Several uncertainties in the landing environment of an aircraft are not considered, such as the falling speed, ambient temperature, and sensor noise. These uncertainties negatively affect the performance of the controller applied to a landing gear. The sliding mode control (SMC) method, which maintains the optimal performance of a controller under uncertainties, is used in this study. The landing gear is equipped with a magnetorheological damper that changes the yield shear stress according to the applied magnetic field. The applied controller employs a hybrid control combining Skyhook control and force control. The SMC maintains the optimal performance of the hybrid control by minimizing the tracking error of the damper force, even in various landing environments where parameter uncertainties are applied. The effect of SMC is verified through co-simulation results from Simscape and Simulink.

Hall 소자 및 OP-앰프의 장점을 동시에 살린 'Hall 소자를 이용한 자기연산증폭기'를 구성하였다. 이 자기연산증폭기는 높은 입력임피던스 회로와 두 신호의 차 신호를 하나의 신호로 변환하는 회로를 반드시 필요로 하고, 또 이것을 연산처리하기 위해 궤환 입력을 받아 들일 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 특성을 만족하는 새로운 '두 신호의 차 신호를 하나의 신호로 변환하는 연산증폭기(DSCOP)'를 제안하였다. 그리고 제안된 DSCOP와 Hall 소자를 이용하여 자기연산증폭기를 설계하여 그 특성을 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 실지로 시스템을 개별소자로 구성하여 측정하였다.

Line tracking is a well defined method of mobile robot navigation. It is simple in concept, technically easy to implement, and already employed in many industrial sites. Among several different line tracking methods, magnetic sensing is widely used in practice. In comparison, vision-based tracking is less popular due mainly to its sensitivity to surrounding conditions such as brightness and floor characteristics although vision is the most powerful robotic sensing capability. In this paper, a vision-based robust path line detection technique is proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot assuming uncontrollable surrounding conditions. The technique proposed has four processing steps; color space transformation, pixel-level line sensing, block-level line sensing, and robot navigation control. This technique effectively uses hue and saturation color values in the line sensing so to be insensitive to the brightness variation. Line finding in block-level makes not only the technique immune from the error of line pixel detection but also the robot control easy. The proposed technique was tested with a real mobile robot and proved its effectiveness.

This paper is studied on a protective control system for electrical fire and electrical faults due to over current or electric short circuit faults by using electrical thermal characteristics of PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) thermistor and current response characteristics of high sensitive reed switch. The PTC thermistor has characteristic of positive resistivity temperature coefficient according to the temperature variation, which is construction of a regular square and cube demarcation with BaTiO3_Ceramics of positive temperature coefficient. Also PTC thermistor shows the phenomenon which is rapidly increased in the resistivity if the temperature is increased over Curie temperature point, and reed switch, which is used for electrical fault current sensing devices, have a excellent characteristic of response velocity in degree of ${\mu}s{\sim}ms$ that sensing magnetic flux in proportion to dimension of line current. This paper is proposed on a protective control system use PTC thermistor and reed switch for sensor which is protected from electrical fire due to overload faults or electric short circuit faults. Some experimental results of the proposed electric safety control device are confirmed to the validity of the analytical results.

A direct PM generator has the effect of reducing the mechanical noise and ease of maintenance by eliminating a number of power transmission components. In addition, wind turbines operating at low speed with the advantages of high output, high efficiency, and small size. The generator was designed as a small direct-drive PM generator that can be applied to a kite even at low wind speeds. The RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) of the reel was measured in two ways using a cadence/speedometer sensor and a tachometer while the actual kite. The RPM derived from the experiment was applied to the simulation on the designed generator. The no-load characteristic analysis for the magnetic fields produced for the permanent magnet generator by a permanent magnet and stator winding currents is achieved using a 2D coordinate system. A commercial electromagnetic analysis program, ANSYS Maxwell, was used to model the electromagnetic dynamics.

In this paper, we present a global localization and position error compensation method in a known indoor environment using magnet hall sensors. In previous our researches, it was possible to compensate the pose errors of $x_e$, $y_e$, ${\theta}_e$ correctly on the surface of indoor environment with magnets sets by regularly arrange the magnets sets of identical pattern. To improve the proposed method, new strategy that can realize the global localization by changing arrangement of magnet pole is presented in this paper. Total six patterns of the magnets set form the unique landmarks. Therefore, the virtual map can be built by using the six landmarks randomly. The robots search a pattern of magnets set by rotating, and obtain the current global pose information by comparing the measured neighboring patterns with the map information that is saved in advance. We provide experimental results to show the effectiveness of the proposed method for a differential drive wheeled mobile robot.

Scour means the erosion of bed material by flow change when a bridge is constructed in a stream. Scour is one of the critical factors of a bridge failure. There are several methods for the monitoring of scour near bridge foundations; Sounding rods, Magnetic sliding collar System, Sonar system, underwater camera system and so on. In general, Sonar system is preferred due to its convenience and good accuracy. In this study, the new scour monitoring system was developed using profiling sonar sensor. The new system can measure a line profile of a seabed and has small size due to the effectively designed data logger. The performance of the new scour monitoring system was evaluated at a bridge pier in tidal environment. The measured local scour depths were discussed with the result of the empirical formulas; CSU, Froehlich, Laursen and Neill.

Optical image stabilization is a technique to compensate the image blurring caused by some vibrations of camera at the exposure time. Pitching and yawing of camera are sensitive to the image quality so they are usually compensated by optical image stabilization. Corresponding pitching and yawing of a camera, a lens or the image sensor is translated in two-axis direction and then the optical path of camera is adjusted. In this paper, two-axis OIS actuator for mobile camera module is suggested and designed. The actuator is a voice-coil actuator that uses the electromagnetic force of voice-coil to make compensation motions. And ball bearing is used to reduce friction force. Magnetic attractive force between magnets and yokes acts as a preload and magnet springs. Prototype actuator is fabricated to measure the friction force and to verify the feasibility of the OIS actuator with ball bearing. At last, the actuator is improved in consideration of driving force and friction force. Design of experiments is used for designing the actuator.

This paper presents a novel design for a tubular linear brushless permanent-magnet motor. In this design, the magnets in the moving part are oriented in an NS-NS―SN-SN fashion which leads to higher magnetic force near the like-pole region. An analytical methodology to calculate the motor force and to size the actuator was developed. The linear motor is operated in conjunction with a position sensor, three power amplifiers, and a controller to form a complete solution for controlled precision actuation. Real-time digital controllers enhanced the dynamic performance of the motor, and gain scheduling reduced the effects of a nonlinear dead band. In its current state, the motor has a rise time of 30 ms, a settling time of 60 ms, and 25% overshoot to a 5-mm step command. The motor has a maximum speed of 1.5 m/s and acceleration up to 10 g. It has a 10-cm travel range and 26-N maximum pull-out force. The compact size of the motor suggests it could be used in robotic applications requiring moderate force and precision, such as robotic-gripper positioning or actuation. The moving part of the motor can extend significantly beyond its fixed support base. This reaching ability makes it useful in applications requiring a small, direct-drive actuator, which is required to extend into a spatially constrained environment.
