Optimal neuro-control algorithm is extended to the control of a multi-degree-of-freedom structure. An active mass driver(AMD) system on the top roof used as a controller. The control signals are made by a multi-layer perceptron(MLP) which is trained by minimizing a sub-optimal performance index. The performance index is a function of both the output responses and the control signals. Structure having nonlinear hysteretic behavior is also trained and controlled by using proposed control algorithm. Bothe the time delay effect and the dynamics of hydraulic actuator are included in the simulation. Example shows that optimal neuro-control algorithm can be applicable to the multi-degree of freedom structures.

Optimal neuro-control algorithm is extended to the control of a multi-degree-of-freedom structure. An active mass driver(AMD) system on the top roof is used as an exciter. The control signals are made by a multi-layer perceptron(MLP) which is trained by minimizing a sub-optimal performance index. The performance index is a function of both the output responses and the control signals. Structure having nonlinear hysteretic behavior is also trained and controlled by using proposed control algorithm. In training neuro-controller, emulator neural network is not used. Instead, sensitivity-test data are used. Therefore, only one neural network is used for the control system. Both the time delay effect and the dynamics of hydraulic actuator are included in the simulation. Example shows that optimal neuro-control algorithm can be applicable to the multi-degree of freedom structures.

This paper presents the vibration control for the two degree-of-freedom which is a reduced model of multi-layer structure. This reduced model is designed for the first and second order resonance in the low frequency domain where the disturbance such as the earth quake has the large energy. And a designed controller using the LQ type $H_{\infty}$ control theory shows the good performance for the impulse disturbance through the experimental results and the simulation results respectively.

An efficient procedure using LQR method for determining optimal sliding surfaces appropriate for different controller types is provided. The parametric evaluation of the dynamic characteristics of sliding surfaces is peformed in terms of SMC controller performance of single-degree-of-freedom(SDOF) systems. The control force limit is considered in this procedure. Numerical simulations for multi-degree-of-freedom(MDOF) systems verify the effectiveness of proposed method.

In this paper, the purpose is a study on structural analysis for offshore wind turbine using commercial code. Because offshore wind turbine is subjected to great wind and wave force, it is necessary to analyse the dynamics and minimize the response of wind turbine. The offshore wind turbine tower is modelled as a single degree of freedom and multi degree of freedom structure. It is assumed that the blades, nacelle are composed of concentrated masses.

Industrial mixers to homogeneously blend particulate materials have been developed and widely used in various industries. However, most industrial mixers have at most two-degree-of-freedom for the operation, which limits the range of operation parameter selection for optimal blending. This paper proposes a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic mixer designed by converging a conventional drum blender and a robotic manipulator and evaluated its performance in a virtual operating environment. Discrete element simulations were conducted for mixing performance evaluation. The numerical results showed that the proposed mixer design exhibits a better mixing performance than conventional ones.

This paper presents the magnetic equivalent circuit analysis of a double-excited, two-degree-of-freedom (DOF) motor. The double-excited, 2-DOF motor is a laminated structure, making it easy to manufacture and giving it simple operating principles. We explain the structure of the 2-DOF motor and analyze the static characteristics using a magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) to reduce analysis time. The feasibility of MEC analysis was confirmed by experimental results of the tilting, panning motion. We also confirmed the occurrence of holding torque in every motion.

Many mechanical and electrocal systems use the number of motors to make multi degree of freedom motion. One method to reduce the number of motors is suggested by using the 3 D.O.F. motor. The 3 D.O.F. motor has advantages such as downsize, weight reduction, and simplification of the existing 3 D.O.F. systems. In this study, a mathematical model for the 3 D.O.F. motor is suggested and the dynamic equation is derived to analyze the 3 D.O.F. motion. Generallinear control methods are very hard to get the good performance because of the nonlinear terms of each degree of each degree of freedom. To control the motion properly, the nonlinear terms are decoupled using a feedback control law. Nonlinear feedback control law which can arrage the poles arbitrarily is derived. The effects of the gains are examined through computer simulations.

Robots utilized in the field of welfare or agriculture should be light in weight and flexible in structure. A pneumatic actuator has properties such that it is more powerful compared with a motor of same weight, and that it is flexible, clean and unexplosive. In this paper we propose a new structure of the pneumatic actuator with two-degree-of-freedom. By using proposed pneumatic actuators, we can easily construct multi-degree-of-freedom pneumatic manipulators. Here we constructed a fourteen-degree-of-freedom pneumatic dual manipulator. The performance of the dual manipulators is confirmed through experiments for ball-handling with impedance control. In the experiments several control schemes, including the decentralized control and the simple adaptive control (SAC), were used. The results show that a flexibility of the pneumatic actuator is appropriate to accomplish the coordinative motion of the right and left arms of the robot.

A new methodology is presented for the multi-degree-of-freedom vibration absorber for an elastically suspended rigid body with the planes of symmetry in general motion. Unlike the common single degree-of-freedom vibration absorber, the presented methodology makes use of both linear and rotational properties of the absorber. It is suggested that an absorber is designed separately for the in-plane and out-of-plane axes of vibration and combined the two cases for a six-degree-of-freedom absorber. (omitted)
