  • Unsteady thermal processes in storage containers with spent nuclear fuel were modeled. The daily fluctuations of outer ambient temperatures were taken into account. The modeling approach, which is based on the solving of conjugate and inverse heat transfer problems, was verified by comparison of measured and calculated temperatures in outer channels. The time delays in the reaching of maximal temperatures for each spent fuel assembly were calculated. Results of numerical investigations show that daily fluctuation of outer temperatures does not have a large influence on the maximal temperatures of stored spent fuel, so that fluctuation can be neglected and only daily average temperature should be considered for safety estimation using the "best estimation" approach.

  • A singular value decomposition (SVD) pseudo-inversion method has been applied to the image reconstruction from projections. This approach is relatively unknown and differs from conventionally used reconstructioll methods such as the Foxier convolution and iterative techniques. In this paper, two SVD pseudo-inversion methods have been discussed for the search of optimum reconstruction and restoration, one using truncated inverse filtering, the other scalar Wiener filtering. These methods partly overcome the ill-conditioned nature of restoration problems by trading off between noise and signal quality. To test the SVD pseudo-inversion method, simulations were performed from projection data obtained from a phantom using truncated inversefiltering. The results are presented together with some limitations particular to the applications of the method to the general class of 3-D image reconstruction and restoration.

  • A manipulator system that needs significantly large workspace volume and high payload capacity has greater link flexibility than typical industrial robots and teleoperators. If link flexibility is significant, position control of the manipulator's end-effector exhibits the nonminimum phase, noncollocated, and flexible structure system control problems. This paper addresses inverse dynamic trajectory planning issues of a flexible manipulator. The inverse dynamic equation of a flexible manipulator was solved in the time domain. By dividing the inverse system equation into the causal part and the anticausal part, the inverse dynamic method calculates the feedforward torque and the trajectories of all state variables that do not excite structural vibrations for a given end-point trajectory. Through simulation and experiment with a single-Unk flexible manipulator, the effectiveness of the inverse dynamic method has been demonstrated.

  • The nonuniqueness of a mathematically rigorous solution to 2-dimensional inverse scattering problems is explained in a limiting view of the numerical calculations based on the spectral-domain moment method. It is illustrated that its theoretical uniqueness cannot be assured even by performing additional measurements of the scattered fields not only along multiple lines but also with angular/frequency-diversities. In a real situation, however, computational error and measurement noise are inevitable. Those limitations render it meaningless to controvert the existence of a theoretically rigorous solution. Hence the most practical issue is how to remedy the instability of its practically approximate solution.

  • In this paper, a study of damage measures for truss structures using the Extended Projection filter theory is presented. Many researchers are interested in inverse problems and one of solution procedures for inverse problems that are very effective is the approach using the filtering algorithm in conjunction with numerical solution methods. In this paper, the projection filtering in conjunction with structural analysis is applied to the identification of damages in truss structures. And, the effectiveness of proposed method is verified through the numerical examples of a free vibrating structure.

  • In this study, the basic motor control system had been investigated. The controller for this study consists of two main parts, a feedforward controller part and a feedback controller part. Each part will deals with different control problems. The feedback controller deals with robustness and stability, while the feedforward controller deals with response speed. The feedforward controller, used to solve the tracking control problem, is adaptable. To make such a tracking perfect, an adaptive law based on Feedback Error Learning (FEL) is designed so that the feedforward controller becomes an inverse system of the controlled plant. The novelty of FEL method lies in its use of feedback error as a teaching signal for learning the inverse model. The theory in $H^{\infty}$-Control is selected to be applied in the feedback part to guarantee the stability and solve the robust stabilization problems. The simulation of each individual part and the integrated one are taken to clarify the study.

  • This paper studies a computational iterative method to find accurate approximations for the inverse of real or complex matrices. The analysis of convergence reveals that the method reaches seventh-order convergence. Numerical results including the comparison with different existing methods in the literature will also be considered to manifest its superiority in different types of problems.

  • We discuss a neural network solver for the inverse optimization problem. The problem is that find functional relations between input and output data, which are include defects. Finding the relations, predictions of the defect parts are also required. The part of finding the defects in the input data is an inverse problem . We consider the meanings to solve the problem on the neural network system at first. Next, we consider the network structure of the system, the learning scheme of the network, and at last, examine the precision on the numerical calculations. In the paper, we proposed the high-precision learning method for plural three-layer neural network system that is series-connect...

  • We consider the inverse problem of the identification of a piecewise-constant conductivity in a bar given the extra information of the heat flux through one end of the bar. Our theoretical results show that such an identification is unique. This approach utilizes a "layer peeling" argument. A computational algorithm based on this method is proposed and implemented. The advantage of this algorithm is that it requires only 3D minimizations irrespective of the number of the unknown discontinuities. Its numerical effectiveness is investigated for several conductivities.

  • In this paper we consider the inverse minimum flow (ImF) problem, where lower and upper bounds for the flow must be changed as little as possible so that a given feasible flow becomes a minimum flow. A linear time and space method to decide if the problem has solution is presented. Strongly and weakly polynomial algorithms for solving the ImF problem are proposed. Some particular cases are studied and a numerical example is given.
