The environmental destruction by the exhaust gas from diesel engine is the most major cause for air pollution. Therefore, many solution methods have been studied. That major solution is DPF (Diesel Particulate filter). However developed devices cannot capture smaller particle than 1μm in exhaust gas. Then, electric field was applied in this research. Particles were captured by input of Direct current to electrode plates. Its characteristic showed that the increasing of voltage made much captured particles. By distance spreading between electrode plates with constant electric field, the effect of electrode on capture decreased slightly. When input voltage changed to Alternating current, particles cannot be captured over 100Hz

This paper describes the effect of traction oil on the power loss of spur gear. In this study, four traction oils and a turbine oil were used. The power loss was separated into gear friction loss and oil churning loss. Effects of gear torque, gear speed, and oil temperature on the friction loss were investigated. Besides, the flash temperature on the contact surface was measured using a dynamic thermocouple, and the lubrication condition was observed using electrical resistance. The relationship of the gear friction loss to the lubrication condition on spur gear is discussed.

The tribological behavior of micro mechanical systems plays a key role in the performance of such systems. Consequently, it is necessary to quantitatively understand the friction and wear properties in ultra minute region because the influence of the surface topography and the atmospheric gas can't be disregarded for making the component minute. Especially, external disturbance, i.e. vibration may promote fretting, which have been hardly studied in nano/micro-scale. In this paper, we investigated the influence of the normal load, the sliding velocity and the displacement of sliding on lateral force. The lateral forces were measured by using AFM with various conditions under the controlled relative humidity. The test materials of single-crystalline <111> silicon plates were rubbed against a spherical tip made of glass at load ranging from 20nN to 80nN. When sliding velocity is low, lateral forces become large. Lateral force linearly increased with normal load. In the case of spherical tip, tangential micro-displacement is compared with Mindlins model in fretting, it is in agreement with the Mindlins theoretical formula which load is changed into normal load plus pull-off force.

The traction coefficient generally decreases according as the temperature rise. In this study an effect of heat in the contact area to the characteristic of tracion oil at low temperature is examined and the precise measurement of traction coefficient at low temperature is developed modifying the method of temperature measurement. The film temperature is estimated by the formula and the bulk temperature is measured by the thermocouple which is put beneath the roller. The traction coefficient is measured at low temperature in case of the traction oil and the traction grease. The maximum traction coefficent changes according as the temperature and shows the peak at 300K. It decrease in the range less than 300K. The difference between the traction coefficient of the traction oil and that of the traction grease is not observed.

A model is proposed to estimate the contact force applied to a single particle in a CMP slurry the Greenwood - Williamson contact model. Using this model and the atomic force microscope, the simulation on polishing of the SiO2 by the single particle in CMP slurry is carried out. To verify the validity of the simulation, we perform the estimation of the material removal rate of a SiO2 slurry. As a result, the simulation with this model and AFM test can estimate the material removal rate of real CMP processes.

Tribology is a key technology of modern triboelements used in advanced industrial fields such as micro machines, large scale integrated circuits manufacturing systems, magnetic recording head-media interfaces and mechanisms for use in space. In these fields, atomic-scale wear and minute fluctuations in friction, so-called the microtribological properties, have influence on equipment performances. Therefore a hard and lubricating film, not the conventional solid lubricant film, is requested to reduce atomic-scale wear and friction force fluctuation. Nanometer period multilayer film was expected to show good solid lubricating property. Tungsten disulfide and molybdenum disulfide multilayer films were deposited, and then tested. Tungsten disulfide and molybdenum disulfide multilayer films were deposited by RF sputtering using two kinds of targets. The multilayer (WS/MoS)n films were deposited by controlling the depositing time for each of the targets. Nanoindentation hardness. The frictional properties of the (WS/MoS)n films were better than those of other films in the ball-on-disk tribotest.

Friction and wear characteristics of natural iron sand coating were experimentally examined in the absence of lubricant. The coefficient of friction was around 0.6 regardless of the sliding distance. The amount of coating worn away was very small at a nominal pressure of less than 3MPa. Two types of friction model were conjectured to interpret the friction and wear characteristics of iron sand coating. In both models, the fine iron sand particles, which were formed by tearing of rubbing surfaces, may play an important role. One model is explained by a ball bearing effect of fine particles. The other is a lubricant formation model ; the frictional heat turns the fine particles into a lubricating film of Fe2O3.

