A robust minimum-time control (RMTC) strategy is addressed and it is extended to the dual-stage servo design. Rather than conventional switching type sub-optimal controls, it is a reference following control approach where the predetermined minimum-time trajectory (MTT) is tracked by the perturbation compensator based feedback controller. First, the minimum-time trajectory for a mass-damper system is derived. Then, the perturbation compensator to achieve robust tracking performance in spite of model uncertainty and external disturbance is suggested. The RMTC is also applied to the dual-stage positioner which consists of coarse actuator and fine one. To best utilize the actuation redundancy of the dual-stage mechanism, a null-motion controller to actively regulate the relative motion between the two stages is formulated. The performance of RMTC is validated through simulation and experiment.

The closed circuit pump is applied to control rotating speed and direction of hydraulic motor in hydrostatic transmission. To development of this pump, first of all the servo control regulator has to be designed. Mechanical-hydraulic type servo control mechanism is excellent to be compared with electronic-hydraulic type servo control valve to reliability and economy. In this paper to development positive and negative variable displacement type servo regulator, the hydro-mechanical servo control mechanism is calculated and designed with force balance of pilot piston and position feedback of servo piston.

This paper presents control and evaluation of a new haptic device with a 6-DOF parallel mechanism for interfacing with virtual reality. This haptic device has low inertial, high bandwidth compactness, and high output force capability mainly due to of base-fixed motors. It has also wider orientation workspace mainly due to a RRR type spherical joint. A control method is presented with gravity compensation and with force feedback by an F/T sensor to compensate for the effects of unmodeled dynamics such as friction and inertia. Also, dynamic performance has been evaluated by experiments. for force characteristics such as maximum applicable force, static-friction force, minimum controllable force, and force bandwidth Virtual wall simulation with the developed haptic device has been demonstrated.

In this study, the new prosthetic hand which can perform sensory feedback is developed. Although the continuous development of current prosthetic hands, they have some drawbacks. The drawbacks are the low grasping capabilities, the lack of sensory information given to the user, and so on. Despite the improvement of the function of fingers, the sensory information problem still remains undeveloped. By using differential gear and underactuated mechanical design, it can be solved with the minimum additional weight. And it will be applied to all of the prosthetic hands.

가상현실 분야에서는 사용자 경험의 몰입도를 극대화하기 위해 햅틱 피드백을 활용하고 발전시키려는 지속적인 노력이 있었다. 그러나 대부분의 햅틱 피드백은 진동 모터 등 경제성을 고려한 액추에이터를 사용하는 문제로 인해 제한적인 촉각 경험만을 사용자에게 제공할 수 있었다. 복싱과 같은 스포츠 시뮬레이션이나 게임에서의 타격 경험의 경우, 실제 물체를 타격하는 감각과 진동 액추에이터로 렌더링되는 감각 사이의 괴리 때문에 한계가 분명하다. 본 연구에서는 이를 주목하여, 사용자가 손으로 가상의 물체를 타격할 때 가상 임팩트를 생성할 수 있는 햅틱 임팩트 시스템을 제안했다. 햅틱 인터페이스는 퀵 리턴 메커니즘을 사용하여 엔드이펙터가 사용자의 주먹에 햅틱 임팩트 피드백을 직접 전달하고 진동 촉감을 통해서 사용자의 손바닥에 가상 임팩트 감각을 전달할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안된 시스템은 인간 대상 실험을 통해 평가하였으며 실험 결과는 햅틱 임팩트 가상 임팩트의 인지 강도와 사실감에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 것을 나타낸다.

Forward Error Correction (FEC) techniques have been adopted to overcome packet losses and to improve the quality of video delivery. The efficiency of the FEC has been significantly compromised, however, due to the characteristics of the wireless channel such as burst packet loss, channel fluctuation and lack of Quality of Service (QoS) support. We propose herein an Adaptive Cross-layer FEC mechanism (ACFEC) to enhance the quality of video streaming over 802.11 WLANs. Under the conventional approaches, FEC functions are implemented on the application layer, and required feedback information to calculate redundancy rates. Our proposed ACFEC mechanism, however, leverages the functionalities of different network layers. The Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) function on the Media Access Control (MAC) layer can detect packet losses. Through cooperation with the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), the redundancy rates are adaptively controlled based on the packet loss information. The experiment results demonstrate that the ACFEC mechanism is able to adaptively adjust and control the redundancy rates and, thereby, to overcome both of temporary and persistent channel fluctuations. Consequently, the proposed mechanism, under various network conditions, performs better in recovery than the conventional methods, while generating a much less volume of redundant traffic.

