Recently, dexterous mechanical hands have become of interest in the field of robotics. In this paper, a new symbolic C-Y notation is proposed for the kinematic modeling, and we solve the kinematics of a simplified model of POSTECH Hand 1, which is a 5 fingered, 20 degrees of freedom anthropomorphic hand. POSTECH Hand I is designed to have distinctive kinematic structure and the kinematic analysis of the hand is carried out using C-Y notation. To prove the feasibility of C-Y notation, D-H notation is also applied to the POSTECH Hand 1. In the inverse kinematic analysis, we neglect the fingertip geometry and assume the point contact with 3 degrees of freedom constraints. The configurations which optimize manipulability index[2] was obtained based on the simulation experiments on the SUN-4 graphic workstation using SUNPhigs graphic software.

In this research, the design methods of the rocket joint parts were suggested. In the first section, nonlinear finite element analyses for joint parts of a composite pressure tank were performed. In the analyses, the detailed finite element modeling was performed and complex boundary conditions(contact problem, clamping force) were considered. Secondly, several guidelines for the design of joint parts were suggested. The parametric study for geometric design variables was peformed. Finally, the parametric study result was categorized for the multi-Joint part design of the axi-symmetric composite structure.

The presence of low adhesion at the wheel-rail contact point can result in skid of train wheels, and the skid, in turn, results in flats appearing on the wheels. Thus, anti-skid control has a crucial role for safe braking and prevention from flats that could cause a disastrous train accident. This paper presents dynamic modeling of a tilting train and the brake system of the tilting train, and analyzes the anti-skid logic used in the tilting train. The validity of the analysis is demonstrated via simulation study using Simulink for skid and re-adhesion circumstances of the tilting train.

This paper deals with the finite element model of the monitor fur the simulation of directional free drop tests such as the backward and vertex free drop as well as the associated free-drop experiment. The model was made for an unconditional stable solution fur the explicit integration algorithm. It was found through the comparison between simulation and experimental results that the general behaviors at the time of impact were observed to well correlate with each other in terms of acceleration, displacement, contact force and stress of monitor components.

For the analysis of leveling process by the 3-dimensional elastic-plastic finite element method, a finite element analysis program modeling large deformation of shell has been developed. This program fur analyzing large deformation of sheet during leveling includes spring-back analysis as well as efficient contact treatment between sheet and rolls of leveler. This is verified by the simple leveling experiment with 5 rolls at laboratory. Besides the leveling examples, problems within the category of large strain and rotation, such as 3-dimensional roll-up and gutter occurrence at continuous bending-unbending process are also tested for verification of the program. The residual curvatures of strip predicted by finite element analysis are within 20% error range of the experiment. The formation and direction of anticlastic curvature or gutter during bending-unbending under tension is predicted and this agrees with the experimental results.

A three dimensional multibody modeling of a launcher system was developed and dynamic characteristics of the system was carried out. All the components were modeled as rigid bodies, All the components of system, ie; chassis, turret, cage and suspension parts, are modeled as rigid. The force interaction between the ground and tire was modeled as a point contact model. The factors were selected as cause and effect diagram of the MINITAB. To see effect of the stiffness, damping, mass at the launcher system, several cases of suspension parameters were compared and optimal values were selected. The stiffness and the damping coefficient were selected as design variables to minimize the required time for the next fire. The dynamic simulation was carried out using the ADAMS, and the MINITAB was employed for data analysis.

Recently, long large bridges are built for mass transportation. Movable bearing shoes are important components of the bridges because they support movement of translation and rotation of bridge. In design stage of the long large bridges, detailed analyses using the finite element method are performed to guarantee safety and reliability. For that purpose, three-dimensional modeling is carried out by I-DEAS software and finite element analysis by ANSYS software. Results of the analyses are reviewed and important design factors for movable bearing shoes are discussed.

When ultrasound propagates to a crack, transmitted and reflected waves are generated. These waves have useful information for the detection of the crack lying in a structure. When a crack is under residual stress, crack surfaces will contact each other and a closed crack is formed. For closed cracks, the fundamental component of the reflected and transmitted waves will be weak, and as such it is not easy to detect them. In this case, higher harmonic components will be useful. In this paper, nonlinear characteristic of a closed crack is modeled by a continuum material having a tensile-compressive unsymmetry, and the amplitude of the second harmonic wave was obtained by spectrum analysis. Variation of the second harmonic component depending on the nonlinearity of the inclusion was investigated. Two-dimensional plane strain model is considered, and finite element software ABAQUS/Explicit is used.

Non-contact underwater explosions against surface ships could cause extensive equipment damage and render the ship inoperative. As an analytical method, DDAM(dynamic design and analysis method) is used for ship shock design. In this paper, in order to verify the finite element model of large shipboard equipment, modal test of equipment was performed. Major objective of this paper is to describe shock analysis methodology for large shipboard equipment attacked to the top and bottom foundations.

This paper examines permanent magnet eddy current couplings and brakes. Specifically, the effect of permanent magnet magnetization patterns on the magnetic field and force production is investigated. The eddy current couplings and brakes employ high energy-product neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets that act on iron-backed copper drums to provide torque transfer from motor to load without mechanical contact. A 2-dimensional finite element modeling is performed to predict the electromagnetic behavior and the torque-speed characteristics of permanent magnet type eddy current couplings and brakes under constant speed operation.
