The differential equations governing free, in-plane vibrations of non-circular arches with non-uniform cross-section, including the effects of rotatory inertia, shear deformation and axial deformation, are derived and solved numerically to obtain frequencies. The lowest four natural frequencies are calculated for the prime parabolic arches with hinged-hinged, hinged-clamped, and clamped-clamped end constraints. Three general taper types for rectangular section are considered. A wide range of arch rise to span length ratios, slenderness ratios, and section ratios are considered. The agreement with results determined by means of a finite element method is good from an engineering viewpoint.

In this study, structural optimum design was applied to the girder of magnet over head crane. The optimization was carried out using ANSYS Code for the deadweight of girder, especially focused on the thickness of its upper, lower, side and reinforced plates. The weight could be reduced up to around 15 % with constraints of its deformation, stress, natural frequency and buckling strength. The structural safety was also verified by the buckling analysis of its panel structure. It might be thought to be very useful to design the conventional structures for the weight save through the structural optimization.

AVR parameter tuning for voltage control of generators has generally been done with the off-line open-circuit model of the synchronous generator. When the generator is connected on-line and operating with load the AVR operates in an entirely different environment from the open-circuit conditions. This paper describes a new method for AVR parameter tuning for on line conditions using SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) meshed with frequency response characteristics of linearized on-line system model. As the proposed method uses the un - line system model the tuned parameter sets show more optimal behavior in the on-line operating conditions. furthermore, as this method considers the performance indices that are needed for stable operation as constraints, AVR parameter sets that are tuned by this method could guarantee the stable performance, too.

It has been a basic model for the present electric power industry that more than two generators compete, and thereby the market clearing price and the generation schedules are determined through the bid process. In order for this paradigm to be applicable to real electric power systems and markets, it is necessary to reflect many physical and economic constraints related to frequency and transmission in the dispatching schedule. The paper presents an approach to deriving a Nash bargaining solution in a competitive electricity market where multiple generators are playing with the system operator who mitigates the transmission congestion to minimize the total transaction cost. In this study, we take the effect of the line flows and the role of system operator into the Game. Finally, a case study has been demonstrated to verify the proposed cooperative game.

This paper deals with the free vibration analysis of horizontally circular mea beams with variable cross sectional width on elastic foundations. Taking into account the effects of rotatory inertia and shear deformation differential equations governing the free vibrations of such beams are derived, in which the Whlkler foundation model is considered as the elastic foundation. The variable width of beam is chosen as the linear equation. The differential equations are solved numerically to calculate natural frequencies. In numerical examples, the curved beam with the hinged-hinged, hinged-clamped, clamped-hinged and damped-clamped end constraints are considered The parametric studies are conducted and the lowest four frequency parameters are reported in figures as the non-dimensional forms.

We propose a two-stage resource allocation algorithm for the high link utilization of an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing passive optical network (OFDM-PON). An OFDM-PON is assumed to use a synchronous frame structure in supporting service differentiation. In distributing resources, the proposed algorithm first allocates a time window for each optical network unit (ONU), and then it arranges a subchannel, which is a group of subcarriers. This algorithm needs to satisfy two constraints. First, computations for the resource allocation should be done using a frame unit. Second, an ONU has to use a single subchannel to send upstream data for multiple services within a frame duration. We show through a computer simulation that the proposed algorithm improves the link utilization.

In this study, a procedure to design an optimal LCVA that maximizes the equivalent damping ratio added to the primary structure subjected to along-wind excitation is proposed. That design procedure does not only consider the natural frequency and damping ratio of the LCVA, but also the proportion of the U-shaped liquid, which is closely related to the participation ratio of the liquid mass in inertial force. In addition, constraints to ensure the U-shape of the liquid are considered in the design process, so that suboptimal solutions that violate the optimal tuning law partly are adopted as a candidate of the optimal LCVA. The proposed design procedure of the LCVA is applied to the control of the 76-story benchmark building, and the optimal proportions of the liquid shape under various design conditions are compared.

RFID technique which is recognizable without the physical contact between the reader and the tag is the core to archive ubiquitous environment, and has been attracting a lot of interest from both industry and academic institutes. Especially, RFID based logistic service management can get the low priced cost and the advancement of the appointed date of delivery. In this paper, we first analyze security requirements of international logistics process, and then propose a RBAC based security model and represent access control constraints using UML.

In this paper, we consider the mixed $L_1/H_{\infty}$ problems of finding internally stabilizing controllers which minimize the peak-to-peak gain of a certain closed loop transfer function with $H_{\infty}$-norm constraint on other closed loop transfer function(or vise versa). This problem is a useful framework for designing a controller with the norm constraints upon time and frequency domain. We formulate the mixed $L_1/H_{\infty}$ problem as LMI problems by using the reachable set. This paper offers the sufficient condition for the existence of suboptimal state feedback controller, and shows that suboptimal solution can be obtained by solving a finite-dimensional convex optimization and a line search.

This paper considers the vibration Problem of vehicle driveline which consists of two propeller shafts and the center bearing. The excessive vibration occurs at the center bearing when the vehicle starts to run. Using the kinematic constraints at the universal joint between two propeller shafts, we developed an one d.o.f model which describes the radial motion of the center bearing. We found out that the vibration occurs at the specific vehicle speed corresponding to the natural frequency of the model. Comparing the simulation results with test results we also show that the vibration at low vehicle speed is caused primarily by the feint angle and secondarily by the mis-aligned yoke flange rather than by the unbalance.
