Presented in this paper is a systematic approach to "modeling and simulation' of flow lines in mass production systems, using a tire trimming line as an example. The "modeling phase" consists of 1) generation of alternative line configurations, 2) construction of a reference model for each alternative, and 3) formal description of the target system. ACD(Activity Cycle Diagrams) are employed as a tool for formal description. In the "simulation phase'. block diagram models (provided by the simulation language SIMAN) and the next event methodology(implemented in FORTRAN 77) are combined in order to fully describe the flow line behavior.

Segmenting the image into multiple regions is at the core of image processing. Many segmentation formulations of an images with multiple regions have been suggested over the years. We consider segmentation algorithm based on the multi-phase level set method in this work. Proposed method gives the best result upon other methods found in the references. Moreover it can segment images with intensity inhomogeneity and have multiple junction. We extend our method (GLIF) in [T. Dultuya, and M. Kang, Segmentation with shape prior using global and local image fitting energy, J.KSIAM Vol.18, No.3, 225-244, 2014.] using a multiphase level set formulation to segment images with multiple regions and junction. We test our method on different images and compare the method to other existing methods.

This paper presents a systematical approach to study carrier based PWM techniques (CPWM) in diode-clamped and cascade multilevel inverters by using a proposed named multi-modulating pattern method. This method is based on the vector correlation between CPWM and the space vector PWM (SVPWM) and applicable to both multilevel inverter topologies. A CPWM technique can be described in a general mathematical equation, and obtain the same outputs similarly as of the corresponding SVPWM. Control of the fundamental voltage, vector redundancies and phase redundancies in multilevel inverter can be formulated separately in the CPWM equation. The deduced CPWM can obtain the full vector redundancy control, and fully utilize phase redundancy in a cascade inverter In this continued part, it will be deduced correlation between CPWM equations in multi-carrier system and single carrier system, present the mathematical model of voltage source inverter related to the common mode voltage and propose a general algorithm for multi-modulating modulator. The obtained theory will be demonstrated by simulation results.

This paper presents the integrated magnetic circuit designing method for phase shift full bridge(PSFB) converter. The integrated magnetic circuit is implemented on redesigned of EI core. The transformer windings are located on center leg and the two inductors are located on the outer legs with air gap. Based on the equivalent circuit model, the principle of operation of the PSFB converter is explained. The operation and performance of the proposed circuit are verified on a 1.2 kW prototype converter. The analysis and design of the integrated magnetic circuit is verified through the experimental and simulation results.

In this paper, a new controller for a single-phase PWM converter is described, which requires only two input parameters, the dc voltage and the ac current. Detail simulation model with EMTDC(Electro-Magnetic Transient program for DC transmission) including power circuit and controller was developed to verify the operation of proposed controller. The application feasibility of the proposed controller was verified through experimental works with a prototype. The proposed controller has a simple structure in the point of hardware implementation, and shows excellent performance in normal operation as well as in sudden load change.

The power steering system for vehicles is becoming essential for supporting the steering efforts of the drivers, especially for the parking lot maneuver Although hydraulic power steering has been widely used for years, its efficiency is not high enough. The problems associated with a hydraulic howe. steering system can be solved by a motor driven power steering (MDPS) system. In this study, a dynamic model and a control algorithm for the ball screw type of MDPS system have been derived and analyzed by using the method of discrete modeling technology. To improve steering feel and power steering characteristics, two derivative gains are added to the conventional power boosting control algorithm. Through simulations, the effects of the control gain on the steering angle gain were verified in the frequency domain. The steering returnability and steering torque phase lag in on-center handling test were also evaluated in the time domain.

This paper proposes a form-based distributed database design methodology ($FD^3$). The methodology consists of five design phases such as (i) form requirement analysis (ii) schema integration (iii) distribution analysis (iv) distribution design, and (v) local logical/physical design. In the $FD^3$, all the important design information for each phase is obtained by using an organizations forms, Users requirements are analyzed by using forms that contain logical and quantitative information for distribution design. $FD^3$ resolves naming conflicts by employing SQLs based on the form field data in the schema integration phase. Furthermore, $FD^3$ enhances the quality of distributed database design by incorporating communication costs into the design model. A real-life case is illustrated to demonstrate the usefulness of the $FD^3$.

For a walking robot with high constant body speed, the dynamic effects of the legs on the transfer phase are dominant compared with other factors. This paper presents a new force distribution algorithm to maximize walkable terrain without slipping considering the dynamic effects of the legs on the transfer phase. Maximizing the walkable terrain means having the capability of walking on more slippery ground under the same constraint, namely constant body speed. A simple force distribution algorithm applied to the proposed walking model with a pantograph leg shows an improvement in the capability of preventing foot-slippage compared with one using a pseudo-inverse method.

On this study, numerical analysis was performed for the 3 dimensional flow field of gas and particle phase for axial inlet cyclone, a part of dust collector. We applied FVM to visualize the gas phase. The flow was solved using ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. The major parameters considered in this study were helical guide vane, inner diameter, length. Particle trajectory calculations were performed for the particle sizes of $5{\mu}m{\sim}75{\mu}m$. The distribution curve of particle sizes was made of Rosin-Rammler function. The simulation results show various gas flows, particle trajectories on numerical models.

A theoretical model describing the behavior of isolated pores during liquid phase sintering was developed and the experimental results obtained by the $80MgO-CaMgSiO_4$ specimens were given. Most of isolated pores once formed in the interior of specimen were not eliminated because the pressure of trapped non-diffusable gas in the pore like $N_2$ increases very rapidly with pore volume contraction. As sint-ering time increase it was observed that the number of pores decreases whereas the average size of pore increases. This phenomenon was interpreted in terms of the MgO growth during sintering which results in the coalescence of isolated pores. The increase of pore size resulting from pore coalescence was attributed to the main cause of the overfiring phenomena ; the higher sintering temperature or a long time sintering leads to a decrease in density.
