Two novel semi-active control methods for a seismically excited nonlinear benchmark building equipped with magnetorheological dampers are presented and evaluated in this paper. While a primary controller is designed to estimate the optimal control force of a magnetorheological (MR) damper, the required voltage input for the damper to produce such desired control force is achieved using two different methods. The first technique uses an optimal compact Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy inverse model of MR damper to predict the required voltage to actuate the MR dampers (TSKFInv). The other voltage regulator introduced here works based on the maximum and minimum capacities of MR damper at each time-step (MaxMin). Both semi-active algorithms developed here, use acceleration feedback only. The results demonstrate that both TSKFInv and MaxMin algorithms are quite effective in seismic response reduction for wide range of motions from moderate to severe seismic events, compared with the passive systems and performs better than original and Modified clipped optimal controller systems, known as COC and MCOC.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on adaptive back-stepping method is proposed for high performance operation of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM). First, in order to improve the performance of speed tracking, a nonlinear back-stepping controller is designed. In addition, since it is difficult to achieve the high quality control performance without considering parameter variation, a parameter estimator is included to adapt to the variation of load torque in real time. Finally, for the efficiency of power consumption of the motor, controller is designed to operate motor with the minimum current for the required maximum torque. The proposed controller is tested through experiment with a 1-hp Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) for the angular velocity reference tracking performance and load torque volatility estimation, and to test the Maximum Torque per Ampere (MTPA) operation. The result verifies the efficacy of the proposed controller.

회전자 온도 변화는 유도 전동기 제어기 설계에 있어서 중요한 쟁점이다. 문헌에서, 수많은 연구들이 회전자 온도 변화를 고려하지 않는다면, 그에 기인한 심각한 성능 저하를 언급해왔다. 하지만, 이러한 연구들은 추종 성능 관점에서 주로 Field-oriented 제어기에 초점을 두고 있으며, 단위 전류당 최대 토크 제어기와 같이 최적 제어의 경우에서의 성능에 미치는 회전자 온도 변화의 영향에 대한 연구는 전무하다. 본 연구는 회전자 온도가 시간에 따라 변화함에 따라, 단위 전류당 최대 토크 제어기의 성능에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지를 조사한다. 이를 위해, 두 가지 방법으로 단위 전류당 최대 토크 제어기의 목적이 성취되는 지를 점검한다. 즉, 요구되는 토크를 발생시키면서 동시에 최소 가능한 고정자 전류를 필요로 하는 것이다. 실험실 실험결과는 추종 성능과 단위 전류당 최대 토크 조건이 회전자 온도가 변화함에 따라 심각한 영향을 받으며, 결과적으로 단위 전류당 최대 토크 제어기의 성능저하를 초래함을 보여준다.

본 연구는 환상박피된 포도 '캠벨얼리' 품종의 과실 품질을 조사하고, 최소 수확시기를 설정하기 위하여 경북 김천에서 개량일자형으로 재배된 8년생 나무의 주간 약 1.0m 높이에 7월 5일에 5~7mm 폭으로 환상 박피한 후 7일 간격으로 과실의 착색, 당도, 산함량, 유기산 및 유리당을 분석하였다. 과피색은 환상박피후 14일부터 Hunter L, b 값이 급격히 감소하였고, Hunter a 값은 증가하여 무처리보다 약 14일 이상 빠르게 변화되었다. 산함량은 환상박피후 14일부터 환상 박피가 무처리에 비해 빠르게 감소되어 수확기에 0.85%로 되었으나, 무처리는 1.10%로 높았다. 당산비는 환상박피후 21일부터 빠르게 상승되어 수확기에 환상박피는 15.1까지 증가된 반면에 무처리는 10.8로 낮았다. 환상박피에 의하여 유리당 함량은 환상박피후 14일부터 과당과 포도당이 급격히 증가하였는데, 무처리보다 약 7일 정도 빨리 증가하였으며, 수확기에는 그 함량이 각각 $64.5mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$와 $61.0mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$로 무처리 $56.1mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$와 $53.7mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$보다 높았다. 또한 유기산 함량은 사과산이 무처리에 비해 착색기 동안은 빠르게 감소되었으나, 수확기에는 차이가 없었으며, 주석산은 환상박피가 무처리보다 빠르게 감소되어 수확기에도 $4.13mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$로 무처리 $5.96mg{\cdot}g^{-1}FW$ 보다 현저히 낮았다. 따라서 과피색 기준으로 환상박피 후 35일에 수확하면 신맛의 포도가 생산될 수 있기 때문에 당산비가 15 이상 되는 환상박피후 42일 이후에 수확해야만 한다.

