Generally, Max-Min CRI (Compositional Rule of Inference ) method by Zadeh and Mamdani is used in the conventional fuzzy inference. However, owing to the problems of Max-Min CRI method, the inference often results in significant error regions specifying the difference between the desired outputs and the inferred outputs. In this paper, I propose a New Max-Min CRI method which can solve some problems of the conventional Max-Min CRI method. And then this method is simulated in a D.C.series motor, which is a bench marking system in control systems, and showed that the new method performs better than the other fuzzy inference methods.

This paper presents an optimal design and the performance evaluation of two-axis nano positioning stage with round notched flexure hinges. A flexure hinge mechanism with round notched flexure hinges is to guide the linear motions of a moving plate in the nano positioning stage. A Min-Max algorithm is applied to the design of the flexure hinge mechanism for nano positioning stage. In the design process, the structure of the flexure hinge mechanism is fixed, then the radius of a round hole and the width of two round holes are chosen as design variables, and finally the do sign variables are calculated by the Min-Max algorithm. The machined flexure hinge mechanism, stack type PZTs for actuation and capacitance type displacement sensors for position measurement are assembled into the nano positioning stage. The experimental results of the manufactured nano positioning stage show the first modal resonance frequency of 197 Hz, the operating range of 40 um, and the resolution of 3 nm.

Testing high reliability devices under nomal operating condition is difficult, because the devices are not likely to fail in the relatively short time available for tests. For most applications it is necessary to accelerate the causes of failure by increasing a stress above its nomal value. Previous accelerated life test(ALT) plans have shown how to find optimum allocation, lowest stress and sample size subject to minimizing the variance of mean life estimator. In these ALT plans, the highest acceptable test-stress was assumed to be specified in advance by the experimenter but there is no guidance for selecting it. This assumption is, however, inappropriate for many applications. Testing devices at too-high stress levels can invalidate the extrapolation model, or introduce failure mechanisms that are not anticipated under nomal operating conditions. In this paper, we propose new 4:2:1 compromise plans using Min-Max method to minimize this risk and present minimized test-stress levels(max, middle, min), and find sample allocation based on Min-Max 4:2:1 compromise plans. In result, we compare previous 4:2:1 compromise plans specified maximum test-stress with Min-Max 4:2:1 compromise plans minimized maximum test-stress.

Recently, there has been increased interest in the study of multiphase machines due to their higher fault-tolerant capability when compared to their conventional three-phase counterparts. For six-phase machines, stator windings configured with a single isolated neutral (1N) provide significantly more post-fault torque/power than two isolated neutrals (2N). Hence, this configuration is preferred in applications where post-fault performance is critical. It is well known that min-max injection has been commonly used for three-phase and multiphase machines in healthy condition to maximize the modulation limit. However, there is a lack of discussion on min-max injection for post-fault condition. Furthermore, the effects in terms of the common-mode voltage (CMV) in modulating signals has not been discussed. This paper investigates the effect of min-max injection in post fault-tolerant control on the voltage and speed limit of a symmetrical six-phase induction machine with single isolated neutral. It is shown that the min-max injection can minimize the amplitude of reference voltage, which maximizes the modulation index and post-fault speed of the machine. This in turn results in a higher post-fault power.

