This paper presents a fault-tolerant control technique for wind turbine systems with sensor and actuator faults. The control objective is to maximize power production and minimize turbine loads by calculating a desired pitch angle within their limits. Any fault with a sensor and actuator can cause significant error in the pitch position of the corresponding blade. This problem may result in insufficient torque such that the power reference cannot be achieved. In this paper, a fault-tolerant control technique using a robust dynamic inversion observer and control allocation is employed to achieve successful pitch control despite these faults in the sensor and actuator. The observer based detection method is used to detect and isolate sensor faults by checking whether errors are larger than threshold values. In addition, the control allocation technique is adopted to tolerate actuator fault. Control allocation is one of the most commonly used fault-tolerant control techniques, especially for over-actuated systems. Further, the control allocation method can be used to achieve the power reference even in the event of blade actuator fault by redistributing the lost torque due to erroneous pitch position into non-faulty blade actuators. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through simulations with a benchmark model of the wind turbine.

This paper presents an integrated roll-pitch-yaw autopilot using an equivalent based sliding mode control for skid-to-turn nonlinear time-varying missile system with lumped disturbances in its six-equations of motion. The considered missile model are developed to integrate the model uncertainties, external disturbances, and parameters perturbation as lumped disturbances. Moreover, it considers the coupling effect between channels, the variation of missile velocity and parameters, and the aerodynamics nonlinearity. The presented approach is employed to achieve a good tracking performance with robustness in all missile channels simultaneously during the entire flight envelope without demand of accurate modeling or output derivative to avoid the noise existence in the real missile system. The proposed autopilot consisting of a two-loop structure, controls pitch and yaw accelerations, and stabilizes the roll angle simultaneously. The Closed loop stability is studied. Numerical simulation is provided to evaluate performance of the suggested autopilot and to compare it with an existing autopilot in the literature concerning the robustness against the lumped disturbances, and the aforesaid considerations. Finally, the proposed autopilot is integrated in a six degree of freedom flight simulation model to evaluate it with several target scenarios, and the results are shown.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the dynamic stall characteristics of an elliptic airfoil when subject to constant pitch motions. In this study, which was motivated by the pressing need for a greater understanding of the reduced frequency$({\kappa})$ effects on flow patterns of elliptic airfoil, the various reduced frequencies were considered. The result confirms that the reduced frequency has a profound effects on the flow patterns. The increase of ${\kappa}$ accelerate the separation bubble bursting process up to ${\kappa}=0.10$, then diminish with further increase in ${\kappa}$. Compared with static condition, the dynamic pitching airfoil delays stall angle approximate $4{\circ}{\sim}5{\circ}$ during pitch-up stroke for ${\kappa}=0.10$. Results from this qualitative analysis provided valuable insight Into the control of dynamics stall.

In this paper, the driving information system of the bicycle has been studied by using the 3-axis acceleration sensor. The sensor module composed of 3-axis acceleration sensor and MCU(Microcontroller Unit) was mounted onto the handle of bicycle and the experiments were conducted on the flatland, uphill and downhill of bicycle road. Three axis acceleration values were converted to the pitch and roll angles, then four major compensation methods have been applied to achieve meaningful data for driving information system. The experimental results of pitch angles showed 2.46, -1.26, 7.79 degrees in case of flatland, uphill, downhill, respectively. When the steering handle turned to the left direction, roll angles showed -29.35, -41.67, -36.98 degrees at each road condition. With the right-turn, roll angles presented 20.05, 33.75, 24.44 degrees in case of flatland, uphill, and downhill, respectively. The pitch angle has been increased more than 40 degrees at stop mode. By using the change of pitch and roll angles, we could obtain the driving information system of bicycle successfully.

