This paper presents an adaptive fuzzy control scheme for nonlinear helicopter system which has uncertainty or unknown variations in parameters. The proposed adaptive fuzzy controller is a model reference adaptive controller. The parameters of fuzzy controller are adjusted so that the plant output tracks the reference model output. It is shown that the adaptive law guarantees the stability of the closed-loop system by using Lyapunov function. Several experiments with a small model helicopter having parameter variations are performed to show the usefulness of the proposed adaptive fuzzy controller.

본 연구는 머리운동 제어 시스템에 대한 생체 물리학적인 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 통하여 모델의 동특성을 조사하였으며, 생체운동(머리-안구)의 상호 관계를 비교하였다. 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 시스템을 구성하고 있는 매개변수의 변화가 출력에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 감도해석법을 써서 감도계수를 구한 결과, 입력 제어신호의 펄스높이(PH), 동근의 펄스폭(PW1), 길항근의 펄스폭(PW2)이, 시스템의 출력특성을 결정하는 가장 중요한 매개변수 임을 알 수 있었다. 2) 비 선형 제어모델의 선형화를 통하여 선형모델의 응답특성과 크나큰 차이가 없음을 알았다. 3) Main-Sequence도를 작성하여 실험 데이터와 비교한 결과, 거의 일치함으로서 모델의 타당성을 입증하였다. 4) 머리운동이 시간최적으로 응답하기 위해서는 bang-bang 제어법칙이 적용되어야 함을 알았다. 5) 머리운동이 목표점에 도달하는 순간에는 길항근의 역제통 펄스가 가해 짐으로서, 길항근이 궤적의 마지막 부분을 지배함을 알았다. 6) 머리-안구운동의 main-sequence도를 비교 함으로서 상호관계를 규명하였다. 앞으로는 이 모델링 법을 개선확장하면, 비행시 파일럿의 생체 시뮬레이션, 헬멧 조준 사격 시스템등의 항공공학, 생체의용공학 연구 및 제어입력을 생체신호로 하는 로봇틱스 연구에 본 연구 방법은 유용하리라 생각된다.

In this study, a simulation program is developed in order to investigate non steady-state cornering performance of 6WD/6WS special-purpose vehicles. 6WD vehicles are believed to have good performance on off-the-road maneuvering and to have fail-safe capabilities. But the cornering performances of 6WS vehicles are not well understood in the related literature. In this paper, 6WD/6WS vehicles are modeled as a 18 DOF system which includes non-linear vehicle dynamics, tire models, and kinematic effects. Then the vehicle model is constructed into a simulation program using the MATLAB/SIMULINK so that input/output and vehicle parameters can be changed easily with the modulated approach. Cornering performance of the 6WS vehicle is analyzed for brake steering and pivoting, respectively. Simulation results show that cornering performance depends on the middle-wheel steering as well as front/rear wheel steering. In addition, a new 6WS control law is proposed in order to minimize the sideslip angle. Lane change simulation results demonstrate the advantage of 6WS vehicles with the proposed control law.

A pressure control law to regulate mass flow rate of gas generator is suggested. The governing equation is modeled by considering the burning rate of solid propellant and the conservation equation of gas generator. And then, a classical control law is applied after verifying the accuracy of dynamic model through comparing with ground test and internal ballistic results. The results show degradation of performance as shown in typical time varying system. To overcome this problem, an adaptive scheme is suggested and the performance is verified through numerical simulation.

Purpose: This study intends to develop a nonlinear cyclic plasticity damage model in the framework of finite element formulation, which is capable of taking large deformation effects into account, in order to accurately predict the hysteretic behavior of stainless steel structures. Method: The new cyclic constitutive equations that utilize the combined isotropic-kinematic hardening rule for plastic deformation is incorporated into the damage mechanic model in conjunction with the large strain formulation. The damage growth law is based on the experimental observations that the evolution of microvoids yields nonlinear damage accumulation with plastic deformation. The damage model parameters and the procedure for their identification are presented. Results and Conclusion: The proposed nonlinear damage model has been verified by simulating uniaxial strain-controlled monotonic and cyclic loading tests, and successfully applied to a thin-walled stainless steel pipe subjected to constant and alternating strain-controlled cyclic loadings.

The concept of the IGC(Integrated Guidance and Control) has been introduced to overcome the performance limit of the SGC(Separated Guidance and Control) loop. A new type of IGC with impact angle constraint has been proposed in this paper. Angle of attack, pitch angle rate, pitch angle and line of sight angle are considered as state variables. A controllability analysis and equilibrium point analysis have been carried out to investigate the control characteristic of the prposed IGC. The LQR(Linear Quadratic Regulator) has been adopted for the control law and detailed explanations about the adoption has been provided. The performance comparison between the IGC and the SGC has been carried out. The result of numerical simulations shows that the IGC guarantees better guidance performance than the SGC when the agile maneuver is needed for a specific guidance geometry.

Pricing a network service aims for congestion control of the network as well as economic efficiency. A monopolistic supplier providing users with a network service on a shared link needs a pricing schedule that maximizes revenue under the link's bandwidth constraint and guarantees the bandwidth purchased by the users. In that case, nonlinear pricing is an efficient scheme which meets both requirements. This study reviews how nonlinear pricing can be applied to the network service under the constraint and shows that the nonlinear pricing may result in a fixed unit price of bandwidth as linear pricing when demand characteristics of the users follow a power law. Also, the way how the provider with incomplete information on the demand distribution seeks for the optimal pricing from the degree of the network congestion is introduced and the relationship between the development direction of the Internet and internet pricing is considered based on the results of the study.

This paper elaborates on the directional axis guidance and control algorithm used in mission flight for high altitude long endurance UAV. First, the directional axis control algorithm is designed to modify the control variable such that a strong headwind prevents the UAV from moving forward. Similarly, the guidance algorithm is designed to operate the respective algorithms for Fly-over, Fly-by, and Hold for way-point flight. The design outcomes of each guidance and control algorithm were confirmed through nonlinear simulation of high altitude long endurance UAV. Finally, the penultimate purpose of this study was to perform an actual mission flight based on the design results. Consequently, flight tests were used to establish the flight controllability of the designed guidance and control algorithm.

To design a control law of an aircraft, an accurate aircraft dynamic model is required. To obtain an aerodynamic database (DB) to build a dynamic model, a large number of wind tunnel tests are typically required. However, when flight test data of target aircraft exist such as in the process of unmanned conversion of a manned aircraft, an aircraft dynamic model can be obtained through a parameter estimation method and a DB tuning procedure. This paper describes a nonlinear model construction process and a verification method for KC-100 OPV aircraft. Flight data compatibility analysis was performed to determine suitability of the estimation method application. Linear model estimation was performed using the maximum likelihood estimation method. Results of aerodynamic DB tuning process and verification applying the FFS standard to the nonlinear model constructed are presented.
