This paper presents an analytical study that can predict the path-dependent forming limit of anisotropic sheet materials that experience various combinations of strain paths. To predict the forming limit diagrams(FLD), the proposed analytical procedure is performed within the framework of the Marciniak and Kuczynski(M-K) approach by using the Barlat and Lians non-quadratic anisotropic yield criterion and introducing the effect of the existence of a strain gradient over a stretching punch. The predicted path-dependent forming limit of an anisotropic sheet has been compared with the published experimental results. It has been found that the predicted path-dependent forming limits are in good agreement with the experimental data.

The achievement of the optimal condition for the task of an industrial articulated robot used in many fields is an important problem to improve productivity. In this paper, a minimum-time trajectory for an articulated robot along the specified path is studied and simulated with a proper example. A general dynamic model of manipulator is represented as a function of path distance. Using this model, the velocity is produced as fast as possible at each point along the path. This minimum-time trajectory planning module together with the existing collision-free path planning modules is utilized to design the optimal path planning of robot in cases where obstacles present.

To get accurate results, the realistic stress-strain relationships of soils are dependent on a number of factors such as soil types, density, stress levels and stress path. Such attempts are continuously being made by the developement of analytical models for soils incorporating all such factors. Isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests with several stress path for Baekma river sand were performed to investigate parameters characteristics of Lade's single work hardening model dependant on the stress path. Using the computer program based on the regression analysis, the values of parameters for the model were determined. In conclusion, the parameters of Lade's model are little influenced by the stress paths. Though yield criterion parameters ( h, ${\alpha}$a) are much influenced by stress level and stress path, the parameters don't have influence on stress-strain behavior.

The stress-strain relationship of soil is dependent on a number of factors such as soil type, density, stress level and stress path. Th accurate stress-stain relationship can be predict using a constitutive model incorporated all influencing factors. In this study, an isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests with several stress paths were performed on Baekma river sand to investigate parameters characteristics of Lade's single work hardening model depending on the stress path.. Based on test results, the parameters of yield function (h, ${\alpha}$) are not much influenced by stress level and stress path, the these parameters do affect a little bit of stress-strain behavior. The parameters h and ${\alpha}$ are closely related to failure criterion ${\eta}_1$, they can be replaced by failure criterion parament. We also observed that predicted values from the Lade's single hardening constitutive model are well matched with the observed data.

In this paper, a design method of a robust adaptive regulator with feedfoward path based on the explicit criterion minimization is proposed. The convergence speed of parameter estimation is improved by using the stochastic Newton minimization method in the criterion minimization algorithm, and sensitivity derivatives are used in the regulator calculation for improving the robustness of the control system. Trh proposed adaptive regulator is applied to the stable minimum-phase and nonminimum-phase system, the results are shown that control performance and disturbance compensation ability of the regulator are improved. And the choosing method of input penalty is proposed.

It has been reported that cracks in mechanical joints is generally under mixed-mode and there is critical inclined angle at which mode I stress intensity factor becomes maximum. The crack propagates in arbitrary direction and thus the prediction of crack growth path is needed to provide against crack propagation or examine safety. In order to evaluate the fatigue life of cracks in mechanical joints, horizontal crack normal to the applied load and located on minimum cross section is major concern but critical inclined crack must also be considered. In this paper mixed-mode fatigue crack growth test is performed far horizontal crack and critical inclined crack in mechanical joints. Fatigue crack growth path is predicted by maximum tangential stress criterion using stress intensity factor obtained from weight function method, and fatigue crack growth rates of horizontal and inclined crack are compared.

The purpose of this paper is to apply the boundary element method to predict the crack growth path. The quarter point element with traction singularity at the crack tip is applied to compact tension type specimens and two inclined slit problems under compression load. The maximum stress criterion which was originally derived for the crack initiation is extended to the analysis of the crack propagation. The predicted crack paths with 1/4 crack growth increment of initial crack length agree quite well with experimental results. It is found that the computed crack path of the boundary element analysis is not mainly affected by the crack increment length.

During an actual forming operation, a material may undergo considrably large changes in strain path, and these changes can significantly alter the forming limits. So, in this study, modified forming limit curves(FLCs) in complex strain path are determined with specially designed jig to give test specimens with desired prestrains in uniaxial or biaxial deformation mode. In another part of present study, theoretical prediction of FLCs is attempted with MK's theory and Hosford's yield criterion to give forming limit curves in positive minor strain region and with Hill's local necking theory in negative minor strain region. Comparison of these theoretical results with experimental ones will be mentioned for both linear and complex strain path.

In order to review the utility of Lade's single hardening constitutive model, a series of isotropic compression-expansion tests and consolidated drained triaxial tests including as CTC, TC, RTC, and OSP were performed by Baekma river sand with various of stress path. Parameters required in model were determined using these tests. The accuracy of analysis was reviewed by back analysis of test results used to determine the 11 parameters of soil property through the test of each stress path. Also. for verifying the accuracy of prediction for the stress-strain behavior using failure criterion related 9 parameters with correlational equation and constant and yield criterion related parameters h, ${\alpha}$ and ${\eta}_1$, when stress path is different with each other, it has been obtained in the review result of stress path dependent characteristics of the constitutional model through the analyzing results of CTC, TC, RTC, OSP, and fine silica sand tests.

There have been many studies regarding development of autonomous excavation system which is helpful in construction sites where repetitive jobs are necessary. Unfortunately, bucket trajectory planning was excluded from the previous studies. Since, the best use of excavator is to dig efficiently; purpose of this research was set to determine an optimized bucket trajectory in order to get best digging performance. Among infinite ways of digging any given path, criterion for either optimal or efficient bucket moves is required to be established. One method is to adopt work know-how from experienced excavator operator; However the work pattern varies from every worker to worker and it is hard to be analyzed. Thus, other than the work pattern taken from experienced operator, we developed an efficiency model to solve this problem. This paper presents a method to derive a bucket trajectory from optimization theory with empirical CLUB soil model. Path is greatly influenced by physical constraints such as geometry, excavator dimension and excavator workspace. By minimizing a energy function under these constraints, an optimal bucket trajectory could be obtained.
