We present a study of vertical dynamics control of an electrostatically levitated gyro-accelerometer considering the wobbling effect and propose a tilt stabilization method with newly introduced control electrodes. Typically, a rotor in a vacuum rotates at high velocity, which may create a drift rate and lead to displacement instability due to the tilt angle of the rotor. To analyze this, first we set up a vertical dynamic equation and determined simulation results regarding displacement control. After deriving an equation for drift dynamics, we analyzed the drift rate of the rotor and the wobbling effect for displacement control quantitatively. Then, we designed new sub-electrodes for moment control that will decrease the drift amplitude of wobbling dynamics. Finally, a simulation study demonstrated that the vertical displacement control with the wobbling compensation electrodes mitigated the rotor's drift rate, showing the effectiveness of the newly proposed control electrodes.

The drift and inter-story drift control method for steel structures subjected to seismic forces is formulated into a structural optimization problem in this paper. The formulated optimization problem with constraints on drift, inter-story drifts, and member strengthes are transformed into an unconstrained optimization problem. For the solution of the tranformed optimization problem an searching algorithm based on the gradient projection method utilizing gradient information on eigenvalues and eigenvectors are developed and presented in detail. The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by application to drift control of a verifying example.

There are many kinds of drift source in angular velocity feedback stabilization system. We discussed and analyzed the source of drift, and suggest the drift compensation method for null drift system. In this paper, the performance of drift compensators is tested and proved by real 2 axis mirror stabilization system and computer simulation.

Drift design is one of the core techniques in the structural design of high-rise buildings and resizing technique is regarded as a practical drift design method for high-rise buildings. In the resizing technique, the structural weight is re-distributed to minimize the target displacement without a change in structural weights. However, the structural weight determined from resizing algorithm is bound to the structural weight based on the preliminary design. Therefore, in this paper, a drift design method that can control the weight of the structure without causing drift control performance to deteriorate is proposed by incorporating the weight control factor in the formulation of resizing algorithm. The proposed drift design method is applied to the drift design of two frame-shear wall systems. The proposed drift design method, in this study, makes it possible to control both the drift and weight of a high-rise building.

In this research, an effective technique was examined to improve the drift running performance. Concretely, the driver model by which the counter steer was done was assumed to the model by which the vehicle body slip angle (and the vehicle body slip angle velocity) was feed back. Next, the effectiveness of the system which added the assist steer angle corresponding to the steering wheel angle velocity to a front wheel steer angle was clarified as a drift running performance improvement technique of the vehicle. As a result, because the phase advances when the differentiation steer assistance is added, it has been understood to be able to cover the delay of the counter steer when the drift running. Therefore, it has been understood that the drift control does considerably easily. Moreover, it has been understood that the differentiation steer assistance acts effectively at the drift cornering by which the drift angle is maintained in cornering and the severe lane change with a drift at a situation. That is, it was understood to be able to settle to the drift angle of the aim quickly at the time of the drift cornering because the delay of the control steer angle of the counter steer was improved. Moreover, it was understood for the transient overshoot of the vehicle tracks to be able to decrease, and to return to the state of stability quickly at the severe lane change.

This paper addresses modeling of the gyro drift by using the structure function approach which has been originally developed for characterization of the oscillator phase noise. It is shown that by using this approach, an arbitrary order of random and deterministic gyro drift processes can be characterized and easily measured. The relationship between the drift power spectral density and structure function is clarified. It is also shown that this approach simplifies analysis of the effect of drift on the control system performance.

In this paper, an automation model for drift design of high-rise buildings using resizing algorithms is proposed. Drift, in the model, includes the maximum lateral displacement at the top and inter-story drifts of a high-rise building subjected to both wind and seismic load. Resizing algorithms for high-rise buildings in various systems and material developed in previous researches are used as a drift control module. As an input to drift control algorithms, member forces for calculation of member displacement participation factors are obtained from commonly-used commercial softwares. The automation model is composed of 4 modules: initial modeling, drift control, stress check, and final verification modules. Each module in the model is described in detail in this paper.

This paper alined at the development of a lateral drift control method that is able to quantitatively control the lateral drift of global node. For this, we applied an efficient partial reanalysis algorithm. By using this algorithm, we could recalculate the displacement and member force of the specific node without reanalyzing the entire structure when member stiffness changes partially. The theoretical concepts of the algorithm are so simple that it is not necessary to solve the complicate differential equation or to repeat the analysis of entire structure. The proposed method calculates the drift contribution of each member for the global displacement according to the variation of section sizes by using the algorithm. Then by changing the member sizes as the order of drift contribution, we could control the lateral drift of global node with a minimum quantity of materials. 20 story braced frame structure system is presented to illustrate the usefulness of proposed method. It is shown that the proposed method is very effective in lateral drift control and the results obtained by proposed method are consistent with those of commercial analysis program.

This paper considers the problem of monitoring the mean of a normally distributed process variable when the objective is to effectively detect both a sustained shift and a linear drift. The design and application of a generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) chart for simultaneously monitoring a sustained shift and a linear drift are evaluated. The GLR chart has the advantage that when we design this chart, we do not need to specify the size of the parameter change. The performance of the GLR chart is compared with that of other control charts, such as the standard cumulative sum (CUSUM) charts and the cumulative score (CUSCORE) charts. And we compare the proposed GLR chart with the GLR charts designed for monitoring only a sustained shift and for monitoring only a linear drift. Finally, we also compare the proposed GLR chart with the chart combinations. We show that the proposed GLR chart has better overall performance for a wide range of shift sizes and drift rates relative to other control charts, when a special cause produces a sustained shift and/or a linear drift in the process mean.
