This study presents a strategy using the synchronized output regulation method (SOR) for controlling inverters operating in stand-alone and grid-connected modes. From the view point of networked dynamic systems, SOR involves nodes with outputs that are synchronized but also display a desirable wave shape. Under the SOR strategy, the inverter and grid are treated as two nodes that comprise a simple network. These two nodes work independently under the stand-alone mode. An intermediate mode, here is named the synchronization mode, is emphasized because the transition from the stand-alone mode to the grid-connected mode can be dealt as a standard SOR problem. In the grid-connected mode, the inverter operates in an independent way, in which the voltage reference changes for generalized synchronization where its output current satisfies the required power injection. Such a relatively independent design leads to a seamless transfer between operation modes. The closed-loop system is analyzed in the state space on the basis of the output regulation theory, which improves the robustness of the design. Simulations and experiments are performed to verify the proposed control strategy.

In this paper we propose a block-type parallel preconditioner for solving large sparse nonsymmetric linear systems, which we expect to be scalable. It is Multi-Color Block SOR preconditioner, combined with direct sparse matrix solver. For the Laplacian matrix the SOR method is known to have a nondeteriorating rate of convergence when used with Multi-Color ordering. Since most of the time is spent on the diagonal inversion, which is done on each processor, we expect it to be a good scalable preconditioner. We compared it with four other preconditioners, which are ILU(0)-wavefront ordering, ILU(0)-Multi-Color ordering, SPAI(SParse Approximate Inverse), and SSOR preconditiner. Experiments were conducted for the Finite Difference discretizations of two problems with various meshsizes varying up to $1025{\times}1024$. CRAY-T3E with 128 nodes was used. MPI library was used for interprocess communications, The results show that Multi-Color Block SOR is scalabl and gives the best performances.

A circular cylinder is oscillated in th otherwise quiescent viscous fluid. Numerical analysis performed for this problem by using the fourth-order Runge-kutta method for the unsteady Navier-stokes equations. For K(Kelegan-Carpenter''s No.)=5, the flow developed symmetrically, while for K=10, it revealed random patterns. The coefficient of the rms force is overestimated by 20-30% compared with the experimental result.

In this paper we present two preconditioners for solving large sparse linear systems arising from elliptic partial differential equations on massively parallel machines, such as the CM-5. Most massively parallel machines do heavily rely on the message-passing for the interprocessor communications. but according to the current manufacturing standards the cost of communications is very high compared to that of floating point arithmetic computations. Due to this we need an algorithm which minimizes the amount of interprocessor communication on the massively parallel machines. We will show that Block SOR(Successive Over Relaxation) method coupled with the multi-coloring technique is one of such preconditioner on the massively parallel machines, by conducting experiments in the CM-5. Also, we implemented the ADI(Alternation Direction Implicit) method in the CM-5, which has been conventionally one of the most powerful parallel preconditioner. Our experiment shows that Block SOR method coupled with the multi-coloring technique could yield a speedup with 50% efficiency with the range of number of processors form 16 to 512 for a matrix with dimension 512x512. On the other hand, the ADI method shows a very poor performance.

Numerical simulations for various fluid flows require enormous computing time during iterations. In order to solve this problem, several techniques have been proposed. A SOR method is one of the effective methods for solving elliptic equations. However, it is very difficult to find the optimum relaxation factor, the value of this factor for practical problems used to be estimated on the basis of expertise. In this paper, the implication of the relaxation factor are translated into fuzzy control rules on the basis of the expertise of numerical analysers, and fuzzy controller incorporated into a numerical algorithm. From two cases of study, Poisson equation and cavity flow problem, we confirmed the possibility of computational acceleration with fuzzy logic and qualitative reasoning in numerical simulations. Numerical experiments with the fuzzy controller resulted in generating a good performance.

For the three decades, the mold-filling of injection molding process was modeled as Hele-Shaw model. However, this model can not consider the 3D effect. In this paper, numerical simulations of three dimensional mold-filling during the filling phase were performed. The governing equations were discretized by segregated finite element method, which used equal order interpolation for pressure and velocity fields. The iterative linear equation solver (JCG, SOR) was employed for the solution of the momentum and pressure equations. Volume of Fluid (VOF) was employed for the melt front advancement. To check the validity of the numerical results, the results were compared with the experimental ones. The agreements between the experiment and the numerical results were found to be satisfactory.

A two-dimensional numerical analysis progranl, called SOMOS ( simulation of MO5 transistors), has been developed for the simulation of MOSFET's with various channel lengths and bias conditions. The finite difference approximation of the fundamental equa-tions are formulated using Newton's method for Poisson's equation and the divergence theorem for the continuity equation. For the solution of the lincariBed equations, SOR (successive over relaxation) method and Gummel's algorithm have been employed, The total simulation time for oar operating point is varying between 30 sec. and 4 min. on VAX 11/780 depending on bias conditions, The nonuniform mesh was generated and refined automatically to account for various bias values and the potential distributions.

A functional equation relating two involved parameters is obtained, and some convergence conditions for this method are derived. This paper generalizes some foregone results. Numerical examples show that, this method is efficient by suitable choices of the involved parameters.

In this paper, a preconditioned mixed-type splitting iterative method for solving the linear systems Ax = b is presented, where A is a Z-matrix. Then we also obtain some results to show that the rate of convergence of our method is faster than that of the preconditioned AOR (PAOR) iterative method and preconditioned SOR (PSOR) iterative method. Finally, we give one numerical example to illustrate our results.

In this paper, we first propose a fast one-parameter relaxation (FOPR) method with a scaled preconditioner for solving the saddle point problems, and then we present a formula for finding its optimal parameter. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed FOPR method with a scaled preconditioner, numerical experiments are provided by comparing its performance with the existing one or two parameter relaxation methods with optimal parameters such as the SOR-like, the GSOR and the GSSOR methods.
