The swing motion control problem of a container hanging on the trolly is considered in the paper. In the container crane control problem, suppressing the residual swing motion of the container at the end of acceleration, deceleration or the case of that the unexpected disturbance input exists is main issue. For this problem, in general, many trolley motion control strategies are introduced and applied. In this paper, we introduce and synthesize a swing motion control system in which a small auxiliary mass is installed on the spreader made by ourselves. In this control system, the actuator reacting against the auxiliary mass applies inertial control forces to the container to reduce the swing motion in the desired manner. In many studies, the controllers used to suppress the vibration have been synthesized for the given mathematical model of plants. And, the designers have not been able to utilize the degree of freedom to adjust the structural parameters for the control object. To overcome this problem, so called 'Structure/control Simultaneous Method' is used. In this paper, the simultaneous design method is used to determine the optimum weight of moving mass such that the optimal system performance would be achieved. And the experimental result shows that the proposed control strategy is useful to the case of that the controlled system is exposed to the uncertainties and, robust to the unexpected disturbance inputs.

설계자는 설계를 진행시켜 가면서 많은 의사 결정을 내려야 한다. 그 결정은 크게 선택 결정과 타협 결정으로 나뉘어질 수 있다. 두 결정의 결과는 설계자의 의사에 크게 의존하기 때문에 설계자의 의사를 체계적이고 정확하게 반영시켜줄 필요가 있다. AHP 기법은 불분명한 선택 문제에 있어서 문제를 계층적으로 분석하여 평가함으로써 설계자의 의사를 체계적으로 반영시켜줄 수 있다. 또한 정성적인 성질들을 정량적인 판단 기준에 따라 평가함으로써 설계자의 의사를 보다 일관적으로 반영할 수 있다. 보통 공학 문제의 경우 하나의 설계 대안을 선택하고 또한 그 대안의 주요 치수를 동시에 결정해야 하는 결합된 문제이다. 이때 선택에 필요한 각 대안의 속성이 타협 문제 변수들의 함수로 표현되기 때문에 최적화 과정 중에 계속 변화하게 된다. 또한 여러 속성을 고려할 경우 자릿수와 단위가 모두 다르기 때문에 속성들의 평가가 표준적으로 이루어져야 한다. 이 부분에 학습된 인공 신경망을 도입함으로써 변화하는 속성치를 자동적으로 평가할 수 있으며 설계자의 의사와 경험적인 지식도 반영할 수 있게 하였다.

약 콘크리트 격납구조물은 구조적 안전성이 뛰어나고 경제적이므로 원자력발전소 격납건물, LNG 저장탱크 등에 널리 사용되고 있다. 격납구조물 중 지붕 돔의 형태는 구조적 안전성, 물량 및 시공 난이도에 큰 영향을 미치므로 최적의 두께와 곡률을 도출하고자 하는 노력이 필요하다. 한편 일반적으로 PSC 구조로 설계되는 링빔은 이러한 돔을 지지하여 벽체의 변형을 최소화시키는 역할을 하며, 단면 크기와 더불어 프리스트레스 수준을 적절히 결정하는 것이 설계의 핵심이 된다. 이 연구에서는 축대칭 회전쉘의 막이론을 적용하여 본설계 시의 유한요소해석에 앞서 돔과 링빔의 초기 형상이나 프리스트레스 수준을 효율적으로 결정할 수 있는 기법을 제안하였다. 이러한 기법을 국내에서 시공된 격납구조물의 돔과 링빔에 적용하여 분석하고 단면 형상이나 프리스트레싱 설계에 대한 개선 방안을 고찰하였다.

The sway motion control problem of a container hanging on the trolley is considered in this paper. In the container crane control problem, the main issue involves suppressing the residual swing motion of the container at the end of acceleration, during deceleration, or for an unexpected disturbance input. For this problem, in general, many trolley motion control strategies are introduced and applied. In this paper, we introduce and synthesize a swing motion control system, in which a small auxiliary mass is installed on the spreader. In this control system, the actuator reacting against the auxiliary mass applies inertial control forces to the container to reduce the swing motion in the desired manner.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Self-Organizing Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (SOFPNN) by means of consecutive optimization and also discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization. The network is based on a structurally as well as parametrically optimized fuzzy polynomial neurons (FPNs) conducted with the aid of information granulation and genetic algorithms. In structurally identification of FPN, the design procedure applied in the construction of each layer of a SOFPNN deals with its structural optimization involving the selection of preferred nodes (or FPNs) with specific local characteristics and addresses specific aspects of parametric optimization. In addition, the fuzzy rules used in the networks exploit the notion of information granules defined over system's variables and formed through the process of information granulation. That is, we determine the initial location (apexes) of membership functions and initial values of polynomial function being used in the premised and consequence part of the fuzzy rules respectively. This granulation is realized with the aid of the hard c-menas clustering method (HCM). For the parametric identification, we obtained the effective model that the axes of MFs are identified by GA to reflect characteristic of given data. Especially, the genetically dynamic search method is introduced in the identification of parameter. It helps lead to rapidly optimal convergence over a limited region or a boundary condition. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, the model is experimented with using two time series data(gas furnace process, nonlinear system data, and NOx process data).

