Even though a lot of efforts have been devoted to evaluate welding residual stress characteristics of nuclear components, from the view point of accuracy, there are still some arguments in application of engineering estimation schemes. In this paper, three-dimensional finite element analyses (FEA) were carried out to predict residual stress distributions in butt welds of a typical surge line piping. Mesh optimization was conducted and subsequent analysis results such as the axial and hoop stress components along the weld center line and inner wall. Moreover, alternative evaluation was conducted by using three representative equations and their results were compared to those of FEA. Thereby, key parameters affecting to temperature profiles and residual stress distributions were derived as well as an optimum engineering estimation scheme was recommended.

The problem of establishing the servo system to reach the desired location keeping all features in the field of view and following a straight line is considered. In addition, robustness of camera calibration parameters is considered in this paper. The proposed approach is based on switching from position-based visual servoing (PBVS) to image-based visual servoing (IBVS) and allows the camera path to follow a straight line. To achieve the objective, a pose estimation method is required; the camera's target pose is estimated from the obtained images without the knowledge of the object. A switched control law moves the camera equipped to a robot end-effector near the desired location following a straight line in Cartesian space and then positions it to the desired pose with robustness to camera calibration error. Finally simulation results show the feasibility of the proposed visual servoing technique.

A fast stereo algorithm for 3D depth estimation is presented. We propose an on-line stereo matching technique, by which the flows of stereo image signals are dynamically controlled to satisfy the matching condition of intensity functionals. The disparity is rapidly estimated from the control of. the signal flows and 3D depth is determined from the disparity.

It has been recognized as important subject by users that PID-Controllers widely used in industrial processes must be well-tuned, In this paper, We present an automatic tuning method for PID-Controllers which is based on discrete parameter estimation and application of conventional tuning-rules. The method is easy to implement on microprocessor because critical values are obtained by the mathematical computation. Also, it permits quick on-line tuning. Simulation results show that most processes are well tuned by the suggested tuning method in this paper.

본 논문에서는 새로운 신경 회로망 유도 전동기 속도 추정 방법을 제안하고, 추정된 속도를 이용하여 속도 센서리스 벡터 제어를 구현한다. 제안된 신경 회로망 속도 추정 방법은 정상 상태뿐 아니라 과도 상태에서도 정확한 속도를 추정한다. 또한 off-line에 의해 사전 학습을 필요로 하지 않고, 유도 전동기의 구동과 동시에 on-line 학습을 통하여 속도를 실시간으로 추정함으로써 구현이 용이하다. 디지털 시뮬레이션과 2.2kW 유도 전동기 시스템을 이용한 실험을 통하여 제안된 알고리즘의 효용성과 성능을 입증한다.

Generally estimation of driving direction uses the way which uses lane detection and vanishing point in autonomous-driving system. Especially we use Sub-window for decreasing Process time when we detect lane, but fixed sub-window can not detect lane because of some factors in road image. So we suggest algorithm using one-dimension line scan method to detect an exact position of lane.

The acoustic phenomena in the actual sound systems involve a variety of compound problems. In this paper, the well-known Bayes' theorem is first employed and expanded into orthonormal and non-orthonomal series forms matched to the digital processing of lower and higher order statistical informations and the noisy observations. Proposed on-line algorithms of digital filter type are applied to the actual state estimation for a reverberation characteristics in a room under contamination of background noises.

In the laser surface hardening process the geometrical parameters, especially the depth, of the hardened layer are utilized to assess the integrity of the hardening layer quality. Monitoring of this geometrical parameter ofr on-line process control as well as for on-line quality evaluation, however, is an extremely difficult problem because the hardening layer is formed beneath a material surface. Moreover, the uncertainties in monitoring the depth can be raised by the inevitable use of a surface coating to enhance the processing efficiency and the insufficient knowledge on the effects of coating materials and its thicknesses. The paper describes the extimation results using neural network to estimate the hardening layer depth from measured surface temperanture and process variables (laser beam power and feeding velocity) under various situations. To evaluate the effec- tiveness of the measured temperature in estimating the harding layer depth, estimation was performed with or without temperature informations. Also to investigate the effects of coating thickness variations in the real industry situations, in which the coating thickness cannot be controlled uniform with good precision, estimation was done over only uniformly coated specimen or various thickness-coated specimens. A series of hardening experiments were performed to find the relationships between the hardening layer depth, temperature and process variables. The estimation results show the temperature informations greatly improve the estimation accuracy over various thickness-coated specimens.

The color information in an image changes as the illuminant condition varies. The mechanism to find canonical color of an object by estimating illumination color in an image is generally referred as color constancy. In color constancy, computing robust and precise dichromatic line is most important to estimate illumination chromaticity. In this paper, a novel approach to estimate the color of a single illuminant for noisy and micro-textured images is introduced. An accurate dichromatic line is found by using Dichromatic Line Space (DLS), proposed in this paper. which has information about diffuse chromaticity and illumination chromaticity.

Continuous on-line monitoring of cell concentration and growth rate in aerobic batch fermentation process was carried out by analyzing the exhaust gas composition of tormentor with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. From the mass spectrometric analyses of major gaseous components, i.e. $N_2$, $O_2$, $CO_2$ and $H_2O$, and the material balance equations for oxygen and carbon dioxide, oxygen uptake rate (OUR) rind carbon dioxide evolution rate (CER) were instantaneously calculated using a computer (16-bit IBM PC-AT) interfaced to a quadrupole mass spectrometer. The calculated OUR and CER data were used for the estimation of cell concentration and growth rate of Candida utilis during batch culture. It was found that the cell concentration could be satisfactorily estimated from the data of OUR arid CER during the culture and this method could be successfully und for the continuous monitoring of cell growth and growth rate.
