Multiple slab waveguides are analyzed by using the transfer matrix method and by introducing a virtual leaky layer. It is shown that the analysis is conceptually equivalent to the prism coupling phenomenon. The Lorentzian function is made use of toobtain the eigenvalues of multiple waveguides. Computer simulations are performed onsingle layered, double layered wavegurdes. The calculation results are confirmed to agree well with those of the finite difference method.

This paper provides a guideline for specifying the operational compliance characteristics considering the location of compliance center and the grasp points in assembly tasks using robot hands, To be specific, some of coupling stiffness elements cannot be planned arbitrary. Through T-type assembly task, we analyze the conditions of the achievable operational stiffness matrix with respect to the location of compliance center and the grasp points. It is concluded that the location of compliance center on the grasped object and the grasp points play important roles for successful assembly tasks and also the operational stiffness matrix should be carefully specified by considering those conditions.

In this paper, the decoupling $H_{\infty}$ controller which minimizes maximum energy in the output signal is designed to reduce the coupling properties between input/output variables which make it difficult to efficiently control a system. And for a given decoupling $H_{\infty}$ problem, an efficient method is sought to find the controller coefficients through Linear Matrix Inequalities(LMI) by which the problem is formulated into a convex optimal problem.

Coupling of tetracycline(Tc) to dithiocarbamate chitosan(DTCC) via chelate bond was investigated varying reaction time, concentration, temperature, pH, and Ca(II)/Tc ratio. The amount of Tc bound to matrix increased to give a maximum and decreased as the reaction proceeded. The degree and rate of dissociation of Tc complex were affected by the reaction temperature, and pH. By running the reaction at low temperature and pH, the degree of dissociation was greatly diminished. Properties of drug-release from DTCC-Ca(II)-Tc complex were studied by batch- and flow-method and release of Tc and CA(II) by flow method followed nearly zero-order. DTCC-Ca(II)-Tc showed very prolonged antimicrobial activity compared to that of free Tc.

It is shown that a simple vector analysis method can provide beam cone shapes for laser bemas non-paraxially input to dielectric boundaries with inclination. Acceptance coen shapes for angled-endface fibers are calculated by the method. Beam cone shapes inside InP substrates are also calculated by the method for the coupling of an optical fiber and an InP-based photodiode using a Si v-groove. The effectiveness and errors of the recently suggested matrix method for inclined boundaries are also studied.

A new method for the vibration analysis of arbitrarily-shaped beams is proposed on the assumption of imaginary seperation of the beams into prismatic beams and the remaining portions. The stiffness and mass of the beams are devided into two portions according to the seperation. Applying the mode shapes of prismatic beams and Lagrange's equations give new characteristics equation. This equation has a low dimension of matrix with the coupling terms showing the effect of remaining portions on the vibration of arbitrarily-shaped beams

A fault current in Simultaneous faults is calulated, which satisfies the reliability for expansion of power scale. New algorithm for analyzing fault current is developed, which calculates exactly thevnin equivalent impedance from fault point by cecomposing increment bus admittance matrix ( Ybus), and fault current is calculated by applying multiport theory. The signeficant results are as follows ` 1) When system fault changes system configulation, equivalent impedance can be calculated simply with this new algorithm. 2) Mutual coupling of transmission line can be calculated efficiently. 3) Simultaneous fault current is analyzed by applying multiport theory, which can be applicable to large scale systems.

The new field of learning control develops controllers that learn to improve their performance at executing a given task, based on experience performing this task. The simplest forms of learning control are based on the same concept as integral control, but operating in the domain of the repetitions of the task. In the previous paper, I had studied the use of such controllers in a decentralized system, such as a robot with the controller for each link acting independently. The basic result of the paper is to show that stability of the learning controllers for all subsystems when the coupling between subsystems is turned off, assures stability of the decentralized learning in the coupled system, provided that the sample time in the digital learning controller is sufficiently short. In this paper, we present two examples. The first illustrates the effect of coupling between subsystems in the system dynamics, and the second studies the application of decentralized learning control to robot problems. The latter example illustrates the application of decentralized learning control to nonlinear systems, and also studies the effect of the coupling between subsystems introduced in the input matrix by the discretization of the system equations. The conclusion is that for sufficiently small learning gain, and sufficiently small sample time, the simple learning control law based on integral control applied to each robot axis will produce zero tracking error in spite o the dynamic coupling in the robot equations. Of course, the results of this paper have much more general application than just to the robotics tracking problem. Convergence in decentralized systems is seen to depend only on the input and output matrices, provided the sample time is suffiently small.

In this paper, the reduced size of broad bandpass filter with parallel coupled line structure is presented. This proposed filter can control bandwidth of narrow to broadband by adjusting the coupling coefficient. The conventional filter is operated with a narrow band. If a higher bandwidth is desired than the conventional narrow bandwidth, it is hard to realize due to the coupling coefficient between feeding line and resonator. In this paper, to overcome this limitation, a proposed bandpass filter is designed with reduced size due to SIR (Stepped Impedance Resonator), U-shaped open stub with hair-pin and vertical-type structure than conventional one, and it has characteristics of adjusting bandwidth freely as per quantity of coupling coefficient. The proposed bandpass filter that, experimental results of insertion and return losses are 0.42 dB and 24.5 dB with bandwidth of 60 % at the center frequency of 5.8 GHz, respectively.

In this study, the influence of silane coupling agents, featuring different organo-functional groups on the interlaminar and thermal properties of woven glass fabric-reinforced nylon 6 composites, has been by means of short-beam shear tests, dynamic mechanical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The results indicate that the fiber-matrix interfacial characteristics obtained using the different analytical methods agree well with each other. The interlaminar shear strengths (ILSS) of glass fabric/nylon 6 composites sized with various silane coupling agents are significantly improved in comparison with that of the composite sized commercially. ILSS of the composites increases in the order: Z-6076 with chloropropyl groups in the silanes > Z-6030 with methacrylate groups> Z-6020 with diamine groups; this trend is similar to that of results found in an earlier study of interfacial shear strength. The dynamic mechanical properties, the fracture surface observations, and the thermal stability also support the interfacial results. The improvement of the interfacial properties may be ascribed to the different chemical reactivities of the reactive amino end groups of nylon 6 and the organo-functional groups located at the ends of the silane chains, which results from the increased chemical reactivity in order chloropropyl > methacrylate > diamine.
