This paper presents a study on the experimental analysis of the impedance characteristics according to the rotational direction of the transmission beam of a cylindrical sensor array. Besides, this suggests a real time control technique of the transmitter output for the effective maximum power transmission, in order to drive efficiently the rotational transmission beam of the active sonar transmitter. The output characteristics of the transmitter and the real-time impedance variations of the sensor array are analyzed under the overload conditions. They are caused by electric and acoustic boundary conditions when the rotational transmission beam is operated. From these results, a new output control method of the transmitter is proposed to protect the transmitter and its loads. It can maximize the output power without the transmission pause even if the transient phenomena occur. The proposed technique is verified from the experiment.

It is very important to extract the heart region in the medical images. In this paper, we present the automatic heart region extraction in the EBT (electron beam tomography) images. We use contrast thresholding, anatomic knowledge, and mathematical morphology to extract the heart region. Using these results, we applied the active contour models (snakes) to search the exact region. We analyzed the experimental results by comparing the results with the results made by medical experts.

This paper deals with a uniform cantilever Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to follower and transversal force at its free end as a model for a pipe conveying fluid under electromagnetic damper force. The electromagnetic damper is composed of a permanent-magnet DC motor, a ball screw and a nut. The main objective of the current work is to reduce the pipe vibration resulting from the fluid velocity and allow it to transform into electric energy. To pursue this goal, the stability and vibration of the beam model was studied using Ritz and Newmark methods. It was observed that increasing the fluid velocity results in a decrease in the motion of the free end of the pipe. The results of simulation showed that the designed semiactive electromagnetic damper controlled by on-off damping control strategy decreased the vibration amplitude of the pipe about 5.9% and regenerated energy nearly 1.9 (mJ/s). It was also revealed that the designed semi-active electromagnetic damper has better performance and more energy regeneration than the passive electromagnetic damper.

In this paper, we propose a 3D modeling method using Laser Slit Beam and Stereo Camera. We can get depth information of image by analyzing projected Laser Slit Beam on object. 3D modeling is demanded exquisite merge of 3D data. In our approach, we can get the depth image where the reliability is high. Each reconstructed 3D modeling is combined by the sink information which is acquired by SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) Algorithm. We perform experiments using indoor images. The results show that the proposed method works well in indoor environments

본 논문에서는 하나의 급전소자와 두개의 무급전 소자로 구성된 전 후방 지향성을 가진 비행체 탑재 능동 빔 조향 프린트형 야기-우다 안테나를 설계, 제작하였다. 제작된 안테나는 두개의 무급전 소자에 부착된 칩다이오드의 간단한 스위칭 작용(Open, Short)으로 지향성 다이버시티를 구현하였다. 그리고 모노폴 급전 소자와 두개의 무급전 소자와의 거리를 변화시켜 상호 임피던스의 영향이 고려된 최대 전.후방비를 찾았다. 중심주파수 1.81 GHz에서 모노폴 급전소자와 무급전소자간의 간격이 $0.25{\lambda}$일 때, 26.6 dB의 최대 전.후방비(Open-Short 또는 Short-Open)특성이 나타내었다. 이를 통해 후방에 있는 지상 통제소와 미사일의 비행 방향에 관계없이 교신 가능한 수신 레벨을 유지 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Several different production technologies for Low-Temperature Poly-Silicon (LTPS) have been proposed over the last years. However, finally the progress in Excimer-laser-based crystallization has lead to the best cost-to-performance ratio of LTPS manufacturing for use in active-matrix-based displays. In this paper, we report on recent and significant technical advances in light sources, optical beam deliveries and beam irradiation systems targeted at enabling ultra-uniform mura-free LTPS active-matrix backplanes while simultaneously lowering production costs and increasing throughput.

Active control of forced vibration response of a fixed-fixed beam implementing PZT sensor/actuator was conducted. Among various control scheme, PPF control was chosen due to its amenability and natural robustness. For a single frequency excitation, the PPF control provided reasonable controllability with the appropriate damping ratio of the compensator. Without increasing actuator voltage, best controllability can be obtained by the exact tuning between the natural frequency of the structure and the cut-off frequency of the compensator. Even the multi-frequency excitation, the PPF provided good vibration suppression for corresponding mode of interest, even though residual modes should be controlled with independent compensators for each mode.

Active vibration control is presented with simulation and experiment. Dynamic Data System(DDS) method is used for system modeling and this model is combined with an forecasting control technique to derive a control equation. In the experiment, on-line digital computer monitors structural vibration and calculates control input. The control input is sent to an electromagnetic actuator which cancels the structural vibration. Experiment is performed first with a simple beam setup to demonstrate the effetiveness of this method. This method is then applied to a color laser printer to actively modify the structure. The beam experiment showed vibration reduction of over 60% with one-and two-DOF models. In the printer structure experiment, the first mode of 308 Hz was successfully controlled with a one-DOF model.

This paper reports active control of clamped beams using acceleration feedback controllers (AF). The equations of motion of clamped beam under force and moment pairs were derived and the equations of AF controllers were formulated. The effect of the parameters - gain and damping ratio - of the AF controllers on the open loop transfer function was investigated mainly in terms of the system stability. Increasing the gain of the AF controller tuned at a mode, the magnitude of the open loop transfer function is increased at all frequencies. The increase of the damping ratio of the AF controller leads to decrease the magnitude of the open loop transfer function and modifies its phase characteristics to be more stable. Three AF controllers connected in parallel were then proposed. Each AF controller is tuned at the $2^{nd}$, $3^{rd}$ and $4^{th}$ modes, respectively. Their parameters were determined to remain the system to be stable based on the results of the parametric study. A significant reduction in vibration at the 3 modes can be obtained.
