The shearing process for the sheet metal is normally used in the precision elements such as a lead frame of IC chips. In these precision elements, the burr formation brings a bad effect on the system assembly and demands the additional deburring process. In this paper, we developed the small size precision punching system to investigate burr formation mechanism and to present kinematically punch-die aligning methodology between the rectangular shaped punch and die. The punch is driven by an air cylinder and the sheet metal is moving on the X-Y table system which is driven by two stepping motors. The whole system is controlled by microprocessor and is communicated with each other by RS232C serial communication protocol. Punching results are measured manually using the SEM photographs and are compared aligning result with miss aligning one.

Alignments of photo-reactive mesogen were induced using bare glass substrates without a polymer alignment layer. It was found by using polarized FTIR spectroscopy, polarized microscopy, and birefringence measurement experiments that the reactive mesogen could be aligned along the rubbing direction although the glass substrate without an alignment layer was used. The induction mechanism of the rubbed bare glass is ascribed to that polymers from rubbing clothes are coated on the glass substrate along the rubbing direction and lead the alignment of liquid crystals through intermolecular interactions.

We studied the mechanism of liquid crystal alignment on polyvinylfluorocinnamate (PVCN-F) films which were irradiated by UV using polarized fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) spectroscopy. UV irradiation of PVCN-F films caused decrease of vinylene -C=C- stretching peak area at $1638cm^{-1}$ and shift of conjugated C:0 stretching vibration at $1712cm^{-1}\;to\;1734cm^{-1}$ which is caused by nonconjugated C=O stretching nitration. To study the orientation direction of 5CB liquid crystal (LC) molecules in the liquid crystal cell with PUV irradiation, rubbing treatment or without any treatment on the PVCN-F alignment layer, we used polarized FT-IR dichroism technique. We successfully measured 5CB LC alignment directions, which are perpendicular to the irradiated PUV polarization direction and parallel to the rubbing direction in the liquid crystal cell without using dichroic dyes.

We discuss several key technologies of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) that share common features of all organic displays (AODs). An overview of the morphological effects associated with molecular ordering at interfaces on the Crystallinity and the carrier mobility in organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) is given from the viewpoint of the alignment mechanism for LCDs. Recent progress of improving the carrier mobility in the OTFTs is also reviewed.

In this study, the momentum conservation type punching mechanism for micropunching system was developed to avoid the punch failure in the misaligned status between the punch and die. The punching energy can be precisely controlled by the falling height of the projectile mass and the intermediata mass, which contacts with the punch, transmit the energy to the punch with the same contact condition. The potential energy of the projectile mass is converted to kinetic energy at the light weight punch that the projection speed into the sheet metal workpiece can be accelerated. The butt formation characteristics for the alignment condition and for the projection speeds are investigated to verify the feasibility of the proposed punching mechanism.

Corynebacterium tuberculostearicum B146, a strain derived from healthy human skin, contains a medium copy plasmid, p1B146. This plasmid was cloned and its complete nucleotide sequence determined. As a result, p1B146 was found to be 4,2 kb in size with a 53% G+C content, plus six open reading frames (ORFs) were distinguished. According to a computer-assisted alignment, two of the ORFs exhibited significant similarities to already-known common plasmid proteins, the first being the RepA gene, responsible for plasmid replication via a rolling-circle mechanism, and the second being an FtsK-like protein, the function of which remains unclear. The presence and quantity of RNA fragments in the putative ORFs were also evaluated.

About 50% of stars reside in binary or multiple systems. However, the formation mechanism of the multiplicity is poorly understood. Theoretical studies suggest two main mechanisms for the multiplicity: turbulent fragmentation and disk fragmentation. We can testify which mechanism is more plausible by measuring the separation between companions or the alignment of stellar spins. Here we present our ALMA Cycle 2 observational results of a proto-binary system, IRAS 04191+1523, which consists of two Class I sources. We detected disks around both Class I sources, which are located in a common dense filamentary structure traced by $C^{18}O$ J=2-1. Two protostellar disks are separated by ~900 AU and their rotational axes are almost perpendicular, which strongly support that this binary system formed by the turbulent fragmentation.

A driveline incorporating universal joints when driving through an angle can excite various components in a vehicle with second order excitation of torsional and bending vibrations, being transmitted either audibly(noise), or physically(vibration). For a certain range of vehicle dpeed noises can be radiated from the cab wall, in which resonances occur by the excitations transmitted from the driveline as a vibration source. In this paper, the excitation mechanism of cab noises is studied especially for the vehicle speed range of 65 .approx. 75 km/h through the simulation for torsional vibrations of the driveline and for bending vibrations of the cab of an 11 Ton grade Cargo Truck, and verified additionally by vibration and noise measurements. As a result, it is found that the uncomfortable noises in the cab are caused mainly by the abrupt increase of the joint angle of driveline near the axle differential resulted from the excessive clearance alignment of the leaf spring gate.

For Earth observation, a small satellite camera has relatively weak structural stability compared to medium-sized satellite, resulting in misalignment of optical components due to severe launching and space environments. These alignment errors can deteriorate the optical performance of satellite cameras. In this study, we proposed a 3-axis focus mechanism to compensate misalignment in a small satellite camera. This mechanism consists of three piezo-electric actuators to perform x-axis and y-axis tilt with de-space compensation. Design requirements for the focus mechanism were derived from the design of the Schmidt-Cassegrain target optical system. To compensate the misalignment of the secondary mirror (M2), the focus mechanism was installed just behind the M2 to control the 3-axis movement of M2. In this case, flexure design with Box-Behnken test plan was used to minimize optical degradation due to wave front error. The wave front error was analyzed using ANSYS. The fabricated focus mechanism demonstrated excellent servo performance in experiments with PID servo control.
