In this paper, we present a co-design methodology of dynamic optimal network-bandwidth allocation (ONBA) and adaptive control for networked control systems (NCSs) to optimize overall control performance and reduce total network-bandwidth usage. The proposed dynamic co-design strategy integrates adaptive feedback control with real-time scheduling. As part of this co-design methodology, a "closed-loop" ONBA algorithm for NCSs with communication constraints is presented. Network-bandwidth is dynamically assigned to each control loop according to the quality of performance (QoP) information of each control loop. As another part of the co-design methodology, a network quality of service (QoS)-adaptive control design approach is also presented. The idea is based on calculating new control values with reference to the network QoS parameters such as time delays and packet losses measured online. Simulation results show that this co-design approach significantly improves overall control performance and utilizes less bandwidth compared to static strategies.

This paper presents an LMI-based method to design a integral sliding mode controller for a class of uncertain systems. Using LMIs we derive an existence condition of a sliding surface. And we give a switching feedback control law. Our method is a generalization of the previous integral sliding mode control design methods. Since our method is based on LMIs, it gives design flexibility for combining various useful design criteria that can be captured in the LMI-based formulation.

In this paper, we design a multirate controller for a given multirate sampled-data system which has a periodic output measurement scheme. A sufficient condition for maintaining observability in multirate sampled-data systems is given first. The design strategy for disturbance rejection is proposed. The proposed controller has IMC structure, and can be deomposed into a disturbance estimator and the inverse of fast plants.

In this paper, we propose a 7-phase life cycle model which applies to Computer Integrated Manufacturing systems. The model emphasizes product design and manufacturing design activities of CIM to secure the critical success factors of CIM systems such as high quality, adaptability, productivity, and flexibility. It is argued that the product design aspect would be divided into three phases-conceptual design, embodiment design, and detialed design. The conceptual design phase is to build a conceptual model of the product based on requirements and specifications which reflect "the voice of the customer". THe embodiment design phase utilizes specific design tools such as DFM, CAE, and CAD, and results in a concrete model of the product and parts. The detailed design phase is to crete a working prototype of the product and design tools such as DFA. CAD and CAM are employed in this phase. The output of the product design activity is to be the input for the manufacturing design activity. Using the proposed model, one can effectively and efficiently manufacture a high-quality, low-cost product with short delivery time, and above all achieve customer'ssatisfaction.isfaction.

Every year new tall buildings are being conceived, designed, and built with new schemes. Thus it is important to explore the factors that affect tall building design. Thus it is important to explore the tall building design factors. The planning and design of tall buildings require different criteria than those that exist in regular size buildings. Tall buildings are uniquely expressed by their structural systems where exterior esthetic and requirements of space drive the form and composition of the structural systems. Therefore the exploration of design factors is the key to achieve optimum building systems. Optimization as mentioned here is associated with the efficiency of the different building systems. To achieve an optimal system, there is a need for an understanding of the factors that affect on overall tall building design such as planning module, building function, lease span, floor-to-floor-height, building height (aspect ratio), structural system, environmental systems. In this paper a statistical approach will be used and will be based on data collected from the practice through a rigorous survey taken. This information is tabulated and analyzed. The major target of investigation will be lease span related to space requirement in the tall building planning. Factors related to lease spans, such as function, floor-to-floor height, planning module, building height, overall plan dimension, and plan ratio (building geometry), will be looked at carefully. IN conclusion, this approach of optimization can introduce a preliminary design guideline for tall building projects. The purpose of the paper should shed some light on the optimum tall building design criteria.

Studies on the control of inverted pendulum type systems have been widely reported. This is because this type of system is a typical complex nonlinear system and may be a good model to verify the performance of a proposed control system. In this paper, we propose the design of two fuzzy logic control systems for the control of a Segway mobile robot which is an inverted pendulum type system. We first introduce a dynamic model of the Segway mobile robot and then analyze the system. We then propose the design of the fuzzy logic control system, which shows good performance for the control of any nonlinear system. In this paper, we here design two fuzzy logic control systems for the position and balance control of the Segway mobile robot. We demonstrate their usefulness through simulation examples. We also note the possibility of simplifying the design process and reducing the computational complexity. This possibility is the result of the skew symmetric property of the fuzzy rule tables of the system.

This paper describes a design method of compensators for decentralized control systems. Decentralized control problem is convenient to design multi-variable control systems and formulated as a series of independent designs. The proposed design method is composed of some steps, which is sequentially to close loop of the system diagonalized by regarding interactive subsystem as perturbation for current loop. So, on the basis of H$_{\infty}$ control theory, decentralized controllers are designed considering robust stability for diagonal systems with perturbations. A numerical example shows that the proposed design method is effective for multivariable control systems..

In this paper, we consider the H$_2$(or guaranteed cost control) and H$_{\infty}$ controller design methods for singular(or descriptor) systems with input time delay. Also, a mixed H$_2$and H$_{\infty}$ controller design algorithm is treated by combination of the proposed H$_2$and H$_{\infty}$ controller design method. The sufficient conditions for the existence of controllers and controller design methods are introduced at each Lemma and Theorem. Furthermore, we present optimization problems to get the upper bound of performance measures. The proposed methods are checked by examples.

A method for performing kinematic design sensitivity analysis of vehicle suspension systems is presented. For modeling of vehicle suspensions, the multibody dynamic formulation is adopted, where suspensions are assumed as combination of rigid bodies and ideal frictionless joints. In a relative joint coordinate setting, kinematic constraint equations are obtained by imposing cut-joints that transform closed-loop shape suspension systems into open-loop systems. By directly differentiating the constraint equations with respect to kinematic design variables, such as length of bodies, notion axis, etc., sensitivity equations are derived. By solving the sensitivity equations, sensitivity of static design factors that can be used for design improvement, can be obtained. The validity and usefulness of the method are demonstrated through an example where kinematic sensitivity analysis of a MacPherson strut suspension of performed.
