A cone shape drum polisher was developed to make up for the demerits of conventional CMP apparatus. The developed equipment has several superiorities. First of all, it can achieve uniform velocity profile on all the contact line because of its shape and easy to control the amount of slurry at the position of use. The whole area of wafer surface is exposed to the visual area except the contact line between wafer and drum, hence we can detect polishing end point more easily than any other polishing equipments. Also it has additional merits such as small foot print and polishing load. Polishing characteristics were investigated by developed equipment.

Electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD) is a unique method of shape control of small-volume droplets in microfluidic biochips that relies on modification of surface wetting characteristics using electrical methods. In this study, the droplet shape control on various dielectric surfaces by the EWOD and the effect of droplets on the contact angle as well as the shape were investigated. The droplet used in the experiment was on a sample substrate with $5{\mu}l$ of de-ionized water (DIW) using a micropipette, and wettability was measured with a contact angle meter. This study is expected to be helpful for the development of various micro-total-analysis-systems (${\mu}TAS$) and microfluidic systems with MEMS technology.

As semiconductor and MEMS devices become smaller, testing process during their production should follow such a high density trend. A circuit inspection tool "probe card" makes contact with electrode pads of the device under test (DUT). Nowadays, electrode pads are irregularly arranged and have height difference. In order to absorb variations in the heights of electrode pads and to generate contact loads, contact probes must have some levels of mechanical spring properties. Contact probes must also yield a force to break the surface native oxide layer or contamination layer on the electrodes to make electric contact. In this research, new vertical micro contact probe with bellows shape is developed to overcome shortage of prior work. Especially, novel bellows shape is used to reduce stress concentration in this design and stopper is used to change the stiffness of micro contact probe. Variable stiffness can be one solution to overcome the height difference of electrode pads.

Coupling is a mechanical component that transmits rotational force by connecting two shafts. Curvic coupling is widely used in high-performance systems because of its excellent power transmission efficiency and easy machining. However, coupling applications change dynamic behavior by reducing the stiffness of an entire system. Contact surface stiffness is an important parameter that determines the dynamic behavior of a system. In addition, the roughness profile of a contact surface is the most important parameter for obtaining contact stiffness. In this study, we theoretically establish the process of contact and bending stiffness analysis by considering the rough surface contact at Curvic coupling. Surface roughness parameters are obtained from Nayak's random process, and the normal contact stiffness of a contact surface is calculated using the Greenwood and Williamson model in the elastic region and the Jackson and Green model in the elastic-plastic region. The shape of the Curvic coupling contact surface is obtained by modeling a machined shape through an actual machining tool. Based on this modeling, we find the maximum number of gear teeth that can be machined according to the contact angle. Curvic coupling stiffness is calculated by considering the contact angle, and the calculation process is divided into stick and slip conditions. Based on this process, we investigate the stiffness characteristics according to the contact angle.

In this paper we present a novel robotic palpation method for the lump shape estimation using contact pressure distribution. Many previous researches about the robotic palpation have used a stiffness map, which is not suitable to obtain geometrical information of a lump. As a result, they require a large data set and long palpation time to estimate the lump shape. Instead of using the stiffness map, the proposed palpation method uses the difference between the normal force direction and the surface normal to detect the lump boundary and estimate its normal. The palpation trajectory is generated by the normal of the lump boundary to track the lump boundary in real-time. The proposed approach requires small data set and short palpation time for the lump shape estimation since the shape can be directly estimated from the optimally generated palpation trajectory. An experiment result shows that our method can find the lump shape accurately in real-time with small data and short time.

During stereolithography processes, the shape errors such as curl distortion and distortion of side face are generated due to the shrinkage of liquid resins. In this study, the effects of dimension of part and structure of supports on the shape error are examined. Cubic specimens which have different thicknesses are manufactured and their deformations are measured with CMM. Thicker part generates smaller curl distortion of top face and larger of bottom face. Also thicker part generates larger distortion of side face until part thickness increases to about 20mm. Larger stiffness of supports which is obtained by shorter spacing of the supports and line type contact instead of point type contact generates smaller shape error of the part.

Cam mechanism is one of the common devices used in many automatic machinery. Specially cylindrical cam generates three dimensional motions. Thus, the shape design procedure must have high accuracy. This paper proposes the shape design procedure for a cylindrical cam and follower mechanism using a relative velocity method. The relative velocity method and coordinate transformation are used to find a contact point between cam and follower. Also, the full shape of the cylindrical cam can be generated by using the geometric relationships and the contact constraints. As a result, this paper presents an example for the sape design of the cylindrical cam in order to prove the accuracy of the design procedures.

지반위에 얹혀진 구형평판을 에너지 방법으로 해석하는 방법에 대한 일반적인 전개이다. 본 논문에서는 기본적으로 지표면과 평판사이의 접촉응력을 가정한 다음 Boussinesque의 식을 적분하여 지표면 혹은 평판의 처짐을 구하는 방법을 시도하였다. 임의의 차수를 갖는 다항식과 Chebychev다항식으로 접촉응력을 가정할 때 Boussinesque의 식을 적분하는 방법을 서술하고 그 결과를 에너지법에 이용하는 과정을 설명하였다. 해석결과 임의차수를 갖는 다항식을 접촉응력 함수로 적당하지 않고, Chebychev다항식이 합당한 것으로 나타났으나 평판 Boundary의 Stress Singularity를 고려한 함수를 선택하면 훨씬 효과적일 것으로 판단되었다.

This paper presents a finger-shaped multisensor system which can measure the tyep and position of a target surface by contactl. The multi-sensor system consists of a sphere-shpaed optical tactile sensor located at the finger tip and a force/torque sensor located at the joint of a finger. The optial tactile sensor determines the type and position of the target surface using the shape and position of the CCD image of the touching area generated by a contact between the sensor and the taget surface. The force/torque sensor also determines the position and surface normal vector by applying the distributionof forces and torques t the contact point to the equations of finger shape. The measurements on the position and surface normal vector at a contact point obtined by two individual sensors are fused using a statistical method. The integrated sensor system has 0.8mm error in position measurement and 1.31$^{\circ}$ error in normal vector measurement. The developed sensor system has many applications, such as autonomous compliance control, automatic grasping and recognition, etc.
