Recently, the progress of industrialization has been taken concern of material handling automation. So for, the conveyor belt has been popular for material handling. However, this system has many disadvantages such as the space, cost, etc. In this paper, a new navigation algorithm using fuzzy is introduced. The mobile robot follows a line installed on the roads. These informations are inputted with three approximate sensors. These obtained informations are analyzed with fuzzy control technique fur autonomous steering. Therefore, unlike existing systems, high reliability is guaranteed under bad environment conditions. The installation and maintenance of a line is easily made at lower cost. This developed mobile robot can be applied to material handling automation in manufacturing system, hospital, inter-office document del ivory.

In this paper, we consider a terminal, linear control system with delay, subject to unknown but bounded disturbances. For this system, we consider the problem of constructing a worst-case optimal feedback control policy, which can be corrected at fixed, intermediate time instants. The policy should guarantee that for all admissible uncertainties the system states are in prescribed neighborhoods of predefined system states, at all fixed, intermediate time instants, and in the neighborhood of a given state at a terminal time instant, and the value of the cost function is the best guaranteed value. Simple explicit rules(which can be easily implemented on-line) for constructing the optimal control policy in the original control problem are derived.

In this paper, robust controllers which guarantee the stability and the quadratic performance in the presence of the state and the input matrix uncertainties are presented. Modified quadratic performance indices which include the model uncertainties are proposed for continuous and discrete time linear systems. And it is shown that the solution of the proposed optimal performance problem is the robust controller.

It has been well known that the assumption of full state availability is one of the most important restrictions to the practical realization of VSCS. And several attempts to alleviate the assumption had been made. However, it is not easy to find a positive scheme among them. Recently, an output feedback variable structure control system(OFVSCS) was proposed and the effectiveness of the scheme was validated for the disturbance free systems. The purpose of this study is to propose a robust OFVSCS that have the robust properties against process parameter variations and external distrubances by extending the basic OFVSCS and to evaluate its control performances through power system stabilizer design example. The ROFVSCS is composed of dynamic switching function and output feedback switching control inputs that are constructed by the use of the unknown vector modeling technique. With the proposed scheme, existence of sliding mode is guaranteed and any nonzero bias can be suppressed in the face of disturbances and process parameter variations as far as well-known matching condition is satisfied. Due to the fact that the ROFVSCS is driven by small number of measured informations, the practical application of VSCS for the systems with unmeasurable states and for high order systems that conventional schemes cannot be applied, is possible with the proposed scheme. It is noticeable that the implementation cost of VSCS can be considerably reduced without sacrifice of control performances by adopting ROFVSCS since there is no need measure the states with high measurement cost.

In this research, a neural network (NN) method was developed, which combines H-infinity and fuzzy control for the purpose of stabilization and stability analysis of nonlinear systems. The H-infinity criterion is derived from the Lyapunov fuzzy method, and it is defined as a fuzzy combination of quadratic Lyapunov functions. Based on the stability criterion, the nonlinear system is guaranteed to be stable, so it is transformed to be a linear matrix inequality (LMI) problem. Since the demo active vibration control system to the tuning of the algorithm sequence developed a controller in a manner, it could effectively improve the control performance, by reducing the wind's excitation configuration in response to increase in the cost efficiency, and the control actuator.

A fuzzy PID controller design method is proposed for precise robust control of DC-DC buck converters. The PID parameters are determined reflecting on the common control engineering knowledge that transient performances can be improved if the P and I gains are big and the D gain is small at the beginning. Different from the previous fuzzy control design methods, the proposed method requires no defuzzification module and the global stability of the proposed fuzzy control system can be guaranteed. The proposed fuzzy PID controller is implemented by using a low-cost 8-bit microcontroller, and simulation and experimental results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper considers the problem of adaptive fault-tolerant guaranteed cost controller design via dynamic output feedback for a class of linear time-delay systems against actuator faults. A new variable gain controller is established, whose gains are tuned by the designed adaptive laws. More relaxed sufficient conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), compared with the corresponding fault-tolerant controller with fixed gains. A real application example about river pollution process is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this note, we investigate a noniterative design method of an observer-based robust H$\_$2/ controller in the presence of structured real parameter uncertainty by applying Riccati approach based on the guaranteed cost function. Motivated by the numerical difficulty of the problem, we try to develop a simple design method named as block-diagonal approach, which can be solved by the LMIs method. By assuming the block-diagonal structure of Riccati solution, the original problem can be derived into two sequentially decoupled optimization problems as LQG control problem. The proposed method seems to be numerically efficient in obtaining a feasible compensator.

According to globalization and localization of world economics international trade payment method was also changed. A traditional payment was Letter of Credit basis, however it is being increased to various methods such as remittance, documentary collection(D/P, D/A) and open account. In order to acquire a secure export payment, exporters prefer to L/C basis which is guaranteed by a reliable bank. However, the L/C should bear a security so that importers would rather documentary collection than L/C. The reasons for the preference of collection payment rather than L/C are a low commission cost, the conversion of buyer's market from seller's market due to severe competition in the world market, transaction increase between main office and branches and a right to control the goods until executing the payment by exporters. Besides of them, collection payment can handle safer and faster than open account basis. However, the collection payment has a risk which it isn't guaranteed by bank for the payment so that I would suggest countermeasures to minimize the payment risk utilizing the collection basis as follows; using export credit insurance system, a large domestic credit report provider such as D&B for absolutely fresh and new information, a collection proxy service for overseas deferred credit and suggestion specifying to order B/L not straight one on consignee in order to transfer the right of ownership with endorsement without problem.
