With the trend towards welding automation and robozation, mathematical models for studying the influence of various parameters on the weld bead geometry in Gas Metal Arc(GMA) welding process are required. The results of bead on plate welds deposited using the GMA welding process has enabled mathematical relationships to be developed that model the weld bead geometry. Experimental results were compared to outputs obtained using existing formulae that correlate process input variables to output parameters and subsequent modelling was performed in order to better predict the output of the GMA welding process. The aim of this work was to explain the relationships between GMA welding variables and weld bead geometry and thus, be able to predict input weld bead size. The relationships can be usefully employed for open loop process control and also for adaptive control provided that dynamic sensing of process output is performed.

An improved RRS (Reactor Regulating System) logic is implemented in this work using systems engineering approach along with GA (Genetic Algorithm) deemed as providing an optimal solution to a given system. The current system works desirably and has been contributed to the safe and stable NPP operation. However, during the ascent and decent section of the reactor power, the RRS output reveals a relatively high steady state error and the output also carries a considerable level of overshoot. In an attempt to consolidate conservatism and minimize the error, this research proposes applying genetic algorithm to RRS and suggests reconfiguring the system. Prior to the use of GA, reverse-engineering is implemented to build a Simulink-based RRS model and re-engineering is followed to apply the GA and to produce a newly-configured RRS generating an output that has a reduced steady state error and diminished overshoot level.

In this work, a Voltage-to-Frequency Converter.(VFC) in which the output frequency is proportional to the input voltage is proposed. To obtain temperature stable characteristics the VFC is designed by using two bandgap references. The difference between simulated and calculated values is less than about 5% in output characteristics. In the VFC using BiCMOS the temperature variation of sample output frequencies is less than $\pm$0.5% in the temperature range -$25^{\circ}C$ to 75$^{\circ}C$. And the CMOS VFC has error less than $\pm$0.8% in the temperature range -$25^{\circ}C$ to 75'$^{\circ}C$.

This work is the attempt to give qualitative explanations to complex magnetic phenomena which are observed in the previously proposed magnetostrictive sensor capable of ultrasonic waves and rotational speed measurement. The law of approach is adopted as analysis tool in order to account for some extraordinary output patterns and proved to be effective. The distance between the anhysteretic curve current magnetic state and the variation of anhysteretic curve by stress mainly determine the sensor output shapes and their uniqueness. It is also experimentally verified that the precisely determined bias magnetic field strength can not only remove the unusual output parts but also maximize its sensitivity.

For a satellite data communication, the technology of frame synchronization is widely used between a sender and a receiver. Last year, we suggested zero-loss frame synchronization [1] using pattern search and using bits threshold search algorithm that is based on SIMD technology [2,3]. This algorithm could solve both of hardware and software drawbacks, which are frame loss and low processing performance. However, this algorithm didn't optimize the processing of output data, synchronized data, which caused overhead to the memory allocation and the memory copy. Consequently, the performance of the frame synchronizer application was degraded. In this paper, we enhance previous work using a circular buffer in order to optimize the output data processing. The performance comparison with the previous algorithm shows that the enhanced proposed approach dramatically outperforms in the output data processing speed.

This paper aims to study and design of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Machine using Isopentane as working fluid expanding through Tesla turbine. The study on ORC machine expanding through Tesla turbine has result on the efficiency of Tesla turbine. In addition, Thermodynamics theory on isentropic efficiency proved to be a successful method for overcoming the difficulties associated with the determination of very low torque at very high angular speed. By using an inexpensive experiment device and a simple method, the angular acceleration method, for measuring output torque and power in a Tesla turbine is able to predict a tendency of output work. The experiments using two Tesla turbine sizes, the first size is 1.6 bigger than the second one. In comparison with the first size, the tesla turbine can produce power output more than 62% of the second size. Further study on the machine can be developed throughout the county due to its low cost and efficiency.

Multi-code CDMA is an appropriate scheme for transmitting high rate data. However, dynamic range of the signal is large, and power amplifier with good linearity is required. Code select CDMA (CS/CDMA) is a variation of multi-code CDMA scheme that ensures constant amplitude transmission. In CS/CDMA input data selects multiple orthogonal codes, and sum of these selected codes are MPSK modulated to convert multi-level symbol into different carrier phases. CS/CDMA system employs level clipping to limit the number of levels at the output symbol to avoid hish density of signal constellation. In our previous work we showed that by encoding input data of CS/CDMA amplitude of the output symbol can be made constant. With this coding scheme, level clipping is not necessary and the output signal can be BPSK modulated for transmission. In this paper we show that the constant amplitude coded(CA-) CS/CDMA transmitter can be implemented using only logic gates, and the hardware complexity is very low. In the proposed transmitter architecture there is no apparent redundant encoder block which plays a major role in the constant amplitude coded CS/CDMA.

This work deals with the synthesis of discrete-time nonlinear controller for input time-delay existing nonlinear system and proposes a new effective method to compensate the influence of input time-delay. The controller is synthesised by using input/output linearization. Under the circumstance that input time-delay exist, controller have to produce future value that will be needed for system. On account of this reason described, a weighted average predictor of combined states is adopted. Using the discretization via Euler method, numerical simulations about Van der Pol system are performed to evaluate performance of the proposed method.

The negative output elementary Luo converter is a newly developed DC-DC converter. Due to the time-varying and switching nature of the above converter, its dynamic behavior becomes highly non-linear. Conventional controllers are incapable of providing good dynamic performance for such a converter and, hence, a neural network is utilized as a controller in this work. The performance of the chosen Luo converter using PI versus neuro controls is compared under load and line disturbances using MATLAB and TMS320F2407 DSP. The results validate the superiority of the developed neuro controller.

This paper proposes stability evaluation of DC/DC boost converters based on output impedance in harmonic transfer function matrix considering line impedance and cascaded voltage and current control loops. The harmonic state-space (HSS) model of converter and controller is developed to obtain the harmonic transfer function matrix of closed-loop output impedance. This work is useful for impedance-based stability analysis of converters connected to DC power systems.
