The suboptimal control rule is introduced in structural control implementation as an alternative over the optimal control because the optimal control may require large amount of processing time when applied to complex structural control problems. It is well known that any time delay in structural control implementation will cause un-synchronized application of the control forces, which not only reduce the effectiveness of an active control system, but also cause instability of the control system. The effect of time delay on the displacement and acceleration responses of building structures is studied when the suboptimal control rule is adopted. Two examples are given to show the effectiveness of the suboptimal control rule. It is shown through the examples that the present method is easy in implementation and high in efficiency and it can significantly reduce the time delay in structural control implementation without significant loss of performance.

This paper proposes a gain scheduled control technique using time-delay for the nonlinear system with plant uncertainties and unexpected disturbances. The time delay-based gain scheduled control depends on a direct estimation of a function representing the effect of uncertainties. The information from the estimation is used to cancel the unknown dynamics and the unexpected disturbances simultaneously. The proposed estimation scheme with a finite convergence time is formulated in order to estimate the unborn scheduling variable variation. In other words, the time delay-based gain scheduled control uses the past observation of the system's response and the control input to directly modify the control actions rather than to adjust the controller gains or to identify system parameters. It has a simple structure so as to minimize the computational burden. The benefits of this proposed scheme are demonstrated in the simulation of an electromagnetic suspension system with plant uncertainties and external disturbances, and the proposed controller is compared with the conventional state feedback controller.

This paper presents a theoretical study of a model predictive control (MPC) strategy employed in semi-active control system with magnetorheological (MR) dampers to reduce the responses of seismically excited structures. The MPC scheme is based on a prediction model of the system response to obtain the control actions by minimizing an objective function, which can compensate for the effect of time delay that occurred in real application. As an example, a 5-story building frame equipped with two 20 kN MR dampers is presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed MPC scheme for addressing time delay and reducing the structural responses under different earthquakes, in which the predictive length l = 5 and the delayed time step d = 10, 20, 40, 60, 100 are considered. Comparison with passive-off, passive-on, and linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control strategy indicates that MPC scheme exhibits good control performance similar to the LQG control strategy, both have better control effectiveness than two passive control methods for most cases, and the MPC scheme used in semi-active control system show more effectiveness and robustness for addressing time delay and protecting structures during earthquakes.

본 논문에서는 새로운 온라인 데드타임 전향보상기법을 제안한다. 데드타임 효과(dead-time effect)로 인한 출력 전압 오차를 외란전압으로 간주하고 이를 추정하여 전향보상한다. 외란전압의 크기를 시간지연제어기법을 이용하여 추정하고, 추정된 값과 측정된 전류와 위치 정보로써 외란전압을 계산한다. 데드타임 효과를 보상하기 위해 계산된 외란전압은 전압지령에 전향된다. 제안된 방법은 DSP TMS320C31을 사용하여 디지털방식으로 영구자석 동기 전동기 구동 시스템에 적용이 된다. 제안된 방법의 효용성을 검증하기 위해 이 시스템에서 실험을 수행하였고 그 결과는 제안된 방법의 효과를 잘 보여주고 있다.

본 연구는 서비스지연이 대기불안에 미치는 영향력 및 대기불안에 대한 지연과 개인특성변수(성별, 쾌락성)의 조절효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 보면, 먼저 대기 중 지연시간이 증가하게 되면 대기불안 또한 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 지연시간과 대기불안의 관계에 있어 성별의 조절효과는 존재하는 것으로 나타난 반면 서비스에 대한 쾌락성 지각수준에 따른 조절효과는 존재하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 결론에서는 지연에 대한 서비스기업에 대한 시사점과 연구의 한계점 및 향후 과제를 제시하였다.

This paper is concerned with a delay-dependent sliding mode scheme for the robust stabilization of input-delay systems with bounded unknown uncertainties. A sliding surface based ona predictor is proposed to minimize the effect of the input delay. Then, a robust control law is derived to ensure the existence of a sliding mode on the surface. In input-delay systems, uncertainties given during te delayed time are not directly controlled by the switching control because of causality prolem of them. They can influence the stability of the system in the sliding mode. Hence, a delay-dependent stability analysis for reduced order dynamics is employed to estimate maximum delay bound such that the system is globally asymptotically stable in the sliding mode. A numerical example is given to illustrate the design procedure.

The adverse effect of harmful plankton on the marine ecosystem is a topic of deep concern. To investigate the role of such phytoplankton, a mathematical model containing distinct dynamical equations for toxic and non-toxic phytoplankton is analyzed. Stability analysis of the resulting three equation model is carried out. A continuous time variation in toxin liberation process is incorporated into the model and a stability analysis of the resulting delay model is performed. The distributed delay model is then extended to include the spatial distribution of plankton and the delay-diffusion model is analyzed with spatial and spatiotemporal kernels. Conditions for diffusion-driven instability in both the cases are derived and compared to explore the significance of these kernels. Numerical studies are performed to justify analytical findings.

A new analytic framework based on a linear algebra approach is proposed for examining the performance of a direct sequence spread spectrum (DS/SS) slotted ALOHA wireless communication network systems with delay capture. The discrete-time Markov chain model has been introduced to account for the effect of randomized time of arrival (TOA) at the central receiver and determine the evolution of the finite population network performance in a single-hop environment. The proposed linear algebra approach applied to the given Markov problem requires only computing the eigenvector ${\prod}$ of the state transition matrix and then normalizing it to have the sum of its entries equal to 1. MATLAB computation results show that systems employing discrete TOA randomization and delay capture significantly improves throughput-delay performance and the employed analysis approach is quite easily and staightforwardly applicable to the current analysis problem.

The object of this experimental study is to investigate the effect on frost prevention and delay by the method of alternating the function of outdoor coil rows under the frost conditions ($2^{\circ}C/1^{\circ}C$). The heat pump system with the new method can make frost delay time longer and eliminate frost effectively. It is withstand over 280 minutes without a conventional defrosting method. Maximum COP in case of adopting new method is 13% higher than that in case of reverse cycle defrosting method. Also in case of moving air injection duct faster, the frost delay time is lengthened and its COP is enhanced more.

본 연구에서는 CA(Cellular Automata)규칙을 이용하여, 돌발상황의 영향을 분석할 수 있는 시뮬레이션 모형을 구축하고, 실시간 자료인 VDS 자료와 현장측정 자료를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 모형을 검증하였다. 이렇게 구축된 시뮬레이션 모형을 이용하여, 고속도로상에서 돌발상황이 발생하였을 때의 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과는 5% 신뢰구간에서 통계적으로 유의함으로 나타났다. 돌발상황의 영향을 분석하기 위해서 돌발상황의 지속시간과 교통량의 변화에 따른 돌발상황의 유형을 분류하였고, 각각의 돌발상황 유형에 따른 영향을 분석하였다. 이때 돌발상황에 의한 영향은 구간 통행시간의 변화와 혼잡 지체시간의 변화를 통해서 분석하였다. 결과에 따르면, 교통량이 적을 때는 교통류가 돌발상황에 의해서 거의 영향을 받지 않았고, 교통량이 증가함에 따라, 돌발상황에 의한 영향이 점점 더 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 교통량이 2000대/시를 넘어설 때는 돌발상황이 발생하지 않더라도, 교통량의 증가에 따라 혼잡지체가 자연스럽게 발생하는 것으로 나타났고, 돌발상황이 45분 동안 계속될 경우에는 약 425∼722대·시의 지체가 발생하였다.