Recently, as interest in self-driving cars has increased worldwide, research and development on the Advanced Driver Assist System is actively underway. Among them, the purpose of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is to minimize the driver's driving fatigue through the control of the vehicle's longitudinal speed and relative distance. In this study, for the research of the ACC test in the real environment, the real-road test was conducted based on domestic-road test scenario proposed in preceding study, considering ISO 15622 test method. In this case, the distance measurement method using the dual camera was verified by comparing and analyzing the result of using the dual camera and the result of using the measurement equipment. As a result of the comparison, two results could be derived. First, the relative distance after stabilizing the ACC was compared. As a result of the comparison, it was found that the minimum error rate was 0.251% in the first test of scenario 8 and the maximum error rate was 4.202% in the third test of scenario 9. Second, the result of the same time was compared. As a result of the comparison, it was found that the minimum error rate was 0.000% in the second test of scenario 10 and the maximum error rate was 9.945% in the second test of scenario 1. However, the average error rate for all scenarios was within 3%. It was determined that the representative cause of the maximum error occurred in the dual camera installed in the test vehicle. There were problems such as shaking caused by road surface vibration and air resistance during driving, changes in ambient brightness, and the process of focusing the video. Accordingly, it was determined that the result of calculating the distance to the preceding vehicle in the image where the problem occurred was incorrect. In the development stage of ADAS such as ACC, it is judged that only dual cameras can reduce the cost burden according to the above derivation of test results.

The plate manufacturing processes are composed of the reheating furnace, finishing mill, cooling process and hot leveling. The finishing rolling mill (FM) as a reversing mill has produced the plate steel through multiple pass rolling. The automatic gauge control (AGC) is employed to maintain the thickness tolerance. The high grade products are forming greater parts of the manufacturing and customers are requiring strict thickness margin. For this reason, the advanced AGC method is required instead of the conventional AGC based on the PI control. To overcome the slow response performance of the conventional AGC and the thickness measurement delay, a fuzzy AGC based on the thickness deviation and its trend is proposed in this paper. An embedded controller with the fuzzy AGC has been developed and implemented at the plate mill in POSCO. The fuzzy AGC has dynamically controlled the roll gap in real time with the programmable logic controller (PLC). On line tests have been performed for the general and TMCP products. As the results, the thickness deviation range (maximum - minimum of the inner plate) is averagely from 0.3 to 0.1 mm over the full length. The fuzzy AGC has improved thickness deviation and completely satisfied customer needs.

Generally, huge amounts of data traffic are generated by using broadcasting method to deliver sensing data to a sink node reliably so that it makes a severe network saturation problem resulting in unreliable data transfer. In order to handle this problem, a new congestion control protocol is required for supporting reliable data transfer, minimal use of energy and network resources at the same time in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, it proposes a Protocol to guarantee both a reliable transfer in data accuracy and minimum consumption of energy waste by using Hop-by-Hop sequence number and DSbACK(Delayed and Selective ACK Buffer Condition) scheme. In addition, it proves that reliability and energy efficiency are enhanced by the proposed method with the simulation results performed on TinyOS platform which is a component based built-in OS announced by UC Berkely with the performance comparison of other existing methods.

Generating motion of center of mass for biped robots is a challenging issue since biped robots can easily lose balance due to limited contact area between foot and ground. In this paper, we propose force control method to generate high-speed motion of the center of mass for horizontal direction without losing balancing condition. Contact consistent multi-body dynamics of the robot is used to calculate force for horizontal direction of the center of mass considering balance. The calculated force is applied for acceleration or deceleration of the center of mass to generate high speed motion. The linear inverted pendulum model is used to estimate motion of the center of mass and the estimated motion is used to select either maximum or minimum force to stop at goal position. The proposed method is verified by experiments using 12-DOF torque controlled human sized legged robot.

Device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular networks can bring significate benefits for improving the performance of mobile services. However, it hinges on elaborate resource sharing scheme to coordinate interference between cellular users and D2D pairs. We formulate a joint mode selection, link allocation and power control optimization problem for D2D communication sharing uplink resources in a multi-user cellular network and consider the efficiency and the fairness simultaneously. Due to the non-convex difficulty, we propose a three-step scheme: firstly, we conduct mode selection for D2D pairs based on a minimum distance metric after an admission control and obtain some cellular candidates for them. And then, a cellular candidate will be paired to each D2D pair based on fairness. Finally, we use Lagrangian Algorithm to formulate a joint power control strategy for D2D pairs and their reused cellular users and a closed-form of solution is derived. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithms converge in a short time. Moreover, both the sum rate of D2D pairs and the energy efficiency of cellular users are improved.
