In this work, a steady-state performance modeling and off-design performance analysis of the 2-spool separate jet turbofan engine named BR715-56 which is a power plant for the narrow body commercial aircraft is carried out for engine performance behaviors investigation and condition monitoring using a commercial code MATLAB/SIMULINK. Firstly, the engine component maps of fan, high pressure compressor, high pressure turbine and low pressure turbine are generated from similar component maps using the scaling method, and then the off-design performance simulation model is constructed by the mass flow matching and the work matching between components. The model is developed using SIMULINK, which has advantages of easy steady-stare and dynamic modelling and user friendly interface function. It is found that the off-design performance analysis results using the proposed model are well agreed with the performance analysis results by GASTURB at various operating conditions.

In this study, we performed a study to track the angle between the guided weapon and the target by using the strap-down image seeker, and constructed a test bed that can simulate it visually. This paper describes a method to maintain high-performance feature distribution in the implementation of sparse feature tracking algorithm such as Lucas Kanade's optical flow algorithm for target tracking using image information. We have extended the feature tracking problem to the concept of feature management. To realize this, we constructed visual environment using Unity3D engine and developed image processing simulation using OpenCV. For the co-simulation, dynamic system modeling was performed with Matlab Simulink, the visual environment using Unity3D was constructed, and computer vision work using OpenCV was performed.

Automatic Identification System used in ship communication is required for marine control way, including monitoring of vessel operation in coastal and exchanging of information for safety navigation between them. But, it uses a very high frequency band of approximately 160 MHz, and at the same time, due to the curvature of Earth, there is a limit to the communication distance. Several demonstrations were made successfully over satellite, but not much work has been done yet through cube-satellite which has low-orbit at 500 km altitude. Here, we demonstrate a reception test of AIS (automatic identification system) receiver for a cube-satellites using software-defined radio (SDR). We collected AIS data from ship at port of Busan, Korea, using R8202T2 SDR and established to transmit them using Adam-Pluto and Matlab Simulink. The process of weakening the signal strength to a satellite was constructed using attenuator. Through above process, we demonstrated whether AIS data was successfully received from the AIS payload.

A flexible one-link robotic manipulator is modelled as a rotating cantilever beam with a hub and tip mass. An active control law is developed with consideration of the distributed flexibility of the arm. Equation of motion is derived by Hamilton's principle and, for modal control, represented as state variable form using Galerkin's mode summation method. Feedback coefficients are chosen to minimize the linear quadratic performance index(PI). To reconstruct the complete state vector from the measurements, an observer is proposed. In order to suppress vibration of the manipulator arm to desirable extent and to obtain accuracy of the positioning, weighting factor of input in PI is adjusted. Spillover effect due to the controller which controls several important modes is examined. Experiment is also performed to validate the theoretical analysis.

Currently, 6-axis articulated robots are used throughout the industry because of their 6-dof (degrees of freedom) and usability. However, 6-axis articulated robots have a fixed base and their movements are limited by the rotational operating range of each axis. If the angle of the 2-axis additional axes can be adjusted according to the position and orientation of the end-effector of the 6-axis articulated robot, the effectiveness of the 6-axis articulated robot can be further increased in areas where the angle is important, such as welding. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed a cooperative kinematic inter-operation strategy. The strategy will be verified using the Simulink of MATLABⓇ, an engineering program, and RecurdynⓇ, a dynamic simulation program.

In this paper, DF(Dual Fuel) Generator modeling, which uses both conventional diesel fuel and LNG fuel, has been performed and monitoring system has been developed based on MATLAB/SIMULINK for the development of PMS(Power Management System) HILS(Hardware In the Loop Simulation). The principal components modeling of DF Generator are DF engine which provides the mechanical power and synchronous generator which convert the mechanical power into electrical power. Submodels, such as throttle body, intake manifold, torque generation and mass of LNG and diesel Quantity are used to perform DF engine. Also, governor is used for load sharing between paralleled DF generators to share a total load that exceeds the capacity of a single generator. To verify modeling of DF Generator designated ship lumped load Simulation is carried out. A validity of DF Generator has been verified by comparison between simulation results and estimated result from the designated lumped load.

