The placement of the UPFC is the major concern to ensure the full potential of utilization in the transmission network. Voltage stability enhancement with the optimal placement of UPFC using stability index such as modal analysis, Voltage Phasor method is made and the loss minimization including UPFC is formulated as an optimization problem. This paper proposes particle swarm optimization for the exact real power loss minimization including UPFC. The implementation of loss minimization for the optimal location of UPFC was tested with IEEE-14 and IEEE-57 bus system.

We propose a modified 6-node element, where the sampling point of Gauss quadrature moved in the thickness direction. The modified 6-node element has been applied to static problems and forced motion analyses. In this study, this method is extended to the finite element analysis of the natural frequencies of two dimensional problems. We also propose a modified 16-node element for three dimensional problems, which behaves much like a 20-node element with smaller degree of freedom. The modified 6-node and 16-node elements have been applied to the modal analyses of beams and plates, respectively. The results agree well with the results of the 8-node or 20-node element models.

A method for determining the geometric stability characteristics of a brake corner module (BCM) is presented. Since disc brake "squeal" noise typically occurs at unstable resonant frequencies of a system, the likelihood of disc brake squeal for a particular design can be determined. Finite element methods are used to derive complex eigenvalue for a brake corner module. Some unstable modes calculated by finite element methods correspond to squeal noise data. Through kinetic energy participation analysis for each part of BCM, we can efficiently predict squeal noise data.

In this study, a static and dynamic characteristics analysis system for machine tool spindle systems with 3 lobe sliding bearing is developed based on Timoshenko theory, finite element method and windows programming techniques. And the characteristics value of 3 lobe sliding bearing such as eccentricity ratio, attitude angle, friction coefficient , stiffness coefficients, damping coefficients and so on, are determined by using the thermal equilibrium conditions of spindle systems. Since the developed system has various analysis modules related to static deformation analysis, modal analysis, frequency responses analysis and so on, it can be utilized to perform systematically the design an devaluation process of spindle systems with 3 lobe sliding bearing under windows GUI environment.

Cutting process, in general, is a closed-loop system consisting of structural dynamics and cutting dynamics, with the cutting forces and the relative displacements between tool and workpiece being the associated variables. There have been a number of works on modeling the cutting process of endmilling, most of which assumed that either one of the tool or workpiece be negligible in tis displacement. In this paper, the relative displacement between tool and workpiece was considered. The proposed model used experimental modal analysis for structural dynamics and an instantaneous uncut chip thickness model for cutting dynamics. Simulation of the model, a time varying cutting system, was performed using 4th order Runge-Kutta method. Subsequent simulation results were utilized to predict chatter over a variety of experiments in slotting operation, showing good agreement.

The Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) has been applied to many technical problems such as deformation and displacement measurement, strain visualization and surface roughness monitoring. Composite materials have various complicated characteristics depending on the ply materials,ply orientations,ply stacking sequences and boundary conditions. Therefore, it is difficult to analyze composite material. For efficient use of composit materials in engineering applications, the dynamic behavior such as, natural frequencies and modal patterns should be identified. This studying presents FEM results for the free vibration of symmetrically laminated composite as [30/-30/90] $_{s}$. The natural frequencies of laminated composite rectangular plates having the boundary condition(:2-edge clamped) are experimentally obtained. In order to demonstrate the validity of the experiment,FEM analysis using ANSYS was performed and natural frequencies experimentally obtained is compared with calculated by FEM analysis. The results obtained from both experiment and FEM analysis show a good agreement.t.

Hybrid type slim tilt actuator and 6-wire supported are developed for DVD recording in the optical disc drive of notebook PC, which can compensate the inclination of disc and objective lens. The hybrid actuator uses the actuating method of moving coil in the focus and track direction and that of moving magnet in the tilt direction. Comparing with 6-wire supported actuator and hybrid type actuator, we can choose an actuator for slim super combo pickup. Two actuator are designed through the modal analysis and magnetic field analysis and experimental results shows dynamic characteristics. Finally, it is verified that the actuator can compensate the disc tilt of ${\pm}0.4^{\circ}$.

Vibration table is required to obtain high packing density in expendable pattern casting process. Packing density, which is an important manufacture factor, depends on the vibration pattern induced by vibration table. In general, circular vibration pattern is recognized as the best pattern. The existing vibration table is investigated to identify current vibration pattern and consider a countermeasure. Modal test is utilized to identify the dynamic characteristics of vibration table, and finite element method is used to present the improved design.

Dynamic characteristics of smart laminated composite plates with passive constrained layer damping have been investigated to design structure with maximum possible damping capacity. The equations of motion are derived for flexural vibrations of symmetrical, multi-layer laminated plates. The damping ratio and modal damping of the first bending and torsional modes are calculated by means of iterative complex eigensolution method. The structural damping index(SDI) is introduced to determine the optimum placement of viscoelastic patch. This paper addresses a design strategy of laminated composite plate under vibrations.

If the control force designed on the basis of the mathematical model with parameter errors is applied to control the actual system, the closed-loop performance of the actual system will be degraded depending on the degree of the errors, In this study, the effect of parameter errors on the robustness of several natural controls has been analyzed and compared. Every asymptoic stability condition for the natural controls has been derived using Lyapunov approach, and the characteristics of the stability conditions has also been compared. The extent of deviation of the closed-loop performance from the designed one for the natural controls is derived using operator techniques, and evaluated by numerical method. It has been found that the optimal control, acceleration feedback control, and acceleration-position feedback control among the considered natural controls would be robust one with respect to the parameter errors.
