Semi-Solid Diecasters usually carry out the Semi-Solid diecasting experiments before producing new casts. At the Semi-Solid diecasting stages, the runner-gate part has been always repeatedly corrected, which leads to a tedious processing time and increased processing cost. A large amount of experience is essential in manual assessment and if the design is defective, much time and a great deal of efforts will be wasted in the modification of the die. In this study, design system has been developed based on design database. In addition, gate experiment for gating system design has been carried out to append the database. It is possible for engineers to make efficient gating system design of Semi-Solid diecasting and it will result in the reduction of expenses and time to be required. The detailed contents of the research are described in the followings. An attempt is made to link programs incorporating a number of expert design rules with the process variables obtained by commercial FVM softwares, MAGMAsoft, to form a useful package.

For the purpose of building the more efficient knowledge learning system, it is very important to make a good structure of the knowledge system first of all. The well designed knowledge system can make the stored knowledge to be easily accessed for knowledge acquisition and extraction. Expert knowledge can also play a good role for controlling. Accordingly, in this paper we propose the Hierarchical modular system with expert knowledge gating mechanism. This system consists of the mechanisms for knowledge acquisition, constructing the associative memory, knowledge inference and extraction according to the expert knowledge gating mechanism. We applied this system to the medical diagnostic area for classifying Virus(coxackie virus, echovirus, cold), Rhinitis(Nonallergic, allergic) and tested with symptom data

Lung cancer 환자 중 호흡에 의한 종양의 움직임이 큰 lung lower lobe에서 stetreotactic radiosurgery(SRS)시 호흡 주기 중 종양의 움직임이 적은 호흡 주기에서만 방사선을 조사하기 위해 respiratory gating system을 사용함으로써 그 유용성에 대하여 알아보고자 한다. lung lower lobe의 SRS 환자 2명을 대강으로 하였으며, 환자의 복부에 maker block(sensor)을 부착하고 tracking camera와 real time position management(RPM)를 이용하여 호흡 주기를 측정하면서 1회 호흡주기에서 10 phases의 4D-CT를 촬영 하였다. 종양의 위치 변화가 급격하지 않은 percent($\%$)의 phases를 치료 phases로 결정하였고, 치료 phases의 CT image를 maximum intensity projection(MIP) 기법으로 재구성 후 volume contouring을 하였다. set up 의 재현성 및 GTV의 위치 변화를 확인하기 위해 치료 전과 치료 중 2회의 4D-CT 촬영을 하였다. GTV의 움직임이 가장 큰 Y(longitudinal)축에서 A환자 full($0\%\~90\%$) phases의 9.4mm가 치료 ($30\%\~60\%$) phases 에서는 2.6mm로, B환자 full($0\%\~90\%$) phases의 11.7mm가 치료($30\%\~70\%$) phases 에서는 2.3mm로 줄었다. 2회의 4D-CT 비교 결과 Set up의 X, Y, Z축 오차는 모두 3mm 이내였다. 호흡에 의한 종양의 움직임이 큰 lung lower lobe에서 SRS 시행 시 respiratory gating system의 사용은 종양의 움직임을 5mm 이내로 감소시킬 수 있어 유용하였다.

In this study, a design of experiment, Taguchi method, was applied to optimize gating system design of escalator step die casting parts. Six shape factors which affect filling sequence of melt are adopted and divided into two levels respectively. Initial feeding differences of melt which were calculated by using S/N(signal-to-noise) ratio in each condition were demonstrated with the simulation of Flow-3D software program. Variations of S/N ratio according to shape factors were obtained and the optimal condition of gating system could also be obtained. It could be found that width of gate, contact angle of gate, thickness of runner are more effective factors on the filling sequence of melt than the others in this case of escalator step die casting parts. It showed that the economical gating system and sound filling sequence of melt were obtained by using Taguchi method.

