power transfer breaker is a device used to transfer the load from the electricity power line to the emergency generators. In case of overload, it also functions as a circuit breaker. In this work, a new mechanism for the device is suggested. Among the various design challenges, optimization of the trigger mechanism is identified as of central importance. Optimal design decisions are made with the use of Taguchi method.

Scattering of incident light by the interstellar dust is usually approximated by Henyey-Greenstein scattering phase function. Recently, Draine (2003) proposed a new analytic phase function with two parameters. We describe an algorithm to generate random numbers distributed according to the Draine’s function, and compare two phase functions. It is also derived exact solutions of two parameters for given values ${\langle}cos{\theta}{\rangle}$ and ${\langle}cos^2{\theta}{\rangle}$. It is found that Henyey-Greenstein function with g = ${\langle}cos{\theta}{\rangle}$ provides a good approximation for ${\lambda}\;>\;2000{\AA}$. At shorter wavelengths, more realistic phase function may be needed for radiative transfer models.

According to the paraxial diffraction theory, diffractions of optical systems which have the same wavelength and numerical aperture are always the same, independent of lateral magnification. But the diffractions for optical systems with different magnifications are varied due to the non-paraxial diffraction effect on the imaging of high NA optics. In this study, the non-paraxial diffraction effect is interpreted as a phenomena caused by curved principal planes. Pupil functions and modulation transfer functions of aplanatic conic mirrors are examined as a function of lateral magnification.

In this paper, we propose the discrete model reduction method of bounded real transfer functions. From the discrete bounded real lemma, we obtain the two riccati equations and define the disrete bounded real balancing using solutions of these two riccati equations. And we get the reduced order discrete model from the GSPA of full order model. Especially, when free parameter of GSPA is .+-.1, we show that the reduced order discrete model retains minimality, stability, and bounded real and BR-balancing properties. And we derive the .inf.-norm error bound between full order model and reduced order model. Finally to illustrate the validity of proposed method, we give an example.

A new method for efficient modeling of the Head-Related Transfer Functions(HRTF's) without loss of any directional information is proposed. In this paper, the HRTF's were empirically measured in a real room and modeled as the ARMA models with common AR coefficients and different MA coefficients. To assess the validity of the proposed ARMA model, psychophysical tests show that the proposed ARMA model, in comparison with the conventional MA model, requires a small number of parameters to represent empirical HRTF's and improves the back-to-front confusions in sound-field localization. Thus, significant simplifications in the implementations of sound-field synthesis systems could be obtained by using the proposed ARMA model.

In this paper, active noise barriers for attenuation of road noise are proposed. multi-channel audio systems, DAQ part and high performance DSP H/W were designed. Active noise control firmware programs were implemented for multi-channel off-line/on-line estimation methods for secondary path transfer functions and FIR/IIR filter structure are used main noise control algorithms. To evaluate performance of proposed systems, the experiments were performed in an active noise barrier test bed for various noise cases.

In order to improve the tracking performance of $2{\times}2$ multivariable control systems, a fuzzy control algorithm with feedforward compensator is represented. The method consists in two steps. First, neglecting interconnections. one designs a fuzzy controller to each individual loop. In the second stage, low-order transfer functions of outputs to reference inputs are estimated. We propose a design method of the feed forward compensator based on the transfer functions. An illustrative example are shown.

We have proposed a simple method based on IIR filters for realizing sound image localization. How-ever the nonlinearity of phase characteristics of the IIR filters, which are used for sound image localization, cause decrease of the localization accuracy. In this paper we investigate the influence of phase characteristics on the sound localization. Head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) of a dummy-head are approximated by the IIR filter. We carried out sound image localization experiment with 2-loudspeaker reproduction using the approximated HRTFs. Then the errors which obtained from experiments were compared with the theoretical values which were estimated from the phase shifts of the IIR filters. As a result there was little influence of the nonlinear phase characteristics of the IIR fitters in the localization on the horizontal plane.

Circuit configurations for realizing of biquadratic current transfer functions using current conveyors (CCIIs) are presented. The circuits are composed of three multiple-output CCIIs and four passive elements (two resistors and two grounded capacitors), and when current controlled conveyors (CCIIs) in place of CCIIs are employed, the circuit can be realized using three multiple-output CCIIs and two grounded capacitors. Use of grounded capacitors is suitable for integrated implementation. The cutoff frequency of a realized filter with current gain K can be tuned independently of Q by the value of K.

We approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space setting using an inexact two-step Newton-type method. It turn out that under our new idea of recurrent functions, our semilocal analysis provides tighter error bounds than before, and in many interesting cases, weaker sufficient convergence conditions. Applications including the solution of nonlinear Chandrasekhar-type integral equations appearing in radiative transfer and two point boundary value problems are also provided in this study.
