This study investigated the behavior of a non-isothermal $CO_2$ bubble formed through a leak process from a high-pressure source in a deep sea. Isenthalpic interpretation was employed to predict the state of the bubble just after the leak. Three modes of mass loss from the rising bubble were demonstrated: dissolution induced by mass transfer, condensation by heat transfer and phase separation by pressure decrease. A graphical interpretation of the last mode was provided in the pressure-enthalpy diagram. A threshold pressure (17.12 bar) was identified below which the last mode was no longer present. The second mode was as effective as the first for a bubble formed in deep water, leading to faster mass loss. To the contrary, only the first mode was active for a bubble formed in a shallow region. The third mode was insignificant for all cases.

This paper presents a pitch angle controller of a grid-connected wind turbine system for extracting maximum power from wind and implements a modeling and simulation of the wind turbine system on MATLAB/Simulink. It discusses the maximum power control algorithm for the wind turbine and presents, in a graphical form, the relationship of wind turbine output, rotor speed, and power coefficient with wind speed when the wind turbine is operated under the maximum power control algorithm. The objective of pitch angle control is to extract maximum power from wind and is achieved by regulating the blade pitch angle during above-rated wind speeds in order to bypass excessive energy in the wind. Case studies demonstrate that the pitch angle control is carried out to achieve maximum power extraction during above-rated wind speeds and effectiveness of the proposed controller would be satisfactory.

New circuit D-Q transformation concept is introduced to analyze AC converters such as inverters, rectifiers and cyclo-converters with ease. The equivalent linear time invariant circuit is obtained by substituting switches with equivalent turn-ratio variable transformers and changing balanced AC reactors into equivalent DC reactors combined by gyrators. This circuit enables us to utilize the powerful linear system analysis techniques such as Laplace transform otherwise which could not be applied to the time varying switching systems. Direct substitution of switches of DC converters with transformers is shown as a preliminary. Then the modeling procedure is shown for a controlled rectifier-inverter circuit. Finally an analysis example is proposed for a buck-boost inverter and the result is compared with the conventional approach. This approach is applicable to all AC converter families to determine the AC transfer functions and the DC operating points. It is identified that the switching systems are equivalent to the RLC filter circuits with transformers and gyrators.

This paper presents a modeling and simulation of a fuzzy controller for maximum power extraction of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system with a link of a rectifier and an inverter. It discusses the maximum power control algorithm for a wind turbine and proposes, in a graphical form, the relationships of wind turbine output, rotor speed, power coefficient, tip-speed ratio with wind speed when the wind turbine is operated under the maximum power control. The control objective is to always extract maximum power from wind and transfer the power to the utility by controlling both the pitch angle of the wind turbine blades and the inverter firing angle. Pitch control method is mechanically complicated, but the control performance is better than that of the stall regulation method. The simulation results performed on MATLAB will show the variation of generator's rotor angle and rotor speed, pitch angle, and generator output.

This study describes a new graphical method for assessing and characterizing effect modification by a matching covariate in matched case-control studies. This method to understand effect modification is based on a semiparametric model using a varying coefficient model. The method allows for nonparametric relationships between effect modification and other covariates, or can be useful in suggesting parametric models. This method can be applied to examining effect modification by any ordered categorical or continuous covariates for which cases have been matched with controls. The method applies to effect modification when causality might be reasonably assumed. An example from veterinary medicine is used to demonstrate our approach. The simulation results show that this method, when based on linear, quadratic and nonparametric effect modification, can be more powerful than both a parametric multiplicative model fit and a fully nonparametric generalized additive model fit.

For many practical and industrial optimization problems where some or all of the system components are stochastic, the objective functions cannot be represented analytically. Therefore, modeling by computer simulation is one of the most effective means of studying such complex systems. In this paper, with discussion of simulation optimization techniques, a case study in machining process for application of simulation optimization is presented. Most of optimization techniques can be classified as single-or multiple-response techniques. The optimization of single-response category, these strategies are gradient based search methods, stochastic approximate method, response surface method, and heuristic search methods. In the multiple-response category, there are basically five distinct strategies for treating the responses and finding the optimum solution. These strategies are graphical method, direct search method, constrained optimization, unconstrained optimization, and goal programming methods. The choice of the procedure to employ in simulation optimization depends on the analyst and the problem to be solved.

An inverted pendulum mounted on a cart and actuated by a hydraulic servo cylinder was designed and built. Position information of the cart was acquired via a potentiometer and a angle of the pendulum was sensed by an incremental encoder. These were collected by a DAQ board and processed through the Real-Time Windows Target software(included in simulink). A simulink graphical program was implemented as a controller of the hydraulic system that governed the motion of the cart in order to maintain vertical balance of the inverted pendulum. The purpose of this study is to develop an electro-hydraulic inverted pendulum system for a modeling and controling the intrinsic unstable system. The simulation results were compared with the experimental and verified.

It is important to express the specific growth rate of a fermentation reaction as a function of substrate and product concentration in developing bioprocess automation techniques such as modeling of the reactor and controlling it via an advanced control scheme. Typical methods of identification utilize graphical representation of the rate constant data or nonlinear regression with an appropriate noise filter. But the former method fails when the data are erroneous and the latter are mathematically complicated to apply in the field. Neural network is another candidate for the identification from time series data since it is insensitive to the random data error and easy to implement. In this study, we will develop a neural network method of specific growth rate estimation from the time series state variable data and test the performance.

In this paper, a new software package for modeling and simulating discrete-event dynamic systems is developed. The new software is a general-purpose, graphical tool based on timed Petri-nets and is developed using Visual Basic and Visual C++ for the window environment. It allows the user to graphically build a Petri-net model and enter input data for executing the Petri-net simulation model. It is equipped with a deadlock detection and recovery function as well as an automatic error check function. In addition, the software supports various enabling functions and distribution functions and provides various statistics for the performance measures of interests pertaining to the system. We expect the new software will be used in a wide number of applications including computer, communication and manufacturing systems.
