In order to improve the traffic enviroments in the urban streets of Seoul, the computer controlled traffic signal system was installed on 45 intersections at 1980. Afterward, yearly expansion was done to the numbers of 132 intersections and 232 loop detectors. The problems of timing plans were discussed, mainly pedestrian crossing timing as well as the generations of split and offset. The broad urban streets more than 30m require long phasing time of pedestrians, even though the equivalent or correspondent traffic volume is rare. The configuration of computer system for traffic control was disscussed in terms of control strategy. An overview also given. The improvements were measured at every quater. The travel speed improved to 42%, delay time reduced to 41% and number of stops to 43% respectively.

The goal of this paper is optimal switching angle of switched reluctance motor drive system fur maximum energy ratio. A new magnetizing method with a low-frequency increasing the energy conversion ratio that is related to the efficiency of motor is proposed. As the results, it improved the efficiency about 2[%]. And a torque ripple is also sufficiently reduced compared with that of the conventional approach. In order tn start softly regardless of large ripple torque, the profile of phase current is predicted by the ANFIS, and current control mode was adapted when it is operated under the starting speed. Variable implementations en the fields will guarantee the more practical drive system.

In this paper, the authors propose a current control system for three phase PWM AC/DC converter without the source voltage sensors. The sinusoidal input current and unity effective power factor are realised based on the estimated source voltage in the controller. The estimation of source voltage is performed based on Luenberger observer using actual currents. The estimated source voltage is used to accomplish unity power factor. The proposed method is proved by simulations.

This paper presents a systematic and straightforward fault estimation approach for process fault detection. isolation and accommodation. The approach includes the design of a reduced-order observer and an algebraic-fault estimator. The observer is designed for an unknown input and fault-free system, which is obtained by coordinate transformations of original systems with unknown inputs and faults. The observer information is devoted to- the fault estimation for fault detection and isolation. The fault estimates can be used to form an additional control input to accommodate the fault. The suggested scheme is verified through simulation studies performed on the control of a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft in the vertical plane.

In order to control and balance axial thrust of turbo machine, many types of balancing devices are used but most of them are complicated and sometimes cause troubles. In this study, a very simple device of using shallow grooves mounted on a casing wall, known as "J-Groove", is proposed and studied experimentally and theoretically. The result shows that 70% of axial thrust in an industrial 4-stage centrifugal pump can be reduced at the best efficiency point. Moreover, the analytical method of "interfered gap flow" is established and a simple formula which can determine the optimum dimension of groove and its location is proposed.

In order to improve the performance of a GPS/DR integration system, the error sources of DR sensors should be modeled accurately, This results in the increases in the dimension of the integration filter and, consequently, computational load becomes large. To reduce the computational load, suggested in this paper is a decoupled GPS/DR integration scheme that consists of two cascaded Kalman filters. The GPS velocity output is used in the first filter to calibrate the DR sensor and to fix the velocity as well. The velocity from the first filter is fed to the second filter where the position is corrected using the GPS position output. Experimental results show that the proposed integration scheme has positioning performance comparable to the conventional coupled one, while its computation is reduced to about 2/3.

In this paper, we propose a robust controller design of RTP(Rapid Thermal Processing) system using structured uncertainty approach. Using the weighted mixed sensitivity function, we solve the robust stability problem against disturbance and temperature variation, and design a $\mu$ controller using curve fitting method against structured uncertainty. Also the reduction method should be requried because of the difficulty of implementaion with the obtained high order controller. We dal with robust stability and performance of RTP system by the design of $\mu$ controller for original model and Schur balanced reduced model. Finally the simulation results are proposed to show the validity of the proposed method.

This paper proposes a new adaptation algorithm with which a model reference adaptive control can give a local boundedness of the tracking error applied to a continuous-time linear time-invariant single-input single-output plant whose reduced-order model is of relative degree 1 and whose unmodeled dynamics may be represented in a sigular perturbation form. With the addition of an offset term and an extra adaptation structure, this algorithm is shown to have a robustness property in the sense that this gives zero residual tracking errors when the unmodeled dynamics are disappeared.

In order to observe the effect of tannin on plasma lipid status in human, tannin was supplemented with increasing amounts from 0 to 0.5, 1.0, 2.5g/d early week until 4th week. The results obtained from this research are a follows. Concentration of total lipid in plasma was significantly lower compared to the control group when the level of tannin supplementation was 0.5g/day while the level of tannin 1.0g/day and 2.5g/day did not affect to change the total lipid level. There seems to be no obvious improvement of the plasm lipid status respect to different tannin levels. Despite the result, the excretion of total bile acids in feces was increased and total lipid in plasma was reduced significantly during first time supplementation compared the control.

This paper studies stand-alone photovoltaic array for solar lighting lamp. The solar lighting lamp has PV modules, batteries. and charge & discharge system. The charge efficiency is improved for the control of each battery which is divided the charge from the discharge to change the structure of existing solar lighting lamp charge & discharge system. so, the charge and discharge times are reduced of 50%. and the depth of discharge control can be controlled in the discharge cut off voltage. This can be effective of battery use. If a battery is out of order, this system can be executed for a regular period. so we saved the repair cost and developed of system's stabilization. It is possible economical effect to apply for solar lighting lamp used photovoltaic array.
