최근 기존의 유압 차량 리프트는 높이제어의 어려움으로 인해 기술개발의 한계에 직면하였다. 휠 얼라이먼트나 차량의 하중 분포에 따른 미세한 불규칙적인 변형을 보상하기 위해서는 매우 정밀한 위치 제어성이 요구되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 기존 리프트 시스템의 한계를 해결하고자 매우 정교한 압력강하를 이끌어낼 수 있는 MR 밸브 시스템을 활용하여 새로운 차량 리프트를 제안하고 이에 대한 분석을 진행한다. 우선적으로 MR 밸브의 요구되는 성능을 파악하기 위해 유압 리프트의 운동방정식을 설립하고, 요구되는 압력강하를 얻기 위해 MR 밸브를 설계한다. 또한 정밀한 위치 제어 성능을 얻기 위해 PID 제어기를 설립하고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 시스템의 제어성을 검증한다.

Solar thermal reactor was studied for hydrogen production with a two step thermochemical cycle including T-R(Thermal Reduction) step and W-D(Water Decomposition) step. NiFe2O4 and Fe3O4 supported by monoclinic ZrO2 were used as a catalyst device and Ni powder was used for decreasing the T-R step reaction temperature. Maintaining a temperature level of about $1100^{\circ}C$ and $1400^{\circ}C$, for 2-step thermochemical reaction, is important for obtaining maximum performance of hydrogen production. The controller was designed for adjusting high temperature solar thermal energy heating the foam-device coated with nickel- ferrite powder. A Pill temperature control system was designed based on 2-step thermochemical reaction experiment data(measured concentrated solar radiation and the temperature of foam device during experiment). The cycle repeated 5 times, ferrite conversion rate are 4.49~29.97% and hydrogen production rate is 0.19~1.54mmol/g-ferrite. A temperature controller was designed for increasing the number of reaction cycles related with the amount of produced hydrogen.

The change of the global performance of a turret-moored FPSO (Floating Production Storage Offloading) with DP (Dynamic Positioning) control is simulated, analyzed, and compared for two different internal turret location cases; bow and midship. Both collinear and non-collinear 100-yr GOM (Gulf of Mexico) storm environments and three cases (mooring-only, with DP position control, with DP position+heading control) are considered. The horizontal trajectory, 6DOF (degree of freedom) motions, fairlead mooring and riser tension, and fuel consumptions are compared. The PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller based on LQR (linear quadratic regulator) theory and the thrust-allocation algorithm which is based on the penalty optimization theory are implemented in the fully-coupled time-domain hull-mooring-riser-DP simulation program. Both in collinear and non-collinear 100-yr WWC (wind-wave-current) environments, the advantage of mid-ship turret is demonstrated by the significant reduction in heave at the turret location due to the minimal coupling with pitch mode, which is beneficial to mooring and riser design. However, in the non-collinear WWC environment, the mid-turret case exhibits unfavorable weathervaning characteristics, which can be reduced by employing DP position and heading controls as demonstrated in the present case studies. The present study also reveals the plausible cause of the failure of mid-turret Gryphon Alpha FPSO in milder environment than its survival condition.

This paper reports the control method for the core power of the China initiative Accelerator Driven System (CiADS) facility. In the CiADS facility, an intense external neutron source provided by a proton accelerator coupled to a spallation target is used to drive a sub-critical reactor. Without any control rod inside the sub-critical reactor, the core power is controlled by adjusting the proton beam intensity. In order to continuously change the beam intensity, an adjustable aperture is considered to be used at the Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) line of the accelerator. The aperture size is adjusted based on the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controllers, by comparing either the setting beam intensity or the setting core power with the measured value. To evaluate the proposed control method, a CiADS core model is built based on the point reactor kinetics model with six delayed neutron groups. The simulations based on the CiADS core model have indicated that the core power can be controlled stably by adjusting the aperture size. The response time in the adjustment of the core power depends mainly on the adjustment time of the beam intensity.

