A new discrete time gain-scheduled control design is proposed to improve disturbance attenuation for systems with bounded control input under known disturbance maximum norm. The state feedback gains are scheduled according to the proximity of the state of the plant to the origin. The controllers are derived in the framework of linear matrix inequality(LMI) optimization. This procedure yields a linear time varying control structure that allows higher gain and hence higher performance controllers as the state moves closer to the origin. The main results give sufficient conditions for the satisfaction of a parameter-dependent performance measure, without violating the bounded control input condition under the given disturbance maximum norm.

본 논문에서는 크게 두 가지 사항에 대해서 제안하고자 한다. 첫 번째는 논리합성을 위한 제약조건 방법에 대한 것이고, 두 번째는 효율적인 논리합성방법에 대한 것이다. 논리 합성은 주어진 제약조건(constraint)을 최대한 만족 시키면서 논리 사상과 최적화 등을 통하여 RTL(register transfer level) 코드로부터 게이트-수준의 네트리스트를 얻는 과정이다. 논리합성의 결과는 주어진 제약조건과 합성 방법에 매우 종속적이다. 이들에 의해서 설계의 면적 및 타이밍이 크게 변화하므로 우리는 제약조건과 합성방법을 철저하게 고려하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 논리합성을 하는 과정에서 실제로 고려해야하는 사항들에 대해서 경험적이고 실험적인 결과를 바탕으로 혼합방식의 논리합성 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법을 이용하여 약 65만 게이트의 하드웨어 자원량을 사용하는 회로에 적용시켜본 결과로 상향식 방법에 비해서 합성 시간이 약 47% 감소하였고, 하향식 방법에 비해서 타이밍 특성이 우수하였다.

An approximate function approach has been developed using the subsystem synthesis method for real-time multibody vehicle dynamics models. In this approach, instead of solving loop closure constraint equations of the suspension linkage, approximate functions are used. The approximate function represents the functional relationship between dependent coordinates and independent coordinates of the suspension subsystem. This kinematic relationship is also included in the suspension subsystem equations of motion. Different order of polynomial functions are tried to find out the best candidate functions. The proposed method is also compared with the conventional subsystem synthesis method to verify its efficiency and accuracy.

본 연구에서는 구속조건을 가진 기계계의 동적 평형위치를 다물체 동역학 해석방법을 이용하여 계산하였다. 다물체계에서 얻어지는 시간 구속조건을 가진 구속조건식과 동역학식으로부터 독립좌표계로 이루어진 동적평형식을 유도하였다. 동적 평형식은 구속조건식과 함께 비선형 대수방정식의 형태로서 Newton-Raphson 방법을 이용하여 수치해를 구하였다. 제안된 동적 평형 계산 방법을 조속기에 적용하여 동적 평형위치를 구하였다. 해석결과는 상용 프로그램의 동역학해석을 통한 평형위치의 결과와 비교하여 타당성을 검증하였다. 조속기의 회전 각속도에 대한 평형위치를 계산하고 설계 파라미터에 대한 평형위치의 영향을 분석하였다.

Many mechanical, electrical and electronic products have more than one performance characteristics (PCs). For example the performance degradation of rubidium discharge lamps can be characterized by the rubidium consumption or the decreasing intensity the lamp. The product may degrade due to all the PCs which may be independent or dependent. This paper deals with the design of optimal bivariate step-stress partially accelerated degradation test (PADT) with degradation paths modelled by gamma process. The dependency between PCs has been modelled through Frank copula function. In partial step-stress loading, the unit is tested at usual stress for some time, and then the stress is accelerated. This helps in preventing over-stressing of the test specimens. Failure occurs when the performance characteristic crosses the critical value the first time. Under the constraint of total experimental cost, the optimal test duration and the optimal number of inspections at each intermediate stress level are obtained using variance optimality criterion.

Due to growing demand on wireless data traffic, a large number of different types of base stations (BSs) have been installed. However, space-time dependent wireless data traffic densities can result in a significant number of idle BSs, which implies the waste of power resources. To deal with this problem, we propose an active state control algorithm based on semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) for a heterogeneous network. A MDP in discrete time domain is formulated from continuous domain with some approximation. Suboptimal on-line learning algorithm with a random policy is proposed to solve the problem. We explicitly include coverage constraint so that active cells can provide the same signal to noise ratio (SNR) coverage with a targeted outage rate. Simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm properly controls the active state depending on traffic densities without increasing the number of handovers excessively while providing average user perceived rate (UPR) in a more power efficient way than a conventional algorithm.

This paper presents a maximum velocity trajectory planning algorithm for differential mobile robots with wheel velocity constraint to cope with physical limits in the joint space for two-wheeled mobile robots (TMR). In previous research, the convolution operator was able to generate a central velocity that deals with the physical constraints of a mobile robot while considering the heading angles along a smooth curve in terms of time-dependent parameter. However, the velocity could not track the predefined path. An algorithm is proposed to compensate an error that occurs between the actual and driven distance by the velocity of the center of a TMR within a sampling time. The velocity commands in Cartesian space are also converted to actuator commands to drive two wheels. In the case that the actuator commands exceed the maximum velocity the trajectory is redeveloped with the compensated center velocity. The new center velocity is obtained according to the curvature of the path to provide a maximum allowable velocity meaning a time-optimal trajectory. The effectiveness of the algorithm is shown through numerical examples.

In the existing literature, most of the purchasing models were developed only for retailers problem ignoring the constraint of storage capacity of retailers shop/showroom. In this paper, we have developed a deterministic model of wholesaler-retailers' problem of single product. The storage capacity of wholesaler's warehouse/showroom and retailers' showroom/shop are assumed to be finite. The items are transported from wholesaler's warehouse to retailers' Own Warehouse (OW) in a lot. The customer's demand is assumed to be displayed inventory level dependent. Demands are met from OW and that spaces of OW will immediately be filled by shifting the same amount from the Rented Warehouse (RW) till the RW is empty. The time duration between selling from OW and filling up its space by new ones from RW is negligible. According to relative size of the retailers' existing (own) warehouse capacity and the demand factors, different scenarios are identified. Our objectives are to optimize the cost functions of wholesaler and two retailers separately. To solve this problem, a real coded Genetic Algorithm (GA) with roulette wheel selection/reproduction, whole arithmetic crossover and non-uniform mutation is developed. Finally a numerical example is presented to illustrate the results for different scenarios. To compare the results of GA, Generalised Reduced Gradient Method has been used for the problem. Also, a sensitivity analysis has been performed to study the variations of the optimal average cost with respect to the different parameters.

The nonlinear analytic function expansion nodal (AFEN) method is applied to the solution of the time-dependent neutron diffusion equation. Since the AFEN method requires both the particular solution and the homogeneous solution to the transient fixed source problem, the derivation solution method is focused on finding the particular solution efficiently. To avoid complicated particular solutions, the source distribution is approximated by quadratic polynomials and the transient source is constructed such that the error due to the quadratic approximation is minimized. In addition, this paper presents a new two-node solution scheme that is derived by imposing the constraint of current continuity at the interface corner points. The method is verified through a series of applications to the NEACRP PWR rod ejection benchmark problem.

The short piers of bridge which is constructed by cantilever method may not be flexible enough to accommodate longitudinal movement of box girders. The constraint effects of longitudinal movement of box girders can introduce large stresses, and consequently large moments into short piers. This study is aimed at proposing a method to reduce moment of short piers in bridge constructed by cantilever method. Numerical analyses are carried out depending on the parameters such as control force and height of piers. Numerical results of the study represent that long-term moment of piers can be controlled effectively by employing the proposed method.
