In this paper, deployment dynamics of large-scale flexible solar arrays with deployable mast is investigated. The adopted solar array system is introduced firstly, then kinematic description and kinematic constraint equations are deduced, and finally, dynamics equation of the system is established by the Jourdain velocity variation principle and a new method to deal with topology changes of the deployable mast is introduced. The dynamic behavior of the system is studied in detail. Simulation results indicate that the proposed model is effective to describe the deployment dynamics of the solar arrays and that the introduced method is applicable for topology changes.

In this paper, a refined exponential shear deformation beam theory is developed for bending analysis of functionally graded beams. The theory account for parabolic variation of transverse shear strain through the depth of the beam and satisfies the zero traction boundary conditions on the surfaces of the beam without using shear correction factors. Contrary to the others refined theories elaborated, where the stretching effect is neglected, in the current investigation this so-called "stretching effect" is taken into consideration. The material properties of the functionally graded beam are assumed to vary according to power law distribution of the volume fraction of the constituents. Based on the present shear deformation beam theory, the equilibrium equations are derived from the principle of virtual displacements. Analytical solutions for static are obtained. Numerical examples are presented to verify the accuracy of the present theory.

In this article, static analysis of a magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) beam subjected to various thermal loading and boundary conditions has been investigated. Influence of pyroeffects (pyroelectric and pyromagnetic) on the direct quantities (displacements and the potentials) of the MEE beam under different boundary conditions is studied. The finite element (FE) formulation of the MEE beam is developed using the total potential energy principle and the constitutive equations of the MEE material taking into account the coupling between elastic, electric, magnetic and thermal properties. Using the Maxwell electrostatic and electromagnetic relations, variation of stresses, displacements, electric and magnetic potentials along the length of the MEE beam are investigated. Effect of volume fractions, aspect ratio and boundary conditions on the direct quantities in thermal environment has been determined. The present investigation may be useful in design and analysis of magnetoelectroelastic smart structures and sensor applications.

It is well known that solid-state devices like inverter and converter made by transistor and other semi-conductors are widely used for the purpose of motor speed control in industrial fields. This paper is devoted primarily to a study of Trial Manufacturing of Solid-state Frequency Converter by means of single-phase bridge-type SCR inverter. The principle of the trial product belongs to AC-DC-AC conversion system. The voltage to be impressed to the motor in case of speed control by frequency conversion method is necessary to be proportional to frequency. It also requires the frequency and voltage are independent to hte load variation. In order to meet above requests required to motor speed control., the trial product introduced the open loop system in the frequency setting and closed loop system in the voltage setting. The trial product showed the favorable performance characteristics in speed control of singlephase fractional horsepower motor from 45HZ through 80HZ.

In this paper, we have proposed a principle to design wideband, low dispersion and temperature stabilized slow light structure in slotted photonic crystal waveguide (SPCW). The infiltration of the silicon photonic crystal with polymer will enhance the slow light and increase the group index, whereas the different signs of thermo-optic coefficients of polymer and silicon make the proposed structure stable on temperature variation over $60^{\circ}C$ and improves the group index-bandwidth products of the designed structure. The SPCW structure is modified to maximize the slow light effect and minimize the dependence of the group index and hence the group velocity dispersion to temperature.

In the present study, irregular disturbances to ship dynamics is proposed, where irregular disturbances implying irregular wave and the fluctuating component of wind for the evaluation of automatic steering system of ship in following seas. Prediction method based on the principle of linear superposition. Irregular wave disturbances in following seas is calculated by frequency variation method. The mathematical model of each element of an automatic steering system is derived, which takes account of a few non-linear mechanisms. PD(Proportional-Derivative) controller and low-pass filter with a weather adjustment are adopted to modelling the characteristics of an autopilot. Performance index is introduced from the viewpoint of energy saving, which derived from the concept of energy loss on ship propulsion. Finally, the present methods are applied to two typical types of ship ; an ore carrier and a fishing boat. The various effects of control constants of autopilot on propulsive energy loss are investigated

This paper discusses the basic principle of vector control applied to induction motors. A indirect strategy for impressed stator currents control is used for system modeling. IRFOC for induction motor was modelled using "Matlab with Simulink" IRFOC be applied to 15kW induction motor is simulated in different conditions; step changes in torque at a fixed reference speed, and cyclic change of speed reference. Simulation result considering the variation of stator, rotor resistance includes the response of speed, torque and rotor d-q fluxes.

Illumination variation is the most significant factor affecting face recognition rate. In this paper, we propose adaptive smoothing based on combined most significant bit (CMSB) - plane and local entropy for robust face recognition in varying illumination. Illumination normalization is achieved based on Retinex method. The proposed method has been evaluated based on the CMU PIE database by using Principle Component Analysis (PCA).

Earlier models of card vending machines have generally motion drives with high cost and large size. However, current trend in card vending machines requires low-cost, compact-sized and readily installable motion drives. This paper shows the operational principle of the motion drive of a card vending machine and then presents the performance test results of the motion drive with improved mechanisms proposed in the paper. The results show that the proposed mechanism is valid and improves the card dispensing performance. The proposed model in the paper is accepted and introduced in the actual production line.

This paper presents a robust control of a smart flexible structure featured by a piezofilm actuator characterizing its light weght and quick response time. A mathematical governing equation for the proposed structure is derived by employing Hamilton's principle and a state space control model is subsequentrly obtained through modal analysis. Uncertain system parameters such as frequency variation are included in the control model. A sliding mode control theroy thich has inherent robustness to systme uncertainties is adopted to design a tracking controller for the peizofilm actuator. Using the output informaiton from the tip deflection sensor, a full-order observer is constructed ot estimate state variables for the system. Tracking performances for desired trajectories of sinusoidal amd step functions are evaluated by undertaking both simulation and experimental works.
