This paper deals with six degree-of-freedom HILS(hardware-in-the-loop-simulation) of KSR-III rocket using a TAFMS(three axis flight motion simulator). This TAFMS HILS test is accomplished before main HILS tests in order to verify the control stability in the presence of TAFMS dynamic effects. The TAFMS HILS test includes initial attitude holding tests for INS initial alignment procedures, timer synchronization tests with an auxiliary lift-off signal, real-time calibration tests using an external thermal recorder, open-loop TAFMS operating tests, and final closed-loop TAFMS HILS tests using the TAFMS attitude measurements as inputs to the closed control loop. The HILS tests are accomplished for several flight conditions composed with nominal flight condition, TWD effect added condition, slosh modes and/or bending modes existing condition, and windy condition, etc.

This paper presents a network-based traction control system(TCS), where several electric control units (ECUs) are connected by a controller area network(CAN) communication system. The control system consists of four ECUs: the electricthrottle controller, the transmission controller, the engine controller and the traction controller. In order to validate the traction control algorithm of the network-based TCS and evaluate its performance, a Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation(HILS) environment was developed. Herein we propose a new concept of the HILS environment called the network-based HILS(Net-HILS) for the development and validation of network-based control systems which include smart sensors or actuators. In this study, we report that we have designed a network-based TCS, validated its algorithm and evaluated its performance using Net-HILS.

In this paper, the HILS system is proposed for the AWS ECU of the bi-modal tram. Using the HILS of the AWS ECU, the behavior of the vehicle can be predicted and the reliability of the AWS system also can be verified. The hardware part of the HILS system includes the ECUs, hydraulic systems, steering linkages and sensors of the bi-modal tram. The software part of the HILS system contains the virtual vehicle model and sensor emulation. Driver input conditions, such as vehicle velocity and front steering angle, are provided to the ECUs by the software. The driving simulation of the bi-modal tram is carried out by the HILS. Also, the reliability of the AWS system, including the ECUs and hydraulic systems, is verified.

This paper presents an HILS(Hardware in the Loop Simulations) based experimental study for the UAV's flight trajectory planning/generation algorithms and guidance/control laws. For the various mission that is loaded on each waypoint, proper trajectory planning and generation algorithms are applied to achieve best performances. Specially, the 'smoothing path' generation and the 'tangent orbit path' guidance laws are presented for the smooth path transitions and in-circle loitering mission, respectively. For the control laws that can minimize the effects of side wind, side slip angle($\beta$) feedback to the rudder scheme is implemented. Finally, being implemented on real hardwares, all the proposed algorithms are validated with integrations of hardware and software altogether via HILS.

Nowadays, a DC microgrid that can link various distributed power sources is gaining much attention. Accordingly, research on fault situations, such as line-to-line and line-to-ground faults of the DC microgrid, has been conducted to improve grid reliability. However, the blackout of an AC system and the oscillation of a DC bus voltage have not been reported or have not been sufficiently verified by previous research. In this study, a 20 kW DC microgrid testbed using a power HIL simulation technique is proposed. This testbed can simulate various fault conditions without any additional grid facilities and dangerous experiments. It includes the blackout of the DC microgrid caused by the AC utility grid's blackout, a drastic load increment, and the DC bus voltage oscillation caused by the LCL filter of the voltage source converter. The effectiveness of the proposed testbed is verified by using Opal-RT's OP5707 real-time simulator with a 3 kW prototype three-port dual-active-bridge converter.

In this paper, by using hardware in the loop(HIL) of the EES, which is an inverter of high-rated technique and analyze the function. By exchanging information between the simulation and system controller to be used in a live system, HIL approach, approach experimental is used to interpret the system mass analysis is not possible in a real system some. This paper presents the implementation of the EES and the RTDS DSP28335 is a real-time connection to the electrical signal, and to verify the actual system is difficult, it was possible to analyze the performance of the system. Thus, it is expected to contribute I raise the stability and reliability of the operation during the actual EES is built.

This paper presents the d-q axis equivalent circuit model of an interior permanent magnet (IPM) which includes the iron loss resistance. The model is implemented to be able to run in real-time on the FPGA-based HIL simulator. Power electronic devices are removed from the motor control unit (MCU) and a separated controller is interfaced with the real-time simulated motor drive through a set of proper inputs and outputs. The inputs signals of the HIL simulation are the gate driver signals generated from the controller, and the outputs are the winding currents and resolver signals. This paper especially presents iron loss prediction which is introduced by means of comparing the torque calculated from d-q axis currents and the desired torque; and minimizing the torque difference. This prediction method has stable prediction algorithm to reduce torque difference at specific speed and load. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed methods.

There have been a lot of efforts on the improvement for the ride comfort and handling stability of the combat vehicles. Especially most of vehicles for military purpose have bad inertial condition and severe operating condition such as the rough road driving, and need a high mobility in the emergency status. It is necessary to apply the controlled suspension system in order to improve the vehicle mobile stability and ride comfort ability of crews. A feasibility study is performed on the application of the semi-active suspension system with a magneto-rheological controlled shock absorber for a $6{\times}6$ combat vehicle. First, the dynamic simulation model of the vehicle including the control model for the semi-active suspension system was executed. Based on this model, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation(HILS) system which has a semi-active suspension controller hardware was constructed. After full vehicle simulations were performed in virtual proving courses with this system, the semi-active suspension system was proven to give better ride comfort and handling stability in comparison with the conventional passive suspension system.

The bimodal tram with a pivoting joint has difficulty in making a sharp turn because of their long body and wheel base. Therefore, applying AWS(all wheel steering) to the bimodal tram is effective to reduce the turning radius. In the present study, HILS(hardware in the loop simulation) system for the AWS ECU test was developed, which consists of the components used in real vehicles. The data obtained from the HILS system also satisfied the dynamics simulation without any error on the operation control.

This paper is concerned with the dynamic modeling for the hardware-in-the-loop simulation of lateral vibrations of a railway vehicle. The resulting dynamic model is a nine degree-of-freedom model which can describe the lateral, roll and yaw motions of the car body and two bogies. It is assumed that the external disturbances come from wheel motions. In order to test the efficacy of the model, the linear quadratic regulator and the sky-hook control algorithm were designed and applied to the model. The simulation results show that both control algorithms are effective in suppressing the vibrations of railway vehicles.
