This paper has implemented a mutual conversion system that mutually converts between body motion signals and both visual and auditory signals. The present study is based on intentional synesthesia that can be perceived by learning. The Euler's angle was used in body movements as the output of a wearable armband(Myo). As a muscle sense, roll, pitch and yaw signals were used in this study. As visual and auditory signals, MIDI(Musical Instrument Digital Interface) signals and HSI(Hue, Saturation, Intensity) color model were used respectively. The method of mutual conversion between body motion signals and both visual and auditory signals made it easy to infer by applying one-to-one correspondence. Simulation results showed that input motion signals were compared with output simulation ones using ROS(Root Operation System) and Gazebo which is a 3D simulation tool, to enable the mutual conversion between body motion information and both visual and auditory information.

When a barge is towed by a tug boat using a tow line, the barge is frequently subject to a large sway motion induced from its inherent yaw motions. This large sway motion combined with external forces due to winds and waves may makes the towing to be difficult or even dangerous. It has been reported that in worse situations, barges or tugs are capsized. In addition, the large sway motion of the towed barge gives a menace to the safety of ships navigating nearby. This paper is the results of the experimental investigation into the course stability of an 8,000 DWT barge using a Towing Tank and a Circulating Water Channel. Various skegs are designed and course stability tests for the barge with skegs are conducted in calm water and in irregular waves. It is observed that an effective skeg attached to the barge enables the sway motion to be zero while the sway amplitude of the bare hull is around 10 times its breadth.

The field of robots is being widely accepted as a new technology today. Many robots are produced continuously to impart amusement to people. Especially the robot which operates with a wheelbarrow was enough of a work of art to arouse excitement in the audiences. All the wheelbarrow robots share the same technology in that the direction of roll and pitch are acting as balance controllers, allowing the robots to maintain balance for a long period by continuously moving forward and backward. However one disadvantage of this technology is that they cannot avoid obstacles in their way. Therefore movement in sideways is a necessity. For the control of rotation of yawing direction, the angle and direction of rotation are adjusted according to the velocity and torque of rotation of a motor. Therefore this study aimed to inquire into controlling yawing direction, which is responsible for rotation of a robot. This was followed by creating a simulation of a wheelbarrow robot and equipping the robot with a yawing direction controlling device in the center of the body so as to allow sideway movements.

This paper describes the development of variable stability system (VSS) control laws for the KFA-i to simulate the dynamics of KFA-m aircraft. The KFA-i is a single engine, Class IV aircraft and was selected as an in-flight simulator (IFS) aircraft, whereas the KFA-m is a simulated aircraft that is based on the F-16 aircraft. A 6-DoF math model of KFA-i aircraft was developed, linearized, and separated into longitudinal and lateral motion for VSS control law synthesis. The KFA-i aircraft has five primary control surfaces: two flaperons, two all movable horizontal tails, and one rudder. Flaperons are used for load control, the horizontal tails are used for pitch and roll rate control, and the rudder is used for yaw rate control. The developed VSS control law can simulate four parameters of the KFA-m aircraft simultaneously, such as pitch, roll, yaw rates, and load. The simulation results show that KFA-i follows the responses of KFA-m with high accuracy.

This paper is proposed about three axis motion control camera design method based on wires. Original motion control camera consists of track, boom, L-Head, Camera and so on and is enormous and expensive. But proposed motion control camera adjusts wire length using encoders and motors. And position control use position based straight line of straight-line move method for moving precise position. Proposed simple design is able to use various place and inexpensive than original motion control camera. But, camera was vibrated and rotated due to basic property of wire. So we proposed solutions that connected method of wire and using a tensional object for reducing rotation. For proposed algorithm verification, we realized three axis motion control camera based on wire and measured oscillation while moving same trace. We confirmed the results that standard deviation of oscillation was reduced 4.93 degree than before design method.

The vertical center of gravity (VCG) has a significant impact on the roll motion response of a surface ship, particularly oil tankers based on the oil level in the tanker after discharging oil at several stations or positional changes, such as changes in the superstructure and deck structure. This study examined the motion response of the Korea very large crude carrier 2 (KVLCC2) at various VCGs, especially roll motion when the VCG changed. The potential theory in the Ansys AQWA program was used as a numerical simulation method to calculate the motion response. On the other hand, the calculations obtained through potential theory overestimated the roll amplitudes during resonance and lacked precision. Therefore, roll damping is a necessary parameter that accounts for the viscosity effect by performing an experimental roll decay. The roll decay test estimated the roll damping coefficients for various VCGs using Froude's method. The motion response of the ship in regular waves was evaluated for various VCGs using the estimated roll-damping coefficients. In addition, the reliability of the numerical simulation in motion response was verified with those of the experiment method reported elsewhere. The simulation results showed that the responses of the surge, sway, heave, pitch, and yaw motion were not affected by changing the VCG, but the natural frequency and magnitude of the peak value of the roll motion response varied with the VCG.

This study presents the results of decoupling of free decay roll test data by discrete wavelet transform. Free roll decay test was performed to decide the coefficients of damping terms in equation of motion. During the experiment, a slight yaw motion was found while the model was in the free roll decay motion. Discrete wavelet transform was applied to the signal to extract the pure roll motion. The results were compared to those of the Fourier transform. DWT was able to decouple the two signals efficiently while the Fourier transform was not.

Crabbing motion is the pure sway motion of a ship without surge velocity. Thus, it can be applied to a berthing operation. Crabbing motion is induced by a peculiar operation method called the push-pull mode. The push-pull mode is induced by using a combination of the main propeller and side thruster. Two propellers generating the same amounts of thrust and rotating in opposite directions produce some yawing moment on a vessel but do not induce longitudinal motion. With the additional operation of side thrusters, the push-pull mode is used to induce a large amount of lateral force. In this paper, three-degree-of-freedom equations of motion such as for the surge, sway, and yaw are constructed for the crabbing motion. Based on these equations of motion, a feedback linearization control method is applied to auto-berthing control for a twin-screw ship with side thrusters. The controller can deal with the nonlinearity of a system, which is present in the berthing maneuver of a twin screw ship. A simulation of the auto-berthing of a ship is performed to validate the performance of the designed controller.

Kyung-p-1 main line is characterized by its curves radii of which are considerably small. It is essential for running time reduction of train to improve capabilities of curve negotiation. This improvement can be achieved by designing a bogie with flexible suspension system. The effect of the improvement is mainly concerned in the primary yaw stiffness of bogie suspension. This paper gives a linear analysis for the motion of railway vehicle on curved track and gives also computer simulation results for Semaul Train. The results introduce a conclusion that the primary yaw stiffness of Semaul train is too rigid to be self-steering on Kyung-pu main line curves.

By using differential force between left and right wheel, lateral motion can be controlled known as Direct Yaw-moment Control (DYC). In previous researches, DYC control is proposed to increase the stability of the vehicle, but maneuverability has not been discussed sufficiently. The car handling condition which is called the index parameter of maneuverability is dependent on the vehicle velocity and steering angle. To achieve the desired vehicle's cornering path, the car handling condition must be considered sufficiently. In this paper, the novel DYC method is proposed which gives the car handling condition regardless of the longitudinal speed. The proposed controller is based on the PI controller to feedback the curvature parameter. The controlled system shows the advantages of DYC regarding to the reference trajectory by the dual motor system. With respect to the uncontrolled model, the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by numerical examples.
