  • It is very important to clarify the 3-D angular flow characteristics of in-cylinder bulk motion in the developing process of variable induction system. In-cylinder flow induced by variable induction system is very complex, so we can not describe the in-cylinder bulk flow characteristics using the conventional swirl or tumble coefficient. In this study, we introduced the new 3-D angular flow index, angular flow coefficient($N_B$), for in-cylinder bulk flow characteristics. And also, to confirm the index, we carried out the steady flow rig test for intake port of test engine varying valve lift on the test matrix.

  • One of common challenges in designing modern production machines is realizing high speed motion without sacrificing accuracy. To address this challenge it is necessary to maximize the stiffness of the mechanical structure and the control system with consideration on the main disturbance input, cutting forces. This paper presents analysis technologies for realizing high stiffness in production machines. First, CAE analysis techniques to evaluate the dynamic stiffness of a machine structure and a new method to construct the physical machine model for servo controller simulations are demonstrated. Second, cutting forces generated in milling processes are analyzed to evaluate their effects on the mechatronics system. In the effort to investigate the interaction among the structure, controller, and process, a flexible multi-body dynamics simulation method is implemented on a magnetic bearing stage as an example. The presented technologies can provide better understandings on the mechatronics system and help realizing high stiffness production machines.

  • Non-destructive freshness measurement using spectroscopy has been carried out several times, but research on freshness and freshness has not been conducted. Therefore the purpose of this study is to develop a system for visually measuring and quantifying the air sack inside the egg by non - destructive method. The experimental environment which designed a small chamber was composed of 850nm band of two IR lasers, IR camera and two servo motors to acquire air sack Images. When the air sack volume ratio is 2.9% or less and the density is 0.9800 or more, the Haugh Unit value is 60 or more It was judged to be a fresh egg of a grade B or higher. These results mean, using the weight measurement, nondestructive decision system, and freshness evaluating algorithm. It can be expected to distinguish grade B or more marketable eggs without using destructive methods.

  • The use of gantry crane systems for transporting payload is very common in industrial application. However, moving the payload using the crane is not an easy task especially when strict specifications on the swing angle and on the transfer time need to be satisfied. To overcome this problem, this paper describes development of an intelligent gantry crane system based on the mechatronic design. A lab-scale gantry crane is designed and then its intelligent controllers are developed. Fuzzy logic controllers are adopted, designed and implemented for controlling payload position as well as the swing angle of the gantry crane. The performance of the intelligent gantry crane system is evaluated on a hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) environment. Moreover robustness of the proposed system is also evaluated. The result shows that the intelligent gantry crane system designed based on the mechatronic design approach has better performance compared with the automatic gantry crane system controlled by classical PID controllers. Moreover simulation result shows that the intelligent gantry crane system is more robust to parameter variation than the automatic gantry crane system.

  • This paper describes a study for the buoy which should be operated by a stand-alone power system. The field of this study is related to a power system operated by two batteries which depends on the load power. The fluctuation of the voltages makes the life cycle of the battery shorten. The control algorithm has been proposed for reducing the voltage pulsation of the battery by operation strategy according to using purpose such as main or sub power supply system. The power system with battery is separated two parts and this has been proved through a simulation and a sea experiment. In order for the experiment to use a wireless monitoring system has been installed in buoy. This paper shows an excellent test result of wireless monitoring system for buoy.

  • Twin-servo mechanism is used to increase the payload capacity and speed of high precision motion control system. In this paper, we propose a robust synchronizing motion control algorithm to cancel out the skew motion of twin-servo system caused by different dynamic characteristics of two driving systems and the vibration generated by high accelerating and decelerating motions. This proposed control algorithm consists of separate feedback motion control algorithm of each driving system and skew motion compensation algorithm between two systems. Robust model reference tracking controller is proposed as a separate motion controller and its disturbance attenuation property is shown. For the synchronizing motion, skew motion compensation algorithm is designed, and the stability of whole Closed loop system is proved based on passivity theory.

  • Recently, IVS(Intelligent Vehicle Systems) or ITS(Intelligent Traffic Systems) are much concerned subjects of automotive industry. In this paper, we will introduce an Intelligent Online Driving System for a car. This system allows the driver to be able to drive the car just by operating an integrated joystick. The proposed driving system could be implemented into any car and the key point of the design is that the driver still can drive the car as normal without using the joystick. Our Intelligent Online Driving System includes the integrated joystick, steering wheel control system, brake and acceleration (B&A)pedals control system, and the central control computer system. Steering wheel and B&A pedals are controlled by AC servo-motors. The integrated joystick generates the desired positions and the embedded computer controls these two servomotors to track the commands given by joystick. The control method for two servo-motors is PID control.

  • Recent trends in transport system for carrying heavy freight are that demands of a high efficiency, economic efficiency, convenience and safety are increased. Conventional transport systems were poor in transport efficiency and economic efficiency. And Safety problems can be caused to products and workers. In order to overcome these problems, an air cushion transport device with a high-pressure air is required. The air cushion transporter is a device for reducing the frictional force of floor surface and lifting the heavy freight by spraying the high-pressure air to the floor. Technology to float and transfer freight using high-pressure air is very convenient and initial cost can be reduced. In this paper, the study on the levitation performance and transport efficiency of air cushion transport system is conducted and verified that air cushion transporter has a significantly higher transport efficiency than conventional heavy handling systems.

  • The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of the blade shape on the impeller performance, for design optimizing of the high airflow impeller. First, the quantity, angle, and length of blades, which are considered to have a large influence on the impeller performance, were selected as design variables. Then, 27 cases of impeller shapes were selected according to the design of experiment (DOE). To predict the conduct of the blower based on the selected impeller shape, flow analysis was performed using the immersed solid method of ANSYS CFX. In the CFD results, the highest airflow was expected in the impeller having a combination of 50 EA, $6^{\circ}$ and 5 mm. Finally, a blower with the original impeller shape and the optimized impeller shape was fabricated using a 3D printer, and the analysis tendency and experimental tendency were verified through experiments.
