본 논문에서는 자동차 부품업체의 조립 공정에서 압입이나 볼트, 너트 체결에 주로 사용되는 프레스와 너트러너는 정밀도와 생산성 향상이 지속적으로 요구한다. 여러 대의 압입 시스템을 복합적으로 구성한 후 동기화를 통하여 일괄적인 제어를 수행하는 생산 시스템으로 시리얼 통신을 이용한 저속의 멀티 서보 프레스 시스템을 개발하였다. 그 결과로 정밀도와 생산성이 향상되었고 제품에 대한 품질향상을 이룰 수 있었다.

Multi-Axial Testing System (MATS) is a 6-DOF loading system located at National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering (NCREE) in Taiwan for advanced seismic testing of structural components or sub-assemblages. MATS was designed and constructed for a large variety of structural testing, especially for the specimens that require to be subjected to vertical and longitudinal loading simultaneously, such as reinforced concrete columns and lead rubber bearings. Functionally, MATS consists of a high strength self-reacting frame, a rigid platen, and a large number of servo-hydraulic actuators. The high strength self-reacting frame is composed of two post-tensioned A-shape reinforced concrete frames interconnected by a steel-and-concrete composite cross beam and a reinforced concrete reacting base. The specimen can be anchored between the top cross beam and the bottom rigid platen within a 5-meter high and 3.25-meter wide clear space. In addition to the longitudinal horizontal actuators that can be installed for various configurations, a total number of 13 servo-hydraulic actuators are connected to the rigid platen. Degree-of-freedom control of the rigid platen can be achieved by driving these actuators commanded by a digital controller. The specification and information of MATS in detail are described in this paper, providing the users with a technical point of view on the design, application, and limitation of MATS. Finally, future potential application employing advanced experimental technology is also presented in this paper.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and verify the application of phase-control absolute-acceleration-feedback active tuned mass dampers (PCA-ATMD) to multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) building structures. In addition, servo speed control technique has been developed as a replacement for force control in order to mitigate the negative effects caused by friction and inertia. The essence of the proposed PCA-ATMD is to achieve a 90° phase lag for a structure by implementing the desired control force so that the PCA-ATMD can receive the maximum power flow with which to effectively mitigate the structural vibration. An MDOF building structure with a PCA-ATMD and a real-time filter forming a complete system is modeled using a state-space representation and is presented in detail. The feedback measurement for the phase control algorithm of the MDOF structure is compact, with only the absolute acceleration of one structural floor and ATMD's velocity relative to the structure required. A discrete-time direct output-feedback optimization method is introduced to the PCA-ATMD to ensure that the control system is optimized and stable. Numerical simulation and shaking table experiments are conducted on a three-story steel shear building structure to verify the performance of the PCA-ATMD. The results indicate that the absolute acceleration of the structure is well suppressed whether considering peak or root-mean-square responses. The experiment also demonstrates that the control of the PCA-ATMD can be decentralized, so that it is convenient to apply and maintain to real high-rise building structures.

전기 커넥터에 영향을 주는 프레팅 부식 요인 중 하나인 접촉 부하의 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 프레팅 부식 표본 쌍을 두께 $3{\mu}m$의 두께를 갖는 주석으로 도금된 황동 표본을 사용하여 제조하였다. 접점의 전기저항은 프레팅 부식 시험 기간 동안 측정되었다. 프레팅 주기에서 저항은 증가하였다. 저항의 변화는 3단계로 나눌 수 있다. 첫 번째 단계는 미미하고 안정적인 저항을 나타내었다. 두 번째 단계는 저항이 꾸준한 증가를 보여 주었다. 그리고 세 번째 단계는 매우 높고 간헐적인 저항을 보여주었다. 실패주기(Nf)와 접촉력(P) 사이의 관계는 다음과 같이 표현될 수 있다. 각각의 하중, 변위, 온도 등 다양한 조건에서 프레팅 테스트를 통해 다양한 환경 조건 하에서 매우 높고 간헐적인 저항에 대응 전기 커넥터의 실패주기 예측공식의 표현이 가능할 것이다.
