Conventional force sensors such as piezoelectric sensor has limitations for measuring micro/nano-scale thrust. In this study we developed nano-scale measurement system using laser displacement sensor and cantilever. And electrospray microthruster was fabricated by using stainless capillary and extraction electrode, to generate nano-scale thrust. The measurement system can measure the around 90 nN thrust from this thruster. In addition, we designed and fabricated electrospray micro thruster based on PMMA(Polymethyl methacrylate), which has a nozzle protruded from the substrate.

Curling sweeping is one of important motion to control the position of the curling stone, and sweeping speed and applied force to the broom pad are major research subjects. In this study, a device was developed to measure the force applied to the curling broom pad in curling sweeping motion, and two load cells were mounted between the broom pad and pad holder. Analog signals generated from the load cells were sampled about 300 times per second using a micro controller, and then converted to 10-bit digital signals. Calibration of the load cell and set up of regression equations to convert the measured electrical signals into mass (force) was done by three M1 class weights, and the developed system was designed as wearable device to minimize increasing of total weight of the broom. Same force was applied to the developed system and a force plate that was using as a reference force measurement system in field of sports, and the difference between the measured values were showed about $0.909{\pm}1.375N$(mean and standard deviation). The developed system could be applied other kinds of study which required force measurement function similar to sweeping motion.

In this paper, acceleration and pressure exerted on a human model were measured under a supersonic condition in a shock tunnel. In order to measure these in an interference-free environment, free-fall technique with an electromagnet and a three-dimensional iron-powdered human model was used. Free-fall experiment was conducted at Mach 4 and the force acting on the model was obtained by calculating the displacement from the flow visualization images.

본 연구는 파프리카를 자동 수확하기 위한 시스템 개발의 일환으로 수확작업기의 절단장치를 설계하고자 파프리카 과병의 절단특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 파프리카 과병의 절단특성을 분석하기 위하여 사용한 파프리카는 경기도 평택시에서 재배된 파프리카를 사용하였다. 적색 품종인 Nagano RZ와 황색 품종인 Helsinki, 주황색 품종인 Boogie를 사용하였다. 파프리카 과병의 절단 특성을 분석하기 위하여 상기 세 가지 품종의 파프리카 30개씩 총 90개의 파프리카를 사용하여 과병의 중앙 지점을 절단하였다. 절단 특성을 측정하기 위하여 push-pull gauge인 digitect dtg-20을 사용하였으며, 파프리카의 과병의 절단 특성을 측정하기 위하여 일반 농가에서 사용하는 접도 OLFA CK2의 접도의 칼날을 digitect dtg-20에 장착하여 측정하였다. 파프리카 과병의 절단 특성의 시험 항목은 절단강도를 측정하였다. 파프리카의 과병의 절단 특성 측정은 수확작업기의 파프리카 과병의 절단을 위한 절단장치의 설계를 위하여 진행하였다. 파프리카 과병의 절단 특성은 파프리카의 훼손을 최소화한 수확작업을 위한 중요한 요소이다. 파프리카의 과병의 중앙을 절단하여 절단강도와 절단력을 측정하였다. 그 결과 파프리카 과병의 절단강도는 $4.18{\pm}1.18kgf$로 나타났으며, 최대값은 6.91kgf, 최소값은 2.26kgf로 나타났다. 파프리카 과병은 측정된 절단강도의 최대값인 6.91kgf보다 큰 힘을 이용하여 절단하여야 하므로 그에 맞게 수확작업기의 절단장치의 모터를 선정하고 설계가 이루어져야 한다고 판단한다.

It is definitely important to measure thrust during ground test when developing air-breathing engine, and in case of air-breathing engine, gross thrust should be calculated considering not only the measured thrust but also the force induced by the air flow of engine intake. Also, side thrust like yaw and pitch should be measured and analyzed using multi-component thrust measurement system. Engine performance was accurately evaluated by calculating the gross thrust of air breathing engine precisely which is analyzed from below serial procedure: labyrinth seal isolation, 1-axis gross thrust calculation, develop multi-component thrust measurement system, and side thrust analysis.

This paper presents the design of the power-assisted controller for the in-wheel type smart wheelchair by using torque estimation that is predicted by relationship between input voltage and output wheel angular velocity. Nowadays, interest of the moving assistant aids is increased according to the increase in population of the elderly and the handicapped person. However some of the moving assistant aids have problems. For example, manual wheelchair has difficulty moving at the slope, because users lack the muscular strength of their arm. In electric wheelchair case, users should be weak by being decreased muscles of upper body. To overcome these problems, power-assisted electric wheelchair are proposed. Most of the power-assisted electric wheelchair have the special rims that can measure the user's power. In here, the rims have to be designed to install the sensors to measure user's power. In this paper, we don't design the rim to measure the man power. To predict the man power, we propose a control algorithm of the in-wheeled electric wheelchair by using torque estimation from the wheel. First, we measure the wheel velocity and voltage at the in-wheel electric wheelchair. And then we extract driving will forces by using proposed mathematical model. Also they are applied at the controller as the control input, we verify to be able to control in-wheel type smart wheelchair by using simulation.
