In order to identify the design parameters of a hydraulic engine mount with a nonlinear characteristics, an experimental method has been used generally. The method takes a considerable time and expense because of preparing an experimental apparatus, conducting a test, and analyzing results. Therefore, this paper presents a simple method to identify the design parameters of a cylindrical hydraulic engine mount, and optimize the design parameters. The physical model and mathematical equations of the mount were derived, and values of the design parameters of the mount were identified by optimization method with minimizing difference between the analytical results with the equations and the experimental results. This method is more simpler than the conventional experiment method and identify successfully the design parameters. In addition, the technique can optimize the design parameters of the mount to improves the isolation performance of the mount.

This paper probes into the influence of tire uniformity on tire's modal parameters with the method of experimental modal analysis. Two radial tires of the same kind with different uniformity level are taken to be tested at different exciting points and real modal parameters are abstracted. The differences of their modal parameters are presented. Then tire transfer functions are constructed with experimental modal parameters and ideal modal parameters respectively. It is found that the measured transfer functions of tire of good uniformity are closer to ideal transfer function than that of tire of bad uniformity. The study shows evident interrelation of experimental modal parameters and tire uniformity, and further study should be of great value.

The optimization of experimental parameters, such as catalyst type, catalyst concentration, molar ratio of alcohol to oil and reaction temperature, on the transesterification for the production of rapeseed methyl ester has been studied. The Taguchi approach (Taguchi method) was adopted as the experimental design methodology, which was adequate for understanding the effects of the control parameters and to optimize the experimental conditions from a limited number of experiments. The optimal experimental conditions obtained from this study were potassium hydroxide as the catalyst, at a concentration of 1.5 wt %, and a reaction temperature of $60^{\circ}C$. According to Taguchi method, the catalyst concentration played the most important role in the yield of rapeseed methyl ester. Finally, the yield of rapeseed methyl ester was improved to 96.7% with the by optimal conditions of the control parameters which were obtained by Taguchi method.

Micro-EDM is generally used far machining micro 3-D structure. For micro-EDM, first of all, micro-electrode fabrication is needed and WEDG system is proposed for tool electrode fabrication method. When tool electrode is fabricated using WEDG system, its characteristics are under the control of many EDM parameters. Also relations between the parameters affect electrode fabrication. In this study, experiments are carried out to analyze effects of EDM parameters on micro-electrode fabrication. Experimental method and analysis are used to experimental design method. Factors used in experiments are composed of applied voltage, capacitance, wire feed rate, spindle rotating speed, machining time. As a result of experiments, wire feed rate, machining time and capacitance is proportional to gap distance(material removal), the other parameters(applied voltage, spindle rotating speed) and relations between the parameters have little influence on machining.

A calculation method of optimum parameters on dual adsorption isotherm system was examined. The optimum parameters were obtained by non-linear regression analysis based upon a limited solute concentration of dual adsorption isotherm. The results were analyzed with adducing experimental data of formerly reported treaties. The percentage mean deviation of dual adsorption equation calculated with optimum parameters was less than about 5% of experimental data, which was far less than results obtained with parameters of the adduced treatises.

The analytical model of an engine mount system with six degrees of freedom is identified using the modal parameters obtained from the experimental modal analysis. The structural parameters, mass moment of inertia of the engine block and stiffness of the rubber mounts, of the engine mount system are determined by using the condition that the estimated model parameters should satisfy the corresponding eigenvalue problem. The simulated modal parameters of the identified analytical model are in good agreement with the measured modal parameters.

Dynamic properties such as stiffness and damping of mechanical joints are essential for the accurate prediction of the dynamic behaviors of the system and subsequent improvement of the design. So far several techniques, analytical, experimental, or both have been developed. A technique using condensed F.E.M. model and Experimental Modal Analysis is presented to identify the joint structural parameters. First, modal parameters of structure are measured by certain complex frequency obtained from experiment to match with the order of the Experimental Modal Analysis model. Finally by equating the modal parameters obtained from experiment with those of the condensed system, the unknown joint structural parameters can be identified. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the accuracy of technique. The experiments are performed with ball bearings in a rotor bearing system.

In the wire cut electrical discharge machining, the optimal machining parameters setting satisfying the requirements of both high efficiency and good quality is very difficult because its process involves a series of complex physical phenomena and the machining parameters are numerous over diverse range. In this paper, the experimental investigation has been performed to find out the influence of the machining parameters on the machining performance such as cutting speed and surface roughness. The selected experimental parameters are no load voltage, discharge peak current and pulse-off time. The experimental results give the guideline for selecting suitable machining parameters.

When the track designer analyze the track structure uses many known & unknown parameters. Unknown parameters, equivalent rail support spring factor, unit rail support spring factor, track damping coefficient, should be assumed. Known parameters are section properties (area, section factor, etc), material properties(modulus of elasticity, mass, etc) and track conditions(wheel load, loading conditions, gauge, etc.). In the assumption of track design parameters, some parameters can be overestimated or under estimated. The purpose of this study is to verify design parameters used in track design, in the way of experimental measurements. Data of displacements, banding stresses, loads, accelerations are measurable at track site. From these data, unknown parameters are derived. Compare these assumed and derived parameters, estimate the entire track stability.
