The descriptor system model has a high ability in representing dynamical systems. It can preserve physical parameters in the coefficient matrices, and describe the dynamic part, static part, and even the improper part of the system in the same form. The design of mixed $H_{2}/H_{\infty}$ controllers for linear time-invariant descriptor systems is considered in this paper. Firstly, an $H_2$ and $H_{\infty}$ synthesis problems fur a descriptor system are presented separately in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) based on the bounded real lemma. Then, we show that the existence of a mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ controller by which the $H_2$ norm of the second channel is minimized while keeping the $H_2$ norm bound of the first channel less than ${\gamma}$, is reduced to the linear objective minimization problem. The class of desired controllers that are assumed to have the same structure as the plant is parameterized by using the linearizing change of variables.

Training for radiation protection and control requires a visual understanding of radiation, which cannot be perceived by the human senses. Trainees must also master the effective use of measuring instruments. Traditionally, such training has exposed trainees to radiation sources. Here, we present a novel e-training strategy that enables safe, exposure-free handling of a radiation measuring tool called a survey meter. Our mixed reality radiation-training system merges the physical world with a digital one. Collaborating with a mixed reality headset (HoloLens 2), this system constructs a mock-up of a survey meter in real-world space. The HoloLens 2 employs a browser-based application to visualize radiation and to simulate/share the use of the survey meter, including its physical movements. To provide a dynamic learning experience, the system adjusts the survey-meter mock-up readings according to the operator's movements, distance from the radiation source, the response time of survey meter, and shielding levels. Through this approach, we expect that trainees will acquire practical skills in interpreting survey-meter readings and gain a visual understanding of radiation in real-world situations.

This paper deals with the problem of redundancy allocation for the mixed reliability system in an optimal way. Two kinds of the reliability system are considered for optimal allocation of parallel redundancy. The problem is approached as the optimization problems using th standard method of dynamic programming(DP). The algorithm for solving the optimal redundancy allocation is proposed and then the DP algorithm is applied to two numerical examples such as maximization of reliability subject to an allowable cost-constraint and minimization of the total cost subject to the specified minimum reliability-constraint. A consequence of this study is that the developed computer program package can be applied to the optimal redundancy allocation for the mixed reliability system.

In the power system with an electric storage system that can increase utilization rate of the source of such new renewable energy, this paper introduces the approach on the daily unit commitment scheduling that determines simultaneously optimum operational condition and output of thermal generators and electric storage device. The unit commitment is one of the most important issues in economic operation and security of short-term operational plan of the power system. It is to determine on/off status of generator to minimize operational cost during the given period. The committed generator should satisfy various operational limitation such as estimated demand by system, spinning reserve condition within minimum operational cost. In order to determine on/off or charge/discharge/idle condition and output level of units and electric storage system, the MILP(Mixed Integer Linear Programming) is suggested. The proposed approach is the mixed method between LP(Linear Programming) and IP(integer programming) which seeks the value of real number and integer that maximize or minimize function objective within given condition. The daily unit commitment problem with the electric storage system is applied to MILP algorithm through linearization and formulation process. The proposed approach is applied to the test system.

The H$_{\infty}$ algorithms of the mixed weight sensitivity is used for the robust design of the reactor power control system. The mixed weight sensitivity method requires the selection of the proper weighting functions for the loop shaping in frequency domain. The complexity of the system equation and the non-convexity of the problem make it very difficult to determine the weighting functions. The genetic algorithm which is improved and hybridized with the simulated annealing is applied to determine the weighting functions. This approach permits an automatic calculation and the resultant system shows good robustness and performance.

Macrophyte plays an important role in purification of wastewater. They have capacity to improve the water quality by absorbing nutrients, with their effective root system. In this study, removal of nutrient as well as organic matter was observed by some important macrophytes i.e. Pistia stratoites, Hydrocharis dubia and Salvinia sp. indepe ndently as well as in mixed culture under the laboratory condition. The highest total nitrogen removal was observed for Pistia stratoites (86.47%) in monoculture and Salvinia sp. + P. stratoites (76.11%) in mixed culture system. Corresponding figures for total phosphorous were observed for P. stratoites (75.60%) in monoculture and Salvinia sp. + P. stratoites (71.11%) in mixed culture system. Similar result was observed for ammonia removal in both systems. Additionally, P. stratoites showed the highest removal of organic matter, in monoculture system (68.46%) where as Salvinia sp. + P. stratoites showed the highest removal of organic matter in mixed culture system (82.73 %).

In an era where non-face-to-face meetings become common, eXtended Reality(XR) is rapidly developing and filling areas that are not satisfied in online meetings based on existing photos/video method. In particular, general users are also able to easily access and use HMD-type mixed reality devices. However, the basic operations applied in HMD-type in Mixed Reality(MR) with hands as the main input tool do not have a standardized system, and each manufacturer operates in a separate response to each other's hand movements. Therefore, this study considered that a systematic hand motion matching system considering the usability and efficiency of operations performed in mixed reality was necessary, and conducted a study to clarify this. First, the basic operation performed in the MR environment and its attributes were investigated, and at the same time, the structure of the hand and the attributes of the possible hand movements were identified. Based on the identified properties, it is intended to present a system that can intuitively and efficiently match basic operation properties in the MR environment with subtle operation properties according to the structure/context of the hand.

This study presents experimental results of Steel-PSC mixed structural system having front-rear plate connection between Steel and Prestressed Concrete. Two kinds of Steel-PSC mixed structural system of 5.4m length were tested to evaluate flexural behaviors under four point loading, and 4 kinds of specimens with and without prestressing force at R & L type connection were tested to observe the shear behavior. Based on the test results of load-deflection curves and failure modes of specimens, it is found that the proposed L shape connection with front-rear plate connection between Steel and Prestressed Concrete has higher strength and stiffness. From the study, Steel-PSC mixed structural system with L shaped connection has a better structural performance in connection part.

This paper considers the design of mixed $H_2/\;H_{\infty}$ controllers for linear time-invariant descriptor systems. Firstly, an $H_{\infty}$ and $H_2$ synthesis problem for a descriptor system are presented separately in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) based on the bounded real lemma. Then, the existence of a mixed $H_2/\;H_{\infty}$ controller by which the $H_2$ norm of the second channel is minimized while keeping the $H_{\infty}$ norm bound of the first channel less than ${\gamma}$, is reduced to the linear objective minimization problem. The class of desired controllers that are assumed to have the same structure as the plant is parameterized by using the linearizing change of variables. In addition, we show the procedure by which a obtained descriptor controller can be transformed to a non-descriptor one.