VoIP, 영상회의, DMB, IPTV 등과 같은 멀티미디어 서비스의 활용이 급증하여 네트워크 트래픽이 증가되므로 흐름제어에 관한 실시간 트래픽 메커니즘이 요구되고 있다. 이에 따라 실시간 멀티미디어 데이터를 전송하기 위해 주기적으로 피드백되는 RTP/RTCP 패킷을 통해 수신측의 패킷 손실률과 패킷 지연시간으로 측정되는 네트워크 상태정보를 이용하여 전송률을 조절할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 멀티캐스트에 효율적인 흐름제어와 RTCP를 기반으로 피드백 전송지연의 오차율을 줄이고, 네트워크의 실시간 트래픽에 대한 동적 변화에 적응할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 본 연구의 시뮬레이션 결과, 네트워크 상태에 적응적으로 전송률을 조절하며 대역폭의 최대 활용과 패킷 손실의 최소화를 이룰 수 있다.

The emotional information processing is to simulate and recognize human sensibility, sensuality or emotion, to realize natural and harmonious human-machine interface. This paper proposes an emotion-based image retrieval method. In this method, user can choose a linguistic query among some emotional adjectives. Then the system shows some corresponding representative images that are pre-evaluated by experts. Again the user can select a representative one among the representative images to initiate traditional content-based image retrieval (CBIR). By this proposed method any CBIR can be easily expanded as emotion-based image retrieval. In CBIR of our system, we use several color and texture visual descriptors recommended by MPEG-7. We also propose a fuzzy similarity measure based on Choquet integral in the CBIR system. For the communication between system and user, a relevance feedback mechanism is used to represent human subjectivity in image retrieval. This can improve the performance of image retrieval, and also satisfy the user's individual preference.

As the biodegradation of wood constituents has been understood as a multi-basidiomycetes and enzymatic processes, this review will focus on the roles of low molecular compounds and radicals working in harmony with fungal enzymes. Wood rotting basidiomycete fungi penetrate wood, and lead to more easily metabolize carbohydrates of the wood complex. The white-rot fungi, having versatile enzymes, are able to attack directly the "lignin barrier". They also use a multi-enzyme system including so-called "feedback" type enzymes allowing for simultaneous degradation of lignin and carbohydrates. The multi-enzymes including laccase support the proposed route by explaining how the high molecular weight enzymes can function in the wood complex. These enzymes may function separately or cooperate each other. In addition, veratryl alcohol oxidase, cellobiose dehydrogenase, arylalcohol dehydrogenase, and particularly low molecular mediators and radicals have an important role in wood biodegradation. However, the possibility of other mechanism as well as other enzymes, as operating as feedback systems in the process of wood degradation, could not be excluded.

Using qualitative methods hinged on urban dynamics models, the paper addresses major issues concerned with new administrative capital construction. It tries to summarize the existing debates on new administrative capital construction and reinterpret diverse interacting factors in terms of reinforcing or balancing feedback structure. The paper suggests that understanding up on the dynamic mechanism imbedded in circular causal loop diagrams is the key to set up appropriate proposals and action plans for the new administrative capital, as they would reveal complicated linkages between the Capital Region and the rest, in addition to the urban dynamic of new administrative capital. In the same context, the paper can confirm similar features reflected in the relocation of capital functions at Canberra, Australia and Berlin, Germany. It has paid special attention to the fact that both Australian and German governments altogether stress the positive feedback loops as they have overcome unprecedented political confrontation among rival cities: Basically, they have encouraged gives-and-takes among major stake-holders. These research findings indicate that the future of new administrative capital construction depends on consensus buildings that can accommodate socio-economic and territorial changes between pros and cons. Although further researches and validations are needed, the system approach presented in this paper could assist Korean decision-makers in developing robust and responsive policy initiatives under uncertainties.