This report deals with contact problem of rectangular poroelastic body put between two parallel impermeable rigid planes, subjected to vibrational compression. The problem was analyzed based on two dimensional theory of poroelasticity and load sharing ratio by solid contact and by fluid were obtained from stress components at contact surface. At high excitation frequency, load sharing ratio by fluid becomes large especially at the material center and its phase shift approaches zero, which lead to reduction of load sharing ratio by solid contact and increase of its phase delay. In addition, effects of several parameters to load sharing ratios were examined.

An oiliness agent, for example stearic acid, makes reduction of friction coefficient by forming chemisorption layers. Predominant factors over this reduction effect are experimentally investigated in reciprocating friction with small amplitude. In this experimental condition, severe starvation of lubricant in a contact area proceeds with increasing into the friction pass. According as this starvation, defect of the chemisorption layers increases and thus the friction coefficient abruptly increases. Endurance time of chemisorption layer up to abrupt friction increase positively depends on both friction velocity and resting time of upper specimen. These results show that time to re-flow into the contact area and re-from the layer may predominantly influence the endurance of the layer.

This paper describes wear mechanism of cemented carbide sliding against S45C steel. Following result was obtained by the sliding test. Wear volume was low to about 50m of sliding distance. 50m of sliding distance has low transferred volume and be hard to exfoliate. And, wear volume is proportional to transferred volume. From continuous SEM observation of WC particles on the wear scar, small particles are removed in the early stage of 50m and big particle is isolated. It is thought that wear volume increase with separation of big particles with transferred material.

Fretting wear is one of the problems that influence operating lifetime of machines. In this paper, we report on the fretting wear behavior of aluminium alloy (A5056) and SUS 304 stainless steel in air and vacuum. Fretting experiments were performed using three combinations of specimens : (1) A5056 vs. A5056,(2) SUS 304 vs. SUS 304,(3) SUS 304 vs. A5056. For the combinations (1) and (2), coefficient of friction is higher in vacuum than in air. But, for the combination (3), coefficient of friction is slightly lower in vacuum than in air. And, wear volume measured shows that the combination (3) has better resistance to fretting wear.

In order to grasp main factor of oil-solidified high-pressure spin traction curves, rough and simple calculations based on creep theory were reported compared with reference experimental data up to 2 GPa mean Hertzian pressure. The calculations were also based on the pure rolling experimental data, whose experiments had been already reported to almost agree with the calculation by creep theory. The important property in solidified oil for traction analysis was only the limiting shear stress (Shear strength). Experimental spin traction curves of references were almost expressed by the calculated curves for all spin angles. In the creep theory, apparent slide is induced from surface displacement in contact area by elastic shearing of rotating rollers and is independent of oil film thickness (velocity).

The air film thickness between a foil and a drum is studied experimentally using a measuring system under conditions where the Air film thickness is effected by the bending stiffness of the foil. For comparatively flexible foil cases, the experimental results coincide fairly well with theoretical ones obtained by applying the separation boundary condition. For cases with stiffer foil conditions, the tendency of the experimental results may also be explained well by the theoretical analysis, by introducing the concept of the tangency pint condition as well as the infinity point condition for the film pressure generration point The theortical tool of Finite Element Method is used to analyze film thickness and pressure distribution in a foil bearing for various values of foil stiffness, The calculated results agree with the experimental data, and it is concluded that the shallow shells model is useful and accurrate.

The pressure depression, which decreases the bearing load carrying capacity, is an undesirable phenomenon occurring in this gas bearing. The negative load carrying capacity for the non-contacting suspension support of the object utilizing the negative pressure of this gas bearing is investigated experimentally, and is also discussed in this paper.

To enhance the bearing stability, noncircular type bearings are often used instead of tilting-pad journal bearings. When the optimum design method is applied to elliptical type journal bearing, it is found that the stability of the bearing could be improved greatly by choosing bearing orientation angle as the optimum. In this study, the effects of bearing orientation angle on the stabilities of rotating shaft are examined theoretically for the cases of six kinds of noncircular type journal bearings which have circular and elliptical base geometries.

