We study the collective behaviors of two second-order nonlinear consensus models with a bonding force, namely the Kuramoto model and the Cucker-Smale model with inter-particle bonding force. The proposed models contain feedback control terms which induce collision avoidance and emergent consensus dynamics in a suitable framework. Through the cooperative interplays between feedback controls, initial state configuration tends to an ordered configuration asymptotically under suitable frameworks which are formulated in terms of system parameters and initial configurations. For a two-particle system on the real line, we show that the relative state tends to the preassigned value asymptotically, and we also provide several numerical examples to analyze the possible nonlinear dynamics of the proposed models, and compare them with analytical results.

The aim of this paper is to design an adaptive speed control system of a marine diesel engine by fusion of hard computing based proportional integral derivative (PID) control and soft computing based fuzzy control methods. The model of a marine diesel engine is considered as a typical non oscillatory second order system. When its model and the actual marine diesel engine ate not matched, it is hard to control the speed of the marine diesel engine. Therefore, this paper proposes two methods in order to obtain the speed control characteristics of a marine diesel engine. One is an efficient method to determine the PID control parameters of the nominal model of a marine diesel engine. Second is a reference adaptive speed control method that uses a fuzzy controller and derivative operator for tracking the nominal model of the marine diesel engine. It was found that the proposed PID parameters adjustment method is better than the Ziegler & Nichols' method, and that a model reference adaptive control is superior to using only PID controller. The improved control method proposed here, could be applied to other systems when a model of a system does not match the actual system.

The switching frequency of a power device is a very important parameter in the design of a parallel active power filter (PAPF), but so far, very little discussion has been conducted on it in a quantitative manner in previous publications. In this paper, an extensive analysis on the effects of the switching frequency on the performance of a PAPF is made, and a specification of the switching frequency values with different compensation results is presented. A first-order inertia element and a second-order oscillation element are considered as approximate models of a PAPF, respectively. The compensation characteristic for each order of harmonic current is obtained at different switching frequencies. Then, the THDs of each model for the system loads of a rectifier with resistance and inductance loads are proposed. The compensation results of a PAPF controlled as a first-order inertia element are better than those of a PAPF controlled as a second-order oscillation element. With two types of system loads which are rectifier with resistance and inductance loads and rectifier with resistance, inductance and capacitance loads, the THDs of the source current after compensation are presented with different switching frequencies. The compensation characteristics for the most widely used digital control system are investigated. The situation with an analog control is the theoretical characteristic and it is the best situation. The compensation characteristic of the digital control is worse than the compensation characteristic of the theoretical characteristic. Based on these analyses, the specifications of compensation characteristics with different switching frequencies are quite straightforward. Finally, a practical design example is studied to verify the application.

In this paper, a new focusing method, to be called the pipelined sampled delay focusing (PSDF), is implemented. This method improves the lateral resolution in ultrasound imaging system. In PSDF, the analog belay lines are no longer necessary because sampling sum process can replace the conventional delay sum process. Also, the method offers continuous dynamic focusing on the resolution pixel basis, and eliminates the constraint that the maximum delay time is less than the sampling interval. Second order sampling is adopted in order to extend the sampling interval.

This paper deals with a self-tuning fuzzy controller. The fuzzy controller is constructed with linguistic rules which consist of the fuzzy sets. Each fuzzy set is characterized by a membership function. The tuning fuzzy controller has paramenters that are input/output scaling factors to effect control output. In this paper we propose a tuning method for the scaling factor Computer simulations carried out on first-order and second-order processes will show how the present tuning approach improves the transient and the steady-state characteristics of the overall system.The applicability of the proposed algorithm is certified by computer simulation results.

A systematic way of failure diagnosis in a linear system with decentralized estimators is developed. The generalized likelihood ratio (G.L.R) approach to failure detection and identification is used for designing a diagnosis system in each subsystem based on the innovation analysis. For the simplicity of the theoretical formulation, a design scheme of failure diagnosis is developed for the system decomposed into two subsystems. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, several simulation studies have been carried out on a third-order linear system which is constructed of a second-order damped oscillator and a first-order lag.

This study is to define the Automated Container Terminal(ACT) and container terminal system. Also, we analyze the present condition of the container terminal system in Pusan port and its automation level by systems approach. And this paper aims at evaluating on the priority of R&D investment until the beginning of the second stage of New Pusan Port Project(2006). In this process we have considered 8 factors (cost, labor, area, time volume, reliability, safety, convenience) to analyze 6 subsystems. The priority order of R&D until target year by sub-systems is as follow : Cargo Handling System〉Transfer System〉Port Entry System〉Storage System(Distribution&Manufacturing System included)〉Inland Transport System〉Port Information System.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the permeation properties of each stage in three stage reverse osmosis system for cold-mill wastewater reuse. After construction of the three staged pilot plant which had 75% recovery and equipped with seven plate-and-frame modules, the change of each stage's penneate flow and quality were investigated in the process of membrane fouling. The order of average permeate flow was first, second, and third stage at the beginning. As the operation time passed, the permeate flow of first stage was decreased, the second stage was maintained steadily, and the third stage was increased. Accordingly, the fouling was initiated at the first stage and then progressed to the second and third stage. The first stage's permeate quality showed the best and the second and third stage was the next in that order. And the order of quality was maintained during the test periods. Therefore, the permeate quality was not affected by membrane fouling.
