This paper develops a sliding mode fault tolerant control scheme based on an LPV system representation of the plant. The scheme involves a control allocation component, which is capable of fully utilizing the available actuators in the face of actuator faults. In this paper, information about the actuator faults is assumed not to be available and therefore a fixed control allocation structure is utilised...
Carrier mobilities in polymeric insulators strongly depend on the morphology of the system. In this study, in order to achieve a comprehensive understanding of hole transfer in PE, we evaluate the hole mobility in amorphous polyethylene (PE) without any ad hoc parameters. We developed a multi-scale computational approach that consists of molecular dynamics simulations, quantum chemical calculations,...
The TCP/IP architecture was consolidated as a standard to the distributed systems. However, there are several researches and discussions about alternatives to the evolution of this architecture and, in this study area, this work presents the Title Model to contribute with the application needs support by the cross layer ontology use and the horizontal addressing, in a next generation Internet. For...
The utterance `She is a bulldozer' is not interpreted by a person to refer to a piece of construction equipment but to mean something like `She is powerful'. Thus, interpretations of language are affected by contexts. This phenomenon does not only apply to metaphor. According to `Metaphors We Live By' (Lakoff and Johnson), our ordinary conceptual system, in terms of which we both think and act, is...
In this study, we present a computational model of a car driver's cognitive process and eye movement in relation to risk evaluation for greater safe driving assistance. The model status is mainly determined by visual inputs. In simulations, we reconstructed and predicted the driver eye movements while driving using an environmental risk calculation model, and compared them to the eye movements of...
Non-uniform memory access (NUMA) systems, where each processor has its own memory, have been popular platform in high-end computing. While some early studies had reported that a flat-MPI programming model outperformed an OpenMP/MPI hybrid programming model on SMP clusters, the hybrid of a shared-memory, thread-based programming and a distributed-memory, message passing programming is considered to...
In this paper, we propose the automatic composition system based on genetic algorithm and N-gram model. In the proposed system, the tone and the length of sounds are expressed in a form of gene, and some melodies are generated by genetic algorithm. In this system, the fitness of the gene is calculated based on (a) transition of rhythm, (b) transition of tone, (c) transition of tone and length, (d)...