In the paper-web transportation systems, the moving web and rotating roller bring the surrounding air between web and roller due to viscosity. As a result, the web-roller interface behaves as the self-acting foil bearings, and it causes a decrease of traction between the web and the roller. Increasing the air film thickness more than the asperity heights of web and roller surfaces, the available traction is nothing more than the fluid film friction which is actually equivalent to the zero-friction. As a decrease in traction in a direct result of air entrainment between web and roller, it is important to predict the friction coefficient including the effects of air film for controlling the traction in many web applications. In this paper, the friction model between paper-web and roller is presented with experimental verifications.

This paper describes the characteristics of circular aerostatic thrust bearing with a single air supply hole. In case of high air supply pressure or large bearing clearance, it was reported that shock wave occurs and forms complex fluid structure in the bearing clearance. However, it is very difficult to obtain the information of flow structure in detail from flow visualization because of very narrow clearance. Therefore, the flow field was calculated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and pressure distribution in the bearing clearance was measured. It was consequently found that pressure distributions obtained by CFD are good agreement with experimental data and that CFD is useful for prediction of pressure distribution in bearing clearance of circular aerostatic thrust bearing.

Aerostatic journal bearings with compound restrictors have been often used in high speed spindles because of low friction and high accuracy of motion. However, they also have disadvantages such as lower bearing stiffness and smaller load capacity than hydrostatic bearings. We, therefore, propose the method to increase bearing stiffness and load capacity by raising supply pressure to the medium pressure region. In this paper the dynamic characteristics of aerostatic journal bearings with compound restrictors in medium supply pressure region are investigated numerically and experimentally.

In obtaining lubricant oils' properties under high pressure for tribo-CAD, a diamond-anvil pressure cell (DAC) was employed. A falling sphere viscometry in the DAC with appropriate heating system enabled the measurements up to 2 GPa at 200℃ for traction oils. Pressure-viscosity coefficient, which is important for EHL analysis and rolling fatigue estimation of machine elements, at 200℃ was 1/3 ∿ 1/4 smaller than that at 40℃. Density (volume) was obtained with DAC and with newly established laser confocal displacement sensor of 0.4μm resolution up to 6 GPa for several oils. Some high-pressure viscosity data are listed in web site homepage as databases, and anyone can access and utilize them for tribo-CAD.

In order to measure the dielectric breakdown voltage of the thin oil film, the dynamic electrical wear test machine was designed and developed. It consisted of the rotating steel ring and the steel ball. The gap between the ring and the ball was adjustable at the accuracy of 1μm. With increasing the gap at 50rpm, the dielectric breakdown voltage increased at the rate of about 54V/μm. With increasing the concentration of contaminant or the rotational speed, the dielectric breakdown occurred easily at wider gap or lower voltage.

In this paper, we propose slurry jet, a new type of solid particle impact test, in order to quickly evaluate wear properties of physical vapor deposited (PVD) coating drills in commercial use. By slurry jet 1μm alumina particles were impacted at high velocity perpendicular to thin PVD coatings of TiN, TiN/CrN, TiN/TiAlN deposited on a high speed steel (HSS) substrate material. The geometry of the worn surfaces was measured with a stylus profilometer at each test interval. The distance between the original and worn surface at the deepest position was measured and designated as the wear depth. Linear wear was obtained for both coating and substrate material, and the penetration through the coating into the substrate was signified by a sharp increase in slope of the wear versus time curve. In addition our tests were found to be highly reproducible for coating drills. The TiN coating drills proved to have much higher wear resistance than the substrate material. The PVD coatings deposited on the drills showed the same wear rates as those on the plate specimens as reference samples. We conclude that our proposed evaluation technique for coating drills is considerably useful as screening test when evaluating coating tools. For the coatings included in this study, the TiN/TiAlN proved to have the highest wear resistance, whereas the TiN/CrN was the worst.

In order to make clear the high speed operating limit or the seizure resistance limit of the ball screw, it is necessary to grasp the actual ball motion in the ball screw, and the development of measuring method of the ball motion has been expected. In the present paper, using a magnetized ball and hall elements arranged on the nut and the return tube, the authors tried to measure the ball motion in the ball screw (ZFT4020) rotating at the shaft speed in the range of 120∿950rpm. The results were compared with the analytical results calculated based on the kinematic geometry of ball screw mechanisms. When the magnetic circuit attached to the measuring system, it became possible to observe the changes in the hall voltage, and the measured values such as the rotational speed of ball revolution and ball rotation almost agreed with the analytical values.

