In this study, the balance beam control subsystem, new type of construction machinery using the mechanism of CMG (control moment gyro), for the attitude control of an unstructured object such as a beam carried by a tower crane, is designed and implemented. The balance beam controller consists of a wheel spinning at high speed and an outer gimbal for controlling the attitude of the wheel. Two motors, one for the wheel and the other for the gimbal, are used. Applying force to the spin axis of the wheel, as an input of the system, leads the torque about the axis because of the gyro effects. This torque is used to control the attitude of the unstructured object in this study. For the stabilizer function, in addition, holding the load at the current position, the attitude of the wheel is freed by cutting the power applied to the gimbal motor of the balance beam controller, which result in the braking force to stop the load by gyro effect. The works presented here include the mechanical system of the balance beam controller, the remote controller, the servo controller and the control software for the system. We also present experimental results to show that the system we proposed is useful as a new construction machinery which can control the attitude of the beam hanging from a tower crane.

In this study in order to confirm the algorithms that are suggested from paper (I) as the experimental result, as the applied results of the hydraulic servo system are very strong a non-linearity of the fluid in the computer simulation, the real-time adaptive learning control algorithms is validated. The evolutionary strategy has characteristics that are automatically. adjusted in search regions with natural competition among many individuals. The error that is generated from the dynamic system is applied to the mutation equation. Competitive individuals are reduced with automatic adjustments of the search region in accord with the error. In this paper, the individual parents and offspring can be reduced in order to apply evolutionary algorithms in real-time as the description of the paper (I). The possibility of a new approaching algorithm that is suggested from the computer simulation of the paper (I) would be proved as the verification of a real-time test and the consideration its influence from the actual experiment.

This paper describes the cycloidal wind turbine, which is a straight blade vertical axis wind turbine using the cycloidal blade system. Cycloidal blade system consists of several blades rotating about an axis in parallel direction. Each blade changes its pitch angle periodically. Cycloidal wind turbine is different from the previous turbines. The wind turbine operates with optimum rotating forces through active control of the blade to change pitch angle and phase angle according to the changes of wind direction and wind speed. Various numerical experiments were conducted to develop a small vertical axis wind turbine of 1 kW class. For this numerical analysis, the rotor system equips four blades consisting of a symmetric airfoil NACA0018 of 1.0m in span, 0.22m in chord and 1.0m in radius. A general purpose commercial CFD program, STAR-CD, was used for numerical analysis. PCL of MSC/PATRAN was used for efficient parametric auto mesh generation. Variables of wind speed, pitch angle, phase angle and rotating speed were set in the numerical experiments. The generated power was obtained according to the various combinations of these variables. Optimal pitch angle and phase angle of cycloidal blade system were obtained according to the change of the wind direction and the wind speed. Based on data obtained from the above analysis, control device was designed. The wind direction and the wind speed were sensed by a wind indicator and an anemometer. Each blades were actuated to optimal performance values by servo motors.

Control systems in machinery equipment provide correction signals to motion units in order to reduce or cancel out the mismatches between sensor feedback signals and command or desired values. In this paper, we introduce a simulator for control characteristics of machinery equipment. The purpose of the simulator development is to provide mechanical system designers with the ability to estimate how much dynamic performance can be achieved from their design parameters and selected devices at the designing phase. The simulator has a database for commercial parts, so that the designers can choose appropriate components for servo controllers, motors, motor drives, and guide ways, etc. and then tune governing parameters such as controller gains and friction coefficients. The simulator simulates the closed-loop control system which is built and parameter-tuned by the designer and shows dynamic responses of the control system. The simulator treats the moving table as a 6 degrees-of-freedom rigid body and considers the motion guide blocks stiffness, damping and their locations as well as sensor locations. The simulator has been under development for one and a half years and has a few years to go before the public release. The primary achievements and features will be presented in this paper.

