The main factors of determining the Control Line of the Control Chart can be classified as follows: 1) sample size (n), 2) the factor that determines the spread of Control Limits (B), (3) sampling frequency (h). The determination of these factors can be explained according to the extent that occurrences of assignable cause should be detected. The purpose of this paper are two: one is for composing a model of which use should be designated for economic decision on the size of these factors leading to the Control Line of the Control Chart, the other is about what influence increasing or decreasing condition, according to changeability of the size of these factors, of expect cost can have on the economy when the Control Chart is used.

Considerable attention has been given to controller designs that utilize the variable structure system theory in order to achieve robust tracking performance of robotic manipulators subjected to parameter variations and extraneous disturbances. However, the theory has not had wide spread acceptance in practical control engineering community due mainly to the worry of chattering which is inherently ever-existing in the variable structure system. This paper presents a novel type of fuzzy-sliding mode controller to alleviate the chattering problem. A sliding mode controller for robust robot control is firstly synthesized with an assumption that the imposed system uncertainties satisfy matching conditions so that certain deterministic performances can parameters and control rules are obtained from a relation between predetermined sliding surfaces and representative points in the error state space. A two degree-of-freedom robotic manipulator subjected to a variable payload and a torque disturbance is considered in order to demonstrate superior tracking performance accrued from the proposed methodology.

In this study, a new signal model suitable for UWB indoor environments with random angle spread is proposed to estimate the angle-of-arrivals(AOAs) of UWB cluster signals in an UWB wireless communication. A subspace based estimation technique adopted for this model is investigated and the estimates of the AOA and distribution parameter on the received UWB cluster signals are obtained. The proposed model and estimation technique are verified using computer simulations, and the performance of the estimation error is analyzed.

Spray impingement and fuel film formation models with cavitation have been developed and incorporated into the computational fluid dynamics code, STAR-CD. The spray/wall interaction process was modeled by considering the effects of surface temperature conditions and fuel film formation. The behavior of fuel droplets after impingement was divided into rebound, spread and splash using the Weber number and parameter K(equation omitted). The spray impingement model accounts for mass conservation, energy conservation, and heat transfer to the impinging droplets. The fuel film formation model was developed by integrating the continuity, momentum, and energy equations along the direction of fuel film thickness. Zero dimensional cavitation model was adopted in order to consider the cavitation phenomena and to give reasonable initial conditions for spray injection. Numerical simulations of spray tip penetration, spray impingement patterns, and the mass of film-state fuel matched well with the experimental data. The spray impingement and fuel film formation models have been applied to study spray/wall impingement in high-speed direct injection diesel engines.

New solutions are given for the capacity and spectrum efficiency of frequency hopped spread spectrum multiple access system(FH-SSMA) in a Nakagami interference environment. In this paper we derive a exact formulation of the deletion probability for a mobile environment and analyze the system capacity and spectrum efficiency in terms of the average bit error rate(BER). It is shown that the system capacity is decreased by 52% as the Nakagami fading parameter is reduced to 0.5 and the required signal to noise ratio(SNR) is above 25dB, to get the spectrum efficiency of 0.3.

A paradigm shift in driving system of transportation vehicle from engine to electric motor is required as the problems on air pollution and drain of petroleum resource are on the rize. Moreover while it is possible to control the motor with variable frequency driver, the application of motor in various kinds of vehicles is spread rapidly. In the paper, the effective design method of IPMSM for EV and HEV by using equivalent magnetic circuit and finite element method (FEM) is suggested. First of all, load conditions of the application are calculated. And basic design process of IPMSM is proposed with two design point. Finally, in order to verify the proposed design process, it was compared with the basic design parameter and the FEM analysis results.

This paper presents a complete analysis for the derivation of the probability of error for a fast (or multiple-hops per bit) frequency hopping spread spectrum system employing binary FSK modulation and noncoherent reception in the presence of partial-band noise jamming and thermal noise. The worst-case error rate performances were obtained numerically and presented as a function of E /N with L as a parameter, where E /N and L are the signal bit energy-to-jamiming density ratio and the number of hops per bit, respectively.

A novel design technology for a high frequency electronic ballast for metal-halide discharge lamps is proposed. A PFC technique is adopted to get unit power factor and output frequency alteration technique is adopted to avoid acoustic resonance. For characteristics evaluation, the designed electronic ballast is presented using normalized parameter. To reduce losses of the ballast. ZVS control technique is adopted and the maximum flux density of magnetic core for inductor should be kept lower. The electronic ballast for 250[W] metal-halide discharge lamp is implemented and 96[%] efficiency and low conducted EMI level are accomplished.

Cell adhesion is a coordinated process involving initial binding of integrin receptors to extracellular matrix (ECM), recruitment of adhesion proteins, and focal adhesion assembly. The formation of mechanically stable focal adhesion assembly of cells within surrounding ECM is a key parameter to direct numerous cellular functions including cell migration, differentiation, and apotosis. With current cell adhesion assays, it is difficult to understand contributions of each coordinated event on evolution of cell adhesion strengthening since cells spontaneously spread upon their adhesion to the substrate, thus remodeling their cytoskeletal structure. In this presentation, novel approaches for analysis of cell adhesion strengthening process based on the combination of mechanical device, micro-patterned substrates, and molecular biological techniques will be discussed.

In this paper, the deconvolution method utilizing a modified Wiener filter is applied for the enhancement of lateral resolution of ultrasonic B-scan Images. For this purpose, a phantom composed of wires which are 0.6mm of diameter and apart in the range between 3 to 9mm is constructed. The modified Wiener filter with optimal parameter is applied to the phantom for the analysis of ultrasonic image. The results obtained are as follows'When all parameters of the modified Wiener filter are optimal, the resolution of B-scan images is enhanced by 50 percent : Othenrise, the images are blurred, spilt at peak points, or noises are strengthened severely. When the point-spread function representing the characteristic function of the system is determined, the selection ranges of op- timum parameters may be narrowed. It is expected that the proposed method may be able to apply to clinic situations for more accurate image analysis by means of reducing the loss of important information.
