Current article proposes a cheap prototype of an embedded wireless sensor to monitor concrete structures. The prototype can measure temperature and relative humidity concurrently at a controlled through smartphone time interval. It implements a maturity method to estimate in-place concrete strength, which is considered as an alternative for traditional shock impulse method and compression tests used in Kazakhstan. The prototype was tested and adequately performed in the laboratory and field conditions. Tests aimed to study the effect of internal and ambient temperature and relative humidity on the concrete strength gain. According to test results revealed that all parameters influence the strength gain to some extent. For a better understanding of how strongly parameters influence the strength as well as each other, proposed a multicolored cross-correlation matrix technique. The technique is based on the determination coefficients. It is able to show the value of significance of correlation, its positivity or negativity, as well as the degree of inter-influence of parameters. The prototype testing also recognized the inconvenience of Bluetooth control due to weakness of signal and inability to access several prototypes simultaneously. Therefore, further improvement of the prototype presume to include the replacement of Bluetooth by Narrow Band IoT standard.

The concept of homology design has been devised for the application to large telescope structure by S.v.Hoerner. It is defined that the deformation of a structure shall be called homologous, if a given geometrical relation holds, for a given number of structural points, before, during, and after the deformation. Recently, the need of homology design in the structural design has been increase due to the required precision in the structure. Some researchers have utilized the theory on the structural design with finite element method in the late 1980s In the present investigation, a simple method using geometrical equality constraints is suggested to gain homologous deformation. The previous method is improved in that the decomposition of FEM eqation, which is very expensive, is not necessary. The basic formulations of the homology design with the optimization concept are described and several practical examples are solved to verify the usefulness and validity. Especially, a back-up structure of a satellite antenna is designed by the suggested method. The results are compared with those of existing researches.

본 논문은 Haar 웨이브릿 변환과 2D PCA를 이용한 얼굴 인식 방법에 대하여 제안한다. 기존의 PCA는 1 차원 벡터들로 공분산 행렬을 구하는 반면에 2D PCA는 2 차원 영상을 직접적으로 이용하여 공분산 행렬을 구한 후 그것의 고유값에 따른 고유벡터를 구하여 특징 벡터들을 추출하였다. 제안 방법은 얼굴 데이터를 낮은 차원과 강건한 특징을 가지는 얼굴 영상을 얻기 위해 웨이브릿 변환을 이용하여 LL 대역의 영상 데이터로 2D PCA 방법을 적용하여 얼굴을 인식한다. 실험결과는 원래 크기의 얼굴 영상에 2D PCA를 적용한 인식률보다 웨이브릿 변환의 LL 대역의 얼굴 영상에 2D PCA를 적용한 얼굴 인식률이 더 좋음을 보여준다.

The robust generalized H2 filtering problem for a class of discrete time uncertain linear systems satisfying the sum quadratic constraints(SQCs) is considered. The objective of this paper is to develop robust stability condition using SQCs and design a robust generalized Ha filter to take place of the existing robust Kalman filter. The robust generalized H2 filter is designed based on newly derived robust stability condition. The robust generalized Ha filter bounds the energy to peak gain from the energy bounded exogenous disturbances to the estimation errors under the given positive scalar ${\gamma}$. Unlike the robust Lalman filter, it does not require any spectral assumptions about the exogenous disturbances . Therefore the robust generalized H2 filter can be considered as a deterministic formulation of the robust Kalman filter. Moreover, the variance of the estimation error obtained by the proposed filter is lower than that by the existing robust Kalman filter. The robustness of the robust generalized H2 filter against the uncertainty and the exogenous signal is illustrated by a simple numerical example.

Variations in system parameters due to uncertainties may result in system performance deterioration. Uncertainties in modeling of structures are often considered to ensure that control system is robust with respect to response errors. Hence, the uncertain concept plays an important role in vibration control of the engineering structures. The paper discusses the robustness of the stability of vibration control systems with uncertain parameters. The vibration control problem of an uncertain system is approximated by a deterministic one. The uncertain parameters are described by interval variables. The uncertain state matrix is constructed directly using system physical parameters and avoided to use bounds in Euclidean norm. The feedback gain matrix is determined based on the deterministic systems, and then it is applied to the actual uncertain systems. A method to calculate the upper and lower bounds of eigenvalues of the close-loop system with uncertain parameters is presented. The lower bounds of eigenvalues can be used to estimate the robustness of the stability the controlled system with uncertain parameters. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the applications of the present approach.

