Implementation of AGVS (Automated Guided Vehicle System) in CIMS (Computer Integrated Manufacturing System) generally requires substantial study to optimize design and performance of the guide path. Traditional mathematical approaches have been used with limited success to analyze AGVS. These approaches, however, do not provide a practical opportunity to use by path designers. This paper presents a new approach based on Jules in designing and assessing AGV path to have better design of the closed-loop layout. A framework for the approach is proposed and a case study is reported to demonstrate the framework. Deletion of seldom used paths and addition of bypasses to solve the congestion problem are conducted automatically through simulation expefiments. To visualize die results a graphic control program is developed and integrated with AutoMod/AutoGram simulation package.

A variational approach with reference volume and adjoint structure concepts is applied for the structural design densitivity analysis of geometrically nonlinear structures. A general form of sensitivity equation is used and then nonlinear finite element procedure is implemented for the discretized structural model. Usability and effectiveness of the variational approach for the design sensitivity analysis of geometrically nonlinear structural responses are verified through a numerical example.

We address the problem of designing a physical CATV network with switched-star topology in which the broadband interactive service is provided. There are two types of decision variables: One is where to place conduit paths, and the other is how many cable units to be installed on each link traversed by an established conduit path. Due to the serious drawback of the conventional approach partitioning the problem into two subproblems, the unified approach handled in one setting is used here to attack the whole problem without dividing into two ones. In this paper, we present a mathematical design model and propose an efficient solution method exploiting the nice structure of it. In addition to this physical design, some results on logical network configuration have also been made. Finally, computaional experiments are conducted to illustrate the efficiency of our design approach.

A cell design model based on operation sequence is proposed for maximizing the total parts flow within cells considering the data of Process plans for parts, Production volume, and cell size. A relationship between machines is calculated on the basis of the process plans for parts obtained from process plan sheets. Then the machines are classified into machine cells using the relationship. The model is formulated as a 0-1 integer programming and a genetic algorithm approach is developed to solve the model. The developed approach is tested and Proved using actual industrial data. Experimental results indicate that the approach is appropriate for large-size cell design problems efficiently.

A finite-element based approach to socket shape design of a concave piston assembly for a high pressure hydraulic pump of an excavator is presented in this paper. The approach is applied to developing a concave piston assembly which fulfills its strength requirement and it is verified that the predictions are in good agreement with the experiments.

This paper presents design of interleave configured dc-dc converter for high power distributed power system applications. The multi channel interleaving buck converter with small inductance has proved to be suitable for micro-grid, requiring medium output voltages, high output currents and fast transient response. Integrated magnetic components are used to reduce the size of the converter and improve efficiency. Unlike conventional methods, the distributed approach requires no centralized control, automatically accommodates varying numbers of converter cells, and is highly tolerant of subsystem failures. A general methodology for achieving distributed interleaving is proposed, along with a specific implementation approach. The design and simulation verification of switching frequency 10 kHz system is presented with interleaved clocking of the converter cells. The simulation (simulated by PSIM 6.1) results corroborate the analytical predictions and demonstrate the tremendous benefits of the distributed interleaving approach.

In this paper, a general approach to structural analysis of forging die sets is presented and the related design system, AFDEX/DIE, is introduced. Structural analysis of die sets is conducted by the finite element method considering both contact problem and shrink fit. In the approach, amount of shrink fit is controlled by thermal load, i.e., temperature difference between die insert and shrink rings. The loading conditions are extracted automatically from the simulation results obtained by a rigie-thermoviscoplatic finite element method. Typical application examples are given, which show the applicability of the approach and the related program.

The purpose of this study is to construct the database and to analyze the space and to suggest the possibility of application for architectural planning and design through the approach analysis for educational facilities with the use of the GIS. The properties of the space is to be expressed by optimized path from the analysis of the user and the traffic situation. Analyzed with other site analysis factors(situation, view, noise, configuration of the earth, etc.), the total site analysis is to be made and it is also to be a decision making support system.

An adaptive formation control approach is proposed for nonhonolomic multiple mobile robots considering unknown slipping and skidding. It is assumed that unknown slipping and skidding effects are bounded by unknown constants. Under this assumption, the adaptive technique is employed to estimate the bounds of unknown slipping and skidding effects of each mobile robot. To deal with the skidding effect included in kinematics, the dynamic surface design approach is applied to design a local controller for each mobile robot. Using Lyapunov stability theorem, the adaptation laws for tuning bounds of slipping and skidding are induced and it is proved that all signals of the closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking errors and the synchronization errors of the path parameters converge to an adjustable neighborhood of the origin. Finally, simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Progressive mesh representation and generation have become one of the most important issues in network-based computer graphics. However, current researches are mostly focused on triangular mesh models. On the other hand, solid models are widely used in industry and are applied to advanced applications such as product design and virtual assembly. Moreover, as the demand to share and transmit these solid models over the network is emerging, the generation and the transmission of progressive solid models depending on specific engineering needs and purpose are essential. In this paper, we present a Cellular Topology-based approach to generating and transmitting progressive solid models from a feature-based solid model for internet-based design and collaboration. The proposed approach introduces a new scheme for storing and transmitting solid models over the network. The Cellular Topology (CT) approach makes it possible to effectively generate progressive solid models and to efficiently transmit the models over the network with compact model size.