This paper describes a test case generation algorithm for Simulink/Stateflow models based on the Rapidly exploring Random Tree (RRT) algorithm that has been successfully applied to path finding. An important factor influencing the performance of the RRT algorithm is the metric used for calculating the distance between the nodes in the RRT space. Since a test case for a Simulink/Stateflow (SL/SF) model is an input sequence to check a specific condition (called a test target in this paper) at a specific status of the model, it is necessary to drive the model to the status before checking the condition. A status maps to a node of the RRT. It is usually necessary to check various conditions at a specific status. For example, when the specific status represents an SL/SF model state from which multiple transitions are made, we must check multiple conditions to measure the transition coverage. We propose a unique distance calculation metric, based on the observation that the test targets are gathered around some specific status such as an SL/SF state, named key nodes in this paper. The proposed metric increases the probability that an RRT is extended from key nodes by imposing penalties to non-key nodes. A test case generation algorithm utilizing the proposed metric is proposed. Three models of Electrical Control Units (ECUs) embedded in a commercial vehicle are used for the performance evaluation. The performances are evaluated in terms of penalties and compared with those of the algorithm using a typical RRT algorithm.

Motion control of the system is a position control of motor. Motion control of an uncertain robot system is considered as one of the most important and fundamental research directions in the robotics. Some distinguished works using linear control, adaptive control, robust control strategies based on computed torque methodology have been reported. However, it is generally recognized within the control community that these strategies suffer from the following problems : the exact robot dynamics are needed and hard to implement, the adaptive control cannot guarantee the performance during the transient period for adaptation under the variation, the robust control algorithms such as the sliding mode control need information on the bounds of the possible uncertainty and disturbance. And it produces a large control input as well. In this dissertation, a motion control for the unmanned intelligent robot system using disturbance observer is studied. This system is affected with an impact vibration disturbance. This paper describes a stable motion control of the system with the consideration of external disturbance. To obtain the stable motion independently against the external disturbance, the disturbance rejection is strongly required. To address the above issue, this paper presents a Disturbance OBserver(DOB) control algorithm. The validity of the suggested DOB robust control scheme is confirmed by several computer simulation results. And the experiments with a motor system is performed to give the validity of applicability in the industrial field. This results make the easier implementation of the controller possible in the field.

In city, tracing of power transmission lines is difficult due to compound installation of overhead and underground lines, transposition, bad view caused by trees or big buildings. It is hard problem for electrical technician on site to trace power transformers or power lines to serve customers in 3 phase -4 wires power distribution systems. It is necessary that the correct and fast tracing method is required for load balancing among distribution lines. Old technology use to trace lines with high power impulse injection. Our proposed method uses to trace lines with very small power high frequency signal injection. Simulation models for 3-phase power transformers, 3-phase wire lines, and customer loads are described to investigate the transmission characteristics of high frequency power line carrier. Distribution lines have only a limited ability to carry higher frequencies. Typically power transformers in the distribution system prevent propagating the higher frequency carrier signal. The proposed method uses the limited propagation ability to identify the power transformer to serve customers. The system consists of a transmitter and a receiver with power-line communication module. Some experiments are conducted to verify the theoretical concepts in a big commercial building. Also some simulations are done to help and understand the concepts by using MATLAB Simulink simulator.

A performacne simulation model of the PT6A-62 turboprop engine using the $SIMULINK^R$ was proposed to predict transient and steady state behaviors. The $SIMULINK^R$ has several advantages such as user-friendliness due to the GUI(Graphic User Interfaces) and ease in the modification of the computer program. The $SIMULINK^R$ model consists of subsystems to represent engine gas path components such as flight initial subsystem, compressor subsystem, burner subsystem, compressor turbine subsystem, power turbine, exhaust nozzle subsystem and integrator subsystem. In addition to subsystems, there are search subsystems to find an appropriate operating point by scaling from the 2-D components look-up table, Gasprop Subsystem to calculate the gas property precisely. In case of steady state validation, performance results analyzed by the proposed $SIMULINK^R$ model were agreed well with the analysis results by the commercial GASTURB program. Moreover in validation of the transient model, it was found that performance simulation results by the proposed model were reasonable agreement with analysis results by the well-proved computer program using FORTRAN.
