The hydrogen-producting bacterium was isolated from fresh water and identified as Enterbacter cloacae. The isolated was named Enterobacter cloacae YJ-1. In batch culture, The optimum cultivation temperature and pH of strain YJ-1 was 35$^{\circ}C$ and 7.5, respectively. All of the added glucose was consumed completely during fermentation even though pH was not controlled. Amount of hydrogen produced on each condition of 2% glucose, 4% sucrose and 5% fructose was 950, 1000 and 948 mL/L, respectively and resulted in increasing hydrogen production approximately 2.5-times more than controlled condition. The macimum hydrogen production was obtained when 50mM phosphate was added. was obtained when 50mM phosphate was added. In repeated0batch culture, yeast extract, but the production amount was not changed on the condition of over 0.5%, Most of the organic acides produced during the fermentation were formic and acetic acid, and propionic acid was moiety also generated.

A self-structured neural network algorithm that finds optimal fuzzy membership functions and nile base to fuzzy model is proposed and a fuzzy-neural network controller is designed to get more accurate position and velocity control of wheeled mobile robot. This procedure that is composed of three steps has its own unique process at each step. The elements of output term set are increased at first step and then the rule base Is varied according to increase of the elements. The adjusted controller is in competition with controller which doesn't include any increased elements. The adjusted controller will be removed if the control-law lost. Otherwise, the controller is replaced with the adjusted system. After finished regulation of output term set and rule base, searching for input membership functions is processed with constraints and fine tuning of output membership functions is done.

In this paper, we have proposed the QoS (quality of services) control scheme which can adjust data transfer rates of the session participants in response to their radio channel conditions under the time-varying propagation radio environment. The outage probability is selected as the performance index in order to compare the performance of the proposed scheme with the conventional QoS control scheme. The outage probability of the single and multiple paths is mathematically derived here and its numerical results are investigated. The results show that the significant performance improvement can be obtained compared with the conventional scheme and also the diversity gain can improve the radio link outage as the degrees of the multipath diversity increases. Therefore the overall performance improvement in terms of the QoS of the outage probability can be significantly be achieved by applying the proposed scheme.

A 12b 10MS/s pipelined ADC with low DC gain amplifiers is presented. The pipelined ADC using a reference scaling technique is proposed to compensate the gain error in MDACs due to a low DC gain amplifier. To minimize the performance degradation of the ADC due to amplifier offset, the proposed offset trimming circuit is employed m the first-stage MDAC amplifier. Additional reset switches are used in all MDACs to reduce the memory effect caused by the low DC gain amplifier. The measured differential and integral non-linearities of the prototype ADC with 45dB DC gain amplifiers are less than 0.7LSB and 3.1LSB, respectively. The prototype ADC is fabricated in a $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process and achieves 62dB SNDR and 72dB SFDR with 2.4V supply and 10MHz sampling frequency while consuming 19mW power.

In this paper, a motor parameter identification system has been implemented to improve the performance of the position sensorless stroke controller for linear compressors. In order to control the cooling capability of a refrigerator or an air conditioner in which linear compressors are applied, the piston speed should be controlled. The piston speed control can be obtained by adjusting the frequency or the stroke of linear motors. The dynamic performance of linear compressors depends on how accurately the stroke or the piston amplitude is estimated. The merits and demerits of Constant method and PIM (Parameter Identification Method) concerning the needed memory space and the stroke error are discussed and verified via some experimental studies.

In this paper, a DC servo motor position control system based on acceleration control is proposed. The proposed control system consists of an acceleration controller and an auto-tuqing fuzzy PID controller. The auto-tuning fuzzy PID controller provides corrections for an acceleration reference to remove the effect of parametric uncertainties.

Therefore, the proposed control scheme enhances the applicability of an acceleration control approach and especially performs accurate position control under such an operating environment that model uncertainties exist and/or load, etc. change significantly.

The conventional Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (C-SHPB) technique with aluminum pressure bars to achieve a closer impedance match between the pressure bars and the specimen materials such as hot temperature degraded POM (Poly Oxy Methylene) and PP (Poly Propylene) to obtain more distinguishable experimental signals is used to obtain a dynamic behavior of material deformation under a high strain rate loading condition. An experimental modification with Pulse shaper is introduced to reduce the nonequilibrium on the dynamic material response during a short test period to increase the rise time of the incident pulse for two polymeric materials. For the dynamic stress strain curve obtained from SHPB experiment under high strain rate, the Johnson-Cook model is applied as a constitutive equation, and we verify the applicability of this constitutive equation to the probabilistic reliability estimation method. The methodology to estimate the reliability using the probabilistic method such as the FORM and the SORM has been proposed, after compose the limit state function using Johnson-Cook model. It is found that the failure probability estimated by using the SORM is more reliable than those of the FORM, and the failure probability increases with the increase of applied stress. Moreover, it is noted that the parameters of Johnson-Cook model such as A and n, and applied stress affect the failure probability more than the other random variables according to the sensitivity analysis.

Butterfly valves have been used for shut-off and throttling-control application in many industrial fields. Recently, they are frequently used for cooling water, oil system and ballast piping system of many larger vessels. They are especially suited for flow throttling control of heat exchangers in engine room. Measurement by the PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) was conducted to investigate the flow characteristics of butterfly valve inserted within circular pipe. Flow behaviors such as instantaneous and time-mean velocity vectors are investigated. Furthermore, to reveal systematic performance of the butterfly valve, wall pressure was measured at 6 points along the pipe by digital manometer. As the valve position moves to the closed side, flow separation increases and persists its tendency downstream until smoothly uniform flow developed. The pressure loss is found to be about zero for the disk open angles less than 45 degrees, but is substantially increased for those larger than 60 degrees.

This paper defines the probability models for determining the disparity map given stereo images and derives the methods for solving the problem, which is proven to be equivalent to an energy-based stereo matching. Under the assumptions the difference between the pixel on the left image and the corresponding pixel on the right image and the difference between the disparities of the neighboring pixels are exponentially distributed, a recursive approach for estimating the MRF regularizing parameter is proposed. Usually energy-based stereo matching methods are so sensitive to the parameter that it should be carefully determined. The proposed method alternates between estimating the parameter with the intermediate disparity map and estimating the disparity map with the estimated parameter, after computing it with random initial parameter. It is shown that the parameter estimated by the proposed method converges to the optimum and its performance can be improved significantly by adjusting the parameter and modifying the energy term.
