An algorithm is developed that enables a single-phase matrix converter (SPMC) to perform functions of a generalized single phase power electronics converter such as acting as a frequency changer, rectifier, inverter, and chopper. This reduces the need for new converter hardware. The algorithm is implemented first on computer simulation software Orcad Capture CIS version 9.1. Simulation results are presented for five types of converters with a control input variable that decides the 1) type of converter and 2) type of output waveform. The simulated results verify the working and operation of a generalized converter based on SPMC. Simulated results are verified with experimental results. Hardware design is obtained using readily available ICs and other components. The trigger circuit has been tested qualitatively by observing waveforms on CRO. The operation of the proposed system has been found to be satisfactory.

In this work the Dynamic Matrix Control method is applied to control the grade change operations in paper mills. Paper process trained by neural network regards a real-plant. The model obtained with operation data is used to achieve DMC. Results of simulations for DMC control of grade change operations are compared with plant operation data response. From the comparison, we can see that the proposed DMC method exhibits faster response for the grade change of paper and achieves stable steady-state.

Self Organizing Map (SOM) is a neural network that is effective in classifying patterns that form the feature map by extracting characteristics of the input data. In this study, we propose an algorithm to determine the cell formation and the machine layout within the cell for the cell formation problem with operation sequence using the SOM. In the proposed algorithm, the output layer of the SOM is a one-dimensional structure, and the SOM is applied to the parts and the machine in two steps. The initial cell is formed when the formed clusters is grouped largely by the utilization of the machine within the cell. At this stage, machine cell are formed. The next step is to create a flow matrix of the all machine that calculates the frequency of consecutive forward movement for the machine. The machine layout order in each machine cell is determined based on this flow matrix so that the machine operation sequence is most reflected. The final step is to optimize the overall machine and parts to increase machine layout efficiency. As a result, the final cell is formed and the machine layout within the cell is determined. The proposed algorithm was tested on well-known cell formation problems with operation sequence shown in previous papers. The proposed algorithm has better performance than the other algorithms.

Exceptional Elements(E.E) are generally eliminated by a machine duplication or a subcontract in cellular manufacturing system. One of the advantages in FMS consists of machines capable of multi-processing. This paper presents a method that eliminates E.Es by tool duplication. First, we develop the exceptional operation similarity(EOS) by machine cell-operation incidence matrix and part-operation incidence matrix. The EOS indicates a similarity of unperformable operations in each part when two exceptional parts are assigned to a machine cell. Secondly, a mathematical model to minimize tool duplication is developed by the EOS. Finally, a heuristic algorithm is developed to reflect dynamic situation in process of elimination of exceptional elements by the EOS and the mathematical model. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the algorithm.

In designing the controller by changing the weighting matrix for the pirpose of satisfying constraints, the physical meaning of weighting matrix may disapperar and the system may not yield best performance because operation condition such as periodic disturbance was not considered. In this paper, the weighting matrix is fixed and controller is designed to minimize the new performance index to reduce the effects of periodic-type disturbances. This method is applied to design the satellite controller to verify the effetiveness.

An optimal control approach to robust control design is proposed in this study for rigid robotic systems under the unknown load and the other uncertainties. The uncertainties are quadratically bounded for some positive definite matrix. Iterative method to find the matrix is shown. Simulations arc made for a weight-lifting operation of a two-link manipulator and the robust control performance of robotic systems by the proposed algorithm is remarkable.

Reverse matrix converters, which can step up voltages, are suitable for applications with source voltages that are lower than load voltages, such as generator systems. Reverse matrix converter topologies are advantageous because they do not require additional components to conventional matrix converters. In this paper, a detection method and a post-fault modulation strategy to operate a converter as close as possible to its desired normal operation under the open-switch fault condition in the rectifier stage are proposed. An open-switch fault in the rectifier stage of a reverse matrix converter causes current distortions and voltage ripples in the system. Therefore, fault-tolerant control for open-switch faults is required to improve the reliability of a system. The proposed strategy determines the appropriate switching stages from among the remaining healthy switches of the converter. This is done based on reference currents or voltages. The performance of the proposed strategy is experimentally verified.

This paper propose the method to derive RM(Reed-Muller) expansion coefficients for Multiple-Valued function. The general method to obtain RM expansion coefficient for p valued n variable is derivation of single variable transform matrix and expand it n times using Kronecker product. The transform matrix used is p$^{n}$ $\times$ p$^{n}$ matrix. In this case the size of matrix increases depending on the augmentation of variables and the operation is complicated. Thus, to solving the problem, we propose derivation of RM expansion coefficients using p$\times$p transform matrix and Karnaugh-map.
