There have been many recent studies on the nonlinear rainfall-runoff modeling, where the use of neural networks is shown to be quite successful. Due to fundamental limitation of linear structures, employing linear models has often been considered inferior to the neural network approaches in this area. However, we believe that with an appropriate extension, the concept of linear impulse responses can be a viable tool since it enables us to understand underlying dynamics principles better. In this paper, we propose the use of multiple impulse responses for the problem of rainfall-runoff analysis. The proposed method is based on a simple and fixed strategy for switching among multiple linear impulse-response models, each of which satisfies the constraints of non-negativity and uni-modality. The computational analysis performed for a certain Korean hydrometeorologic data set showed that the proposed method can yield very meaningful results.

The high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system introduces inevitable non-linear distortion in the transmission due to the amplifier non-linear property. This causes both in-band distortion and out of band spectrum re-growth. In this paper we tried to compensate the problem by using polynomial based pre-distortion. Estimation of both the non-linear and inverse non-linear polynomial is achieved using the Least Square Error (LSE) method. Using these parameters closed form pre-distorter can be easily created. We also used the 'partial peak cancellation and clipping' method to remove the high peak present in the non constant amplitude of the OFDM signal responsible to drive the amplifier in near saturation region for better performance of the system

최근 영구자석 선형 동기 전동기(PMSLM)는 이동 장치로써 많은 분야에 사용되고 있다. 영구자석 선형 동기 전동기는 구조적으로 간단하며 고속화 고추력화 등의 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 단 1차형 영구자석 선형 동기 전동기는 매우 큰 디텐트력을 지니고 있어 추력 맥동의 원인이 되며, 이는 소음과 진동을 발생시킨다. 단 1차형 영구자석 선형 동기 전동기의 디텐트력은 전기자 내부의 치와 영구자석 사이에 작용하는 힘과 전기자 양 단부와 영구자석 사이에서 작용하는 힘의 합으로 표현된다. 본 논문에서는 코킹력이 획기적으로 감소한 9극 10슬롯 모델의 단부력을 줄이기 위한 방법으로 양 단부에 전기자 길이 조정법과 챔퍼링 법을 사용하였고, 반응표면법과 ($(1+{\lambda})$ evolution strategy)을 이용하여 최적화를 수행하였다.

본 논문에서는 MEBP(Modified Error Back-Propagation) 학습 규칙을 간단한 비선형 회로를 이용하여 구현하였다. 인공 신경 회로망(ANNs : Artificial Neural Networks)은 많은 수의 뉴런을 필요하기 때문에 표준 CMOS 기술을 이용하는 간단한 비선형 시냅스(synapse) 회로는 인공 신경 회로망 구현에 적합하다. 학습회로는 비선형 시냅스 회로. 시그모이드(sigmoid) 회로. 그리고 선형 곱셈기로 구성되어 있다. 학습 회로의 출력은 각 입력 패턴에 따라 유일한 값으로 결정되어진다. 제안한 학술회로를 $2{\times}2{\times}1$과 $2{\times}3{\times}1$ 다층 feedforward 신경 회로망 모델에 적용하였다. MEBP 하드웨어 구현은 HSPICE 회로 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 검증하였다. 제안한 학술 회로는 on-chip 학습회로를 포함한 대규모 신경회로망 구현에 매우 적합하리라 예상된다.

In the present study, nonlinear earthquake analysis was carried out for a steel girder bridge that had been damaged by the 1995 Kobe earthquake. For such analysis, the use of hysteretic models describing flexure-axial and shear-axial interaction was suggested. The models were incorporated into a structural analysis program in terms of the joint elements representing hinge models, and then a simplified analysis scheme using the hinge models was employed for bridge piers. The analytical predictions of the flexure-axial interactive hinge model show a good correlation with those of the detailed fiber element model. In addition, the analytical predictions of the flexure-shear-axial interactive hinge model enable a displacement component to be separately captured. It is thus recognized that the present study can be a useful scheme for the healthy evaluation of the global displacement performance of piers subjected to earthquake excitation.

In this paper, we propose a systematic method for intelligent digital redesign of a fuzzy-model-based controller for continuous-time nonlinear dynamical systems which may also contain uncertainties. The continuous-time uncertain TS fuzzy model is first constructed to represent the uncertain nonlinear systems. An extended parallel distributed compensation(EPDC) technique is then used to design a fuzzy-model-based controller for both stabilization and tracking. The designed continuous-time controller is then converted to an equivalent discrete-time controller by using an integrated intelligent digital redesign method. This new design technique provides a systematic and effective framework for integration of the fuzzy-model-based control theory and the advanced digital redesign technique for nonlinear dynamical systems with uncertainties. Finally, The single link flexible-joint robot arm is used as an illustrative example to show the effectiveness and the feasibility of the developed design method.

Epoxy asphalt concrete is used to reduce dead load and to increase durability on long-span steel bridge overlay. The strength development properties of epoxy asphalt concrete are affected by time and temperature because epoxy asphalt is two-phase reactive materials. The strength development of epoxy asphalt concrete should be predicted precisely to decide traffic opening time. Based on this background in mind, the prediction model for traffic opening time for epoxy asphalt pavement was proposed in this research. The developed model using nonlinear curve fitting revealed R2 value of 0.943 while the R2 value of the existing model using chemical kinetics was 0.806. An improved precise prediction result is to be obtained when the prediction model uses accurate temperature data of pavement.

A numerical model that can simulate the nonlinear behavior of ultra high strength fiber reinforced concrete (UHSFRC) structures subjected to monotonic loading is introduced. The material properties of UHSFRC, such as compressive and tensile strength or elastic modulus, are different from normal strength reinforced concrete. The uniaxial compressive stress-strain relationship of UHSFRC is designed on the basis of experimental result, and the equivalent uniaxial stress-strain relationship is introduced for proper estimation of UHSFRC structures. The steel is uniformly distributed over the concrete matrix with particular orientation angle. In advance, this paper introduces a numerical model that can simulate the tension-stiffening behavior of tension part of the axial member on the basis of the bond-slip relationship. The reaction of steel fiber is considered for the numerical model after cracks of the concrete matrix with steel fibers are formed. Finally, the introduced numerical model is validated by comparison with test results for idealized UHSFRC beams.
