In this paper, in order to reduce the cogging torque in a permanent motor, a method to optimize the shape of permanent magnet and iron pole is presented. Because the cogging torque comes from the irregular system energy variation according to the rotor position, system energy variation is taken as object function and the object function is minimized to optimize the shape. The positions of permanent magnet surface and iron pole surface are chosen as design parameters and sensitivity of object function with respect to design parameter is calculated.

In this paper, state observer systems without sensors are investigated. State observer systems are required to estimate the states quickly and exactly without being affected by the disturbances. Thus, in this paper, the effects of systems poles and observer poles are studies. In addition, the parameter variations are also considered to evaluate the effect of them to the observer based systems. Also, in this paper a whole system which includes compensators, observers and loads are considered and analysed by using numerical simulations.

This paper presents the speed control of dc motor based on deadbeat response. The deadbeat response is that the output reaches the final value in the minimum possible settling time and stays there. This results demonstrate that the output reaches final value in one sampling time for the unsaturated region, and in one sampling time after getting free from the saturation state for the saturated region.

A microprocessor-based multi-function switchgear for the protection, measurement and control of the power system is presented. For the extraction of the RMS values of the fundamental components of current and voltage signals, a simple digital filter based on cross-correlation of the distorted signal with even and odd heptagonal waves is used. The frequency response of this filter is almost identical to that of the filter based on the discrete fourier transform, while its computational requirement is far less. For the time delay element relaying, a new log-table based relaying algorithm is suggested. The suggested use of the heptagonal wave cross-correlation digital filter algorithm and a new relaying algorithm reduce the computational needs so drastically that all functions of the switchgear can be implemented on the microprocessor system. Real time testing of the implemented daboratory prototype show good practical response under different operating conditions.

When the MOSPET is applied as a switching device for the resonant inverter, a damped oscillating noise is appeared at specific frequency band. This damped Oscillation is caused by the series and parallel resonance due to distributed circuit parameter of snubber and main circuit. This paper describes the frequency-impedance characteristic of the resonant inverter and optimal snubber design strategy to reduce the RF noise.

This paper describes the design of the power conversion system for the 3-ton prototype magnetic levitation system. Electric power needed for the propulsion and levitation system of the vehicle is supplied by the wayside rectifier through the power rail and is picked up by the on board power collector, and is supplied to the propulsion VVVF inverter and levitation chopper. In this paper, design characteristic of the VVVF inverter, chopper and power source unit which provides control power to the levitation controller and levitation power to the chopper is described.

A new control algorithm is developed to achieve the robust performance of the system during the overall control process. Time-varying sliding manifolds are proposed to remove the reaching phase which is one of common shortcomings of variable structure control scheme. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a sliding mode on the newly proposed time-varying sliding mode on the newly proposed time-varying sliding manifolds is derived by Lyapunov's second method. The digital simulation results show that the newly proposed control algorithm is superior to the typical variable structure control algorithm with respect to the robust performance of the system. The simplicity of the proposed control algorithm encourages control engineers to implement the proposed control algorithm in many control problems.

The objective is to explore design concept for MIESF(Modified Integral error and State Feedback) controller. A method is outlined for designing MIESF controller that provides robust performance despite real parameter uncertainties in the process model. Insight into the design process is gained by viewing the MIESF from the perspective of IMC(Internal Model Control).

A new approach of a time-varying switching hyperplane based on the theory of variable structure system (VSS) is proposed for the control of multivariable systems. While the conventional switching surface can net achieve the robust performance against parameter variations and disturbances before the sliding mode occurs, the proposed switching hyperplane, which is obtained from the eigen-structure assignment theory powerfully used in the linear multivariable systems, ensures the sliding mode from the initial state. And new continuous control input which guarantees the sliding mode is proposed. This new control input does not arise chattering problem which arises with the conventional control input of variable structure control systems. Through numerical examples, the expellant performances of the proposed controller are verified.

This note presents a novel algorithm for a continuous-time direct adaptive pole placement control for single-input single-out nonminimum phase systems. Although the resulting overall closed-loop system is locally stable, assumptions about parameter convergence or the nature of the external input are not considered.

This paper proposes a design procedure based on the LQG/LTR method for a launch vehicle autopilot. Continuous-discrete type LQG/LTR compensators are designed using the $\delta$-transformation [1] in order to overcome numerical problems occurring in the process of discretization. The $\delta$-LQG/LTR compensator using the $\delta$-transformation is compared with the $\delta$-LQG/LTR compensator using the $\delta$-transformation. The performance of the overall system controlled by the $\delta$-LQG/LTR compensator is evaluated via simulations, which show that the discretization error problem is resolved and the control performances are satisfied in the proposed compensator.

