Complex modal testing is employed for the in-situ parameter identification of a four-axis active magnetic bearing system while the system is in operation. In the test, magnetic bearings are used as exciters as well as actuators for feedback control. The experimental results show that the directional frequency response function, which is properly defined in the complex domain, is a powerful tool for identification of bearing as well as modal parameters. It is also shown that the position and current stiffnesses can be accurately estimated using the relations between the measured forces, displacements, and currents.

This paper is concerned with the dynamic modeling and controller design for a cylindrical shell equipped with MFC actuators. The dynamic model was derived by using Rayleigh-Ritz method based on Donnel-Mushtari shell theory. The actuator and sensors for the MFC actuator equations were derived based on pin-force model. The boundary conditions at both ends were assumed to be shear diaphragm. After calculating the natural vibration characteristics, the positive position feedback controller was designed to cope with the first two modes. To this end, the equations of motion were reduced to modal equations of motion by considering the modes of interest. The theoretical results show that vibrations can be successfully suppressed.

This paper presents the visualization method of the KAIST interactive bicycle simulator. The simulator consists of two bicycles of 6 DOF and 4 DOF platforms, force feedback handlebars and pedal resistance systems to generate motion feelings; a real-time visual simulator, a HMD and a beam projection system; and a 3D sound system. The system has an integrating control network with the server-client network structure for multiple simulators. The visual simulator generates dynamic images in real-time while communicating with other modules of the simulator. The operator of the simulator can have realistic visual experience of riding on a velodrome or through the KAIST campus, while being able to watch the other bicycle with an avatar.

진동을 감소시키는 방법에는 최적의 설계 변수를 선정하는 수동 제어 방법과 피드백 루프(Feedback loop)를 이용하는 능동제어 방법 두 가지가 있다. 이 중 능동제어에 대한 연구가 최근에 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 능동제어를 위한 진동시스템의 동적해석과 시스템의 모델링에 대해 연구하고자 한다. 진동체로는 외팔보를 선택하였으며 진동체의 진동을 제어하는 장치로는 제어코일과 베이스코일로 구성된 Push-Pull 타입의 전자석 제어회로를 직접 제작하였고 시스템을 모델링하여 전달함수를 구하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 특정한 형태의 제약 즉, 매니퓰레이터의 자유도와 주어진 제약조건의 차원의 차이가 1이며, 매니퓰레이터의 동역학을 작업영역에서의 축차모델로 나타내었을 때, 변환행렬이 단위행렬로 나타나는 제약을 가지는 불확실한 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 위치/힘 추종을 위한 적응제어기를 제안한다. 제안된 제어기는 비선형 좌표변환을 통하여 얻어진 로봇의 축차모델(reduced-order model)을 이용하여 위치제어와 힘제어의 문제를 분리한다. 특히, 비선형 동적 필터를 이용하여 위치의 측정만을 필요로 하며, 적응제어 기법을 통하여 전역 점근적인 안정성을 보장한다.

In this paper, we investigate the issues on the design and implementation of tele-operation system based on the haptic interface. Here, the 3-DOF haptic device and the X-Y-Z stage are employed as master controller and slave system respectively. For this master-slave system, the force feedback algorithm, the modeling of virtual environments and the control method of X-Y-Z stage are presented. In this paper, internet network is used for data communication between master and slave.

In this paper, the stability of a flexible missle, idealized as a free-free beam, is evaluated by using the finite element method. For the study, heavy machinery part is modeled as a concentrated mass and the thrust, which is controlled by a feedback sensor located at a predetermined position, is considered as a constant follower force. The aerodynamic forces, the structural damping, the cross sectional variation servo lag effect are neglected in this study. With unconstrained variational principle, the finite element method is applied to the nondimensionalized beam eqution. The matrix eigenvalue equation is obtained and the eigenvalues are calculated by a computer for the stability analysis. The stability is evaluated by the inspection of the eigenvalues are calculated by a computer for the stabilith analysis. The stabilith is evaluated by the inspection of the eigenvalues of the problem. For the study, the behaviors of the eigenvalues at various thrusts and the effects of the magnitudes and positions of the concentrated mass and directional control constant are analyzed.

This paper deals with the social system from the point of system thinking consisting the fundamental construct of system dynamics. The Bertalanffy's general system theory, having been criticized because of its ambiguity, and the complex science theory, emerging system theory, are integrated by using the system thinking which is characterized with three concepts, 'feedback thinking', 'dynamic thinking', 'operational thinking'. In the integration, system thinking suggests the dynamic pattern of the social system have not only an equilibrium status but also complex status. The science of complexity gives an implication to system dynamics the important of the uncertainty and complexity if we interpret the social system as an open system. To show more concrete description, I simulate the cooperation model based on the iterated prisoner dilemma. The simulation results show the diverse patterns of cooperation and betrayal. Especially the sensitivity of initial payoff will cause the chaotic strategic landscapes as the game gose on. These results mean that we should not give the hasty prescription to control social system artificially. Because social system retains the self-organizing force in itself.

Active movement is able to actively contract his muscles and move a segment either with or without assistance. This movement maintain physiologic elasticity and contractility of the participating muscles, provide sensory feedback from the contracting muscles and stimulus for bone integrity as well as increase circulation and prevent thrombus formation, in addition to develop coordination and moor skills for functional activities. Passive movement is the motion to the external force; gravity, machine, another individuals. Active movement is more activated rather than passived on the central nervous system. Therefore, we think that active movement is more effected facilitating through specific inhibitory mobilization of muscle.

With the development of CUP speed and graphic technology, real-time simulation of deformable object is embossed as an essential issue in engineering field. Recently, it has been applied to the surgical training and game animation with haptic force feedback. But real time simulation of deformable objects is not easy because of the conflicting demands of speed and low latency and physical accuracy. In this study, we present the implementation of boundary element method(BEM) which is combined with the nonuniform B-spline surface. It is working together with the real-time simulation technique and the geometry data is altered by handling control points without preprocessing routine.
