  • Inner diameter of bearing race is automatically measured by complete inspection system after grinding process. Contact type three points supporting method is widely applied to automatic inner diameter measurement because of its excellent stability. However, the geometric consideration regarding three points supporting method is not sufficient. In this study, the error equation from geometric error analysis of three points supporting method is found. The effect of factors in the error equation is also investigated. The error equation is linear for difference of diameter in sample and master on range of tolerance. An error becomes more and more larger, when the distance of two supporting balls or the diameter of supporting ball are increased. In the result, some considerations are proposed for measurement of inner diameter by the three points supporting method.

  • In this paper, we present a method to visualize the contact region between two molecules in a protein complex in a threedimensional space. The contact region of two molecules shows compatibility in geometric aspects. Usually, the computation of the area of contact region has been used to show the strength of compatibility. The numerical value and simple drawing of contact region would be useful for comparing the relative strength of different contacts, but it is not appropriate for analysing the geometric characteristics of the contact region. In this paper, we present a method to show the compatibility between two molecules by visualizing the distance information between them.

  • Due to the fact that the mechanism of the effects of temperature and initial geometric imperfection on low-velocity impact problem of axially moving plates is not yet clear, the present paper is to fill the gap. In the present paper, the nonlinear dynamic behavior of axially moving imperfect graphene platelet reinforced metal foams (GPLRMF) plates subjected to lowvelocity impact in thermal environment is analyzed. The equivalent physical parameters of GPLRMF plates are estimated based on the Halpin-Tsai equation and the mixing rule. Combining Kirchhoff plate theory and the modified nonlinear Hertz contact theory, the nonlinear governing equations of GPLRMF plates are derived. Under the condition of simply supported boundary, the nonlinear control equation is discretized with the help of Gallekin method. The correctness of the proposed model is verified by comparison with the existing results. Finally, the time history curves of contact force and transverse center displacement are obtained by using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. Through detailed parameter research, the effects of graphene platelet (GPL) distribution mode, foam distribution mode, GPL weight fraction, foam coefficient, axial moving speed, prestressing force, temperature changes, damping coefficient, initial geometric defect, radius and initial velocity of the impactor on the nonlinear impact problem are explored. The results indicate that temperature changes and initial geometric imperfections have significant impacts.

  • Geometric probing addresses the problem of determining geometric aspects of a structure from the mathematics and results of a physical measuring device such as a probe. This paper presents a new algorithm to recognize the shape of an unknown object by using a robot hand with a force and torque sensor. The new algorithm is called S.E.P.(Shape Exploration Procedure) which finds the global shape of an unknown object. The proposed method is composed of three major parts, finding contact informations such as contact point, calculation of shape information such as curvature, and expression of global shape from these informations. Comparing with the conventional approaches, the advantages of the proposed method are explained and verified by conducting experiments with a 3-dof SCARA robot.

  • A principle of "orthogonalization" is proposed as an extended notion of hybrid (force and position) control for robot manipulators under geometric endpoint constraints. The principle realizes the hybrid control in a strict sense by letting position and velocity feedback signals be orthogonal in joint space to the contact force vector whose components are exerted at corresponding joints. This orthogonalization is executed via a projection matrix computed in real-time from a gradient of the equation of the surface in joint coordinates and hence both projected position and velocity feedback signals become perpendicular to the force vector that is normal to the surface at the contact point in joint space. To show the important role of the principle in control of robot manipulators, three basic problems are analyzed, the first is a hybrid trajectory tracking problem by means of a "modified hybrid computed torque method", the second is a model-based adaptive control problem for robot manipulators under geometric endpoint constraints, and the third is an iterative learning control problem. It is shown that the passivity of residual error dynamics of robots follows from the orthogonalization principle and it plays a crucial role in convergence properties of both positional and force error signals.force error signals.

  • Creep force is one of the only appeared at conventional train which used to be driven by metallic wheel and rail contact. Due to the elastic deformation of wheel/rail contact patch by the weights of wheel and all the components related to it, creep force generates and becomes to the decision factor of critical speed of bogie(or railway vehicle) which is the criteria of avoiding vehicle to be unstable. There are many kind of factors which affect generation of creep force at a wheel/rail contact surface such as viscosity of contact patch, velocity, wheel and rail geometric profile, mechanical properties of wheel and rail. This paper concentrates on a wheelset simple 2 DOF Equation of Motion being exerted. From the simple numerical analysis using linear solution about getting creep force some factors could find roughly. Among the factors geometric parameter could be the one of most important for this study. In the future we'll prolong the range of study to find out method of measuring creep force easily.

  • Ball indentation tests have been used to estimate the mechanical properties of materials by several investigators. In this study, load-depth curves from ball indentation tests were analyzed using the geometric conditions of the contact between ball and specimen. A series of numerical calculations and experimental results showed that the contact load-depth curves could be simplified by linear functions. Once we obtained the contact indentation depth from linearizing the experimental indentation curves, the estimation process of the flow properties became straight-forward and the scatter of results could be drastically reduced.
