The purpose of this work is to predict the systolic blood pressure (BP) during exercise from pulse transit time (PTT) for warning of possible danger. PTT was calculated as the time between R-peak of ECG and the peak of differential photoplethysmograph (PPG). For the PTT-BP model, we used regress equations from previous studies and 3 kinds of new models combining linear and nonlinear regress equation. The model parameters were estimated with the data measured under low to middle intensity exercise, and then was tested with the data measured under high intensity exercise. Predicted BP values after high intensity exercise were compared with those measured by cuff-type sphygmomanometer. The results showed that the error between measured and predicted values were acceptable for the monitoring BP. We tested PTT-BP models 1 month after the identification without further calibration. Models could predict the BP and the errors between measured and predicted BP were about 5mmHg. The suggested system is expected to be helpful in recognizing any danger during exercise.

This paper presents a refined protection algorithm of the unfused 22.9kV shunt capacitor banks in grounded wye connection to improve the existing algorithm using the voltage difference method. It is difficult to detect ground faults with arc near the input points or ground faults near the grounding point by the existing algorithm using only the voltage balanced relay. This paper shows that ground faults with arc near the input point can be detected by harmonics analysis of the differential voltage and that it has no impact of harmonics out of nonlinear loads which have the quantitative influence on capacitor banks. Thus the proposed method using harmonics analysis can be a proper detection method. In case of ground faults near the grounding point, an OVGR is being added recently and its validity is verified in this paper. The proposed method is applied to a 22.9kV example system and is verified that the proposed algorithm can detect clearly faults which are not easy to detect by the existing method.

In this paper, we describe a capacitive position sensing and motion control scheme of a MEMS scanner used for laser display application. The laser displays can be made by scanning laser beams much the same way a CRT scans electron beams. So the accuracy of the scanner motion determines the quality of the displayed image. The MEMS scanner under consideration is composed of electrostatic comb electrodes with initial gap and requires large driving voltage. Due to the under-damping and nonlinear driving characteristics, the scanner motion is subject to be an unwanted oscillation. For the linear scanner motion, we devise a differential charge amplifier and phase compensator. The experimental results show that the implemented feedback control system provides sufficient electrical damping and improves the dynamic performance of the scanner.

반복계산법 (iterative method)중의 하나인 파형완화법 ( Waveform Relaxation Method)을 이용하여 시간의 함수인 비선형 원자로 동역학(reactor dynamics)의 해를 병렬처리기법으로 구하였다. 파형완화법은 각 반복계산과정중에서, 먼저 전체 시스템을 작은 부시스템(subsystem)으로 나누고, 각각의 부시스템들은 주어진 각각의 시간간격(time Interval)에서 해를 독립적으로 구한다. 만약 이 기법에 맞게 효과적으로 부시스템으로 나눌 수 있다면 병렬처리기법에 잘 응용될 수 있다 본 논문에서는 파형완화법이 소개되었고, 두 종류의 원자로 동역학에 응용되었다. 결론적으로 파형완화법은 원자로 동역학에 응용될 수 있으나, 다목적 연구로에 응응한 결과는 병렬효과가 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

The present work aims to report the consequences of Darcy-Forchheimer medium in flow of Cross fluid model toward a stretched surface. Flow in porous space is categorized by Darcy-Forchheimer medium. Further heat transfer characteristics are examined via thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption. Transformation procedure is used. The arising system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations is solved numerically by means of shooting method. The effects of different flow variables on velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, and heat transfer rate are discussed. The obtained outcomes show that velocity was enhanced with the increase in the Weissenberg number but decays with increase in the porosity parameter and Hartman number. Temperature field is boosted by thermal radiation and heat generation; however, it decays with the increase in the Prandtl number.

This paper describes a study of the mapping relationship between the vertical deformation of bridge structures and rail deformation of high-speed railway, taking the interlayer interactions of the bridge subgrade CRTS II ballastless slab track system (HSRBST) into account. The differential equations and natural boundary conditions of the mapping relationship between the vertical deformation of bridge structures and rail deformation were deduced according to the principle of stationary potential energy. Then an analytical model for such relationship was proposed. Both the analytical method proposed in this paper and the finite element numerical method were used to calculate the rail deformations under three typical deformations of bridge structures and the evolution of rail geometry under these circumstances was analyzed. It was shown that numerical and analytical calculation results are well agreed with each other, demonstrating the effectiveness of the analytical model proposed in this paper. The mapping coefficient between bridge structure deformation and rail deformation showed a nonlinear increase with increasing amplitude of the bridge structure deformation. The rail deformation showed an obvious "following feature"; with the increase of bridge span and fastener stiffness, the curve of rail deformation became gentler, the track irregularity wavelength became longer, and the performance of the rail at following the bridge structure deformation was stronger.

