  • Recently, advanced transit systems are being constructed to reduce traffic congestions in metropolitan areas. For these projects, curved bridges with various curvatures are required. Many curved bridges in the past were constructed using aesthetically unpleasant straight beams with curved slabs or expensive curved steel box girders with curved slabs. Therefore, many recent studies have been performed to develop less expensive and very safe precast prestressed concrete (PSC) curved girder. One method of reducing the construction cost of a PSC curved girder is to use a reusable formwork that can easily be adjusted to change the curvature and length of a girder. A reusable and curvature/dimension adjustable formwork called Multi-tasking formwork is developed for constructing efficient precast PSC curved girders. With the Multi-tasking formwork, two 40 m precast PSC box girders with different curvatures were constructed to build a two-girder curved bridge for a static flexural test to evaluate its safety and serviceability performance. The static flexural test results showed that the initial cracking load was 1400 kN, exceeding the design cracking load of 450 kN. Also, the code allowed deflection of 50 mm occurred at a load of 1800 kN, verifying the safety and serviceability of the precast PSC curved bridge constructed using the multi-tasking formwork.

  • In this study, a neural network method performing both Detection and Classification of diseases and insects in paprika is proposed with Multi-Tasking U-net. Paprika on farms does not have a wide variety of diseases in this study, only two classes such as powdery mildew and mite, which occur relatively frequently are made as the targets. Aiming to this, a U-net is used as a backbone network, and the last layers of the encoder and the decoder of the U-net are utilized for classification and segmentation, respectively. As the result, the encoder of the U-net is shared for both of detection and classification. The training data are composed of 680 normal leaves, 450 mite-damaged leaves, and 370 powdery mildews. The test data are 130 normal leaves, 100 mite-damaged leaves, and 90 powdery mildews. Its test results shows 89% of recognition accuracy.

  • In this study, three types of large scale multi-tasking machine tools together with core technologies involved have been developed and introduced; a multi-tasking machine tool for large scale marine engine crankshafts, a multi-tasking vertical lathe for windmill parts, and a large scale 5-axis machine tool of gantry type. Several special purpose devices has been necessarily developed for the purpose of handling and machining big and heavy workpieces accurately, such as PTD (Pin Turning Device) with revolving ring spindle for machining eccentric crankshaft pins, hydrostatic rotary table and steady rest for supporting and resting heavy workpieces, and 2-axis automatic swiveling head for high-quality free surface machining. Core technologies have been also developed and adopted on their detail design stage; 1) structural design optimization with FEM structural analysis, 2) theoretical hydrostatic analysis for the PTD and rotary table bearings, 3) box-in-box type cross-rail and octagonal ram design to secure machine rigidity and accuracy, 4) constant spindle rpm control against gravitational torque due to unbalanced workpiece.

  • This paper describes a case study on dynamic characteristics analysis of a 5-axis multi-tasking machine tool of ram-head typed. Natural frequency and corresponding vibration modes of the machine tool structure were obtained by using both FEM modal analysis and an experimental modal test(impulse hammer test). Both the theoretical and experiment analysis results showed good agreement with each other. Finally, some discussion and review, from the view point of resonance vibration and/or mode coupled chatter, were made based on the analysis results.

  • A new genetic algorithm for the solution of a multi-tasking problem is presented in this paper. The approach introduces innovative genetic operation that guides the genetic algorithm more directly towards better quality of the population. A wide variety of standard genetic parameters are explored, and results allow the comparison of performance for cases both with and without the new operator. The proposed algorithm improves the convergence speed by reducing the number of generations required to identify a near-optimal solution, significantly reducing the convergence time in each instance.

  • Traditionally, simulation-based learning games which are known as flight-simulators have been constructed as a black-box game. Within a black-box game, game-players can view and modify only a part of model parameters. Game-players cannot change the structure of a simulation model. In a black-box game, game-players cannot understand and learn the system structure which is responsible for the system behavior. In this paper, the multi-tasking at the level of operating systems is exploited to enhance the transparency of simulation-based learning game. The white-box game or transparent-box game allows game-players ot view and modify the model structure. The multi-tasking solution for white-box learning game is implemented with Smalltalk language on MS-/windows operating system.

  • In this paper, we describe the problems which can happen during multi-tasking process in the Windows operating system (OS) environment. To cope with the problems, multiple-windows manager program is proposed in this paper. If we use the proposed multiple-windows manager program with three virtual screen, we can obtain the effect like using four Windows OS and thus we can improve the tardy speed and the high complexity for multi-tasking process.

  • GNARL is the runtime system of the Gun NYU Ada'95 compiler(GNAT). It implements the multi-tasking features of the Ada programming language and together they provide a freely available test-bed for experimentation in language, compiler, and runtime support for real-time programming. In this paper, we give an overview of GNAT and GNARL. We then describe the results of our research toward improving efficiency, predictability, and reliability of Ada'95 multi-tasking.
