This study characterizes the coastdown performances of two small electric motors supported on high-speed ball bearings (BBs) and gas foil bearings (GFBs), and it predicts their acceleration performances. The two motors have identical permanent magnetic rotors and mating stators. However, the shaft of the GFBs has a larger mass and polar/transverse moments of inertia than that of the BBs. Motor coastdown tests demonstrate that the rotor speed decreases linearly with the BBs and nonlinearly with the GFBs. A simple model for the BBs predicts a constant drag torque and linear decay of speed with time. The test data validate the model predictions. For the GFBs, the hydrodynamic lubrication model predictions reveal that the drag torque increases linearly with speed, and the speed decreases exponentially with time. The predictions agree very well with the test data in the speed range of 100-30 krpm. The boundary lubrication model predicts a constant drag torque and linear decay of speed with time. The predictions agree well with the test data below 15 krpm. Mixed lubrication occurs in the speed range of 30-15 krpm. Rotor acceleration performances are predicted based on the characteristics of deceleration performances. The GFBs require more time to reach 100,000 krpm than the BBs because of their larger shaft polar moment of inertia. However, predictions for the assumed identical polar moment of inertia reveal that the GFBs have a nearly identical acceleration performance to that of the BBs with a motor torque greater than $0.03N{\cdot}m$.

An automatic transmission of automobiles enables comfortable driving experience with lower transmission shifting jerks. However, the assembly structure is more complicated and requires additional components with lower efficiency than the manual transmission system. Extensive research has been conducted to improve the overall transmission efficiency by optimizing each component of the automatic transmission assembly. This study focuses on enhancing the friction torque of double angular contact ball bearings used in automatic transmission. The friction torque of the bearing varies with the operating conditions such as the operational load and rotating speed. Since reducing the friction torque of the bearing tends to deteriorate the durability of the bearing, it is necessary to design the bearing having a minimum required friction torque by determining the durability life of an automatic transmission assembly, In this study, the theoretical life and friction torque of conventional and newly-developed bearings are calculated. The difference in the friction torque between the new and existing bearings are also evaluated.

복합재료를 활용하여 설계되는 구조물은 각 부품들의 조립, 체결부를 갖게 된다. 이러한 연결 또는 조인트는 구조에서 잠재적으로 취약 부분이 될 수 있다. 복합재료 볼트 조인트의 파손모드는 구조 안전성을 위해 베어링 파손모드로 설계된다. 베어링 파손모드로 파괴되는 복합재료 볼트 조인트의 하중-변위 관계는 초기 파손 발생 후 비선형 거동을 보이며, 점진적인 파손을 보인다. 이러한 비선형적이고 점진적인 복합재료 볼트 조인트의 파손거동을 정확히 예측하기 위해 본 연구에서는 기존의 파손해석 모델에서 전단 손상변수 계산 과정에 수정을 수행하였다. 수정된 파손해석 모델을 이용하여 복합재료 볼트 조인트의 베어링 응력-베어링 변형률 결과를 예측하였으며, 기존 수정되지 않은 해석모델과 비교를 통해 수정된 모델의 유효성을 입증하였다.

테이퍼롤러 베어링은 축하중과 반경방향 하중이 동시에 인가되는 회전기계의 핵심 부품으로, 자동차 입력축과 출력축의 지지 베어링 등에 주로 사용되고 있다. 특히, 변속기에 사용되는 테이퍼롤러 베어링의 경우 조립시에 축방향 과다 예압이 인가된 상태로 조립된 경우 베어링의 수명이 단축되는 결과를 가져올 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 테이퍼롤러 베어링의 축방향 과다 예압에 의한 수명 단축 효과를 실험적으로 검증하고 그 결과에 의한 베어링의 수명 분포를 분석하였다. 또한, 기존의 $L_{10}$ 수명식에 비하여 현장 작동 조건에 따른 실질적인 수명을 산출할 수 있는 축방향과 반경방향을 고려한 수명식을 도출하고 이를 프로그램화 하여 설계 및 생산 현장에서 용이하게 활용할 수 있도록 하였다.

This paper describes the optimum design for journal bearings by using simulated annealing method. Simulated annealing algorithm is an optimization technique to calculate global and local optimum solutions. Dynamic characteristics of the journal bearing are calculated by using finite difference method (FDM), and these values are used for the procedure of journal bearing optimization. The objective is to minimize the resonance response (Q factor) of the simple rotor system supported by the journal bearings. Bearing clearance and length to diameter ratio are used as the design variables.

Finally, the optimal geometry of compressor wheel is considered. The mean efficiency and the - minimum efficiency are maximized respectively. The results presented in this paper provide important design information necessary to reduce the energy loss.

In this paper, the optimum designs of air-bearing surface(ABS) are achieved effectively by using reduced basis concept which can reduce the number of design variables although the design space is distended. Generally, the optimization method is more effective than the trial and error. However, the efficiency of the former is largely dependent on the number of the design variables. In order to reduce the number of design variables and increase the efficiency, reduced basis concept is applied. We can define the desired design as a linear combination of basis designs using this concept. From this optimization method with reduced basis concept, we easily obtain the optimum designs of ABS whose target flying heights are 25, 20, 15 nm.
