Although piezoelectric materials such as PZT have been widely used as actuators in the field of active vibration suppression, the use of bare PZT as an actuator may cause some drawbacks such as critical breaks in the installation process, short circuits in the host material and low fatigue performance. The LIPCA-C2 (lightweight piezocomposite actuator) was developed to alleviate these problems. We implemented the LIPCA as an actuator to suppress the vibration of an aluminum cantilever beam with a tip mass. In our test, we used positive position feedback control algorithm. The filter frequency for this type of feedback should be tuned to the natural frequency of the target mode. The first three experimental natural frequencies of the aluminum cantilever beam agree well with the results of finite element analysis. The effectiveness of using the LIPCA as an actuator in active vibration suppression was investigated with respect to the time and frequency domains, and the experimental results show that LIPCAs with PPF control can significantly reduce the amplitude of forced vibrations and the settling time of free vibrations. For a case study, the forced vibration control of several beams with different thicknesses were performed.

원자력 발전소 중 가동년수가 오래된 발전소에서는 원자로 압력용기의 상부와 하부구조물 등에서 일부부품이 이탈되어 주 냉각재 순환계통의 주요기기를 손상시키는 사례가 있으며, 부품의 미소 결함의 정밀검사는 육안으로는 판단이 불가능하므로 원전 설비의 안정성과 신뢰성 확보 측면에서 로봇을 응용한 정밀검사가 요구되어진다. 본 논문에서는 원자로 압력용기 육안검사용 수중로봇 시스템을 설계 제작하고, 제어시스템을 구현하고, 실험을 통해 제작 구현한 수중로봇 시스템의 효용성을 보인다.

디지털 기술과 통신 기술의 발전으로 멀티미디어 컨텐츠가 급격히 증가하고 있다. 이러한 멀티미디어 컨텐츠는 다양한 유무선 서비스 환경에서 실시간 서비스가 가능해야 한다. 그러기 위해서는 멀티미디어 컨텐츠 중 가장 큰 비중을 차지하는 영상 및 오디오 컨텐츠에 대한 압축 및 전송 기술이 요구된다. 현재 여러 분야에서 영상 및 오디오에 대한 압축 표준으로는 MPEG 이 자리잡았다. 그리고 MPEG에 대한 많은 개선 노력이 있었으며 특히 테스트 모델인 TM5를 비롯한 많은 연구에서 벡터 추출이나 양자화를 이용한 방법을 중심으로 비트율을 제어하기 위한 부호화기 모델이 제시되었다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 연구 접근 방식과는 다르게 프레임 유형간의 거리를 이용하여 영상의 특성에 따라 보다 적합한 프레임 구조를 찾아 제안하였다. 즉 영상의 복잡도와 변화도에 따라 영상의 종류를 구분하고 각 종류별 영상에 대한 표준 MPEG 인코딩 화질을 기준으로 삼은 후, GOP구조 내에서 프레임 유형간의 거리를 조정하여 화질을 손상하지 않고 가장 적은 비트율을 보상하는 프레임구조를 실험 및 분석을 통해 찾아 제안하였다.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on flexural behavior and cracking process of concrete beams subjected to cycles of freezing and thawing after patch-repaired with strain-hardening cement composites (SHCCs). The SHCCs were reinforced with hybrid 0.75% PVA and 0.75% PE fibers. Experimental testing of concrete beams patch-repaired with SHCCs revealed that the SHCC patch-repair system without freeze thaw (FT) exposure showed average 3.31 times increased load carrying capacity and for beams exposed to 300 FT cycles, load carrying capacity increased up to 2.42 times. Cracking damage of SHCC patch-repaired beams mitigated compared to plain concrete beams but this trend decreased under FT exposure.

이전 까진 기판용 imprinting공법 기술 개발 과제를 하면서 imprint공정 진행시 일축형프레스를 이용하여 실험을 하면서 전면적의 균일한 압력을 가하여 절연필름의 Residue film 적게 남는것이 가장 이상적이지만, stamp두께가 전면이 똑같은 두께가 아니고 편차가 있어서 imprint를 하고나면 stamp 편차가 두꺼운 쪽은 많은 압력이 가해지고, 적은 쪽은 압력전달이 적게되어 Demolding을 하고나면 기판위에 패턴은 고르게 전사되지만 Cross section을 보게 되면 한쪽은 Residue film이 많이 남고 다른 한쪽은 적게 남게 되어 디스미어 공법시 패턴에 손상이 가지 않게 완전한 Residue film 제어가 쉽지 않고, 여러장을 동시에 한판에 imprint가 불가능 하고 기판 size가 커지면 Residue film의 편차가 심해서 더 이상 공정 진행이 불가능 했다. 하지만 Easyclave장비로 imprint를 하면 공기의 압으로 stamp전면에 똑같은 압력이 가해져 Residue film의 편차가 거의 없이 공정 진행이 가능했으며, 두께가 서로 틀려도 여러장의 기판을 동시에 imprint를 할수 있게 되었다, 일축형 프레스와 Easyclave의 실험결과를 비교하여 Easyclave장비의 imprint가능성과 이로운점을 발표하고자 한다.

