A new composite control method for a carriage balancing single inverted pendulum system is proposed and applied to swing up the pendulum and to stabilize it under the state constraint. The target inverted pendulum system has an extremely limited length of the cart(below 16cm). The proposed swing-up controller comprises a sliding mode control algorithm and an optimal control algorithm based on two regions: the region near the inverted unstable equilibrium position and the rest of the state space including the downward stable equilibrium position. The sliding mode controller uses a switching control action to converge along the specified path(hyperplane) derived from energy equation from a state around the path to desired state(standing position). An optimal control method is also used to guarantee the stability at unstable equilibrium position. Compared with the reported controllers, it is simpler and easier to implement. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of this controller.

Position of a circular or elliptical cutout within an orthotropic plate has great influence on its buckling behavior. This paper aims at finding the optimal position (both location and orientation) of a single circular/elliptical cutout, within an orthotropic rectangular plate, that maximizes the critical buckling load. We consider linear buckling of simply supported orthotropic plates under uniaxial edge loads. To obtain the optimal positions of the cutouts, we have employed a MATLAB optimization routine coupled with buckling computation in ANSYS. Our results show that the position of the cutout that maximizes the buckling load has great dependence on the material properties, laminate configurations, and the geometrical parameters of the plate. These optimal results, for a number of plate geometries and cutout sizes, are reported in this paper. These results will be useful in the design of perforated orthotropic plates against buckling failure.

In this paper, optimal position of optical phase conjugator(OPC) for best compensating distorted WDM channels due to both chromatic dispersion and self phase modulation(SPM) is numerically investigated, and the compensation characteristics of overall WDM channels at this position is investigated, comparing with that in case of OPC placed at mid-way of total transmission length. It is confirmed that the compensation extents in WDM system with OPC is more improved by the shifting OPC position from the mid-way of total transmission length. And, we confirmed that the optimal position of OPC must be selected to the position decreasing not only eye opening penalty(EOP) of overall WDM channels but also EOP deviation between WDM channels, and this OPC position should be altered as various system parameters such as modulation format, and fiber dispersion, etc. Using proposed configuration, it is possible to remove all in-line dispersion compensator, reducing span losses and system costs.

This paper described an optimal control technique for position control of an inverter-fed PMSM drive. A control system of PM machine for position, speed and current control based on optimal sliding mode control system is discussed. This is an effective means to keep a system insensitive to parameter variation, disturbance and chattering reduction. The main purpose of the control is to improve the dynamic response of the PMSM with the load of the inertial plant. The optimal sliding mode control strategy is analyzed and the performance is investigated by the computer simulation using actual parameters of a drive system, Simulation results are given and discussed.

Objective: Planning of incisal position is crucial for optimal orthodontic treatment outcomes due to its consequences on facial esthetics and occlusion. A systematic summary of the proposed parameters is presented. Methods: Studies on Google Scholar^©, PubMed^©, and Cochrane Library, providing quantitative information on optimal central incisor position were included. Results: Upper incisors supero-inferior position (4-5 mm to upper lip, 67-73 mm to axial plane through pupils), antero-posterior position (3-4 mm to Nasion-A, 3-6 mm to A-Pogonion, 9-12 mm to true vertical line, 5 mm to A-projection, 9-10 mm to coronal plane through pupils), bucco-lingual angulation (4-7° to occlusal plane perpendicular on models, 20-22° to Nasion-A, 57-58° to upper occlusal plane, 16-20° to coronal plane through pupils, 108-110° to anterior-posterior nasal spine), mesio-distal angulation (5° to occlusal plane perpendicular on models). Lower incisors supero-inferior position (41-48 mm to soft-tissue mandibular plane), antero-posterior position (3-4 mm to Nasion-B, 1-3 mm to A-Pogonion, 12-15 mm to true vertical line, 6-8 mm to coronal plane through pupils), bucco-lingual angulation (1-4° to occlusal plane perpendicular on models, 87-94° to mandibular plane, 68° to Frankfurt plane, 22-25° to Nasion-B, 105° to occlusal plane, 64° to lower occlusal plane, 21° to A-Pogonion), mesio-distal angulation (2° to occlusal plane perpendicular on models). Conclusions: Although these findings can provide clinical guideline, they derive from heterogeneous studies in terms of subject characteristics and reference methods. Therefore, the optimal incisal position remains debatable.

This paper utilizes an optimal control law for the accurate tracking servo system design. The devivation of a simple control law implementing microprocessor is made to minimize position and speed error of the controller. The 16 bit microprocessor receives command angular position and calculate the control algorithm for accurate tracking and provides control system gain scheduling to achieve very short settling time. Simulation results and some experimental results of the position controlled tracking using 4.5Kw DC servo motor are shown.

Ultrasonic inspection of austenitic steel weldments is a truly difficult task due to complicated wave propagation phenomena such as beam skewing, splitting and distortion. In order to understand these phenomena and design proper inspection procedures, simulation is increasingly paid more attention to. This article addresses a ray tracing based approach to determine incident angle and position of optimal wave mode ultrasonic beam for flaw detection in anisotropic and inhomogeneous austenitic steel weldments. Specially, the optimal mode of ultrasonic wave wave is selected by ray tracing simulation, and an optimization approach based on ray tracing and bi-section search is proposed in order to find the ray path connecting two given points in weldments. With help of this approach, the optimal incident angle and position of ultrasonic beam can be determined for a given flaw position.

The time optimal position control scheme based on the Pontryagin's minimum principle is proposed in the current source inverter(CSI) fed induction motor system. The field oriented induction motor system is modelled with a second order plant and a switching curve is obtained by solving Hamiltonian equation. The validity of time optimal control solution has been verified by experimental tests carried out with a prototype MC68000 based microcomputer system, and 5Hp induction motor. Experimental results are in a close agreement with those the digital simulation ones.

For the goal of the proposal for optimum position of offset outrigger system, a structural schematic design of 70 stories building was carried out, using the general structure analysis program of MIDAS-Gen. In this research, the primary factors of this analysis research were the shear wall stiffness, the frame stiffness, the outrigger stiffness, the stiffness of column linked in outrigger system, etc. To achieve the aim of this study, we analyzed and studied the lateral displacement in top level, the force distribution of outrigger, the existing model of optimal outrigger location, and so on. This paper proposed the optimal position of offset outrigger system. Furthermore it is considered that the study results can be useful in getting the structure engineering data for seeking the optimal position of offset outrigger in the tall building.
