In this paper the relationship between the pressing force applied to rotors and the characteristics of ultrasonic motor are discussed. The characteristics of ultrasonic motor using a piezoelectric vibrator were systematically studied. And these were applied to the construction of a card forwarding device. The principle of ultrasonic motor is to use an elliptical motion generated on the side of the vibrator, and the elliptical motion of the ultrasonic motor was obtained by complex oscillation of $L_1-B_4$ mode. As the experimental results. the forwarding speed of the card increased linearly as the pressing force applied to rotors increased. The forwarding speed of the card was 16.0 cm/s when the pressing force applied to rotors was 1 N. The forwarding force of the card increased linearly as the pressing force applied to rotors increased. The forwarding force of the card was 398 mN when the pressing force applied to rotors was 1 N. Therefore, this ultrasonic motor can be expected to be used for card-forwarding device and so on.

The movement of teeth during orthodontic treatment requires bone remodeling process in periodontal tissue. To find out the changes occuring in the cell itself, mechanical force was applied to the cultured periodontal ligament cells. Following results were obtained from measuring the changes in cyclic AMP and $PGE_2$, $^3H$-thymidine incorporation amount in time lapse after application of mechanical force. 1. When mechanical force was applied to cultured PDL cells, the amount of cAMP in cells were increased significantly after 15 min. of force application, but were decreased gradually as time lapsed. 2. When mechanical force was applied to cultured PDL cells, the amount of PGE2 were increased at 20,40,60 min. and was significantly increased at 20 min. 3. When mechanical force was applied to cultured PDL cells, the amount of $^3H$-thymidine incorporation was some increased, but was not statistically significant.

Stroke patients must do the rehabilitation exercise to recover their fingers' function using a rehabilitation robot. But the rehabilitation robots mostly have not the force sensors to control the applied force to each finger. Thus, in this paper, the development of a force sensor for thumb rehabilitation robot and four two-axis force sensors for four-finger rehabilitation robot were developed. The force sensor and four two-axis force sensors could be used to measure the applied force to each finger, and the forces could be used to control the applied forces to each sensor in rehabilitation exercise using in the rehabilitation robot. The developed sensors have non-linearlity error of less than 0.05 %, repeatability error of less than 0.03 %, and the interference error of two-axis force sensor is less than 0.2 %.

The purpose of this study was to help examining force system, optimal treatment, and prevention of relapse. Orthodontic force was generated by electromagnets, therefore duration could be freely controlled, and applied for 4 days in dogs. Force magnitude was 200gm and 50gm. duration was contious and intermittent. Intermittent duration was divided into 2 kinds of types in on/off, 1 mininute/1 minute, 10 seconds/1 minute. The results were as follows: 1. In the intermittent group to which force was applied for 10 seconds and ceased for 1 minute, osteoclast was not observed. 2. In the intermittent group to which 200gm of force was applied for 1 minute and ceased for 1 minute, there was blood circulation in periodontal space on pressure side, but mild hyalinized zone was observed. 3. More number of total osteoclast was counted in the pressure side of continous group to which 200gm of force was applied than in any other groups. 4. More number of frontal osteoclast was counted in the pressure side of intermittent group to which 200gm was applied for 1 minute and ceased for 1 minute than in any other groups. 5. On tension side, less periodontal space widening, more new bone and secondary cementum formation were observed in the intermittent group to which force was applied for 1 minute and ceased for 1 minute than in the continous group.

In this paper, the cutting force calculation of ball-end mill processing was modeled mathematically. All derivations of cutting forces were directly based on the tangential, radial, and axial cutting force components. In the developed mathematical model of cutting forces, the relationship of average cutting force and the feed per flute was characterized as a linear function. The cutting force coefficient model was formulated by a function of average cutting force and other parameters such as cutter geometry, cutting conditions, and so on. An experimental method was proposed based on the stable milling condition to estimate the cutting force coefficients for ball-end mill. This method could be applied for each pair of tool and workpiece. The developed cutting force model has been successfully verified experimentally with very promising results.

Different kinds of forces can be applied to the biological tissue. The analysis of the applied force is highly important to explain the mechanism of cellular response. In this study, the applied force to the collagen gel was analyzed by the finite elements analysis. The model received two different kinds of static force (compression and tension). The force range was 50g to 400g. In results, von Mises stress was concentrated in the peripheral region in the compression model. It was concentrated in the central area in the tension model. However, the compressive force was high in the peripheral area of the compression model and the tensional force was also high in the same area of the tension model. In conclusion, the applied force could be different to the region and it should be considered in the experiment to analyze the effects of the mechanical force on the cells.

Generally not only the radial load but also the moment may be applied to the ball bearings for a shaft system. However it has been difficult to determine the static equivalent load because there is the radial static equivalent equation only for the axial and radial force on the bearings. In this paper, the same static equivalent radial load which makes the maximum contact force at the interface between the ball and groove as the applied radial force and moment generate is calculated under the condition that the radial force and the moment are applied to the bearings simultaneously. The relation between the static equivalent load and applied force is studied. Therefore the simple and effective equation for the static equivalent radial load of the radial load and moment is proposed for the deep groove ball bearings.

This study was performed for the purpose of evaluating the stress distributions around five different types of implants according to their structures. The stress distribution around the surrounding bone was analysed by two-dimensional photoelastic method. Five epoxy resin models were made, and vertical and lateral forces were applied to the models. A circular polariscope was used to record the isochromatic fringes. The results of this study were summerized as follows : 1. Threaded type implants showed more even stress distribution patterns than cylinderical type implants when vertical and lateral forces were applied. 2. The stress concentrated patterns were observed at the neck portion and middle portion of the cylindrical type implants comparing with threaded type implants when vertical force was applied. 3. Model 1 and model 4 which are tthreaded type implants showed similar stress distribution patterns at the middle and apical portions and more stress was concentrated at the neck porion of model 1 comparing with model 4 when vertical force was applied. The stresses around model 1 were more evenly distributed when lateral force was applied. 4. More stress was concentrated at the neck and middle portion of cylindrical type implants than threaded type implants when lateral force was applied. 5. Model 1 showed the most even stress distribution patterns when lateral force was applied and stress distribution did no occured at the apical portion of modedl 2 when lateral force was applied. 6. There were almost no differences in stress concentrated patterns with or without having hollow design. And the stress concentrated patterns were observed at the corner of apex in model 5 which has hollow design when vertical force was applied.

This paper describes the development of a cylindrical-object grasping force measuring system applied haptic technology to measure the grasping force of strokes patients' fingers and other patients' paralyzed fingers. Because the cylindrical-object and the force measuring device of the developed cylindrical-object grasping force measuring system are connected with the electrical wires, patients and their families have difficulty not only measuring the patients' grasping force using the system but also knowing their rehabilitation extent when using it. In this paper, the cylindrical-object grasping force measuring system applied haptic technology was developed, and the cylindrical-object grasping force measuring device sends data to the rehabilitation evaluating system applied haptic technology by wireless communication. The grasping force measurement characteristic test using the system was carried out, and it was confirmed that the rehabilitation extent of the patients' paralyzed fingers and normal people fingers can be evaluated.
