A successful blade design must satisfy some criterions which might be in conflict with maximizing annual energy yield for a specified wind speed distribution. These criterions include maximizing power output, more resistance to fatigue loads, reduction of tip deflection, avoid resonance and minimize weight and cost. These criterions can be satisfied by modifying the geometrical parameters of the blade. This study is dedicated to the aerodynamic assessment of a 20 kW horizontal axis wind turbine operating with two possible airfoils; that is $G{\ddot{o}}ttingen$ 413 and NACA 2415 airfoils (the Gottingen airfoil never been used in wind turbines). For this study parameters such as chord (constant, tapered and elliptic), twist angle (constant and linear) are varied and applied to the two airfoils independently in order to determine the most adequate blade configuration that produce the highest annual energy output. A home built numerical code based on the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) method with both Prandtl tip loss correction and Glauert correction, X-Foil and Weibull distribution is developed in Matlab and validated against available numerical and experimental data. The results of the assessment showed that the NACA 2415 airfoil section with elliptic chord and constant twist angle distributions produced the highest annual energy production.

The capabilities of the near-field scanning optical microscope (NSOM) for obtaining high resolution lateral topographical images as well as for mapping the spectroscopic and optical properties of a sample below the diffraction limit of light have made it an attractive research field for most researchers dealing with optical characteristics of materials in nano scales. The apertured NSOM technique involves confining light into an aperture of sub-wavelength size and using it to illuminate a sample maintained at a distance equal to a fraction of the sub-wavelength aperture (near-field region). In this article, we present a setup for developing NSOM using a cantilever with a sub-wavelength aperture at the tip. A single laser is used for both cantilever deflection measurement and near-field sample excitation. The laser beam is focused at the apex of the cantilever where a portion of the beam is reflected and the other portion goes through the aperture and causes local near-field optical excitation of the sample, which is then raster scanned in the near-field region. The reflected beam is used for an optical beam deflection technique that yields topographical images by controlling the probe-sample in nano-distance. The fluorescence emissions signal is detected in far-field by the help of a silicon avalanche photodiode. The images obtained using this method show a good correlation between the topographical image and the mapping of the fluorescence emissions.

Based on the theory of piezoelasticity, the static performance of a piezoelectric bilayer cantilever fully covered with electrodes on the upper and lower surfaces is studied. Three models are considered, i.e., the sensor model, the driving displacement model and the blocking force model. By establishing suitable boundary conditions and proposing an appropriate Airy stress function, the exact solutions for piezoelectric bilayer cantilevers are obtained, and the effect of ambient thermal excitation is taken into account. Since the layer thicknesses and material parameters are distinguished in different layers, this paper gives unified solutions for composite piezoelectric bilayer cantilevers including piezoelectric bimorph and piezoelectric heterogeneous bimorph, etc. For some special cases, the simplifications of the present results are compared with other solutions given by other researches based on one-dimensional constitutive equations, and some amendments have been found. The present investigation shows: (1) for a PZT-4 piezoelectric bimorph, the amendments of tip deflections induced by an end shear force, an end moment or an external voltage are about 19.59%, 23.72% and 7.21%, respectively; (2) for a PZT-4-Al piezoelectric heterogeneous bimorph with constant layer thicknesses, the amendments of tip deflections induced by an end shear force, an end moment or an external voltage are 9.85%, 11.78% and 4.07%, respectively, and the amendments of the electrode charges induced by an end shear force or an end moment are both 1.04%; (3) for a PZT-4-Al piezoelectric heterogeneous bimorph with different layer thicknesses, the maximum amendment of tip deflection approaches 23.72%, and the maximum amendment of electrode charge approaches 31.09%. The present solutions can be used to optimize bilayer devices, and the Airy stress function can be used to study other piezoelectric cantilevers including multi-layered piezoelectric cantilevers under corresponding loads.

There are recently increasing needs for precision XYZ-stage in the fields of nanotechnology, specially in AFMs(Atomic Force Microscope) and STMs(Scanning Tunneling Microscope). Force measurements are made in the AFM by monitoring the deflection of a flexible element (usually a cantilever) in response to the interaction force between the probe tip and the sample and controlling the force neasyred constant topography can be obtained. The power of the STM is based on the strong distance dependence of the tunneling current in the vacuum chamber and the current is a feedback for the tip to trace the surface topography. Therefore, it is required for XYZ-stage to position samples with nanometer resolution, without any crosscouples and any parasitic motion and with fast response. Nanometer resolution is essential to investigate topography with reasonable shape. No crosscouples and parasitic motion is essential to investigate topography without any shape distortion. Fast response is essential to investigate topography without any undesirable interaction between the probe tip and sample surface ; sample scratch. To satisfy these requirements, this paper presents a novel XYZ-stage concept, it is actuated by PZT and has a monolithic flexible body that is made symmetric as possible to guide the motion of the moving body linearly. PZT actuators have a very fast response and infinite resolution. Due to the monolithic structure, this XYZ-stage has no crosscouples and by symmetry it has no parasitic motion. Analytical modeling of this XYZ-stage and its verification by FEM modeling are performed and optimal design that is to maximize 1st natural frequencies of the stage is also presented and with that design values stage is manufactured.

