Research and a, pp.ication of earthquake protection system in Taiwan have become very active since about ten years ago. Many passive isolators, etc., have been studied extensively. These studies have resulted in a few practical a, pp.ications and proposals of two draft design provisions for seismic isolation design of bridges and buildings. In addition to the pass control, analytical studies on active semi-active control have also been very active and the experimental studies have scheduled in the near future. This paper summarise the progress on recent research and a, pp.ication of earthquake protection systems in Taiwan. The emphases are given to the control systems that have been a, pp.ied in practical a, pp.ications.

In this work, active control algorithm is adopted to reduce delamination effects of the damaged composite structure and control performance with MFC actuator is numerically evaluated. Finite element model for the damaged composite structure with piezoelectric actuator is established based on improved layerwise theory. In order to achieve high control performance, MFC actuator, which has increased actuating force, is considered as a piezoelectric actuator. Mode shapes and corresponding natural frequencies for the damaged smart composite structure are studied. After design and implementation of active controller, dynamic characteristics of the damaged smart composite structure are investigated.

The flexural vibration of aluminum beams with active and passive constrained-layer damping has been investigated experimentally to design a structure with maximum possible damping capacity. Piezoelectric film is used as a sensor and piezoceramic as an actuator for the negative velocity feedback control. The experimental results are compared with those by the finite element analysis. This paper shows the effectiveness of active constrained-layer damping treatment through experiments, and we have carried out an experiment to study the effect of beam thickness.

In this paper, an improved small-scaled blade prototype was designed with the flap-driving mechanism classified as an active vibration reduction method, in order to reduce vibratory load in the helicopter. In detail, the previous Active Trailing-Edge Flap based on piezoelectric actuator, called SNUF(Seoul National University Flap), failed to achieve the target value (${\pm}4^{\circ}$) of the flap deflection angle. Therefore, the flap-driving mechanism design was improved, and a new piezoactuator was selected to accomplish the target value of the flap deflection angle in both static and rotating situations.

In the process of accurate manufacture and measurement, it is necessarily required to isolate external or internal vibration due to external disturbance and internal actuators. The higher vibration isolation system gets damping around resonance, the better it is generally. This paper analyzes the performance of an existing passive air-spring for vibration isolation table by using experiment and simulation. Optimal design for a passive air spring can be obtained by tuning the size of the orifice. Also design for an active isolation system is carried out by applying PID controller and considering non-linearity of pneumatic characteristics with help of look-up table. We have developed the active vibration isolation table with the better isolation performance.

Active and shape morphing aerospace structures are discussed with a focus on activities aimed at practical implementation. In active structures applications range from dynamic load alleviation in aircraft and spacecraft up to static and dynamic shape control. In contrast, shape morphing means strong shape variation according to different mission status and needs, aiming to enhance functionality and performance over wide flight and mission regimes. The interaction of required flexible materials with the morphing structure and the actuating mechanisms is specifically addressed together with approaches in design and simulation.

A two-degree-of-freedom quarter-car model is used as the basis for LQ and the proposed controller design for a semi-active suspension. The LQ controller results in the best rms performance trade-offs(as defined by performance index) between ride, handling and packaging requirements. In LQ controller, however, the conflict between road holding and ride comfort remains. The adaptive semi-active suspension control based on the road frequency are introduced in this paper. With this method, the trade-off between road holding and ride comfort can be relaxed. The road frequency is estimated by wavelet transform if rattle space signal. The simulation results show that the proposed controller is superior to the conventional LQ controller.

In this paper, it is proposed the phase shifter array active system to receive digital satellite broadcasting for vehicle. To receive satellite broadcasting data in vehicle, it is inevitable to have active antenna system, which traces the satellite in real time. Also if it is used in vehicle, it must be thin and light structure. To develop this type of antenna system, several techniques should be integrated properly. These are the design and manufacturing technique of high gain antenna, algorithm for tracking satellite and its manufacturing technique, controller design and manufacturing technique, system integration technique and so on. The validity of the proposed AVDBS system was confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

The active noise control (ANC) technique attenuates acoustic noise in a flexible and effective way. Traditional ANC design aims to minimize the residual noise energy, which is indiscriminative in the frequency domain. However, human hearing perception exhibits selective sensitivity for different frequency ranges. In this paper, we aim to improve the noise attenuation performance in perceptual perspective by incorporating noise weighting into ANC design. We also introduce psychoacoustic analysis to evaluate the sound quality of the residual noise by using a predictive pleasantness model, which combines four psychoacoustic parameters: loudness, sharpness, roughness, and tonality. Simulations on synthetic random noise and realistic noise show that our method improves the sound quality and that ITU-R 468 noise weighting even performs better than A-weighting.
