In this paper, the preliminary design procedure of magnetorheological (MR) dampers is developed for controlling the building response induced by seismic excitation. The dynamic characteristics and control effects of the modeling methods of MR dampers such as Bingham, biviscous, hysteretic biviscous, simple Bouc?Wen, Bouc?Wen with mass element, and phenomenological models are investigated. Of these models, hysteretic biviscous model which is simple and capable describing the hysteretic characteristics, is used for numerical studies. The capacity of MR damper is determined as a portion of not the building weight but the lateral restoring force. A method is proposed for optimal placement and number of MR dampers, and its effectiveness is verified by comparing it with the simplified sequential search algorithm. Numerical results indicate that the capacity, number and the placement can be reasonably determined using the proposed design procedure.

Ophthalmoscopy following the intravenous injection of fluorescein has gained great diagnostic importance in ophthalmology. This technique provides sequential evaluation of the anatomic and physiologic status of the choroidal and retinal vasculature. In order to detect the changes between fluorescein ocular fundus image frames, the direct subtraction of the two frames is inadequate because of geometric distortions and background gray level differences in two images. In this study, a scheme for the correction of the geometric distortions is proposed. Precise control point coordinate values for transformation functions are manually determined after the process including a series of blood vessel detection and thinning, and one frame is mapped to another, and then a geometric distortion corrected image is obtained. When the corrected image is used in interframe change detections, a sucessful result is ensured.

IT-based automatic controller that control the temperature and humidity to prevent dew condensation of distributing board was designed and implemented in this paper. The dew condensation temperature was deduced from room temperature and humidity of distributing board. Based on the comparisons between the deduced dew condensation temperature and the temperature of surface condensation, the facilities that can prevent the condensation was implemented to be operated in due order. Also, the remote monitoring module to monitor operation status of controller was implemented using LoRa technique. The performances for controller operation and data transmission were validated from the transmission and operation test for dew condensation prevention. The controller can be put to good use at the facilities that requires the condensation prevention.

ITER AC/DC 컨버터(Converter)는 핵융합 발생을 위해 토카막의 초전도코일에 제어된 전류를 공급하여 플라즈마 발생, 형상 유지, 소멸하는 기능을 한다. 만일 컨버터 또는 초전도코일에 이상이 발생하면 즉시 보호동작이 실행되어야 한다. 이를 위해 설계된 F-LIC(Fast Local Interlock Controller)은 즉시 작동하여 Bypass 및 Make Switch 트리거, 차단기 작동 등을 순차적으로 수행한다. ITER Interlock System의 기기는 중요성이 고려되어 높은 신뢰도가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 F-LIC 회로분석과 Telcordia SR-332 Standard에 의한 부품고장률 산출방법을 사용하여 FMEDA를 분석하고, 이를 통하여 회로구성 부품의 고장이 미치는 영향과 F-LIC 제어모듈의 SIL-2 등급의 적합성을 분석하였다.

Time-Optimal solutions for attitude control with reaction wheels as well as with thrusters are studied. The suggested varying-time-sharing ratio thrusting is found to reduce the maneuvering time enormously. The hybrid control such as sequential hybrid and simultaneous hybrid with reaction wheels and thrusters are considered. The results show that simultaneous hybrid method reduces the maneuver time very much. Spacecraft model is KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT)-II, which is being developed by KARI in KOREA as an agile maneuvering satellite.

모바일 클라이언트(Mobile Client, MC) - 서버 환경에서 캐쉬된 공간 데이타는 용량과 가용성이 크고 긴단절을 가지는 특징이 있다. 이러한 긴 단절을 거친 MC의 일관성 제어시 캐쉬된 데이타 전체가 무효화되어 재전송 하는 것은 비효율적이므로 서버는 변경된 객체 정보를 로그로 기록하여, 캐쉬된 영역에 속하는 최근 변경 정보만을 전송하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 일반적으로 로그의 순차 검색과 불필요한 로그의 누적으로 인해 일관성 제어시 통신 비용이 증가하게 되므로, 서버의 로그 검색 시간과 전송량을 최소화 하기위한 기법이 필요하다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 로그를 이용안 공간 로그 인덱스(Spatial Log Index, SLI) 기법과 공간 로그 관리(Spatial Log Management, SLM) 기법을 제시하고 있다.

Stable-state behaviors of asynchronous sequential machines represented as finite state machines can be corrected by feedback control schemes. In this paper, we propose a state feedback control scheme for input/state asynchronous machines with uncertain transitions. The considered asynchronous machine is deterministic, but its state transition function is partially known due to model uncertainty or inner logic errors. The control objective is to compensate the behavior of the closed-loop system so that it matches a sub-behavior of a prescribed model despite uncertain transitions. Furthermore, during the execution of corrective action, the controller reflects the exact knowledge of transitions into the next step, i.e., the range of the behavior of the closed-loop system can be enlarged through learning. The design procedure for the proposed controller is described in a case study.

In this paper, an efficient signal interference control technique to improve the high convergence speed of LMS algorithms is introduced in the adaptive transversal filter of DS/SS. The convergence characteristics of the proposed algorithm, whose coefficients are multiply adapted in a symbol time period by recycling the received data, is analyzed to prove theoretically the improvement of high convergence speed. According as the step-size parameter ${\mu}$ is increased, the rate of convergence of the algorithm is controlled. Also, an increase in the stop-size parameter ${\mu}$ has the effect of reducing the variation in the experimentally computed learning curve. Increasing the eigenvalue spread has the effect of controlling which is downed the rate of convergence of the adaptive equalizer. Increasing the steady-state value of the average squared error, proposed algorithm also demonstrate the superiority of signal interference control to the filter algorithm increasing convergence speed by (B+1) times due to the data-recycling LMS technique.

The purpose of this study is to propose an effective operating method of a power generator used by the Emergency Power System in case of a simultaneous fire and of the limitations of the interlock system the power supply from the emergency power generator. On the Emergency Power System with Reserved Fire-fighting Power (RFP), in case of an overload, the collective control Emergency Power System signals the main circuit breaker to shut off the supply to the emergency load, leaving the supply to the firefighting load uninterrupted to the end. The sequential control Emergency Power System signals the firefighting power supply to shut off the fire stage of the emergency load and continues to monitor the power supply. If an overload happens again from increased firefighting load, the sequential control Emergency Power System sends a secondary signal to shut down the second stage of the emergency load.

This paper presents the problem of controlling asynchronous sequential machines in the presence of input disturbances, which may be also regarded as an adversary in a game theoretic setting. The main objective is to provide necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a corrective controller that solves model matching problem of an asynchronous machine suffering from input disturbance. The existence condition can be stated in terms of a simple comparison of two skeleton matrices. The proposed controller eliminates the adversarial effect of input disturbance and makes the controlled machine mimic the behavior of a model in stable-state way. Whenever controller exists, algorithms for their design are outlined and demonstrated in a case study.
