Underwater torpedo has control fin with very low aspect ratio due to launching from limited size of cylindrical torpedo tube. If the aspect ratio of control fin of underwater vehicle is very low three-dimensional flow around control fin largely reduces control forces. In this study, the end plate was applied to reduce the three-dimensional flow effects of partially movable control fin of underwater vehicle. Through numerical simulations the flow field around control fin was examined with and without end plate for different flap angles. The pressure, vorticity, lift and torque on the control fin were analyzed and compared to experiments. The comparison have shown a reasonable agreement between numerical and experimental results and the effect of end plate on a low aspect ratio control fin. When the end plate was attached to the movable control fin, the lift increased and the actuator shaft torque did not significantly change. As this means less consumption of the actuator shaft torque compared to the control fin that has the same control force, the inner actuator capacity can be reduced and energy consumption can be saved. Considering this, it is expected to be effectively applied to the control fin design of underwater vehicles such as torpedoes.

This paper develops the theory for a fault-tolerant, permanent magnet biased, homopolar magnetic bearing. If some of the coils or power amplifiers suddenly fail, the remaining coil currents change via a novel distribution matrix such that the same magnetic forces are maintained before and after failure. Lagrange multiplier optimization with equality constraints is utilized to calculate the optimal distribution matrix that maximizes the load capacity of the failed bearing. Some numerical examples of distribution matrices are provided to illustrate the theory. Simulations show that very much the same dynamic responses (orbits or displacements) are maintained throughout failure events (up to any combination of 3 coils failed for the 6 pole magnetic bearing) while currents and fluxes change significantly. The overall load capacity of the bearing actuator is reduced as coils fail. The same magnetic forces are then preserved up to the load capacity of the failed.

The purpose of this study is to experimentally investigate the structural performance of concrete exterior beam-column joints confined by carbon sheet tube. Four specimens were produced with different numbers of carbon sheet and the other specimen was produced with reinforced concrete. A hydraulic dynamic actuator with 30tonf capacity was used to cyclic lateral loading test. The experimental results represent that the numbers of carbon sheet have an influence the load and displacement capacity. However, the bond length of carbon sheets for connecting beam and column has to be considered to improve the capacity of joint.

The flexural vibration of aluminum beams with active and passive constrained-layer damping has been investigated experimentally to design a structure with maximum possible damping capacity. Piezoelectric film is used as a sensor and piezoceramic as an actuator for the negative velocity feedback control. The experimental results are compared with those by the finite element analysis. This paper shows the effectiveness of active constrained-layer damping treatment through experiments, and we have carried out an experiment to study the effect of beam thickness.

Recently, optical disc drives are required to have high density and capacity in according with development of high definition images and rapid increase of various informations. Consequently, the numerical aperture becomes larger, the wavelength of laser is coming to be short. However, it deteriorates rolling mode effect on an optical pickup actuator. Therefore, this paper proposes new design and optimization of tracking coils for reducing it. First, we verify that discord between the center of force and the center of mass by restrictions of design condition is an important factor of rolling mode effect. Then, in order to reduce it, we propose new design parameters of tracking coils. Finally, we reduce rolling mode effect through optimization of tracking coils using Taguchi method and response surface method.

Active control of flexural vibrations of smart laminated composite beams has been carried out using piezoceramic sensor/actuator and viscoelastic material. The beams with passive constrained layer damping hale been analyzed by formulating the equations of motion through the use of extended Hamilton's principle. The dynamic characteristics such as damping ratio and modal damping of the beam are calculated for various fiber orientations by means of iterative complex eigensolution method. This paper addresses a design strategy of laminated composite under flexural vibrations to design structure with maximum possible damping capacity.

Conventional robot manipulators actuated by motors with the speed reducer such as the harmonic drive have weakness in the load capacity, since the speed reducer does not have enough strength. To overcome this, we proposed and constructed a new type of the robot actuator which is four-bar-link mechanism driven by the ball screw. We developed a new type of a revolute-jointed robot manipulator composed of four axes. The base axis is actuated with conventional speed reducer, but the others are actuated by the proposed actuators. We analyzed the mechanism of the actuators of the robot joints, and developed the dynamics model. The dynamics are expressed in the joint coordinates, and then they are mapped into the sliding coordinates of the ball screw. The structure specifications of the manipulator shown.

Nowadays, various approaches are performed to increase the storage capacity of optical storage device. One of the promising candidates is using the high NA lens. By using high NA lens, the beam spot size can be reduced which will lead to increase the storage density. This paper proposes a double cantilever beam type bimorph PZT actuator for fine motion that can control the gap between the flexible media and optical pickup which uses high NA lens. Mathematical model is derived by using Hamilton's principle and the model is verified by finite element analysis and experiment. Position controller is designed and its performance is evaluated by experiment.

AOV used fluid capacity and fluid pressure control in nuclear power plant with heating power plant. AOV structures safely must be secured the reliability and a safety of the atomic power plant. but, AOV where is used from domestic is using the product of the overseas enterprise. The AOV design and maintenance technique is insufficient. Therefore According to ASME designed AOV, The performance test resultant fluid leakage did not occur and AOV design was satisfactory.

근래에 지어진 건축물의 경우 지진에 대한 안전성을 확보하고 있지만 1983년 개정이전의 건축물은 내진설계가 미반영 되어 있어 지진에 대해 매우 취약하다. 본 연구에서는 내진성능이 부족한 기존 건축물의 지진 발생 시의 안전성 확보를 위한 내진보강 방안으로 격자강판 내진보강벽을 제안한다. 축력과 반복수평력을 받는 성능실험을 수행하였으며, 실험체는 벤치마크 용도로 순수 철근콘크리트 프레임(BM-RC)과 프레임 내부에 격자강판 내진보강벽(SW-RC)을 설치한 2개의 실험체를 제작하여 실험을 수행하였고, 축력과 횡하중 가력을 위하여 500kN용량의 엑츄에이터 2대와 2,000kN용량의 엑츄에이터 1대를 사용하였다. 실험결과를 통해 벤치마크 실험체와 비교하여 강도, 강성, 연성 및 에너지소산능력을 평가하였다.
