Spacecraft attitude estimation using the nonlinear unscented filter is addressed to fully utilize capabilities of the unscented transformation. To release significant computational load, an efficient technique is proposed by reasonably removing correlation between random variables. This modification introduces considerable reduction of sigma points and computational burden in matrix square-root calculation for most nonlinear systems. Unscented filter technique makes use of a set of sample points to predict mean and covariance. The general QUEST(QUaternion ESTimator) algorithm preserves explicitly the quaternion normalization, whereas extended Kalman filter(EKF) implicitly obeys the constraint. For spacecraft attitude estimation based on quaternion, an approach to computing quaternion means from sampled quaternions with guarantee of the quaternion norm constraint is introduced applying a constrained optimization technique. Finally, the performance of the new approach is demonstrated using a star tracker and rate-gyro measurements.

To investigate the behaviour of the embankment on very soft foundation reinforced geotex- files,the laboratory model test in order to analyze the elementary effects of geotextile reinfor- cement and the finite element program analyzing the stresses and deformations characteristics was carried out. A two-dimensional nonlinear finite element program called GEOTEXT(a modification of ISBILD) for the static analysis of embankment on very soft foundation reinforced geotextiles has been developed. Both linear and nonlinear hyperbolic stress-strain soil models are inclu- ded, and incremental and stage construction can be simulated. However, the program GEO- TEXT is not developed herein as an adaptable design tool for practicing engineer. It was found that the geotextile reinforcement significantly reduced the shear stresses in the foundation and decreased the vertical differential settlements at the top of the embank- ment. This influence was more pronounced as the tensile strength of the geotextile was increased.

Derivation of TSK fuzzy model from nonlinear differential equation is fundamental issue in the field of theoretical fuzzy control. The method which does not yield affine local differential equations at off-equilibrium points is proposed in this paper. A prototype TSK fuzzy model which has triangular membership functions for linguistic terms of the antecedent part is derived systematically. And then GA is used to modify the membership functions optimally. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed method.

This paper presents a numerical model for simulating the nonlinear response of reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls subject to cyclic loadings. The material behavior of cracked concrete is described by an orthotropic constitutive relation with tension-stiffening and compression softening effects defining equivalent uniaxial stress-strain relation in the axes of orthotropy. Especially in making analytical predictions for inelastic behaviors of RC walls under reversed cyclic loading, some influencing factors inducing the material nonlinearities have been considered. A simple hysteretic stress-strain relation of concrete, which crosses the tension-compression region, is defined. Modification of the hysteretic stress-strain relation of steel is also introduced to reflect a pinching effect depending on the shear span ratio and to represent an average stress distribution in a cracked RC element, respectively. To assess the applicability of the constitutive model for RC element, analytical results are compared with idealized shear panel and shear wall test results under monotonic and cyclic shear loadings.

A synthesis of fuzzy variable structure control is proposed to design a high-angle-of-attack flight system for a modification version of the F-18 aircraft. The knowledge of the proportional, integral, and derivative control is combined into the fuzzy control that addresses both the highly nonlinear aerodynamic characteristics of elevators and the control limit of thrust vectoring nozzles. A simple gain scheduling method with multi-layered fuzzy rules is adopted to obtain an appropriate blend of elevator and thrust vectoring commands in the wide operating range. Improving the computational efficiency, an accelerated kernel for on-line fuzzy reasoning is also proposed. The resulting control system achieves the good flying quantities during a high-angle-of- attack excursion. Thus the fuzzy logic can afford the control engineer a flexible means of deriving effective control laws in the nonlinear flight regime.

In the proposed paper, a new algorithm based on Nonlinear Feedback Shift Register (NLFSR) and modified RC4A (Rivest Cipher 4A) cipher is introduced. NLFSR is used for image pixel scrambling while modified RC4A algorithm is used for pixel substitution. NLFSR used in this algorithm is of order 27 with maximum period 2^27-1 which was found using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), a searching method. Modified RC4A algorithm is the modification of RC4A and is modified by introducing non-linear rotation operator in the Key Scheduling Algorithm (KSA) of RC4A cipher. Analysis of occlusion attack (up to 62.5% pixels), noise (salt and pepper, Poisson) attack and key sensitivity are performed to assess the concreteness of the proposed method. Also, some statistical and security analyses are evaluated on various images of different size to empirically assess the robustness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper auto-tuning scheme of weight function in the neural networks has been suggested by immune algorithm for nonlinear process. A number of structures of the neural networks are considered as learning methods for control system. A general view is provided that they are the special cases of either the membership functions or the modification of network structure in the neural networks. On the other hand, since the immune network system possesses a self organizing and distributed memory, it is thus adaptive to its external environment and allows a PDP (parallel distributed processing) network to complete patterns against the environmental situation. Also. It can provi..

A modified form of the integrated Michaelis-Menten equation would provide a useful means of evaluating enzyme kinetic parameters in nonlinear progress reaction with time. A slight modification of the Lineweaver-Burk form (and other variants) using for the velocity, the change in substrate concentration divided by time ($\={v}$), and for the velocity, the change in substrate for the time interval ($\={S}$), allows this linear reciprocal form to be used with negligible error even when as much as half of the substrate is utilized during the time interval.

In this paper, we introduce the modification of a generalized (Ψ, L)-weak contraction and we prove some coincidence point results for self-mappings G, T and S, and some fixed point results for some maps by using a (c)-comparison function and a comparison function in the sense of a b-metric space.

The relative degree one and weakly minimum-phase conditions have been major obstacles for passification of the given system. In this paper, a dynamic output feedback passifier which can remove the obstacles is presented. The proposed method does not require any modification of the given output except just adding a new term. Therefore, the scheme is more suitable for output feedback passification.
