In this paper, development of mobile robot for the inspection of hull surface was mentioned. In the sea, it is difficult to proceed with the visual inspection of hull side and thus mobile robot for checking the status could be run with strap-on its surface. To do this, permanent magnet module to generate magnetic force between hull surface and mobile robot, and structure to minimize variance of the force under curvature circumstance were considered on the design. Based on the design, mobile robot with four NdFeB, four driving wheels and image aquisition module was applied. Load experiment to check the adhesive force, slip test during stop state and driving test to measure driving speed were executed. From the experiments 13 Kgf adhesive force was obtained and slip was not happened until 8 Kgf load on the inclined plate. Driving speed of mobile robot was measured at 0.82 m/s corresponding to 6.5 ampere. We confirmed the effectiveness of developed mobile robot by experiments to check its characteristics.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) tire cord has relatively lower adhesion properties caused by limited reacting sites. In order to improve the adhesion force between PET tire cord and rubber, an additional process to activate surface of PET has been employed. Atmospheric plasma was used to substitute the chemical finishing process of PET tire cord as a green dipping process. Contact angle was measured to confirm surface change of PET after plasma treatment. The treated PET tire cords with/without resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex(RFL) and unvulcanized rubber were vulcanized in a testing mold at $160^{\circ}C$. After atmospheric plasma treatment of PET tire cord, adhesion force was somewhat increased under some conditions.

The machinability of calicium-deoxidized steel is studied in turning by being compared with that of Fe-Si deoxidized steel under a given set of cutting condition. Tool life, cutting force and cutting mechanism are examined on a few sorts of steel. It is found that adhesive layer "Belag" is developed on the cemented carbide tool and the peak value is observed at the cutting speed of 300m/min followed by gradual increase in the thickness of Belag with the increase of cutting speed. the maximum thickness of Belag is also shown at the feed of 0.3mm/rev. On the other hand, the tool life of carbide tool is more favorable than that of high speed steel (SKH 9) in cutting calcium- deoxidized steel. It is considered that the steel deoxidized with Ca-Si shows better machinability a little than that with Fe-Si. However, the cutting force and the shear angle of the former are similar to those of the latter in turning.n turning.

In this paper, we propose the mathematical model for the vehicle system and the observer for adhesion force. To model the dynamic properties of vehicle system, we have considered two fundamental parts. The first part is the motion equations for vehicle based on Newton's second law. The second part is the torque dynamics of the traction motor. These parts are affected by outer conditions such as adhesive coefficient, running resistance and gradient resistance. The each parts are presented by the numerical formula. From two equations, we get the observer on adhesion force. Simulation results show that the proposed observer have the good performance compared with the normal observer.

This study analyzes the behavior of adhesion and friction according to the pore size of nanohoneycomb structures in atomic force microscope (AFM). Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) films are fabricated as nanohoneycomb structures. According to the pore diameters of the nanohoneycomb structures, the adhesive forces and the frictional coefficients arc obtained in AFM, and the behaviors are analyzed in the view of the contact area between the sphere particle and nanohoneycomb substrate. The effective Young's moduli of the nanohoneycomb structures are measured from the nanoindentation tests, and the contact areas at zero applied load are calculated by combining the porosity of the nanohoneycomb structures and the contact radius determined from JKR and DMT theory.

Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) has been widely used in micro/nano-scale studies and applications for the last few decades. In this work, wear characteristics of silicon-based AFM tip was investigated. AFM tip shape was observed using a high resolution SEM and the wear coefficient was approximately calculated based on Archard's wear equation. It was shown that the wear coefficient of Si and ${Si}_3$$N_4$ tips were in the range of ${10}^{-1}$~${10}^{-3}$and ${10}^{-3}$~${10}^{-4}$, respectively. Also, the effect of relative humidity and sliding distance on adhesion-induced tip wear was investigated. It was found that the tip wear has more severe for harder counter surface materials. Finally, the probable wear mechanism was analyzed from the adhesive and abrasive interaction point of view.

In these days, the deterioration of bridges make it necessary for decks to be replaced and it is inevitable to apply the precast decks to minimize the traffic control induced from the deck placement. This precast deck construction makes the physically discontinuous interface between old and new concrete. Usually, the adhesive force at this interface are ignored. However, for crack behavior and reliable long term behavior, it is required to evaluate the exact value of the cohesive force at the interface. This research investigates the cohesive characteristics at the interface. Four different interface surface conditions are tested and three different methods are used to measure the cohesive strength at the interface. In addition, cohesive characteristic at the surface between precast panels are investigated with different interface surface conditions.

For the bolted joint of the composite structure, quasi-isotropic stacking is generally used to increase the bearing strength. For the bolted joint of uni-directional composite, the fatigue life limit of the bolted joint can be improved by applying clamping force though the static strength is still very low. In this paper, the static and fatigue characteristics of hybrid joint are investigated which can overcome the disadvantage of the bolted joint of uni-directional composite under static loading by applying adhesive joining. The experimental result shows that the static strength and fatigue life can be improved by applying clamping force to the hybrid joint and the hybrid joint is a good solution for the efficiency of the composite structures.

An experimental investigation is reported on the wear mechanism of CBN cutting tools. The cutting experiments were conducted on a lathe equipped with a tool dynamometer for cutting force measurement. The investigation of wear mechanism was executed by observing the worn tools using tool microscope and scanning electron microscope. Results indicate that the flank wear occurs dominantly by abrasive wear mode and the crater wear by adhesive wear mode. The results also indicate that the width of flank wear is closely related with the passive component of cutting force.

Surface Permanent-Magnetic-Synchronous-Generator (SPMSG) discussed in the present study has operational characteristics such as high rotational speed over 1,000 rpm and centrifugal force of 12 kN·m for each magnet. Structure-development analysis for the minimization of rotor-core weights and the maximization of thermal emission is performed by applying the aluminum-laminated cap which combines the advantages of IPM and SPM in order to overcome the difficulty that attaching the magnet to rotor-core only with an adhesive. In this study, the simulations in terms of structure and electromagnetic were performed with the variable parameters such as shape and thickness of laminated-cap and division method of magnet. As a result, condition for minimized centrifugal force with minimum loss is derived.
