This paper presents modeling and simulation of the bump foil bearings with consideration of the elastic behavior of the foil and gas compressibility. Heshmat had originally introduced the simple compliance model to estimate the EHL(elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication) performance. But this approach can not consider the deflection of top foil at the edge of bearing, so model is insufficient to analyze in case that the eccentricity ratio is greater than I. So the top foil is considered as a simple beam model supported by linear spring elements, and the bump foil deflection can be simple compliance model. The EHL calculations are performed for convention rigid type, classical foil type, variable pitch type and double bump type toil bearings. This paper presents that 2nd or 3rd generation bearings have excellent performance in every speeds.

LRB(Lead rubber bearing) has small resistance force against slowly acting loadings such as temporal and creep loadings vice versa large resistance force against rapid loadings such as earthquake and braking loadings. By those mechanical characteristics, it has the advantage to reduce longitudinal load acting on abutments and piers, and moreover to in1prove the running stability of train by restricting the behavior of bridge under the required level. In this study, a stability evaluation method of CWR on the bridge with LRB is presented. Several parametric studies are carried to investigate how LRB contributes to the improvement of CWR stability.

Bearingless SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) is researched for high speed or special applications which can not use mechanical bearing such as bio pump. In this paper, a novel hybrid pole bearingless SRM is presented. The proposed hybrid pole bearingless SRM has salient poles for torque and suspending force production. Motor torque is controlled by the phase currents in torque pole windings, and the suspending force is controlled by suspending currents in four suspending windings for radial direction suspension. Because the proposed bearingless SRM has divided pole structure, mutual effects between torque current and suspending current are very lower than the conventional one's. From this structure, the number of power devices for power converter can be reduced for bearingless SRM driving. The proposed hybrid pole bearing less SRM is verified by the FEM analysis and experimental results.

This paper describes the design of micro machine tools system for mechanical machining of micro/meso scale mechanical parts. The micro machining systems such as $\mu-Late$, $\mu-milling/drilling$ machine and $\mu-grinding$ machine are the basic elements constructing $\mu-factory$ which gains more attention recently because of increasing needs of mico and nano-parts in various industrial and medical area. A miniaturized 3-axis milling machine with VCM stage and air spindle and palm-top size micro-late are designed, and air bearing stage and stepwise linear motion system with PZT are studied for motion system. The micro cutting characteristics are investigated experimentally, and reconfigurable machine structures are also considered.

The thermal deformation of a machine tool spindle influences the performance of the manufacturing systems for precision products. In this research, thermal analysis of a high speed machine tool spindle with the rolling bearing and the built-in motor is carried out by using Finite Difference Method. The thermal boundary conditions describing the heat generation in the bearing and built-in motor are considered in the simulation. And various convective boundary conditions are assumed with the empirical formula in the references. From the simulation results, the characteristics of each element affecting the dynamic thermal behaviour of the machine tool spindle system have been clarified. Therefore, this model can be well applied to the future development of the high speed spindle systems.

This paper presents the new structure of a spindle motor for hard disk drive (HDD). It can produce axial force as well as torque without a pulling plate or a pulling magnet required for the normal operation of a hydrodynamic bearing in rotating-shaft structure. The proposed models have different air gap length along the axial direction by changing the thickness of permanent magnet (PM). One has a single slope and the other has double slopes on the surface of PM. For the design of the proposed models, variables are defined and its effects on the motor performances are investigated by 3-demensional finite element analysis (FEA). The equi-performance curves are investigated for the main characteristics of the spindle motor such as generated torque, axial force and torque ripple ratio. The validity of the proposed models is verified by the feasibility study and performance evaluation.

As environmental problem in course of construction has been a matter of interest, noise and vibration in the process of piling are considered as a serious problem. For this reason, the use of SIP method inserting pile as soon as boring and cement grouting is rapidly increasing for preventing vibration and noise. But a resonable bearing capacity formula for SIP method does not exit and even the standard specification for domestic condition isn't formed, though the lateral friction between cement paste and the ground does an important role and boring depth largely influences to the design bearing capacity, applying the SIP method . Therefore, the lateral friction was analyzed after the direct shear test worked with the lateral face of SIP and the soil.

The microarchitecture of trabecular bone plays a significant role in mechanical strength due to its load-bearing capability. However, the complexity of trabecular microarchitecture hinders the evaluation of its morphological characteristics. We therefore propose a new classification method based on static multiscale theory and dynamic finite element method (FEM) analysis to visualize a three-dimensional (3D) trabecular network for investigating the influence of trabecular microarchitecture on load-bearing capability. This method is applied to human vertebral trabecular bone images obtained by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) through which primary trabecular bone is successfully visualized and extracted from a highly complicated microarchitecture. The morphological features were then analyzed by viewing the percolation of load pathways in the primary trabecular bone by using the stress wave propagation method analyzed under impact loading. We demonstrate that the present method is effective for describing the morphology of trabecular bone and has the potential for morphometric measurement applications.

The target localization using the line arrays buried in the seabed is a difficult problem due to the complex sea bottom characteristics and need to compensate the wave propagation effect to localize the target accurately Sound speed mismatch in the seabed causes a bias in the target bearing estimation and induces the localization error. In this paper we describe a target localization method with improved accuracy of target bearing and localization by calibration the sound speed in the seabed. The proposed algorithm is verified through the ocean data.
