The paper deals with the LPV systems in respect to fault detection and isolation. The FPRG method is extended to use with affine LPV system where one could guarantee the disturbance attenuation. The paper presents a method for the robust detection filter design based on geometric approach for Linear Parameter Varying systems. The filter is using the general Fundamental Problem in Residual Generation method in presence of external noise, while disturbance decoupling from failure signitures in LPV system is not possible. The disturbance attenuation is achieved with induced L2 norm minimization concepts for LPV model class. A numerical example is solved to demonstrate the effectiveness of robust LPV fault detection filter.

For mono-variable autopilots, there are moments of time when the command of the rudder to control the yaw angle has a negative influence on roll oscillations, being a supplemental task for the roll stabilization controller. It is desirable to avoid this situation instead of trying to correct it. A fuzzy rudder-roll damping (FRRD) system is proposed, which modifies the autopilot commands, so that roll damping effects to be obtained, with small rudder angle and rudder rate values. The FRRD system can be used with any SISO autopilot with slow steering machine and with- or without other roll controller

The global and local stability of process systems in generalized Lotka-Volterra form is studied in this paper using entropy-like and quadratic Lyapunov function candidates. The global stability check for LV models is performed by solving an LMI for a diagonal positive semi-definite matrix using singular perturbation technique. It is shown that a quadratic Lyapunov function can also be determined by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). In addition, the quadratic stability neighborhood is convex in the space of the quasi-monomials and can be estimated by computing its corner points using LMIs. Furthermore, it is proved that quadratic stability with a diagonal weighting matrix enables to construct a dissipative-Hamiltonian description of the system. The developed methods are illustrated on the model of a continuously stirred tank reactor with a nonlinear reaction system.

This document presents a design methodology for building applications based on the Universal Numerical control (UNC) reference architecture based on open systems developed on previous research works. UNC architecture map the openness concept to the needs of countries in development which justification emerges from the need of acquiring low cost CNC technology and making retrofit of manual machine tool. The methodology discusses guidelines for the design documentation and mainly addresses the kind of information needed using design notations such as UML. The project was developed under a collaboration agreement between ITESM in Mexico and the Santa Catarina University in Brazil.

We consider the problem of scheduling heterogeneous batch processor under the conditions non-identical job sizes, dynamic job arrivals and incompatible job families. The problem studied in this paper is motivated by heat-treatment operations in the pre-casting stage of steel casting manufacturing. We proposed a few heuristic algorithms with maximizing the average utilization of batch processors as scheduling objective. From the computational experiments carried out, it appears that all the proposed heuristics are yielding very close to the optimum (estimated optimum) average utilization of the batch processors. Further, we carried out a few simple sensitivity analyses. From sensitivity analysis, in general, it appears that there is an influence on the performance of the proposed heuristic algorithms when the input parameter changes. The influence observed is further verified statistically. Finally, it is observed that with respect to the scheduling objective, the choice of the best algorithm(s) do not significantly affected due to changes in the parameters considered.

In this paper, a high precision polishing robot with a learning-based hybrid position/force controller is proposed for polishing PET (poly ethylene terephthalate) bottle molds. In polishing, the position control system loosely interferes with the force control system in suitable directions. The shape of a mounted abrasive tool, attached to the tip of a robot arm, is a ball-end type. When a PET bottle mold with curved surface is polished, not only the orientation of the mounted abrasive tool is fixed but also its revolution is locked. The motion of the mounted abrasive tool is feedforwardly controlled based on an initial trajectory calculated in advance. The trajectory is generated from cutter location data constituted from a CAM system. The trajectory is modified through the actual polishing processes so that the total force error in polishing becomes smaller. The surface is polished by a polishing force acting between the mold and the abrasive tool. The polishing force is assumed to be considered as a composite force of the contact and kinetic friction forces, in which the friction consists of Coulomb and viscous frictions. A few polishing experiments are conducted to show that the proposed system is effective for obtaining a polishing surface as achieved by skilled workers.

There is a growing interest in applications of embedded and integrated sensors to ensure the reliability of structural components. The results of a panel discussion to elucidate future directions and key issues are presented. Views of three organizations, with different missions and objectives, on needs and opportunities are first presented, followed by a summary of general audience discussion. Emphasis is placed on identifying the commonalities and differences in those needs and opportunities.

Shortened product life-cycles decreases the output rate of manufacturing systems as the introduction of new products into the manufacturing system becomes more frequent. Improvements of the development process of manufacturing systems are needed to increase the output. Information handling and development of control programs based on information reuse are two of the most important improvement areas. These areas, among other things, can be a support for offline verification, which promises to directly increase the output rate due to shortening product introduction times. This paper deals with two problems of the many connected to enabling offline verification. First, a general control program structure, adapted to information reuse, is needed and secondly, the information necessary to generate the control programs needs to be defined. A method is proposed where information from the mechanical design of a cell, from the product, and from manual simulation are reused and automatically converted into control programs that schedule the work in a collision-free, deadlock-free and time-optimized way. The correctness of the generated programs is guaranteed by use of formal methods, simulation and an uncorrupted conversion of specifications into control programs.
