The response of ship roll oscillation under random ice impulsive loads modeled by Poisson arrival process is very important in studying the safety of ships navigation in cold regions. Under both external and parametric random excitations the evolution of the probability density function of roll motion is evaluated using the path integral (PI) approach. The PI method relies on the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation, which governs the response transition probability density functions at two close intervals of time. Once the response probability density function at an early close time is specified, its value at later close time can be evaluated. The PI method is first demonstrated via simple dynamical models and then applied for ship roll dynamics under random impulsive white noise excitation.

This paper presents a systematic design methodology for fault tolerant controller against a fault in actuators and sensors of linear stochastic systems with uncertainties. The scheme is based on fault detection and diagnosis(isolation and estimation) using a bank of robust two-stage Kalman filters, and accommodation of the actuator fault by eigenstructure assignment and immediate compensation of the sensor's faulty measurement. In order to clarify the fault feature in test statistics of residual, noise reduction method is given by multi-scale discrete wavelet transform. The effectiveness of our approach Is shown via simulations for a VTOL(vertical take-off and landing) aircraft subjected to parameter variations, external disturbances, process and sensor noises.

This study deals with optimal conditions for design parameters of the multistage bollard with up and down installed on the street to protect pedestrians or stop cars. FE simulation and Taguchi method are used to achieve the optimization for the automatic multistage bollard to minimize effective stress caused by the external force. Thickness, height of stage 2, diameter and over-all height which affect its structural strength are chosen as design parameters. According to the experiments combined by orthogonal array, each of the effective stresses is evaluated. And the results are analyzed by using the signal to noise ratio concept of Taguchi method. From their results, the optimal combination of design parameters are proposed.

본 논문에서 조명환경하에서 음성/영상 연동시스템을 통해서 외부음향잡음의 차단을 위한 강인한 입술움직임 영상영역을 추적하는 한 가지 방법을 제안한다. 조명환경하에서 강인한 입술움직임 영상영역을 추적하기 위해 온라인상에서 입술움직임 표준영상을 수집하였고 다양한 조명환경에 적응하는 입술 움직임 영상의 특징들을 추출하였다. 동시에 온라인 템플릿 영상을 획득하였고, 이 영상들을 템플릿 정합을 위해 사용했다. 음성/영상처리시스템의 연동결과, 다양한 조명환경하에서 그 연동률을 99.3%까지 높일 수 있었고 음향잡음에 의한 음성인식 실행을 원천적으로 차단할 수 있었다.

This Paper Proposes A Robust Image Stabilization System For A Mobile Robot Using An Extended Kalman Filter (Ekf). Though Image Information Is One Of The Most Efficient Data Used For Robot Navigation, It Is Subjected To Noise Which Is The Result Of Internal Vibration As Well As External Factors Such As Uneven Terrain, Stairs, Or Marshy Surfaces. The Camera Vibration Deteriorates The Image Resolution By Destroying The Image Sharpness, Which Seriously Prevents Mobile Robots From Recognizing Their Environment For Navigation. In This Paper, An Inclinometer Was Used To Measure The Vibration Angle Of The Camera System Mounted On The Robot To Obtain A Reliable Image By Compensating For The Angle Of The Camera Vibration. In Addition The Angle Prediction Obtained By Using The Ekf Enhances The Image Response Analysis For Real Time Performance. The Experimental Results Show The Effectiveness Of The Proposed System Used To Compensate For The Blurring Of The Images.

The overall performance of AC servo system is greatly affected by the uncertainties of unpredictable mechanical parameter variations and external load disturbances. Therefore, to compensate this problem, it is necessary to know different parameters and load disturbances subjected to position/speed control. This paper proposes an online identification method of mechanical parameters/load disturbances for AC servo system using Support Vector Regression (SVR). The proposed methodology advocates analytic parameter regression directly from the training data, rather than adaptive controller and observer approaches commonly used in motion control applications. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SVR algorithm is appropriate for control of unknown servo systems even with large measurement noise.

In this paper, we propose a voting method for capacitance measurement. Nowadays the measurement system is changing from analog system to digital system. However, capacitance measurement system has a data error because of the noise. The data of general digital measurement system include an internal and external measurement noises that highly affect to the results. Therefore, this paper proposes data compensation method using voting method. Finally, simulation results are used to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

To investigate the effect of interference current between pairs and quasi-particles, we have calculated the change I-V characteristic curve of resistively and capacitively shunted Josephson junction with external microwave by simulation of modified Stewart-McCumber model. Such rf-induced constant-voltage steps and the immunity against to noise were found to be changed in the presence of interference current.

A digital bandpass filter method is investigated for the data treatment in tile measurement of the reactor transfer function. It was found that the technique is very effective in eliminating the effects of external noise. A computer code was programmed for this method. The frequency response of a digital filter is calculated, and the data treatment with this method using a digital computer was illustrated for triangular and square waveforms. Error and restriction involved in use of this method are discussed.

A wave buoy commonly used for measurements in marine environments is very useful for measurements on the sea surface wind and waves. However, it is constantly exposed to external forces such as typhoons and the risk of accidents caused by ships. Therefore, the installation and maintenance charges are large and constant. In this study, we developed a system for monitoring the sea surface wind using marine radar to provide spatial and temporal information about sea surface waves at a small cost. The essential technology required for this system is radar signal processing. This paper also describes the analytical process of using it for monitoring the sea surface wind. Consequently, developing this system will make it possible to replace wave buoys in the near future.
