In the case of mechanical control systems, it is highly useful to be able to provide a compact model of the mechanical system to control engineers using the smallest number of variables, while still providing an accurate model. The reduced mechanical model can then be inserted into the complete mechanical control system models and used for system-level dynamic simulation. In this paper, a moment-matching based model order reduction (MOR) which reduces the number of degrees of freedom of an original finite element model via the Arnoldi process is considered to study the dynamic responses of a HDD actuator and suspension system.

In the case of control for mechanical systems, it is highly useful to be able to provide a compact model of the mechanical system to control engineers using the smallest number of state variables, while still providing an accurate model. The reduced mechanical model can then be inserted into the complete system models and used for extended system-level dynamic simulation. In this paper, moment-matching based model order reductions (MOR) using Krylov subspaces, which reduce the number of degrees of freedom of an original finite element model via the Arnoldi process, are presented to study the eigenvalue and frequency response problems of a HDD actuator and suspension system.

This paper deals with the problem of fault diagnosis for identifying a single fault when the number of assumed faults is larger than that of predictive variables. Principal component analysis (PCA) is employed to isolate and identify a single fault. PCA is a method to extract important information as reducing the number of large dimension in a process. The patterns of all assumed faults can be recognized by PCA and these can be employed whether a new fault is one of predefined faults or not. Through PCA, empirical models for analyzing patterns can be trained. When a single fault occurs, the pattern generated by PCA can be obtained and this is used to identify a fault. The performance of the proposed approach is illustrated in the actuator benchmark problem.

The performance of micro-actuators utilizing radiometric forces are studied numerically. The Knudsen number based on gas density and characteristic dimension is varied from near-continuum to highly rarefied conditions. Direct simulation Monte Carlo(DSMC) calculations have been performed to estimate the performance of the micro-actuators. In the present DSMC method, the variable hard sphere molecular model and no time counter technique are used to simulate the molecular collision kinetics. For simulation of diatomic gas flows, the Borgnakke-Larsen phenomenological model is adopted to redistribute the translational and internal energies.

This paper deals with the position and torque control of a toroidal type rotor which has a magnetic bearing structure. The proposed magnetic bearing structure supports the rotor by the repulsive forces of permanent magnets, and has a two degree of freedom for rotor position when the rotor is rotating. Permanent magnets and coils in the stator allow for a two degree of freedom control of the rotor position and torque generation by reacting with permanent magnets of the rotor. The executed gyro actuator has a number of poles such as five-phase permanent magnet motors and 10 stator coils for the rotor position control. In this study, the verification of the stability of the magnetic bearing was conducted using the equation of motion when the rotor was rotating, and the coil current commutation method for the position control and torque generation was studied. As a result, the feasibility of the proposed structure and control was verified by simulations of Finite Element Method (FEM) and experiments using the executed gyro actuator.

A number of different alternative actuation methods have been under active development for some specific applications where the traditional electromechanical actuators are difficult to apply. Recently, many of these substitutes are trying to employ new smart materials like electroactive polymers. However most of the polymeric materials are flexible and vulnerable so that they normally can not sustain external forces. Although the materials have shown a good potential to be used for alternative actuation mechanisms, no tangible industrial application is yet presented because of the reason. A conceptual design for a rectilinear motion actuator using dielectric elastomer is presented in this article. The introduced design concept might enable to produce fairly controllable rectilinear motions for various applications and the presented prototype actuator system is fully packaged in a small unit and controlled by a standard communication interface.

The electrostatic comb drive actuator is one of the main building blocks in the field of micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). Most of the comb actuators presented previously have fingers that are rectangular in shape which produce a stable, constant force output during actuation. The use of sawtooth fixed fingers in a comb drive, which were presumed to produce an increasing force output with displacement due to the increased number of regions where fringing force, the driving force of comb actuators, appear. The dimensions of the sawtooth were derived from finite element analysis (FEA) of simplified finger models with sawtooth type fingers of various dimension and were compared to the rectangular finger model that showed that the sawtooth type fingers have $7\~9$ times stronger driving force. Finally, comb drive actuators with sawtooth type and rectangular fingers were fabricated and although the gap was bigger, the comb actuator with sawtooth type fingers showed about 1.7 times greater electrostatic force than the one with rectangular fingers at equal driving voltages. In conclusion, using the proposed sawtooth type comb fingers in a comb drive makes it possible to increase its displacement or reduce the driving voltage.

섬유강화 고분자 복합재료는 섬유 형태의 강화제와 고분자 형태의 기지재료가 결합된 형태로 이는 무게 대비 고강도 및 고강성의 구조물 제작에 용이하다. 본 연구에서는 형상기억합금 와이어가 삽입된 섬유 강화 지능형 연성 복합재 구동기를 제작, 이의 재료 구성에 따른 거동 특성을 평가 하고자 한다. 구동기는 형상기억합금이 포함된 구동층과 일반 구조층으로 구성되어 한 층씩 적층되는 방식으로 제작되며 재료 구성에 따른 거동 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 일반 구조층으로 사용된 유리섬유 직물의 적층 수, 기지재료의 종류를 달리한 뒤 구동 특성을 살펴보았다. 또한, 구동 시에 요구되는 인가 전류의 양을 달리하여 최대 구동각과 최대 구동각에 도달하는 구동 시간을 측정하였다.

초음파트랜스듀서는 초점거리의 제어를 위해서 각 진동요소에 전기회로를 이용한 위상가중치를 부가하는 방식을 사용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방법은 진동요소가 증가함에 따라 전기회로가 더욱 복잡해진다. 본 연구에서는 바이몰프형 액츄에이터를 신호의 송수신을 하는PVDF의 뒷부분에 삽입하여 선집속형 트랜스듀서를 제작하였다. 이 트랜스듀서를 사용하여 액츄에이터에 인가되는 전압 변화에 의해 기계적으로 초점거리를 제어할 수 있었다. 이 방법을 사용한 결과 수중에서 선집속형 초음파 트랜스듀서의 초점거리를 곡률 반경의 10%범위까지 제어 가능함을 확인하였다.

본 논문은 오염물질 제거를 위한 외팔보 엑츄에이터 시스템 구조 및 구현에 관한 연구이다. 건축물의 외벽에 설치되는 외관 자재들 중 특히 유리의 경우 외부 노출로 인해 단기간에 오염이 된다. 이와 같은 오염물질은 미관상의 퇴색은 물론 사용자에게 보건상의 문제를 야기할 수 있다. 또한 최근 신재생에너지원으로 태양광 패널에 대한 수요가 많이 증가되고 있는데, 이와 같은 태양광 패널의 발전량은 먼지 등에 의해 감소될 수 있으며, 입사량의 감소는 결국 발전량을 저해하는 문제를 야기할 수 있기 때문에 먼지와 같은 오염물질을 주기적으로 제거하는 방안이 필요하다. 일반적으로 전문 작업자가 외벽에 붙은 오염물질을 제거하는 경우가 많은데, 안정성을 확보하였다 하더라도 현장에서 발생하는 여러 가지 돌발 변수로 인해 사고가 종종 발생하고 있다. 따라서 이와 같은 단점을 극복하기 위하여 외팔보 엑츄에이터 구조 시스템을 제안하였다. 외팔보 엑츄에이터에 대한 구조적인 시스템을 구성하고 시제품을 제작하여 동작성을 확인하였다. 최종적으로는 외팔보 엑츄에이터의 오염물질 제거에 대한 효용성을 검토하였다.
