This paper describes the scheme of sliding mode control (SMC) to adopt the conventional slip frequency vector drives. The purpose of sliding mode control is to achieve an accurate, robustness of response for ac servomotor speed control. A sliding mode control design method is proposed for a speed control of an induction servomotor. The control law is composed of the variable structure component and the suppressed coefficients to suppress load disturbance and variation of external parameters. The proposed control scheme is simulated by the computer which is installed in an ideal ac servomotor. The simulation results show that the proposed design method has robustness and accuracy in the speed response by adjusting the suppressed coefficients for load disturbance and the motor mechanical parameter variation.

A robust control design scheme using well-developed SISO techniques is proposed for maglev vehicles that are inherently unstable MIMO systems. The proposed separate control method has basically two control loops: a stabilizing loop by a pole-placement technique, and a performance loop using a novel optimal LQ loop-shaping technique. This paper shows that the coupling terms involved in maglev vehicles with multimagnets should not be neglected but compensated for their stability and performance robustness. The robustness properties of the proposed control system are then evaluated under variations of vehicle masses and air gaps through a computer simulation. This paper also describes the reason why the proposed control technique can be suggested as a tool using only SISO techniques in controlling unstable MIMO systems such as maglev vehicles.

Distance dynamics model is an excellent model for uncovering the community structure of a complex network. However, the model has poor robustness. To improve the robustness, we design an enhanced distance dynamics model based on Ego-Leader and propose a corresponding community detection algorithm, called E-Attractor. The main contributions of E-Attractor are as follows. First, to get rid of sensitive parameter ${\lambda}$, Ego-Leader is introduced into the distance dynamics model to determine the influence of an exclusive neighbor on the distance. Second, based on top-k Ego-Leader, we design an enhanced distance dynamics model. In contrast to the traditional model, enhanced model has better robustness for all networks. Extensive experiments show that E-Attractor has good performance relative to several state-of-the-art algorithms.

A nonlinear robust guidance law is designed for missiles against a maneuvering target by incorporating sliding-mode and optimal control theories based on the state dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) to achieve robustness against target accelerations. The guidance law is derived based on three-dimensional nonlinear engagement kinematics and its robustness against disturbances is proved by the second method of Lyapunov. A new switching surface is considered in the sliding-mode control design. The proposed guidance law requires the maximum value of the target maneuver, and therefore opposed to the conventional augmented proportional navigation guidance (APNG) law, complete information about the target maneuver is not necessary, and hence it is simple to implement in practical applications. Considering different types of target maneuvers, several scenario simulations are performed. Simulation results confirm that the proposed guidance law has much better robustness, faster convergence, and smaller final time and control effort in comparison to the sliding-mode guidance (SMG) and APNG laws.

The disturbance observer (DOB) has been widely utilized for high precision/speed motion control applications. However, it still lacks the analysis for the robustness and performance brought by using DOB. This paper proposes the robustness measure of DOB and reveals the relationships between the disturbance rejection performance and the order/time constant of a Q filter in DOB. Additionally, we propose six guidelines for the design of Q filter and show their validity through the experiments for DVD systems.

An optimal robust design methodology has been developed to minimize the warpage in a decorating panel of monitor molded by the plastic injection. For the associated methodology, the Taguchi's Design Of Experiment (DOE) based on orthogonal arrays and Signal-to-Noise Ratio is combined with commercial simulation tools f3r injection molding. An optimal robust design solution is statistically resulted from the computational simulation. The related experiment was done for evaluations of the warpage in the decorating panel part of monitor. This research showed that the warpage under the applied optimal design conditions was comparatively reduced.

Current trend of design technologies shows engineers to objectify or automate the given decision-making process. The numerical optimization is an example of such technologies. However, in numerical optimization, the uncertainties are uncontrollable to efficiently objectify or automate the process. To better manage these uncertainties, Taguchi method, reliability-based optimization and robust optimization are being used. To obtain the target performance with the maximum robustness is the main functional requirement of a mechanical system. In this research, the robust design strategy is developed based on the DACE and the global optimization approaches. The DACE modeling, known as the one of Kriging interpolation, is introduced to obtain the surrogate approximation model of the system. The robustness is determined by the DACE model to reduce the real function calculations. The simulated annealing algorithm of global optimization methods is adopted to determine the global robust design of a surrogated model. The mathematical problems and the MEMS design problem are investigated to show the validity of the proposed method.

In the study, a design methodology for robust minimization of a warpage in injection-molded part is presented. Taguchi's parameter design method is integrated with a computer simulation tool for injection molding to search for best design with robustness against the process variability by noises. The proposed methodology is based on a two-stage process: (1) reducing a warpage in the part by optimizing the part geometry including the layout and size of ribs, and (2) additionally minimizing the warpage by optimizing process conditions. An example is used to illustrate the usefulness of the design methodology.

Engineering design can be viewed as a decision making process, which involves the nonlinear tradeoffs task among the multiple conflicting attributes and considers the robustness of design. In order to obtain best engineering design, methodology for accurate assessment of his/her preference about the multiple attributes is required. Conventionally, intuitive procedures based on lottery questions are used to elicit the designer's preference structure: however, they can lead to inconsistent and inexact preference results due to the rank reversal problems derived from the designer's big cognitive burden. In this paper, alternatively, a design methodology based on multiattribute utility function through the pairwise comparison among alternatives is presented. The proposed procedure is applied to an actual injection mold design with the aid of the CAE simulation and the result is discussed.

강건최적설계 분야에서 목적함수의 강건성은 목적함수의 변화가 둔감한 해를 강조한다. 일반적으로 목적함수의 강건성은 설계변수나 파라미터에 대한 목적함수의 변동을 줄임으로써 달성할 수 있다. 하지만, 기존의 방법들에서는 변동에 둔감한 목적을 달성하기 위해 목적함수의 값이 희생되는 경우가 있다. 또한, 설계변수의 수가 증가할수록 비선형계획법을 이용한 강건최적설계의 수치적 계산비용은 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 상한함수를 사용한 새로운 강건성지수와 비선형계획법에서의 강건최적설계 방법을 제안한다. 또한, 제안한 방법의 효율성을 향상시키기 위하여 선형화된 함수의 상한 값을 이용한 방법도 소개한다. 이를 다양한 수학예제에 적용하고 기존의 강건성지수와 수치적 성능 비교를 통해 제안한 방법의 유용성을 검증한다. 제안한 강건성지수는 목적함수의 성능에 손실이 발생하지 않으며 효율성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있다.
