Aerodynamic power and torque of wind turbine are highly nonlinear and its operation mode depends on control strategies. Therefore, it is essential to define steady-state curves for the purpose of control and operation of wind turbine system. The steady-state curves of wind turbine can be defined by determining its operating points. In this paper, an algorithm to determine operating points of variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbine is presented on the basis of pitch-to-feather control strategy. And this algorithm is applied to obtain steady-state curves for an 1.5MW wind turbine.

In this paper, the comparison of the first order approximation schemes such as SLP (sequential linear programming), CONLIN(convex linearization), MMA(method of moving asymptotes) and the second order approximation scheme, SQP(sequential quadratic programming) was accomplished for optimization of and nonlinear structures. It was found that MMA and SQP(sequential quadratic programming) was accomplished for optimization of and nonlinear structures. It was found that MMA and SQP are the most efficient methods for optimization. But the number of function call of SQP is much more than that of MMA. Therefore, when it is considered with the expense of computation, MMA is more efficient than SQP. In order to examine the efficiency of MMA for complex optimization problem, it was applied to the helicopter tail boom considering column buckling and local wall buckling constraints. It is concluded that MMA can be a very efficient approximation scheme from simple problems to complex problems.

An efficient correction storage scheme on a structured grid is applied to a sequence of approximate Jacobian systems arising at each time step from a linearization of the discrete nonlenear system of equations, obtained by the implicit time discretization of the conservation laws for unsteady fluid flows. The contribution of freezing the Jacobian matrix to computing costs is investigated within the correction storage scheme. The performance of the procedure is exhibited by measuring CPU time required to obtain a fully developed laminar vortex shedding flow past a circular cylinder, and is compared with that of a collective iterative method on a single grid. In addition, some computed results of the flow are presented in terms of some functionals along with measured data. The computational test shows that the computing costs may be saved in favor of the correction storage scheme with the frozen Jacobian matrix, to a great extent.

In this paper, the cost for capacitive reactive flower is evaluated considering the deregulation environment. For the cost assessment of reactive power, the duration curve of reactive power demand is introduced and investigated. Also, a guideline is suggested to estimate the Q-cost by using the inverse of the Q-demand duration curve. In order to obtain optimal real reactive power allocation, a new algorithm is proposed by using the piecewise linearization of the inverse of the Q-demand duration curve and the Linear Programming technique. The proposed method is tested with sample systems using MATLAB. The test results show that the algorithm yields reasonable reactive power allocation and Provides fair cost evaluation for reactive power.

Recently, the Electro-Hydrostatic Actuator(EHA) has been developed as a result of research on energy saving. EHA is usually composed of a direct driven pump from an electric motor and is available to control cylinder displacement or velocity with high efficiency. In addition, it has the advantage of compactness, minimum leakage and availability of decentralized control. In this study, an EHA system was designed to decrease the path tracking error and manufactured for test. The linearization method provided in AMESim software was used to derive the model of EHA system. The derived model was applied to design the PI-D controller to effectively overcome the disturbance. The effectiveness of this controller was verified by further testing.

The performance of dynamic path following of a wheeled mobile robot with nonholonomic constraints has some drawbacks such as the influence of the initial state. The drawbacks can be overcome by the temporary path generator and modified output. But with the previous input-output linearization method using them, it is difficult to tune the gains, and if there are some modeling errors, the low gain can make the system unstable. And if a high gain is used to overcome the model uncertainties, the control inputs are apt to be large so the system can be unstable. In this paper. an H$_{\infty}$ controller is designed to guarantee robustness to model parameter uncertainties and to consider the magnitude of control inputs. And the solution to Hamilton Jacobi (HJ) inequality, which is essential to H$_{\infty}$ control design, is obtained by nonlinear matrix inequality (NLMI).

This paper presents 3D position estimation algorithm with the images of 2D vision sensors which issues Red Laser Slit light and recieves the line images. Since the sensor usually measures 2D position of corner(or edge) of a body and the measured point is not fixed in the body, the additional information of the corner(or edge) is used. That is, corner(or edge) line is straight and fixed in the body. For the body which moves in a plane, the Transformation matrix between the body coordinate and the reference coordinate is analytically found. For the 3D motion body, linearization technique and least mean squares method are used.

Composite materials also known as fiber reinforced plastics have been developed and used in many engineering applications due to their outstanding mechanical properties. Laminated plates as structural components that are made of in composite material are widely used. Therefore, nonlinear response of laminated composite plates modeled with finite elements and excited by stochastic loading is studied. The classical laminated plate theory is used to account for the variation of strains through the thickness for modeling laminated thin plates. Approximate nonlinear random vibration analysis is performed using the method of equivalent linearization to account for material non-linearity.

In this paper, the effective ionization coefficients (${\alpha}-{\eta}$/Po) are measured by the steady state Townsend method in Townsend discharge domain. The effective ionization coefficients are measured in the range 75${\leqq}$E/Po${\leqq}$150(V/Torr. cm) in $SF_{6}$. The values of the effective ionization coefficients are easily and precisely determined by means of the linearization of current growth equation. The effective ionization coefficients of $SF_{6}$ were agreement with that of Bhalla and Craggs.

An attractive approach to speed of induction motors is to achieve full linearization via appropriate feedback. However, the prior results toward this direction are based on full feedback. In practice, rotor fluxes are not directly measurable but can be estimated using observers. We propose a nonlinear feedback controller with an observer. As t${\rightarrow}{\infty}$, the closed-loop system with our controller becomes as if it were a linearly decoupled system. We provide the stability analysis of our control method. Simulation and experimental results are also included to demonstrate the practical significance of our results.
