  • The paper introduces dynamic generation technique of foot trajectories using CPG(Central Pattern Generator). In this approach, the generated foot trajectories can be changeable according to variable outputs of CPG in various environments, because they are given as mapping functions of the output signals of the CPG oscillators. It enables to provide an adaptable foot trajectory for environmental change. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, experiments on humanoid robot Nao is executed in the Webot simulation. The performance and motion features of CPG based approach is analyzed.

  • A mutant (HSMl) of Cryphonectria parasitica created during transformation reproduced the hypovirulent symptoms in virus-free wild type. Its phenomena have been proved with morphological marker such as reduced sporulation, pigmentation, and laccase production. In addition to the changes in phenotypic characteristics, down-regulations of Lac1, Crp1, Vir1 and Vir2 were also observed. The integration of transforming vector was confirmed and located within genome by marker rescuing. Vector integration occurred between two genes, Cpg2 and Cpg3, which resulted in the disruption of neither Cpg2 nor Cpg3. Both Cpg2 and Cpg3 genes, sized at 1.8 kb and 1.9 kb respectively, were rarely transcribed genes in Cryphonectria parasitica. Cpg2 expression was significantly overexpressed from 4 to 5 day old culture of both UEP1 and HSM1 while no differences were observed in Cpg3 expression. It appears that an aberration from the normal expression of Cpg2, not Cpg3, results in the hypovirulent symptoms in virus-free wild type.

  • The paper introduces dynamic generation technique of foot trajectories for humanoid robots using CPG(Central Pattern Generator) and proposes adaptive walking method for slope terrains combining a feedback network. The proposed CPG based technique generates the trajectory of foot in the Cartesian coordinates system and it can change the step length adaptively according to the feedback information. To cope with variable slope terrains, the sensory feedback network in the CPG are designed using the geometry relationship between foot position and body center position such that humanoid robot can maintain its stability. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, the experiments on humanoid robot Nao are executed in the Webot simulation. The performance and motion features of the CPG based approach are compared and analyzed focusing on the adaptability in slope terrains.

  • The main objective of this paper is to control a trajectory tracking of the fish-mimetic robot by CPG (Central Pattern Generator), which is biological approach. CPG is biological neural networks that generate rhythmic movements for locomotion of animals, such as walking, running, swimming and flying. Animals show marvelous ability of autonomous dynamic adaptation for an unsteady fluid dynamic environment or various environments. So, we propose the 3-DOF CPG controller to track the trajectory of the fish robot in plane motion. The conformity of the proposed control algorithm is validated by simulation for a fish robot model, which is made by a commercial dynamic package.

  • A combined CPG (Central Pattern Generator) based foot trajectory and GA (Genetic Algorithm) based joint compensation method is presented for adaptive humanoid walking. In order to increase an adaptability of humanoid walking for rough terrains, the experiment for rolling terrains are introduced. The CPG based foot trajectory method has been successfully applied to basic slops and variable slops, but has a limitation for the rolling terrains. The experiments are conducted in an ODE based Webots simulation environment using humanoid robot Nao to verify a stability of walking for various rolling terrains. The proposed method is compared to the previous CPG foot trajectory technique and shows better performance especially for the cascade rolling terrains.

  • In this study, constant power generation (CPG) algorithms are introduced for whole range power point tracking in photovoltaic systems. Currently, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is widely used for high-power photovoltaic systems. However, MPPT algorithm cannot flexibly control such systems according to changing grid conditions. Maintaining grid stability has become important as the capacity of grid-connected photovoltaic systems is increased. CPG algorithms are required to generate the desired power depending on grid conditions. A grid-connected photovoltaic system is configured, and CPG algorithms are implemented. The performances of the implemented algorithms are compared and analyzed by experimental results.

  • The extracellular invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) (Candida utilis) preparation was obtained from the liquid medium after desalting and freeze drying. This prepared enzyme was used for the comparative purification on 4 activated matrices by liquid column affinity chromatography method. In this method there were used controlled porous glass (CPG) silanized covalently activated by keratin, silanized silica gel and silica gel covalently covered by keratin. It was found that the invertase purification process was better using both CPG matrices (silanized CPG and keratin activated CPG) than these with two silica gel supports. Also the elution coefficient of the invertase from the two CPG columns was about 93 to 94%. Two silica gel supports found to be superior in terms of purification efficiency. The invertase purification process was confirmed by PAGE electrophoresis.

  • This paper presents a Combined solar-wave Power Generation (CPG) concept that the CPG unit is maintained as buoyant at the level of sea water and it is also supported by a submerged tunnel, with the aim of supplying emergency electric power during the station blackout events of nuclear power plants. The CPG concept has been motivated from the 2011 Fukushima-Daiichi Accidents due to the loss of both offsite AC power and emergency diesel power caused by natural hazards such as earthquake and tsunami. The CPG is conceptualized by applying different types and different sites for emergency power generation, in order to reduce common cause failures of emergency power suppliers due to natural hazards. Thus, the CPG can provide a new mean for supplying emergency electric power during station blackout events of nuclear power plants. For this application, the CPG requirements are described with a typical configuration at the ocean side of a submerged tunnel.