Background: Although graded exercise stress tests are widely used for the evaluation of cardiorespiratory performance, normal standards on respiratory gas exchange and ventilatory functions at maximal exercise in Koreans have not been well established. The purpose of this study is to provide reference values on these by sex and age, along with derivation of some of their prediction equations. Method: Symptom-limited maximal exercise test was carried out by Bruce protocol in 1,000 healthy adults consisting of 603 males and 397 females, aged 20~66 years. Among them VC, $FEV_1$ and MVV were also determined in 885 cases. All the subjects were members of a health center, excluding athletes. During the exercise, subjects were allowed to hold on to front hand rail of the treadmill for safety purpose. Results: The $VO_2\;max/m^2$, $VCO_2\;max/m^2$ and $V_E\;max/m^2$ were greater in males than in females and decreased with age. The RR max in men and women was similar but decreased slightly with age. The $V_T$ max was markedly greater in men but showed no significant changes with age in either gender. The mean of $V_T$ max/VC, $V_E$ max/MVV and BR revealed that there were considerable ventilatory reserves at maximal exercise even in older females. The regression equations of the cardinal parameters obtained using exercise time(ET, min), age(A, yr), height(Ht, cm), weight(W, kg), sex(S, 0=male; 1=female), VC(L), $FEV_1$(L) and $V_E$ max(L) as variables are as follows: $VO_2\;max/m^2$(L/min)=1.449+0.073 ET-0.007A+0.010W-0.006Ht-0.209S, $VCO_2\;max/m^2$(L/min)=1.672+0.063ET-0.008A+0.010W-0.005Ht-0.319S, VE max/$m^2$(L/min)=58.161+1.503ET-0.315A-9.871S or VE max/$m^2$(L/min)=47.873+6.548 $FEV_1$-5.715 S, and VT max(L)=1.497+0.223VC-0.493S. Conclusion: Respiratory gas exchange and ventilatory variables at maximal exercise were studied in 1,000 non-athletes by Bruce protocol. During exercise, the subjects were allowed to hold on to hand rail of the treadmill for safety purpose. We feel that our results would provide ideal target values for patients and healthy individuals to be achieved, since our study subjects were members of a health center whose physical fitness levels were presumably higher than ordinary population.

An additive regular Semiring S is left inversive if the Set E+ (S) of all additive idempotents is left regular. The set LC(S) of all left inversive semiring congruences on an additive regular semiring S is a lattice. The relations $\theta$ and k (resp.), induced by tr. and ker (resp.), are congruences on LC(S) and each $\theta$-class p$\theta$ (resp. each k-class pk) is a complete modular sublattice with $p_{min}$ and $p_{max}$ (resp. With $p^{min}$ and $p^{max}$), as the least and greatest elements. $p_{min},\;p_{max},\;p^{min}$ and $p^{max}$, in particular ${\epsilon}_{max}$, the maximum additive idempotent separating congruence has been characterized explicitly. A semiring is quasi-inversive if and only if it is a subdirect product of a left inversive and a right inversive semiring.

The local preconditioning method has both robust convergence and accurate solutions by using local flow properties for parameters in the preconditioning matrix. Preconditioning methods have been very effective to low speed inviscid flows. In the viscous and turbulent flows, deterioration of convergence should be overcame on the high aspect ratio grids to get better convergence and accuracy. In the present study, the local time stepping and min-CFL/max-VNN definitions are applied to compare the results and we propose the method that switches between two methods. The min-CFL definition is applied for inviscid flow problems and the min-CFL/max-VNN definition is implemented to viscous and turbulent flow problems.

The FCM based hybrid RBF network is a heterogeneous learning network model that applies FCM algorithm between input and middle layer and applies Max_Min algorithm between middle layer and output. The Max-Min neural network uses winner nodes of the middle layer as input but shows inefficient learning in performance when the input vector consists of too many patterns. To overcome this problem, we propose a dynamic learning rate control based on fuzzy logic. The proposed method first classifies accurate/inaccurate class with respect to the difference between target value and output value with threshold and then fuzzy membership function and fuzzy decision logic is designed to control the learning rate dynamically. We apply this proposed RBF network to the character recognition problem and the efficacy of the proposed method is verified in the experiment.

A direct treatment of the min-max type objective function of the dynamic response optimization problem is proposed. Previously, the min-max type objective function was transformed to an artificial design variable and an additional point-wise state variable constraint function was imposed, which increased the complexity of the optimization problem. Especially, the design sensitivity analysis for the augmented Lagrangian functional with the suggested treatment is established by using the adjoint variable method and a computer program to implement the proposed algorithm is developed. The optimization result of the proposed treatment are obtained for three typical problems and compared with those of the previous treatment. It is concluded that the suggested treatment in much more efficient in the computational effort than the previous treatment with giving the similar optimal solutions.
