A lot of recent researches have shown that a Pseudo Random Binary Signal is a quite effective test signal to measure the impulse response of a plant. Generally speaking, however, such a response itself is not satisfactory to determine the appropriate control parameters or control inputs. Here, the author intends to estimate the unknown parameters of the First Order Plant with Dead Time by means of correlation method using M-sequence signal. The time constant T and the dead time L of the plant are eatimated with one tracking loop by automatically adjusting delay time .tau. of M-sequence signal according to variations of T and L. In this paper, a three level M-sequence signal is used as a test signal in order to avoid troublesome operations to calculate partial derivatives of a given performance index with respect to the parameters which are usually required in the Model Method. Several experiments with analogue computer using low pass filters as averaging circuits showed good results as expected.

In this paper a different formulation for the response of structural systems controlled by Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD) devices is developed, based on the mathematical tool of fractional calculus. Although the increasing use of these devices for structural vibration control, it has been demonstrated that existing model may lead to inaccurate prediction of liquid motion, thus reflecting in a possible imprecise description of the structural response. For this reason the recently proposed fractional formulation introduced to model liquid displacements in TLCD devices, is here extended to deal with TLCD controlled structures under base excitations. As demonstrated through an extensive experimental analysis, the proposed model can accurately capture structural responses both in time and in frequency domain. Further, the proposed fractional formulation is linear, hence making identification of the involved parameters extremely easier.

Near Infrared transmittance Spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to evaluate and quantify the pharmaceutical active compounds. In the paper, taurine (2-Aminoethanesulfonic acid) was quantitatively analyzed in commercial pharmaceutical preparations. For calibration a central composite factorial design was used to determine concentrations of ingredients in reference samples. For the quantitative analysis of taurine, the most suitable data analysis method includes the calculation of second derivatives and a partial least squares regression (PLSR) model. By NIR spectrometry, combined with PLSR, the taurine concentration was successfully predicted with a relative standard error of prediction (SEP) lower than 1.04%.

In this paper, a design method of a robust adaptive regulator with feedfoward path based on the explicit criterion minimization is proposed. The convergence speed of parameter estimation is improved by using the stochastic Newton minimization method in the criterion minimization algorithm, and sensitivity derivatives are used in the regulator calculation for improving the robustness of the control system. Trh proposed adaptive regulator is applied to the stable minimum-phase and nonminimum-phase system, the results are shown that control performance and disturbance compensation ability of the regulator are improved. And the choosing method of input penalty is proposed.

In this paper, an observer-based adaptive controller is proposed to control the longitudinal motion of vehicles. The standard gradient method is used to estimate the vehicle parameters, mass, time constant, etc. The inter-vehicle spacing and its derivatives are estimated by using the sliding mode cascade observer introduced in this paper. It is shown that the proposed adaptive controller is uniformly ultimately bounded. It is also shown that the errors of the relative distance, the relative velocity and the relative acceleration asymptotically converge to zero. The simulation results are presented to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents an enhanced ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ tracking filter whose ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ gains are updated by an approximation method at every scan to account for the transition of measurement dependent observation error variance in two-dimensional Cartesian coordinates. The approximate ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ gains are calculated from the amount of the change in the tracking index and the partial derivatives of the ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ gains with respect to a nominal tracking index. It is shown via simulation that the proposed tracker provides improved performance compared to the conventional ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ tracking filter.

The author studied the effects of anticancer Endoxan to the rat's teeth. Two hundred pregnant rats were used. The experimental rats were given an intramuscular injection of Endoxan as nitrogen mustard derivatives 10mg. per 40gm of body weight. In order to investigate effects of Endoxan to the teeth of rats the control and experimental rats group wee sacrificed on 1,3,5,7 and 14days, and made preparation for histopathologic findings. The rusults were as follows: 1. In several days (about 5days) after injection of Endoxan, tooth germs of cap stage, bell stage, and dental lamina were irregular arranged form as compared with in the control group teeth. 2. Irregular arranged cell were recovered from 14days after injection of Endoxan.

In this paper, a class of neural-network controllers with two inputs of error and error change, is applied to the position control of D.C. servo system. The proposed controller is learned by error back-propagating error information to compensate the weighting value using its previous derivatives and to decrease exponentially a series of self learning coefficients. Through the simulations and implementations, the effectiveness and superiority to the conventional fuzzy controller is proved.

The tight junction, one of Intercellular junctions, performs a variety of biological functions by bonding adjacent cells, including the barrier function to control the movement of the electrolyte and water. Recent studies have revealed that unusual expression of tight junction-related genes have been shown to be related in cancer development and progression. Recently, there are many reports that control of tight junction proteins expression is closely related to the skin moisture. In this study, we are focusing on the regulating mechanism of tight junction-associated genes by the steviol and its derivatives. Steviol, used as a sweetner, is known to chemical compound isolated from stevia plant. The MTS (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium, inner salt) assay was carried out in HaCaT cells (human keratinocyte cell line) in order to determine the cytotoxicity. As a result, while steviol showing cytotoxicity from $250{\mu}M$, steviol derivatives are not cytotoxic more than $250{\mu}M$ concentration. We have observed a change in the tight junction protein via quantitative real-time PCR. Claudin 8 among tight junction proteins is only significantly reduced up to 30% in the presence of steviol. In addition, cell migration was inhibited by steviol, not by stevioside and rebaudioside. Finally, we could observe that steviol, not stevioside and rebaudioside, is able to increase the skin barrier permeability through the transepithelial electric resistance (TEER) measurements. These results suggest that the steviol and its derivatives are specifically acts on the tight junction related gene expression, but steviol derivatives are more suitable as a cosmetic material.

The results of control law design for a tilt-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle that has a nacelle mounted wing extension (WE) are presented in this paper. It consists of a control surface mixer, stability and control augmentation system (SCAS), hold mode for altitude / speed / heading, and a guidance mode for preprogram and point navigation which includes automatic take-off and landing. The conversion corridor and the control moments derivatives between the original tilt-rotor and its variant of the nacelle mounted WE were compared to show the effectiveness of the WE. The nacelle conversion of the original tilt-rotor starts when the airspeed is greater than 30 km/h but its WE variant starts at 0 km/h in order to reduce the drag caused by the high incidence angle of the WE. The stability margins of the inner loop are presented with the optimization approach. The outer loops for the hold mode are designed with trial and error methods with linear and nonlinear simulation. The main control parameter for altitude control of the helicopter mode is thrust command and it is transferred to the pitch attitude command in airplane mode. Otherwise, the control parameter for the speed of the helicopter mode is the pitch attitude command and it is transferred to the thrust command in airplane mode. Therefore the speed and altitude hold mode are coupled to each other and are engaged at the same time when an internal pilot engages any of the altitude or speed hold modes. The nonlinear simulation results of the guidance control for the preprogrammed mode and point navigation are also presented including automatic take-off and landing in order to prove the full control law.
