon spare parts provisioning systems. This study is concerned with a problem of determining the near optimal requirements level of the spare parts, especially Concurrent Spare Parts(CSP). CSP is supplied with the procurement of new equipment system, and is used to sustain the equipment without resupply during the initial coverage period. We consider this situation as a multiechelon inventory model with several bases and one depot. And we assume an equipment system which consists of many types of parts would grounded if one of the parts fail. Also this multiechelon CSP problem is considering the nonstationary poisson failure process and nonstationary exponential repair process in a dynamic environment. We develop an efficient computational procedure to find the near optimal number of spare parts minimizing the total expected cost, while achieving the required system availability. Finally we present a simple example of suggested method.

  • During the past two decades, Metal Injection Molding(MIM) has become a very competitive technology to fabricate small, precise and complex-shaped parts in large quantities. In this research, the applicability of MIM technology in the mass-production of the high precision fuze parts to save manufacturing cost was investigated. The water-atomized 17-4PH stainless steel powder, one of the best corrosion-resistant high strength materials, was injection-molded into real-shape fuze part and flat tensile specimens. The injection-molded parts were thermally debound in hydrogen gas flow without solvent extraction. Sintering of the debound parts was carried out in vacuum at temperatures ranging from $1150^{\circ}C$ to $1370^{\circ}C$. The sintering behavior, mechanical properties, dimensional precision, corrosion resistance of the MIMed 17-4PH stainless parts were investigated. It was found that almost all the properties of the MIMed parts were comparable to those of the mechanically machined parts. Also, actual military field tests using both MIMed and mechanically machined fuze parts were performed as well and were found to be very successful.

  • The effect of Post Weld Heat Treatment(PWHT) of RE36 steel for marine structure was investigated with parameters such as micro-vickers hardness, corrosion potential and corrosion current density of weld metal(WM), base metal(BM) and heat affected zone(HAZ), and both Al alloy anode generating current and Al alloy anode weight loss quantity etc. Hardness of post-weld heat treated BM, WM and HAZ is lower than that of As-welded condition of each region. However, hardness of HAZ was the highest among those three parts regardless of PWHT temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to PWHT temperature. The amplitude of corrosion potential difference of each other three parts at PWHT temperature $550^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ are smaller than that of three parts by As-welded condition and corrosion current density obtained by PWHT was also smaller than that of As-welded condition. Eventually, it was known that corrosion resistance was increased by PWHT. However both Al anode generating current and anode weight loss quantity were also decreased by PWHT compare to As-welded condition when RE36 steel is cathodically protected by Al anode. Therefore, it is suggested that the optimum PWHT temperature with increasing corrosion resistance and cathodic protection effect is $550^{\circ}C$.

  • This research proposes the method to develop the recommendation system of automobile parts using task ontology technology. The proposed intelligent recommendation system is designed to learn the assembly process of automobile parts and the automobile parts are composed by ontology method for the recommendation of the parts. Using hierarchical taxonomy based on is-a relationship, the relationship between each part that makes up automotive engine was set. Each part has each different weighted value according to the knowledge of automobile experts. The weighted value is created by the number of selection that the users of the automobile recommendation system select while using the system and the final value calculated by the multiplication of the weighted value, which is recorded within the system. As a result, the users can easily identify which factor in which part is important by the output in the order of the priority. The intelligent recommendation system for automobile parts is a system to inform of the assembly, the usage and the importance of automobile parts without any specialized knowledge by expressing the parts that are closely related with the applicable parts when selecting any part on the basis of the generated data for the automobile parts that are difficult to access by users.

  • In Rapid Prototyping process, the time required to build multiple prototype parts can be reduced by packing several parts optimally in a work volume. Interactive arrangement of the multiple parts is a tedious process and does not guarantee the optimal placement of all the parts. In this case, packing is a kind of 3-D nesting problem because parts are represented by STL files with 3-D information. 3-D nesting is well known to be a problem requiring an intense computation and an efficient algorithm to solve the problem is still under investigation. This paper proposes that packing 3-D parts can be simplified into a 2-D irregular polygon nesting problem by using the characteristic of rapid prototyping process that the process uses 2-dimensional slicing data of the parts and that slice of the STL parts are composed of polygons. Our algorithm uses no-fit-polygon (NFP) to place each slice without overlapping other slices in the same z-level. The allowable position of one part at a fixed orientation for given parts already packed can be determined by obtaining the union of all NFP's that are obtained from each slice of the part. Genetic algorithm is used to determine the order of parts to be placed and orientations of each part for the optimal packing. Optimal orientation of a part is determined while rotating it about the axis normal to the slice by finite angles and flipping upside down. This algorithm can be applied to any rapid prototyping process that does not need support structures.

  • The effect of post-weld heat treatment(PWHT) of SCM440 steel was investigated with parameters such as micro-Vickers hardness, corrosion potential, polarization behaviors, galvanic current, Al anode generating current and Al anode weight loss, etc. Each hardness of three parts(HAZ, BM, WM) by PWHT is lower than each of as-welded parts. However, hardness of WM area was the highest among those three parts in case of both PWHT and as-welded. Corrosion potential of WM part was the highest among those three parts and WM area was also acted as cathode without regard to PWHT. The magnitude of corrosion potential difference among three parts by PWHT was larger than that of three parts of as-welded, and corrosion current by galvanic cell of these three parts by PWHT was also larger compared to as-welded. Therefore, it is suggested that corrosion resistance property of SCM440 steel is decreased by PWHT than as-welded. However, both Al anode generating current and anode weight loss were also increased by PWHT compared to as-welded when SCM400 steel is cathodically protected by Al anode.
