In this paper, we present a magnetic levitation system which has not a gap sensor with sensor-less realization and stabilizing controller design. For measuring gap between magnet and levitated object we propose a gap sensorless method and adop two-degree-of-freedom controller for robust-ness and performence of the magnetic levitation system. From time responeses we confirm that the proposed sensorless method which can be applied to magnetic levitation system. Also the designed stabilizing controller has good disturbance rejection and reference tracking performance.

The major influence factor on chloride penetration into concrete structures is chloride ion concentration. In this study, chloride penetration analyses with chloride ion concentration were carried out by the developed program. Also, the service life of concrete structures was predicted. The penetration depth was 32mm in case that chloride ion concentration wad 600ppm. It was shown that the service life of concrete structures with 40mm cover depth was 167 years even though they had been exposed at chloride ion concentration 600ppm during 100 years.

In 1980's to 1990's the marine propulsion diesel engines have been developed into lower speed and longer stroke for the energy saving(small S.F.O.C.). As these new trends the convetional mechnical-hydraulic governors were not adapted to the new requirements and the digital governors have been adopted in the marine use. The digital governors usually use the control algorithms such as the PID control, optimal control, adaptive control and etc. While the engine has delay time and parameter variations these control algorithms have difficulty in considering the stability and the robustness for the model uncertainty. In this study, the $H_{\infty}$ controller design method are applied to the speed control of the low speed marine diesel engine. By comparison the $H_{\infty}$ control results with the PID control results, the validity of the $H_{\infty}$ controller under the delay time and parameter variations is confirmed.

The PID controller is one of the most popular devices for control systems and the adjustment of its parameters has been generally accomplished by semi-empirical rules and has been considered only in the view of improvement of the control performance. But in modern control theory, a quadratic form is introduced as a criterion function which considers not only to improve quality of control but also to save energy required for the control. In this paper, authors propose a method of the parameter adjustment of the PID controller by means of maximum principle minimizing the quadratic criterion function and establish a link between the conventional parameter adjustment method and the technique of the modern optimal control theory in the design of a PID controller.

This paper describes an automatic weld seam tracking method of plasma arc welding system designed for the corrugation panel that consists of a linear section and a curved section with various curvatures. Due to the complexity of the panel shape, it is difficult to find a seam and operate a torch manually in the welding process. So, the laser vision sensor for seam tracking is designed for sensing the seam position and controlling a torch automatically. To achieve precise seam tracking, the design of sensor head, image simulation, and calibration are carried out. Through a series of experiment result, compensation algorithm is added and real time error compensation is achieved. The experiment result shows that this vision sensor works effectively. It will provide more precise welding performance and convenience to the operator.

Objective: This study was done to treat autoimmune chronic active heaptitis Jaundice patient. Method: I analyzed the medical records of a case of autoimmune chronic active hepatitis Jaundice who had been treated with korean traditional medicines from 1 December 2003 through 6 July 2004. Result: Following the korean traditional medicine method, during taking medicine the hematological markers (aspartate transferase(AST), alanine aminotranferase(ALT), Total bilirubin(T.bili)) were effectively controled.

Magnetic levitation system is nonlinear and inherently unstable, so it is difficult to control. Analog control circuit was widly used as the controller of magnetic levitation system, but digital controller is now substituted for analog controller according to development of digital electronics. In this study, Atmel AVR series, ATmega 128 which is a kind of $\mu$-processor for digital controller is used because the chip is cheap and popular. We designed and made ATmega 128 one-board controller and aimed to verify validity through the experiance of levitation response.

This paper is concerned with the vibration control of multi-layer structure for ultra-tall buildings and main tower of large bridge etc. We have modeled the multi-layer structure with the distributed mass system as the lumped mass system of two-degree-of-freedom structure and made experimental equipment. The $H_\infty$control theory was applied to the design of the control system. The designed control system was simulated by computer. As a result, the designed $H_\infty$controller showed the good vibration control performance to impulse response and frequency response.

The inverted pendulum is one of the control mechanism that has been frequently used to verify the control theory in the laboratory. In this paper, the author made an inverted pendulum driven by DC servomotor with a simple DC motor drive circuit, and constituted a control system. The control mechanism is modeled, and identified parameters of inverted pendulum system by experimental method. The author used the LQ regulator as control algorithm and the minimum order observer algorithm to observe states that can not be measured. And the validity of parameter identification and the excellent performance of the control system designed by LQR are confirmed.