This paper proposes an attitude and direction control of a single wheel balanced robot. A unicycle robot is controlled by two independent control laws: the mobile inverted pendulum control method for pitch axis and the reaction wheel pendulum control method for roll axis. It is assumed that both roll dynamics and pitch dynamics are decoupled. Therefore the roll and pitch dynamics are obtained independently considering the interaction as disturbances to each other. Each control law is implemented by a controller separately. The unicycle robot has two DC motors to drive the disk for roll and to drive the wheel for pitch. Since there is no force to change the yaw direction, the present paper proposes a method for changing the yaw direction. The angle data are obtained by a fusion of a gyro sensor and an accelerometer. Experimental results show the performance of the controller and verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

Wind turbine system converts wind energy into electric energy. Since the velocity of wind is random in nature, control of the angular velocity of the blade is necessary in order to generate high quality electric power. The control of a blade can be divided into a stall regulation and a pitch control types. The stall regulation type which is based on the characteristics of an aerodynamic stall of the blades is simple and cheap, but it suffers from fluctuation of the resulting power. Or the contrary, pitch control type is based on the fact that the torque of the blade can be changed by varying the pitch angle of the blade. It is mechanically and mathematically complicated, but the control performance is better than that of the stall regulation type. This paper suggests a method of denying a mathematical modeling of the wind turbine system, and develops a speed control algorithm by pitch control. The validity of the algorithm is demonstrated with the results produced through sets of simulation.

LED 비디오월을 방송 현장에서 사용하기 위해서는 몇 가지 알아두어야 할 사항이 있다. 첫째, 픽셀이 촘촘히 배열되어 있기 때문에 짧은 배열 주기로 인한 무아레 현상이 나타날 수 있고, 둘째, 픽셀 간의 거리(픽셀피치)가 촬영하는 카메라 이미지 센서에 기록될 수 있다. 무아레 현상이 발생하거나 픽셀피치가 관찰되게 되면 시청자의 입장에서는 불편함을 느끼게 된다. 무아레 현상은 카메라의 촬영거리나 각도를 조정하면서 감소시킬 수 있지만, 픽셀피치가 이미지 센서에 녹화되는 걸 방지하기 위해서는 LED 비디오월과 카메라와의 거리를 충분히 확보하거나, 거리가 확보된 상태에서도 픽셀피치가 녹화되지 않도록 방송 현장에서 사용되는 줌렌즈의 배율을 적절하게 변화시켜 운용해야 한다. 원하는 화각을 얻기 위해 배율을 변경시켜 초점거리를 변동시키게 되면 의도치 않게 픽셀피치가 녹화되는 결과를 초래할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비디오월과의 거리가 충분히 확보된 상태에서 줌렌즈의 배율을 변경하면서 픽셀피치가 관찰되지 않는 범위에 대해 알아보았다. LED 비디오월에 영상을 재생시켜 B4 마운트 줌렌즈를 장착한 HD 카메라와 서버를 사용해 LED 비디오월 상태를 녹화하였고, TV 화면으로 재생하여 픽셀피치가 관찰되는지 확인해 보았다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of swirler angle and the aspect ratio of swirl chamber of nozzle on the characteristics of single and twin spray. The characteristics of sprays have been investigated by measuring the spray angle, droplet size and velocity. Visualization of spray was conducted to obtain the spray angle and breakup process. The spray characteristics such as droplet size and velocity were measured by Phase Doppler Anemometry(PDA). It was found that the spray angle was increased with increasing the swirler angle. For both sprays, the axial velocity and SMD were decreased with increasing the swirler angle. It was also shown that the axial velocity and SMD were decreased with increasing the aspect ratio of swirl chamber, but for the twin spray, the axial velocity and SMD were not influenced significantly by the changing the aspect ratio of swirl chamber. The effect of swirler angle on the spray characteristics was greater than the aspect ratio of swirl chamber for single spray. The nozzle pitch was one of the important factors affecting the spray characteristics of twin spray.

선형동기전동기(이하 LSM)를 기반으로 하는 자기부상열차의 경우 부상전자석의 대응면이 LSM의 고정자로 요철 형상을 가지고 있기 때문에 주행 시 부상력이 급변동하는 특징이 있다. 특히, LSM을 이용하는 초고속 자기부상열차의 경우, 고속주행을 위해 부상전자석을 대차에 직접 채결하는 방식을 채택하는데 이러한 체결방식 때문에 인접한 부상전자석들간의 운동 간섭이 심하여 대차에 피치운동이 심하게 발생한다. 이러한 문제들을 해소하기 위해 본 논문에서는 피치운동을 반영한 자기부상제어를 소개한다. 제안하는 부상제어는 개별 부상 전자석의 부상공극을 일정하게 유지시켜 줄 뿐만 아니라 인접한 부상전자석들간의 상대운동을 저감하는데 큰 효과가 있다. 제안한 개념을 시험용 자기부상열차에 적용하여 그 효용성을 검증한다.
