The accuracy in maneuvering target tracking using multiple models is caused by the suitability of each target motion model to be used. The interacting multiple model (IMM) algorithm and the adaptive IMM (AIMM) algorithm require the predefined sub-models and the predetermined acceleration intervals, respectively, in consideration of the properties of maneuvers in order to construct multiple models. In this paper, to solve these problems intelligently, a genetic algorithm (GA) based-IMM method using fuzzy logic is proposed. In the proposed method, the acceleration input is regarded as an additive noise and a sub-model is represented as a set of fuzzy rules to model the time-varying variances of the process noises of a new piecewise constant white acceleration model. The proposed method is compared with the AIMM algorithm in simulations.

In order to analyze the influence of the noise on a cross-well traveltime tomography to detect a small scale low velocity body in a homogeneous medium, the first arrival travel times were computed one a tunnel model by a finite-difference ray tracing scheme. Three different types and four different intensity levels of white noises were added to the computed first arrival travel times, and velocity tomograms were constructed using an iterative inversion method (SIRT). Tomograms with the noise intensity up to 10% of the maximum traveltime delay in the tunnel model, showed the exact location of the tunnel. However, the velocity shown at the tunnel location was not close to air velocity but only slightly less than the velocity of the background medium. The additive random noise showed significantly less degree of influence on the resulting tomogram than the source- and receiver consistent noise.

The human auditory system has been shown to posses remarkable abilities in the localization and tracking of sound sources. The localization is the result of processing two primary acoustics cues. These are the interaural time difference(ITD) cues and interaural intensity difference(IID) cues at the two ears. In this paper, we propose TEPILD(Time Energy Previous Integration Location Detector) model. TEPILD model is constructed with time function generator, energy function generator, previous location generator and azimuth detector. Time function generator is to process ITD and energy function generator is to process IID. Total average accuracy rate is 99.2%. These result are encouraging and show that proposed model can be applied to the sound source location detector.

In this paper, an experimental verification of system identification technique for constructing finite element model is conducted for a three-story test structure equipped with an active mass driver (AMD). Twenty Gaussian white noises were used as the input for AMD, and the corresponding accelerations of each floor are measured. Then, the complex frequency response function (FRF) for the input, the force induced by the AMD, was obtained and subsequently, the Markov parameters and system matrices were estimated. The magnitudes as well as phase of experimentally obtained FRFs match well with those of analytically obtained FRFs.

In this study a conventional rubber mount and a new form of base isolator made of steel spring coated with natural and articial rubber were manufactured and tested on a shaking table to investigate the capacity of reducing the vertical vibration of a building induced by subway train. The model structure used in the test is a 1/4 scaled steel structure, and a white noise input and train vibration records were used to check the effectiveness of the isolators. According to the results all three types of isolators turned out to perform effectively in reducing the acceleration and the natural rubber-coated one is ranked best among the isolators. However the vertical displacement of the model is increased due to the instolation of the bearings, and the safty against the lateral load induced by earthquake ground motion should be provided to be able to apply the system to the real buildings.

Called VISTA (Variable-stability In-flight Simulator Test Aircraft), the one-of-a-kind NF-l6D has a simulation system that can mimic several aircraft. Though housed in an F-l6 Fighting Falcon airframe, VISTA can also act like the F-15 Eagle or the Navy's F-14 Tomcat. More importantly, such flexibility allows for improved training and consolidation of some sorties. Consequently USAF Test Pilot School students will have an opportunity to learn how to test future integrated cockpits. In this paper we will use the multiple model adaptive estimation (MMAE) and the multiple model adaptive controller (MMAC) techniques to model the aircraft's flight control system containing the longitudinal and lateral-directional axes. Single and dual actuator and sensor failures will also be included in the simulation. White Gaussian noise will be included to simulate the effects of atmospheric disturbances.

The optimal design problem for increasing dynamic stiffness using hybrid model which composed of original detailed BIW(body in white) and impinged beam elements is investigated. Using the characteristics of the beam elements and design sensitivity analysis this approach utilizes an optimization technique to determine the optimal section properties of beam elements. The constraint is to increase the first natural frequency by five percent compared with original one. The results show that the first torsion and bending natural frequencies are increased by five percent using hybrid model and optimization. These results indicate that this optimization method can be employed to enhance the dynamic stiffness of vehicle body structure in design concept stage.

Designing a feedback controller requires a dynamic model of the process to be controlled. But the GMA welding process models have not been fully developed for many reasons such as complexity of the welding process and lack of reliable sensors. Because of the complexity of the welding system, we obtained a dynamic model for control using system identification routines, rather than derived a model from fundamental physical laws. The controller was designed based on the experimentally derived linear dynamic model of the welding process. In order to demonstrate application of the designed controller, the simulation was carried out.

We propose a filter design method to suppress the effect of gyroscope mixed random errors at INS system level. It is based on the result that mixed random errors can be represented by a single equivalent ARMA model. At first step, the time difference of equivalent ARMA process is performed, which consider the characteristic of indirect feedback Kalman filter used in INS filter. Next, a state space conversion of time differenced ARMA model is achieved. If the order of AR is greater than that of MA, the controllable or observable canonical form is used. Otherwise, we introduce the state equation of which the state variable is composed of the ARMA model output and several step ahead predicts of that. At final step, a complete form state equation is presented. The simulation results shows that the proposed method gives less transient error and better convergence compared to the conventional filter which assume the mixed random errors as white noise.