급속한 경제 발전과 도시 인구 증가는 기존의 인프라의 개선과 확대를 위한 지하 공간 활용의 필요성을 증가 시킨다. 쉴드 TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine)은 높은 굴진율과 최소한의 지반 교란이 필요한 지하 구조물 설계에 널리 이용되어 왔다. 허용 추력과 커터헤드 토크는 적절한 TBM 타입을 선택에 있어서, 중요한 설계 인자 이므로 TBM 공사 시에 적절히 산정되어야 한다. 하지만, 기존의 추력과 토크의 추정 모델은 오직 경험적인 인자와 TBM 직경에만 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 이는 최적의 추력 유압 시스템과 적절한 유압부품의 선택을 어렵게 한다. 본 연구에서는 4개의 추력 및 토크 계산 모델을 설명하고 정리하였으며, 각각의 모델들을 비교 및 논의하였다.

Underwater welding by a gravity arc welding process was investigated by using six types of coated electrodes and SM41A steel plates of 10 mm thickness as base metal and it was ascertained that this process may be put to practical use. Main results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. Angle of electrode affects no influence on bead appearance and the proper range of welding current and diameter of electrode for the high titanium oxide type is relatively wider than that for the ilmenite type. And the lime titania type, high titanium oxide type and ilmenite type of domestic coated arc welding electrodes of .phi.4 mm could attain the soundest underwater welded joints which contain no welding imperfection. 2. According to macro-structure, micro-structure and hardness distribution inspectionson underwater welded joint, the area between the HAZ and the surface of the weld in neighbourhood of the bond has the maximum hardness value. The structure of these parts is martensite and bainite. Other parts contain mocro-ferrite, micro-pearlite structure, which contain soundness of welded joint free from weld imperfection. 3. On consideration of both tensile strength of more than 100% joint efficiency and sufficient impact value, the welding condition which can get optimal welding strength is heat input of 1,400-1,500 J/mm, current of 200-215 ampere (voltage of 32-33 volts) in the case of lime titania type electrode. 4. Underwater welding strength (tensile strength, impact strength) depends on heat input (or current) quantitatively and they have the relationship of parabolic function. Each experimental equation has a high reliability and its percent of mean error is 4.14%. 5. It is suggested that the optimal design of weld strength by welding condition (current, heat input) could be utilized for a quality control of underwater welding.

Placing sensors at appropriate locations is an important task in the design of an efficient structural health monitoring (SHM) system for a large-scale civil structure. In this paper, a hybrid optimization algorithm called virus monkey algorithm (VMA) based on the virus theory of evolution is proposed to seek the optimal placement of sensors. Firstly, the dual-structure coding method is adopted instead of binary coding method to code the solution. Then, the VMA is designed to incorporate two populations, a monkey population and a virus population, enabling the horizontal propagation between the monkey and virus individuals and the vertical inheritance of monkey's position information from the previous to following position. Correspondingly, the monkey population in this paper is divided into the superior and inferior monkey populations, and the virus population is divided into the serious and slight virus populations. The serious virus is used to infect the inferior monkey to make it escape from the local optima, while the slight virus is adopted to infect the superior monkey to let it find a better result in the nearby area. This kind of novel virus infection operator enables the coevolution of monkey and virus populations. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed VMA is demonstrated by designing the sensor network of the Canton Tower, the tallest TV Tower in China. Results show that innovations in the VMA proposed in this paper can improve the convergence of algorithm compared with the original monkey algorithm (MA).

In this paper, magneto-rheological(MR) damper is studied for vibration control of large infra structures under earthquake. Generally, active control devices need a large control force and a high power supply system to reduce the vibration effectively. Large and miss tuned control force may induce the dangerous situation such that the generated large control force acts to amplify the structural vibration. Recently, to overcome the weaknesses of the active control, the semi-active control method is suggested by many researchers. Semi-active control uses the passive control device of which the characteristics can be modified. Control force of the semi-active device is not generated from the actuator with power supply. It is generated as a dynamic reaction force of the device same as in the passive control case, so the control system is inherently stable and robust. Unlike the case of passive control, control force of semi-active control is adjusted depending on the measured response of the structure, so the vibration can be reduced more effectively against various unknown environmental loads. Magneto-rheological(MR) damper is one of the semi-active devices. Dynamic characteristics of the MR material can be changed by applying the magnetic fields. So the control of MR damper needs only small power. Response time of MR to the input voltage is very short, so the high performance control is possible. MR damper has a high force capacity so it is adequate to the vibration control of large infra structure. Because MR damper has a nonlinear property, normal control method used in active control may not be effective. Clipped optimal control, modified bang-bang control etc. have been suggested to MR damper by many researchers. In this study, sliding mode fuzzy control(SMFC) is applied to MR damper. Genetic algorithm is used for the controller tuning. To verify the applicability of MR damper and suggested algorithm, numerical simulation on the aseismic control is carried out. Simulation model is three-story building structure, which was used in the paper of Dyke, et al. The control performance is compared with clipped optimal control. The present results indicate that the SMFC algorithm can reduce the earthquake-induced vibration very effectively.
