In our previous paper, we developed a robust saturation controller for the linear time-invariant (LTI) system involving both actuator's saturation and structured real parameter uncertainties. This controller can only guarantee the closed-loop robust stability of the system in the presence of actuator's saturation. But we cannot analytically make any comment on control performance of this controller. In this paper, we suggest a method to use linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization problem which can analytically explain control performance of this robust saturation controller only in nominal system. The availability of design method using LMI optimization problem for this robust saturation controller is verified through a numerical example for the building with an active mass damper (AMD) system.

In our previous research, we proposed a robust saturation controller which involves both control input saturation and structured real parameter uncertainties. This controller can analytically prescribed the upper and lower bounds of parameter uncertainties, and guarantee the closed-loop robust stability of the system in the presence of actuator's saturation. And the availability and the effectiveness of the proposed robust saturation controller were verified through numerical simulations. In this paper, we verify the robust stability of this controller through experimental tests. Expecially, we show unstable cases of other controllers in comparison with this controller. Experimental tests are carried out in the laboratory using a two-story test structure with a hydraulic-type active mass damper.

When the input is small, increase of the input leads to a corresponding increase of output, but when the input reaches a certain level, its further increase does produces little or no increase of the output. When this phenomenon happens, the device is said to be in saturation. Occurence of saturation amounts to reducing the gain of the device as the input signals are increased. An extreme case of saturation is the on-off or relay nonlinearity. On-off nonlinearitics have effects similar to those of saturation nonlinearities. Furthermore they can lead to "chattering" in the physical systems doc to their discontinuous nature. This paper presents stabilization method of saturation nonlinearity system using deadzone describing function etc.. And computer simulation results show that saturation nonlinearity can be eliminated due to deadzone nonlinearity.

In this paper, we propose a color image improvement method. The proposed algorithms are classified with the adaptive contrast stretching method for contrast enhancement and the adaptive saturation enhancement method for saturation enhancement. The adaptive contrast stretching method is to compensate a significant change of brightness while luminance is processed. The adaptive saturation enhancement method inhibits its saturation from de-saturation and oversaturation while chrominance is processed. The proposed algorithms are focused on a preference color processing in order to generate better image quality than the algorithms focused on a uniform color processing for human vision.

This paper is focused on a robust saturation controller for the stable linear time-invariant (LTI) system involving both actuator's saturation and structured real parameter uncertainties. Based on affine quadratic stability and multi-convexity concept, a robust saturation controller is newly proposed and the linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based sufficient existence conditions for this controller are presented. The controller suggested in this paper can analytically prescribe the lower and upper bounds of parameter uncertainties, and guarantee the closed-loop robust stability of the system in the presence of actuator's saturation. Through numerical simulations, it is confirmed that the proposed robust saturation controller is robustly stable with respect to parameter uncertainties over the prescribed range defined by the lower and upper bounds.

A Method for detection of saturation of a current transformer(CT) is proposed. The algorithm is initiated when the end point of a saturation period is detected. This detection is achieved by checking the time interval between the adjacent zero-crossing points of the second derivative of the secondary current. Once the end point of the saturation period is detected, the beginning point of the corresponding saturation period is determined by backward examination of the sum of the secondary current from the end point. The performance of the algorithm was evaluated for a-g faults on a 345 kV 100km overhead transmission line. The Electromagnetic Transient Program(EMTP) was used to generate fault current signals for different fault inception angles and different remanent fluxes. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm successfully detects the saturation period even in the presence of a remanent flux.

This research presets the method of determining basic capacity of signalized intersection using the concept of ideal saturation flow rate. Vehicle discharge rates during green time were collected and studied as part of the preparation of Korean Highway Capacity Manual. From the result of this study the ideal saturation flow rate and saturation queue position were determined. In addition, based on the ideal saturation flow rate two geometric adjustment factors(lane width and grade adjustment factors) were studied. The results were presented in this paper.

In this paper, an image enhancement method by saturation and contrast improvement is proposed. Histogram equalization with color difference makes higher contrast. By generating saturation amplification ratio with color difference, the saturation improves effectively. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has higher contrast and more natural - look than the conventional methods.

The concept of "Saturation Impulse" for rigid, perfectly plastic structures with finite-deflections subjected to dynamic loading was put forward by Zhao, Yu and Fang (1994a). This paper extends the concept of Saturation Impulse to the analysis of structures such as simply supported circular plates, simply supported and fully clamped square plates, and cylindrical shells subjected to rectangular pressure pulses in the medium load range. Both upper and lower bounds of nondimensional saturation impulses are presented.

We refer to the saturation assumptions on the finite element approximation for a one dimensional convection-diffusion model. By examining piecewise linear finite elements with refined mesh by half and hierarchical bases, we verify the saturation results, respectively.
