Liquified hydrogen peroxide as a monopropellant is drawing an attention as a power generating energy source for a machine requiring simple and light weight structure. The liquified hydrogen peroxide is attracted due to its outstanding applicability because it doesn't require an oxidizer and discharge a hazardous product. For the further industrial applications, however, a feasibility study should be carried out carefully in the aspect of the specific power density. In this study, a prototype of vane motor driven by the liquified hydrogen peroxide with high density of upper 95% was developed and its performance characteristic such as a specific power density was estimated via measuring pressure and rotation speed of the vane motor. The specific power density obtained by numerical simulation using FSI analysis supported by experimental results was up to $0.02kW/kg_{f}$, which reaches at the level of the latest developed fuel cell.

This study proposes an optimal design for a robotic welding system for a high-strength steel armor plate. In order to identify the welding defect parameters, we analyzed the 4M (man, machine, materials, method) characteristics diagram, as well as a cause and effect matrix, to improve the productivity and quality of welding defects. From these analyses, we designed optimal welding conditions and carried out welding tests -- such as mechanical testing and macro structure tests - with positive results. We determined that it was possible to obtain a quality similar to manual welding with our robotic welding system. In the future, we expect that the system will be used as inspiration for future welding system designs.

This paper presents a high precision integration method for the dynamic response analysis of structures with holonomic constraints. A detail recursive scheme suitable for algebraic and differential equations (ADEs) which incorporates generalized forces is established. The matrix exponential involved in the scheme is calculated precisely using $2^N$ algorithm. The Taylor expansions of the nonlinear term concerned with state variables of the structure and the generalized constraint forces of the ADEs are derived and consequently, their particular integrals are obtained. The accuracy and effectiveness of the present method is demonstrated by two numerical examples, a plane truss with circular slot at its tip point and a slewing flexible cantilever beam which is currently interesting in optimal control of robot manipulators.

It is shown that there exists a nonlinear mappping which transforms features and their changes to the desired camera motion without measurement of the relative distance between the camera and the part, and the nonlinear mapping can eliminate several difficulties encountered when using the inverse of the feature Jacobian as in the usual feature-based visual feedback controls. And instead of analytically deriving the closed form of such a nonlinear mapping, a fuzzy membership function (FMF) based neural network is then proposed to approximate the nonlinear mapping, where the structure of proposed networks is similar to that of radial basis function neural network which is known to be very useful in function approximations. The proposed FMF network is trained to be capable of tracking moving parts in the whole work space along the line of sight. For the effective implementation of proposed IMF networks, an image feature selection processing is investigated, and required fuzzy membership functions are designed. Finally, several numerical examples are illustrated to show the validities of our proposed visual servoing method.

The fuzzy-neural hybrid control system utilizing the fuzzy-neural network(FNN) will be presented in this paper. The basic structure of the controller is the parallel combination of a conventional P-controller and a FNN. Such a combination can guarantee the stability of a plant at initial stage before the rules are completely created. And a method how to automatically tunning the parameters of the FNN will be proposed with error back-propagation(BP) algorithm. Finally the effectiveness of the proposed strategy will be verified by computer simulations using a two DOF robot manipulator.

We present algebraic algorithms for collision-avoidance robot motion planning problems with planar geometric models. By decomposing the collision-free space into horizontal vertex visibility cells and connecting these cells into a connectivity graph, we represent the global topological structure of collision-free space. Using the C-space obstacle boundaries and this connectivity graph we generate exact (non-heuristic) compliant and gross motion paths of planar curved objects moving with a fixed orientation amidst similar obstacles. The gross motion planning algorithm is further extended (though using approximations) to the case of objects moving with both translational and rotational degrees of freedom by taking slices of the overall orientations into finite segments.

In this paper, we propose a new manipulator control scheme based on the CMAG neural network. The proposed control consists of two components. The feedforward component is an output of trained CMAC neural network and the feedback component is a modified sliding mode control. The CMAC accepts the position, velocity and acceleration of manipulator as input and outputs two values for the controller : One is the nominal torque used for feedforward compensation(M1 network) and the other is the inertia matrix related information used for the feedback component(M2 network). Since the used control algorithm guarantees the robust trajectory tracking in spite of modeling errors, the CMAC mapping errors due to the memory limitation are little worth consideration.

A robust position control system for a BLDC motor using new sliding mode control strategy is presented. Using the new variable structure system, reaching phase problem is eliminated and transient response is largely improved by design of nonlinear sliding surface. The design of the sliding mode position controller is robust in motor parameter, load variations and disturbance. Experiment results show that the proposed approach can achieve accurate position motor tracking in face of large parameter variations and external disturbances, such as a robot arm, etc.

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm emulating the DNA characteristics for noise-tolerant pattern matching problem on digital system. The digital pattern matching becomes core technology in various fields, such as, robot vision, remote sensing, character recognition, and medical diagnosis in particular. As the properties of natural DNA strands allow hybridization with a certain portion of incompatible base pairs, DNA-inspired data structure and computation technique can be adopted to bio-signal pattern classification problems which often contain imprecise data patterns. The key feature of noise-tolerance of DNA computing comes from control of reaction temperature. Our hardware system mimics such property to diagnose cardiovascular disease and results superior classification performance over existing supervised learning pattern matching algorithms. The hardware design employing parallel architecture is also very efficient in time and area.

This paper addresses an intelligent robot control system using an off-line programming to teach a precise assembly task of electronic components in a flexible way. The investigated task consists of three job: heat caulking test, soldering on a circuit board, and checking of soldering defects on the back cover of a camera. This study investigates the remodelling of the most complicated cell in terms of the accuracy and fault rate among the twelve cells in a camera back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance soldering quality, to add task flexibility, to reduce failure rate, and to increase product reliability. This study modifies the cell structure, and improves the soldering condition. The developed all system implements the real-time control of assembly with vision data, and realized an easier task teaching on off-line programming.