본 논문에서는 증폭 후 재전송 프로토콜 기반의 다중 안테나 다중 중계 시스템에서 저 복잡도의 전력 할당 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 다중 안테나 전처리 기법이 복소수로 구성 된 꽉 찬 행렬을 전처리 필터로 사용하였다면, 제안 하는 기법은 각 중계 노드에서 안테나 별 전력으로 구성 된 실수 대각 행렬을 전처리 필터로 사용한다고 볼 수 있다. 추가적으로 복소수 꽉 찬행렬로 유효 채널을 대각화 하지 못함에서 발생하는 오차를 감소시키기 위해 가중치 벡터를 각 스트림에 적용시켜 안테나 수와 상관없이 낮은 복잡도로 최적 성능에 근접한 성능을 얻을 수 있다. 마지막으로 모의실험을 통해 제안하는 기법이 상호정보량 측면에서 기존의 기법들보다 우수함을 보인다.

Vector algorithms and the relative importance of the four basic modules (computation of element stiffness matrices, assembly of the global stiffness matrix, solution of the system of linear simultaneous equations, and calculation of stresses and strains) of a finite element computer program for inelastic analysis of reinforced concrete shells are presented. Performance of the vector program is compared with a scalar program. For a cooling tower problem, the speedup factor from the scalar to the vector program is 34 for the element stiffness matrices calculation, 25.3 for the assembly of global stiffness matrix, 27.5 for the equation solver, and 37.8 for stresses, strains and nodal forces computations on a Gray Y-MP. The overall speedup factor is 30.9. When the equation solver alone is vectorized, which is computationally the most intensive part of a finite element program, a speedup factor of only 1.9 is achieved. When the rest of the program is also vectorized, a large additional speedup factor of 15.9 is attained. Therefore, it is very important that all the modules in a nonlinear program are vectorized to gain the full potential of the supercomputers. The vector finite element computer program for inelastic analysis of RC shells with layered elements developed in the present study enabled us to perform mesh convergence studies. The vector program can be used for studying the ultimate behavior of RC shells and used as a design tool.

To improve the performance of sensorless induction motor (IM) drives, an adaptive speed estimation method based on a strong tracking extended Kalman filter with a least-square algorithm (LS-STEKF) for induction motors is proposed in this paper. With this method, a fading factor is introduced into the covariance matrix of the predicted state, which forces the innovation sequence orthogonal to each other and tunes the gain matrix online. In addition, the estimation error is adjusted adaptively and the mutational state is tracked fast. Simultaneously, the fading factor can be continuously self-tuned with the least-square algorithm according to the innovation sequence. The application of the least-square algorithm guarantees that the information in the innovation sequence is extracted as much as possible and as quickly as possible. Therefore, the proposed method improves the model adaptability in terms of actual systems and environmental variations, and reduces the speed estimation error. The correctness and the effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by experimental results.

본 논문에서는 비선형 시스템의 슬라이딩 모드 관측기 설계에 대해서 논의한다. 제어 대상인 비선형 시스템을 모델링 하는데 있어서 Takagi-Sugeno(T-S) 퍼지 모델 기법을 이용하였고, 이때 발생할 수 있는 모델 불확실성과 외란에 대해 그 것의 최대 최소 범위를 안다고 가정하였다. 제안된 시스템의 LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality)를 기반으로 한 슬라이딩 모드 관측기 설계 방법에서는 관측기와 시스템의 차이를 슬라이딩 표면으로 설정한다. 안정한 슬라이딩 표변을 갖는 슬라이딩 관측기의 존재 가능성을 선형 행렬 부등식의 형태로 표현한다. 슬라이딩 모드 관측기 이득은 LMI 존재 조건의 해를 이용하여 구한다. 모의 실험을 통하여 논문에서 제안한 슬라이딩 모드 관측기의 성능을 시험한다.
