  • The paper reports the result of a 2-year long research conducted by CTBUH on the design possibilities enabled by the Ropeless and Multidirectional elevator systems, investigating how such a significant innovation (or better to say revolution) in the vertical transportation could affect tall buildings first and cities then. The purpose of the study is to prefigure the adoption of ropeless and multidirectional cabins for tall buildings mobility, with the aim to overcome the evolutionary bottleneck of the high-rise building type due to the exclusively vertical direction of transport, which limited, over the years, the design possibilities in terms of height, shape and relations with the surrounding environment. CTBUH research team, together with professionals in the field and supporting academic advisors, developed a series of design considerations on plan organizations, dispatching alternatives and on the integration of horizontal direction in the circulation, with the aim of anticipating potential and criticality arising from the application of ropeless and multidirectional systems.

  • The installation of the elevator ARD(Automatic Rescue Device) system has been forced into law in these days in order to safely rescue passengers during power failure. The configuration of the ARD system consists of energy storage device, power converter and control systems. The EDLC(Electric Double Layer Capacitor) are used as energy storage device for rapid charge/discharge purposes. The power conditioning system (PCS) consists of bi-directional converter, 3-phase converter and control system. The dead-beat control system is adopted for most systems however it requires complex mathematical calculations, the high performance microprocessors are mandatory and thus it can be a cause of high manufacturing cost. In this paper the new control method for average current mode control is presented for simple structure. The control algorithm is applied to the single phase system and then expands to three phase system to meet the sysem requirements. The mathematical modeling using average modeling method is presented and analysed by PSIM computer simulation to verifie the validity of the proposed control methods.

  • This paper proposed a control method to improve the efficiency of monitoring method by applying the nural network for an alarm processing method(APM)in an elevator facility of apartment complex. This APM is based on the cumulative generalized delta rule of backpropagation in neural network.It was used to infer the minimum alarms among multi-fired alarms, and then the inferred alarm can be dis¬played maintenance information of facility by using a pre-defined troubleshoot knowledge base. For validating the proposed monitoring method of this thesis, simulation results are compared with the operation of existing monitoring system and the way of alarm processing. The simulation method used to the three case of virtual scenario. As comparison results, a proposed method in this paper could be proved the applied possibility of an neural network and the performance in fields of facilities maintenance.

  • This paper proposes the fuzzy logic based vector control method for a Surface Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(SMPMSM) used in the elevators. The gain of a conventional PI speed controller in the elevator drive system can not be usually set high due to mechanical resonances, therefore its performance becomes deteriorated. There have been many methods to solve above problems such as an acceleration feedback in the speed controller. However, the above methods have defects that parameter information is demanded. In this paper', a Fuzzy controller(FC) is adopted in the elevator drive system. The performance of a fuzzy controller is compared with a PI controller in the no load and load conditions by simulation and experiments.

  • 인간동력 항공기 TORUK MAKTO I에 대하여 양력선이론 및 XFOIL을 사용하여 도출한 공력계수 및 미계수 값과 CATIA를 사용한 관성모멘트 추정 값을 사용하여 지면효과 및 주익과 무게중심 사이의 수직거리 변화가 인간동력 항공기의 세로 정안정성에 미치는 영향과 수평미익(스테빌레이터) 변위각제어에 따른 세로 동안정성 해석 연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과 지면효과가 정적여유에 미치는 영향은 미미했다. 공력중심과 무게중심 사이의 수직거리가 세로 정안정성에 미치는 영향은 매우 컸으며, 수직거리 증가는 세로 정안정성을 증가시켰다. 수평미익 변위각 제어에 따른 세로 동안정성 해석 결과 장주기 진동특성과 감쇄특성이 매우 나쁜 것으로 나타났다. 향후 항공기의 동특성을 고려한 세로 동안정성 해석 및 측풍에 의한 가로 및 방향 안정성 해석연구를 수행할 예정이다.

  • Due to the friction characteristics of pump, cylinder packing and passenger car, in the elevator actuated with hydraulic inverter-fed systems, there exist dead zones, which cannot be controlled by a PID controller. To overcome the drawbacks, in this paper, we propose a new hybrid control scheme, which switches the modes between a sliding mode controller and a PID controller. The proposed hybrid control scheme achieves an improved control performance by using both controllers. We first propose a design method of sliding mode controller for a hydraulic elevator system controlled by inverters, then fellowed by a design method of a hybrid sliding mode control scheme is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme are shown by simulation results, which the proposed hybrid control method yields better control performance then the PID controlled scheme, not only in the zero-crossing speed region but also in the overall control region including steady-state region.

  • In this paper, we propose a location-based service that the user's location is known by connection history to WI-FI AP installed in a facility known its location previously. The location-based service proposed in this paper manages job processing states of technicians who inspect and maintain the facility like elevator by using worker's location and arrival time information. The job scheduling management method proposed in this paper is based on previously scheduled arrival time and actual arrival time to a target facility. And we experimentally implemented the inspection and maintenance system of an elevator to show the feasibility of job schedule management based on location and arrival time information acquired from Wi-Fi AP connection history. Our experimental implementation shows that our proposed method is usefulness in the field of the inspection and maintenance of a facility.

  • When multiple elevators are installed in the building, control systems for each of the elevators, reducing energy loss by elimination of unnecessary movements and assigning appropriate elevators to passengers upon request are called the elevator group control system. However, the group control system of three or more elevators for the Disabled is being limited by the domestic laws and standards because it can not predict which unit will be called. In this paper, as an improvement plan, an integrated group control system of elevators for the general passengers and the disabled is proposed; its efficiency that decreases 16.9 % of waiting time is verified with comparison of the traditional separate group control systems. The proposed Integrated Group Control System does not violate the domestic laws and standards. Also its good performance is shown through computer simulations.
