Finite element models are updated in two stages in this paper. In the first stage, damping is neglected, and mass and stiffness matrices of a finite element model are updated using an optimization technique. The objective function for optimization consists of natural frequencies and mode shapes obtained from experimental modal testing data and finite element analysis. In the second stage, damping is considered with the mass and stiffness matrices fixed. A damping matrix is estimated assuming a proportional damping system. Then the damping matrix is adjusted using an optimization process so that the difference between the analytical and measured frequency response functions becomes minimum. This procedure of model updating has been applied to a simulated system and an experimental cantilever beam.

A solution of heat transfer problems of composite materials has been tried using homogenization technique. Homogenization technique, which was derived by applying asymptotic expansion to the standard finite element method, helped compute the equivalent thermal conductivity matrices of base cells which constituted the composite material with repeated patterns. The homogenization technique made it possible to compute the solution of the heat transfer problem of composite materials with lower degrees of freedom compared to those of other numerical methods. The equivalent thermal conductivities computed by computed by homogenization technique are also applicable to other numerical methods such as finite difference method.

In this paper new implicit time integration called N-IHOA is presented for dynamic analysis of high damping systems. Here, current displacement and velocity are assumed to be functions of the velocities and accelerations of several previous time steps, respectively. This definition causes that only one set of weighted factors is calculated from the Taylor series expansion which leads to a simple approach and reduce the computational efforts. Moreover a comprehensive study on stability of the proposed method i.e., N-IHOA compared with IHOA integration which is performed based on amplification matrices proves the ability of the N-IHOA in high damping vibrations such as control systems. Also, wide range of numerical examples which contains single/multi degrees of freedom, damped/un-damped, free/forced vibrations from finite element/finite difference demonstrate that the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed time integration is more than the common approaches such as the IHOA, the Wilson-${\theta}$ and the Newmark-${\beta}$.

Let $\mathbb{X}_t$ be an m-dimensional linear process defined by $\mathbb{X}_t=\sum{_{j=0}^\infty}\;A_j\;\mathbb{Z}_{t-j}$, t = 1, 2, $\ldots$, where $\mathbb{Z}_t$ is a sequence of m-dimensional random vectors with mean 0 : $m\times1$ and positive definite covariance matrix $\Gamma:m{\times}m$ and $\{A_j\}$ is a sequence of coefficient matrices. In this paper we give sufficient conditions so that $\sum{_{t=1}^{[ns]}\mathbb{X}_t$ (properly normalized) converges weakly to Wiener measure if the corresponding result for $\sum{_{t=1}^{[ns]}\mathbb{Z}_t$ is true.

This paper presents a maneuvering target model with the maneuver dynamics modeled as a jump process of Poisson-type. The jump process represents the deterministic maneuver(or pilot commands) and is described by a stochastic differential equation driven by a Poisson process taking values a set of discrete states. Employing the new maneuver model along with the noisy observations described by linear difference equations, the author has developed a new linear, recursive, unbiased minimum variance filter, which is structurally simple, computationally efficient, and hence real-time implementable. Futhermore, the proposed filter does not involve a computationally burdensome technique to compute the filter gains and corresponding covariance matrices and still be able to track effectively a fast maneuvering target. The performance of the proposed filter is assessed through the numerical results generated from the Monte-Carlo simulation.

This paper considers a method to design sliding mode observers for a class of uncertain systems using Linear Matrix Inequalities(LMI). In an LMI-based sliding mode observer design method for a class of uncertain systems the switching surface is set to be the difference between the observer and system output. In terms of LMIs, a necessary and sufficient condition is derived for the existence of a sliding-mode observer guaranteeing a stable sliding motion on the switching surface. The gain matrices of the sliding-mode observer are characterized using the solution of the LMI existence condition. The results are illustrated by an example.

This study focuses on the optimal operation and control strategy of the fuel cell process. The control objective of the Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell (PAFC) is established and dynamic modeling equations of the entire fuel cell process are formulated as discrete-time type. On-line optimal control of the MIMO system employs the direct decomposition-coordination method. The objective function is modified as the tracking form to enhance the response capability to the load change. The weight factor matrices Q,R, which are design parameters, are readjusted. This control system is compared with LQI method and the results show that the suggested method is better than the traditional method in pressure difference control.

A general characterization procedure based on the extraction of a 2n-port admittance matrix corresponding to n uniform coupled lines on the multi-layered substrate using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) technique is presented. The frequency-dependent normal mode parameters are obtained from the 2n-port admittance matrix, which in turn provides the frequency-dependent distributed inductance and capacitance matrices. To illustrate the technique, several practical coupled line structures on multi-layered substrate, including a three-line structure, have been simulated. It is shown that the FDTD based time domain characterization procedure is an excellent broadband simulation tool for the design of multiconductor coupled lines on multilayered PCBs as well as thick or thin hybrid structures.

In this paper, the selection method of weighting matrices in the discrete-time LQ problem are suggested in order to improve the guaranteed stability margins, i.e. the gain and phase margins. The asymptotic properties of the solution of the algebraic Riccati equations are investigated by using the closed form solution of the difference Riccati equations. It is shown that the solution of the algebraic Riccati equations monotonically increases as the state weighting matrix Q or the control weighting matrix R increase. The increasing rate of the solution is shown to be much less than that of R for large R. It is also proven that the guaranteed stability margins increases as the ratio between Q and R decreases.

Transmission loss of the simple expansion chamber with multiple inlet and outlet ports is obtained. Transfer matrices which represent the relation between the power variables(pressure and velocity) of inlets and outlets depend on the input relatons as well as the acoustic system parameters(i.e. geometry of the chamber, wall admittance, etc.). The analysis has been performed analytically, including the effects of higher order modes for the 2-inlet/1-outlet, 1-inlet/2-outlet and 2-inlet/2-outlet systems. This study yeilds that phase difference between the inlet ports can significantly increase the transmission loss in low frequency range.