본 연구의 목적은 가까운 미래의 선박운동정보를 이용하는 피드포워드 제어알고리즘과 FPSO 운동 수치 시뮬레이션 모델을 개발하고 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제어알고리즘의 성능을 검증하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 조류, 바람, 파력 등의 환경하중에 의하여 발생한 선체운동의 미래 예측치를 활용한 피드포워드 제어력을 추가적으로 가지는 Dynamic Positioning System에 대하여 연구한다. 먼저, 조류력, 풍력 및 파력에 대한 수학모델을 선정하여 환경하중에서의 선체운동을 계산하고, 현재의 선체운동 값과 Brown 지수평활 예측모형을 활용하여 미래 선체운동 값을 예측하였다. 또한 위치 유지와 Heading angle 제어를 위한 제어력을 PID(Proportional-Integral-Derivative)이론을 이용하여 결정한 피드백 제어기와 미래 선체운동 값을 이용하여 결정한 피드포워드 제어기로 구성하였다. 그리고 각 Thruster에 요구되는 추력은 라그랑지승수법을 활용하여 분배하였다. 마지막으로 FPSO(Floating Production Storage and Offloading)의 운동과 Dynamic Positioning System에 대한 시뮬레이션 모델을 구축하여 선박의 위치 및 Heading angle 제어에 관한 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 제안하는 피드백 제어기와 피드포워드 제어기를 동시에 가지는 제어시스템의 성능을 평가하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 피드백 및 피드 포워드 제어기가 적용된 DPS 제어시스템이 기존의 피드백 제어기보다 위치유지 및 헤딩각 유지 능력에서 개선되었고 각 Thruster에 요구되는 평균 제어력 및 최대 제어력의 크기도 감소함을 보였다. 이에 따라 DPS에 요구되는 동력 감축과 Azimuth Thruster 용량의 감소로 인하여 비용 절감의 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

가스터빈 기관은 우주항공, 발전 플랜트뿐만 아니라 해상운송 분야에 사용되는 원동기로서 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 그러나 그 구조가 복잡하고 연소과정에서 시간지연 요소가 포함되어 있어 가스터빈 기관을 잘 제어할려면 정교한 수학적 모델링이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 가스터빈 기관의 주요 구성품인 가스발생기, PLA 액추에이터, 미터링 밸브에 대한 모델링 기법을 설명한다. 또한, 가스터빈 기관의 시운전 데이터를 기초로 몇 가지 정상상태 때의 동작점에서 서브모델을 구하고, 각 서브모델에 대해 비선형 비례적분미분 제어기를 설계하여 기관의 속도를 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 비선형 제어기는 비선형 함수로 구현되는 3가지 이득을 사용한다. 비선형 제어기의 파라미터는 제어시스템의 목적함수를 최소화하는 관점에서 실수코딩 유전자알고리즘으로 동조한다. 제안한 방법은 가스터빈 기관에 적용하고 시뮬레이션을 실시하여 그 유효성을 확인한다.

A Macroscopic combination of two or more distinct materials is commonly referred to as a "Composite Material", having been designed mechanically and chemically superior in function and characteristic than its individual constituent materials. Composite materials are used not only for aerospace and military, but also heavily used in boat/ship building and general composite industries which we are seeing increasingly more. Regardless of the various applications for composite materials, the industry is still limited and requires better fabrication technology and methodology in order to expand and grow. An example of this is that the majority of fabrication facilities nearby still use an antiquated wet lay-up process where fabrication still requires manual hand labor in a 3D environment impeding productivity of composite product design advancement. As an expert in the advanced composites field, I have developed fabrication skills with the use of machinery based on my past composite experience. In autumn 2011, the Korea government confirmed to fund my project. It is the development of a composite sanding machine. I began development of this semi-robotic prototype beginning in 2009. It has possibilities of replacing or augmenting the exhaustive and difficult jobs performed by human hands, such as sanding, grinding, blasting, and polishing in most often, very awkward conditions, and is also will boost productivity, improve surface quality, cut abrasive costs, eliminate vibration injuries, and protect workers from exposure to dust and airborne contamination. Ease of control and operation of the equipment in or outside of the sanding room is a key benefit to end-users. It will prove to be much more economical than normal robotics and minimize errors that commonly occur in factories. The key components and their technologies are a 360 degree rotational shoulder and a wrist that is controlled under PLC controller and joystick manual mode. Development on both of the key modules is complete and are now operational. The Korean government fund boosted my development and I expect to complete full scale development no later than 3rd quarter 2012. Even with the advantages of composite materials, there is still the need to repair or to maintain composite products with a higher level of technology. I have learned many composite repair skills on composite airframe since many composite fabrication skills including repair, requires training for non aerospace applications. The wind energy market is now requiring much larger blades in order to generate more electrical energy for wind farms. One single blade is commonly 50 meters or longer now. When a wind blade becomes damaged from external forces, on-site repair is required on the columns even under strong wind and freezing temperature conditions. In order to correctly obtain polymerization, the repair must be performed on the damaged area within a very limited time. The use of pre-impregnated glass fabric and heating silicone pad and a hot bonder acting precise heating control are surely required.
