The construction industry is typical of the ' job of 3D ', the automated construction equipments are getting used in the domestic construction sites and the construction robots began to be sold in the abroad. The research developed the small sized robot which could be used at the apartments and the office buildings with the small floors. But the past finishing robot could not be operated easily, it had expensive controller which could not increase the production of robot. In this paper, user interface is made to operate easily the small concrete floor finishing robot with two trowel which has low cost controller, motion algorithm including modeling and mechanism about the concrete finishing robot is developed to control moving. Simulation and experiment figure out how the finishing robot moves and will contribute to realizing it.lizing it.

With conventional positioning apparatus, it is very difficult to simultaneously achieve the desired driving range and precision at the sub-micrometer level. Generally, lead screw and friction drive, etc., have been used as servo control systems. These have large driving ranges, and high-speed positioning is feasible. In this study, we present a global servo system controlled by a laser interferometer acting as a displacement measurement sensor for achieving positioning accuracy at the sub-micrometer level.

본 논문에서는 환경에 구속 받는 유연 매니퓨레이터의 힘/위치에 대하여 논하고자 한다. 일반적으로, 유연 매니퓨레이터의 모델링 방법은 분포 정수 모델과 집중 정수 모델로 분류할 수 있다. 전자인 분포 정수 모델을 이용해서는 평면 1 링크, 2 링크를 대상으로 한 위치/힘 제어는 가능하나, 운동 방정식의 복잡성으로 인하여 실시간에서 다 링크 다 관절 유연 매니퓨레이터의 힘/위치를 제어하기는 어렵게 여겨져 왔다. 본 논문에서는 집중 정수 모델링 방법인 집중 스프링 질량 모델(Lumped Spring Mass Model)을 이용하여 환경에 구속받는 유연 매니퓨레이터의 운동 방정식을 산출했다 이 모델을 실험기인 유연 매니퓨레이터 ADAM(Aerospace Dual Arm Manipulators)에 적용하여 실시간 위치/힘 제어 실험을 행하였으며, MATLAB를 이용하여 해석했다. 또한, ADAMS$^{TM}$ FEM를 이용하여 분포 정수 모델을 도출하여, 해석하였으며, 이 결과와 집중 정수 모델을 이용한 MATLAB 해석의 결과, 그리고 실험 결과를 비교 분석하여 본 논문에서 제안한 구속받는 유연 매니퓨레이터의 집중 정수 모델 타당성을 입증시켰다.

Nanopositioning technologies play an important role in the progress of electronics, optics, bio-engineering and various nano-scale technologies. As a result, various practical nanopositioning methods have been successfully introduced. Flexure mechanism is a valuable method in nanopositioning because of smooth and friction-free motion and the infinitesimal movement near to sub-nm. In this study a modularized nanopositioner based on parallelogram four-bar linkage structure with right-circular flexure hinge was developed. The positioning performance of a single axis nanopositioner and a XY nanopositioner which was extended from single axis one were demonstrated using control experiments. Consequently, it was shown that the developed single axis nanopositioner possessed high performance and could be extended to various multi-axis nanopositioners.

Synchronizing errors between the spindle motor and the z-axis motor directly influences the cutting characteristics and the thread quality in tapping, because the tapping process is accomplished by synchronizing the movement of the z-axis with the revolutionary spindle motion. Generally synchronizing errors are decided by tile parameters of the servo system and commanded velocity. The excessive synchronizing errors which are induced by the parameter mismatch and high cutting velocity can cause tap breakage due to the abrupt increase of cutting torque or damage the thread accuracy by overcutting the already cut threads. In this paper, the influences of the synchronizing errors on the tapping characteristics in the ultra high-speed tapping will be described and a minimum level of synchronizing errors necessary to maintain the quality of the cut thread will be presented.

This paper examines methods to estimate torque and angle in shoulder flexion from surface electromyography(sEMG) signals for intuitive and delicate control of robotic assistance device. Five muscles on the upper arm, three for shoulder flexion and two for shoulder extension, were used to offer favorable sEMG recording conditions in the estimation. The methods tested were the mean absolute value (MAV) with linear regression and the artificial neural network (ANN) method. An optimal condition was sought by varying combination of muscles used and the parameters in each method. The estimation performance was evaluated using the correlation values and normalized root mean square error values. In addition, we discussed their possible use as an estimation of motion intent of a user or as a command input in a physical human-machine interaction system.

The closed-loop system modeling of an Active/semiactive suspension system has been accomplished through an artificial neural Networks. The 7DOF full model as the system equation of motion has been derived and the output feedback linear quadratic regulator has been designed for the control purpose. For the neural networks training set of a sample data has been obtained through the computer simulation. A 7DOF full model with LQR controller simulated under the several road conditions such as sinusoidal bumps and the rectangular bumps. A general multilayer perceptron neural network is used for the dynamic modeling and the target outputs are feedback to the input layer. The Backpropagation method is used as the training algorithm. The modeling of system and the model validation have been shown through computer simulations.

Electrostatically actuated nanoscale tweezers are fabricated on micro processed electrodes using FIB-CVD. Heavily doped electrode works as interconnection platform for controlling nanoscale devices. Short bent pillars are deposited to control the gap distance of main tweezers fabricated on bent ones. Two types of tweezers which have different gap distances are fabricated and tweezing motion was successfully demonstrated. The threshold voltages at snap-down of the pillars are dependent on the initial gap distance of the unactuated pillars, and the measured values were 93V for 3.6um and 30V for 2.2um. The dimension of nano tweezers and initial gap distances are controllable as demonstrated and we expect more complicated 3-dimensional shapes are also possible.

As track density increases, the effects of nonlinearity in pivot bearing of hard disk drive on the servo performance are becoming more important in considering the range of inertia force and the input torque during settling and tracking mode. Recently, an increasing attention is given to more precise experimental observations and modelings of pivot nonlinearity for achieving higher performance of servo control. In this paper, we propose a new model that shows an improved prediction of the pivot nonlinearity than existing preload-plus-two-slope model at matching simulations and experimental results in both time and frequency domains. Experimental measurements are carried out to validate and identify the specific nonlinearity presents in the pivot bearing when its in fine motion. Using the experimental results new model along with the existing one are characterized and compared for relevancies.

In electrostatic suspension system of thin plates like a silicon wafer or an aluminum disk for hard disk applications, the lateral restoring force exerted on a suspended object plays an important role since the lateral motion of the suspended object, owing to the inherently stable restoring forces, can be passively stabilized without any active control of it. This paper reports about the measurement apparatus of the lateral restoring force originating from a relative translation of the suspended object with respect to the electrodes-for-suspension. An approximate calculation of the lateral force in disk-shaped objects, the structure of the measurement apparatus, a measurement method, stabilization condition and the guideline in designing the measurement apparatus are described. Experimental results obtained by using a 3.5-inch aluminum disk as a suspended object are presented as well in order to assess the magnitude of lateral force and stiffness, and also verify the usefulness of the measurement apparatus.
