This paper presents a design and analysis solutions for the general class and control parameter estimation of slotted iron-cored Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor with Halbach magnetization stator and 3-phase winding mover. In our design and analysis, stator consisting of permanent magnets and slotted iron-cored coil mover are treated in a uniform way via magnetic vector potential. For one such motor structure, we give analytical formulas for its magnetic field, back electromotive force and trust force. Moreover, the detent force are calculated by the relative permeance function. In good agreement with the estimated values from the analyses, the experimental results and Finite Element Method (FEM) confirm the validity of the design and analysis framework.

This paper presents methods to reduce acoustic noise in interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor. Mechanical and magnetic sources are considered to reduce noise of the machine, and structural and electromagnetic designs are performed. In the structural design to reduce mechanical source, the structural resonances are moved to higher frequency for enhancement of stiffness. Then, the electromagnetic design to reduce magnetic source, the amplitudes of magnetic force harmonics are reduced by using objective function of response surface methodology (RSM). The validity of the design process and objective functions is confirmed with their calculated and experimental results.

This paper proposes the design method of a magnetic suspension that can control external vibration caused by low frequencies on the external vibrations by low frequencies. The magnetic suspension with individual controls is able to compensate the vibrations unlike a mechanical suspension. In the magnetic suspension, two characteristics are required. Firstly, magnetic motive force(MMF) by armature winding must be increased linearly. Secondly, identical magnitude of output force should be produced as direction of MMF. In this paper, axis-symmetric finite element analysis is used for magnetic field analysis. In order to optimize magnetic suspension, response surface methodology combined with experimental design is applied to investigate the characteristics and optimize the magnetic suspension for vibration -free table.

This study is proposed a new hybrid mount having a moving-magnet type electromagnetic actuator to reduce the vibration transmitted from naval shipboard equipment to the structure of the ship's hull. Optimal design specifications are determined through experimental analysis. The detailed design of the hybrid mount is determined through several design steps with electromagnetic numerical analysis using Maxwell Software(S/W). The hybrid mount that combines a rubber mount and an electromagnetic actuator has a fail-safe function for shock resistance. The mount is fabricated and tested using a universal testing machine to evaluate the design specifications. Finally, numerical simulation of the hybrid mount is performed to confirm control performance and applicability.

This Paper presents a robust design of an Electrorheological(ER) damper using Taguchi method. Taguchi method is a robust design method that determines control parameters in the presence of noise effect. Electrode length, electrode gap, base oil viscosity and the weight ratio of ER particles are chosen for the control parameters and the temperature is considered to be a noise factor. The sensitivity of each factor with signal-to-noise(S/N) ratio and analysis of variance are investigated. The analysis results show that the electrode length and base oil viscosity of the ER fluid mostly affect the damping force in the absence of electric field. On the other hand, when the voltage is applied to the ER damper, the electrode length and the weight ratio of ER fluid exhibit significant effect. Based on the Taguchi method, an optimal configuration was designed and the robustness of the designed ER damper was validated by comparing the analysis and experimental results.

Even though the ad hoc Shewhart methods remain controversial due to various mathematical flaws, there is little disagreement among researchers and practitioners when a set of process data has a skewness distribution. In the context and language of process control, the error related to the process data shows that time to signal increases when a control parameter shifts to a skewness direction. In real-world industrial settings, however, quality practitioners often need to consider a skewness distribution. To address this situation, we developed an enhanced design method to utilize advantages of the traditional attribute control chart and to overcome its associated shortcomings. The proposed design method minimizes bias, i.e., an average time to signal for the shift of process from the target value (ATS) curve, as well as it applies a variable sampling interval (VSI) method to an attribute control chart for detecting a process shift efficiently. The results of the factorial experiment obtained by various parameter circumstances show that the VSI c control chart using nearly unbiased ATS design provides the smallest decreasing rate in ATS among other charts for all experimental cases.

The theoretical basis and the main results of a design procedure, which attempts to provide the optimal layout of ordinary reinforcement in prestressed concrete beams, subjected to bending moment and shear force are presented. The difficulties encountered in simulating the actual behaviour of prestressed concrete beam in presence of coupled forces bending moment - shear force are discussed; particular emphasis is put on plastic models and stress fields approaches. A unified model for reinforced and prestressed concrete beams under axial force - bending moment - shear force interaction is provided. This analytical model is validated against both experimental results collected in literature and nonlinear numerical analyses. Finally, for illustrating the applicability of the proposed procedure, an example of design for a full-scale prestressed concrete beam is shown.

A Simple AC complex circuit analysis for LCL type series resonant converter with phase shift control is proposed. Based on these analyses, a set of characteristic curves which allows a optimal design procedure for this converter is shown, without increasing the volt-ampere rating of tank circuit Especially, inverter output peak current can be minimized in both full load and partial load conditions. The presented design considerations can make the load range wide from full loads to light loads achieving turn-on with zero voltage switching (ZVS) operation. The detailed analysis and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed design algorithms. (author). refs., figs., tab.

The purposes of this study were mix design and quality control of high strength concrete for the construction of high rise complex structure. Desired performances of this high strength concrete were slump flow 50$\pm$10cm, air content 4.5$\pm$1.5% and design strength 400kgf/$cm^2$. Experimental flow was that optimal mix design was selected in the indoor experiment and after that, producing test was done in the batcher plant. Excel lent results of experiment was obtained from binder content 475kg/$m^2$ with replacement ratio 10% of fly ash. The results of field application of high strength concrete was sufficiently satisfied both flowability and compressive strength.

This paper presents the development of a 3D printer based piezo-driven vertical micro-positioning stage. The stage consists of two flexure bridge structures which amplify and transfer the horizontal motion of the piezo-element into vertical motion of the end-effector. The stage is fabricated with ABS material using a precision 3D printer. This enables a one-body design eliminating the need for assembly, and significantly increases the freedom in design while shortening fabrication time. The design of the stage was optimized using response surface analysis method. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate 100nm stepping in the vertical out-of-plane direction. The results demonstrate the future possibilities of applying 3D printers and ABS material in fabricating linear driven motion stages.
