Retardation or delay in fatigue crack growth due to overloads are important for the accurate prediction of fatigue lives of structural materials. In this study, retardation of fatigue crack growth in Al 6061-T6 weldments and heat affected zones (HAZ) after single overload cycle had been investigated. Retardation in both weldments and HAZ was observed. It was concluded that retardation in both weldment and HAZ was greater than in base metal due to microstructural change and crack branching and crack closure were major governing factor in retardation.

This paper presents a floating point unit(FPU) with 3 stages for a 3D graphics shader engine. It targeted to accelerate 3D graphics in portable device environments. In order to design a balanced architecture for a shader engine, we analyzed shader assembly instructions and estimated the performance of FPU with the method we propose. The proposed unit handles 4-dimensional data through separated two paths that are lead to general operation module and special function module. The proposed FPU is compiled as a form of the cascade FPU with 3 stages to efficiently handle a matrix operation with relatively low hardware overhead. Except some complex instructions that are executed using macro instructions, all instructions complete an operation in a single instruction cycle at 100MHz frequency. A special function module performs all operations in a single clock cycle using the Newton Raphson method with the look-up table.

Invertible functions with a single cycle property have many cryptographic applications. The main context in which we study them in this paper is pseudo random generation and stream ciphers. In some cryptographic applications we need a generator which generates binary sequences of period long enough. A common way to increase the size of the state and extend the period of a generator is to run in parallel and combine the outputs of several generators with different period. In this paper we will characterize a secure quadratic polynomial on $\mathbb{Z}_{2^n}$, which generates a binary sequence of period long enough and without consecutive elements.

Effect of coulomb friction and backlash on the single loop position control has been studied for the precision position control. We have showed the limit cycle on the single loop system which used a ball screw that had the backlash. Also, we have made an inner loop with a classical velocity and torque controller which was forcing the current of d axis to be zero by using a permanent-magnet synchronous motor and composed the outer loop with linear encoder for sensing a position of the loader. Also, we have used least squares fit(LSF) observer for reducing noise when we got velocity from position outputs. We have shown a good result by using the dual loop through simulation and experiment.

The purpose of this paper is to study the impact of concentrated nonlinearities, freeplays, on the aeroelastic behaviors of single- and double-folded control fins. The nonlinearities may cause limit cycle oscillation(LCO) below the linear flutter boundary. The effects of nonlinear hinges on LCO characteristics of the fins are examined as flight condition changes. Nonlinear time-domain flutter analyses are performed, using ZAERO. The results show that the aeroelastic stability boundaries of double-folded fin(DF) are higher than those of the single-folded fin(SF) and the lower hinge freeplay impact more critically on the stability than the upper hinge freeplay of the DF.

Performance extension of the absorption refrigerator with LiBr solution is often faced to operate very close to the crystallization limit. Especially in the development of an air-cooled cycle, the crystallization of working solution in the system is a very difficult problem to overcome. This paper describes the cycle of hot water driven absorption system using a new working absorption solution instead of LiBr solution to improve the efficiency. In this study, we found out the characteristics of new working absorption solution through the cycle simulation and compared LiBr solution to evaluate. The effect of cooling water temperature, weak solution flow rate, hot water temperature and hot water flow rate were also examined. The COP is increased 22% higher in the case of LiBr＋Li1＋LiC1＋LiNO$_3$＋$H_2O$, 2% LiBr＋HO(CH$_2$)$_3$OH＋$H_2O$ than that of LiBr solution for the same operation condition.

In this paper, digital peak current mode control for single phase H-bridge inverters is developed and implemented. The digital peak current mode control is achieved by directly controlling the PWM signals by cycle-by-cycle current limitation. Unlike the DC-DC converter where the output voltage always remains in the positive region, the output of DC-AC inverter flips from positive to negative region continuously. Therefore, when the inverter operates in negative region, the control should be changed to valley current mode control. Thus, a novel control logic circuit is required for the function and need to be analyzed for the hardware to track the sinusoidal reference in both regions. The problem of sub-harmonic instability which is inherent with peak current mode control is also addressed, and then proposes the digital slope compensation in constant-sloped external ramp to suppress the oscillation. For unipolar PWM switching method, an adaptive slope compensation in digital manner is also proposed. In this paper, the operating principles and design guidelines of the proposed scheme are presented, along with the performance analysis and numerical simulation. Also, a 200W inverter hardware prototype has been implemented for experimental verification of the proposed controller scheme.

A two degree-of-freedom model of suspended cables is studied for forced resonant response. The method of averaging is used to obtain first-order approximations to the response of the system. A bifurcation analysis of the averaged system is performed in the case of 2-to-1 internal resonance. Nonlinear coupled-mode motions are found to bifurcate from single-mode responses and further bifurcate to limit cycle motions via Hopf bifurcations. The limit cycle solutions undergo period doubling bifurcations to chaos.

This paper deals with a single-facility multiproduction model concerning the basic cyclic scheduling. The aim is to obtain the production order of each product in a cycle and the cycle frequency for minimizing the setup costs and inventory carrying costs of all products. The problem is formulated by LP and it shows that the optimal solution derived dominates the solution of non-cyclic scheduling model on some conditions.

At rotating machinery, Many factors had caused vibration. especially one of the major factor is mass unbalance. A sort of mass unbalance are followings; Static, Coupling, Single and Dynamic. In this paper, We had investigated abnormal vibration due to mass unbalance that changed phase whenever starting of steam Turbine at Combined Cycle.