The synthesis process from the function design to structure design is most important for such new creative development. It is effective to combine the graphical design process, the function designs process and also the structure design process, based on a development concept. The usual prediction technology by forward CAE is poor at a creative process. "Visual Thinking", to help the imagination to new structure/design, and "Thinking CAE", to grasp the essence of new developed structure, are key technology. The construction of the digital engineering environment to digitalize directly the visual information of new image, as virtual reality, becomes needed

The Authors present a system supporting easily designing by using an engineering design method mixed with TRIZ and P&B method. Early stages are most important, in the design processes, to develop creative products. The support system is focused on the stages. The system has following functions; reading for design 1) to follow the design processes by our made "guideline", 2) to solve problems by "TRIZ", 3) to draw rough sketches and functional structures by "easy CAD", 4) to evaluate design alternatives by "AHP tool".

For the educations of the design and the skill, practice of CAD/CAE software after the employment in a private enterprise, which was consistent, now sufficient time is not taken, under the recent severe conditions. Therefore the importance of the design education in the university is more and more increasing. This paper shows the outlines of two cases of CAE education for the college students. As the first case a lecture in the Nihon university is shown, in which the present status of CAE in the enterprise is introduced, exhaustively. (The experience of the CAE software is also contained.) The second case is a design practice (required subject) in the university of Shiga prefecture in which the CAD/CAE tools are wholly adopted for the past five years.

We must structure new environment for aiding engineering based on network computation due to the progress of the network environment of the computer. We propose the concept of W2E (Web Engineering Environment) which is a engineering framework for aiding engineering based on network computation. For this framework we propose the master model WMM (Web Master Model). Its model uses XVL (eXtensible Virtual world description Language) which is a 3D model Web3D in XML (eXtensible Makeup Language). We made possible a solid model, CAE attributes (i.e. Load condition, boundary condition etc) and the expression of CAE result contour by using XVL for WMM. As a result, by using integrated W2E with WMM, we demonstrated that W2E could share easily WMM which gave comment information to the 3D model and the result of CAE between the design section, the analytic section and others section at Web.

Initially Characteristic Topology Method (CTM) was proposed for objects topologically the ball to generate quadrilateral meshes on it without self-intersections of dual cycles. The last condition for the surface meshes is necessary for further hexahedral mesh generation according to Hannemann's approach called Dual Cycle Elimination Method. The CTM itself determines three kinds of templates that helt to generate basic dual cycles and satisfy mentioned requirements. The way of template application allows topology different from the ball such as a surface with arbitrary number of holes. This property encourages investigatinng 3D space and solid mesh for complex objects without its decomposition. The coarse and dense parts of the mesh can be defined from nodal structure and generation of additional characteristic dual cycles for each basic dual cycle. The combination of the latter dual cycles for different basic ones provides verity of local mesh structure that one may choose due to demand for further analysis.

This paper describes on a new CAD system for the plastic processing that works on the common data base of CAD, CAM, CAE. We are developing 3D modeling methods that have following distinctive feature. 1) No error on the continuity between the surfaces. 2) Free from disgusting fillet operation. 3) Epoch-making process design function such as the deformation capability on the volume conservation low. 4) Temporary solver that works on common data of CAD/CAM/CAE. We propose there-engineering by the use of New CAD-system.

In this report the arrangement of devices and cabling of harness in the satellite has been demonstrated on the INDEX satellite. INDEX is a piggy back satellite and it size is 45×46×50cm and the weight is about 67kg. The arrangement and cabling are very difficult in the INDEX, because INDEX has 40 devices and more the 700 cables and the density of it is 30% higher than regular satellite. Especially as far as the author knows, this is the first time in the Japanese development of satellite that made cable and analyzes its influence on a mass property.

From the viewpoint of the pedestrian protection and the light collision in the car, it is effective to make deformation quantity large under the small load. In order to increase deformation quantity of axis crash problems, it is important how to make beautifully folded patterns. Therefore, in this research, on the basis of the principle of the origami engineering, several kinds of completely foldable structures were proposed. In addition, the characteristic of the proposed structures were analyzed by using finite element method simulation and optimized by the method of response curved surface method.
