  • In this paper, an optimal identification method using fuzzy-neural networks is proposed for modeling of nonlinear complex systems. The proposed fuzzy-neural modeling implements system structure and parameter identification using the intelligent schemes together with optimization theory, linguistic fuzzy implication rules, and neural networks(NNs) from input and output data of processes. Inference type for this fuzzy-neural modeling is presented as simplified inference. To obtain optimal model, the learning rates and momentum coefficients of fuzz-neural networks(FNNs) and parameters of membership function are tuned using genetic algorithm(GAs). For the purpose of its application to nonlinear processes, data for route choice of traffic problems and those for activated sludge process of sewage treatment system are used for the purpose of evaluating the performance of the proposed fuzzy-neural network modeling. The show that the proposed method can produce the intelligence model w th higher accuracy than other works achieved previously.

  • Direct write technologies provide flexible and economic means to manufacture low-cost large-area electronics. In this regard inkjet printing has frequently been used for the fabrication of electronic devices. Full advantage of this method, which is capable of reliable direct patterning with line and space dimensions in the 10 to 100 um regime, is only made with all-solution based processing. Among these printable electronic materials, silver and copper nanoparticles have been used as interconnecting materials. Specially, solutions of organic-encapsulated silver and copper nanoparticles may be printed and subsequently annealed to form low-resistance conductor patterns. In this talk, we describe novel processes for forming silver nanoplates and copper ion complex which have unique properties, and discuss the optimization of the printing/annealing processes to demonstrate plastic-compatible low-resistance conductors. By optimizing both the interconnecting materials and the surface treatments of substrate, it is possible to produce particles that anneal at low-temperatures (< $200^{\circ}C$) to form continuous films having low resistivity and appropriate work function for formation of rectifying contacts.

  • A brief introduction to NRC's research activities will be given with special emphasis on membrane processes. NIRC's membrane research group has been involved in many membrane research projects with industrial clients in various sectors of the industry. These projects generally were focused on using membranes for treating industrial wastewater streams for recycling process water, recovering of valuable components and meeting the environmental regulations. The group looked in to various aspects of process development dealing with membrane performance evaluation, optimization of operational parameters, determination of fouling propensities of membranes and simple cost analyses in some cases. Case studies dealing with process development for effluent treatment for the pulp & paper, mining & mineral processing and poultry processing industries will be discussed briefly.

  • Today, many middle-sized shipbuilding companies in Korea are experiencing strong competition from shipbuilding companies in other nations. This competition is particularly affecting small- and middle-sized shipyards, rather than the major shipyards that have their own support systems and development capabilities. The acquisition of techniques that would enable maximization of production efficiency and minimization of the gap between planning and execution would increase the competitiveness of small- and middle-sized Korean shipyards. In this paper, research on a simulation-based support system for ship production management, which can be applied to the shipbuilding processes of middle-sized shipbuilding companies, is presented. The simulation research includes layout optimization, load balancing, work stage operation planning, block logistics, and integrated material management. Each item is integrated into a network system with a value chain that includes all shipbuilding processes.

  • This paper studies a series of logical topology reconfiguration processes corresponding to a series of traffic demand changes in a ship backbone network. The proposed reconfiguration technique is to minimize costly changes of traffic forwarding paths and minimize the average hop distance of traffic forwarding paths in terms of ship backbone network performance simultaneously. Performance evaluation is conducted to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed reconfiguration technique. It shows that the proposed reconfiguration technique yields efficient performance in the entire series of reconfiguration processes.

  • In this study, three different die geometries were selected to understand the die characteristics in the film casting extrusion processes. First, large and small-scale T-dies were numerically simulated to observe the scaled-down effect on the flow inside the dies. Second, three different dies-keyhole, linear tapper coat-hanger die (LTCD), and curved tapper coat-hanger die (CTCD)-were numerically observed and discussed according to the mass flow rate. Finally, the die exit velocity profiles and die characteristics were observed and discussed based on the power-law index for the LTCD die. These numerical simulations and numerical data will aid the optimization of the die design in industrial fields.

  • In this article, we define Picard's three-step iteration process for the approximation of fixed points of Zamfirescu operators in an arbitrary Banach space. We prove a convergence result for Zamfirescu operator using the proposed iteration process. Further, we prove that Picard's three-step iteration process is almost T-stable and converges faster than all the known and leading iteration processes. To support our results, we furnish an illustrative numerical example. Finally, we apply the proposed iteration process to approximate the solution of a mixed Volterra-Fredholm functional nonlinear integral equation.

  • This study discusses application of the storm water management model (SWMM) to designing the sponge city facilities in the Athletes Village of Military World Games in Wuhan in October 2019. The SWMM was used to simulate the runoff processes and reduction efficiencies of the sponge city facilities. The runoffs of the sponge city facilities were compared with those of traditional drainage system for the design rainfall of 35.2mm and the rainfalls with different recurrence periods. The results show that the hign density sponge city facilities could meet the requirements for 80% of annual runoff control rate, SWMM can determine the scales of the sponge city facilities and effectively simulate the hydrological processes for different layout schemes. The simulation model is also helpful to making optimization of the sponge city facility layout.

  • Recently, as the industrial demand for small quantity batch production of sheet metal components, the application of dieless forming technology to production of these component rise with the advantages of the reduction in manufacturing cost and time. In dieless forming processes, the determination of moving path of tool plays an important role in producing successfully formed parts. In order to obtain the optimized moving path of tool avoiding forming failure, it is necessary to examine the forming limit of sheet material. Therefore, in this study, as the new criterion to evaluate the formability of sheet material in dieless forming processes FDD(feeding depth diagram) with respect to feeding depth and punch diameter is proposed. Thus, the FDD for the sheet materials of STS304 and Ti-grade2 were obtained from a series of FDT(feeding depth test). In addition the possibility of the application of FLD in judging forming severity in dieless forming processes was investigated by comparing the results of FE analyses based on FLD and experimental FDT.
