By employing the concept of equivalent linkage, this paper presents an analytical method for analyzing the mechanical errors of disk cam mechanisms with a flat-faced follower. The resulting error equations do not really involve the location of the curvature center of the cam profile, and locating the curvature center of the cam profile is not essential. The resulting errors are significantly affected by the pressure angle, and the smaller pressure angle will result in the smaller mechanical error. In the worst case, owing to the joined effects of various design parameters, the accuracy of the follower motion may degrade considerably. For the oscillating follower case, all acceleration error functions have a sudden change at every beginning and at every end of the motion even though the theoretical follower displacement is cycloidal motion.

NDI technique system using AC current is newly developed for inspection of defects. This technique is non-contact measurement system and can be applied for locating and sizing of surface defects in components. In this paper, the technique was applied for evaluating the location and size for 2-dimensional surface cracks and we had investigated the influence of frequency and lift-off. The results show that defects are able to detect with the variety of voltage, and the measuring voltage for the depth of defects are under the influence of the measuring frequency and the lift-off.

The luffing-tower crane (T/C) is a key facility used in the vertical and horizontal transportation of materials in a tall building construction. Locating the crane in an optimal position is an essential task in the initial stages of construction planning. This paper proposes a new optimization model to locate the luffing T/C in the optimal position to minimize the transportation time. A newly developed mathematical formula is suggested to calculate the transportation time of luffing T/C correctly. An optimization algorithm, the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm, was used and the results show that HS has high performance characteristics to solve the optimization problem in a short period of time. In a case study, the proposed model offered a better position for T/C than the previous heuristic approach.

In this paper, we investigated the SLS process to control grain boundary(GB) location in TFT channel region, and it has been found to be applicable for locating the GB at the same location in the channel region of each TFT. We fabricated TFT by applying a new alignment SLS process and compared the TFT characteristics with a normal SLS method and the grain boundary location controlled SLS method. Also, we have analysed degradation phenomena under hot carrier stress conditions for n-type LDD MOSFETs.

Let G be an n-vertex convex polygon whose vertices are in general position. We consider an illumination problem of locating two floodlights on the boundary of G, which illuminates G and whose larger angle is as small as possible. We present an O($n^2$) time algorithm under the extended real-RAM model.

This paper describes an nstrument for the detection and geometric location of partial discharge(PD) sources in transformers. This instrument measures electric current pulses and ultrasonic pulses simultaneously, counts the number of electrical pulse and determines the geometric location of PD in transformers. It was found that there is a relationship between partial discharge magnitude and pulse repetition rate when the applied test voltage and oil temperature were varied. Through the laboratory test using model transformer, it was clarified that this detector could be used, satisfactory for detecting and locating of PD in the transformer.

A computer vision system was developed to automatically detect and locate the oyster hinge line, one step in shucking an oyster. The computer vision system consisted of a personal computer, a color frame grabber, a color CCD video camera with a zoom lens, two video monitor, a specially designed fixture to hold the oyster, a lighting system to illuminate the oyster and the system software. The software consisted of a combination of commercially available programs and custom designed programs developed using the Microsoft CTM . Test results showed that the image resolution was the most important variable influencing hinge detection efficiency. Whether or not the trimmed -off-flat-white surface area was dry or wet, the oyster size relative to the image size selected , and the image processing methods used all influenced the hinge locating efficiency. The best computer software and hardware combination used successfully located 97% of the oyster hinge lines tested. This efficienc was achieve using camera field of view of 1.9 by 1.5cm , a 180 by 170 pixel image window, and a dry trimmed -off oyster hinge end surface.

This paper presented Fuzzy logic application to Electrical power system analysis for fault location estimation in distribution lines and apply the Power system theory to be fuzzy logic database. The case study referred to the Overhead distribution line of the Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA.), Thailand which mostly the distribution line of PEA. are Radial schemes. These benefits include reduced outage time, help in locating momentary faults, enhance safety to the line crews and provide notification of an outage without receiving calls from the consumer, Which these benefits also increase Reliability, Stability and Efficiency.

A continuous and reliable electrical energy supply is the objective of any power system operation. A transmission line is the part of the power system where faults are most likely to happen. This paper describes the use of wavelet transform for analyzing power system fault transients in order to determine the fault location. Synchronized sampling was made possible by precise time receivers based on GPS time reference, and the sampled data were analyzed using wavelet transform. This paper describes a fault location monitoring system and fault locating algorithm with GPS, DSP processor, and data acquisition board, and presents some experimental results and error analysis.

Snakes is an active contour model or representing image contours. To detect chest boundary on thoracic MRI sequences, we proposed a method based on modified greedy algorithm. Because thoracic MRI sequences have a spatial correlation, we added energy term related with spatial correlation to Snakes energy formulation. A measure of shape similarity called the BMD was used to evaluate the accuracy of the algorithm. The average BMD value or the modified algorithm's result is higher than greedy algorithm's.
