This paper presents the hardness and friction characteristics of pb-free pin-bush bearing metal, which is manufactured by a centrifugal casting technology. A bronze metal with a high hardness and low friction properties is usually used for Diesel engine pin-bush bearing and high pressure cylinder. Pb-free metal for pin-bush bearings shows a little high hardness of 120 Hv compared with that of a conventional Pb bearing metal of 100~110 Hv. In general, the friction coefficient of pin-bush bearings is affected by a rotating speed and a load for various rubbing contact modes. But a contact load is more influential parameter when the contact rubbing mode transits from a mixed lubrication to a dry friction contact. The experimental result shows that the friction coefficient is more unstable at the dry contact mode compared with that of other two rubbing modes such as oil film contact and mixed friction conditions.

This paper presents a high-speed performance analysis of ball bearings with ceramic balls under thrust loads. The sliding velocity profiles between a ball and raceways were obtained by the 3-D quasi-dynamic equations of motion including both centrifugal force and gyroscopic moment derived by vector matrix algebra. The friction at the contact areas was obtained by the Bair-Winer's non-Newtonian rheological model and the Hamrock-Dowson's central film thickness in EHL analysis. The nonlinear equations were solved by the Newton-Raphson method and the underrelaxation iterative method. The friction torques and ball behaviors with various loads, ball materials, and contact angles were predicted by this model. It was shown that the friction torque was sensitive to thrust load and contact angle, and that the friction torque and the pitch angle of the bearing with ceramic balls are smaller than those of the bearing with steel balls.

The railway business was began at England in 1767. Since then, it has been changed for configuration of rail over the years and made in the form of I. The train propulsion has been developed in a engine of steam, diesel, motor, electromagnetic force and a pneumatic engine, continuously. also, the friction has been improved in a steel-wheel, rubber tire, frictionless maglev system and railless system. In consequence, the efficiency and improvement speed for train have been accomplished. In this paper, it is investigated for the structure with lightweight using the change for supporting the form of lateral pressure by centrifugal force in the substructure supporting load for railway vehicles.

This thesis is an experimental research of investigating behavior of single pile, subjected to the vertical compression loads, using the centrifuge facility located in the geotechnical engineering laboratory in Kangwon National University. Centrifugal model experiments of model pile were carried out changing diameter of model pile, relative density of sandy ground and the gravitational level applied in the centrifuge. Thus, their effects on the load-settlement behavior and the ultimate bearing capacity of pile were investigated. Experimental results obtained from centrifuge model tests were compared with the theoretical or semi-empirical equations to analyze values of ultimate bearing capacity of model pile. When we compare the ultimate bearing capacity of experimental results with the ultimate bearing capacity of theorical results, the experimental results appear more higher in the De Beer method and Meyerhof. Expecially, Terzaghi method is very same as the experimental results normally.

In this paper, two different methods are developed to be used for the design of noncontact dry gas seal which is used to prevent gas leakage of high speed rotating shaft-housing machineries. First method is using FEA to compute the deformation of seal face and the other is using Influence Coefficient Method in order to save computation of FEA. In both cases, heat load and mechanical loads are applied such as heat generation, bulk temperature and nodal force, bulk pressure, centrifugal force, respectively. ICM method is verified correct and effective and both methods give reliable and useful deformation results for the design of mechanical seals.

The vertical roller mill is the important machine grinding and mixing various crude materials in the manufacturing process of portland cement. Table liner is one of grinding elements of vertical roller mill and is subjected to the cyclic bending stress by rollers and the centrifugal force by rotation of table. It demands $4{\times}10^7$ expense of life but has $4{\times}10^6~-8{\times}10^6$ cycle. It fractures at the edge of grinding path of outside roller The repair expense fur it amounts to 30% of total maintenance of vertical roller mill. Therefore, this study shows the fracture mechanism of table liner of vertical roller mill using HDM and fatigue analysis

The main advantages of the Dry CVT with V-belt, which has been popular in Asia, are a simple mechanism, less maintenance and low cost. The important factors which have an influence on the performance of the CVT are the weight of the centrifugal roller, the change of axial distance and spring force. Based on an experiment, the effects of load torque, speed ratio, and revolution of both the driving pulley and the driven pulley during the alteration of the axial distance, roller weight and spring constant were studied.

Vibration analysis of rotating blade is the main purpose of this study. In the present work, general formulation is proposed to analyze the rotating shell-type structures including the effect of centrifugal force, Coriolis acceleration and initial twist. Furthermore, simplified equations are derived for the case of an open circular cylindrical shell. Based on the concept of degenerated shell element with the Reissner-Mindlin's assumptions, the finite element method is adopted for solving the governing equations. In addition, it is investigated the effect of thermal load on the vibration characteristics of pretwisted blade. Numerical results are summarized for the various parameters such as rotating speed, angle of pretwist and stacking sequence of a composite blade. Also, present results are compared with the previous works and experimental data.

Speed control of kerosene engine by the combination of a manual throttle and centrifugal weight type governor is not adequate for evaluating energy requirements in laboratory and field performance tests. This paper describes an engine speed control system. This system consists of Apple-II microcomputer, step motor set to the throttle shaft directly, step motor driving and interfacing circuit, engine performance data acquisition system for measuring load, speed and time and potentiometer as speed adjustor. The performance of this system was successful in maintaining engine speed within ${\pm}37$ rpm of reference speed indicated by computer and potentiometer.

The speed characteristics of the diesel engines driving alternators are very important because it is directly concerned to the quality of electric power especially when electric power is supplied by a single alternator. In this paper, the speed characteristics of th diesel engine, equipped with a centrifugal mechanical governor, driving an alternator is dealt when load changes stepwise. The all coefficients included in the block diagram of the speed control system are estimated by actual experiments and the effects of gain change of the governor in the speed characteristics are examined theoretically and experimentally. The obtained result seems to be satisfactory and very useful for the improvement of quality of electric power supplied by a single alternator driven by the diesel engine especially for electric power system of ships.
