A district (Sae-Bong) and 13 district (Sae-Jang Dong) grassland could be divided into four type of Community: Miscanthus-Community, Glyceria-Community, Festuca-Community, and Plantago-Community. Chose 17 or 20 stands from each district A and B and calculated F.I. with the Curtis method, finally vegetational continuum could be recognized while discontinuous boundary line of species distribution could not be recognized. As a rule the distributional curve of species was binominal or bell shaped. It had a distribution pattern peculiar to itself. As to the relationship of cattles' density and vegetation. I found that the tendency of F.I. moving from small to large paralleled that of disturbance-pressure from weak to strong. Found that the more the steepness of environmental factors be controlled by a rule " from large to small", the more F.I. might be controlled by a rule "from small to large" and that pH, soil-moisture-content, loss on ignition was in relation with the steepness. with the steepness.

Sea ice is the main factor affecting the safety of the Arctic engineering. However, traditional numerical methods derived from classical continuum mechanics have difficulties in resolving discontinuous problems like ice damage. In this paper, a non-local, meshfree numerical method called "peridynamics", which is based on integral form, was applied to simulate the interaction between level ice and a cylindrical, vertical, rigid structure at different velocities. Ice in the simulation was freshwater ice and simplified as elastic-brittle material with a linear elastic constitutive model and critical equivalent strain criterion for material failure in state-based peridynamics. The ice forces obtained from peridynamic simulation are in the same order as experimental data. Numerical visualization shows advantages of applying peridynamics on ice damage. To study the repetitive nature of ice force, damage zone lengths of crushing failure were computed and conclude that damage zone lengths are 0.15-0.2 times as ice thickness.

Two kinds of discontinuous control methods i, e., simple on-off(SOF) control and pulsating on-off(POF) control methods are implemented and compared each other for a low cast hydraulic position-control system which utilizes a solenoid-operated directional valve instead of a servovalve. Experimental work was carried out to investigate effects of control parameters and loading conditions on step response characteristics of the system for each control method. The results show that much higher accuracy and much better transient response characteristics can be achieved by POF controller than those by SOF controller. The results may be used as basic data in the selection of control parameters as well as in the design of the hydraulic position-control system.

An induction motor position control system based on the sliding mode control is presented. In the sliding mode control, control function is discontinuous on the hyperplane, which causes harmful effects such a s current harmonics and acoustic noise in the motor drive application. In this study, a low pass filter is introduced between the sliding mode controller output and the motor controller input to reduce these effects. The filter, however, makes the torque response slggish and the system performance may become poor in cost of chattering reduction. To overcome these problems, the bandwidth of the filer is varied according to the error function. It is shown that the proposed sliding mode control with variable-bandwidth filter shows good performance, which is confirmed through experiments.

A loop power system has a nonlinear characteristics. Also it is very hard to analyse through a equation if a discontinuous characteristic of the ULTC is added to a system. However, the problem which is hard to analyse by equations can acquire the useful result with what use the genetic algorithm (GA) which is a multi-point search program. In this paper, we proved through a simulation that the proposed method can reduce an operation frequency of tap changers and improving the quality of voltage of the buses by decreasing the deviation between the actual voltage and the reference voltage through the coordinated control of the ULTC that use GA in the loop power system.

We have introduced two dimensional cluster aggregation model to explain theoretically two phase coexistence phenomena such that adsorption is increased sharply discontinuous in particular pressure on the surface. And then, we have derived adsorption isotherms by applying fundamental statistical thermodynamics and Lagrange multipliers to the our model. By analyzing the our derived adsorption isotherms, we can explain well qualitatively that two phase coexistence on the surface adsorption would be a phenomena that occurs with the strong attractive forces between the adsorbed particles.

This article reports on the conditions required for the growth of crystalline boron films on silicon substrates by hot filament chemical vapor deposition method. The reactive gas was 3% diborane diluted in hydrogen. The films were characterized by optical, electronic, and atomic force microscopies; x-ray diffraction; and energy dispersive, electron energy loss, Raman, x-ray photoelectron, and Auger spectroscopies. The parameters that affect the morphologies of the films have been investigated. It was concluded that faceted crystals are produced at low B₂H₆ flows and working pressures below 200 mT. α-boron is produced between 530 and 600℃. Deposition outside this range produces thin films with a wide variety of morphologies. This result indicates that the films crystallize through a process called "abnormal or discontinuous grain growth." It is assumed that this is due to the anisotropic surfaces of boron allotropes.

This paper proposes the design of micro energy harvesting system by using thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU), which harvests electric energy from the kinetic energy of pedestrian and drives the desired load, and applied it to the self-generating shoes. Also, we designed the buck-boost converter in discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) which functions as a resistor emulator(RE) such that converter's average input current is proportional to input voltage, and it results in transfer of maximum power to buck-boost converter according to control behavior that converter's input resistance is matched with TPU's internal resistance. Therefore, this paper confirms the validity of proposed control scheme and possibility of application for self-generating shoes, from the obtained characteristic of designed micro energy harvesting system by using a TPU and buck-boost converter in DCM.

This paper develops a novel controller called iterative learning sliding mode (ILSM) to control linear and nonlinear fractional-order systems. This control applies a combination structures of continuous and discontinuous controller, conducts the system output to the desired output and achieve better control performance. This controller is designed in the way to be robust against the external disturbance. It also estimates unknown parameters of fractional-order systems. The proposed controller unlike the conventional iterative learning control for fractional systems does not need to apply direct control input to output of the system. It is shown that the controller perform well in partial and complete observable conditions. Simulation results demonstrate very good performance of the iterative learning sliding mode controller for achieving the desired control objective by increasing the number of iterations in the control loop.

This paper describes a new method for control of large-scale system by sliding mode. The concepts of control to large-scale system on the basis of VSS(Variable Structure System) control theory are used to decompose a large control problem into a two-level algorithm such that each subsystem is stabilized with local discontinuous controllers and higher level corrective control is designed to take into account the effect of interaction among the subsystems. In this paper, we show that each subsystem is controlled with repect to local continuous and higher level corrective control. This algorithm can be easily applied to multi-variable control system and obtained a continuous control in comparison With variable structure control systems. Two numerical examples are discussed as illustrations.
