This paper presents the implementation of variable structure control system for a linear or nonlinear system using neural networks. The overall control system consists of neural network controller and a reaching mode controller. While the former approximates the equivalent control input on the sliding surface, the latter is used to bring the entire system trajectories toward the sliding surface. No supervised learning procedures are needed and the weights of the neural network are tuned on-line automatically. The neural netowrk-based variable structure control system is applied to a nonlinare unstable inverted pendulum system through computer simulations, and implemented using a microcomputer (80486-50MHz) and applied to the DC servomotor position control system. Simulation and experimental results show the expected approximation sliding property is occurred. The proposed controller is compared with a PID controller and shows better performance than the PID controller in abrupt plant parameter change.

The construction of rule-base for a nonlinear time-varying system, becomes much more complicated because of model uncertainty and parameter variations. Furthemore, FLC does not have an ability of adjusting rule- base in responding to some sudden changes of control environments. To cope with these problems, an auto-tuning method of the fuzzy rule-base is required. In this paper, the GA-based Fuzzy-Neural control system combining Fuzzy-Neural control theory with the genetic algorithm(GA), which is known to be very effective in the optimization problem, will be proposed. The tuning of the proposed system is performed by two tuning processes(the course tuning process and the fine tuning/adaptive learning process). The effectiveness of the proposed control system will be demonstrated by computer simulations using a two degree of freedom robot manipulator.

This paper presents a new sensorless vector control system for high performance induction motor drives fed by a matrix converter with non-linearity compensation and disturbance observer. The nonlinear voltage distortion that is caused by commutation delay and on-state voltage drop in switching device is corrected by a new matrix converter modeling. The lumped disturbances such as parameter variation and load disturbance of the system are estimated by the radial basis function network (RBFN). An adaptive observer is also employed to bring better responses at the low speed operation. Experimental results are shown to illustrate the performance of the proposed system.

A low-Reynolds-number second moment turbulence closure was developed with the aid of DNS data. Model coefficients of nonlinear return to isotropy term were derived by use of Cayley-Hamilton theorem and two component turbulence limit condition as the functions of invariances of anisotropy and turbulent Reynolds number. Launder and Tselepidakis' cubic mean pressure strain model was modified to fit the predicted pressure-strain components to the DNS data. Two component turbulence limit condition was the precondition to be satisfied in developing the second moment turbulence closure for the realizable Reynolds stress prediction. But the satisfactions of Reynolds stress level and pressure-strain level of each component were compromised because the satisfaction of both levels was impossible.

This paper presents an investigation of the parameter modeling on the basis of Finite Element (FE) analysis in which the variable frequency characteristic in field weakening is considered in Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (IPMSM). The parameters of IPMSM have nonlinear characteristics not only in accordance with the load variation but also with the current phase angle of a system fed inverter. From the results of FE analysis, the performances of torque and speed-power are simulated and the validity of the proposed FE analysis is compared with experimental results.

The speed and position information of the rotor are required in the speed control of SRM(Switched Reluctance Motors). This information is generally provided by shaft encoder or resolver. It is weak in the dusty, high temperature, and EMI environment. Consequntly, much attention has been given to SRM control for eliminationating the position and speed sensors. In this paper, a new estimation algorithm for the rotor position and speed for SRM drives is described. The algorithm is implemented by the sliding mode observer. The stability and robustness of the sliding observer for the parameter variations of the SRM are proved by variable structure control theory. Speed control of the SRM is accomplished by the estimated speed and position. Experiment results verify that the mode observer is able to estimate the speed and position well.

Nonpotential characteristics of magnetic fields in AR 5747 are examined using Mees Solar Observatory magnetograms taken on Oct. 20, 1989 to Oct. 22, 1989. The active region showed such violent flaring activities during the observational span that strong X-ray flares took place including a 2B/X3 flare. The magnetogram data were obtained by the Haleakala Stokes Polarimeter which provides simultaneous Stokes profiles of the Fe I doublet 6301.5 and 6302.5. A nonlinear least square method was adopted to derive the magnetic field vectors from the observed Stokes profiles and a multi-step ambiguity solution method was employed to resolve the $180^{\circ}$ ambiguity. From the ambiguity-resolved vector magnetograms, we have derived a set of physical quantities characterizing the field configuration, which are magnetic flux, vertical current density, magnetic shear angle, angular shear, magnetic free energy density, a measure of magnetic field discontinuity MAD and linear force-free coefficient. Our results show that (1) magnetic nonpotentiality is concentrated near the inversion line in the flaring sites, (2) all the physical parameters decreased with time, which may imply that the active region was in a relaxation stage of its evolution, (3) 2-D MAD has similar patterns with other nonpotential parameters, demonstrating that it can be utilized as an useful parameter of flare producing active region, and (4) the linear force-free coefficient could be a evolutionary indicator with a merit as a global nonpotential parameter.

In this paper, a 2-stage power amplifier(PA) for IMT-2000 handset has been designed and fabricated using SiGe HBT, which has excellent frequency characteristics and linearity, to reduce size and weight instead of existing linearization techniques. DC I-V characteristics and S-parameter of SiGe HBT were simulated by Agilent circuit simulator(ADS), with large signal Gummel-Poon nonlinear circuit model. Then the output and interstage matching circuits were designed to satisfy the high power condition and the high gain condition, respectively. The experimental results showed output power of 27.1dBm and ACLR of 20dB, PAE of 34%, and linear power gain of 18.9dB over frequency ranges from 1920MHz to 1980MHz.

This paper proposes an image-based modeling method which recovers 3D models using projected line segments in multiple images. Using the method, a user obtains accurate 3D model data via several steps of simple manual works. The embedded nonlinear minimization technique in the model parameter estimation stage is based on the distances between the user provided image line segments and the projected line segments of primitives. We define an error using a finite line segment and thus increase accuracy in the model parameter estimation. The error is defined as the sum of differences between the observed image line segments provided by the user and the predicted image line segments which are computed using the current model parameters and camera parameters. The method is robust in a sense that it recovers 3D structures even from partially occluded objects and it does not be seriously affected by small measurement errors in the reconstruction process. This paper also describesexperimental results from real images and difficulties and tricks that are found while implementing the image-based modeler.

In this paper, we investigate the existence of an S-shaped connected component in the set of positive solutions of the Dirichlet problem of the one-dimension Minkowski-curvature equation $$\{\(\frac{u^{\prime}}{\sqrt{1-u^{{\prime}2}}}\)^{\prime}+{\lambda}a(x)f(u)=0,\;x{\in}(0,1),\\u(0)=u(1)=0$$, where ${\lambda}$ is a positive parameter, $f{\in}C[0,{\infty})$, $a{\in}C[0,1]$. The proofs of main results are based upon the bifurcation techniques.
