The aim of the present paper is to show the effectiveness of Genetic Algorithm for data classification problems in which the classification criteria are not the Euclidean distance. In particular, in order to improve a search performance of Genetic Algorithm, we introduce a concept of the degree of population diversity, and propose construction of genetic operators and the method of calculation for the fitness of an individual using the degree of population diversity. Then, we investigate their performances through numerical simulations.

In this paper, mutual coupling effect between antennas mounted on UAV(Unmanned Air Vehicle), operating In different frequency bands, is calculated for supposing efficient arrangement. For the calculation, FDTD method is used, simulation parameters are confined to distance between antennas, height of antennas, types of ground, etc. The simulation data are compared with those of other numerical method to confirm accuracy of the results. It is appeared that the critical factor of mutual coupling is height of an antenna relative to that of the other antenna.

A fuzzy weighted mean method on a 2D shape recognition system is introduced in this paper. The bispectrum based on third order cumulant is applied to the contour sequence of each image for the extraction of a feature vector. This bispectral feature vector, which is invariant to shape translation, rotation and scale, represents a 2D planar image. However, to obtain the best performance, it should be considered certain criterion on the calculation of weights for the fuzzy weighted mean method. Therefore, a new method to calculate weights using means by differences of feature values and their variances with the maximum distance from differences of feature values. is developed. In the experiments, the recognition results with fifteen dimensional bispectral feature vectors, which are extracted from 11.808 aircraft images based on eight different styles of reference images, are compared and analyzed.

Sliding wear behaviors of Inconel 600 and 690 were investigated at room temperature in air. In the present study, Archard's equation which has low reliability was modified. In the prediction of wear volume by Archard's equation, the reliabilities of Inconel 600 and 690 were about from 26.3% to 45.7% and from 69. l% to 88.6%, respectively, The sliding wear behaviors of Inconel 600 and 690 turned out to be influenced by their stacking fault energy, and the fact was confirmed by using TEM and micro-hardness test Based on experimental results, the wear coefficient was modified as a function of the sliding distance. The calculation with the modified wear equation showed that the reliability of Inconel 600 tested with 409 ferritic stainless steel increased from 45.7% to 93.4%.

This paper presents an improved guidance algorithm for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) in 3D space for generating smoother vehicle turn during the course change at the way-points. The way-point guidance by the line-of-sight (LOS) method has been modified for correcting the reference angles to achieve minimal calculation and smoother transition at the way-points. The algorithm has two phases in which the first phase brings the vehicle to converge to a distance threshold point on the line segment connecting the first two way-points and the next phase generates an angular path with smoother transition at the way-points. Then the desired angles are calculated from the reference and correction angles. The path points are regularly parameterized in the spherical coordinates and mapped to the Cartesian coordinates. The proposed algorithm is found to be simple and can be used for real time implementation. The details of the algorithm and simulation results are presented.

In case of a line-to-ground fault at transmission lines, a portion of fault current will flow into the earth through the footings of the faulted tower causing electrical potential rise nearby the faulted tower footings. In this situation, any buried pipelines or structures nearby the faulted tower can be exposed to the electrical stress by earth potential rise. Although many research works has been conducted on this phenomena, there has been no clear answer of the required separation distance between tower footings and neary buried pipeline because of its dependancy on the soil electrical charactersics of the concerned area and the faulted system.

In mass production industries such as steel making that have large equipment, sudden stops of production process due to machine failure can cause severe problems. To prevent such situations, machine diagnosis techniques play important roles. Many methods have been developed focusing on this subject. In this paper, we propose a method for the early detection of the failure on rotating machine, which is the most common theme in the machine failure detection field. A simplified method of calculating autocorrelation function is introduced and is utilized for ARMA model identification. Furthermore, an absolute deterioration factor such as Bicoherence is introduced. Machine diagnosis can be executed by this simplified calculation method of system parameter distance with weight. Proposed method proved to be a practical index for machine diagnosis by numerical examples.

This paper presents a discrete wavelet analysis based algorithm to address the fault impedance calculation under transient state in radial power distribution networks. The fault impedances have been derived under different fault conditions. Furthermore, a recursive fault distance estimation method is proposed utilizing the measured fault impedance and power line parameters. The proposed scheme can resolve the errors caused by the non-homogeneous power lines, the presence of lateral loads since, the fault impedance will always be updated with the recursive form. For the verification of the proposed scheme, a filed test has been peformed with varying fault resistances in the 22.9(kV) radial system. Power meters and fault locators were installed at the substation. It was figured out that the performance of the discrete wavelet and the recursive scheme are very good even for high fault resistance condition.

Control devices for fire safety systems located in a engine room are to be arranged at a safe position which is easily accessible during a fire. To develop an interpretation for the safe position in engine rooms, calculation and experiments are carried out to determine a correlation between radiant heat and distance from fire in this paper. On the basis of results of this research, the control devices for a main engine are to be installed in the behind side of an obstruction to reduce radiant heat from the fire of the main engine. In case of other control devices, they are also to be provided in the same manner of control devices for the main engine or are to be placed with 5 meters far from fire hazards.

The pressure level and the insertion loss at the receiving point behind finite length noise barriers are measured in an anechoic room by scale model test. The measured sound pressure level which are conducted under the several experimental conditions such as the length of the noise barrier, the distance between the noise barrier and the receiving point, the number of noise barriers, and the existence of the reflective building behind receiving point) and the insertion loss of a noise barrier having simple shape are well agreed with theoretical calculation which is based on Lam's model.
