The EMS system requires a very delicate suspension control to maintain constant air-gap between the magnet and the guide-way rail. To maintain a constant air-gap with attraction force, the EMS system dynamics is changed according to uncertainties and disturbances, and it also requires reliability against component failures. Since uncertainties and component failures are frequently caused in EMS system, it is very important to develop the robust and reliable control system. In this paper, we consider the design problem for robust and reliable controller in the presence of uncertainties and component failures.

A crane is very important mechanical systems in industrial applications to move huge objects. Especially, in marine port terminals, it is used to place container boxes at desired position within given operating time. However, such system is faced with environmental disturbance such as wind from the sea, thus crane control system is required to cope with this nature. This paper proposed robust and adaptive control algorithm of a complicated 3D crane against the environmental disturbance. We simplify a mathematical design procedure to derive our control algorithm. We conduct real-time experiment using a crane simulator to evaluate its superiority and reliability.

This paper details a robust and efficient algorithm for point classification with respect to a polygon in 2D real number domain. The concept of tolerance makes this algorithm robust and consistent. It enables to define‘on-boundary’ , which can be interpreted as either‘in-’or‘out-’side region, and to manage rounding errors in floating point computation. Also the tolerance is used as a measure of reliability of point classifications. The proposed algorithm is based on a ray-intersection technique known as the most efficient, in which intersections between a ray originating from a given test point and the boundary of a region are counted. An odd number of intersections indicates that the point is inside region. For practical examples the algorithm is most efficient because most edges of the polygon region are processed by simple bit operations.

Brushless DC(BLDC) motor have been increasingly used in machine tools and robotics applications due to the reliability and the efficiency. In control of BLDC motor, it is important to construct the controller which is robust to parameter variations and external disturbances. Variable structure controller(VSC) has been known as a powerful tool in robust control of time varying systems. In practical systems, however, VSC has a high frequency chattering which deteriorates system performances. In this paper, a binary controller(BC) which takes the form of VSC and MRAC combined is presented to solve this problem. BC consists of the primary loop controller and the external loop controller to change the gain of primary loop controller smoothly. So it can generate the continuous control input and is insensitive to parameter variations in the given domain. To confirm the validity, various investigations of control characteristics for various design parameters in a position control system of BLDC motor are carried out.

The focus of this paper is on the development and implementation of a methodology for automated design of discrete structural systems. The research is aimed at utilizing Genetic Algorithms (GA) as an automated design tool. Several key enhancements are made to the simple GA in order to increase the efficiency, reliability and accuracy of the methodology for code-based design of structures. The AISC-ASD design code is used to illustrate the design methodology. Small as well as large-scale problems are solved. Simultaneous sizing, shape and topology optimal designs of structural framed systems subjected to static and dynamic loads are considered. Comparisons with results from prior publications and solution to new problems show that the enhancements made to the GA do indeed make the design system more efficient and robust.

Detecting Out-of-Distribution (OOD) data is fundamentally required when Deep Neural Network (DNN) is applied to real-world AI such as autonomous driving. However, modern DNNs are quite vulnerable to the over-confidence problem even if the test data are far away from the trained data distribution. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a novel Adversarial-Mixup training method to let the DNN model be more robust by detecting OOD data effectively. Experimental results show that the proposed Adversarial-Mixup method improves the overall performance of OOD detection by 78% comparing with the State-of-the-Art methods. Furthermore, we show that the proposed method can alleviate the over-confidence problem by reducing the confidence score of OOD data than the previous methods, resulting in more reliable and robust DNNs.

In this paper, a design optimization of ball grid array packaging geometry is studied based on the Taguchi method, which allowed robust design by considering the variance of the input parameters during the optimization process. Molding compound and substrate were modeled as viscoelastic, and finite element analyses were performed to calculate the strain energy densities of the eutectic solder balls. Six quality factors of the dimensions of the packaging geometry were chosen as control factors. After performing noise experiments to determine the dominant factors, main experiments were conducted to find the optimum packaging geometry. Then the strain energy densities between the original and optimized geometries were compared. It was found that the effects of the packaging geometry on the solder ball reliability were significant, and more than 40% of the strain energy density was reduced by the geometry optimization.

Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) is one of optical technique to measure displacement precisely, uses CCD camera to show result image in real time. General ESPI system measures in-plane or out-of-plane displacement. Shearography is one of electronic speckle pattern interferometric methods which allow full-field observation of surface displacement derivatives and it is robust in vibration. The shearography provides non-contacting technique of evaluating defects nondestructively In this study, the shearography was used to evaluate defects in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic(CFRP). Various sizes of artificial defects were embedded in various depths of woven CFRP plate. Effects due to the variation of size and depth of defects were evaluated in this study.

Human reliability assessment (HRA) is conducted on the unspoken premise that 'human error' is a meaningful concept and that it can be associated with individual actions. The basis for this assumption it found in the origin of HRA, as a necessary extension of PSA to account for the impact of failures emanating from human actions. Although it was natural to model HRA on PSA, a large number of studies have shown that the premises are wrong, specifically that human and technological functions cannot be decomposed in the same manner. The general experience from accident studies also indicates that action failures are a function of the context, and that it is the variability of the context rather than the 'human error probability' that is the much sought for signal. Accepting this will have significant consequences for the way in which HRA, and ultimately also PSA, should be pursued.

Purpose: The most previous works on designing accelerated life tests (ALTs) are focused on the application of a single stress. Because of the difficulty to obtain the sufficient information in a reasonable duration using single stress only, there is needed in practice to use multiple-stress ALTs frequently. This paper presents new practical plans with two stresses for Weibull distribution. Methods: The four-level practical plans based on rectangle test region are proposed and compared with the corresponding three-level statistically optimal plans. Sensitivity analyses for assumed design parameters and life-stress relationship are conducted. Results: A procedure to choose practical ALT plans is illustrated with a numerical example and guidelines for planning two-stress ALTs are provided. Conclusion: The proposed two-stress ALT plans on practical constraints to assess a quantile of Weibull lifetime distribution at the use condition are efficient and robust.
