A parametric modeling method, one of the core technology of BIM (Building Information Modeling), is proposed for efficient 3D assembly design among components of a superstructure module of modular steel bridge. Assembly system is classified into 3 levels as LoD (Level of Details) for 3D assembly design of the parts. Components forming 3D shape of the parts are identified and defined as parameters, variables depending on parameters, or constants independent of the parameters. Then, spatial assembly rules among the parts are defined according to the assembly system. Positional relations among the identified shape components are defined for mating spatial position and geometrical relations are defined for constraining degree of freedom on X, Y, and Z axis. Finally, a standardized template is designed by applying the rules to 3D based assembly design for the parts of the superstructure module. In addition, applicability of the parametric modeling method is demonstrated by testing the shape variation of the superstructure module according to changing the defined parameters.

In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional (3D) scanning system based on two line lasers. This system uses two line lasers with different wavelengths as light sources. 532-nm and 630-nm line lasers can compensate for missing scan data generated by geometrical occlusion. It also can classify two laser planes by using the red and green channels. For automatic registration of scanning data, we control a stepping motor and divide the motor's rotational degree of freedom into micro-steps. To this end, we design a control printed circuit board for the laser and stepping motor, and use an image processing board. To compute a 3D point cloud, we obtain 200 and 400 images with laser lines and segment lines on the images at different degrees of rotation. The segmented lines are thinned for one-to-one matching of an image pixel with a 3D point.

Although the Ti-6Al-4V alloy has been used in the aircraft industry owing to its excellent mechanical properties and low density, the low formability of the alloy hinders broadening its applications. Recently, laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has become a novel process for overcoming the limitations of the alloy (i.e., low formability), owing to the high degree of design freedom for the geometry of products having outstanding performance used in high-tech applications. In this study, to investigate the effect of bulk shape on the microstructure and mechanical properties of L-PBFed Ti-6Al-4V alloys, two types of samples are fabricated using L-PBF: thick and thin samples. The thick sample exhibits lower strength and higher ductility than the thin sample owing to the larger grain size and lower residual dislocation density of the thick sample because of the heat input during the L-PBF process.

The fuzzy control and implementation of a new three-dimensional(3-D) inverted pendulum system are addressed. In comparison with conventional 1-D and 2-D systems, the 3-D inverted pendulum system is a proper benchmark system to simulate human's control action which includes the up and down motion to stabilize an inverted pendulum. To investigate the characteristics of the 3-D inverted pendulum system and to design of a fuzzy controller, we derive dynamic equations of the mechanism including a 3-axis cartesian robot and an inverted pendulum. We propose a design method of a fuzzy controller of the yaw and pitch angles of an inverted pendulum. In the design, the redundant degree-of-freedom(DOF) of the robot and the constrained workspace are taken into account. The performance of the proposed system is proved by experimental results using a developed PC-based Multi-Motion Control(MMC) board.

MPEG-I is actively working on standardization on the immersive video coding which provides up to 6 degree of freedom (6DoF) in terms of viewpoint. In a virtual space of 3DoF+, which is defined as an extension of 360 with motion parallax, looking at the scene from another viewpoint (another position in space) requires rendering an additional viewpoint using multiple videos included in the 3DoF+ video. In the MPEG-I Visual workgroup, efficient coding methods for 3DoF+ video are being studied, and they released Test Model for Immersive Video (TMIV) recently. This paper presents a patch packing method which packs the patches into atlases efficiently for improving coding efficiency of 3DoF+ video in TMIV. The proposed method improves the reconstructed view quality with reduced coding artifacts by introducing guardbands between patches in the atlas.

This paper proposes a novel technique of marker-based 2D-3D registration to combine 3D information obtained from preoperative CT images into 2D image obtained from intraoperative x-ray fluoroscopy image. Our method is divided into preoperative and intraoperative procedures. In preoperative procedure, we generate CT-derived DRRs using graphics hardware and detect markers automatically. In intraoperative procedure, we propose a hierarchical two- step registration to reduce a degree of freedom from 6-DOP to 2-DOF which is composed of in-plane registration using principal axis method and out-plane registration using minimal error searching method in spherical coordinate. For experimentation, we use cardiac phantom datasets with confirmation markers and evaluate our method in the aspects of visual inspection, accuracy and processing time. As experimental results, our method keeps accuracy and aligns very fast by reducing real-time computations.

In the fourth industrial revolution, the demand for metal three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is rapidly increasing. Metal 3D printing is an efficient method for manufacturing products because the method reduces material waste compared to subtractive manufacturing. In addition, products with complex shapes, such as turbine blades, can be easily produced using metal 3D printing because the method offers a high degree of freedom. However, due to the long production time of metal 3D printing, mass production is impossible, and post-processing is necessary due to its low precision. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new hybrid process that can efficiently process metals and to develop a metal 3D-printing-based hybrid processing system technology to secure high processing precision and manufacture complex shapes. In this study, the structural stability of a metal 3D printer based hybrid machining center was analyzed through structural analysis before its development. In addition, we proposed a design modification that can reduce the weight and increase the stiffness of the hybrid machining center by performing shape lightning based on the structural analysis results.

This paper presents cable-hydraulic driven 3DoF (Degree-of-Freedom) manipulator for cooperative robot with high output/low inertia and enhancing lager workspace of hydraulic manipulator. Hydraulic actuation could be solution to design more higher output manipulator than the one of electric motor actuation due to install actuation source and robot joint separated. In spite of this advantage, the conventional hydraulic driven manipulator using cylinder or vane actuator is not suitable for the candidate of cooperative robot because smaller workspace owing to small RoM (Range of Motion) hydraulic actuator. In this paper, we propose 3DoF manipulator with cable-hydraulic actuation which is more larger ratio of payload-to-weight than the one of conventional cooperative manipulator and larger workspace than the one of existing hydraulic driven manipulator. The performance of proposed manipulator was demonstrated by the experiments for confirming overall workspace task, high payload operation task under worst situation and comparing repeatability between developed manipulator and existed cooperative robots. The results of experiments showed that the appropriate performance of proposed manipulator for cooperative robot.

The 3D printing process provides a higher degree of freedom when designing ceramic parts than the conventional press forming process. However, the generation and growth of the microcracks induced during heat treatment is thought to be due to the occurrence of local tensile stress caused by the thermal decomposition of the binder inside the green body. In this study, an alumina columnar specimen, which is a representative ceramic material, is fabricated using the digital light process (DLP) 3D printing method. DTG analysis is performed to investigate the cause of the occurrence of microcracks by analyzing the debinding process in which microcracks are mainly generated. HDDA of epoxy acrylates, which is the main binder, rapidly debinded in the range of 200 to 500℃, and microcracks are observed because of real-time microscopic image observation. For mitigating the rapid debinding process of HDDA, other types of acrylates PETA, PUA, and MMA are added, and the effect of these additives on the debinding rate is investigated. By analyzing the DTG in the 25 to 300℃ region, it is confirmed that the PETA monomer and the PUA monomer can suppress the rapid decomposition rate of HDDA in this temperature range.