In the present paper, we study the entropy analysis of boundary layer flow over a slender stretching sheet under the action of a non uniform magnetic field that is acting perpendicular to the flow direction. The effects of viscous dissipation and Joule heating are included in the energy equation. Using similarity transformation technique the momentum and thermal boundary layer equations to a system of nonlinear differential equations. Numerical solutions are obtained using the shooting and fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The expressions for the entropy generation number and Bejan number are also obtained using a suggested similarity transformation. The main objective of this article is to investigate the effects of different governing parameters such as the magnetic parameter ($M^2$), Prandtl number (Pr), Eckert number (Ec), velocity index parameter (m), wall thickness parameter (${\alpha}$), temperature difference parameter (${\Omega}$), entropy generation number (Ns) and Bejan number (Be). All these effects are portrayed graphically and discussed in detail. The analysis reveals that entropy generation reduces with decreasing wall thickness parameter and increasing temperature difference between the stretching sheet and the fluid outside the boundary layer. The viscous and magnetic irreversibilities are dominant in the vicinity of the stretching surface.

Effects of viscoelastic foundation on vibration of curved-beam structure with clamped and simply-supported boundary conditions is investigated in this study. In doing so, a micro-scale laminate composite beam with two piezoelectric face layer with a carbon nanotube reinforces composite core is considered. The whole beam structure is laid on a viscoelastic substrate which normally occurred in actual conditions. Due to small scale of the structure non-classical elasticity theory provided more accurate results. Therefore, nonlocal strain gradient theory is employed here to capture both nano-scale effects on carbon nanotubes and microscale effects because of overall scale of the structure. Equivalent homogenous properties of the composite core is obtained using Halpin-Tsai equation. The equations of motion is derived considering energy terms of the beam and variational principle in minimizing total energy. The boundary condition is assumed to be clamped at one end and simply supported at the other end. Due to nonlinear terms in the equations of motion, semi-analytical method of general differential quadrature method is engaged to solve the equations. In addition, due to complexity in developing and solving equations of motion of arches, an artificial neural network is design and implemented to capture effects of different parameters on the inplane vibration of sandwich arches. At the end, effects of several parameters including nonlocal and gradient parameters, geometrical aspect ratios and substrate constants of the structure on the natural frequency and amplitude is derived. It is observed that increasing nonlocal and gradient parameters have contradictory effects of the amplitude and frequency of vibration of the laminate beam.

본 논문은 듀얼 확장 칼만 필터를 기반으로 2링크 매니퓰레이터의 정밀한 제어를 위한 미지 변수 추정법을 제안한다. 2링크 매니퓰레이터 시스템은 기구학 및 동역학 방정식에 비선형성을 가지며 내부 파라미터의 변화에 민감한 특성을 보인다. 이러한 시스템의 경우 내부 미지 파라미터의 추정이 매우 중요하다. 특히 거친 환경에서 작업을 수행함에 있어서 중량과 관성행렬의 변화는 시스템을 불안정하게 만드는 요소이다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제안한 방법을 기반으로 시스템의 상태 및 미지 변수를 동시에 추정하여 앞서 소개한 문제점들을 해결하고자 한다. 제안한 방법은 Mathwork에서 제공하는 Matlab 기반으로 시뮬레이션을 수행했고, 그 결과는 RLS 알고리즘과 비교하여 성능을 분석하였다. 제안된 방법은 상태 및 미지 변수 추정에 RLS 방법보다 뛰어난 추정 성능을 보임을 확인 하였다.

기존의 방법에서는 비선형 운동 물체의 운동 방정식을 선형화하므로써 비행체의 운동 상태방정식을 구하고, 각 제어 기관에 따라 전달함수를 구하여 안정성 판별과 더불어 제어기를 설계하였다. 이러한 설계 방법으로는 일반적인 비행기와 같은 형태, 비행 환경이 급격하게 변하지 않고 속도가 빠르지 않는 비행체의 유도/제어기 설계에 많이 사용되어 많은 성능을 발휘할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 설계 방법은 통상적이지 않는 비행체 형태뿐만 아니라 빠른 속도에서 급격한 움직임을 갖는 비행체에서는, 기존의 유도/제어기 설계 방법으로는 이러한 비선형성으로 인하여 제어성(경로문제)과 안정성(안정화문제)을 동시에 충족할만한 성능을 발휘 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 불확실성이 내포된 비행체 제어 문제에서 제어성과 안정성을 동시에 충족시키기 위한 과정 중 먼저 제어성 문제를 해결하기 위한 비행체 제어성을 분석하고 모델을 제시한다. 또한 본 논문에서 비행체 모델과 동역학 모델에서 제어 요소로서 하중(중력수)을 설정하고 비행 특성에 따른 제어요소 값을 살펴본다. 이것은 Min 설계 방법 1단계이다.
