In this paper a design of neuro-fuzzy-based predictive controller for nonlinear systems with time-delay is proposed. The proposed control system contains two neuro-fuzzy systems called ANFIS(Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System). One is run as a series-parallel mode and the other is run as a parallel mode. An ANFIS running in series-parallel mode emulates the response of the nonlinear system with time-delay. Another ANFIS running in parallel mode generates the predicted output of the nonlinear system to compensate for the time-delays. Therefore, the proposed control system can be thought of as an extension of Smith-predictor scheme to the nonlinear systems with time-delay. A detailed design Procedure is presented and finally computer simulations are executed for the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Prime movers in engine rooms inherently are much affected by the adjustment of their governors for the steady state and transient properties, consequently requiring that marine engineers shall be well familiar with the way to manage governor dials for normal operation. The hydro-mechanical governors basically have different control characteristics and adjustment parameters of stability from digital governors. The former include compensation mechanism using dash pot while the control algorithm of the latter is usually based on the PID action. This study is for configuring a simulation module to let trainees practice how to adjust dials for stability on hydraulic governors in the view that the practice by real governors and engines is time consuming and high cost for operation. The governor module includes the adjusting points such as speed set, speed droop, needle valve and compensation pointer with engine module of $2^{nd}$ order coupled. The results of simulation showed satisfactory responses as a training tool for the adjustment of control parameters.

This paper resents a control approach for designing a fuzzy-PI controller for a synchronous generator excitation and SVC system A combination of thyristor-controlled reactors and fixed capacitors (TCR-FC) type SVC is recognized as having the must fiexible control and high speed response, which has been widely utilized in power systems, is considered and designed to improve the response of a synchronous generator, as well as controlling the system voltage A Fuzzy-PI controller for SVC system was proposed in this paper. The PI gain parameters of the proposed Fuzzy-PI controller which is a special type of PI ones are self-tuned by fuzzy inference technique. It is natural that the fuzzy inference technique should be barred on humans intuitions and empirical knowledge. Nonetheless, the conventional ones were not so. Therefore, In this paper, the fuzzy inference technique of PI gains using MMGM(Min Max Gravity Method) which is very similar to humans inference procedures, was presented and allied to the SVC system. The system dynamic responses are examined after applying all small disturbance condition.

The AC railway system is quite differing from the general electric power system because it is single- phase and intermittently heavy loads. Thus, inevitably power quality problems are occurred in the AC railway system, i.e. voltage regulation voltage sags, voltage imbalance, and harmonic distortion. Recently, the power quality of the AC railway system becoming a hot issue because it is affect the control and safety of high-speed traction. In addition it is also affect the power quality of the electric power system. In this paper, single-phase Unified Power Quality Conditioner(UPQS) for the AC railway system is proposed to compensate the voltage sags and harmonic distortion. The configurations and control schemes of the proposed single-phase UPQC are presented. The effectiveness of the proposed single-phase UPQC application is verified by the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation works. It can be shown that the application of UPQC in the AC railway system is very useful to compensate the voltage sags and harmonic distortion from the results of related simulation works.

A pressure control law to regulate pressure of gas generator is suggested. To design a model based control law, the governing equation which consists of Robert and conservation equation is built and verified through the ground burning test. PID and nonlinear adaptive control laws are designed to analyze the loop response characteristics under the system which has varying eigen properties arisen from combustion volume change. It is suggested that new approach, gain scheduling design, is required to overcome the defects identified from numerical simulation results of the two control laws. The newly suggested scheme shows good control performance even under disturbances and measurement noise.

The gain-clamped EDFA has been developed to eliminate the output power change of WDM surviving channels to occur with added or dropped channels, which degrades the performance of WDM optical network. It maintains the constant gain of surviving channels when WDM channels are added or dropped in a network amplifying node. In this paper, the hi-directionally pumped gain-clamped EDFA is implemented to compensate the change of the input power by a lasing. The results show that the lasing of a short wavelength and backward propagation is the optimal condition to minimize the transient response of surviving channels in terms of the overshoot and gain saturation due to the inhomogeneous broadening effect.

To design a model based control law, the governing equation which is consisted of Robert and conservation equation is built and verified through the ground burning test. PID and nonlinear adaptive control laws are designed to evaluate the loop response characteristics under the system which has varying eigen properties as combustor volume is increased. It is suggested that new approach, gain scheduling design, is required to overcome the defects identified from numerical simulation results of the two control laws. The newly suggested scheme showed good control performance even under disturbances and measurement noise.

This research conducted questionnaire surveys of church library managers and volunteers in church libraries, in order to improve volunteer management in church libraries by the analysis of current situation and problems with regards to operating volunteer activities. Seventy one church library managers out of 101 church libraries, and 221 volunteers responded to the questionnaire. The survey results indicated that volunteers' satisfaction with their work and need for education and continuous motivation Perception gap was found between managers and volunteers on application of task and the reward system Based on the results, this research suggests the ways of improvement for operating and training volunteers in church libraries.

The measured thrust could be distorted because of the transient response of thrust stand during combustion of rocket motor. As a result of the distorted thrust, it is not easy for us to know the values of thrust peak and thrust duration time. Therefore, it is of great importance to compute the true thrust from the measured thrust. In this study the method to eliminate the transient response from the measured thrust using only the measured thrust was Proposed, and also experimental data were used to approve the proposed method. The result showed that the proposed method would be available to compute the true thrust.

A new control method for robust position control of brushless dc motor is presented. The model of brushless dc motor is approximately linearized by field-orentation method, and it is shown that augmented state variable feedback can be applied to this system. In addition, robustness is obtained without any change of overall system response. Load disturbance is detected by 0-observer of unknown and inaccessible input, and is compensated by feedforward which has fast response. Overall system is controlled by using the MC68000 microprocessor, and the performance of the proposed control algorithm is verified by the results of simulation and experiment.
