This paper describes the simplified simulation method of the wire-guided underwater test body with natural supercavitation. In this paper, the simulation based model of the wire-guided underwater body with natural supercavitation is proposed by using preceding research and commercial flow-analysis software. By using the model, the 1-dimensional wire-guided body motion in natural supercavitation can be solved very fast with reliability. The suggested model is validated by the comparison of simulation results with experimental data.

Recently, the deburring process which is last process of manufacture is one of the important process for complete product. The manual deburring process can cause not only higher error rate but also irregular shape and quality of product. Therefore, Shape Guided Automatic Deburring Machine has been developed to resolve the above problems. But the Shape Guided Automatic Deburring Machine have been applied only to produce a circular product. Therefore, this machine is difficult to apply to products of various shapes. To solve this problem, we would like to develop Generalized Shape Guided Automatic Deburring Machine applicable to various shapes. To this end, we have done the modeling and design using CATIA program and have performed machine simulation.

Presented in this paper is a new experimental technique to measure material properties of lock plate of gas turbine plants by using ultrasonic guided wave. In comparison with the mechanical destructive testings, material characterization of the Inconel x-750 was nondestructively carried out in a more efficient manner to discriminate the change in elastic moduli and the poisson's ratio attributed to the variation of heat treatment condition. The proposed technique shows a satisfactory feasibility via the comparative experiments with the imported lock plate specimens. It is also expected that the guided wave technique can cover a longer and wider range as a new cost-&-time-saving inspection tool due to the interaction with a greater part of specimen, compared to a conventional local point-by-point scheme.

It has been previously reported that in principle sludge and blockages can be detected and even characterized by using guided ultrasonic torsional waves, based on an idealized model in which the sludge layer was simplified in terms of geometry and material properties. The work revealed that the presence of a layer inside a pipe scatters the guided wave propagating in the pipe and both the reflection and transmission of the guided wave can be used to effectively detect and characterize the layer. This paper proceeds the work by taking into account more realistic sludge characteristics, including irregular circumferential profiles of the sludge layer and imperfect bonding state between the sludge and the pipe. The influence of these issues is investigated to identify the critical factors that influence the detection and characterization capability of the two measurements.

This paper is about control of Automated Guided Vehicle for path following using fuzzy logic controller. The Automated Guided Vehicle is a tricycle wheeled mobile robot with three wheels, two fixed passive wheels and one steering driving wheel. First, kinematic and dynamic modeling for Automated Guided Vehicle is presented. Second, a controller that integrates two control loops, kinematic control loop and dynamic control loop, is designed for Automated Guided Vehicle to follow an unknown path. The kinematic control loop based on Fuzzy logic framework and the dynamic control loop based on two PID controllers are proposed. Simulation and experimental results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

Image-guided surgery potentially enhances intraoperative safety and outcomes in a variety of craniomaxillofacial procedures. We explore the efficiency of one intraoperative navigation system in a single complex craniofacial case, review the initial and recurring costs, and estimate the added cost (e.g., additional setup time, registration). We discuss the potential challenges and benefits of utilizing image-guided surgery in our specific case and its benefits in terms of educational and teaching purposes and compare this with traditional osteotomies that rely on a surgeon's thorough understanding of anatomy coupled with tactile feedback to blindly guide the osteotome during surgery. A 13-year-old presented with untreated syndromic multi-suture synostosis, brachycephaly, severe exorbitism, and midface hypoplasia. For now, initial costs are high, recurring costs are relatively low, and there are perceived benefits of imaged-guided surgery as an excellent teaching tool for visualizing difficult and often unseen anatomy through computerized software and multi-planar real-time images.

A new method is presented that uses guided wave techniques for sludge and blockage detection in long-range pipelines. Existing techniques have the limitations that the sludge position needs to be known a priori and the area to be inspected needs to be accessible. A novel guided wave technique has been developed that allow the sludge or blockages to be detected remotely without the need to access the specific location where the pipe is blocked, nor to open the pipe. The technique measures the reflection of guided waves by sludge that can be used to accurately locate the blocked region. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is demonstrated and confirmed by experimental measurements.

Noise map is drawn up under launch environment through analyzing jet noise of guided weapon in this research. This has an important significance in terms of having an opportunity to look at influence of noise which is caused by guided weapon in the surrounding environment. In this paper, the magnitude of jet noise that was measured by using microphone and the result of numerical analysis that was gained by using ENPro which is environment noise prediction program are shown. At this point estimation of noise source was based on ISO 9613. Finally noise map derived from results mentioned above will become useful material when setting safety guide for protecting hearing loss of operator of weapon system in the future.

The paper describes the vibration characteristics of the mechanical system consisting of a uniform cantilevered Timoshenko beam with a guided mass and an elastic spring supports. The free end of the beam does not rotate and the spring attatched to the guided mass is elastically restained against translation. The effect of magnitudes, rotary inertia and the size of the guided mass on the vibration characteristics is fully investigated by the numerical simulation using FEM and experiment. In order to verify the eigenvalue sensitivity for considered system, comparison exact solutions with FEM are conducted, and a good agreement between two solutions is also highlighted.

The guided wave propagation in inhomogeneous multi-layered structures is experimentally explored based on theoretical dispersion curves. It turns out that proper selection of incident angel and frequency is critical for guided wave generation in multi-layered structures. Theoretical dispersion curves greatly depend on adhesive zone thickness, layer thickness and material properties. It was possible to determine the adhesive zone thickness of an inhomogeneous multi-layered structure by monitoring experimentally the change of dispersion curves.
