In this paper, an efficient algorithm to estimate the volume and surface area from ultrasonic imaging and a reconstruction algorithm to generate three-dimensional graphics are presented. The computing efficiency is Improved by using the graph theory and the algorithm to determine proper contour points is performed by applying several tolerances. The search for contour points is limited by the change in curvature in order to provide an efficient search of the minimum cost path. These algorithms are applied to a selected mathematical model of ellipsoid. The results show that the measured value of the volume and surface area for the tolerances of 1.0005, 1.001 and 1.002 approximate to the measured values for the tolerance of 1.000 resulting in small errors. The reconstructed 3-dimensional Images are sparse and consist of larger triangular tiles between two cross sections as tolerance is increased.

Machine tools usually consume more energy in cooling systems than in spindle motors. This is largely because circulation pumps in the cooling systems are continuously powered to measure the temperature of spindle motors. In this paper, energy saving algorithms are proposed, which modify this behavior of the circulation pumps in such a way that the circulation pumps run only when it is likely that the information on the temperature is critical to bang-bang control of compressors in cooling systems. A mathematical model is established that explains heat transfer phenomena near the spindle motors. The power consumptions are measured for individual components in a machine tool, and the parameters that appear in the mathematical model are estimated. Computer simulations are performed with the estimated parameters, and the results are compared with the experimental ones. It turns out that a large amount of energy can be saved by using the proposed method.

Noise can make surrounding environments inferior and deteriorates operation efficiency, and it can bring aural damage as well as give a person psychological stress. Therefore, necessity of study about noise control is increased for better labor conditions and agreeable habitat. In this paper, implementation of active mufflers using active noise control techniques is presented. The LMS algorithm is used for adaptive filter algorithms. Computer simulations and experiments using TMS320C32 digital signal processor have performed to show the effectiveness of a proposed algorithm.

Adaptive control methods are studied for the Satellite to isolate vibration in spite of the nonlinear system dynamics and parameter uncertainties of disturbance. First, a centralized control scheme is developed based on the particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm and feedback theory to automatically tune controller gains. A simulation study of a 3 degree-of-freedom device was conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed control scheme. Next, since a centralized control scheme is hard to construct model dynamics and not goad at performance when controller and systems environment are easily changed, a decentralized control scheme is presented to avoid these defects of the centralized control scheme from the point of view of production and maintenance. It is based on the adaptive control methodologies to find PID controller parameters. Experiment studies were conducted to apply the adaptive control scheme and evaluate the performance of the proposed control scheme with those of the conventional control schemes.

The Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) system is a key component of CNS/ATM recommended by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as the next generation air traffic control system. ADS-B broadcasts identification, positional data, and operation information of an aircraft to other aircraft, ground vehicles and ground stations in the nearby region. This paper explores the ADS-B based trajectory prediction and the conflict detection algorithm. The multiple-model based trajectory prediction algorithm leads accurate predicted conflict probability at a future forecast time. We propose an efficient and accurate algorithm to calculate conflict probability based on approximation of the conflict zone by a set of blocks. The performance of proposed algorithms is demonstrated by a numerical simulation of two aircraft encounter scenarios.

We propose an efficient audio transcoding algorithm that can convert audio streams from terrestrial digital television broadcasting service stations to those for terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting hand-held receivers. The proposed algorithm avoids the complicated psychoacoustic analysis by calculating the scalefactors of the bit-sliced arithmetic coding encoder directly from the signal-to-noise ratio parameters of the AC-3 decoder. The bit-allocation process is also simplified by cascading the nested distortion control loop. Through subjective evaluation, it is shown that the proposed algorithm provides comparable audio quality to tandem coding but it requires much smaller complexity.

This paper describe an intelligent cruise control system for automobile. With the remarkable numerical increase of automobiles on the road, the optimized traffic flow control using the cruise control is one of the very important traffic problems to overcome the limitation of an existing road capacity. Based on this idea that minimize the fuel cost and the air pollution, and accept a driver's needs for driving, we have developed an intelligent cruise control system for vehicle. This proposed intelligent fuzzy cruise controller was successfully implemented using the fuzzy algorithm, the i80c196 μ-controller board and the throttle valve actuator. The field test results on an linear road was introduced.

A elevator group supervisory system is designed to perform efficient operation of multiple elevators, and its basic function is to assign an appropriate elevator to a given hall-cell. In this paper, in order to improve elevator group control performance, we propose a new dispatching system which includes fuzzy multi-attribute decision making(MADM). In most cases, the purpose of group control is to maximize control goals as much as possible. Unfortunately, the decision of optimal elevator to a given hall cell is made with very uncertain information of the system, and some of control goals are related each other. The uncertainty is mainly resulted from car calls generated by serving hall calls. A fuzzy MADM algorithm is proposed to deal with these problems to improve system performance.

Unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) are getting popular not only as a private usage for the aerial photograph but military usage for the surveillance, reconnaissance and supply missions. For an UAV to successfully achieve these kind of missions, geolocation (localization) must be implied to track an interested target or fly by reference. In this research, we adopted multi-sensor fusion (MSF) algorithm to increase the accuracy of the geolocation and verified the algorithm using two multicopter UAVs. One UAV is equipped with an optical camera, and another UAV is equipped with an optical camera and a laser range finder. Throughout the experiment, we have obtained measurements about a fixed ground target and estimated the target position by a series of coordinate transformations and sequential Kalman filter. The result showed that the MSF has better performance in estimating target location than the case of using single sensor. Moreover, the experimental result implied that multi-sensor geolocation algorithm is able to have further improvements in localization accuracy and feasibility of other complicated applications such as moving target tracking and multiple target tracking.

In this paper, we propose a optimal deployment method for cooperative exploration of swarm robots. The proposed method consists of two parts such as optimal deployment and path planning. The optimal area deployment is proposed by the K-mean Algorithm and Voronoi tessellation. The path planning is proposed by the potential field method and A* Algorithm. Finally, the numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
