  • In-situ photopolymerization of alkyl acrylate monomers in the presence of a nematic fluid provides a cellular matrix of liquid crystalline droplets in which the chemical structure of the encapsulating polymer exerts control over the alignment (anchoring) of the liquid crystalline molecules. Control is obtained by variation of the alkyl side chains and through copolymerization of two dissimilar monofunctional acrylates. Two monofunctional acrylates with opposing tendencies on copolymerization provide control over the tunability of anchoring over a wide temperature range. Using various acrylates we show that a uniform vertical alignment can be achieved over a large area. Utilizing this technique and a nematic with negative dielectric anisotropy, we have fabricated highly flexible liquid crytal based devices, with high contrast and fast response time, without using any alignment layer.

  • Cerebellar Model Arithmetic Controller(CMAC) has been introduced as an adaptive control function generator. CMAC computes control functions referring to a distributed memory table storing functional values rather than by solving equations analytically or numerically. CMAC has a unique mapping structure as a coarse coding and supervisory delta-rule learning property. In this paper, learning aspects and a convergence of the CMAC were investigated. The efficient training algorithms were developed to overcome the limitations caused by the conventional maximum error correction training and to eliminate the accumulated learning error caused by a sequential node training. A nonlinear function generator and a motion generator for a two d. o. f. manipulator were simulated. The efficiency of the various learning algorithms was demonstrated through the cpu time used and the convergence of the rms and maximum errors accumulated during a learning process; A generalization property and a learning effect due to the various gains were simulated. A uniform quantizing method was applied to cope with various ranges of input variables efficiently.

  • 결합된 시변 상미분 방정식의 해외 점근적 성질에 관한 연구이다. 리아프노프 직접 방법에 의하면 평등 안정성(uniform stability)만 얻어졌을 경우이지만, 추가적으로 상태 벡터 중 일부가 0으로 점근적 수렴함을 보이는데 있다. 얻어진 결과는 특히 불변원리(invariance principle)가 성립하지 않는 시변 시스템에 유용하다.

  • This paper develops a design methodology of a decentralized fuzzy load-frequency controller for a large-scale nonlinear power system with valve position limits on governors. The concerned system is locally exactly modeled in Takagi-Sugeno's form. Sufficient design condition for uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system is derived based on the overlapping decomposition. Convergence of all incremental frequency deviations to zero is also investigated. A simulation result is provided to visualize the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

  • In case of Resin Transfer Molding(RTM) process, 'race-track' effects and non-uniform fiber volume fraction may cause undesirable resin flow pattern and thus result in dry spots, which affect the mechanical properties of the finished parts. In this study, a real time RTM control strategy to prevent these unfavorable effects is proposed. The control strategy consists of two 'stages' depending on the extent the resin front has reached. Through numerical simulations and experiments, the validity of the proposed scheme is demonstrated. The results show that the proposed scheme is effective in reducing the void formation during RTM mold filling.

  • This paper presents a design method for the robust flight controller of a hyghly maneuvering aircraft subject to C.G variation. This method is based on LMI(Linear Matrix ZInequality) pole-placement design methodology for the polytopic models. Simulation results show that the proposed LMI-based pole-placement design methodology robustly yields uniform performance with adequate Flying Qualities (FQ) over the entire CG variation range.

  • This paper deals with an allocation strategy for the resources of direct load control program, which is considered the operating states in power systems. The existing approaches, load shedding priority algorithm, curtailment payback based algorithm and mixed curtailment algorithm, are based on the uniform allocation strategy. These approaches are not taken into account the operating states in power systems. So, under the critical operating condition, direct load control resource is evaluated by introducing the congestion factor.

  • This work describes a hardware implementation of a precision image tracking system which employs a CCD camera mounted on pan/tilt device. Unknown translation between two successive images of a moving object is estimated by using a generalized least-squares method. Estimated position error obtained by the tracking algorithm is used to drive DC motors built in the pan/tilt device for the camera to follow the image. An experimental result shows a sub-resolution tracking error for a image moving with a uniform velocity.

  • This paper presents machine learning methods using Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) to analyze optimal damper distribution for structural vibration control. Regarding different building structures, a genetic algorithm based optimization method is used to determine optimal damper distributions that are further used as training samples. The structural features, the objective function, the number of dampers, etc. are used as input features, and the distribution of dampers is taken as an output result. In the case of a few number of damper distributions, multi-class prediction can be performed using SVM and MLP respectively. Moreover, MLP can be used for regression prediction in the case where the distribution scheme is uncountable. After suitable post-processing, good results can be obtained. Numerical results show that the proposed method can obtain the optimized damper distributions for different structures under different objective functions, which achieves better control effect than the traditional uniform distribution and greatly improves the optimization efficiency.

  • A control system using fuzzy logic for a large capacity continuous dryer has been developed in order to minimize the damage of rice quality. The system has been verified in the case of 17% of object moisture content. With the initial input moisture contents of 20.46%(wb), 20.96%(wb) and 18.98%(wb), the final moisture contents of 17.99%(wb), 17.6%(wb) and 17.23%(wb) are obtained, respectively. The results show that the system controls the moisture content with the maximum error of 0.99% of the object moisture content.
