One of the most important steps to determine the blank shape and dimensions in deep drawing process is to calculate the surface area of the product. In general, the surface area of axisymmetric products is calculated by mathematical or graphical methods. However, in the case of non-axisymmetric products, it is difficult to calculate the exact surface area due to errors as separated components. Fortunately, it is possible for elliptical products to recognize the geometry of the product in the long side and short side by drafting in another two layers on AutoCAD software. So, in this study, a surface area calculating system is constructed for a design of blank shape of deep drawing products. This system consists of input geometry recognition module and three dimensional modeling module, respectively. The suitability of this system is verified by applying to a real deep drawing product. The system constructed in this study would be very useful to reduce lead time and cost for determining the blank shape and dimensions.

SMSC(Seoul Metropolitan Subway Corporation) is substantially taking the core role of mass transit system in Seoul Metropolitan area. When it was built, the design had challenged to sharp curved tracks less than 250m radius considering the protection of buildings and cultural properties as well as the connection to ground roads. Such circumstances have required a certain extent of slack in track geometry and therefore led to the construction of ballasted track with wooden sleepers. However, the dynamic force from running on sharp curved track has caused the misalignment and abnormal failure of track geometry, and it has resulted in a frequent maintenance and repair works which require a lot of cost and manpower. In this paper, we present the construction case of maintenance-free track system by using of concrete sleeper and elastic rail fastening system to ensure the safety of both passengers and trains, and to contribute the effective maintenance for track facilities of SMSC.

위성을 이용한 측위 시스템인 광역위성항법시스템(GNSS : Global Navigation Satellite System)은 측량 및 항법 등에 정확한 위치, 속도 그리고 시간 정보를 제공함으로써 위치결정의 중요한 도구가 되어왔다. 미 국방성에 의해 개발되어 운용되고 있는 범세계적위치결정시스템인 GPS는 GNSS 시장에 독점적인 존재이므로, GNSS 사용자는 GPS에 의존할 수 밖에 없는 상황이다. 이런 독점 상황을 극복하기 위하여 러시아, 유럽 그리고 일본은 독자적인 위성항법시스템을 개발하기 시작하였다. 특히 유럽의 Galileo 시스템은 2008년 발사 목표로 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 위성궤도를 생성하고 분석할 수 있도록 제작한 GIMS2005 프로그램을 이용하여 차세대 GNSS인 Galileo 시스템을 GPS와 비교 분석함에 있다. 본 실험은 GPS 단독 처리의 한계와 GPS/Galileo 결합 시스템의 이점을 인식할 수 있게 한다. 기하구조 분석은 가시위성수, 정밀도 저하율, 내부 신뢰도 그리고 외부 신뢰도를 GPS 단독 처리와 비교하여 분석된다.

This paper describes computer-aided forging design for rib/web shaped parts. In manufacturing a part by means of forging process, the first step is to design the forging. This is done by modifying the given machined part geometry according to the requirements of the forging process. Traditionally, this is done by experienced forging designers using empirical forging design guidelines. Generally, it would be neither possible nor practical to develop a system which encompasses the design of all types of forgings. Accordingly, forging design can be simplified by considering critical two dimensional cross sections of the machined part geometry. This system is composed of three modules(process variable decision module, forging design module and redesign module) and each module is carried out in regular sequence. In the process variable decision module, first of all, the undercut is checked and modified, and then deep recesses and holes difficult to forge are eliminated. Also parting line, forging plane, forging plan view area, forging weight and maximum size(maximum height or width)are determined. In the forging design module, the magnitude of various allowances, draft angle, minimum web thickness, corner and fillet radius are determined and then geometry modification is performed. Finally, since the design rules and databases used in this system are based on parameters of the forging geometry, such as the trimmed forging plan area, forging weight, forging maxmum size, plausible estimates need to be made for these parameters. Therefore, in the re-design module, the design process is iterated until a satisfactory forging is obtained.

The accumulated know-how and trial-and-error procedures are known as the best ways to determine blank shape and dimensions. One of the most important steps to determine the blank shape and dimensions in deep drawing process is to calculate the surface area of the product. In general, the surface area of products is calculated by mathematical or 3-D modeling methods. A blank design system is constructed for elliptical deep drawing products to recognize the geometry of the product in the long side and short side by drafting in another two layers on AutoCAD software. This system consists of input geometry recognition module, 3-D modeling module and blank design module, respectively. Blank dimension of three types is determined by the same area, which was acquired in 3-D modeling module. The suitability of this system is verified by applying to a real deep drawing product.

One of the important open problems in modeling plants is the extension of subdivision algorithms to branching structures. Most of the applications use the concept of L-system to produce branching structures as a sequence of lines and apply the subdivision scheme to appear as curves. In this paper, we explain how L-systems can be modified to produce branching structures. This is also very useful for generating the geometry of various shapes. The proposed technique, called an adaptive L-System, describes branching forms and leaves by making local curve without applying the subdivision steps. Advantages of the suggested algorithm over previous techniques are given. Validation of the algorithm are discussed, analyzed and illustrated by some experimental results.

Integrating a 3D solid modeler with a general purpose FEM code, an automatic nonlinear analysis system of the 3D crack problems has been developed. A geometry model, i.e. a solid containing one or several 3D cracks is defined. Several distributions of local node density are chosen, and then automatically superposed on one another over the geometry model by using the fuzzy knowledge processing. Nodes are generated by the bucketing method, and ten-noded quadratic tetrahedral solid elements are generated by the Delaunay triangulation techniques. The complete finite element(FE) model generated, and a stress analysis is performed. In this system, burden to analysts fur introducing 3D cracks to the FE model as well as fur estimating their fracture mechanics parameters can be dramatically reduced. This paper describes the methodologies to realize such functions, and demonstrates the validity of the present system.

Catenary and Pantograph are a power supply devices for electric trains and shall be steadily contacted. Rail catenary must be installed precisely and managed for stable train operations. But external factors such as weathers, nature, etc., or aging affect catenary geometry. Changed catenary height causes high voltage spark or instant electric disconnection. Big spark and disconnection damage pantograph shoe and catenary coating and might interrupt rail operations. To prevent a big scale spark or electric disconnection catenary maintenance shall be required with catenary geometry measurement systems. In this paper, we describe the development of catenary height and stagger measurement system. The catenary height and stagger measurement system uses Acuity company's AR4000 Range Finder for distance measurement and AccuRange Line Scanner for degree measurement. This system reports suspicious overhead line sections with excessive height and stagger variance.

In this paper, a steering control system for the path tracking of autonomous vehicles is described. The steering control system consists of a path tracker and primitive driver. The path tracker generates the desired steering angle by using the look-ahead distance, vehicle heading, and a lateral offset. A method for applying an autonomous vehicle to path tracking is an advanced pure pursuit method that can reduce cutting corners, which is a weakness of the pure pursuit method. The steering controller controls the steering actuator to follow the desired steering angle. A servo motor is installed to control the steering handle, and it can transmit the steering force using a belt and pulley. We designed a steering controller that is applied to a proportional integral differential controller. However, because of a dead band, the path tracking performance and stability of autonomous vehicles are reduced. To overcome the dead band, a dead band compensator was developed. As a result of the compensator, the path tracking performance and stability are improved.