본 논문에서는 지능 구조물 작동기의 성능 향상을 위해 압전 단결정을 적용한 압전 복합재료 작동기 LIPCA-S2를 설계, 제작하고 성능을 측정하였다. 외팔보 형태로 고정된 LIPCA-S2의 끝단 변위를 예측하기 위하여 공급 전압에 대한 압전 재료 작동층의 변형을 기반으로 곡률 변화 예측 모델을 적용하였으며, 실제 작동기의 성능을 측정하여 두 결과를 비교하였다. 외팔보 상태의 LIPCA-S2의 끝단 처짐에 대한 결과를 비교하였을 때, 예측 결과가 측정 결과에 비하여 4배 정도 크게 예측되었음을 확인하였다. 각 결과의 차이는 LIPCA-S2 내부에 삽입된 압전 단결정에 작용하는 압축 응력에 대하여 압전 단결정 특성이 영향을 미치는 것이라 가정하여, LIPCA-S2를 제작하는 과정에서 발생된 잔류 응력과, 작동층에 전압을 가하며 작동기를 구동했을 때 발생하는 응력 변화를 고전 적층 이론을 통해 계산하였다. 박판 압전 단결정에 평면 방향으로 압축 응력이 변할 때, 압전 변형상수의 변화와 탄성계수의 변화를 측정하였고, 이러한 특성 변화를 고려한 새로운 예측 모델을 활용한 예측 결과는 실제 측정값에 근접함을 알 수 있었다.

병변이 있는 판막을 대체하기 위하여 사용되는 인공판막으로는 기계식 판막, 고분자 판막 등이 있는데 고분자 판막이 기계식보다 항혈전성이 우수하므로 폴리우레탄을 이용하여 많이 연구되고 있다. 고분자 판막에는 단엽식, 삼엽식, 젤리피쉬식 등으로 제작되어 연구되고 있는데 이중 단엽식 판막은 제작이 가장 간편하고 심실내 씻김현상이 실제와 유사하며 혈류의 소용돌이 현상을 감소시킨다고 보고되고 있다. 혈압 강하를 감소시키기 위하여 고분자 판막의 두께를 얇게 할때 판막이 프레임 위 정상접촉 위치로 부터 탈구현상이 발생한다. 이것을 방지하기 위하여 2개의 지지대를 설치하여 판막의 수직변위를 최소로 하는 지지대 최적위치를 구하고, 그때 판막 끝의 수평 변위 및 판막에서의 응력분포상태를 구한 결과 최적위치는 지지대에 의해 나눠지는 3영역의 폭이 각각 6.2mm, 4.7mm, 5.1mm 일때 이고, 그때 최대 처짐이 0.19mm, 수평 최대변위가 0.047mm 이고 최대 주응력이나 등가응력의 최대치는 판막이 지지대가 접착되는 부위와 비접착 부위의 불연속점에서 발생하여 이 값들은 판막 각 영역의 폭이 커지면 증가함을 알았다.

The elongation of contact length on the line of action is considered with particular reference for roll forming of gears, and for dynamic behavior of the tooth in meshing. However there is no paper that discuss the elongation of contact length in the load meshing of gears. Based on our investigation, the contact length on the line of action elongates more than the kinematically calculated value. In rolling, as the tool approaches the workpiece, the center distance of the gears decreases by a small amount. But, the elongation of contact length is sensitive. Therefore, the contact point on the line of action is difficult to be determined, which complicates the tooth analysis. In this study, the exact relation between the elongation of contact length and the tooth space over the recess or before the approach are revealed by experiments and kinematic theory. This analytical result applies not only for rolling, but also for the single flank meshing which is done under constant center distance.

In this study, a new model for flexible disk grinding process will be proposed. A grinding mechanism with a grinding disk attached to the rubber platen has been introduced. Since the spinning axis is fixed and only the disk is deflected with respect to this axis, earlier model is not adequate to represent this proces. A new dynamic process model includes an assumption that the disk is deflected locally around the middle of its radial span between the spinning axis and the disk tip instead of several continuous deflection points along the radial span of the disk. Detailed kinematic analysis is proposed as for the removed portion during the process. Cutting force comonent and depth of cut profile trend is compared with the measured result.
