  • Damping capacity of SMA damping devices is simulated numerically under distinct geometry and loading conditions. Two-dimensional numerical simulations are performed on the basis of a phenomenological model of dynamics of martensite-austenite phase boundaries. Results of the simulations predict the time delay and the value of the stress transferred to other parts of a construction by a damper device.

  • This study is performed to examine the relationships between trust and antecedents in cyberspace. Trust is the major control system in cyberspace. Different time, different spaces, different cultures, indistinct boundaries, flexible structure, separation of information from matters, cybernetics, difficulty of control are differential characteristics between cyberspace and physical space. Providing fit information, use of effective electronic channels, previous trust management, feedback system about output, flexible culture, self-regulation, off-line meeting, providing information about tasks and roles, ability, and justice are supposed to have effects on trust in cyberspace. By electronic mediated systems, the company will have more business opportunity. But trust will be conditional factors of expanding business in cyberspace.

  • The high portability and mobility of mobile devices have given rise to critical concerns with regard to mobile situation-aware services that utilize user situation information in the mobile domain. Mobile situation-aware services for mobile devices are provided by collecting and analyzing data, from which the user situation is inferred through an inference system. However, the high mobility of the mobile domain has made it difficult to infer the required results. In addition, previous studies have not identified a systematic approach to modifying and adapting. In this paper, we propose a systematic feedback process model based on software cybernetics in order to address the abovementioned problems. Further, we propose a MADA(Monitoring, Analysis, Determinating, Adaptation) framework for the feedback process model. Thus, the proposed approach supports the development of self-adaptive mobile situation-aware services that can infer appropriate results and manage the inferred results systematically.

  • To research of the improved mechanical properties of materials for spectacle lens cutting, SiC and TiC were used as the main powder. Also, $Al_2O_3$ and $Y_2O_3$ was included as a sintering additive. The weight ratio of the alumina($Al_2O_3$) to yttria($Y_2O_3$) was set to 1:1. The materials for spectacle lens cutting were fabricated by hot-pressing at $1810^{\circ}C$ for 1h and subsequently annealed at $1860^{\circ}C$ for 3, 6 and 12h to initiated grain growth. The longer annealing time is, the bigger the grain size is. The microstructures were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SEM images were quantitatively analyzed by image analysis (Image-Pro Plus, Media Cybernetics, Maryland, U.S.A.). Crack deflection by elongated SiC grains was most frequently observed as the dominant toughening mechanism. Crack deflection was generally observed for elongated SiC grains with aspect ratio(AR) > 2.5 and grain thickness < $2.3{\mu}m$. Crack bridging was also observed as one of the operating toughness mechanism.

  • This work aimed to evaluate the feasibility of biohydrogen production from Barley Straw and Miscanthus. The primary obstacle in plant biomass decomposition is the recalcitrance of the biomass itself. Plant cell walls consist of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, which make the plant robust to decomposition. However, the hyperthermophilic bacterium, Caldicellulosiruptor bescii, can efficiently utilize lignocellulosic feedstocks (Barley Straw and Miscanthus) for energy production, and C. bescii can now be metabolically engineered or isolated to produce more hydrogen and other biochemicals. In the present study, two strains, C. bescii JWCB001 (wild-type) and JWCB018 (ΔpyrFA Δldh ΔcbeI), were tested for their ability to increase hydrogen production from Barley Straw and Miscanthus. The JWCB018 resulted in a redirection of carbon and electron (carried by NADH) flow from lactate production to acetate and hydrogen production. JWCB018 produced ~54% and 63% more acetate and hydrogen from Barley Straw, respectively than its wild-type counterpart, JWCB001. Also, 25% more hydrogen from Miscanthus was obtained by the JWCB018 strain with 33% more acetate relative to JWCB001. It was supported that the engineered C. bescii, such as the JWCB018, can be a parental strain to get more hydrogen and other biochemicals from various biomass.

  • Actually, Cyberpunk is a compound word joined by cybernetics, which was used in control theory, and punk, was symbolized as anti-culture. Today, however, the definition of the term has been extended by various fields, used in many meanings. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to apply the Cyberpunk concepts to understand today s fashion because understanding of the present fashion is a means to interpret our culture. For this purpose, the phenomenon of Cyberpunk in fashion was subdivided into three factors material, color, and style. The results of the study were as follows : First, the materials used were techno material, special print by computer for future feeling and geometrical pattern, optical pattern to improve visual effects. Second, the colors mainly used were silver, black and white, bright color, and off-color of computer animation to present future-oriented feeling. Third, the general styles used were fit and slim, simple and liner, dualistic style to express future s image. In conclusion, the phenomena of Cyberpunk in fashion were expressed in material, color and style of fashion. Cyberpunk fashion was evident in T-shirts, sweaters, jackets, or as items of ornamentation such as pins, pendants, belts, and earrings, etc.

  • The main drawback of “classical”fuzzy systems is the inability to design and maintain their database. To overcome this disadvantage many types of extensions adding the adaptivity property to those systems were designed. This paper deals with one of them a new hybrid adaptation structure, called gradient-incremental adaptive fuzzy controller connecting gradient-descent methods with the so-called self-organizing fuzzy logic controller designed by Procyk and Mamdani. The aim is to incorporate the advantages of both Principles. This controller was implemented and tested on the system of LEGO robots. The results and comparison to a ‘classical’(non-adaptive) fuzzy controller designed by a human operator are also shown here.

  • The ideas of cyberspace and bio-mechanic hybrid architecture which has been made in conjunction with the electro-mechanic environment and human body as an organic body are newly illuminated in the main stream of contemporary architecture. This study aims at the analysis of the expression of the image of cyborg as a hybrid of an organic body and machine after modern era and its methods of application to arthitectural design. The results are as following: Cyborg is a hybrid of human and machine that is made according to the principle of cybernetics, and is a kind of bachelor machine in the late 20th century. The cyborg images in modern architecture were expressed as prosthetic object-machine, organic image, pataphysical machine. The cyborg images in contemporary architecture are expressed as auto-control function, organic machine, cyberspace.

  • It is the new promising method of obtaining the information about the state of a surface of a solid body, thin and multilayer structures. An idea of the method consists in reading and analyzing the relations U(t), dU/dt(t), dU/dt(U) on an electrical cell when anodizing an investigated object. By these relation it is possible to control the presence of impurities in the metal on the path of the anodization front, a structure and characteristics of the object being oxidized as well as of an oxide which is being formed during anodizing, the change in composition of the oxide layer, the thickness and composition of metallic and dielectric layers being a part of the layers boundaries.
