In this paper, presented are design, analysis, and experimental result of a tunable surface micromachined resonant accelerometer, ACRC-RXL. Also fabrication process of mechanical structure is illustrated. We used 40[μm] thick epitaxially grown polysilicon as structural layer and sealing area. With the exception of the CMP process, for smoothing the bonding area, the fabrication processes are simple as the conventional surface micromachining process. Experimental results show that the developed accelerometer has a performance of bias stability about 0.5mg and dynamic range over 10g.

Two typical types of MR damper were proposed, where the orifice for MR fluid was designed to place between the piston and the cylinder in one type, and to place on the piston in the other type. In the former design, MR fluid was expected to be subjected to shear flow in the orifice, and subjected to Poiseuille flow in the latter design. The damping force of MR dampers was experimentally measured under various conditions of piston speed, piston amplitude and applied electric current to the magnetic coil. The experimental results showed that the maximum damping force were almost the same in both types of damper under the same conditions, except for case under very little amplitude. It was also shown that typical characteristics of MR damper depended on the clearance of orifice and air volume in MR dampers, and the optimal design for the dynamic range of damping force existed in relation to the clearance of orifice. The experimental result of the damping force of these dampers showed good agreement with the analytical result.

To solve the precision manufacturing of thin-walled irregular-shaped workpiece, the MR fluids flexible fixture was designed and the simulation of device with compression structure was carried out to obtain performance parameters of device for optimizing the device. Then, some experimental test was implemented to verify the feasibility of device. The simulation and experimental results show that the current and coil turns have a great influence on magnetic field, and the shear stress of MR fluids are related with magnetic field and external compression force. The experimental results are in good agreement with simulation ones.

Directional control valve is the main part in hydraulic system which has complex construction, such as moving spool to control the direction of actuator for required speed. Utilizing MR fluid properties, direct interface can be realized between magnetic field and fluid power without the need for moving parts like spool in directional control valves. This paper dedicates the experimental test of four ways, three position MR directional control valve. The experimental methods were done by connecting the MR directional control valve with hydraulic actuators. The experiment was conducted to show the principle work of the valve functionally and performance test for valve was done. The valve works proportionally to control the direction and speed of hydraulic actuators. As a result, the experimental result demonstrates the operation of MR directional control valve using two configurations. The experimental about ON-OFF and proportional operations is discussed. The MR directional control valve can replace many types of the spool directional control valve for controlling hydraulic actuator.

This paper presents a design and performance tests of in-plane gimbal-structured Z-axis gyroscope. The device is manufactured by conventional surface micro machining process using 15µm-thickness epitaxially grown polysilicon. The total size of the device is 4.8mm x 4.8mm in area including 1mm x 1mm core gyro structure and pads for wire bonding. It is designed as two-gimbaled structure which separates inner and outer gimbals. This leads two nearly identical modes of gyroscope, i.e. driving and sensing mode, to mechanically decoupled ones, resulting in enhanced performance. Experiments are accomplished through frequency analysis and dynamic tests using a detection circuit, a vacuum chamber and a rate table. Through experiments, it is confirmed that the designed gyroscope has 0.003 deg/sec resolution, 0.00095 deg/sec/ Hz noise equivalent density, 0.57 % FSO nonlinearity error and 0.02 deg/sec bias stability.

In order to control the vibration of civil building structures, a magnetic rate-controlled stage damper (MRCSD) is designed based on a magnetorheological shear thickening fluid (MR-STF). The key technology and performance test of the damper and the parameter identification of the mechanical model are studied. The experimental results show that the main cylinder filled with MR-STF combines the magnetorheological (MR) effect and the shear thickening effect, which has a strong impact on energy dissipation and vibration reduction. Therefore, the designed damper is superior to the traditional viscous damper. With the increase of magnetic field strength, the shear thickening effect of the MR fluid is inhibited and the MR effect is more obvious. The MRCSD can improve the performance of vibration isolation and vibration reduction by controlling damping. Under a different intensity of earthquake, the maximum output can reach 250.2 kN; the mechanical model of the MRCSD is established; and the design parameters of the damper are determined. The theoretical results obtained from the mechanical model of the MRCSD are consistent with the experimental results, which show that the parameter identification method is feasible and effective.

A concurrent program is intuitively associated with probability: the executions of the program can produce nondeterministic execution program paths due to the interleavings of threads, whereas some paths can always be executed more frequently than the others. An exploration of the probabilities on the execution paths is expected to provide engineers or compilers with support in helping, either at coding phase or at compile time, to optimize some hottest paths. However, it is not easy to take a static analysis of the probabilities on a concurrent program in that the scheduling of threads of a concurrent program usually depends on the operating system and hardware (e.g., processor) on which the program is executed, which may be vary from machine to machine. In this paper the authors propose a platform independent approach, called ProbPP, to analyzing probabilities on the execution paths of the multithreaded programs. The main idea of ProbPP is to calculate the probabilities on the basis of two kinds of probabilities: Primitive Dependent Probabilities (PDPs) representing the control dependent probabilities among the program statements and Thread Execution Probabilities (TEPs) representing the probabilities of threads being scheduled to execute. The authors have also conducted two preliminary experiments to evaluate the effectiveness and performance of ProbPP, and the experimental results show that ProbPP can provide engineers with acceptable accuracy.
