The side mirrors play an important role in driver's safety and convenience. People drive safely based on the side mirrors and room mirror through observation of environment. However, the drivers can not completely confront environments because of the dead angle of the side mirrors. In this research, based on geometric optics and geometric modeling, aspheric surfaces of the side mirror mold with dead angle free has been designed and machined in CNC machining center, Surface roughness of the mold was evaluated by using surface shaping system. The analysis on the shape of formed mirrors shows the mirrors have been reduced the dead angle comparing with the original mold.

In this paper based on geometric optics and geometric modeling aspheric surface of the side mirror mold with dead angle reduced have been designed and machined in a CNC machining center, Surface roughness of the mold was evaluat-ed by usin the surface shaping system. Surface generating simulation of a ball endmill process is investigated. Through the simulation based on the surface-shaping system 3-D engineered surfaces and properties of engineered surfaces are obtained, Computer simulation provides the effective working conditions through the prediction of geometric properties of engineered surfaces. The rear view mirror and room mirror play important role on the safe driving condition as a observation of environment but the rear view mirror can not provide complete information of driving environments due to the existence of the dead angle. The analysis on the shape of formed mirror shows that the proposed me？ improves range of a driver's sight.

To improve the performance of PID controller of high order systems by model reduction, we proposed two model reduction methods. One, Original model with two point $({\angle}G(jw)=\;-{\pi}/2,\;-{\pi})$ in Nyquist curve used gradient base method and genetic algorithm. The other, Original model without two point$({\angle}G(jw)=\;-{\pi}/2,\;-{\pi})$in Nyquist curve used to add very small dead time. This method has annexed very small dead time on the base model for reduction, and we remove it after getting the reduced model, and , we improved Smith-predictor for a dead-time compensator using genetic algorithms. This method considered four points$({\angle}G(jw)=0,\;-\pi/2,\;-\pi,\;-3\pi/2)$ in the Nyquist curve to reduce steady state error between original and reduced model. It is shown that the proposed methods have more performance than the conventional method.

This paper presents a new structure of single-stage flyback power factor correction (PFC) converter with a controllable coupled negative magnetic feedback (NMF) winding. NMF winding is used to reduce the bulk capacitor voltage at high line voltages and light loads. However, it would cause line current distortion at zero crossing condition. In the proposed circuit, a series winding is used with NMF inductor to eliminate the NMF inductor at low line voltages. As a result, the dead angle of the input current, near zero voltage crossing, is eliminated and the power factor is increased. The presented experimental results of the proposed PFC converter confirm the integrity of the new idea and the theoretical analysis.

Purpose : The aim of this study was to compare the effects of the abdominal draw-in exercise (ADIE) and the dead bug exercise (DBE) on the pelvic anterior tilt angle and the activities of the gluteus maximus (GM), erector spinae (ES), and semi tendinosus (ST) during prone hip extension. Methods : A total of 22 female adults with weak abdominal muscles were divided into two groups: ADIE group (n=11) and DBE group (n=11). The muscle activities of the GM, ES, and ST along with the pelvic anterior tilt angle during prone hip extension were measured using a wireless surface electromyograph and gyro sensor before performing the prescribed exercise. Two groups conducted the assigned exercise for 10 minutes. After the exercise, their muscle activities and the pelvic anterior tilt angle were equally re measured. Results : In the DBE group, the muscle activity of GM was significantly increased after the intervention (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the amount of increase in the activity of GM (p>0.05). Moreover, in both groups, the activity of ES and the pelvic anterior tilt angle decreased significantly after the intervention (p<0.05) The decreased quantity in the pelvic anterior tilt angle and in the activity of ES showed no difference between the two groups (p>0.05). In the activity of ST, there was no significant difference within and between the two groups (p>0.05). Conclusion : Therefore, we suggest that ADIE and DBE are effective for women with weak abdominal muscles since the ES activity and pelvic anterior tilt angle are reduced during prone hip extension.

In this paper, a steering control system for the path tracking of autonomous vehicles is described. The steering control system consists of a path tracker and primitive driver. The path tracker generates the desired steering angle by using the look-ahead distance, vehicle heading, and a lateral offset. A method for applying an autonomous vehicle to path tracking is an advanced pure pursuit method that can reduce cutting corners, which is a weakness of the pure pursuit method. The steering controller controls the steering actuator to follow the desired steering angle. A servo motor is installed to control the steering handle, and it can transmit the steering force using a belt and pulley. We designed a steering controller that is applied to a proportional integral differential controller. However, because of a dead band, the path tracking performance and stability of autonomous vehicles are reduced. To overcome the dead band, a dead band compensator was developed. As a result of the compensator, the path tracking performance and stability are improved.

A modified direct torque control (DTC) method based on torque angle is proposed for interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drivers used in electric vehicles (EVs). Given the close relationship between torque and torque angle, proper voltage vectors are selected by the proposed DTC method to change the torque angle rapidly and regulate the torque quickly. The amplitude and angle of the voltage vectors are determined by the torque loop and stator flux-linkage loop, respectively, with the help of the position of the stator flux linkage. Furthermore, to satisfy the torque performance request of EVs, the nonlinear dead-time of the invertor caused by parasitic capacitances is considered and compensated to improve steady torque performance. The stable operation region of the IPMSM DTC driver for voltage and current limits is investigated for reliability. The experimental results prove that the proposed DTC has good torque performance with a brief control structure.

For navigation of a mobile robot, it is one of the essential tasks to find out its current position. Dead reckonining is the most frequently used method to estimate its position. Hpwever conventional dead reckoner is prone to give us false information on the robot position especially when the wheels are slipping. This paper proposes an improved dead reckoning scheme using neural networks. The network detects the instance of wheel slopping and estimates the linear velocity of the wheel; thus it calculates current position and heading angle of a mobile robot. The structure and variables of the nerual network are chosen in consideration of slip motion characteristics. A series of experiments are performed to train the networks and to investigate the performance of the improved dead reckoning system.

To improve the performance of PID controller of high order systems by model reduction, we proposed a new model reduction method in frequency domain. A new model reduction method we proposed, considered four points (${\angle}G(jw)=0$, $-{\pi}/2$, $-{\pi}$, $-3{\pi}/2$) in stead of two points (${\angle}G(jw)=-{\pi}/2$, and $-{\pi}$) in Nyquist curve. And for high order systems that it have not two point (${\angle}G(jw)=-{\pi}/2$, and $-{\pi}$) in Nyquist curve, we proposed a method to annex very small dead time. This method has a annexed very small dead time on the base model for reduction, and we cancel it after to get the reduced model. It is shown that the performance of proposed method is better than any other methods.

By adding Gyro sensor to support the steering wheel angle sensor, an improved functional DR solution is proposed in this paper The proposed angle data algorism is developed based on the steering wheel with Gyro sensor for DR. The Gyro sensor support the error of steering wheel sensor to improve the angle data for the DR algorism.
