Every mechanical part is fabricated with the variations in its size and shape, and the allowable range of the variation is specified by the tolerance in the design stage. Geometric tolerances specify the size or the thickness of each shape entity itself or its relative position and orientation with respect to datums while considering their order of precedence. It would be desirable if the assemblability of parts could be verified in the computer when the tolerances on the parts are store together with the geometric model of the parts of an assembly and their assembled state. Therefore, a new method is proposed to represent geometric tolerances and to determine the assemblability. This method determines the assemblability by subdividing the ranges of relative motion between parts until there exists the subdivided regions that do not cause the interference.

This study was carried out to install the lifting force of a two hinge type stand mechanism by 6 Sigma process in advance. This unit is designed for the display device in order to enhance the ergonomics for effective height adjustment and maintenance at any preferred position. The unit will be very useful for the mechanism fabricated with coil springs and disc springs as a torque generator. The 6 Sigma process was applied to select two key factors among 7 elements to lift the head unit and to find out applicable tolerance securing the 3.4 ppm of defects as well as what deviation of lifting force we can expect between calculation and experiment at the design stage of development. The result of this study can be applied to various units for the optimization of the smooth lift.

나노튜브를 기반으로 한 용량성 나노 가속도계에 대한 특성을 고전적인 분자동역학 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 연구하였다 외부에서 공급된 힘을 이용하여 나노튜브의 위치를 제어할 수 있었고, 해당하는 위치에 의한 커패시턴스의 변화를 통하여 피드백 센싱을 할 수 있었다. 에너지 소모 측면을 고려하면, 나노 가속도계의 진동 특성은 초기 변위와는 무관하였으며, 이러한 측정 시스템은 진동하는 커패시턴스를 추적하여 가속도를 결정하고, 이것은 또한 공급된 힘과 용량성 힘, 반데르발스 힘, 결합력, 반발력과 같은 힘들이 균형을 이루는 위치를 결정할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a chip-level detection and a spectral-slice scheme for the tunable-transmitter/fixed-receiver (TTFR)-based asynchronous spectral phase-encoded optical codedivision multiple-access (CDMA) system combined with timeencoding. The chip-level detection can enhance the tolerance of multiple access interference (MAI) because the channel collision does not occur as long as there is at least one weighted position without MAI. Moreover, the spectral-slice scheme can reduce the interference probability because the MAI with the different frequency has no adverse effects on the channel collision rate. As a result, these techniques mitigate channel collisions. We analyze the channel collision rate theoretically, and show that the proposed system can achieve a lower channel collision rate in comparison to both conventional systems with and without the time-encoding method.

This paper proposes a novel fault-tolerant gait for Quadruped robots using energy stability margins. The previously developed fault-tolerant gaits for quadruped robots have a drawback of having marginal stability margin, which may lead to tumbling. In the process of tumbling, the potential energy of the center of gravity goes through a maximum. The larger the difference between the potential energy of the center of gravity of the initial position and that of this maximum, the less the robot tumbles. Hence this difference of potential energy, dubbed as Energy Stability Margin (ESM), can be regarded as the stability margin. In this paper, a novel fault-tolerant gait is presented which gives positive ESM to a quadruped robot suffering from a locked joint failure. Positive ESM is obtained by adjusting foot positions between leg swing sequences. The advantage of the proposed fault-tolerant gait is demonstrated in a case study where a quadruped robot with a failed leg walks on a even slope.

A method to evaluate the position performance for a stochastically defined planar robot manipulator is presented. Performance is defined as the operational reliability based upon the positional errors of the manipulator tip. An analytical method is developed and applied to a two-link robot manipulator through forward kinematics. This study includes uncertainties in the link length, pin center location and radial clearance. By virtue of the effective link length model, only the nominal manipulator model and statistical information on the uncertainties are required. The results from the analytical method is compared to those from the Monte Carlo simulation.

The usage of beam scanning type laser marker is rapidly increasing in the field of semiconductor equipment. A device called ″beam adjuster″ is employed to adjust the visible diode laser, which points the marking position for various setting. The device is very sensitive to manufacturing tolerance and assembly condition. Axiomatic approach has been applied to the design of the device. An existing design is analyzed based on the Independence Axiom. The existing design is found to violate the axiom. Two new designs are proposed to satisfy the Independence Axiom. The Information Axiom is utilized to evaluate the designs. A design is selected to have the minimum information content. The significance of this research is that a full cycle of axiomatic design is applied to a real engineering product.

The main purpose of this study is to highlight the importance and validity of introduction of stress-concerned aptitude items for the safety critical workers, corresponding to the radical environmental change in railway industry. To attain this purpose, the author performed a brief literature survey, and scrutinized the western practice in detail. Then, the necessity of introduction of stress-related aptitude items was suggested, based on the statistics resulted from a survey which has been once performed for experts and drivers. The final conclusion is that the present selection system through which the safety critical workers are being staffed, without any rigorous screening mechanisms cannot but have some limitations. So, an overall restructuring for aptitude management system needs to be done in order for us to advance to the position of upper-class railway country.

This paper proposed a dual actuator using bimorph PZT for information storage device based on prove array NSOM(Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy). The gap between the media and the optical head should be maintained within the optical tolerance. Therefore, a new actuator having high sensitivity is required. Bimorph PZT, which has fast access time and high sensitivity characteristic, is suitable for this precise actuating system. This paper is focused on derivation of mathematical model of dual bimorph PZT actuator and control algorithm. Hamilton's principle was used for mathematical model. The model is verified by FEA(Finite Element Analysis), and compared with experimental results. Different control algorithms were used f3r two bimorph PZT actuating same direction and opposite direction. The gap between recording media and optical head was controlled within 20nm in experiment.

In order to set up the design rule of micro optical bench, optical coupling efficiencies of two sets of test benches are calculated. Simple linear connections of incoming and outgoing optical fibers with and without ball lenses are designed. Positional errors that are possible in actual fabrication processes are considered in the calculations and their tolerances are determined from 3dB conditions. For a simple fiber-to-fiber connection, the working distance is limited to $2.7\mu\textrm{m}$ and tilt error $5.8^{\circ}$. When ball lenses are located in front of each fiber, the working distance can be extended over $60\mu\textrm{m}$ , but the positional errors have the strong interaction among position parameters and thus should be considered simultaneously for tolerance design.