The conventional quantitative techniques of system analysis are intrinsically unsuited for dealing with humanistic systems. Therefore, the rule based modeling of fuzzy linguistic type has been developed for the analysis of humanistic systems and complex systems and it is very significant for analysis and design of fuzzy logic controller. The activated sludge process is a commonly used method for treating sewage and waste waters. A mathematical tool to build a fuzzy model of the activated sludge process where fuzzy implications and linear reasoning are used is presented in here. A root-mean square error is used as the criterion of the fuzzy model's adequacy to the A.S.P. and the least square method is used for the identification of optimum consequence parameters. A method of modeling of the activated sludge process using its input-output data and simulation results for its application are shown.

An iterative learning control scheme for exact-tracking control and parameter estimation of uncertain robotic systems is presented. In the learning control structure, tracking and feedforward input converge globally and asymptotically as iteration increases. Since convergence of parameter errors depends only on the persistent exciting condition of system trajectories along the iteration independently of length of trajectories, it may be achieved with only system trajectories of small duration. In addition, these learning control schemes are expected to be effectively applicable to time-varying parametric systems as well as time-invariant systems, for the parameter estimation is performed at each fixed time along the iteration. Finally, no usage of acceleration signal and no in version of estimated inertia matrix in the parameter estimator makes these learning control schemes more feasible.

This paper describes a pattern classification algorithm of QRS-complexes using significant point detection for extracting features of signals. Significant point extraction was processed by zero-crossing method, and decision function based on relational spectrum was used for pattern classification of the QRS-complexes. The hierarchical AND/OR graph was obtained by decomposing the signal, and by use of this graph, QRS's patterns were classified. By using the proposed algorithm, the accuracy of pattern classification and the processing speed were improved.

Neural networks are a class of systems that have many simple processors (neurons) which are highly interconnected. The function of each neuron is simple, and the behavior is determined predominately by the set of interconnections. Thus, a neural network is a special form of parallel computer. Although major impetus for using neural networks is that they may be able to "learn" the solution to the problem that they are to solve, we argue that another, perhaps even stronger, impetus is that they provide a framework for designing massively parallel machines. The highly interconnected architecture of switching networks suggests similarities to neural networks. Here, we present switching applications in which neural networks can solve the problems efficiently. We also show that a computational advantage can be gained by using nonuniform time delays in the network.

A Multi-Robot Control language (MRCL) is proposed to effectively control the multi-robot. MRCL has not only single-robot, command, but multi-robot command with multi-task OS, XINU. Concurrent motion, coordinate motion, and simple collision avoidance motion are implemented. This language is expected to act as a intelligent supporting tool for multi-robot system. To verify the effectiveness of the MRCL, a simple puzzle matching example is illustrated.

In this paper, production system is implemented with the inferential neural network model using semantic network and directed graph. Production system can be implemented with the transform of knowledge representation in production system into semantic network and of semantic network into directed graph, because directed graphs can be expressed by neural matrices. A concept node should be defined by the state vector to calculated the concepts expressed by matrices. The expressional ability of neunal network depends on how the state vector is defined. In this study, state vector is overlapped and each overlapping part acts as a inheritant of concept.

Texture provides an important source of information about the local orientation of visible surfaces. An important task that arises in many computer vision systems is the reconstruction of three-dimensional depth information from two-dimensional images. The surface orientation of texel is classified by the Artificial Neural Network. The classification method to recognize the shape of 3D object with artificial neural network requires less developing time comparing to conventional method. The segmentation problem is assumed to be solved. The surface in view is smooth and is covered with repeated texture elements. In this study, 3D shape reconstruct using interpolation method.

This thesis proposes a new scheme for the recognition of presegmented Hangul characters. The proposed approach is rather insensitive to noise and variation by applying 2 dimensional convolution to learning patterns. In this thesis, the hangul recognition neural network is implemented in the basis of this scheme and recognition rate is analyzed in boo cases of learning which are learning by binary patterns and learning by binary patterns and convoluted patterns together.

In this thesis, the recognition method of the movement of an 3D object is presented. The information about the movement of a 3D object is used to recognize the object. There are 2 kinds of movements which are translation and rotation. A difference picture is obtained from a sequence of images of a moving object or a scene which is taken by a monocular stationary observer. The 3D movement of an object is recognized by the Artificial Neural Network(ANN) using the difference picture.
