An intelligent speed control system for marine diesel engines is presented. The approach adopt¬ed is to use a conventional PID controller for normal operation and a feedforward controller for adaptive control. The feedforward controller is a neural network. The neural network is the inverse dynamics model of the plant, which is being trained on line. The parametric model of the diesel engine is represented in a linear second-order system, with a first-order combustion part and a revolution part each at a normal operating point. The time delay in the control of the com¬bustion part is approximated to the first-order system. The tuned PID parameters are set based on the model for normal operating point. To obtain the inverse dynamics of the diesel engine system, two neural networks are used, one for inverse, the other for forward dynamics. The former is posi¬tioned across the plant to learn its inverse dynamics during operation, and the latter is placed in series with the controlled plant. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed scheme to intelligent adaptive control of diesel engines.

In this paper, we study a linear system of homogeneous commensurate /incommensurate fractional-order differential equations by developing a new semi-analytical scheme. In particular, by decoupling the system into two fractional-order differential equations, so that the first equation of order (δ + γ), while the second equation depends on the solution for the first equation, we have solved the under consideration system, where 0 < δ, γ ≤ 1. With the help of using the Adomian decomposition method (ADM), we obtain the general solution. The efficiency of this method is verified by solving several numerical examples.

A study of argon droplet vaporization is conducted using molecular dynamics. Instead of using traditional method such as the Navier-Stokes equation. Molecular dynamics uses Lagrangian frame to describe molecular behavior in a system and uses only momentum and position data of all molecules in the system. So every property is not a hypothetical input but a statistical result calculated from the momentum and position data. This work performed a simulation of the first-order stability for phase transition of a three dementional submicron argon droplet within quiescent environment. Lennard-Jones 12-6 potential function is used as a intermolecular potential function. The molecular configuration is examined while an initially non-sperical droplet is changed into the spherical shape and droplet evaporates or condensates.

The purpose of this study is to find what causes make public projects hold off, going beyond the planned deadline and budget. Using System Dynamics(SD) and their derivative Urban Dynamics(UD) models, it intends to analyze major feedback loops based on VENSIM and to simulate them with STELLA software, all of which are interrelated with various causes of project delay. To prevent or ameliorate project delay, first of all it advises to focus on endogenous delaying factors not exogenous ones. These factors either reinforce or balance certain loops in complex causal structure, In the case example on the Cremation Building Project in Cheongju, Residents’ participation demand make negotiation put off and delayed negotiation reinforces administrative-expediency planning in order to observe a time limit, on the other hand, once building consensus, it increase both the level of planning performance and public trust. In the meantime, the real planning process used to neglect residents opinions and manage public grievance only through compensation, he a result of simulation, visible fruit of negotiation in the initial phase seems to be not satisfactory owing to funds and time consumed, but after reaching an mutual agreement among stakeholders, planning performance is effective and strategic than administrative-expediency planning viewed in both financial and time angle. It proposes to devise specific tools schematizing project implementation. In order to upgrade the quality of project management, it recommends for planners to adopt key concepts based on SD/UD diagrams and causal loops, which would contribute to enriching Planning abbots.

This study explores the partnership between government and human service nonprofits in the United States from the perspective of resource dependence theory and extends the theory with system dynamics in order to better explain government-nonprofit service delivery. The article is structured as follows. First, I introduce the historical development of the government-nonprofit partnership in service delivery in the United States. Second, I present an overview of resource dependence theory for government-nonprofit service delivery, including assumptions, key elements, claims, how well it explains the government-nonprofit service delivery, and limitations. Third, I highlight the advantages of system dynamics along with the limitations of resource dependence theory, as an attempt to revise the theory. Finally, I conclude with a summary and suggestions for the next steps in theoretical development and research.

A conceptual system dynamics model is developed to represent the dynamic mechanism between the number of hepatitis B virus and the defense system of the body. The simulation results shows that the model behaves within the reasonable ranges. The developed conceptual model is a first attempt to quantify the dynamic mechanisms of the hepatitis B virus, where only feedback structures are considered without bio-organism data. The next step would be to incorporate the model with bio-organism theory and to carry out case studies to identify personal characteristics. Since the current model is a conceptual model where quantitative results are not based on the sound background, the usage is limited only within the qualitative basis. It could be a effective educational tool for the patients. It also shows what-to-do lists in order to be used for forecast purposes.

The purpose of this study to analyze the effect of Mindfulness on the Therapeutic Relationship using System Dynamics. The biggest factor in psychotherapy's treatment outcome is the Therapeutic Relationship including the quality of the therapist (empathy, therapeutic presence) and therapy alliance. Mindfulness practice can facilitate the therapeutic relationship. In order to analyze the therapeutic relationship, I measure FFMQ(Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire), Empathy, Therapeutic presence and Therapy alliance. Participants consist of 55 mental health professionals (doctor, psychologist, psychiatrist, counselor, social worker). The result of the study will be explained. First, with the causal loop diagram research, I analyze how mindfulness can influence the quality of therapist and therapy alliance. The result of literature research indicate that mindfulness increase therapist's empathy, congruence, therapeutic presence, flow, therapy alliance. And then mindfulness reinforces the ability of therapeutic relationship. Secondly, through the real data research and simulation analysis, mindfulness practicing period (year and hour a day) of therapist is studied. The result of the therapist experiencing mindfulness practice period is over 5 years and the daily hours of practice is 2 - 2.5 hours in order to enhance the therapeutic relationship. After reviewing the result of the research it is important to understand the practicing period and daily practice of mindfulness. With daily practice and time, the level of mindfulness will increase and influence positively the therapeutic relationship between therapist and client.

The purpose of this study is to analyze Foreign Exchange(FX) exposure and FX hedge strategy based on the systems thinking perspective using causal loop diagrams. FX exposure has been a critical issue on a business management. Many studies in Korea have researches on variables which make effects to the company value. This study displays causal loop diagrams(CLDs) on these issues. In order to make CLD more objective, most causalities are articulated from recent 72 studies (1998~2013) of domestic top journals. This approach is valuable in that it is the first try to draw all the causalities from various literature review regarding FX exposure and FX hedge strategy. This study is expected to make a useful and basic material to research the financial issues of corporate, as the first research to dynamically understand FX exposure and FX hedge strategy.

In this paper, a simplified model of a hydraulic actuator system for a low-band type active suspension system is derived. To reduce the order of model, time constants of each chamber in hydraulic system are neglected except that of an accumulator. And the dynamics of a spool in the pressure control valve is regarded as a first-order system. The step response and the frequency response of the simplified second-order simulation model exhibit a good agreement with those of the actual system as well as those of the tenth-order simulation model. It is possible to simplify the tenth-order model to the second-order one. The low-band type active suspension model is built up by combining of a quarter car model test rig to testify the validity of the simplified model. The experimental results of suspension characteristics show that the simplified second-order hydraulic actuator model is reasonable to describe the dynamics of the actual hydraulic actuator system for a low-band type active suspension system.
