In this paper, we propose an efficient control method that can be transformed into a general building control problem for building structure control using these reliability criteria. To facilitate the calculation of controller H∞, an efficient solution method based on Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) is introduced, namely H∞-based LMI control. In addition, a self-tuning predictive grey fuzzy controller is proposed to solve the problem caused by wrong parameter selection to eliminates the effect of dynamic coupling between degrees of freedom (DOF) in Self-Tuning Fuzzy Controllers. We prove stability using Lyapunov's stability theorem. To check the applicability of the proposed method, the proposed controller is applied and the control characteristics are determined. The simulation assumes system uncertainty in the controller design and emphasizes the use of acceleration feedback as a practical consideration. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed controller is impressive, stable, and consistent with the performance of LMI-based methods. Therefore, an effective control method is suitable for seismic reinforcement of civil buildings.

In this paper, a new energy-efficient semi-active hybrid bulk damper is developed that is cost-effective for use in structural applications. In this work, the possibility of active and semi-active component configurations combined with suitable control algorithms, especially vibration control methods, is explored. The equations of motion for a container bridge equipped with an MDOF Mass Tuned Damper (M-TMD) system are established, and the combination of excitation, adhesion, and control effects are performed by a proprietary package and commercial custom submodel software. Systematic methods for the synthesis of structural components and active systems have been used in many applications because of the main interest in designing efficient devices and high-performance structural systems. A rational strategy can be established by properly controlling the master injection frequency parameter. Simulation results show that the multiscale model approach is achieved and meets accuracy with high computational efficiency. The M-TMD system can significantly improve the overall response of constrained structures by modestly reducing the critical stress amplitude of the frame. This design can be believed to build affordable, safe, environmentally friendly, resilient, sustainable infrastructure and transportation.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a scalable grey predictive controller with unavoidable random delays. Grey prediction is proposed to solve problems caused by incorrect parameter selection and to eliminate the effects of dynamic coupling between degrees of freedom (DOFs) in nonlinear systems. To address the stability problem, this study develops an improved gray-predictive adaptive fuzzy controller, which can not only solve the implementation problem by determining the stability of the system, but also apply the Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) law to calculate Fuzzy change parameters. Fuzzy logic controllers manipulate robotic systems to improve their control performance. The stability is proved using Lyapunov stability theorem. In this article, the authors compare different controllers and the proposed predictive controller can significantly reduce the vibration of offshore platforms while keeping the required control force within an ideal small range. This paper presents a robust fuzzy control design that uses a model-based approach to overcome the effects of modeling errors. To guarantee the asymptotic stability of large nonlinear systems with multiple lags, the stability criterion is derived from the direct Lyapunov method. Based on this criterion and a distributed control system, a set of model-based fuzzy controllers is synthesized to stabilize large-scale nonlinear systems with multiple delays.

Fuzzy controller is one of the succeed controller used in the process control in case of model uncertainties. But it my be difficult to fuzzy controller to articulate the accumulated knowledge to encompass all circumstance. Hence, it is essential to provide a tuning capability. There are many parameters in fuzzy controller can be adapted, scale factor tuning of normalized fuzzy controller is one of the adaptation parameter. Two adaptation methods are implemented in this work on an experimental thermal process, which simulate heating process in liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) recovery process in one of petrochemical industries: Gradient decent (GD) adaptation method; supervisory fuzzy controller. A comparison between the two methods is discussed.

자기암석학적인 연구를 화강암에 적용시키기 위해서는 먼저 화강암의 자성 함량, 즉, 대자율에 대한 전반적인 이해와 암석의 화학적인 연구 기반을 바탕으로 화강암의 자기적 특성을 규명해야 한다. 이를 위해서는 자기 암석학적인 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 자성광물특성, 전암의 자기성질, 암석학적 연구, 지화학적 연구와 자기이상 특성을 연구하여 암석에 기록되어 있는 자기특성을 이해함으로서 좀 더 명확한 지질학적인 해석과 자기탐사에서의 지질학적 응용을 증대시킬 수 있다. 그러므로 이 연구에서는 국내의 화강암체들 중 포천, 지포리, 금산, 남원, 속리산, 용담, 태백산 지역, 마산, 진동화강암체 등 시대별, 지구조적으로 서로 다른 화강암들에 대한 대자율을 측정하고 이를 암석화학적 자료들과 비교하였으며 그 결과 암석의 진화경로, 지구조적인 차이, 화강암이 생성되는 암석화학적인 환경, 화강암의 정치심도에 따라 대자율이 반드시 정비례적이지는 않지만 서로간에 상관관계를 보이고 있음을 알 수 있다.

