This paper presents the controller of multiple DC motors using the network. This controller has been built with 16-bits one chip microprocessor (87C196CA) which includes the integrated CAN serial communication and position control for two motors. Since only one microprocessor is needed, the proposed controller is not only cost effective but also powerful. The system is composed of one main controller, trajectory planner, and the other sub controller, position controller. The main controller which has been built using Visual Basic programming on the Pentium PC, generates the trajectory and then transmits it to the sub controller. The trajectory transmitted from the PC will be processed by the sub controller. Two motors are controlled using the conventional position control, PID, to reach them the same target position but with different velocities at the same time. The communications between the main controller and sub controller is performed through the RS-232 or the CAN communication The CAN would be safer and faster than serial communication network since it has non-destructive bitwise arbitration specification. In this paper, we consider the CAN communications generally and then show the usefulness of the proposed controller by demonstrating position control of two DC motors.

Accurate positioning of the throttle valve of a gasoline engine is required to implement various systems such as traction control system(TCS), cruise control system and drive-by-wire system. In this research, position control system has been developed for the throttle actuator system that uses one throttle actuation for small volume and DC servo motor for fast response. In order to drive the DC motor, PWM signal generator and PWM amplifier were built and interfaced to the motor and controller. Also, time delay control(TDC) law has been used as a basic control algorithm. A method of varying the reference model of the TDC according to the size of change in target throttle angle is proposed here. The simulation and experimental results show that both overshoot prevention and fast response are achieved by the TDC technique with this variable reference model.

Brushless DC motor is a motor which is modified form DC brush motor and it does not have brushes. BLDCM is easy to centre, has wide speed range, high efficiency. However it needs speed sensor like encoder which increases the motor price and cause some faults in poor surroundings.. In this paper, for the sensorless control, the driving techniques for the initial stable start and the steady state are studied For the steady state the rotor position is determined using the measured back-EMF. To enhance the initial stating performance, the current signal from the free-wheeling diode is used. The results are conformed through the experiments.

Aluminum alloy is a material widely used in the aircraft industry. However, since it has relatively low hardness, strength and tribological properties, it is necessary to improve these properties. In this paper, a TiN thin film was coated on the surface of AL7075-T7351 using DC magnetron sputtering. The coating was performed by setting different deposition pressure, deposition time, and applied power. Then, the tribological properties of the thin film were investigated. As a result of the experiment, the hardness of the thin film was higher than that of the base material, and the specimen with the highest hardness had excellent friction coefficient, wear amount, and adhesive strength characteristics. Through this study, it was confirmed that the tribological characteristics of aluminum alloy can be improved by depositing thin films using DC magnetron sputtering.

In this paper we design the optimal satellite-tracking antenna $H{\infty}$ control system using genetic algorithms. To do this, we give gain and dynamics parameters to the weighting functions and apply genetic algorithms with reference model to the optimal determination of weighting functions and design parameter ${\gamma}$ that are given by Glover-Doyle algorithm which can design $H{\infty}$ controller in the state space. These weighting functions and design parameter ${\gamma}$ are optimized simultaneously in the search domain guaranteeing the robust stability of closed-loop system. The effectiveness of this satellite-tracking antenna $H{\infty}$ control system is verified by computer simulation.

Recently, development of rare earth permanent magnet with the high remanence, high coercivity allows the design of brushless motors with very high efficiency over a wide speed range. Cogging torque is produced in a permanent magnet by magnetic attraction between the rotor mounted permanent magnet and the stator teeth. It is an undesired effect that contributes to output ripple, vibration, and noise of machine. This cogging torque can be reduced by variation of magnet arc length, airgap length, magnet thickness, shifting the magnetic pole and varying the radial shoe depth and etc. In this paper, some airgap length and magnet arc that reduce cogging torque are found by finite element method(FEM) and Maxwell stress tensor method. The SPM(Surface Permanent Magnet) type of high-power Brushless DC (BLDC) motor is optimized as a sample model.

This paper describes development of a non-explosive separation device which can be equipped on small satellites. The spur geared micro DC motor, which has high reliability and advantage of price, is adopted as an actuator. The proposed separation device has resettability and it does not need extra jig to reload. In addition, the simple structure makes it easy to fabricate and assemble. To verify the performance of the proposed device, the response time tests, maximum preload tests and maximum shock level tests were performed. Also, through the vibration tests and thermal vacuum tests, feasibility of the proposed separation device was shown in launching and space environments. Therefore, we expect that the proposed separation device can replace the imported separation devices in near future.
