The work presented here deals with controller design using error model constructed with proportional control ramp response. The design aims at the improvement of transient response, steady-state error reduction with stability preservation, generation of the consistent contour error through the proportional gain regulation of a mismatched system. The first step is to generate tracking-error curve with proportional control only and decide the added error signal shape on the error curve. The next is to construct a table for the steady-state loop gain with step input. The table is used for selecting the proportional gain. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is confirmed through the simulation and experiment.

This paper describes the design, implementation and results of a unified non-rigid image registration method for the purposes of 3D shape reconstruction from serial section images. The proposed method uses active contour-based segmentation and compensation of radial distortion. Experimental results show that multiple images can be segmented and reconstructed by active single contour as well as intra- and inter-section registration.

In this paper, a new semi-automated cyber character generating method is presented. Local edge detection tools extract face contour from graphic image files. Some graphic manipulation process detailed touch to obtain neat face contour. This method shortens the making process dramatically while maintaining the good quality similar to real face image. Some of the processed images are illustrated for clear explanation.

In this study, design parameter exploration based on finite element analysis was performed to find the optimal shape of bellows, the key component of compressor-embedded refueling tank for a newly developed hydrogen refueling station capable of high-pressure charging above 900 bar. In the design parametric study, the design variables took into account the bellows shapes such as contour radius and span spacing, and the response factors were set to the maximum stress and the gap in the contact direction. In the shape design of the compressor bellows for hydrogen refueling station considered in this study, it was found that adjusting the contour span is an appropriate design method to improve the compression performance and structural safety. From the selection of optimal design, the maximum stress was reduced to 49% compared to the initial design without exceeding the material yield stress.

Nonplanar structural walls with C-shaped and H-shaped sections have been used as an efficient lateral force-resisting system for building structures. Since the nonplanar walls are subjected to axial load and bending moments about two orthogonal axes, complicated section analysis is required for flexure-compression design. In the present study, a straightforward design method for biaxially loaded C- and H-shaped walls was proposed by modifying the existing load contour method for columns with symmetric solid sections. For this, a strain compatibility section analysis program that can calculate biaxial moment strengths of arbitrary wall section was developed and its validity was verified by comparing with existing test results. Then, through parametric study, the interaction of biaxial moments at constant axial loads in prototype C- and H-shaped walls was investigated. The results showed that, due to unsymmetrical geometry of the wall sections, the biaxial interaction was significantly affected by the moment directions and axial loads. From those investigations, non-dimensional contour equations of the biaxial moments at constant axial loads for C- and H-shaped walls were suggested. Further, design examples using the proposed contour equations were given for engineering practice.

Solid Rocket Motor(SRM) has advantages such as - high specific impulse, operational safety and simplicity in design and manufacturing process but thrust magnitude can't be controlled. For studying of pintle nozzle that can control the thrust magnitude of SRM, cold flow test and numerical analysis about needle type pintle shape were performed and results were presented in this paper. As the results of this study, pintle tip's shape and nozzle contour were important design parameters because thrust performance and variable thrust range of pintle nozzle depend on them. Especially, the thrust of needle typed pintle nozzle adopted in this test was predicted 13% higher than normal nozzle without pintle.

Tire performance is significantly influenced by the carcass tension distribution that is governed by the sidewall contour. To maximize the tire performance, it is very important for one to find the sidewall contour with the ideal tension distribution. But it is not easy to find such an optimal sidewall contour. Therefore, in order for a successful tire-shape optimization, we need to investigate how the change of sidewall radius influences on the carcass tension distribution. In this paper, we intend to numerically investigate the relation between the sidewall-radius change and the carcass tension distribution.

As the development of hydrogen vehicles has accelerated in recent years, it is necessary to develop a storage tank for hydrogen fueling stations capable of high-pressure charging, and for this purpose, a new system with a compressor-embedded refueling tank is required. In this study, the parametric study of shape design based on strength performance evaluation was carried out to find the optimal shape design of bellows, the core component of compressor-embedded refueling tank for a newly developed hydrogen refueling station capable of high-pressure charging above 1,000 bar. The design factors for parametric study were contour shape and radius of bellows, and the performance factors were the maximum stress and the gap distance in the contact direction. In the shape design of the compressor bellows for hydrogen refueling station considered in this study, it was found that adjusting the contour radius is an appropriate design method to improve the compression performance and structural safety.

The main objective of this study is to provide data on high strength concrete columns subjected to axial load and biaxial bending. For the design of biaxial bending, the approximate method (Bresler load contour method, PCA load contour method) is presented in ACI code. The present study investigate whether the methods are valid in high strength concrete and compare analysis results(by FEM method) with experimental results. Also, this study examines whether statics method and failure surface equation(by Hsu) are adequate.