As huge energy transfer systems like a nuclear power plant, steam power plant and petrochemical plant are operated for a long time, mechanical properties are changed by degradation. The life time of the systems can be affected by the mechanical properties. BI(Ball Indentation) test has a potential to replace conventional fracture tests like a uniaxial tensile test, fracture toughness test, hardness test and so on. In this paper, we would like to present the ageing evaluation technique by the BI method. The four classes of the thermally aged 1Cr-!mo-0.25V specimens were prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method. Tensile tests, fracture toughness tests, hardness tests and BI tests were performed. The results of the BI tests were in good agreement with fracture characteristics by a standard fracture test method within 5%. The IDE(Indentation Deformation Energy) of a BI technique as a new parameter for evaluating a degradation was suggested and the new IDE parameter clearly depicts the degradation degree.

산화형 폴리에틸렌 왁스 제조에 있어서 주요 반응인자인 사용 왁스의 물성, 산화시간, 산화온도, 공기의 주입량 등에 따른 산가의 변화와 산화에 따른 폴리머의 물성을 분석하였다. 실험결과 주어진 반응조건 하에서 산화온도에 대한 산가의 변화는 $160^{\circ}C$까지는 증가하였지만 $170^{\circ}C$에서는 오히려 산가가 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 공기 주입량에 비례하여 산가는 증가하였다. 또한 사용한 왁스의 분자량이 낮을수록 산가가 높았다. 분자량과 밀도차가 공존하는 시료의 산화반응에서는 가지의 길이, 수 등에 의한 밀도보다는 분자량에 의한 영향이 큰 것으로 생각되었다. 산화가 진행됨에 따라 분자량은 감소하고 분자량 분포는 넓어짐을 알 수 있었다. 온화한 조건 하에서 고산가를 얻기 위하여 자유라디칼 개시제를 촉매로 사용하였는데 같은 조건 하에서 무촉매인 경우에 비하여 고산가의 산화형 왁스를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 DCPO(dicumylperoxide), HOPO(t-butyl peroxy 2-ethyl heaxanoate), BPO(butylperoxide) 순의로 반감기가 긴 촉매가 효율적이었다.

A number of hydrophilic acrylic comonomers were incorporated into styrene-butadiene soap-free emulsion polymerization. It was found that reaction rate decreased according to : AN>AA>MMA>EA>IA>AAM>MA>HEMA. It was also observed that reaction rate increased with decreasing H-bonding factor contribution to the solubility parameter of the hydrophilic comonoer. The SBR latexes were very monodisperse with the particle size distribution of $1.03{\times}1.12$. Since growth rate is proportional to polymerization time, the difference in conversion rates between various comonomers was resulted from the particle number density of SBR latexes for the various hydrophilic comonomers. It was also found that the colloidal stability of the latexes was excellent because no external emulsifier was incorporated.

For fitness-for-service evaluation of high temperature plant components with defects, crack growth life must be assessed properly as indicated in the recent draft of API 579 code. Type 308 stainless steel has been widely used as a field weld material in the petrochemical industry. In this study, creep crack data of type 308 stainless steel are collected and re-analyzed using $C_t$ as a characterizing fracture parameter. A unique da/dt versus $C_t$ relationship was obtained despite of difference of creep deformation constant of the reviewed materials and specimen geometry of the tested specimens. The obtained results can be employed for crack growth life assessment and fitness-for-service evaluation for the cracks in high temperature components. It is also argued that since the effect of creep properties and other material variability on the creep crack growth behavior would be minor the obtained model may be applied for most of the 308 stainless steels.
