  • Supernova remnants (SNRs) are one of the most energetic astrophysical events and are thought to be the dominant source of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs). A recent report on observations of gamma rays from the vicinity of SNRs have shown strong evidence that Galactic CR protons are accelerated by the shock waves of the SNRs. The actual gamma-ray emission from pion decay should depend on the diffusion of CRs in the interstellar medium. In order to quantitatively analyze the diffusion of high-energy CRs from acceleration sites, we have performed test particle numerical simulations of CR protons using a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulation of an interstellar medium swept-up by a blast wave. We analyse the CRs diffusion at a length scale of order a few pc, and show the Richtmeyer-Meshkov instability can provide enough turbulence downstream of the shock to make the diffusion coefficient close to the Bohm level for energy larger than 30 TeV for a realistic interstellar medium.

  • The ball screw actuated by the electric motor is widely used as an essential actuator for driving the mechanical system by virtue of accuracy and force transmission capability. In this paper, a design of the global sliding mode control is presented to drive the ball screw actuator along the minimum time trajectory, In the proposed control scheme, if the ranges of parametric uncertainties and torque limits of the system are specified, the arrival time of the load along the minimum time trajectory can be estimated. Also, the arriving time at the reference input and the maximum acceleration are expressed in a closed form solution. Conversely, the capacity of a ball screw actuator including the motor can be easily designed if the external load and its transportation time are specified. The superior performance of the proposed control scheme and analysis is validated by the computer simulation and experiments comparing with other sliding mode controllers.

  • Overhead cranes consist of trolley, girder, rope, objects, trolley motor, girder motor, and hoist motor. If objects are regarded as mass point, and the acceleration of hoisting motion for objects is neglected, analytical model of overhead cranes becomes a nonlinear model because the length of a rope changes. Equations of motion this model is derived of simultaneous differential equations fur motors and object. Positions of the model are controlled by optimal inputs which obtain from a nonlinear optimal control method. From the results of computer simulation, even if initial states of objects suing, it is founded that position of overhead cranes is controlled, and that swing of objects is suppressed.

  • This paper presents an algorithm for general 2D and 3D NURBS interpolation and deals with command generation for 3 axes milling machining, including the feedrate control in order to meet two limitations, a geometrical accuracy and a dynamic restriction. Both of the maximum chordal error and the maximum acceleration specified by machine parameter lead to limit the allowable feedrate on the curvature of NURBS tool path. So, motion commands at every sampling time are continuously generated by those two limitations and programmed feedrate. Simulation results of interpolating several NURBS curves show that proposed NURBS algorithm is favorable in the machining free-form curve

  • The current vibration reduction methods for positioning systems lead to either complicated motion or the need for additional hardware when the positioning systems carry out frequent short-distance movements. This paper proposes a simple yet efficient vibration reduction method for positioning systems subjected to frequent short-distance movements. The essence of the proposed method is the trapezoidal or triangular velocity profiles, whose acceleration/deceleration rates are designed to be related to the natural frequency of concern. The combined use of the proposed method and the input shaping method is also proposed for the possible application to multi-mode systems. Experiments are performed to validate the proposed method. The simulation and experiments prove that the proposed method is of great use for residual vibration reduction in positioning systems subjected to frequent short-distance movement.

  • In this paper, engine-CVT consolidated control algorithm was developed. Engine -CVT control strategy suggested uses throttle control based on power difference and CVT ratio control based in CVT ratio map. Simulation results showed that the larger the rate of CVT ratio, the better the engine performance in the optimal operation line. Also, it was found that the engine performance where the magnitude of the acceleration changes abruptly depends on the magnitude of the rate of CVT ratio. Comparing the results of CVT control only without engine control, the engine-CVT control algorithm suggested in this work showed better performance demonstrating that the consolidated control algorithm should be required for the engine optimal operation.

  • In this paper, analytical study is performed to reduce residual vibration in seeking mode of optical pick-up. The conditions for acceleration adn deceleration time in trapezoidal velocity profile to reduce residual vibration are derived for undamped vibration system. To verify the validity of conditiosn two example studies are carried out. Numerical and experimental implementations for flexible arm system attached to moving part show that residual vibration is effectively reduced by calculated velocity profile. In addition, simulation study for optical pick-up reveals that by changing natural frequency to resonance frequency the conditions derived assuming undamped system can be applied to obtain velocity profile for minimum residual energy in damped vibration system.

  • This paper presents a self-levelling system for a mass, which undergoes a severe acceleration, with integrated displacement feedback control. After a general description of such a system, theoretical analysis is investigated to design an active control device. That is, the self levelling system is used to reduce the 'static' deflections while isolating the 'dynamic' vibration. A computer simulation model of 45 kg with two air spring mounts is considered to predict the performance of the control system. The results showed the controller can reduce the mass's displacement to the level of 1/3-1/5. Thus the self-levelling system can be applied usefully to reduce the dispalcement of a mass which experiences a high g dynamics.

  • This paper presents an inertia type of piezostack based active mount for unmanned aero vehicle (UAV) camera system. After identifying the stiffness and damping properties of the rubber element and piezostack a mechanical model of the active mount system is established. The governing equation of mount is them derived and expressed in a state space farm. Subsequently, a sliding mode controller which is robust to uncertain parameters is designed in order to reduce the vibration imposed according to the military specification associated with UAV camera mount system operation. Control performances such as acceleration and transmitted force are evaluated through both computer simulation and experimental implementation.

  • In this paper, the gear design program is presented. The profile of gears is created using classical mathematic formulations. In each gear, a kinematic joint is applied and one can define the 20 contact condition between gear pairs. Initial and boundary conditions such as force, torque, velocity, acceleration, etc. can be set. Thus, it is possible to analyze dynamic characteristics of gear pairs such as reaction moment and the variation of angular velocity. In order to find the optimal profile of gear pairs, two optimization methods based on design of experiments are inserted in the program; One is the Taguchi method and the other is the response surface analysis method. To verify the program, the rack & pinion gear is created and analyzed. Simulation results show that the developed program is useful and result data is reliable.
