This paper describes an automatic finite element(FE) mesh generation for three-dimensional structures consisting of free-form surfaces. This mesh generation process consists of three subprocesses: (a) definition of geometric model, i.e. analysis model, (b) generation of nodes, and (c) generation of elements. One of commercial solid modelers is employed for three-dimensional solid and shell structures. Node is generated if its distance from existing node points is similar to the node spacing function at the point. The node spacing function is well controlled by the fuzzy knowledge processing. The Delaunay method is introduced as a basic tool for element generation. Automatic generation of FE meshes for three-dimensional solid and shell structures holds great benefits for analyses. Practical performances of the present system are demonstrated through several mesh generations for three-dimensional complex geometry.

We propose 'the haptic primitive' for haptic rendering without the need to solve complicated parametric equations. To develop 'the haptic primitive', we adopted "the God-Object Method" as a haptic rendering algorithm and applied 'Constructive Solid Geometry' to manage haptic objects. Besides being used in the 'ghost library' of $PHANToMTM^{TM}$ our method can be used as a basic component for developing tools and libraries that aim to simplify haptic modeling. It can also be applied to tactile display modules and temporal display modules. Ultimately it can be developed into a one-stop haptic modeling tool that enables the user to more conveniently create a tangible CAD systems or a tangible e-ommerce system.

The exchange of model design data among heterogeneous CAD systems is very difficult because each CAD system has different data structures suitable for its own functions. STEP represents product information in a common computer-interpretable form that is required to remain complete and consistent when the product information is needed to be exchanged among different computer systems. However, STEP has complex architecture to represent point, line, curve and vectors of element. Moreover it can't represent geometry data of feature based models. In this study, a structure of XML document that represents geometry data of feature based models as neutral format has been developed. To use the developed XML document, a converter also has been developed to exchange modules so that it can exchange feature based data models among heterogeneous CAD systems. Developed XML document and Converter have been applied to commercial CAD systems.

A study on digital processes of injection mold in reverse engineering are presented. Reverse engineering is useful fur several cases, where user has no geometry information of object. Laser scanner is used to obtaining 3D coordinates of object. Sequences to process cloud data are described; sampling to reduce number of points, sorting to adjust the point order, and fitting to curve and surface, and so on. Split slide structure of mold is used fur undercut part and high viscosity material. Flow of injection molding are analysed to correct cooling channel and simulate molding conditions. NC tool paths are generated to carve core and cavity. The processes are performed in digital data for reduction of lead time and consecutive geometry data.

It is important to investigate the relationship between weld process parameters and weld bead geometry for adaptive arc robot welding. However, it is difficult to predict an exact back-bead owing to gap in process of butt welding. In this paper, the quantitative prediction system to specify the relationship external weld conditions and weld bead geometry was developed to get suitable back-bead in butt welding which is widely applied on industrial field. Multiple regression analysis and artificial neural network were used as the research methods. And, the results of two prediction methods were compared and analyzed.

The concept of non-linearity, which has been derived from a scientific paradigm, has generated new discourse in formative arts. The non-linearity enables various new possibilities such as, generation of diverse and dynamic space, creation of non-geometric form and space, and the shape in the space as it is in nature. This study percepts and explains the concepts of non-linearity and their principles in space modeling in the field of interior design, in terms of the philosophy of fractal geometry. We also analyze cases, which shows trends and specific embodiments of non-linear space modeling. This study will provide perspectives on the non-linearity as a new methods in the space modeling. For the study, we review the concept and characteristics of non-linearity, by examining various literatures, and developed an analyzing tool which was used to study various cases of Western and Korean interior Design.

Twin screw extruders are the heart of the polymer processing industry. They are used at some stage in nearly all polymer processing operations. This paper is concerned with the basic elements of the extruder design. The proper design of the geometry of the extruder screw is of crucial importance to the proper functioning of the extruder. If the material transport instabilities occur as a result of improper screw geometry, even the most sophisticated computerized control system cannot solve the problem. For this purpose, a characteristic design on flights shape of the extruder screw. This paper presents cross section designs of a closely intermeshing twin screw extruder with double-flighted screw elements, and channel depth characteristics for a double flighted corotating self-wiping twin screw extruder.

A new design based on the appropriate geometry of molded part and type of runner system under the optimal processing conditions was proposed to minimize the micro weld lines on the sub deco surface molded by two shot molding. Theoretical and experimental studies were conducted to examine the cause of the weld lines during the overmolding process in two shot molding. Various dimensions and geometries of substrate$(1^{st}shot)$ and the wall thickness of overmold$(2^{nd}shot)$ have been proposed to avoid the weld lines which are the most inevitable appearance defects occurred on the sub deco. The each design proposal was analyzed by mold flow analysis after part modeling. The analysis results were compared with molded part from mass production tool. It could be seen that from the analysis that the proper geometry of plastic part and type of runner system considering pressure drop under the optimal processing conditions were the most influential factors to avoid weld lines occured on the sub deco.

The purpose of this study is to investigate /l/-deletion in lC clusters which are composed of a lateral followed by consonants at syllable-final position in English. For this, I have analyzed /l/-deletion in words depending on conditions and theoretical analyses such as Sonority Sequencing Generalization, Cluster Simplification, Complex sounds and merger, and Feature Geometry, but they didn't offer a very satisfactory explanation to the phenomenon. Therefore, I adopted a historical approach in order to determine the cause and origin of /l/-deletion in lC clusters, and then as a phonological analysis tool, I relied on the constraints and their ranking in Optimal Theory framework for explaining /l/-deletion in the clusters more consistently. As a result, I can explain the phenomenon more explicitly than from the above mentioned analyses.

Screw conveyors are used extensively in industrial for conveying and elevating materials. Despite their apparent simplicity, the mechanics of the conveying action is very complex. so many engineers depend on experiential data. Capacities of screw are pumping, steady flow of polymer melts, steady volumetric throughput etc. they are affected by geometry of screw, heat flux, pressure on inside barrel, rotating velocity, friction coefficient at screw surface etc. by computation volumetric efficiency increases as rotating velocity increases and decreases as friction coefficient increases. also it decreases with short pitch length. and double flight screw is more effective than single flight screw. The temperature of polymer melts by heating pad and injection pressure play a very important role in the injection molding machine. so in this paper we analyze thermal distortion and stress of screw includes pressure and temperature distributions by finite element analysis to understand what design factors influence on volumetric throughput efficiency of the screw and thermo-mechanical characteristics of screw.