The control head components used in small military vessels are designed to be domestically produced, prototypes, structural analysis, and casting methods are designed and cast. The control head assembly consists of a lever, an aluminum outside cover, Middle, front gear cover, back gear cover, and a zinc worm gear. In order to reverse the design of each component, 3D scanning device was used, 3D modeling was performed by CATIA, and prototype productions were carried out by 3D printer. In order to reduce the cost of components, gating system is used by gravity casting method. The SRG ratio of 1:0.9:0.6 was set by applying non-pressurized gating system to aluminum parts, 1:2.2:2.0 and pressurized gating system to zinc parts, and the shapes of sprue, runner and gate were designed. The results of porosity were also confirmed by casting analysis in order to determine whether the appropriate gating system can be designed. The results showed that all parts started solidification after filling completely. ANSYS was used for structural analysis, and the results confirmed that all five components had a safety factor of 15 more. All castings are free of defects in appearance, and CT results show only very small porosity. ZnDC1 zinc alloy worm gear has a tensile strength of 285 MPa and an elongation of 8%. The tensile strength of the four components of A356 aluminum alloy is about 137-162 MPa and the elongation is 4.8-6.5%.

In this study, the optimum gating system was designed, and the two zinc alloy worm gears were manufactured in single process by applying a symmetrical gating system with 2 runners. The SRG ratio is set to 1 : 0.9 : 0.6, and the cross-sectional shapes such as sprue, runner and gate are designed. In order to determine whether the design of the gating system is appropriate, casting analysis was carried out. It takes 4.380 s to charge the casting 100%, 0.55 to 0.6 m/s at the gates and solidification begins after the casting is fully charged. The amount of air entrapment is 2% in the left gear and 6% in the right gear. Hot spots occurred in the center hole of the gear, and pores were found to occur around the upper part of the hole. Therefore, the design of the casting method is suitable for worm gears. CT analysis showed that all parts of worm gear were distributed with fine pores and some coarse pores were distributed around the central hole of worm gear. The yield strength and tensile strength were 220 MPa, 285 MPa, and the elongation rate was 8%. Vickers hardness is 82 HV.

The filter bank multicarrier modulation (FBMC) technique is one of multicarrier modulation technique (MCM), which is mainly used to improve channel capacity of cognitive radio (CR) network and frequency spectrum access technique. The existing FBMC System contains serial to parallel converter, normal QAM modulation, Radix2 inverse FFT, parallel to serial converter and poly phase filter. It needs high area, delay and power consumption. To further reduce the area, delay and power of FBMC structure, a new clock gating technique is applied in the QAM modulation, radix2 multipath delay commutator (R2MDC) based inverse FFT and unified addition and subtraction (UAS) based FIR filter with parallel asynchronous self time adder (PASTA). The clock gating technique is mainly used to reduce the unwanted clock switching activity. The clock gating is nothing but clock signal of flip-flops is controlled by gate (i.e.) AND gate. Hence speed is high and power consumption is low. The comparison between existing QAM and proposed QAM with clock gating technique is carried out to analyze the results. Conversely, the proposed inverse R2MDC FFT with clock gating technique is compared with the existing radix2 inverse FFT. Also the comparison between existing poly phase filter and proposed UAS based FIR filter with PASTA adder is carried out to analyze the performance, area and power consumption individually. The proposed FBMC with clock gating technique offers low power and high speed than the existing FBMC structures.

In this paper, the casting design of the integrated twin-scroll turbine housing with exhaust manifold using stainless steel is investigated. Due to the complexity in its geometry and the poor castability of stainless steel, it is more crucial to set up the appropriate casting design to avoid casting defects. Gas porosity and shrinkage formation with the changes of gating systems (one-/two-side), riser conditions and pouring temperatures are examined via casting simulation and virtual castings. Simulation results show that two-side gating system produced better quality casting than that of one-side gating system, minimizing the gas content of the castings and it is also verified by X-ray analysis for the virtual castings. For the changes of riser conditions and pouring temperatures in the two-side gating system, it is found that the change of the height of two risers plays an important role in obtaining the best quality by reducing shrinkage defects.

Vestibular hair cells, the sensory receptors of vestibular organs, selectively amplify miniscule stimuli to attain high sensitivity. Such selective amplification results in compressive nonlinear sensitivity, which plays an important role in expanding dynamic range while ensuring robustness of the system. In this study, negative stiffness mechanism, a mechanism responsible for the selective amplification by vestibular hair cells, is applied to a simple mechanical system consisting of an array of inverted pendulums. The structure and working principle of the system have been inspired by gating spring hypothesis proposing that opening and closing of transduction channels contributes to the global stiffness of vestibular hair bundle. Parameter study was carried out to analyze the effect of each parameter on the compressive nonlinearity of suggested model.
