Non-uniform minute deformation of a cylinderical workpiece resulted from the heat treatment process prior to the grinding makes it diffeclt to control the approaching feedrate of a grinding wheelto a workpiece optimallywithout on-site detection of the grinding states in the plunge grinding. The 4-stage model of the plunge grinding process is proposed according to the state of contact between grinding wheel and workpiece ; precontact, partial contact, entire contact and spark-out. Despite of being scrious to the precision of workpiece finished, the duration of spark-out is determined empirically. The purpose of this research is to develop a monitoring/control system for saving non- production time and setting the optimal spark-out time based on sensor information in the plunge grinding using AE and ultra sonic sensor.

The sealing technique is widely used for repairing the cracks on the surface of concrete and preventing their expansion in the future. However, it is difficult to ensure the safety of the workers when sealing large structures in inconvenient working environments. This paper presents the development of a sealing robot system to seal various shapes of concrete surface in rough conditions for a long time. If the robot can maintain the desired contact force, the cracks can be completely sealed. An impedance force tracking controller with slope estimator is proposed to calculate the surface slope in real time using the robot position. It predicts the next point in order to prevent the robot from disengaging from the contact surface owing to quick slope changes. The proposed method has been verified by experimental results.

The influences of contact time and ratio of food to microorganism (F/M) on uptake of wastewater organic matter in a short contact process were investigated using three activated sludge batch reactors fed with synthetic wastewater, sewage and livestock wastewater. About 64% of influent soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) in the synthetic wastewater and 61% of SCOD in the sewage and 43% of SCOD in the diluted livestock wastewater were adsorbed into the activated sludge within 30 min. The specific mass of organic matter uptaken in the synthetic wastewater was 55 mg SCOD/g mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS). In the same manner, 20 and 14 mg SCOD/g MLSS were calculated as the values in the sewage and livestock wastewater, respectively.

This paper presents analysis of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of ball bearings, in which surface roughness is considered. A lot of time is required to obtain a solution in the case of EHL analysis where surface roughness is considered, because the analysis requires a variety of analytic nodes. To save time, we use the full approximation scheme (FAS) among multilevel methods. We analyze the results of EHL and contact analyses in terms of pressure. We also compare the results for smooth and rough surfaces with respect to film thickness. We confirm that the film pressure decreases as compared to contact pressure because of the presence of lubricants between the ball and the raceway. Furthermore, in the case when surface roughness is considered, the film pressure increases because of contact asperities. Therefore, surface roughness should be considered when designing ball bearings.

Using plasmas, hydrophobic surfaces are made on various substances such as polyimide films, filter paper, cotton clothes and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) with hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO), trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS) and toluene reagents. Plasmas are easily and rapidly to change surface of hydrophilic materials into hydrophobic. We have also optimized processing time and maximized contact angle for super-hydrophobicity of MWCNT. Contact angles have been calculated by measuring between substance and probe liquid, and total surface free energies are determined by the Owens-Wendt equation. Figure 1 shows the measured contact angles with time and ratio of reagents on MWCNT.

For the accumulation of a fundamental knowledge about the behavior of glass solder during the joining of ceramics, the wettability of solder on silicon nitride have been measured by sessile drop method. $SiO_2-MgO-Al_2O_3$ g1ass solder and oxynitride glass solders were selected as examples while silicon nitride which were used as substrates. Contact angle of solder on silicon nitride didn't decrease with time at high nitrogen content in the solder, but low nitrogen content in solders have the time-dependent property. Reason which contact angle of low nitrogen content in solders decrease on silicon nitride was that diffusion of nitrogen take place between solder and silicon nitride.

Uplift of contact wire and dynamic characteristics between pantograph and contact wire are key interaction performance of OCS (Overhead Catenary System). These two evaluation items are the approval criteria for the performance between OCS and pantograph. A telemetry system or DAQ (Data Acquisition) System based on wireless communication make it monitor a dynamic behavior which is measured directly in a 25 kv like parts. While permissible working time is too short time to install is too long. In this paper, it is described that optimization the telemetry measurement system for OCS and increasing accuracy, easy adaptation, and faster handling can be also achieved through the study.

The arcing contact wear of circuit breakers can be the major cause for the maintenance requirement. The control of arcing times as short as possible but larger than the given minimum arcing time may be the effective way to mitigate the contact wear and to lessen the expenditure of a maintenance. In this paper the method for minimizing the arcing time is described. The basic concept used in the proposed method is the estimation of the current interruption instant from the informations such as the phase angle at the instant of trip commands and the magnitude of interrupted currents.

In this study a computer program is developed for analyzing the elasto-plastic dynamic behaviors of the plate subjected to line-loading by a low-velocity impactor. The equilibrium equation associated with the Hertzian contact law is formulated to evaluate the transient dynamic behaviour of the impacted plate. Compared with an elastic analysis, the effects of material plasticity are presented. Consequently, in the case of elasto-plastic analysys, impulse decreases, displacements increase and contact time duration is longer than the elastic case for same finite element model. And the time variation of the impacting load is not significant due to the plasticity except at the beginning of impact duration, and the induced stresses of the plate are more realistic.

The influence of the contact amount of carbon dioxide per unit mass of dyestuff(${\alpha}$) on dyeing uniformity in supercritical fluid dyeing is analyzed in this study. The experiments using a 5L class Pilot Scale dyeing machine is carried out for this study purpose. For a fixed temperature and pressure, the amount of sample and the dyeing leveling time were considered as process variables. The results show that the increase in the amount of the sample causes a higher color difference than the reference sample, and it also increases the amount of residual dye. On the other hand, the color difference tended to decrease with the increase in dyeing time. Based on these results, the correlation between ${\alpha}$ value and dyeing uniformity in supercritical fluid dyeing is obtained.
