To overcome some of the limitations in the conventional photolithography technique, MC-SPL which has advantages such as flexibility and high speed was developed in the past. To make a fine pattern using MC-SPL, there are many variables to control, for example, applied load, scribing speed, chemical etching condition, and etc. In this work, the effect of contact load on the width of the pattern was investigated. The load not only influences the width of the pattern but it also affects the wear of the probe tip. It was found that it is beneficial to load the tip in two stages. Futhermore, the experimental results showed that the pattern width was more sensitive to the initial contact force.

The flow characteristics in the blade passage of a low speed axial flow fan have been investigated by experimental analysis using a rotating hot-wire sensor for design and off-design operating conditions. The results show that the tip leakage vortex is moved upstream when flow rate is decreased, thus disturbing the formation of wake flow near the rotor tip. The tip leakage vortex interfaces with blade pressure surface, and results in high velocity fluctuation near the pressure surface. From the relative velocity distributions near the rotor tip, large axial velocity decay is observed at near stall condition, which results in large blockage compared to that at the design condition. Througout the flow measurements using a quasi-orthogonal measuring points to the tip leakage vortex, it is noted that the radial position of the tip leakage vortex is distributed between 94 and 96 percent span for all flow conditions. High spectrum density due to the large fluctuation of the tip leakage vortex is observed near the blade suction surface below the frequency of 1000 Hz at near stall condition.

Tip-jet gyroplane은 제자리 비행 시 tip-jet의 반발력을 이용하여 로터의 회전력을 얻고, 전진 비행 시 오토자이로 형태로 비행하는 복합형 회전익기의 한 종류이다. Tip-jet gyroplane의 적절한 성능해석과 개념 설계 단계의 사이징을 수행하기 위해서는 tip-jet 모드, gyroplane 모드, transient 모드를 모두 고려할 수 있는 설계 및 해석 기법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이 세 가지 비행 모드 성능해석과 기체 사이징을 수행할 수 있는 코드를 개발하였다. 해석 기법은 tip-jet gyroplane 비행 모드를 이루고 있는 해석 코드 별로 각각 실험값과 비교 검증되었다. 개발된 코드를 이용하여 300km 혹은 400km의 임무 운용반경에서 150knots의 고속 비행을 수행하는 2가지 임무형상에 대해 초기사이징을 수행하였고, 초기 사이징 결과로 설계된 3,000lb 급 tip-jet gyroplane의 형상 및 성능을 분석하였다.

In this paper a practical modelling methodology is presented for a series of aero- servo- elastic- coupled numerical analyses of small wind turbine operation, with particular emphasis on variable speed generator modelling in various wind speed conditions. The following characteristics are determined using the available computer tools: the tip speed ratio as a function of the generator constant (under the assumption of constant wind speed), the turbine coefficient of power as a function of the tip speed ratio (the torque curve is modified accordingly and generator speed and power curves are plotted), turbine power curves and coefficient of power curve as functions of the incoming wind speed. The last stage is to determine forces and torques acting on rotor blades and turbine tower for specific incoming wind speeds in order to examine the impact of the stall phenomena on these values (beyond the rated power of the turbine). It is shown that the obtained results demonstrate a valuable guideline for small wind turbines design process.

The application of contra-rotating rotors for higher specific speed pump has been proposed in our studies, which is in principle effective for reducing the rotational speed and/or the pump size under the same specification of conventional axial flow pump. In the previous experiments of our prototype, the cavitation inception at the tip region of the rear rotor rather than that of the front rotor and the strong potential interaction from the suction surface of the rear rotor blade to the pressure surface of the front one were observed, indicating the possibility to further improve the pump performance by optimizing rotational speed combination between the two rotors. The present research aims at the design of rear rotor with lower rotational speed. Considering the fact that the incoming flow velocity defects at the tip region of the rear rotor, an integrated inflow model of 'forced vortex' and 'free vortex' is employed. The variation of maximum camber location from hub to tip as well as other related considerations are also taken into account for further performance improvement. The ideas cited above are separately or comprehensively applied in the design of three types of rear rotor, which are subsequently simulated in ANSYS CFX to evaluate the related pump performance and therefore the whole low speed design idea. Finally, the experimental validation is carried out on one type to offer further proofs for the availability of the whole design method.

