Several interesting features in trajectory were observed in the direct dynamics study of formaldehyde dissociation above radical dissociation limit. The hydrogen atom deliberately placed on the radical dissociation path can turn around at some distance from C without completion of dissociation and return to HCO moiety, colliding with it just as in a radical-radical recombination and producing a highly energized molecule. Excursion of a hydrogen atom to a distance of 6-8 bohrs and migration of a hydrogen atom back and forth between C and O are two of the most interesting features exhibited by the energized molecule. A series of excursions is seen to lead to a different kind of dissociation resembling roaming-like dissociation characterized by high vibrational excitation of $H_2$ fragment. It is suggested that excursion occurs due to involvement of two different force field systems that exhibit discontinuity in 6-8 bohrs from HCO moiety. We argue that roaming is a non-zero impact parameter version of the excursion.

Muscle force prediction in forward dynamic analysis of human motion depends many muscle parameters associated with muscle actuation. This research studies the effects of various parameters of Hill type muscle model using the simple hand raising motion. Motion analysis is carried out using motion capture system, and each muscle force is recorded for comparison with muscle model generated muscle force. Using Hill type muscle model, muscle force for generating the same hand rasing motion was setup adjusting 5 activation parameters. The test showed the importance of activation parameters on the accurate generation of muscle force.

Optimized section shape of aluminum bumper backbeam for enhancing the front high speed crashworthiness was investigated. Front body analysis model of a convertible vehicle was built up and parameter studies were carried out with changing the inner rib shape and the section thickness distribution. First an inner rib shape displaying most efficient structural performance was selected. Next, for the selected section the effect of section thickness combination was examined. Also, a light weighed backbeam section displaying crash performance over the current design was suggested. Finally RCAR front low speed impact analyses were carried out for the optimized models.

The objective of this article is investigation of dynamic response of thick multilayer functionally graded (FG) beam under generalized dynamic forces. The plane stress problem is exploited to describe the constitutive equation of thick FG beam to get realistic and accurate response. Applied dynamic forces are assumed to be sinusoidal harmonic, sinusoidal pulse or triangle in time domain and point load. Equations of motion of deep FG beam are derived based on the Hamilton principle from kinematic relations and constitutive equations of plane stress problem. The numerical finite element procedure is adopted to discretize the space domain of structure and transform partial differential equations of motion to ordinary differential equations in time domain. Numerical time integration method is used to solve the system of equations in time domain and find the time responses. Numerical parametric studies are performed to illustrate effects of force type, graduation parameter, geometrical and stacking sequence of layers on the time response of deep multilayer FG beams.

In this paper, we propose a new method for taking into account uncertainties based on the projection on polynomial chaos. The new approach is used to determine the dynamic response of a spur gear system with uncertainty associated to gear system parameters and this uncertainty must be considered in the analysis of the dynamic behavior of this system. The simulation results are obtained by the polynomial chaos approach for dynamic analysis under uncertainty. The proposed method is an efficient probabilistic tool for uncertainty propagation. It was found to be an interesting alternative to the parametric studies. The polynomial chaos results are compared with Monte Carlo simulations.

The vaporization characteristics of a liquid heptane droplet in a supercritical nitrogen flow are numerically studied. The transient conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and species are expressed in an axisymmetric coordinate system. The governing equations are solved time marching method with preconditioning scheme. The modified Soave-Redlich-Kwong equation of state is employed for taking account of real gas effects such as thermodynamic non-ideality and transport anomaly. Changing the convective velocity and ambient pressure, several parametric studies are conducted. The numerical results show that the two parameters, Reynolds number and dimensionless combined parameter(${\mu}$s/${\mu}$d)(equation omitted), have influence on supercritical droplet vaporization.

An expert system to design compressor valve systems has been developed. Design process is viewed as a chain of devisions based on the results of necessary analyses. Actual design is implemented by the interaction between the expert system and the user. In this work, it is demonstrated how a final design is achieved by utilizing the rule bases and analysis capability of the system. The structure of the rule bases and related parameter studies are also explained. Advantages of using an expert system approach for valve designs are explained using a practical example.

Generally, when servo system is used, various sensors are required to have comparison and compensation to the reference value. However, the sensors are relatively expensive, and cannot be always implemented because of the limit of space or the environmental conditions. In this paper, state observer systems without sensors are investigated. State observer systems are required to estimate the states quickly and exactly without being affected by the disturbances. Thus, in this paper, the effects of systems poles and observer poles are studies. In addition, the parameter variations are also considered to evaluate the effect of them to the observer based systems. Also, in this paper a whole system which includes compensators, observers and loads are considered and analysed by using numerical simulations.

This paper proposes the hybrid fuzzy control system for fast response time and precision control of auto-equipment which exist disturbance, parameter alteration of system, uncertainty. The purposed system, which provides the improvement in terms of the control region in high speed and precision control, first used the fuzzy control method for fast response time and when the error reaches the preset value, used the frequency-locked method for precision control. The theoretical and experimental studies have been carried out. The presented results from the above investigation show considerably improved performance in the position control of auto-equipment.

Experimental studies on vibration control of a composite beam with a piezoelectric actuator and an extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) have been performed using a neural network controller and an LQG controller. Vibration control performance was investigated in the nonlinear sensing range according to the vibration amplitudes. Using a neuro-controller, adaptive vibration control experiment has been performed for the structure with frequency variations, and its performance is compared with that of an LQG controller. The vibration control results show that the neuro-controller has good performance and robustness with respect to the system parameter variations.
