This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation on the ground deformation in deep excavation with emphasis on the groundwater lowering. Using the stress-pore pressure coupled analysis Consideration to the effect of ground excavation and groundwater interaction were carried out and a series of two-dimensional finite element model was employed to perform a parametric study on a wide range of soil profile and initial ground water table condition.

A multiplicative plane partition is a two-dimensional array of positive integers larger than 1 that are nonincreasing both from left to right and top to bottom and whose multiple is a given number n. For a natural number n, let $f_2(n)$ be the number of multiplicative plane partitions of n. In this paper, we prove $f_2(n)\;{\leq}\;n^2$ and a table of them up to $10^5$ is provided.

In order to eliminate position errors existing at the steady state in the motion control of robotic maniprlators, a new fuzzy control algorithm is proposed using three variables, position error, velocity error and integral of position errors as input variables of the fuzzy controller, This controller is applied to the tracking control of robotic manipulators in Cartesian space. Three dimensional look-up table is used to reduce the computational time in rel-time control. Simulation and experimental studies are conducted to evaluate the control performance for the two axis direct drive SCARA robot system.

A pick-and-place operation in 3-dimensional environment is basic operation for human and multi-purpose manipulators. However, there may be a difficult problem for such manipulators. Especially, if the object cannot be moved with a single grasp, regrasping, which can be a time-consuming process, should be carried out. Regrasping, given initial and final pose of the target object, is a construction of sequential transition of object poses that are compatible with two poses in the point of grasp configuration. This paper presents a novel approach for solving regrasp problem. The approach consists of a preprocessing and a planning stage. Preprocessing, which is done only once for a given robot, generates a look-up table which has information of kinematically feasible task space of end-effector through all the workspace. Then, using the table planning automatically determines possible intermediate location, pose and regrasp sequence leading from the pick-up to put-down grasp. Experiments show that the presented is complete in the total workspace. The regrasp planner was combined with existing path.

The timing characteristics of an ASIC are analyzed based on the propagation delays of each gate and interconnect wire. The gate delay can be modeled using the two-dimensional delay table whose index variables are the input transition time and the output load capacitance. The AWE technique can be adopted as an algorithm to compute the interconnect delay. Since these delays are affected by the interaction to the two-dimensional delay table and the AWE technique. A method to model this effect has been proposed through the effective capacitance and the gate driver model under the assumption of single driving gate. This paper presents a new technique to handle the multiple CMOS gates driving interconnect wire by extending previous approach. This technique has been implemented in C language and applied to several interconnect circuits driven by multiple CMOS gates. In most cases, we found a few tens of speed-up and only a few percents of errors in computing both of gate and interconnect delays, compared to SPICE.

The evaluation of Varian enhanced dynamic wedges (EDW) were performed in terms of quality assurance in external radiotherapy. The seven (10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 60 deg.) EDW angles were evaluated for 6 and 15 MV x-rays in Varian Linac. The STT (segmented treatment table) for a field were calculated and compared with actual movement of the jaw using Dynalog files in order to evaluate mechanical operation. Two dimensional array detector and an ionization chamber were used to measure dose distributions in phantom from Linac. The mechanical movement of jaw was agreed with its expectation and two dimensional dose distributions including beam profiles were in agreement with RTP data approximately. In comparison with RTP calculations the percentage difference of output dose values for 100 MU irradiation was less than 2.9% and measured wedge factor was less than 2.6%. These results are shown that there is no problem in clinical applications of EDW equipped on this linac.

In this paper, we introduce an efficient three-dimensional magnetic field mapping system for a Deflection Yoke (DY) in Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT). A three-axis Hall probe mounted in a small cylindrical bar and three-stepping motors placed in a non-magnetic frame were utilized for the mapping. Prior to the mapping starts, the inner contour of DY was measured by a laser sensor to make a look-up table for inner shape of DY. Three-axis magnetic fields are then digitized by a three-dimensional Hall probe. The results of the mapping can be transformed into various output formats such as multi pole harmonics of magnetic fields. Field shape in one, two and three- dimensional spaces can also be displayed. In this paper, we present the features of this mapping device and some analysis results.

This paper presents a quasi-analytical method using integral equations to obtain head distributions in unsaturated porous media with different hydrogeologic properties. One-dimensional soultion algorithms were developed for two cases of boundary conditions at the top: 1) constant head and 2) constant flux. Water table elevation at the bottom was assumed known for both cases. The methodology was applied to a fly ash disposal facility in an alluvium area. The results showed that the pressure head distributions had high nonlinearity with large gradients slightly above the interface of two media which made preliminary numerical solutions implausible. The developed method helped to structure finite element grids for improving convergence and accuracy.

5-axis laser cutting has great advantages when it is applied to three dimensional machining requiring high cutting quality. For developing 5-axis CNC laser cutting systems, however, many problems such as rotating a laser head or a working table, 5-axis servo-control mechanism, tool path generation and post-processing, and collision avoidance between a laser head and a work-piece should be solved. In this paper, we deal with developing a motion simulator for 5-axis laser cutting machine with a nutating cutting head whose rotational axis is in an inclined plane. Two essential modules such as post-processor and cutting motion simulator was developed based on a commercial 3D CAD of UG-NX. The developed system was applied to three dimensional cutting products and showed the validity of the developed methods.

Though rocket nozzle flow is very important to the rocket performance, the direct measurement is very difficult because of high temperature and high pressure gas flow. Then the experiment utilizing the hydraulic analogy has been developed for such a problem. Supersonic flows through an axisymmetric De Laval nozzle of solid rocket motor was simulated in a 2-D sluice-type water-table designed and manufactured utilizing hydraulic analogy. Methods to minimize or account for non-analogous effects in the hydraulic system must be reviewed for the quantitative application of the hydraulic analogy. In this application the water table is inclined slightly, so that gravity acceleration has a small component in the direction of motion, thus compensating for the effect of friction. Flow visualization leads to better understanding of the analogous system. Within the experimental errors, it is shown that the hydraulic analogy can be used as an effective tool for the study of two dimensional isentropic flows of gases in many fields.
