  • A road-adaptive LQG control for the semi-active Macpherson strut suspension system of hydraulic type is investigated. A new control-oriented model, which incorporates the rotational motion of the unsprung mass, is used for control system design. First, based on the extended least squares estimation algorithm, a LQG controller adapting to the estimated road characteristics is designed. With computer simulations, the performance of the proposed LQC-controlled semi-active suspension is compared with that of a non-adaptive one. The results show better control performance of the proposed system over the compared one.

  • The stability of object tracking in non-stationary camera environment, such as intelligent surveillance system using a pan/tilt camera, is less stable compared with stationary camera environment. This is due to the fact that it is difficult to model a background image in non-stationary environment. In this letter, we propose a non-stationay pan/tilt camera surveillance system which uses a stop/go procedure together with a real-time active contour. The proposed system can track the object stable even in an environment where only a few difference frames can be obtained.

  • This preliminary study is about the application of the compound source to the active noise barrier system as control sources. A compound source is composed of two monopole sources but having opposite phase. However, both monopole sources in one compound source are not independently controlled. The source strength of monopole source close to the noise source is proportional to the other one. Therefore, the cost for the hardware system is cheaper than usual system but known to possibly having a similar performance in generating anti-noise acoustic field. In this study, using a simple active noise barrier system model having a non-reflective floor, the effectiveness of the system with compound sources is investigated through computer simulations and shows 30~40 % performance improvement of noise reduction.

  • In this paper, a shunt active power filter (SAPF) has been used to eliminate the harmonic distortion and to improve the power quality of three-phase grid-connected power conditioning system (PCS). The adopted control strategy in active power filter system is based on the instantaneous reactive power theory (P-Q theory). Based on the theoretical analysis, the overall system of three-phase grid-connected with non-linear load PCS has been built and modeled using PSCAD$^{(R)}$/EMTDC$^{TM}$. The simulation results are shown to verify the high effective performance of the implemented SAPF in power system and to verify the reasonableness of the system structure.

  • With the help of information technology The problem of building a concrete form with a shapeless media is the starting point of presenting information by means of sound. Audio-Visual System using sound as a medium is a method that presents an auditory material visually and has a role of linking different sensory organs. In a sense, Audio-Visual System transfers a non-concrete sensation to a concrete one. Audio-Visual System presentation by late methods using active and non-active images produced by computerized irregular procedures can be limited because of the limited ways of visual output. On the other side, visualization using active images can induce more diverse expressions using sound as a medium. This study suggests a new way of expression in animations using visualization of various auditory materials and sounds built by Audio-Visual System with active images.

  • This study introduces and analyzes the geothermal energy availability in Non-active volcanic region. Jeju island in Korea is situated in non-active volcanic region. The island is composed of rock with high pore and clinker, scoria geological layer formed by volcanic activity about two million ago. Volcanic geological layers with porous characteristics have air, vapor, water and a underground structure through which air or water can move easily. For this reason, it is probable that the mechanism of energy acquisition is by convective heat transfer. For this presumption, the availability of underground air as energy source has been studied here through theoretical analysis and experimental data. The energy output of our system ranged from 2,485,076 kJ/day to 4,060,978 kJ/day monitored using variable velocity air flow controller. Our system has capability to be a reliable energy source irrespective of environmental changes. Consequently, underground air can be utilized for energy source and provide the optimal design of heating/cooling system.

  • Grid-connected PV(Photovoltaic) power generation system has experienced increasing attention in recent years. But the growing number of non-linear equipments, such as, inverters, has been demanding the compensation for the disturbances caused by them. These non-linear loads may cause poor power factor and high degree of harmonics. Installation of an AF(active filter) can be one of the solutions to mitigate the line distortion, but it requires additional costs. On the other hand, many PV systems have been interconnected to the distribution system. So, the PV system combined with the function of the active filter system can be useful for the application in the power distribution system. In this paper, PV-AF system using DSP (Digital Signal Processing) controller confirmed that it is possible to combine the AF theory to the three phase PV system connected to the utility under various irradiation conditions.

  • In the process of accurate manufacture and measurement, it is necessarily required to isolate external or internal vibration due to external disturbance and internal actuators. The higher vibration isolation system gets damping around resonance, the better it is generally. This paper analyzes the performance of an existing passive air-spring for vibration isolation table by using experiment and simulation. Optimal design for a passive air spring can be obtained by tuning the size of the orifice. Also design for an active isolation system is carried out by applying PID controller and considering non-linearity of pneumatic characteristics with help of look-up table. We have developed the active vibration isolation table with the better isolation performance.
