Quasti-static cutting force variations in milling process are measured indirectly using spindle motor current. Quasi-static sensitivity of the spindle motor current is higher than that of the feed motor current. Magnitude of the spindle motor current is independent of cutting direction. The linear relationship between the cutting force and the spimdle motor RMS current at various spindle rotational speed is obtained. Frequency/ Voltage(F/V) converter voltage is measured to identify the spindle speed and to determine the cutting force at various spindle speeds. Overload on the tool during milling process can be detected using the proposed indirect cutting force measurement. Based on these measurements, cutting force is regulated at a constant level by feedrate control.

With the increase of ship size and speed, the loading on the propeller is increasing, which in turn increases the rotational speed in the propeller slipstream. The rudder placed in the propeller slip stream is therefore subject to severe cavitation with the increased angle of attack due to the increased rotational induction speed of the propeller. In the present paper the surface panel method, which has been proved useful in predicting the sheet cavitation on the propeller blade, is applied to solve the cavity boundary value problem on the rudder. The problem is then solved numerically by discretizing the rudder and cavity surface elements of the quadrilateral panels with constant strengths of sources and dipoles. The strengths of the singularities are determined satisfying the boundary conditions on the rudder and cavity surfaces. The extent of the cavity, which is unknown a priori, is determined by iterative procedure. Series of numerical experiments are performed increasing the degree of complexity of the rudder geometry and oncoming flows from the simple hydrofoil case to the real rudder in the circumferentially averaged propeller slipstream. Numerical results are presented with experimental results.

The characteristics of involute gear pump with eccentric gap between gear tip and housing have been studied in terms of volumetric flow rate and/or flow efficiency. The analysis has been done with FLUENT/R-13 employing with k-e model for the turbulent flow under the given conditions of rotational velocity, gap distance and outlet pressure. The effect of parameters continues to be shown for the eccentric gear as same as for the concentric gear such that the volumetric flow rate (volumetric efficiency) increases as the increases of rotational velocity and decrease of gap distance and of outlet pressure. In the meantime, the shape of pressure build-up appears to be exponentially increase as gap distance decreases at upstream position. The pressure is rapidly developing in the upstream and remains almost constant thereafter in the downstream of circumferential flow path. This typical characteristics becomes more profound as eccentricity increases. The pump performance for the eccentric gear pump with minimum gap distance shows better than its concentric counterpart. However, it shows not for the concentric pump with minimum gap distance. Therefore, the gap reduction due to eccentricity may be positive for pump performance.

This study is related to the surface subsidence due to the collapse of a underground void during earthquakes. The amount of the settlement due to the collapse of a underground void will depend on the depth of the void, the initial condition of unit weight of sand, the size and type of foundation, the strength of earthquake, the size of a void, etc. The purpose of the paper is to estimate the amount of the subsidence, analyse the factors affecting the subsidence, and develop a program determining the probability of the damages to structures in terms of absolute and differential settlement and rotational settlement. On the base of the results obtained in this study, when the depth of a void is constant and the width of the void increases, the change of the subsidence factor due to the angle of internal friction and the actual effective factor of the void become smaller than that due to the unit weight of sand deposits. In the same condition, the probabilities of damages due to the absolute and differential settlement increase, and those due to the rotational settlement decrease.

Inertia friction welding, a relatively recent innovation in the art of joining materials, is a forge-welding process that releases kinetic energy stored in the flywheel as frictional heat when two parts are rubbed together under the right conditions. In a comparatively short time, the process has become a reliable method for joining ferrous, and dissimilar metals. The process is based on thrusting one part, attached to a flywheel and rotating at a relatively high speed, against a stationary part. The contacting surfaces, heated to plastic temperatures, are forged together to produce a reliable, high-strength weld. Welds are made with little or no workpiece preparation and without filler metal or fluxes. However, In order to obtain a good weld, the determination of the optimum weld parameters is an important problem. Especially, because the amount of the flywheel mass will be determined according to the initial rotating velocity values at the constant thrust load, the initial rotating velocity is an important factor to affect a weld character of the inertia-welded IN713C-SAE8630, which is used for the wheel-shafts of turbine rotors or turbochargers, exhausting valves, etc. In this paper, the effects of initial rotational velocity on a weld character of inertia-welded IN713C-SAE8630 was studied through considerations of weld parameters determination, micro-structural observations and tensile tests. The results are as the following: 1) As initial rotating velocity was reduced to 267 FPM, cracks and carbide stringers were completely eliminated in the micro-structure of welded zone. 2) As initial rotating velocity was reduced and flywheel mass was increased correspondingly, the maximum welding temperatures were decreased and the plastic working in the weld zone was increased. 3) As initial rotating velocity was progressively decreased and carbides were decreased, the tensile strengths were increased. 4) And also the fracture location moved out of the weld zone and the tensile tests produced, the failures only in the cast superalloy IN713C which do not extend into the weld area. 5) The proper initial rotating velocity could be determined as about 250 thru 350 FPM for the better weld character.

The supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) Brayton power cycle is more effective than the conventional power cycle and is more widely applicable to heat sources. The inlet working conditions of the compressor have a higher influence on their operating performance because the thermophysical properties of the CO₂ vary dramatically close to the critical point. The flow in the sCO₂ compressor is simulated and the compressor performance is analyzed. The results show that the sCO₂ centrifugal compressor operates outside of its intended parameters due to the change in inlet temperature. The sCO₂ compressor requires more power as the inlet temperature increases. The compressor power is 582 kW when the inlet temperature is at 304 K. But the power is doubled when the inlet temperature increases to 314 K, and the change in the isentropic efficiency is within 5%. The increase in the inlet temperature significantly reduces the risk of condensation in centrifugal compressors. When the heat load of the sCO₂ power system changes, the inlet pressure to the turbine can be kept constant by regulating the rotational speed of compressors. With the increase in rotational speed, the incidence loss and condensation risk increase.

The current density in copper electroplating is directly related with the productivity and then to increase the productivity, the increase in current density is required. To obtain the high mass flow rate, rotating disk electrode(RDE) was employed. High rotational speed in RDE can increase the mass flow rate and then high speed electroplating was possible using RDE to control mass flow. Two types of cathode were used. One is RDE and another is rotating cylindrical electrode(RCE). A constant-current, constant-voltage and linear sweep voltammetry were applied to investigate current and voltage relationship. The maximum current density without evolution of hydrogen gas was increased with rotational speed. Over 400 rpm, maximum current density was higher than 1000 A/$m^2$. The diffusion coefficients of copper calculated from the slope of the plots are $5.5{\times}10^6\;cm^2\;s^{-1}$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and $10.5{\times}10^6\;cm^2\;s^{-1}$ at $62^{\circ}C$. The stable voltage without evolution of hydrogen gas was -0.05 V(vs Ag/AgCl). Additives were added to prevent dendritic growth on cathode deposits. The surface roughness was analyzed with UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The reflectance of the copper surface over 600 nm was measured and was related with the surface roughness. As the surface roughness improved, the reflectance was also increased.

In this study, the heat input conditions suitable for the AZ61 magnesium alloy were derived by controlling the welding speed at a constant rotational speed. In addition, from an economic point of view, industry demands higher welding speeds. Therefore,the effects of the welding speed were studied. The rotational speed applied was 800rpm, and the welding speed was varied from 100 to 500mm/min to evaluate the behavior of the welded regions. Tensile and hardness tests were conducted to examine the mechanical properties. Optical microscopy was used to observe the microstructure and soundness of the welded regions. Defects were observed at the welded region when the welding speed was more than400mm/min. As the welding speed increased, the grain size of the stir zone decreased and the hardness tended to increase proportionally. When the rotational speed was 800 rpm and the welding speed was 200mm/min and 300mm/min, there wereno defects in the welded region and excellent mechanical properties were recorded. In addition, the joint efficiencies were 100.5% and 101.2%, respectively, and the ultimate tensile strength was similar to that of the base metal. Fracture of the tensile specimen occurred between the advancing side and stir zone, and the fracture location coincided with the region where the hardness decreased temporarily.

We analyzed the MnIr thickness dependence of torque signals measured in exchange coupled CoFe/MnIr ($t_{AF}$) bilayers. The measured torque signals were compared with calculated ones by Stoner-Wohlfarth model. The exchange coupling anisotropy $J_c$ was considered for the model calculation between ferromagnetic (F) and antiferromagnetic (AF) layers with uniaxial anisotropy constant of $K_F$ and $K_{AF}$, respectively. The rotational losses were appeared in the range of $0.5t_c$ < $t_{AF}$ < $t_c$ ($=J_c/K_{AF}$) by the unpinned AF layer. While, the unidirectional anisotropy ($J_k$) was caused by the pinned AF layer at $t_{AF}$ > $t_c$. The critical thickness of MnIr layer was $t_c$ = 3.4 nm in CoFe/MnIr bilayers. The rotational losses behavior as shown in $t_{AF}$ = 3 nm sample were explained by the random orientation of the easy axis of AF grains. The unidirectional anisotropy obtained from torque signal of $t_{AF}$ = 10 nm sample was $J_k=0.63J_c$. Thus, the unidirectional anisotropy can be enhanced up to $J_k=J_c$ by aligning the AF easy axis.

For the fast growing Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) TV market, it is essential to make the LCD panels to show moving images without any visual difficulties such as blurring or tailing. Owing to reduction of the cell gap and the improved Liquid Crystal (LC) mixtures with low viscosity, it is possible that our S-IPS TFT-LCDs feature a response time (R/T) as fast as 1-frame time (16ms) for a white-black operation and less than a 16rns in all gray levels without Over Driving Circuit (ODC) technology. Currently, mass production of the large size IPS panels with high speed has been successfully achieved. In order to achieve faster response time, new LC mixtures have been developed, optimizing the physical properties of rotational viscosity (${\gamma}$1) and elastic constants (Kii). Also, the LC mixtures with high elastic constant allow us to increase the cell gap. In this paper, realization of fast switching time in IPS mode with optimized '${\gamma}$1/Kii' parameter in the LC mixtures forms the core of this paper.
