The present work is an attempt to calculate the steady state pressure and perturbed pressure of herringbone grooved journal bearings. A generalized coordinate system is introduced to handle the complex bearing geometry. The coordinates are fitted to the groove boundary and the Reynold's equation is transformed to be fitted to this coordinates system using the Gauss divergence theorem. This method makes it possible to deal with an arbitrary configuration of a lubricated surface. The characteristics of finite herringbone grooved journal are well calculated using this method.

The static and dynamic characteristics of HDD slider with ulta-low flying height are analyzed using Direct Numerical method with Boundary Fitted Coordinate System. The slip flow effect is considered using the Boltzmann equation solution in a form of the flow rate database. The air film stiffness and damping are evaluated by the small perturbation method.

유량 보존 경계 조건을 적용하여 커넥팅 로드 베어링의 성능 해석을 수행하였다. 레이놀즈 경계 조건을 적용하는 경우에 비하여 최소 유막 두께, 동력 손실율과 축방향 유량은 더 작게, 최대 유막 압력은 더 크게 예측되었다. 유량 보존 경계 조건을 적용한 경우 축 방향으로의 공급 유량과 방출 유량이 거의 균형을 이루었다. 물리적으로 타당한 유량 보존 경계 조건을 적용한 커넥팅 로드 베어링의 성능 해석으로 얻어진 동력 손실율과 축 방향 유량을 이용하면, 윤활제의 온도 상승과 그에 따른 점도 변화를 좀 더 정확하게 예측 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Friction and wear characteristics of metals in dry and boundary lubricated sliding conditions are observed experimentally using pin-on-disk and pin-on-plate type tribotesters. The motivation of this research is to investigate the effect of sliding history on the tribological behavior of metals. Cu and SM45C steel materials were used for the experiment. The results show that in dry condition the fictional behavior as well as wear of the specimens differed between uni-directional and bi-directional sliding conditions. The friction coefficient values, wear profile and optical micrograph of the wear track are presented.

A kinetic theory analysis is made of low-speed gas flows in a microfluidic system consisted of three microchannels in series. The Boitzmann equation simplified by a collision model is solved by means of a finite difference approximation with the discrete ordinate method. For the evaluation of the present method results are compared with those from the DSMC method and an analytical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with slip boundary conditions. Calculations are made for flows at various Knudsen numbers and pressure ratios across the channel. The results compared well with those from the DSMC method. It is shown that the analytical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with slip boundary conditions which is suited fur fully developed flows can give relatively good results. In predicting the geometrically complex flows up to a Knudsen number of about 0.06. It is also shown that the present method can be used to analyze extremely low-speed flow fields for which the DSMC method is Impractical.

The morphological analysis of wear particle is a very effective means for machine condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. In order to describe morphology of various wear particle, the wear test was carried out under different experimental conditions. And fractal descriptors was applied to boundary and surface of wear particle with image processing system. These descriptors to analyze shape and surface wear particle are shape fractal dimension and surface fractal dimension. The shape fractal dimension can be derived from the boundary profile and surface fractal dimension can be determined by sum of intensity difference of surface pixel. The morphology of wear particles can be effectively obtained by two fractal dimensions.

To carry out perfectly the forming analysis of the extruding products, it is necessary that the friction boundary condition between dies and blanks should be worked out the accuate numerical friction models. But the numerical friction models adapting in the conventional Extrusion forming software may be large different from the actual conditions. Expecially, the use of the existing extrusion forming software is possible only in the limitted range owing to the unaccuracy of the high speed forming work. Therefore, tile prepare of this study is to develop the numerical friction model which describes the friction boundary condition mathematically well, to improve the accuracy of the extrusion farming analysis, and finally to expand the applying areas of the results.

Feasibility study of gas-lubricated bearing in micro gas turbine was performed. Based on Reynolds equation, finite difference method with coupled boundary was developed to analyze bearing characteristics, such as load-carrying capacity, mass flow rates and stiffness. By the bearing force and mass flow rates analysis with the variation of supply pressure, bearing clearance and capillary radius, acceptable range of design parameters were suggested in terms of load capacity and stiffness of bearings. Additionally, coupled boundary effect on pressure distribution was investigated and it is stated that coupling could reduce all excitation force due to narrow pressure distribution.

In case of the limitation of Deep RIE fabrication for Micro Gas Turbine, bearing aspect ratio is limited in very small value. The characteristics such as pressure distribution load capacity and non-linearity of a short bearing of L/D=0.083 and a conventional bearing of L/D=1.0 with coupled boundary effects are investigated far Micro Gas Tlubine bearings. The coupled efffect was analyzed by mass conservation at coupled end area. The results, increasing load capacity and non-linearity due to the coupled effect of thrust and journal bearing, are obtained and the selection of journal bearing type is discussed.
