  • This study was performed to Investigate size of droplet sprinkled from mini-sprinkler. Twelve different kinds of the sprinkler having various structures and sizes of nozzle orifices were selected and tested. Diameters of the droplet reached at several distances from a sprinkler were measured by a machine vision system and the volume median diameters (VMM) were determined statistically. The size of droplet was not affected much by the size of nozzle orifice of a sprinkler but was rather more affected by structure of the sprinkler, especially by the shape of spreader of the sprinkler. Experiment of varying pressure of sprinkling water validated that the size of droplet was inversely proportional to water pressure powered by 1/3. Hence the size of droplet at any water pressure could be easily estimated from experimental data. The size of droplet increased as travel distance of the droplet increases in a relationship of and order function. The size of droplet of the tested sprinkler were in the ranges of 100-300fm within 1m of droplet travel distance, 230~470${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ within 1~2m of droplet travel distance and 300~770${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ within 2~3m of droplet travel distance.

  • It is very important to learn behavioral policies that allow multiple agents to work together organically for common goals in various real-world applications. In this multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) environment, most existing studies have adopted centralized training with decentralized execution (CTDE) methods as in effect standard frameworks. However, this multi-agent reinforcement learning method is difficult to effectively cope with in a dynamic environment in which new environmental changes that are not experienced during training time may constantly occur in real life situations. In order to effectively cope with this dynamic environment, this paper proposes a novel multi-agent reinforcement learning system, C-COMA. C-COMA is a continual learning model that assumes actual situations from the beginning and continuously learns the cooperative behavior policies of agents without dividing the training time and execution time of the agents separately. In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness and excellence of the proposed model C-COMA by implementing a dynamic mini-game based on Starcraft II, a representative real-time strategy game, and conducting various experiments using this environment.
