A new composite control method for a carriage balancing single inverted pendulum system is proposed and applied to swing up the pendulum and to stabilize it under the state constraint. The target inverted pendulum system has an extremely limited length of the cart(below 16cm). The proposed swing-up controller comprises a sliding mode control algorithm and an optimal control algorithm based on two regions: the region near the inverted unstable equilibrium position and the rest of the state space including the downward stable equilibrium position. The sliding mode controller uses a switching control action to converge along the specified path(hyperplane) derived from energy equation from a state around the path to desired state(standing position). An optimal control method is also used to guarantee the stability at unstable equilibrium position. Compared with the reported controllers, it is simpler and easier to implement. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of this controller.

The study of unsteady gas exchange processes in the inlet and exhaust systems of the single-cylinder 4-stroke cycle spark ignition engine is presented in this paper. The generalized method of characteristics including friction, heat transfer, change of flow area and entropy gradients was used for solving the equations defining the gas exchange process. The path line calculation was also conducted to allow for calculation of the gas composition and entropy change along the path lines, and of the variable specific heat due to the change of temperature and composition. As the result of the simulation, the properties at each point in the inlet and exhaust pipe, pressure and temperature in the cylinder, and charging efficiency were obtained. Pumping loss and residual gas fraction were also computed. The effect of engine speed, exhaust and inlet pipe length on the pumping loss and charging efficiency were studied showing that the results were in agreement with what has been known from experiments.

해수의 물리적 성질 변화에 의한 수중음속 변화는 수중음파 전파에 커다란 영향을 미친다. 매질변동에 의한 음파 전파경로 변동특성, 즉 음파 도달시간 변동에 의한 매질변위량 추정으로 해양을 탐사하는“해양음향 토모그라피”를 운용하기 위하여 비균질 매질에서의 음파 전파경로 파악이 우선이다. 수심이 일정한 비균질한 매질에서의 음파 전파경로를 파악하기 위해 파동방정식의 해를 Ray theory에 의거 ray path를 구하고 송,수신기 사이를 연결하는 eigenray 정보를 얻었다. 음원의 주파수가 400Hz($\pm$25Hz), pulse length가 20ms인 LFM pulse를 사용하였다. 이 음원을 동해의 최소음속층에서 송,수신하였을 경우 음원에서 150Km 떨어진 수신기에 도달한 신호는 평균음속분포 일 때 보다 약 66ms 정도 빨리 도착한다. 또한 Eigenray 정보에 의거 모의된 수신신호는 토모그라피 운용을 위한 필수 조건인 ray path의 식별, 안정성, 그리고 분해능을 만족한다. 또한 모의 수신신호 음파 도달시간 변동 분석으로 송,수신기 사이의 매질 변동을 파악 할 수 있다.

Because of unreplenishable power resources, reducing node energy consumption to extend network lifetime is an important requirement in wireless sensor networks. In addition both path length and path cost are important metrics affecting sensor lifetime. We propose a dynamic clustering scheme based on location in wireless sensor networks. Our scheme can localize the effects of route failures, reduce control traffic overhead, and thus enhance the reachability to the destination. We have evaluated the performance of our clustering scheme through a simulation and analysis. We provide simulation results showing a good performance in terms of approximation ratios.

The toolpath generation for 3D shaped parts with adaptive isocurve is more precise than existing methods, and the machining time can be reduced. Whether adaptive isocurves are inserted or not is determined by the surface shape, but the number of curves inserted and the total path length vary with initial step lengths. In this paper, therefore, by introducing the concept of the scale factor into the initial path interval ; toolpath was regenerated.

In order to improve the adaptability of rice transplanter to seeding with different length when transplanting multicropping rice in south China. The seedling separating planting mechanism is resynthesized in the paper. According to the agronomy requirements of seedling's transplanting, optimum motional path of the tip point of planting needle is obtained. by applying the established kinematic model of the separating planting mechanism, the relevant software is compiled. On the basis of the features of the problem, the constrained optimization method is utilized to solve the problem with 24 restrictions. Thus, the optimum structure parameters are obtained to satisfy the path points accurately.

In this paper, we discuss the mesh segmentation problem which divides a given 3D mesh into several disjoint sets. To solve the problem, we propose a greedy method based on the merging priority metric defined for representing the geometric properties of meaningful parts. The proposed priority metric is a weighted function using five geometric parameters, those are, a distribution of Gaussian map, boundary path concavity, boundary path length, cardinality, and segmentation resolution. In special, we can control by setting up the weight values of the proposed geometric parameters to obtain visually better mesh segmentation. Finally, we carry out an experiment on several 3D mesh models using the proposed methods and visualize the results.

This paper describes an interpolation method for a parametric surface. A parametric surface is approximated to triangular mesh surfaces and then the basic paths are achieved. As the generated path is a series of linear segments, this algorithm can be easily adapted to general NC controllers. The generated paths have minimal transfer length and are gouge-free within the approximation tolerance. The problems, induced when the paths are represented by linear segments, are overcome without making any path deviation by this algorithm. This algorithm saves machining time by eliminating overdetermined tool paths and keeping the desired average feedrate, which improve productivity and lead to lower production costs.

This paper is mainly forcused on the application of modal analysis In analyze the geometrically non-linear buckling behaviors of large span spatial structures, and the evaluation of each eigen mode affected post-buckling behaviors and buckling loads. Modal analysis is applied . to derivation of the system matrices transforming actual displacement space into generalized coordinates space represented by coefficients multiplied in the linear combination of eigen modes which are independent and orthogonal each other. By using modal analysis method, it will be expected to save the calculating time by computer extremely. For example, we can obtain the satisfactorily good results by using about 7% of total eigen modes only in case of single layer latticed dome. And we can decrease the possibility of divergence on the bifurcation point in the calculation of post-buckling path. Arc-length method and Newton-Raphson iteration method are used to calculate the nonlinear equilibrium path.

Flood search algorithm is known to be an effective routing mechanism for tactical application, since it provides high degree of survivability and robustness. But it is known that it has significant drawbacks with respect to the network efficiency [1]. We consider a tactical circuit-switched grid network with a maximum of four links and two priority classes of voice traffic, Using the minimum first-derivative length (MFDL) path, we improve the blocking probability performance of the circuit-switched network without increasing the call set-up time and processor loading of the algorithm.