It has been known that variable structure control(VSC) has theoretically powerful control technique of providing fast response, no overshoot, and very robust control with respect to system parameter variations and disturbances. However, the technique has not become more widely extended in the industrial circles because chattering phenomenon which may excite high-frequency unmodelled plant dynamics and damage to system components exists. In this paper, a modified variable structure control(MVSC) is developed to alleviate these problems which are applied to the position control of induction motor. While the conventional VSC makes the structure of the system change with high-frequency switching on the center of the one switching surface, in the MVSC two switching surface are used to establish a sliding sector. The structure of the system will be changed with low-frequency switching. Therefore, the proposed algorithm has the properties of reducing chattering, retaining the benefits achieved in the conventional VSC, and working even under the influences of parameter variations. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the control strategy proposed here for the position control of induction motor.

Rework systems are the equipment used to install or remove semiconductor chips with BGA or SMD forms in printed circuit boards. The rework systems have hot air outlets. At the outlets, precise temperature control is needed to avoid heat shock. The aim of this paper was to suggest a new controller for temperature control at the hot air outlets. The suggested controller was a fuzzy PID controller. The fuzzy PID controllers were composed of TSK fuzzy rules and had outstanding ability for nonlinear systems control. This paper reports the design algorithm of fuzzy PID controllers, and the design process of the fuzzy PID controller for the temperature control of the outlets. Temperature control experiments were performed to verify the ability of the suggested controller. As a result, the RMS of the proposed method is 9.44 and the general method is 15.88. The experiments showed that the temperatures at the outlet using the suggested fuzzy PID controller followed the desired ones better than the commonly used PID controller.

The exoskeleton robot to assist walking of hemiplegia patients or disabled persons has been studied in this paper. The exoskeleton robot with degrees of freedom of 2 axis has been developed and tested for joint motion. The obtained EMG signal from normal person was analyzed and the control signal was extracted from it for convenient and automotive performance of assistance robot to help hemiplegia patient walks as normal person does. the purpose of using FES(Functional Electrical Stimulation) for hemiplegia patient's walk is to restore damaged body function by this, but this could give fatal electrical shock to patients by wrong use or cause quick fatigue in muscle by continuous stimulation. The convenient movement of hemiplegia patients with minimum muscle fatigue was looked possibly by operation of assistance robot exoskeleton using control signal. and the walking assistance exoskeleton robot seemed works more efficiently than using FES stimulator. The experiment in this study was performed based on usual motion in our life like walking, standing-up, sitting-down, and particularly feedback control system using Piezo sensor along with button switch was applied for smooth swing motion in walking. The experiment also shows that hemiplegia patients can move conveniently by using electromyogram signal of healthy leg for the operation signal of assistance robot system attached at damaged symmetrical leg.

High Performance Fiber-reinforced Cement Composite (HPFRCC) shows the multiple crack and damage tolerance capacity due to the interfacial bonding of the fibers to the cement matrix. For practical application, it is needed to investigate the fractural behavior of HPFRCC and understand the micro-mechanism of cement matrix with reinforcing fiber. This study is devoted to the investigation of the AE signals in HPFRCC under monotonic and cyclic uniaxial compressive loading, and total four series were tested. The major experimental parameters include the type and volume fraction of fiber (PE, PVA, SC), the hybrid type and loading pattern. The test results showed that the damage progress by compressive behavior of the HPFRCC is a characteristic for the hybrid fiber type and volume fraction. It is found from acoustic emission (AE) parameter value, that the second and third compressive load cycles resulted in successive decrease of the amplitude as compared with the first compressive load cycle. Also, the AE Kaiser effect existed in HPFRCC specimens up to 80% of its ultimate strength. These observations suggested that the AE Kaiser effect has good potential to be used as a new tool to monitor the loading history of HPFRCC.

The performance of 4-switch 3-phase inverter(: FSTPI) which replace two switches of 6-switch 3-phase inverter(: SSTPI) is mainly affected by the compensator unbalanced voltages and output voltage control method. This paper proposes a DC offset current injection method to compensate the capacitor unbalanced voltages for FSTPI. A simplified SVPWM method which can be applied to FSTPI is also proposed. The validity of the proposed methods is verified by simulation and experiment using SPMSM.
