압전 액츄에이터는 다른 종류의 액츄에이터와 비교할 때 높은 강성, 빠른 응답성의 우수한 특성을 가지고 있다. 벤더형 액츄에이터는 높은 변위의 장점을 가지나 높은 전기장과 기계적 부하인가시에는 내부 응력이 증가하므로서 신뢰성이 감소한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 여러 방법으로 내부 응력을 줄이려는 시도가 있으며 그중 하나는 경사기능 소재나 경사기능 구조를 가지는 액츄에이터의 개발이다. 본 연구에서는 경사기능 특성을 모사한 액츄에이터 구조를 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. 두 가지의 압전상수 d31= - 220 pC/N, d31 =- 100 pC/N를 가지는 세라믹층을 적층하여 벤더형 액츄에이터의 특성을 관찰하였다. 그 결과 두 종류의 세라믹층으로 적층한 액츄에이터가 한가지 특성의 세라믹으로 제작한 액츄에이터 보다 전압인가시 20%이상의 우수한 변위 특성을 나타내었다. 이러한 변화는 내부 응력의 감소에 기인한 것으로 예상된다.

This paper is concerned with effects of Mn and heat-input on the mechanical properties of EGW welds. Four different kinds of welding consumables were fabricated by varying Mn contents such as 1.3, 1.5, 1.7, 2.0%Mn and each consumable was welded for EGW on four heat-input conditions between 190 and 340 KJ/Cm. Mn contents were decreased as heat-input increases and alloy elements (C, Si, Ti, B, Al) to deoxidize easily also revealed similar tendency to Mn. Their microstructure, Charpy impact property and strength were investigated, and it is found that Charpy impact property and strength exhibit a strong dependence on change of microstructure by Mn contents and heat-input. The increase of Mn contents or the decrease of heat-input made the microstructure fine and increase volume fraction of acicular ferrite, thereby leading to the great improvement of Charpy impact property and strength. In case of single EGW, optimum Mn contents are over 1.7% for the toughness and strength.

Warm deep drawing of single-action dies using local heating has appeared to be an alternative attractive production method of multi-operation die sets generally used at room temperature in deep drawing of rectangular cup. Uniaxial tensile tests and deep drawing tests of various materials are carried out and the effect of temperature on tensile properties and drawability are examined at temperatures up to 200 .deg. C under three kinds of lubricants of teflon film, vinyl film and drawing oil. Good formability is achieved when punch and die temperature were differentiated intentionally in order to get large tensile strength(TS) at punch shoulder protion and small TS at die side. Throughout the experiments, it has been shown that the limiting drawing height of STS316L was increased with heating die and blank holder at 100 .deg. C, but that of STS430 wasn't. When vinyl or teflon film was attached on the plates, the drawability was increased considerably.

There are a number of factors affecting the continued airworthiness of composite structure. Unlike metal structure, damages made in manufacturing processes or maintenance repair procedures need to be considered. The different levels of degradation and damage, which may occur, must be considered for structural substantiation of static strength, stiffness, flutter, and damage tolerance. This can start with an evaluation of environmental effects for the particular composite material. Matrix-dominated composite properties, such as compressive strength, are most sensitive to moisture absorption and temperatures. Static strength substantiation includes the smaller damages that will not be detected in production or maintenance inspection while damage tolerance addresses larger damages that need to be repaired once discovered. In this paper, we intend to list the airworthiness regulations and advisory circular that are deemed closely related to the certification of composite airplanes.

The present paper develops finite element procedures to calculate displacements, strains and stresses in initially stressed elastic solids subjected to static or time-dependent loading conditions. As a point of departure, we employ Hamilton's principle to obtain nonlinear equations of motion characterizing the displacement in a solid. The equations of motion reduce to linear equations of motion if incremental stresses are assumed to be infinitesimal. In the case of linear problem, finite element solutions are obtained by Newmark's direct integration method and by modal analysis. An analytic solution is referred to compare with the linear finite element solution. In the case of nonlinear problem, finite element solutions are obtained by Newton-Raphson iteration method and compared with the linear solution. Finally, the effect of the order of Gauss-Legendre numerical integration on the nonlinear finite element solution, has been investigated.

