  • IMO stability regulations include various stability parameters such as GM values. To assess the stability of the ships, we should check all stability parameters of the IMO requirements. However, since this process is complex, a more convenient way to evaluate stability performance is required. In this research, the index for marine ship intact stability assessment (IMSISA) model was developed to solve these problems. The IMSISA model consists of a stability index calculation module and a stability assessment module. In the stability index calculation module, ten stability parameters, including GM, were used to develop the stability index, which has the advantage of being able to quantify the ship stability. The stability assessment module uses the stability index value to determine the stability status of the ship and provides the captain with stability management guidelines. To verify the proposed model, the basic stability calculations were performed for two model ships in 32 loading situations. The proposed model was found to provide better performance in the stability assessment than the previous study. By applying the IMSISA model to the ships, the captain can assess the ship stability more quantitatively and efficiently.

  • This paper presents the mechanism to increase lateral stability of a mobile robot using an energy stability margin theory. Previous measure of stability used in a wheeled mobile robot has been based on a static stability margin. However, the static stability margin is independent of the height of the robot and does not provide sufficient measure for the amount of stability when the terrain is not a horizontal plane. In this work, the energy stability margin theory, which is dependent on robot's height is used to develop a 2 dof mechanism to increase lateral stability. This proposed mechanism shifts the center of gravity of the robot to the point where the energy stability margin is maximized and overall stability of the robot equipped with this mechanism will be increased.

  • When the aircraft is developed, several flight tests are performed including stability and controllability, performance and systems, above all the most important part of the flight test is stability test. Stability test is divided into two parts, static stability and dynamic stability. Static stability of the aircraft is typically defined in terms of its initial tendency to return to equilibrium after a disturbance and not included time concept. One of static stability, longitudinal static stability, was addressed here. The longitudinal static stability was studied from the basic theory to the flight test method and also explained data reduction method throughout the flight test. Finally showed how to meet the specifications such as ROC, FAR and MIL-specifications.

  • Since the first family of structure-dependent methods can simultaneously integrate unconditional stability and explicit formulation in addition to second order accuracy, it is very computationally efficient for solving inertial problems except for adopting auto time-stepping techniques due to no nonlinear iterations. However, an unusual stability property is first found herein since its unconditional stability interval is drastically different for zero and nonzero damping. In fact, instability might occur for solving a damped stiffness hardening system while an accurate result can be obtained for the corresponding undamped stiffness hardening system. A technique of using a stability factor is applied to overcome this difficulty. It can be applied to magnify an unconditional stability interval. After introducing this stability factor, the formulation of this family of structure-dependent methods is changed accordingly and thus its numerical properties must be re-evaluated. In summary, a large stability factor can result in a large unconditional stability interval but also lead to a large relative period error. As a consequence, a stability factor must be appropriately chosen to have a desired unconditional stability interval in addition to an acceptable period distortion.

  • International Maritime Organizatin(IMO) has been chosen some of agreements for regulating the international stability criteria of fishing vessels and recommended that each goverment adopts theirs into the domestic law. As a result, 77/93 Fishing Safety Agreement was ratified. Among the above agreement, contents of stability was not only applied to domestic law, but also strenghten considerably compared with existing stability criteria. And even if the calculation guide of stability with recommendations was regualted, Analysis of stability on domestic fishing vessels never have been used according to such a caculation method. Moreover, the caculation of stability criteria caused by strong wind, rolling effect and deck inflow was not considered in the existing basic design program. Therefore, the development of stability criteria program available for such a caculation has been of vital impotance. This research has developed a stability criteria program under 77/93 Fishing Safety Agreement. Also through development of stability criteria program, the stability performance of fishing vessel with 69ton stow-nesting was evaluated.

  • The present paper is concerned with the notions of Lipschitz and asymptotic stability for perturbed nonlinear differential system knowing the corresponding stability of nonlinear differential system. We investigate Lipschitz and asymtotic stability for perturbed nonlinear differential systems. The main tool used is integral inequalities of the Bihari-type, in special some consequences of an extension of Bihari's result to Pinto and Pachpatte, and all that sort of things.

  • Glycolic acid(GA) is well known the most effective cosmetic ingredient on the epidermal remodeling, accelerated desquamation and inhibitory effect on melanin synthesis. The various cosmetic formulations containing GA have not been reported in terms of stability. This study was to investigate the stability of three formulations(gel, cream, and ointment). The stability of obtained formulations was tested chemical and physical characteristics including the composition stability, hot-cool cycling, the variation of pH and viscosity, and the observation of color and odor. The experimental results showed that the gel and cream containing 5% GA, both formulations have proper stability in the centrifugal test, hot-cool cycling test, viscosity, pH stability and the observation of color and odor. On the other hand, the 5% GA ointment did not have stability. We concluded that the formulations of gel and cream are more suitable than ointment to use GA ingredient for developing cosmetic in terms of stability.
