The method is presented which predicts voltage waveforms at each nodes inter-connected arbitrarily on the coupled transmission lines by extracting the node connection condition to be included in the modal telegrapher's equation, hence analyzing the mechanism of waveform propagation on transmission lines. It is shown that it is also possible to analyze efficiently the coupled nonuniform lines. And then the nonuniformity of coupled lines is demonstrated for suppressing the crosstalk spikes using the one-dimensional inverse-scattering control theory. The predicted waveforms by presented method are analyzed and verified by comparison with those by the generalized S-parameter technique.

This paper addresses the foot force distribution problem for quadruped robots with a failed leg. The quadruped robot has fault-tolerant straight-line gaits with one leg in locked-joint failure, and has discontinuous motion with respect to the robot body. The proposed method is operated in two folds. When the robot body stands still, we use the feature that there are always three supporting legs, and by incorporating the theory of zero-interaction force, we calculate the foot forces analytically without resort to any optimization technique. When the robot body moves, the conventional pseudo-inverse algorithm is applied to obtain the foot forces for supporting legs. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed scheme.

The power input to an infinite cylindrical shell excited by a point force is investigated. The circumferential direction and axial direction of the cylindrical shell is assumed as a two-dimensional unbounded medium, and the point force is replaced as a periodic array of imaginary sources. The spatial Fourier transform is taken from the equation of motion of the cylindrical shell, which is derived from the static model of Donell-Mushtari-Vlasov. The inverse Fourier transform is taken to derive the vibration responses. Mobility from out-of-plane forces and in-plane forces are derived from the obtained vibration responses. The theory is applied to a cylindrical shell excited by a normal direction of point force.

It has been known that general velocity and force of a rigid body in space can be described in forms of a twist and a wrench by use of screws. However, the geometrical meaning of acceleration has not been clearly disclosed. It has been a normal practice to analyze or synthesize the acceleration effect of manipulator using some complex mathematical equations, which do not represent any geometrical meanings. In other words, such a technique doesn't clearly provide information about the overall acceleration state of manipulator at that instant. In this study, the geometrical meaning of acceleration of a rigid body has been investigated and thereby a geometrical procedure which can be applied to inverse acceleration analysis of a general non-redundant manipulator is presented as an application.

This paper presents a novel pose description corresponding to the structure characteristics of parallel manipulators, which is convenient and intuitionistic to us. A class of 3-RSR parallel manipulator is considered here. Through analysis on geometry theory, we obtain a new method of the closed-form solution to the forward kinematics. The closed-form solution contains two different meanings-analytical and real-time. So we reach the goal of practical application and control. A numerical example is also presented and are verified by an inverse kinematics analysis. It shows that the method has a practical value for real-time control.

The classicla theory of statistical calibration assumes that the standard measurement is exact. From a realistic point of view, however, this assumption needs to be relaxed so that more meaningful calibration procedures may be developed. This paper presents a model which explicitly considers errors in both standard and nonstandard measurements. Under the assumption that replicated observations are available in the calibration experiment, three estimation techniques (ordinary least squares, grouping least squares, and maximum likelihood estimation) combined with two prediction methods (direct and inverse prediction) are compared in terms of the asymptotic mean square error of prediction.

A developed hybrid method for crack identification of beams is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory and concepts of fracture mechanics, governing equation of the cracked beams is reformulated. Finite element (FE) method as a powerful numerical tool is used to discritize the equation in space domain. After transferring the equations from time domain to frequency domain, frequencies and mode shapes of the beam are obtained. Efficiency of the governed equation for free vibration analysis of the beams is shown by comparing the results with those available in literature and via ANSYS software. The used equation yields to move the influence of cracks from the stiffness matrix to the mass matrix. For crack identification measured data are produced by applying random error to the calculated frequencies and mode shapes. An objective function is prepared as root mean square error between measured and calculated data. To minimize the function, hybrid genetic algorithms (GAs) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique is introduced. Efficiency, Robustness, applicability and usefulness of the mixed optimization numerical tool in conjunction with the finite element method for identification of cracks locations and depths are shown via solving different examples.

Genetic Algorithm(GA), which is based on the theory of natural evolution, has been evaluated highly for their robust performances. The optimization problems on truss structures under the prescribed displacement are solved by using GA. In this paper, the homologous deformation of structures was proposed as the prescribed displacement. The shape analysis of structures is a kind of inverse problems different from stress analysis, and the governing equation becomes nonlinear. In this regard, GA was used to solve the nonlinear equation. In this study, the shape analysis method in which not only the positions of the objective nodes but also the layout and sectional area of the member are encoded to strings in the GA as design parameters of the structures is proposed.

A simple empirical model with good quantitative prediction of inter-particle and intra-particle distance in a cake layer with respect to ionic strength was developed. The model is an inverse length scale with functions of interaction energy and hydrodynamic factor and it explains that the inter-particle and intra-particle distance in a cake is directly related to the effective size of particles. Particle compressibility with respect to ionic strength was also predicted by the model. The model corroborated very well with experimental results of polystyrene microsphere latex particles microfiltation in a dead end operation. From the results of the model, specific cake resistance could be controlled by the same variables affecting the height of particle energy barrier described by the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory.

In this paper, we have proposed a new adaptive fuzzy control algorithm based on Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model. The regulation problem for the uncertain SISO nonlinear system is solved by the proposed algorithm. Using the advanced stability theory, the stability of the state, the control gain and the parameter approximation error is proved. Unlike the existing feedback linearization based methods, the proposed algorithm can guarantee the global stability in the presence of the singularity in the inverse dynamics of the plant. The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through the problem of balancing and swing-up of an inverted pendulum on a cart.
