  • In this work, tensile and in-plane shear tests for thermoplastic glass fiber/polypropylene composites were performed at a thermo-forming temperature and their properties were characterized and mathematically expressed by using the non-orthogonal constitutive model. As for the thermo-forming test, half-dome experiments were carried out by varying the usage of a releasing agent and the weight of holders. As results, the optimum final shape having well-aligned symmetry and no wrinkle formation was obtained when the releasing agent was used, and it was found that the careful control of a holding force is crucial to manufacture the healthy product. Furthermore, FEM simulations based on the non-orthogonal model showed similar final shapes and tendency of wrinkle formation with experimental results, and confirmed that wrinkles increase with less holding force and higher punch force is required under high frictional condition.

  • Purpose: In the near future, it is expected that UGV(unmanned ground vehicle) will be put into battle due to IT technology and unmanned technology development. In this study, we analyze the combat effectiveness considering communication effect where complex combat information and commands are transmitted. Methods: We use ABM(agent-based modeling) and wireless channel module which provides sophisticated communication effect through geographic information and UGV performance. And UGV combat simulation using wireless channel module is used to grasp the combat effectiveness according to the number of packets, which is a unit for storing all information and commands having high complexity. Results: The result of this study is to derive the optimal number of packets which does not decrease the combat effectiveness and the number of lost tanks. The number of packet increases, the survival ratio of our tanks are decreased. Conclusion: In this study, we reveal that the communication success or failure could affect the combat effectiveness. Also, it helps develope the standard communication protocol between UGVs and could be applied to analyze the cost effectiveness analysis in UGV combat environment.

  • This paper proposes a Multicast Tree Extension (MTE) scheme for multicast in IP-based wireless networks. If a group receiver Joins a multicast group in a visited foreign network, multicast service may be disrupted when the foreign network does not have a multicast router. To avoid disruption, our scheme creates a bi-directional tunnel between the previous foreign agent (FA) and new foreign agent, if a mobile node (MN) moves from a foreign network with multicast capability to another foreign network with non-multicast capability. The MN thus continues to receive the multicast packets through the tunnel from the previous FA. Our scheme can avoid a long latency due to a long tunneling for group membership as well as multicast service disruption, even if the MN enters foreign networks with non-multicast capability. Simulation results show that our scheme offers lower costs for multicast delivery, tunneling and handoff latency than the existing scheme.

  • The revenue histogram of venture businesses is shifting from bell-shaped normal distribution to power-law distribution, which implies that the fitness landscape of the venture businesses ecosystem is changing to be more rugged terrain. We argue that the firm should adopt both exploitation (fast follower) and exploration (or first mover) strategies not to get stuck in local maxima in the rugged fitness landscape from the complex system perspective. By designing and performing agent-based modeling simulation experiments which consist of three types of agents (new technologies, entrepreneurs, and consumers), we demonstrated that the ambidexterity strategy showed the highest performance score in three of four different environment except 'Fast Widening' case where the exploitation strategy showed the highest performance score under low technology appropriation and fast disruptive technology development speed. By investigating the financial and other statistics of 617 top venture businesses who have earned 100B won or higher annual revenue, we concluded that 82% and 9% of firms are bent on the exploitation and exploration strategy.

  • A control system design based on coupled nonlinear oscillators (CNOs) for a self-organized swarm system is presented. In this scheme, agents self-organize to flock and arrange group formations through attractive and repulsive forces among themselves using CNOs. Virtual agents are also used to create richer group formation patterns. The objective of the swarm control in this paper is to follow a moving target with a final group formation in the shortest possible time despite some obstacles. The simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme can effectively construct a self-organized multi-agent swarm system capable of group formation and group immigration despite the emergence of obstacles.

  • eSCM은 고객과의 주 접촉 수단으로써 다른 어떤 수단보다 비용절감과 시간적 공간적 제약을 극복할 수 있는 인터넷을 통해 공급체인을 구성하고 있는 모든 기업을 하나로 묶어 네트워크를 형성함으로써, 정보공유와 커뮤니케이션을 가능하게 하여 네트워크상의 모든 자원의 효율을 높이는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이러한 공급체인상의 모든 구성원 간의 통합이 실질적으로 효과를 나타내기 위해서는 조정된 방법으로 운영되어야 한다. 기업 환경의 새로운 변화에 유연하게 대처, 구성원간의 거래에서 정상 루트를 벗어난 예측하지 못했던 상황 즉, 고객의 변심에 따른 주문량 변경/취소, 계절적 요인으로 인한 주문량 폭주, 원자재/부품의 공급지연에 대한 납기 일정 수정 등에 대해 능동적이고 자율적으로 대처할 수 있는 공급체인 내에 Intelligent 기능을 가진 조정 에이전트를 적용한 개선된 공급체인 도입을 요구하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 eSCM의 구성원을 에이전트로 나타내어 이를 바탕으로 조정 에이전트 기반의 eSCM을 모델링하고 시뮬레이션을 통하여 그 조정 능력을 분석한다.

  • 암의 성장을 정확하게 예측할 수 있다면 암으로 고통 받는 많은 사람들에게 적절한 치료 및 처방을 내릴 수 있을 것이다. 그 동안 암의 성장을 예측하기 위하여 많은 연구가 진행되어왔는데 크게 나누어 하향식 설계 방법과 상향식 설계 방법이 있다. 하향식 방법은 전체적인 흐름을 파악하기는 쉽지만, 지역적 특성을 고려하기 어렵다는 단점이 있고, 상향식 방법은 지역적 특성은 고려하기 쉽지만, 전체적인 흐름을 파악하기 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 두 가지 방법을 혼합한 방법을 사용하여 지역적으로는 불규칙적인 암의 성장 모습과 암이 다른 조직으로 전이되는 모습을 동시에 관찰 할 수 있게 하였다. 아울러 시뮬레이션된 암의 모형이 실제 임상학적인 모습과 유사하다는 것을 발견하였다.

  • This paper discusses the interacting mobile robots for tele-operation system using the world wide web. In multi-agent and web-based teleoperation environment the problem of communication delay must be solved for the efficient and robust control of the system. The standard graphic user interface(GUI)is implemented using Java Programing language. The web browser is used to integrate the virtual environment and the standard GUI(Java applet) in a single user interface. Users can access a dedicated WWWserver and download the user interface. Reinforcement learning is applied to indirect control in order to autonomously operate without the need of human intervention. Java application has been developed to communicate and control multi robots using WWW. The effectiveness of our multi robots system is verified by simulation and experiments ...

  • As web-based online communities are rapidly growing, the agents in the communities need to know their measurable belief of trust for safe and successful interactions. In this paper, we propose a computational model of trust resulting from available feedbacks in online communities. The notion of trust can be defined as an aggregation of consensus given a set of past interactions. The average trust of an agent further represents the center of gravity of the distribution of its trustworthiness and untrustworthiness. Furthermore, we precisely describe the relationships among reputation, trust and average trust through concrete examples showing their computations. We apply our trust model to online social networks in order to show how trust mechanisms are involved in the rational purchasing decision-making of buyers and sellers, and we summarize our simulation results.
