We proposed an enhanced substrate-assembling technique using adhesive patterned spacers for flexible liquid crystal displays (LCDs). The negative photoresister was used for the rigid columnar spacers and the strong substrate-bonding agent. The proposed technique is expected to be a good candidate for manufacturing method of flexible LCDs.

Large-scale single-crystal organic nanowire arrays were generated using a direct printing method (liquidbridge- mediated nanotransfer molding) that enables the simultaneous synthesis, alignment and patterning of nanowires from molecular ink solutions. Using this method, single-crystal organic nanowires can easily be synthesized by self-assembly and crystallization of organic molecules within the nanoscale channels of molds, and these nanowires can then be directly transferred to specific positions on substrates to generate nanowire arrays by a direct printing process. Repeated application of the direct printing process can be used to produce organic nanowire-integrated electronics with two- or three-dimensional complex structures on large-area flexible substrates. This efficient manufacturing method is used to fabricate all-organic nanowire field-effect transistors that are integrated into device arrays and inverters on flexible plastic substrates.

Flexible dye sensitized photovoltaics (f-DSPVs) based on plastic substrates have attracted significant interest due to their light-weight, flexibility, and compatibility with roll-to-roll processing, as well as their potential application to ubiquitous power sources. However, f-DSPVs exhibit inferior power conversion efficiencies (PCE) compared to conventional DSPVs since the fabrication process must be conducted at a low-temperature (≤ 150℃) to prevent thermal damage of the plastic substrates, which generally results in poor interconnection between the TiO₂ nanoparticles. Numerous novel low-temperature manufacturing approaches for flexible photoanode and counter electrode have been developed. In this review, current progress on low temperature strategies for f-DSPVs technology are discussed.

The importance of flexible polymer-based pressure sensors is growing in fields like healthcare monitoring, tactile recognition, gesture recognition, human-machine interface, and robot skin. In particular, health monitoring and tactile devices require high sensor sensitivity. Researchers have worked on sensor material and structure to achieve high sensitivity. A simple and effective method has been to employ three-dimensional pressure sensors. Three-dimensional (3D) structures dramatically increase sensor sensitivity by achieving larger local deformations for the same pressure. In this paper, the performance, manufacturing method, material, and structure of high-sensitivity flexible pressure sensors based on 3D structures, are reviewed.

In this paper we propose a new approach far part families considering multiple attributes of parts in the design and operating stage of flexible manufacturing systems. We first represent the relationship of parts and the relative attributes using fuzzy membership function, AHP method and normalization. As a result, more realistic nonbinary data of the relationship is obtained. Then we group parts into part families based on the nonbinary data using fuzzy $\alpha$-cut and new similarity coefficient method. The performance of our method is compared numerically with others.

This research is concerned with production scheduling for FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System) which consists of machine centers served by cycle conveyor. The objective of the research is to develop and evaluate scheduling procedures to minimize the mean flow time. An optimal algorithm called SCTF (Shortest Circle Time First) is proposed when the conveyor runs at minimum possible speed (CS=1) and a heuristic algorithm called SCTJMF (Shortest Cycle Time and Job Matching Algorithm) is suggested when the conveyor runs at double speed (CS=2). The evaluation of the heuristic algorithm was implemented by comparison with the optimal algorithm for 112 experimentations for CS=1 and random schedule. The results showed that the proposed heuristic algorithm provides better solution that can be regarded noticeable when compared with SCTF algorithm and random scheduling.

3D printing technology is a promising technique for fabricating complex 3D architectures based on the CAD/CAM system, and it has been extensively investigated to manufacture structures in the fields of mechanical engineering, space technology, automobiles, and biomedical and electrical applications. Recent advances in the 3D printing of soft structures have received attention for the application of the construction of flexible sensors of soft robotics or the recreation of tissue/organ-specific microenvironments. In this review paper, we would like to focus on delivering state-of-the-art fabrication of soft structures with 3D printing technology and its various applications.

Computer simulation technique has been applied on the various engineering fields to reduce cost and development period. On this paper, we introduce a crane analysis program. Using this program, we can predict reaction force of each part or supporting force of truck crane on a personal computer system with out exclusive knowledge of multi-body dynamics. In order to consider the effect of boom flexibility according to each working condition, flexible dynamic theory is applied to the program. Actual crane model is analyzed on special work condition using this program and the results are compared with those of rigid boom model.

This paper introduces the outlines of the state-of-the-art in studying FMSs using analytical queueing network models. These include Jackson networks, reversible networks and approximate models of non-product-form networks. the focus is on identifying the major features of models as they relate to the operational characteristics of FMSs. Prescriptive models concerning the optimal design and/or operational control of FMS networks are also discussed. We notice that the presentation of materials in this paper basically follows Yao and Buzacott, On Queueing Network Models of Flexible Manufacturing Systems(FMSs), invited and published on Queueing Systems, Theory and Application 1(1986). For other analytical models of FMSs, refer to Buzacott and Yao, Flexible Manufacturing Systems : A Review of Analytical Models, Management Science 32, No.7(1986).

This research is concerned with Machine-Part Group Formation(MPGF) methodology for Flexible Manufacturing Systems(FMS). The purpose of the research is to develop a new heuristic algorithm for effectively solving MPGF problem. The new algorithm is proposed and evaluated by 100 machine-part incidence matrices generated. The performance measures are (1) grouping ability of mutually exclusive block-diagonal form. (2) number of unit group and exceptional elements, and (3) grouping time. The new heuristic algorithm has the following characteristics to effectively conduct MPGF : (a) The mathematical model is presented for rapid forming the proper number of unit groups and grouping mutually exclusive block-diagonal form, (b) The simple and effective mathematical analysis method of Rank Order Clustering(ROC) algorithm is applied to minimize intra-group journeys in each group and exceptional elements in the whole group. The results are compared with those from Expert System(ES) algorithm and ROC algorithm. The results show that the new algorithm always gives the group of mutually exclusive block-diagonal form and better results(85%) than ES algorithm and ROC algorithm.
