In this paper, the steady-state operating performance analysis for the three-phase squirrel cage rotor self-excited induction generator (SEIG) driven by a variable-speed prime mover (VSPM) in addition to a constant-speed prime mover (CSPM) is presented on the basis of an effective algorithm based on its frequency-domain equivalent circuit. The operating characteristics of the three-phase SEIG coupled by a VSPM and/or a CSPM are evaluated on line processing under the condition of the electrical passive load parameters variations with simple and efficient computation processing procedure in unregulated voltage control loop scheme. A three-phase SEIG prototype setup with a VSPM as well as a CSPM is implemented for the small-scale clean renewable and alternative energy utilizations. The experimental operating characteristic results are illustrated and give good agreements with the simulation ones.

Automation of wood processing is strongly required to improve the productivity and quality of wood products in wood industry which is one of the most labor-intensive industries. Classification of surface defects on wood boards such as knots is one of the important steps towards a completely automated wood processing system. In this study the possibility of detection of knots by image processing technique was investigated. Algorithm for the automatic determination of threshold value was developed to enhance the flexibility of image processing system. Two different approaches, grid method and tile method, were developed to enhance the speed in extracting features from images. Grid method showed slightly higher processing speed and tile method proved much more stable in determining threshold values. Tile size of $5{\times}5$ pixels or $6{\times}6$ pixels was found to be proper to get stable results with resonable processing time.

This paper suggests a high-speed blurred blob image inspection algorithm. When we inspect some products using high-resolution camera, the detected blob images usually have severe blur. And the blur makes it hard to detect an object. There are many blur-processing algorithms, but most of them have no real-time property for high-speed applications at all. In this paper, an MMX technology based algorithm is suggested. The suggested algorithm was found to be effective to detect the blurred blob images via many simulations and long time real-plant experiments.

In order to enhance encoding speed in dynamic image encoding using H.264/AVC, reducing the time for motion estimation which takes a large portion of the processing time is very important. An approach using graphics processing unit(GPU) as a coprocessor to assist the central processing unit(CPU) in computing massive data, will be a way to reduce the processing time. In this paper, we present an efficient block-level parallel algorithm for the motion estimation(ME) on a computer unified device architecture(CUDA) platform developed in general-purpose computation on GPU. Experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this study, researches were conducted as follows. First, as the basic experiment, the cutting speed, feedrate, and the depth of cut were set as the process parameters, and by setting the surface roughness as the factor of measurement for each of the combinations, and the analysis about cutting tendency of the material was conducted by proceeding the turning process of Co-Cr-Mo alloy. Second, by setting the feature of the surface roughness according to the 'turning processing condition' that was confirmed in the previous experiment, and by applying the Taguchi Method, the conditions that influence the features of the surface roughness according to the 'turning processing condition' of Co-Cr-Mo was analyzed, and also by measuring the surface roughness according to each of the 'cutting conditions', the optimal processing condition was generated. As the result of analysis, it was possible to understand that the factor that mostly affects the surface roughness was the cutting speed, followed by the dept of cutting and transfer speed, and as for the optimal processing condition, it was possible to find that the cutting speed was 5,000rpm, and the depth of cut was 0.1mm, and the feedrate was 0.003mm/rev, and the value of the surface roughness at this point is $0.197{\mu}m$.

Ceramic core processing technology using 5-axis high-speed cutting machine is applied to make the glass molds for aspherical ophthalmic lenses. In the technology, optimum processing conditions for aspherical ceramic molds are based on minimal experimental data of surface roughness. Such surface roughness is influenced by fabricating tools, cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, respectively. In this paper, we present that surface roughness and shape accuracy of aspheric ceramic mold obtained by optimum processing conditions are Pa $0.6184{\mu}m$ and Pt $5.0301{\mu}m$, respectively, and propose that these values are sufficiently possible to apply to making the glass molds for aspherical ophthalmic lenses.

Purpose: Chicken cutting is done manually, which is inefficient, unhygienic, and carries a high accident risk during processing. This study develops and evaluates an automatic chicken cutting machine that suits small-scale workplaces. Methods: This study developed an automatic chicken cutting machine equipped with four traverse blades and two longitudinal blades. An experiment was conducted with various blade rotating speeds and tray feed rates to evaluate the machine's performance. The chicken loss rate and chicken piece weights were measured to calculate the coefficient of variation (CV), thereby determining processing uniformity. Results: The optimal cutting conditions with the smallest chicken loss rate were 0.05 m/s tray feed speed and 18.8 m/s and 16.4 m/s for the traverse and longitudinal blades, respectively. The processing ran at 55.3 chickens per hour and the chicken pieces were more uniform when using the device than for hand-work processed pieces. Conclusions: The loss rate increased in proportion to the cutting-blade rotation speed due to the high cutting rate in meat. The loss rate also increased as the tray feed speed slowed because the cutting blade pushed the chicken meat. The tray feed speed should be increased to improve the amount processed per hour.

In this paper, the surface roughness influenced by Sm45C hardness in high frequency induction hardening and mechanical characteristics for the changed Hv 598 part and the unchanged hardness Hv 223 part by use of cermet and ceramic cutting tools was experimentally examined. Finally, we could be had some important results by processing surface roughness on cutting conditions such as cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and changes of tool nose radius. The results are summarized as follows. 1. In case of the same cutting condition, the hardness of workpiece was high and acquired the best processing surface roughness when the radius of the tool nose had 0.8 mm and feed rate was 0.04 mm/rev. 2. In case of the hardness of workpiece, though the cutting speed didn't have an effect on processing surface roughness, the less feed rate and the more processing surface roughness improved. On the other hand, the low inside the hardness of workpiece, the more cutting speed and the more feed rate increase, the processing surface of roughness improved. 3. Regardless of the hardness of workpiece, the change of the cutting depth didn't have great effect on the surface roughness. 4. On cutting the high surface hardness part with cutting tools of cermet and ceramic, it can be acquired the higher processing surface roughness because it hadn't been taken effect on cutting speed, In case of the cutting process of the low inside hardness part the two cutting tools have acquired the similar processing surface roughness.

The Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT) is effective technique for image compression, which is widely used in the area of digital signal processing. In this paper, an efficient DCT processor is proposed and simulated by using Verilog HDL. This algorithm is improved 60% in processing speed, but it's somewhat complicate compared with Y. Arai's algorithm. This algorithm will be used efficiently for real time image processing.