This paper describes the development of a chest-wearable robot that can efficiently perform self walking rehabilitation without a helper. The features of the developed robot are divided into three parts. First, as a mechanical characteristic, the conventional elbow crutch is attached at the forearm. However, the proposed robot is attached to the patient's chest, enabling them to feel free to use their hands and eliminate the burden of the arms. Second, as a characteristic of the driving algorithm, pressure sensors attached to the chest automatically perceive the patient's walking intention and move the robot-leg thereafter. Also, for safety, it stops operating when an obstacle is found in front of the patient by using ultrasonic sensors and generates a beeping sound. Finally, by using the scotch yoke mechanism, supporting legs are moved up and down using a rotary servo motor without excessive torque that is generated by large ground reaction forces. We showed that the developed robot can effectively perform self walking rehabilitation through walking experiments, and its performance was verified using Electromyograph (EMG) sensors.

본 논문의 목적은 스풀 랜드(spool land)와 슬리브(sleeve) 사이의 정특성 방정식으로부터 스풀 밸브의 압력 특성과 유동특성을 구하는 것이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여, 스풀 랜드와 슬리브 사이의 유동을 환상간극 유동과 오리피스 유동, 그 중간의 천이 영역으로 나누고, 천이 영역의 유량계수를 길이에 따른 두 영역으로 나눈 선형 일차방정식으로 가정하였다. 스풀 밸브의 압력특성방정식을 구하기 위해 스풀의 중립지점에서부터의 변위에 따른 유동을 $q_a=q_b=0$의 조건으로부터 구하였으며, 스풀 밸브의 유량특성방정식을 구하기 위하여 스풀의 중립지점에서부터의 변위에 따른 유동을 $q_a=q_b$, $p_a=p_b$의 조건으로부터 구하였다. 구해진 수식의 타당성은 수치해석을 통해 실험식 및 기존논문과의 비교를 통해 확인하였다.

A nonlinear control scheme for preventing limit cycle due to the nonlinearity of themulti-step bang-bang actuator in mechanical position control systems is proposed. A linearized model, SIDF, fora multi-step bang-bang actuator is introduced to compensate the nonlinearity of the multi-step bang-bang actuator. Using that model, a $H_{\infty}$robust controller for position control systms with a bang-bang actuator is proposed by loop shaping tecniques with normalized coprime factorization stabilization to address the robustness. The proposed scheme needs a smaller deadband as a result of compensating the nonlinearity of the bang-bang actuator. A single-axis servo system is served in order to verify the proposed control scheme experimentally. Experimental results show that the controller can satisfy the special intersts, silent contact switching of the actuator.r.

원격지에 위치한 분산제어 시스템과 센서 데이터 또는 제어 명령을 주고받을 때에는 불확실한 시간지연이 발생한다. TCP/IP 프로토콜을 이용한 데이터 네트워크와 마찬가지로 데이터 네트워크와 디바이스 네트워크를 결합한 가상 디자이스 네트워크도 불확실한 시간지연이 내재되어 있다. 이러한 시간지연은 분산제어시스템의 성능을 저하시키고 불안전성을 야기하는 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 네트워크상에 내재하는 시간지연을 평가하고 부정적인 효과를 최소화하기 위하여 Smith Predictor를 적용하였다. 제안된 제어 알고리즘은 실시간 서보제어를 통하여 효과를 입증하였으며 가상 디바이스 네트워크 개념에 근거한 분산제어 시스템을 이용하여 실시간 예지보전을 수행할 때 효과가 있음을 제시하였다.

로봇 운영 체제인 Robot Operating System (ROS)은 다양한 로봇 프로젝트와 연구에서 광범위하게 활용되며 국제적인 활발한 커뮤니티가 형성되어 있다. 많은 로봇 기능들이 ROS 를 활용하여 개발되어왔고, 이중에서도 Fastech 사의 Ezi-SERVO II PLUS E motor driver 를 ROS 환경에서 사용할 수 있도록 개발 작업이 진행되었다. ROS 는 Linux 기반이므로, 개발 환경으로는 초보자도 다루기 쉬우면서 비교적 저렴한 소형 컴퓨터인 Raspberry Pi 를 선택하였다. 또, Raspberry Pi 는 Linux 기반의 작은 컴퓨터로, 다양한 개별 프로젝트를 수행하기 위해 많은 사람들이 활용하고 있다. 이로 인해 Raspberry Pi 로 소규모 프로젝트를 진행하는 개발자들도 해당 모터 드라이버를 Raspberry Pi 와 ROS 를 통해 쉽게 사용할 수 있게 되었다.
