The objective of this study is to improve a readily existing, on-off controlled pneumatic actuation system. The study primarily focused on modeling of that system. A nonlinear model and a linear model are built. The nonlinear modeling is formed by applying parameter identification based optimization. And, linear modeling is based on linear time invariant system fitting by using system identification techniques and linearization. Afterwards, different PWM schemes are studied to cascade with the identified models. And a hybrid PWM scheme is introduced to the open loop model. A discrete position controller is designed on that hybrid PWM scheme and identified plant model showing the best performance. Success of the controller is also tested for an artificial torque disturbance which is possible to act on the load shaft during its operation.
Both optical and electrical parameters of thin film layers depend highly on their thickness. In most cases measurement of thickness distribution is complicated and takes a long time, consequently there is a need for a...

Laser material interaction involved in laser-assisted microscale packaging is endowed with rapid and coupled optical, mechanical, and thermal processes. In-depth understanding of the underlying physics in these processes is instrumental for process optimization and functionality and dependability design of systems. This work is focused on the atomistic modeling of laser material interaction, particularly about the phase change, nanoparticle formation, stress generation and propagation, and formation and revolution of sub-surface structural damages. Large-scale parallel molecular dynamics simulation is conducted to model over 200 millions of atoms. The result reveals no clear interface when phase change occurs, but a transition region where the solid and liquid structures co-exist. The solid-liquid interface is found to move with a velocity up to the local sound speed. A vapor and droplet mixture is ejected from the surface with a high speed. The simulation reveals that nanoparticles originate from an intense vapor phase explosion after laser heating. The emerging time of larger particles is much later than that associated with smaller clusters. The resulting nanoparticles are characterized with a gas-like structure while characteristics of liquid are also preserved to a certain degree. In laser-assisted surface nanoscale structuring, visible sub-surface nanoscale structural damages are observed in the direction of 45 degrees with respect to the laser incident direction. Detailed study of the lattice structure reveals atomic dislocation in the damaged regions. Both temporary and permanent structural damages are observed in the material.

Active RC circuit model with a piecewise-linear (PWL) voltage-controlled voltage source (VCVS) and linear current-controlled voltage source (CCVS) for the second-order autonomous dynamical system realization is proposed. The main advantage of this equivalent circuit is simple relation between the state model parameters and their corresponding circuit parameters, which leads also to simple design formulas.
