The purpose of state tying is to reduce the number of models and to use relatively reliable output probability distributions. There are two approaches: one is top down clustering and the other is bottom up clustering. For seen data, the performance of bottom up approach is better than that of top down approach. In this paper, we propose a new clustering technique that can enhance the undertrained triphone clustering performance. The basic idea is to tie unreliable triphones before clustering. An unreliable triphone is the one that appears in the training data too infrequently to train the model accurately. We propose to use monophone distance to preprocess these unreliable triphones. It has been shown in a pilot experiment that the proposed method reduces the error rate significantly.

This paper is concerned with the design and application of an Electro-Rheological(ER) fluid damper to suppress the vibration of a rotor system. The system is flexible with a slender shaft and a thin disk, being supported by two ball bearings. In addition, to investigate the system performances also in the high speed range, the driving torque is made transmit through a speed increasing gear train. Along with the experiments, to predict and compare the ER damper effect, the rotor system is simulated as to its free and forced vibration characteristics by means of a finite element method code, which is assembled with the mathematical model of the designed ER damper.

In this paper, the problem of designing a feedback controller for a robotic manipulator, which is activated by a D.C. motor through a gear train and a flexible shaft or chain, is considered. When the response of the closed loop control system is relatively slow, a satisfactory controller may be designed as a PID controller. As the speed of the control system increases, however, the spring effect of the linkage becomes profound, and as a result, the transient response exhibits a substantial oscillation. To eliminate this oscillation, it is necessary to design the controller based on at least a fourth order system model. This, in turn, requires the feedback of the entire state variables. In practice, however, only the position of the manipulator and the velocity of the motor are readily measurable. The state variable reconstruction method or a state observer cannot be used because of the system nonlinearities such as the Coulomb frictions. In this study, an alternative controller, which is based on delayed feedback of the output variable only, is proposed, and a successful delayed feedback controller is designed and implemented on an actual experimental manipulator.

The pantograph-catenary system is one of important components for high-speed rail system that are powered electrically. Electrical power is delivered from a catenary structure to the train via a pantograph and thus it is very important to regulate the contact force between catenary and pantograph. Although a lot of research results for active pantograph have been reported, most of them have made an unrealistic assumption that the catenary displacement is constant with respect to the time. In this paper, we present a new pantograph model that regards the catenary displacement as an unknown disturbance input. Moreover, a disturbance observer based controller is proposed to remove the effect of disturbance, i.e., the catenary displacement variation. The computer simulation result shows that the substantial improvement in regulating the contact force can be achieved by the proposed controller.

This paper gives a description of the mode'ling and control of a single phase PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) converter for HEMU-400X(High-speed Electric Multiple Unit - 400 km/h experiment). The converter is part of a Auxiliary power unit supplied by the 25[kV], 60[Hz] overhead line. A model of the converter in a synchronously rotating reference frame of coordinates is used to develop a new type of control. The control system has separate controllers for the active and reactive current, permitting the free choice of the power factor. This paper proposes a new control method of PWM converter for Auxiliary power unit.

Numerical damage assessment of Van train station building consisting of three RC blocks due to 2011 Van Earthquakes by nonlinear dynamic analysis is presented. The structural model is created with rigid-end offsets and plastic hinges for nonlinear analysis. Rigid-end offsets are considered for connection areas and proposed for wall-supported elements. In wall-supported elements, walls take place in a limited part of the columns. Nonlinear dynamic analysis of the building with and without rigid-end offsets is performed by using real earthquake records and results are compared. The results show that rigid-end offsets have significant effects on the seismic behavior of the structures.

Submarine collisions is one of the major hazardous factor for Submerged Floating Railway Tunnel (SFRT) and this study presents the safety evaluation for submarine collision to SFRT by using theoretical approach. Simplified method to evaluate the collision safety of SFRT was proposed based on the beam on elastic foundation theory. Firstly, the time history load function for submarine collision was obtained by using one-degree-of-freedom vibration model. Then, the equivalent mass and stiffness of the structure were calculated, and the collision responses of SFRT were evaluated. Finite element analysis was conducted to verify the proposed equations, and it can be found that the collision responses, such as deflection, and acceleration, agreed well with the proposed equations. Finally, derailment condition for high speed train in SFRT due to submarine collision was proposed.

This study concerned on the critical speed due to hunting and snake motion train to ensure the stability. First, the critical speed was calculated by using a numerical model, and calculated the critical speed of the vehicle through the simulation with the use of ADAMS/RAII. Also, the snake motion was confirmed through a modal analysis and running simulation. The calculated results, show that the rail irregularity becomes the influential factors of the stability since it is the direct source of excitation of the vehicle.

In this paper, we propose a new training algorithm for improving pattern classification performance of ART neural network. The proposed train algorithm restricts unnecessary cluster generation and transition, applies the location extraction algorithm, and operates the reset system based on the agreement between the present learning pattern and the initial pattern. As a result, repetitive input of a pattern does not generate a new cluster and mis-recognition rate decreases.

In this study, the crashworthiness of KHST has been evaluated by analysing a nonlinear spring/bar-damper-mass model of 1-dimensional collision dynamics. The numerical results show that KHST can easily absorb kinetic energy at lower impact force and acceleration in heavy collisions, when compared with KTX. Also, in a Light collision like a traint-to-train accident at lower speed under 8 kph, the carbody and components of KHST can be protected without any damage except the energy absorbing tube to be replaced easily. However, KTX may be much damaged in the light collision because there is no energy absorbing tube. In conclusion, the crashworthy performance of KHST has been much improved than that of KTX, although there are something to be improved for a better crashworthy performance
