In this paper, we propose a direct robust adaptive backstepping speed controller for induction motors system. A robust adaptive backstepping controller is designed using high order neural networks(HONN), which avoids the singularity problem in adaptive nonlinear control. The stability of the resulting adaptive system with proposed adaptive controller is guaranteed by suitable choosing the design parameter and initial conditions. HONN are used to approximate most of uncertainties which are derived from unknown motor parameters, load torque disturbances and unknown nonlinearities. The applicability of the proposed scheme is tested simulation.

A GDHS(Geothermal District Heating System) is a heating system supplying a group of districts with heat extracted from geothermal sources. The advantages of GDHS include saving fuel consumption as well as reducing air pollution. This paper presents a case study for the economic feasibility model and analysis of a GDHS with which central/individual heating systems are replaced. Configuring to a simplified GDHS which consisits of subsurface systems, surface systems, and transmission/distribution systems, we find out the properties of the system and the model parameters affecting the initial investment/operating costs in order to develop a classical economic feasibility model given geothermal temperature. Based on our model parameter space, we analyzed the geothermal development project of the Jejoo Island probabilistically given prior information such as the expected geothermal power, the demand size and the length of transmission/distribution pipes.

In this paper, we develop a numerical method to solving an optimal control problem, which is governed by a parabolic partial differential equations(PDEs). Our approach is to approximate the PDE problem to initial value problem(IVP) in $\mathbb{R}$. Then, the homogeneous part of IVP is solved using semigroup theory. In the next step, the convergence of this approach is verified by properties of one-parameter semigroup theory. In the rest of paper, the original optimal control problem is solved by utilizing the solution of homogeneous part. Finally one numerical example is given.

Cell adhesion is a coordinated process involving initial binding of integrin receptors to extracellular matrix (ECM), recruitment of adhesion proteins, and focal adhesion assembly. The formation of mechanically stable focal adhesion assembly of cells within surrounding ECM is a key parameter to direct numerous cellular functions including cell migration, differentiation, and apotosis. With current cell adhesion assays, it is difficult to understand contributions of each coordinated event on evolution of cell adhesion strengthening since cells spontaneously spread upon their adhesion to the substrate, thus remodeling their cytoskeletal structure. In this presentation, novel approaches for analysis of cell adhesion strengthening process based on the combination of mechanical device, micro-patterned substrates, and molecular biological techniques will be discussed.

This paper is a study on the consonant recognition using neural network. First, the part of consonant was separated from the sound of vowel and consonant by the use of acoustic parameter. The rate of length vs. zero crossing rate in the sound of consonant had been studied by dividing each consonant into several groups. Finally, for the purpose of consonant recognition, the composite neural network which consists of a control network and several sub-network is proposed. The control network identifies the group to which the input consonant belongs and the sub-network recognizes the consonant in each group.

This paper is mainly concerned with the formation of delta standing wave for the scalar conservation law with a linear flux function involving discontinuous coefficients by using the self-similar viscosity vanishing method. More precisely, we use the self-similar viscosity to smooth out the discontinuous coefficient such that the existence of approximate viscous solutions to the delta standing wave for the Riemann problem is established and then the convergence to the delta standing wave solution is also obtained when the viscosity parameter tends to zero. In addition, the Riemann problem is also solved with the standard method and the instability of Riemann solutions with respect to the specific small perturbation of initial data is pointed out in some particular situations.

Hydraulic system is difficult to obtain a suitable performance due to the nonlinearity load pressure change and system parameter variation. The requirement of control a1gorithm has been complex in order to satisfy the performance. The adaptive control is a control method which is suggested to achieve the control object under the plant characteristics change. In spite of the case that plant characteristics and the degree of variation are difficult to grasp. the adaptive control could keep the characteristics of closed-loop system generally. In this study. a method of combined generalized minimum variance adaptive control (GMVAC) and output error feedback is proposed, in order to solve the problem of non-minimum phase of plant and the vibration and overshoot in initial response. The control performance according to the variation of characteristics of plant is evaluated by changing the supply pressure. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Brittle failure mechanism has been well known as growth of initial micro-damage, that causes macro crack and failure in the end. Several precise criteria are suggested recently, based on experiments values in a whole load range. Among them, Mohr-Coulomb's criterion is used widely these days, but it has a big error compared with the real failure behavior since it does not show reciprocal actions of stresses. In this study, a new brittle failure criterion is proposed, which includes the effects of brittle damage evolution by taking a brittle damage parameter specifically. Comparisons between the proposed model and the previous ones are also given.

This study proposed design parameters of opening spring of circuit breaker that cut off the over-current in order to protect the electric device about opening speed using the energy method. We simulated the opening kinetic energy, the potential energy of opening spring and the design parameters of opening spring with respect to opening speed of VCB (Vacuum Circuit Breaker)'s moving contactor which has 24kV 25kA break capacity. From the result of simulation the initial tensional force and the final tensional force of the opening spring chose 107kgf and 282kgf respectively. Through the dynamic analysis using ADAMS, We verified that the opening speed of moving contactor satisfied break capacity of VCB and analyzed opening dynamic characteristics of VCB such as the opening displacement, the opening velocity and the opening acceleration of moving contactor in time domain.

Mycelia of Streptomyces viridochromogenes grown under different pH were analysed for the fatty acid composition. The low relative proportion of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid and the high relative proportion of palmitic acid were characteristic for the young culture under slight acidic pH that caused delay of the aerial mycelium formation. The addition of L-arginine to the culture medium enabled an arginine auxotroph with bald phenotype to have the fatty acid composition similar to that of the wild type and to develop aerial mycelium. The ratio of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid to palmitic acid might be used as a parameter to explain the optimum grwoth in the respect of membrane fluidity.
