The back emf harmonics of a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor is a major source of torque ripple. For torque control applications including column fitted MDPS (motor driven power steering) systems, it is essential to reduce the mechanical vibrations due to torque ripples at low speeds. In this paper, a torque ripple reduction algorithm for interior PM synchronous motors is proposed. The harmonic currents that cancel the $6^{th}$ order torque harmonic are added to the nominal dq currents for MTPA (maximum torque per ampere) operation. The compensated harmonic currents are derived from flux linkage harmonics based on a FFT analysis of the back emf harmonics. Simulation and experimental results verify that the $6^{th}$ order torque harmonic and THD of the torque ripple are reduced by compensating the dq harmonic currents.

In this paper, in order to analyze dynamic characteristics of automobile steering system consisting of many components, natural frequencies and transfer functions of each component and total system are found on FFT by experiments. Then, the data are transmitted to commercial package program, CADA-PC. By analyzing the data, the mode shape of each natural frequency and damping values are obtained. Also, the function of rubber coupling in column and telescoping effects on system are considered. C.A.E commercial program are used to compare with the results of experiments. For finite element modeling, I-DEAS is used. Data processing and post processing are operated on NASTRAN and XL, respectively. The ball-bearing and the linkage of shaft with column are modeled by spring elements. Stiffness is modified from the results of experiments. The results of those show close agreement. In the mode shape of total system, wheel mode is dominant at lower frequency while the column mode is main mode at higher . The role of rubber coupling in vibration isolation is clear on mode shape. Telescoping function makes natural frequency of column changed.

Recently, strategic information systems planning (SISP) has emerged as one of the necessities in 15 activities and organizational operations as a whole. Although various SISP researches have been done, in few studies have attention been given to the process employed in organizations to plan and implement SISP. To address SISP problems in terms of the process-oriented view, this paper employs a dynamic viewpoint on the basis of innovation-process model As a result of in-depth interviews with IS managers of nine Korean banks, this research found slightly different problems appear in each stage of the process. While problems cited in prior researches were observed, new ones are also appeared such as "finding out relative outsourcers" "political problems between functions which lead the process and others which alienated," the "necessity of steering committees, etc. Meanwhile, problems such as "top management concerns" or "cost," which suggested as significant problems in prior researches, appeared relatively insignificant This study has limitations as a qualitative and exploratory one. However, in view of further studies, the linkage between SISP practices and innovation process theory will allow researches linking characteristics of both fields. Furthermore, researches which view the SISP process as a comprehensive knowledge transfer process will be possible.

Ball joint is a rotating and swiveling element that is typically the interface between two parts. In an automobile, the ball joint is the component that connects the control arms to the steering knuckles by playing a role of bearing. The ball joint can also be installed in linkage systems for motion control applications. This paper describes the simulation strategy for a ball joint analysis, considering manufacturing process. Its manufacturing process can be divided into plugging and spinning. Then, the interested response is selected as the stress distribution generated between its ball and bearing. In this paper, a commercial code of NX DAFUL 2.0 using an implicit integration method is introduced to calculate the response. In addition, the gap analysis is performed to investigate the fitness. Also, the optimum design is suggested through case studies.
