This paper describes a conceptual model for the performance analysis simulator of a weapon launching system. The system performance analysis simulator is envisioned to provide an integrated analysis environment in which the system performance and operational effectiveness can be analyzed in more rapid and efficient way. The conceptual model for the simulator describes a referent independently of specific technology and implementation, and it can be used to transform the simulator requirements into the simulator system specifications.

Ship manoeuvring simulator has been widely utilized for training mariners, for assessing safety, for developing harbour and port, and for designing ships. We discuss a ship manoeuvring simulator which has been newly developed by Korea Maritime University. The simulator consists of simulator bridge and control console. All the computers used in the simulator are connected with one another by UDP or TCP network system. All the instruments are connected with interface computer by signal line which is controlled by RS232 communication protocol, or by voltage controlled A/D board. Next the mathematical model of ship manoeuvring motion in harbour areas, and ship and terrain modeling technique are also briefly discussed. Finally using the simulator an experiment of distance cognition and a simulation example of berthing/deberthing manoeuvre are shown.

For the efficient and accurate development of a biped humanoid robot, systematic humanoid development platform is a necessary component in building the development environment. The simulator is a significant tool to develop a biped humanoid robot. In this paper, we first present a method for constructing a humanoid simulator that can be easily applied to an actual humanoid. Easy transplantation into an actual humanoid increases the efficiency of simulator and the development speed. Systematic structure, closely modeling and prediction of an actual humanoid is a significant part of the simulator to set a goal. Using the simulator, we can predict the motion of an actual humanoid. The functions and the effectiveness of the developed simulator were evaluated through simulated motions and walks.

In this paper, we propose a system-level simulator for the performance analysis of a Solid-State Disk (SSD) in PC environment by using TLM (Transaction Level Modeling) method. Our method provides quantitative analysis for a variety of architectural choices of PC system as well as SSD. Also, it drastically reduces the analysis time compared to the conventional RTL (Register Transfer Level) modeling method. To show the effectiveness of the proposed simulator, we performed several explorations of PC architecture as well as SSD. More specifically, we measured the performance impact of the hit rate of a cache buffer which temporarily stores the data from PC. Also, we analyzed the performance variation of SSD for various NAND Flash memories which show different response time with our simulator. These experimental results show that our simulator can be effectively utilized for the architecture exploration of SSD as well as PC.

Scene Transition Nets(STN) is a very useful modeling method for discrete-continuous hybrid systems. However, it is difficult to write STN in standard object-oriented programming languages because STN programming requires much skill of object-oriented programming and high knowledge of STN of designers. To overcome this problem, the authors have developed a useful GUI simulator software for modeling and simulations of STN. The experimental results of a transport system including an AGV showed the availability of our software.

In this paper, we propose a dynamic battery equivalent modeling of lithium-ion batteries that can be applied to the battery simulator. In order to apply battery model to battery simulator, the profile of battery model should be equal to that of actual battery. Therefore, the equivalent model was selected by considering the transient and steady-state characteristics of lithium-ion batteries. Also, to obtain transient-state behavior of the battery, the RC values of the battery are selected through the lithium-ion battery charge/discharge experiments. The validity of proposed battery model is verified from the experimental results.

Developing control functions that operate and cooperate each equipment in order to achieve a goal is one of the most important problems in the installation of automated manufacturing systems. This paper discusses the development of a control system for heterarchical architecture and a simulator to verify operations of the control system. The object-oriented paradigm that has excellent reusability, portability, and extensibility is currently being used in many application fields as a software development methodology. Especially, UML(Unified Modeling Language), the third generation object-oriented modeling methodology, has advantages such as model generalization, clearness, and so on. In this research, software objects to accomodate the real time environments of automated manufacturing systems are modeled with the diagrams of UML. Based on these models, control software is developed as a format of pseudo-codes. A simulator is implemented to validate the developed control system.

PV system performance is dependent on different irradiations and temperature values in addition to the capability of the employed PV inverter / maximum power point tracker (MPPT) circuit or algorithm. Therefore, it would be appropriate to use a PV simulator capable of producing identical repeatable conditions regardless of the weather to evaluate the performance of inverter / MPPT circuits and algorithms. In accordance with this purpose, a photovoltaic (PV) array simulator is presented in this paper. The simulator is designed to generate current-voltage (I-V) and power-voltage (P-V) curves of a PV panel. Series connected cascaded modules constitute the basic part of the simulator. This feature also allows for the modeling of PV arrays since the number of modules can be increased and high voltage values can be reached with the simulator. In addition, the curves obtained at the simulator output become similar to the actual curves of sample PV panels with an increase in the number of modules. In order to show the validity of the proposed simulator, it was simulated for various situations such as panels under full irradiance and partial shading conditions. After completing simulations, experiments were realized to support the simulation study. Both simulation and experimental results show that the proposed simulator will be very useful for researchers to carry out PV studies under laboratory conditions.

The circuit simulation analysis and diagnosis methods are used to instruments in detail when they give apparently abnormal readings. In this paper, a new simulator through an analysis of the important circuits modeling under severe accident conditions has been designed, the realization for a body work instead of the two sorts of the Labview & Pspice as an one order command in the Labview program. The program can be shown the output graph form the circuit modeling as an order commend. The procedure for the simulator design was divided into two design steps, of which the first step was the diagnosis methods, the second step was the circuit simulator for the signal processing tool. It has three main functions which are a signal processing tool, an accident management tool, and an additional guide from the initial screen.

Reconfigurability of machine tools is one of the critical factors to realize the responsive manufacturing systems to satisfy the mass-customization production. This paper presents the methods to model and simulate the machine tools on Internet in response to change in the machining requirements. Specifically, a set of module combination rules and a modeling method of the structure of machine tools using connectivity graph are developed. In response to the user requirements, kinematic relations and structures of machine tools can be derived using the module combination rules and connectivity graph relationships. Internet-based simulator of machine tools is implemented and presented. The developed machine tool simulator can be used to verify the structure of machine tools derived from the user requirements.