With the increasing use of transparent displays and flexible devices, polymer substrates offering excellent flexibility and strength are in demand. Since polymers are sensitive to heat, precise temperature control during the process is necessary. The study proposes a temperature measurement system for the laser processing area within the polymer base, aiming to address the drawbacks of using these polymer bases in laser-based selective processing technology. It presents the possibility of optimizing the process conditions of the polymer substrate through local temperature change measurements in the laser processing area. We developed and implemented the PDPT (Photodiode-based Planck Thermometry) to measure temperature in the laser-processing area. PDPT is a non-destructive, contact-free system capable of real-time measurement of local temperature increases. We monitored the temperature fluctuations during the laser processing of the polymer substrate. The study shows that the proposed laser-based temperature measurement technology can measure real-time temperature during laser processing, facilitating optimal production conditions. Furthermore, we anticipate the application of this technology in various laser-based processes, including essential micro-laser processing and 3D printing.

A vehicle door impact beam made of a thin sheet of steel has been constructed using hot stamping technology with the aim of ensuring occupant safety in the event of a side collision. This technology has been used to increase the strength of the vehicle body parts and to reduce the weight of the door impact beam as well as the number of work processes. Mechanical tests were performed to determine the material properties of the hot-stamped specimen and the results of the tests were used as input data in stamping and structural simulation in order to obtain the optimal design of door impact beam. The strength of the hot-stamped door impact beam increased to a value that was 102% higher than that of conventional pipe-shaped door impact beam. A weight reduction of 34% was also achieved.

In this study, we propose a method for predicting the mechanical properties of the printed circuit board (PCB) that has transversely isotropic characteristics. Unlike the isotropic material, there is no specific test standard for acquisition of the transversely isotropic properties. In addition, common material test methods are not readily applicable to that type of laminated thin plate. Utilizing the natural frequency obtained by a modal test and the sizing optimization technique provided in $OptiStruct^{(R)}$, the mechanical properties of a PCB were derived to minimize the difference between test and analysis results. In addition, the validity of the predicted mechanical properties was confirmed by the MAC (Modal Assurance Criteria) value of each of the compared mode shapes. This proposed approach is expected to be extended to the structural analysis for the design verification of the top product that includes a PCB.

A spindle with a built-in motor can be used to simplify the structure of a machine tool system, but the rotor inevitably has unbalanced mass. This paper presents an analysis of the dynamic behavior. The spindle was used in a CNC lathe and investigated using the finite element method and transfer matrices. The high-speed spindle can be very sensitive to the rotation of an unbalanced mass, which has a harmful effect on many machine tools. Thus, a balancing procedure was performed with a spindle-bearing system for the CNC lathe by numerical analysis. The balancing was performed through the influence coefficient method, and the whirl orbit radii before and after balancing were compared to evaluate the effects. The results show that the rotational speed of the spindle seriously affects the whirl responses of the spindle. The whirl responses were also affected by other factors, such as the unbalanced mass and bearing stiffness. The balancing of the assembled spindle model significantly reduced the whirl orbit magnitude.

Joints, fasteners or connected parts frequently have a significant effect on the dynamical behavior of assembled mechanical structures. Therefore, the analytical prediction of structural responses depends on the accuracy of joint modeling. This paper deals with the formulation and analysis of dynamic mechanism for joint flexibilities whose relevant magnitudes of stiffnesses are investigated by using linear and torsional springs. The equation of motion is derived by using a generic joint in the middle of clamped-clamped beam. A reanalysis due to changes in magnitudes of joint stiffnesses is based on the reduced analysis where the binomial series terms are used as basis vectors. The solution procedures are straightforward and the method can be readily used with a general finite element method. The computational effort needed by this approach is usually much smaller than the effort needed for complete vibration analysis. Two numerical examples show that accurate results are obtained efficiently by reducing the number of degree in the reduced model.
