  • To realize artificial device with sensing ability of the human skin, a mono-material tactile sensor with three sensing functions made of some elastic thin electro-conductive rubber sheet with eight latticed patch elements is proposed. This trial sensor provides the information of three kinds of model material characteristics such as thermal property, hardness property and the surface situation of materials by setting up three kinds of surface models as test materials. It can be finally expected to estimate unknown model materials by analyzing the data of the sensor.

  • The actuator saturation defects the countour control performance of mechatronics servo systems. In this paper, trajectory generation of contour control of the mechatronics servo system is developed taking into account of the constraints of the torque in the system. By using the generated trajectory, the torque constraint and assigned working accuracy are satisfied and the accurate contour control performance is achieved.

  • We proposed a new variable sampling rate model which expresses the phenomena with both rapid and slow components. A method for determining the variable sampling rate and the older of the time series model was explained. The proposed variable sampling rate model was evaluated based oil an information criterion(AIC). Tile variable sampling rate model brought smaller an information criterion than one of a constant sampling rate model of conventional type, and was proved to be effective as a prediction model of the system with both rapid and slow components.

  • This paper addresses a method for nonlinear controller construction for a general nonlinear system with the separation of controller construction and manipulated values generation. The nonlinear system model is firstly expressed with the coefficients of state-depended representation. The nonlinear control is designed without any approximation based on the model with state-depended representation. At the stage of controller implementation for the nonlinear system, the manipulated values are calculated accurately by use of an algorithm of the numerical analysis. The numerical error for calculating the manipulated value can be reduced to zero by selecting the sampling interval being a small val...

  • Streetlights are very necessary for residents also in traditional towns, although they were originally unequipped and their installation were not well-considered for traditional values of the towns. This research attempts to reveal problems on a traditional area as a fundamental study for installation of streetlights in traditional towns.

  • A multifunctional sensor is designed to measure viscosity, cleanness, temperature and capacitance of engine oil to make a clear decision on its condition. The simple structure helps easy fabrication and low cost while measuring four parameters by one sensor. The operation is described theoretically and is supported by experimental data. A fuzzy based algorithm to fuse the four kinds of data from multi-functional sensor in order to make a decision on the best time to change the oil is proposed.

  • In order to clarify the heat annealing process for Magnesium Oxide (MgO), cathodoluminescent (CL) analysis was performed. Our results in the present work prove that the heat annealing has effects on not only removing water from the surface of MgO, but also increasing density of O and Mg defect pairs. It is the first work that the influence of annealing process on physical properties of the vacuum evaporated MgO thin films by using CL spectra.

  • In order to clarify the features of tip leakage vortex near blade tip region in a half-ducted axial fan with large bellmouth, the experimental investigation was carried out using a 2-dimensional LDV system. Three sizes of tip clearance (TC) were tested: those sizes were 1mm (0.55% of blade chord length at blade tip), 2mm (1.11% of blade chord length at blade tip) and 4mm (2.22% of blade chord length at blade tip), and those were shown as TC=1mm, TC=2mm and TC=4mm, respectively. Fan characteristic tests and the velocity field measurements were done for each TC. Pressure - flow-rate characteristics and two-dimensional velocity vector maps were shown. The vortex trace and the vortex intensity distribution were also illustrated. As a result, a large difference on the pressure - flow-rate characteristics did not exist for three tip clearance sizes. In case of TC=4mm, the tip leakage vortex was outflow to downstream of rotor was not confirmed at the small and reference flow-rate conditions. Only at the large flow-rate condition, its outflow to downstream of rotor existed. In case of TC=2mm, overall vortex behaviors were almost the same ones in case of TC=4mm. However, the vortex trace inclined toward more tangential direction. In case of TC=1mm, the clear vortex was not observed for all flow-rate conditions.

  • Antitumor polyacetylenlc alcohol, panaxytriol (Ci7 H2603), was isolated and purified from a Powder of the root of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. Panaxytriol Possesses unusual Property of being soluble in both water and organic solvents. Panaxytriol inhibited the growth of various kinds of human cultured cell lines in dose-dependent fashion in vitro. The in vivo effects of panaxytriol were tested against C57BU6 mice transplanted with Bl6 melanomas. Panaxytriol (8 and 40 mg/kg) administered intramuscularly (im) produced significant tumor growth delays in mice. Although a detailed mechanism of growth inhibition by panaxytriol is unknown, preliminary results appear to implicate a surface membrane site of action. And its action seems to be more dose-dependent than time-dependent. Finally, panaxytriol pharmacokinetics was evaluated in mice given single 8 mgrkg doses intraperitoneally(ip) or im. Serum panaxytriol content was measured using both tumor growth inhibitory assay and a gas chromatographic method. The maximum serum panaxytriol content after ip and im administration was 35.0 and 1.61 ug/ml respectively. These results indicate that the compound may act as cytotoxic substance even in-patients. Keywords Panax ginseng, panaxytriol, tumor growth inhibition