Two kinds of PZT cantilevers integrated with a piezoresistor have been newly designed, fabricated, and characterized for high speed AFM. In first cantilever, a piezoresistor is used to sense atomic force acting on tip, while in second cantilever, a piezoresistor is integrated to calibrate hysteresis and creep phenomena of the PZT cantilever. The fabricated PZT cantilevers provide high tip displacement of $0.55\mu\textrm{m}/V$ and high resonant frequency of 73 KHz. A new cantilever structure has been designed to prevent electrical coupling between sensor and PZT actuator and the proposed cantilever shows 5 times lower coupling voltage than that of the previous cantilever. The fabricated PZT cantilever shows a crisp scanned image at 1mm/sec, while the conventional piezo-tube scanner shows blurred image even at $180\mu\textrm{m}/sec$. The non-linear properties of the PZT actuator are also well calibrated using the piezoresistive sensor for calibration.

Performance of a low speed axial compressor is enhanced through a proper configuration of blade row tip injection and casing treatment of groove type. Air injectors were mounted evenly spaced upstream of the blade row within the casing groove and were all aligned parallel to the compressor axis. The groove, which covers all the blade tip chord length, extends all-round the casing circumference. Method of investigation is based on solution of the unsteady form of the Navier-Stokes equations utilizing $k-{\omega}$ SST turbulence model. Extensive parametric studies have been carried out to explore effects of injectors' flow momentums and yaw angles on compressor performance, while being run at different throttle valve setting. Emphasis has been focused on situations near to stall condition. Unsteady numerical analyses for untreated casing and no-injection case for near stall condition provided to discover two well-known criteria for spike stall inception, i.e., blade leading edge spillage and trailing edge back-flow. Final results showed that with only 6 injectors mounted axially in the casing groove and at yaw angle of 15 degrees opposite the direction of the blade row rotation, with a total mass flow rate of only 0.5% of the compressor main flow, surprisingly, the stall margin improves by 15.5%.

Drilling is a crucial process that takes up a significant amount of weight during machining operations. In addition, drill tip-type tools and related operations have been developed for manufacturing industries to achieve economic efficiency. In this study, SM45C carbon steel, widely used for machine structures, was utilized as the working material after quenching and tempering. Insert-tip types of carbide tools, such as TiN and TiAlN, were used as tool materials. Drilling conditions such as the spindle revolution, feed rate, step of cut, and tool diameter were used to measure roughness, roundness, and straightness using the orthogonal array table statistical method. The surface roughness, roundness, and straightness characteristics based on the conditions were analyzed using ANOVA. The results showed that the spindle speed and feed rate were the main factors influencing carbide insert-tip drilling under the same conditions as the experimental conditions.

In order to research the relationship between the tip clearance and leakage flow of centrifugal compressor, a high speed centrifugal compressor was investigated by using CFD. A numerical study on the effect of four different rotor tip clearance sizes of centrifugal compressor, which were 0.5times, 1 times, 1.5times and 2.0times of the design tip clearance, was carried out. Efficiency and pressure ratio curves were obtained under different mass flow. The reasons of the clearance vortex and the factors of vortex size were analyzed. The result indicated that with the increase of tip clearance size, the performance of the compressor changed obviously, the performance parameters such as efficiency and pressure ratio tended to decrease obviously. While, the leakage flow does not always lead to leak vortex. The strength of the vortex increased with the tip clearance. The size of leak vortex was affected by the pressure difference between the suction side and the pressure side of blade tip.

In a screw-type centrifugal pump, the pump head deteriorates from single-phase flow to the choke due to an increased air entrainment at a wide tip clearance compared to that of a narrow tip clearance. Moreover, at a narrow tip clearance, the pump head became partially higher in a two-phase flow than that of a single-phase flow near the best efficiency point in low void fraction region. Therefore, we observed the internal flow pattern by using a stroboscope and we measured the mean size of bubbles from the images obtained with a high speed camera. Then, we investigated the influences of the mean size of bubbles, tip clearances and flow patterns on pump performance.
